Chapter 202 The plan begins [asking for a monthly ticket! ]

Shang Yunhai's brows trembled slightly, as if he didn't understand this behavior. He wanted to respect it, but didn't know where to start.

The two men repeated their old tricks and rushed forward again with the purchase order. Liang Yue asked, "What's going on?"

"I don't know either!" Da Qiao's eyes widened. "I planned to sell three days' worth of cakes, but they were all sold out today! How about I just not come tomorrow?"

"You are so popular today and your business is so good. It is inevitable that people will be suspicious if you suddenly disappear." Liang Yue thought, "I will try again."

After saying that, he turned around, made two "Pah" sounds, and shouted, "You really can't buy this cake. I tasted it wrong before. It doesn't taste like bath water, it tastes like foot washing water!"

"Ah?" Everyone who heard this in the back was shocked.

"No, buddy." Someone asked suspiciously, "How can you taste everything?"

Liang Yue glared and pointed at the imperial edict in his hand, "I am a fireman in the army, so naturally I have to taste all the ingredients. What's so strange about that?"

After this explanation, the expressions of the people behind him became even more strange.

Liang Yue and Monk Yun Hai quickly fled.

In another base of the Zhuxie Division's spies, a cart of dishes that would take them a whole day to purchase had already been arranged. They went to pick them up on the way and pushed them back to the barracks in just the right time.

Li Mo was left alone in the barracks today, and it was unknown how he got along with the soldiers of the Fire Camp. Fatty Wang was said to be the brother-in-law of the patrol general, so it was hard to say whether he would take revenge.

Unexpectedly, when the two returned to the barracks, they saw the people from the Huotou Camp were busy preparing dinner. Everyone was sweating profusely, but Li Mo was the only one missing.

"Where is my brother Li Er?" Liang Yue asked everyone.

The others looked up from the stove, all with gloomy faces. Fatty Wang said unhappily, "He's in there with the master."

Liang Yue and Monk Yunhai walked out of the kitchen back door and came to the resting barracks. They saw Li Mo fanning the old man in the rocking chair with a flattering look on his face, and said at the same time: "I also know that there is a lake next to the East Market of Longyuan City. There are old ladies chatting on the lakeside. Pick one at random, and she has been to the palace and met the emperor. Most of the old men in their families are dead. They don't have to worry about food and money, but they lack sincere company. Master, if you go over to a handsome old man like you who can cook delicious food, isn't that killing people indiscriminately?"

"Oh my." The old man laughed until his eyes disappeared. "I dare not say that I can cook in Longyuan City. This crude skill is only useful in the army."

"Don't worry, your cooking skills are only slightly inferior to those of the imperial chefs in the palace." Li Mo said seriously, "Diners!"

"The imperial chef cooks for the emperor, and you cook for the soldiers. But if you say there is a difference, it must be almost the same." Li Mo lied seriously, "And I think, if you ask the palace chef to cook the same dish, such as the pearl jade soup you are famous for now, can he cook as well as you? I won't believe it even if you kill me."

"I wouldn't dare say so. It's just that... everyone has their own expertise and I have a few specialties." The old team leader was delighted.

Liang Yue and Monk Yunhai felt their scalps tingling as they listened to what happened nearby. No wonder Li Mo could become the best-selling artist of the Talisman Sect. He really had some skills.

I used to think he was good at coaxing rich women, but now I understand that he only coaxes rich women because it makes the most money. When necessary, no matter whether it is men or women, old or young, the coaxing is the same.

After standing there for a long time, the old team leader finally noticed them and called out, "Liang Da, Shang San, you're back. I was just about to announce the good news to you."

"Boss, I'm Shang Da and he's Liang San," Shang Yunhai corrected.

Even though it's a pseudonym and it doesn't matter, you can't just call it whatever you want.

"Ah, Shang... Liang San, whatever you want. Ah Da Ah San, this Xiao Li will be my disciple from now on, different from those clumsy apprentices outside." The old team leader patted Li Mo's shoulder, "If the three of you are not biological children, then I suggest that Xiao Li be the boss from now on."

"That's not necessary, Master." Li Mo quickly stopped him.

He thought the name Li Er was nice, but the name Li Da sounded a bit unlucky for no reason.

Li Mo kept the old man happy, so he didn't do any work for the day. The two brothers went out to buy things. The three newcomers didn't do any work in the barracks, so all the chores and cooking fell on the shoulders of the others, so everyone looked unhappy.

Especially after dinner, the old man announced that he would accept Li Er as his apprentice, which surprised everyone. You know, even Fatty Wang, who had learned the most skills from the old man, was not accepted as his apprentice.

Li Er even cupped his hands hypocritically, "Master, how could you announce it in front of everyone? I became an entry-level disciple right after I arrived. I hope you brothers won't be angry?"

The old man glared and said, "So what if you're angry? I want to see who dares to cause trouble for you!"

……

Thanks to Li Mo's trick of coaxing the old man, the three brothers finally found a backer in the Huotou Camp.

