Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2584 Humanity

  Xun Yu determined that from Hanoi, to Zhongmou, and to Youzhou, they were all infiltrated by spies of Huqi.

   Therefore, Xun Yu felt that before he wanted to deal with the affairs of the local officials, he had to catch those spies first. Otherwise, every move here will be passed on to Guanzhong.

   Xun Yu is not a serious anti-espionage talent, and he knows in his heart that most of the "anti-espionage" forces of Mr. Cao are not doing serious things.

  But this does not mean that Xun Yu will give up easily.

  Xun Yu believes that as long as everything is put into action, there must be traces.

   Then Xun Yu found a way to screen.

  The most obvious trace is naturally money.

  So here in Anyang, Xun Yu, in the name of Chen Qun, called together all the team that Chen Qun trusted, and started a thorough investigation, collecting some official files around, hoping to find some clues.

   Then, after a lot of screening, Xun Yu found...

   But what Xun Yu didn't expect was that the first person screened out was actually in Anyang.

  …o((⊙﹏⊙))o.…

  Lu Hong has always been very principled, work belongs to work, and private belongs to private.

Things at work have broken the sky. Everyone should reason with reason, and respond to leaders when they should respond. No matter how serious the conflict is, it is right and wrong. But if the conflict at work is extended to the private sphere, trying to achieve something that cannot be achieved through personal attacks For the purpose of suing others, Lu Hong is absolutely unbearable.

  That's right, Lu Hong didn't mention Xia Houyuan's name.

   Lu Hong doesn't hold any grudges about those little things, and he never brings his personal emotions to work.

   It's strange.

   After all, there are many things, only the first time and countless times.

   It was Xia Houyuan who frightened him last time, so what about next time?

  Who can guarantee whether the knife will stop next time?

   Danger must be nip in the bud!

  Of course, Lu Hong can't kill the guy who threatened him right now, but there is an old saying, don't be afraid of thieves... Bah, if you have a heart, it will be done!

  Lu Hong felt that this was Xia Houyuan's stupidity. If he was Xia Houyuan, he would either not do anything, or if he did, he would keep it. Wouldn't he be looking for trouble for himself?

  Lu Hong swore that he would never allow himself to suffer such humiliation again.

   Then, he must kill that general Baidi.

  Even if you can’t do it now, then wait, look for opportunities, and finally kill with one blow.

   Similarly, before being attacked by Wang Hai, Lu Hong also remembered it in his heart. Don't look at calling brother with a smile now, and stabbing his waist at that time will also be merciless.

  Wang Hai's sneak attack also sounded the alarm for Lu Hong. Lu Hong realized that he had a very serious problem, that is, those of his subordinates were poor in terms of combat effectiveness and quick reaction ability.

   If there is a similar situation again, if the other party really has the intention to kill, based on the behavior of these recruited rangers and libertines, can Lu Hong still live?

  The answer, obviously, is no.

  So, Lu Hong felt that he could no longer recruit those wastes, and he had to find some other people to protect himself.

  But with Lu Hong’s current status, not to mention recruiting those "skilled people", even if he really meets some "skilled people", those "skilled people" may not be able to take a fancy to him.

  However, just like what Wang Hai said, it doesn’t matter if you don’t care about your status, as long as you care about money.

  If you have money, you can have "masters". Well, maybe it is possible to find some "masters". Otherwise, if you want to find some rangers for cheap, even if there are a lot of people, what is the use?

  Where is the "High Man" located?

  Lu Hong has some headaches, but this matter is not the point now, the point is to make money first.

  Well, wrong, get people first.

   After dealing with people, there will naturally be money.

  Just handing in the report is just a temporary measure, and some specific things still need to be done.

  Lu Hong is very aware of the psychology of those big bosses above his head.

  Xun Yu, I look down on him at all. The reason why Xun Yu didn't show Lu Hong's face was that Lu Hong was promoted by Cao Cao. Because Lu Hong is not as smart as Guo Jia, so full of resourcefulness, he has an idea in a blink of an eye. If Lu Hong wants to plan something, he often needs to think quietly and alone, and then think for a long time, maybe even so there are flaws.

