"Don't understand?" Lin Chu sneered: "Duofu Inn and Delinfang, are you familiar with these two places?"
"Wha... what?" Upon hearing these two names, Zhang Dehai panicked immediately, and cold sweat began to flow from his forehead unknowingly.
He couldn't help but lift up his sleeve and wipe it, but he still wanted to fool him and stammered: "I'm humble, I still don't understand what the general means."
"Then let me make it clear to you!" Lin Chu said coldly: "In order to prevent the leakage of military information from the five previous secret orders, the general put imperceptible dark marks on them. As long as someone steals the contents of the secret orders, his hands will be destroyed. There will definitely be traces left on it!”
"After passing the order, I summoned the five people who came into contact with the secret order in the name of discussion. Later, I found that only you, Zhang Dehai, had dark traces of finger contamination on your tea cup!"
Hearing this, everyone present reacted, which completely showed that Zhang Dehai had peeked at the king's secret order.
This alone is already a capital crime, not to mention that he also passed the contents of the secret order to Lingguo.
At that moment, the sounds of swords being unsheathed were heard one after another, and the blades were all pointed at Zhang Dehai. Someone said angrily: "Zhang Dehai! It's useless for me to treat you as a colleague! I didn't expect that you would betray the king! Betray my country, Qin!"
Someone else shouted loudly: "It's not easy for our Military Aircraft Department to achieve its current status! We must destroy it at the hands of traitors!"
"General! This thief must be cut into pieces! Otherwise, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in the hearts of our brothers!"
"General please order..."
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation, and of course they had reason to be angry towards the traitors of the Qin Army, because this was a rat excrement that would ruin a pot of soup and would have a certain impact on the entire military aircraft department.
Especially some members of the Snow Clan. For them, the Military Aircraft Department is their second home. They are even more awed and grateful to Xiao Yuan. Now that something like this happened, how can they not be angry.
And Zhang Dehai, knowing that he had no way to defend himself, knelt down with a bang. Facing the cold blades around him, he was almost frightened out of his soul. His nose and tears also fell down: "General, have mercy on me, general, have mercy on me, I'm humble. I was just confused for a moment..."
"Shut up!" A member of the Snow Clan was furious, glaring, and asked for instructions again.
Lin Chu raised his hand, stopped everyone and said, "This thief has been lurking for many years and must be an important intelligence officer of the Ling Kingdom. He cannot die now and must be locked up in a secret cell first."
As he spoke, he also gestured to his two men.
The latter two understood and immediately stepped forward, one to the left and the other to the right, dragging Zhang Dehai away.
"General, have mercy on me, general, have mercy on me..." The pig-like cry gradually faded away until it disappeared.
At this time, everyone also sheathed their swords, but they still looked angry.
Someone looked worried: "General, a traitor has appeared at the military aircraft. Our trust in front of the king will be greatly reduced. What should we do?"
"It's all this thief's fault! He harmed our entire department!"
"Alas." Lin Chu also sighed deeply, forced himself to calm down, and looked at one person and said, "Hou Qing, Ling Guo Xizuo, who is secretly in contact with Zhang Dehai, has the line been cleared?"
Hou Qing was the person in charge of Huandi's intelligence when he attacked Huan. He had been transferred back to the capital the previous time. He was greatly commended by Xiao Yuan and awarded the title of viscount and the rank of fourth-grade general.
Don't underestimate military intelligence. They operate in the dark, wander around the edge of life and death, steal secrets, and cooperate with military operations. They play a vital role in a war. Therefore, their merits are not much different from those of generals on the battlefield. of.
When Hou Qing heard this, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "Return to the general, we have all been cleaned up, twenty-one people have been killed, and eight people have been captured alive, for a total of twenty-nine Lingguo people."
"Yes." Lin Chu nodded and said, "This should be a major line for the Ling Kingdom to lurk in Qinzhou. They will conduct strict interrogations on Zhang Dehai and his party members, hoping to pry out some more secrets."
"Yes!" Hou Qing accepted the order.
Lin Chu looked around for another week: "This incident should be taken as a warning. In the future, the Military Aircraft Department, whether on-staff or non-staff, must strictly review to prevent enemy infiltration."
"Understood!" Everyone shouted in unison.
"Hey, I will enter the palace right now and report to the king. Everyone should disperse." Lin Chu sighed again. Now, of course, his heart was full of worries.
In the afternoon, in the study room of Qin Palace.
A series of files on this matter have been submitted to Xiao Yuan's Wang case, and Lin Chuzheng was kneeling below respectfully.
After reading it, Xiao Yuan put the papers away, looked at Lin Chu and said, "Why are you still kneeling? Get up."
As a result, Lin Chu did not dare to move. He raised his buttocks and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, I have betrayed your Majesty's trust. I am ashamed of Your Majesty. Please be punished."
"Okay." Xiao Yuan frowned. As a military intelligence person, if you can infiltrate others, others will naturally do the same.
"My lord, I have no face to face the king." Lin Chu's eyes were slightly red, and his voice was already sour.
"Okay, this kind of thing will not happen again in the Military Aircraft Department from now on. This is the last time!"
"Yes, please keep this in mind!"
"Get up and talk." Xiao Yuan said, and then said: "This time, the information about a spy within our party was passed back by the brothers far away in Lingzhou?"
"Yes." Lin Chu stood up and stood respectfully below: "That brother's name is Pang Yu. We invested a lot of gold and silver and secretly cultivated many relationships. It took us two years to gain a firm foothold."
"Yes." Xiao Yuandao: "In this case, if Zhang Dehai continues to lurk without him, the consequences will be disastrous. Qinzhou's detailed work will not be easily cleansed. This is a great achievement. Be sure to record the file until he returns home." , I will personally commend you."
Lin Chu's face was filled with joy: "Your Majesty, if Pang Yu finds out, he will be so excited that he can't even sleep."
"If possible, I would like to say hello to him on behalf of my king. The Qin State will never forget these secret heroes." After Xiao Yuan finished speaking, he said with a slight worry: "After this incident happened, it won't be long before the Ling Kingdom On the other hand, news will be received. When Murong Hongye learns that Zhang Dehai and Xizuo's strongholds have been cleared, he must be suspicious. Pang Yu is still alive, so he may be in danger."
"Then, what does the king mean..." Lin Chu asked tentatively.
"From today on, let him lie dormant and not make any more moves to avoid suspicion. Tell him that saving his own life is the most important thing." Xiao Yuandao.
"This, yes, I will find a way to contact him secretly."
A few days later, the news spread back to Lingguo.
When he learned about this, Murong Hongye was furious. When he took office, he had made bold statements to completely dismantle the Qin army's military intelligence. Unexpectedly, his most important insider was exposed instead. This was like a slap in the face.
After looking around coldly for a week, he did not speak first.
There were a group of military intelligence officers standing below, including Pang Yu.
The secret confrontation between Murong Hongye and Lin Chu has just begun.
