Chapter 2091
He Xi was subconsciously surprised when he heard these words, and soon realized that this was just a special method prepared by Yan Chujie, not a real military situation. But he couldn't help but confirm: "What you said is all
It’s something that hasn’t happened yet, right?”
Yan Chujie was very satisfied with He Xi's reaction, his expression relaxed a little, and he smiled and said: "If we need it to happen, it can happen at any time."
Since Haihan stationed a large number of troops in Jinzhou all year round, the intelligence work against the Qing army was basically the responsibility of the military. The Ministry of Security only stationed a few people symbolically, and their main job was to supervise the local people who were recruited by Haihan.
Dongjiang Town soldiers and civilians. Therefore, regarding the situation of the Qing army in Liaodong, the Ministry of Security is actually far less detailed than the Military Intelligence Bureau. If the situation mentioned by Yan Chujie really happened, then Haihan’s only credible source of intelligence is really the military.
.
He Xi finally understood why Yan Chujie was so certain about the results of this matter. After all, the information about the changes in the situation in Liaodong completely relied on the Military Intelligence Bureau. Not to mention the Executive Committee, it was difficult for even him to doubt it.
Its authenticity. The combat readiness of the Qing army has always been a key concern of the Executive Committee. If it is heard that the Qing army may have mastered the manufacturing technology of Western-style muskets and artillery, the Executive Committee will definitely not be able to sit still and its attitude will be different.
It will be as comfortable as it was with the Hirado Domain.
Once the Qing army masters advanced military technology, with the resources in its hands, it should be able to form a firearms unit that can threaten the safety of the Haihan Army in a short period of time. In order to prevent the occurrence of this dangerous situation, it will eliminate the situation
It is very necessary in the bud. The most reliable way is to solve the problem from the source and wipe out the Hirado Domain, so that no military technology will be leaked.
As for the agreement with the Qing army to send troops together to carve up the Korean Peninsula from the north and the south, it actually does not necessarily make the Executive Committee very nervous, but it can obviously greatly increase the credibility of the rumors about military technology. After all,
Both the Qing army and the Japanese shogunate had a history of invading North Korea. After failing repeatedly, it seemed possible that the two parties would jointly send troops to attack North Korea.
He Xi thought about it carefully and found that there were no obvious loopholes in Yan Chujie's plan. He knew that most of the personnel in the Military Intelligence Bureau were personally selected by Yan Chujie. They could be said to be Yan Chujie's confidants, so it would be easy to operate this matter.
And there is no need to worry about leaks. This process does not even require the assistance of the Ministry of Security. The military itself can operate it in an almost perfect way.
"I have to admit that this is indeed a pretty good plan." After thinking for a while, He Xi also approved Yan Chujie's plan. But he also needed to know to what extent Yan Chujie planned to operate this matter.
Since the Military Intelligence Bureau can fabricate false information once, it can theoretically fabricate it several times again. Or worse, in fact, the Military Intelligence Bureau has already made actions of this nature before.
"Then what goals must be achieved before this plan can be stopped? Is it possible to achieve it only once and never twice?" He Xi asked.
Yan Chujie must have thought about this a long time ago, and immediately responded: "As long as the Executive Committee agrees to launch troops against the Hirado Domain, we can control the scale of subsequent actions ourselves. As for the future... If I do it now
If we make a promise, there is actually no guarantee that we will not take action again when similar situations arise in the future. Of course, if this can make you feel more at ease, then I don't mind making a few more promises."
He Xi's face darkened and she said: "If this method becomes the usual method of the military, then I think it will not be a good thing for either the military or the country!"
"No, no, no, Lao He, you have misunderstood me." Yan Chujie denied He Xi's accusation: "I just want to keep this method of correction to continue to exist, not to use this method at will to influence the executive committee.
Normal decision-making.”
"But who knows? This kind of thing can be carried out by just one unit of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and the Executive Committee has no way to verify the authenticity of every piece of intelligence from the north. Without a supervision mechanism, I'm afraid that your military will start with this.
I can't stop!" He Xi expressed deep concern about this.