   But in turn, this has also become Lu Hong's advantage. Xun Yu thinks that he can see Lu Hong clearly, and he can control Lu Hong, but when the affairs are complicated and he doesn't have so much time to think about it, can he still see clearly and fully control him?

  As for Cao Cao, Cao Cao actually doesn't care about Lu Hong.

   Don't look at Cao Cao, who seems to be very kind every time they meet, but Lu Hong knows that it is Boss Cao's disguise. Boss Cao is very kind to every courtier on the surface. Whoever is by his side, he will deliberately belittle the members of the Cao family and Xiahou family, and then say some "outsider" words of praise.

  Although it sounds cool, in fact, Lao Cao still trusts the Cao family Xiahou who he scolds every day, just like that **** general Baidi.

so…

   Lu Hong pondered.

  Lu Hong knew that he was not smart, so he worked hard.

   Try to climb up.

He looked up, thinking that the top was ventilated, unobstructed, and beautiful, but after he climbed a little bit, he realized that there was actually something stuck in the sky above him, and he couldn't get up. go.

   No matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't make it.

  He was confused and confused, and now he wants to understand.

  He must find some "masters", including those who protect him, and also guys like Wang Hai.

  Of course it costs money to find a master, but what should I do if I have no money?

  『Pan's? ”Wang Hai widened his eyes, “Are you crazy? 』

  Zhongmou has two surnames, one is Ren and the other is Pan.

  『You know, we have to deliver something. Lu Hong said slowly, "If you don't hand it over to Mrs. Pan, should you hand it over to Mrs. Ren?" 』

  『Ren? Do you want to court death? 』Wang Hai laughed back angrily.

  Lu Hong nodded, "So, only Mrs. Pan. 』

"no. I mean..." Wang Hai scratched his head, "Why do you want to make it so big? Wouldn't it be enough to hand over some little guys to go up? 』

  『But I didn’t come before. Lu Hong shook his head and said, "Of course, I'm not important. The important thing is that Xun Lingjun didn't send anyone here before." 』

  Wang Hai was stunned for a moment.

"I said, if you want to do it, you are a veteran," Lu Hong pointed to the top, "but when it comes to understanding the above, I am a veteran...Zhongmu is a small place, so it's almost enough to hand it over to Pan's... 』

"why? ’ Wang Hai asked.

Lu Hong raised his head and looked into the distance, as if he was looking at something, or just remembering, "Sometimes the people above don't care how you did it... and don't particularly care about it." Low life and death, they only want the result they want, as for who gave this result, in fact, for them, it is not the point... nor can it be the point...』

  『Brother, you said that...』Wang Hai was silent for a while,『I really don’t understand...』

"hehe. 』Lu Hong smiled, and did not expose Wang Hai's stupidity. After all, pretending to be stupid will not cause conflicts, only when they are exposed.

  Wang Hai looked at Lu Hong, "Well, I don't know anything about this matter...I'm a big bastard, if it fails...Brother, you can do it..."

  Lu Hong smiled again, "I am also a fool, how can I do such a meticulous thing?" 』

"then you? ”Wang Hai stared.

  『In this world, there are always some smart people, aren’t they? Lu Hong laughed, "If a smart person finds some problems and can't get rid of them, will he try to get rid of the relationship? Will you think about reducing your own responsibility and shifting the responsibility to others? 』

  『Oh...』Wang Hai nodded,『So now, just find an unavoidable problem...but where is the problem? 』

  『Isn’t this ready-made? Lu Hong smiled and said firmly, "Sima Shi! 』

  …(〒︿〒)…

Although Xu County has started to work, many places are still on vacation, especially in counties and counties. The arrangement of Muxiu is often handled according to the application needs of officials. The rest time will be longer.

  Wang Ming still has some rest period left, so he plans to drop by to find Cai Yu.

Since he handed over Yuzhang who was in contact with him, he has basically not been in charge of some related spy work, but Cai Yu is his friend after all, and he used to get along with Yuan Shao for a long time, so he Before returning to Yuzhou this time, he made a special detour to Anyang County, wanting to meet Cai Yu.