It was only after hearing what Li Mo said that they realized that although this old man was just a team leader, it was because he had no martial arts skills.

In terms of cooking skills, he is one of the best in the entire Fire Head Battalion, and he has the longest experience in the Fire Head Battalion. During the Northwest War, he was in the army cooking. If he was not so good at cooking, how could he stay in the army at this age if he wanted to teach more apprentices?

This captain has good relations with many generals.

At night, the three brothers came out and met each other. "Everything has been arranged outside, and we can start planning tomorrow." Shang Yunhai said, "Once the letter from the Ministry of War arrives, we will see what happens outside. We must cooperate with the people from the Ministry of War in the barracks to see if there is a spy network formed inside."

They made a plan at the beginning.

After all the people in the military camp and the military town have been laid out, the Ministry of War will send a false military order, ordering the Beizhou Army to march urgently to Frost North City within three days.

Although they didn't say they were going to start a war, the sudden march of a hundred thousand troops must have a great intention. If there really were nine spies hiding in the army, they would definitely find a way to pass the information out.

Moreover, the marching order will only be issued to the military rank of lieutenant and above, and the lower-level soldiers will not get the news. This will make it more certain whether the range of the Nine Yang spies really threatens the Northern State Army.

Because to be honest, in this era, it is very difficult to find out if there are spies planted among the lower-level soldiers. Even if every one of the millions of soldiers in the Yin Dynasty has been investigated and their backgrounds are clean, it is not difficult for Jiuyang to plant a small soldier as long as he is willing to arrange it.

This is inevitable in any army. The solution is also very simple, just let the lower-level soldiers know the real plan.

If the Nine-Yang spy was a low-level soldier or a captain, or even a captain, it would be difficult for him to cause any significant damage to the Northern State Army, because he would only suddenly receive the order to march the night before or even before departure.

The lower-level soldiers had no idea where to go, what to do, or which route to take, and could only follow in confusion.

In this situation, it was difficult for him to deliver a message temporarily, and even if he could, there was nothing good to convey.

The ones who are really hurt are the important officers at the rank of colonel and above. Some large colonels are in charge of hundreds or thousands of people, or if they have made military achievements, they can be awarded the title of general and are considered the backbone of the army.

Before a military operation, they would be fully involved in the formulation and execution of the plan and know all the intentions of the march and the battle. If there were Nine Yang spies among these people, it could cause heavy damage to the Yin army at a critical moment.

Yu Wenlong used to be such a person, but fortunately Ling Sansi was fighting against Haiyue Kingdom, not Jiuyang. Moreover, his battle plan was not only known by Yu Wenlong, but also by Haiyue Kingdom.

Ling Sansi did not hide anything. He just marched slowly, attacked the city, and broke the city, wishing the route was straight.

What's the point of leaking military secrets when the gap is so huge?

For the Haiyue Kingdom, it is no different from a countdown to death.

Therefore, the Evil Extermination Division came this time to target the possible threats among the upper echelons of the Northern State Army. As for the spies among the lower-level soldiers, they would look for them if they could be found. If they could not be found, they would just remember the matter and deal with it later when they had the chance.

Only senior military officers can get this information. If there are nine spies among them, he only has three options.

First, go out and deliver it in person.

All suspicious residents in the military town have been monitored by the Evil Extermination Bureau. If he acts personally, he might be exposed.

Second, pass the message to the subordinates in the military camp, and the subordinates will go out to pass the message.

The high-ranking spy may have already developed or recruited other accomplices in the army. In this case, if the lower-level soldiers go out of the camp to pass on the message, the probability of being discovered will be small.

Their solution was to have the Ministry of War send a large number of people to secretly monitor the situation in the name of coordinated operations. They would pay attention to whether each officer had left the city and who they had contact with.

This may seem more difficult to monitor, but in fact it is not that difficult. Because when encountering urgent and confidential military orders, officers from various battalions will gather together to discuss, and there will not be many people who will disperse after holding meetings of all sizes and levels.

The third is to spread the news secretly so that everyone in the military knows about it, so that the news can be released without having to contact the subordinates personally.

This requires them to keep a close eye on their surroundings and be wary of rumors. Liang Yue and his men, as firemen with a wide range of information, can monitor the direction of public opinion in the barracks.

……

At dawn the next day, the plan was carried out in an orderly manner. A team of carriages from the Ministry of War entered the military camp, with many unfamiliar faces.

The veteran has already smelled something different.

At this time, the old team leader walked into the barracks, looked around, and then said: "I heard a rumor today, the situation is very serious."

"Huh?" The three brothers immediately became alert.

Could it be that the news had already spread as soon as the people from the Ministry of War arrived?

This is too fast.

The old team leader said with a serious face, "There are rumors outside that our fireman camp uses foot washing water as food, and they say that it was spread by the firemen themselves. This is simply nonsense!"

"Even in the northwest desert and the vast ocean, we have never done this in all these years. Anyone who spreads such words is destroying the reputation of our Fire Head Camp! Pay attention to who in the camp has said such words recently?"

The old man gnashed his teeth and said, "He better not be caught by me..."