"This is one of the reasons why I invited you here today." Yan Chujie said seriously: "The only one with the real ability to supervise the Military Intelligence Bureau is your Security Department. I want to discuss with you to set up a joint intelligence agency
The organization, on the one hand, allows the two departments to communicate some key information more immediately, and on the other hand, it also facilitates the Ministry of Security to supervise the military’s intelligence work, so you don’t have to worry about the military hiding the truth from the Executive Committee and the Ministry of Security.
You did something inappropriate."
He Xi thought for a while and said: "If we want this joint agency to supervise military intelligence work, wouldn't it be necessary to give it great authority? In this way, the regulatory agency will override the existing intelligence departments, then
It’s like creating a new privileged department.”
"The only prerogative of this department is the supervisory function, but they cannot interfere with the work of the military or the Ministry of Security. If they find problems, they can only submit them to you, me, or the executive committee. In this way, there is no overriding of other departments.
Yes. Of course, in order to play a supervisory role, the establishment of this department will be mainly staff from the Ministry of Security, and the military will only provide functions similar to the military police." Yan Chujie patiently explained to him.
He Ximoran, if these conditions can be met, then Yan Chujie has indeed taken the initiative to make huge concessions. The so-called joint agency is actually just to make the supervision authority of the Ministry of Security look more fair. The real leader is undoubtedly
The Ministry of Security. Although it has no actual operational privileges, since this organization is under the management of the Ministry of Security, it is equivalent to supervising the military’s intelligence work on behalf of the Executive Committee. Compared to the current executive committee’s
In this special field, there has indeed been considerable progress.
At this time, Bai Kesi also said: "There are some things we can do because we all have common interests on the table, and the purpose is to make this country strong and strong. But if the people below do not receive the restrictions and supervision they deserve,
In the future, privileges may be used in the wrong place. Lao Yan would also be worried that similar practices would become the norm after this incident, so he took the initiative to propose this remedial plan to strengthen supervision and limit the authority of the Military Intelligence Bureau.
"
If what Bai Kesi said is true, then Yan Chujie's attitude can be considered very correct, and he has already considered how to strengthen supervision before this method was implemented. This is tantamount to blocking him himself.
This vulnerability was discovered.
Yan Chujie said: "Old He, I hope you can understand two things. First, I can implement the plan I mentioned without telling you. Second, I don't need to set up a special regulatory agency and control the management.
The power is in your hands. There is only one reason why I chose to do this, and that is all for Haihan!"
He Xi was finally persuaded by the two men, but he also stated that he would not support the military in further escalating the situation or launching a larger-scale war, and that Yan Chujie needed to launch the supervision plan he promised as soon as possible, regardless of the establishment of a new agency.
Okay, whether it is coming up with corresponding system details, in short, it is necessary to implement this.
Yan Chujie naturally agreed to this. He didn't just come to He Xi for supervision. To realize his vision for the Hirado Domain, he still needed some necessary assistance from the Ministry of Security. Although He Xi could not participate in the executive committee
A vote will be held, but the information provided and the position expressed by the Ministry of Security will also affect the final choice of the executive committee members.
After the three people reached an agreement, they quickly began to implement the plan separately according to the agreed content. The military moved very quickly. Just one day later, a message from the reconnaissance fleet shocked the executive committee.
This cable stated that after the scouts conducted inquiries in Hirado and Nagasaki, they found that the Hirado clan was preparing to sell the arms manufacturing technology and shipbuilding information on hand to the Qing Dynasty. In exchange for this, the Qing Dynasty promised to sell the weapons to the Qing Dynasty at some time in the future.
Together with the Hirado clan, they sent troops to invade Korea and ruled by using the Han River as the dividing line between north and south.
When does this "sometime" specifically refer to? There is no more precise information in the message sent back from the front, but the military believes that it refers to the time when the Qing army obtained military technology, manufactured military equipment on a large scale, and assembled the troops to form combat effectiveness.
when.
Yan Chujie expressed great concern about this situation. He reminded the Executive Committee that if this situation is true, then at most two or three years later, the Qing army may have a large firearms force, and even some may suddenly appear.