According to the formal code of espionage, such as the "basic common sense" of keyboard spies of later generations, when spies operate in hostile areas, it is best to use a single line of vertical activities, and horizontal connections cannot occur. Although such espionage activities are relatively inefficient, they are still It is guaranteed that when a spy is arrested, he will not be caught immediately.

   It's just a pity that Wang Ming and Cai Yu are not long-term trained spies at all, they rely more on the convenience of their status to act.

  Because there was no better means of contact and it was inconvenient to find them directly, Wang Ming simply followed the old method and left some old marks with three horizontal lines and one vertical line under the stone archway in the market. This is a three-color flag that represents one's own name and is also a metaphor for hussars. When he was in Yecheng before, Wang Ming also used this symbol to contact Cai Yu.

  The next day, Wang Ming saw that the mark on the archway of the market had been smeared and changed. Three line segments converged at one point, and one of them was slightly longer, pointing to the wine shop in the distance.

  At the archway, there are some majestic and burly soldiers on duty, staring at every passing pedestrian with piercing eyes. Wang Ming handed over his identity certificate, and casually asked the soldiers, "Is that so? Is there any big shot coming today? 』

  The soldier handed back Wang Ming's affidavit very bluntly, "Wang Diannong, why are you asking this?" 』

  Wang Ming waved his hand and said: "Just ask me, you see that you are dressed so brightly, the robes are all new, and there is no dust and plaster on your body, isn't it for some important person to check, what is it?" 』

  The soldier looked down at the armor on his body, and then smiled, "Wang Diannong really has good eyesight... That's right, the county has an order to rectify the appearance of the city... Wang Diannong, don't spread it everywhere..."

  『Oh, I just ask casually, I don’t care about this matter...』 Wang Ming cupped his hands and walked into the market.

  There are shops on both sides of the market, with tall guises, shop assistants or female recruits stand at the door, hawking one after another, soliciting business.

  Today happened to be the day to go to the market, and the surrounding people gathered in the county town, and there was a lot of people.

   At the intersection of the streets in the county town, there is a restaurant.

  The wine shop is not big, not as large as Yecheng, but there are more or less two-story small buildings and a separate courtyard.

Walking forward, Wang Ming suddenly saw a familiar figure from the back of a soldier on the sentry tower, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while, and the other two or three soldiers beside that soldier seemed to be looking around vigilantly. Looking at the situation around him, he even exchanged a glance with Wang Ming.

  『Yo, it seems that there is really a big shot coming? ”Wang Ming withdrew his gaze, “Who could it be? Chen Changwen? Or is it that the county magistrate of Anyang County is about to change? The old and new county magistrates are preparing to hand over, do some superficial things? 』

The management model of the city without walls constructed by General Hussars in Chang'an has gradually affected many areas of the Han Dynasty. In small cities like Anyang, sentry towers have also begun to be built at the end of the streets. To maintain law and order.

  Walking, Wang Ming suddenly felt something was wrong.

  He felt as if someone's eyes fell on him, itchy and prickly.

   Looking back, it seems that there is nothing.

  Wang Ming frowned. Seeing a cloth shop beside him, he turned around and walked in. As soon as he walked into the cloth shop, the feeling of being stared at him seemed to disappear.

  Everyone has some strange habits, or some kind of talent, Wang Ming's talent, maybe it can be said that his perception value is relatively high, and he is more sensitive to the sight of others. This is actually not a rare talent, even many girls have such a high perception, when staring at a certain part of the girl for too long, the girl will always be noticed by the girl along the line of sight.

  Wang Ming is not a girl, but his talent saved his life.

  After Wang Ming turned into the cloth shop, Xun Yu, dressed as an ordinary soldier, looked away from the sentry tower.

  『Wang Diannong? ’ Xun Yu knew Wang Ming, or Xun Yu knew most of the officials under Cao Cao, ‘what did he come to Anyang for? 』

   The reason why Xun Yu is standing here is because Cai Yu was exposed.

   Cai Yu's self-proclaimed cover-up is actually not that difficult to decipher in front of Xun Yu.