The armed fleet. Although its strength is definitely still inferior to that of the Haihan Army, if the two armies confront each other on a frontal battlefield, the equipment advantage of the Haihan Army will probably not be as great as it is now, and the number of casualties in the battle will definitely be straight.
rise.
Another day later, the Ministry of Security also made a breakthrough in the field of intelligence. According to the reports of the spies sent by the Ministry of Security to Ryukyu, the Hirado Domain had sent people to the Ryukyu Kingdom to contact Spanish businessmen, and there was news that the Hirado Domain introduced the
A group of Spanish weapon craftsmen, this is most likely why the Hirado Domain has mastered the technology of casting Western-style artillery. This news also confirms the possibility of the Hirado Domain selling military technology to the Qing army. Once the Qing Dynasty
If the military's arsenal is put into production, it means that there will be more and more trouble for Haihan.
According to statistics from intelligence agencies, the number of muskets seized in various places has even exceeded the number that the Spanish colonists in the Philippines could provide. This discovery also explains why the Hirado clan was able to send so many to the outside world.
He Xi suspected that the Hirado clan might already have a certain size of musketeers.
After the latest intelligence was transmitted back to Sanya, both the Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Security adjusted the assessment of the Hirado Domain's situation from focused reconnaissance to very dangerous. This means that both departments believe that military means must be used to deal with the situation.
Intervene to eliminate hidden dangers that may threaten Haihan's safety in advance.
"If we don't deal with the Hirado clan as soon as possible, then we will likely face the Qing army with powerful anti-personnel weapons on the Liaodong battlefield. Everyone, there will be no negotiation between us and the Qing army, so in that situation
The emergence of the enemy means that our army will suffer greater battle casualties, and this risk can actually be avoided!" Yan Chujie said excitedly, walked to the large map of Northeast Asia hanging on the wall, raised his arm and pointed to the location of Kyushu, Japan.
: "Hirado Domain! As long as we clear this target, we can eliminate all hidden dangers in advance! Everyone, we don't have much time to wait, we must take action as soon as possible!"
In this process, whether it is the intelligence provided by the military or the Ministry of Security, it is not completely fictitious. It is basically based on existing intelligence plus some reasonable speculations. Naturally, the Executive Committee far away in Sanya
It is impossible to go beyond the military and the Ministry of Security to verify what is happening thousands of miles away, so the credibility of these information is quite high for the Executive Committee - at least the military and the Ministry of Security claim that these sources are
Reliable.
Schneider, who had previously advocated negotiating with the Hirado Domain to resolve the issue, was forced to change his attitude due to the situation. After all, for Haihan, forces with powerful anti-personnel weapons are either allies or enemies, not to mention that this enemy also plans to manufacture weapons.
technology to Haihan's mortal enemy. There is still the possibility of negotiation on other issues, but if the Hirado clan wants to do such a thing, it is asking for death. Even if Schneider wants to negotiate, he must consider the subsequent impact. By then, Liaodong
If these weapons and equipment appeared on the battlefield, it would be the consequences of indulging the Hirado clan, and he could not bear such responsibility.
As a result, the situation in the Executive Committee took a turn for the worse. The debate in the previous days quickly turned into a one-sided attitude. They sent troops to launch a military attack on the unruly Hirado Domain and wiped out the ever-restless Shiba Shiba Party. They became the Executive Committee members.
There will be a unified opinion at the moment.
This resolution was immediately sent back to the north via telegram. Wang Tom and Qian Tiandun did not know the changes in the wind direction that had occurred in Sanya in just a few days, nor did they know the methods Yan Chujie used in the process. They
I'm just a little surprised that this time the Executive Committee made such a decisive decision to use military measures. You must know that the fleet sent out from the Datong River base to perform reconnaissance missions is currently still in the Kyushu area and has not returned. Even the reconnaissance mission has not returned.
Before the operation was completely over, the Executive Committee made a decision to launch a military strike, which was rare in history.
"What happened to the Executive Committee? Have all those people turned into militants?" Wang Tom held the telegram with a confused expression.
"You ask me, how do I know!" Qian Tiandun was also puzzled by this.