  Because there is action, there will inevitably be traces left.

In addition, Cai Yu himself doesn't know how to cover up. Whenever he has money, he spends a lot of money looking for young ladies, and his behavior of suddenly becoming rich is like an ordinary clerk in later generations, wearing a watch worth hundreds of thousands, driving Caddy to the club every day The same eye-catching, if there is no problem, then isn't Xun Yu stupid?

   Xun Yu didn't know who he wanted to contact Cai Yu.

  Because he kept an eye on Cai Yu, he discovered that Cai Yu had changed the sign on the archway and went to the wine shop.

  So Xun Yu came.

  『Lingjun, do you want to arrest him? Said Cao Quan, the guard beside Xun Yu.

  Xun Yu thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "That's not right. hold on. 』

Wang Ming didn't go to the wine shop, so he couldn't confirm that Wang Ming had any connection with Cai Yu, nor could he be sure that it was the mark left by Wang Ming, so it didn't make sense to arrest Wang Ming immediately, even if he was caught, it wouldn't prove that Wang Ming What's wrong with Ming.

   It’s hard to say that I’m going to startle the snake.

  Cao Quan responded, and then stood behind Xun Yu.

   After a while, Wang Ming came out of the cloth shop with a few feet of brightly colored cloth under his arm. The waiter of the cloth shop nodded and bowed to send Wang Ming away.

  Everything seems normal.

Wang Ming was strolling on the street, with a few extra oil paper bags in his hand, dangling in the other hand, looking left and right, just like a very ordinary person shopping in the market, and then He walked leisurely past the restaurant, but didn't go directly into the restaurant.

  『Why didn’t you go in? ”Xun Yu frowned, his eyes followed Wang Ming’s figure, “Could it be him? 』

Xun Yu ordered people to continue to stare at Wang Ming, then looked away from Wang Ming, searched around the wine shop, and said at the same time: "Send a signal over there and ask if anyone else has gone to the wine shop to talk to Mr. Cai." meet? 』

  The soldiers agreed and waved the flag.

  On the road, Wang Ming turned his head.

  The flag on the sentry tower waved.

  Wang Ming looked along the road, and then found a flag waving on a guard tower not far from the wine shop...

   Thinking back for a while, Wang Ming felt as if a cold hand suddenly grabbed his heart, making his heart almost stop beating!

  Although Wang Ming didn't know what the flag meant, it was obvious that these sentry towers were not ordinary soldiers!

  Ordinary soldiers can’t play so many tricks. As a small county like Anyang, if they are really ordinary county soldiers, at most they can only shout warnings, and at most adding Mingjin is already very remarkable!

  Thinking of the previous scenes again, the pictures are connected in series!

   Something bad is going to happen!

must…

  Wang Ming swept his eyes, and then saw several beggars at the corner of the street...

   After a while, a beggar was stopped by the waiter at the entrance of the restaurant.

   The beggar yelled, saying that someone had invited him to eat vegetables, saying that he was eating butchered vegetables, and he also showed several coins in his hand.

  The waiter in the shop sneered, blocking the beggars and not letting them in, not to mention that there are no pig-killing dishes in this restaurant, even if there are, beggars like beggars are not entertained!

   But the beggar obviously seemed to have some brain problems, very stubborn, and kept yelling loudly over and over again, saying that someone really invited him, it was a nobleman who invited him!

  The waiter in the store naturally didn't believe it, and while pushing and shoving him away, he said how could a nobleman invite a beggar to eat, and if he made trouble again, he would be rude...

   The quarrel was so loud that even Cai Yu upstairs could hear it.

  『Killing pig dishes, hehe, how could there be anything...』 Cai Yu held up his wine glass, and suddenly paused, "Killing...pig...cai...Cai? 』

  Cai Yu straightened up abruptly, and quickly looked around. He suddenly found that several people withdrew their gazes when they noticed him looking around, pretending to be eating and drinking, but the chopsticks dangled for a long time without picking up any dishes!

  Cai Yu suddenly realized something, his hands trembled slightly, and then he lowered his head, his face pale, looking at the dishes on the table, but he lost his appetite.
