1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 1061 Plan Change
"Brother Gong, do you mean to use all the tricks and lure Liao Xun out of Hangzhou before attacking him?"

That night in Hangzhou City, Gong Shiqi met Gao Qiaonan again and informed him of the accident that happened at Chengfenghang today.After Gao Qiaonan finished listening, he had already vaguely guessed Gong Shiqi's plan, so he asked him for confirmation.

"Yes, if we can manage to get Liao Xun to fall into the trap, we can save a lot of trouble in Hangzhou City." Gong Shiqi nodded and admitted Gao Qiaonan's guess: "And I see his posture, this place is deliberate The plan to deal with us has probably been prepared for a long time, just waiting for such an opportunity to send people to Zhoushan Island. It took him so much trouble to find Cheng Fengxing, and the person who wants to send him to the island is probably not an ordinary spy. "

Gao Qiaonan also agreed with this: "If it wasn't for the accidental accident that happened to find Chengfeng's head, he might have really hidden us from us when he planned this matter."

"To be honest, we were really lucky this time, but the security loopholes in the immigration measures are still slowly emerging!" Gong Shiqi said with a sigh: "This matter must be reported to the headquarters as soon as possible!"

Since Haihan itself has been in a state of rapid development, the demand for population, especially labor force, has almost never stopped. However, the number of people in Haihan itself responsible for immigration work is also very limited, so they can only be deployed in areas where the introduction of immigrants is relatively concentrated. and post.After Haihan occupied Zhoushan, the main direction of introducing immigrants from Daming was still from the Jiaodong Peninsula in the north, and because Jiangsu and Zhejiang were relatively rich and stable, most of the immigrants that could be introduced from various state capitals were sporadic. An organization of 80 or [-] people is considered too much.Therefore, in order to save time and effort, the civil affairs department outsourced the work of organizing immigration to the dental intermediary agencies of the state capitals, and only controlled the review of the acceptance stage.

The security loopholes in the middle are clear to the civil affairs department, and the security department is also aware of it, but it has been operating like this in the south before, and there have been no major problems, and everyone has maintained a tacit understanding to continue this practice.But after the Hangzhou operation, the rules in this area may have to be changed. Otherwise, when the assassination incident on Zhoushan Island is held and the responsibility is investigated, the responsibility of the relevant personnel will be serious.

Takahashi Nandao: "Then the action in the city will continue as planned?"

Gong Shiqidao: "Originally I planned to lead a team to attack the residence of the target person after nightfall, but our existing conditions can only complete the investigation of the external environment, but it is too late to find out the situation inside the residence, so the risk of action is still very high .I have been thinking about how to design a more secure action plan, until today I have a general idea."

"I would like to hear the details." Gao Qiaonan also became interested when he heard it.They had been in Hangzhou for a few days, and Gao Qiaonan was in charge of investigating the daily activities of the target person in the city, so he fully felt the difficulty of this operation.

Several targets of the action team were sitting and working in the yamen during the day, so it was obviously impossible to kill them in broad daylight.However, if they wanted to attack their residence at night, the action team would have to enter the block to lurk before dark, and after the attack, they would have to leave the city as soon as possible before dawn to ensure a safe escape.The time span during this period was as long as one night, and there were too many uncontrollable variables in the middle. The risks required for the operation were quite large, and the whole team might be trapped in the city.

Although both Gong Shiqi and Gao Qiaonan were fierce men who were not afraid of death, they did not want to take unnecessary risks in the operation, not to mention that the participants in this operation were all carefully selected elites from the Ministry of Security and the Special Operations Battalion , Any loss of personnel is an unacceptable and serious loss for them.It would be best if we could find a relatively risk-controllable way to achieve the intended goal.

Gong Shiqidao: "According to what we know so far, Liao Xun, Yu Pingfeng and Guo Zheng are in collusion, and almost all the official documents issued by the Hangzhou government against Haihan in the past year were concocted by them. Just now I was thinking, if we can manage to control Liao Xun, whether we can trick the other two out through him, as long as we can make them enter a place under our control, the difficulty of doing so will be reduced exponentially."

"But you want to control Liao Xun to be used by us, it's not easy!" Gao Qiaonan said carefully: "This guy has been tossing with us for a year, and he seems to be a die-hard guy who doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back. If you catch it, you may not be willing to surrender to us."

"The problem you mentioned does exist, so when dealing with people like him, you can't stick to the rules. When you need to use extraordinary means, you must use them. Everything is based on the completion of the task." Gong Shiqi seemed quite confident about this: " I can think of at least seventeen or eight ways to make this Liao Xun bow down to us!"

Although Gao Qiaonan didn't know the specific content of the measures Gong Shiqi mentioned, most of the things the Ministry of Security did were shady, and it would not be some open and aboveboard tricks, and he was used to the battlefield. He was not very interested in this kind of tactics, so in order to avoid embarrassment, he didn't ask any more questions about it.But he also knew that if he wanted Liao Xun and others to disappear from Hangzhou silently, then the method proposed by Gong Shiqi would probably be much more feasible than storming his residence. Considering the overall situation, he should indeed cooperate with Gong Seventeen ideas to implement follow-up actions.

The two discussed and decided to transfer the investigation direction to Liao Xun's side in the next few days, monitor his daily whereabouts and residence conditions, and try to find Liao Xun's body before Wanfa organized the immigrants. Weaknesses to be exploited.In this way, when Liao Xun went to Chengfenghang again five days later, he could set up a targeted situation and wait for him to throw himself into the trap.

Jin Yiwei's investigation of Chengfenghang was obviously not thorough enough, neither did they find any loopholes in Wanfa's identity, nor did they notice any problems with Chengfenghang's capital background.Of course, this is also due to the fact that the Ministry of Security put in enough effort when it took this pawn, painstakingly created a basically perfect fake identity for Wan Fa, and then managed to take over the name of Cheng Fengxing from the Fujian Xu family. It has been in operation for many years, and except for the immigration project, Chengfenghang has never sold any products produced by Haihan.In this way, Wanfa’s confession of whitewashing himself seems to have a certain degree of credibility. After all, how can a businessman who really has close contacts with Haihan not resell Haihan’s products with high profits, and the process of doing it is too troublesome Many immigration businesses with relatively low income.

So although Liao Xun spent some time investigating Cheng Fengxing's background, he hastily failed to discover the real relationship between this store and Haihan, and never thought about this seemingly cowardly and philistine merchant. The innkeeper is actually Hai Han's detective in Hangzhou City.In this way, Liao Xun naturally did not have much wariness towards Cheng Fengxing and Wan Fa. Although he also arranged manpower to monitor near Cheng Fengxing, this was only to prevent Wan Fa from running away in a hurry. It's just a precautionary measure.Perhaps in the eyes of Jin Yiwei, Cheng Fengxing's suspicion of colluding with Hai Han is actually not as good as those merchants who sell Hai Han products in the market, at least the latter's frequency of going to Zhoushan is much higher than that of Wan Fa.

The current situation can be said to be that Jin Yiwei is in the open, while the action team is in the dark. Liao Xun almost sent himself to Hai Han's cutting board in a defenseless posture without knowing it. The most favorable position in this situation.What Gong Shiqi has to do now is to make a good plan on how to make good use of the current situation and gain the greatest advantage for his side's next actions.

The next day, when Liao Xun deployed his men to the surrounding areas of Chengfengxing to monitor Wanfa's movements, he didn't know that the Haihan people he was looking for were in the city at this time, and the soldiers were divided into two groups to attack Jinyiwei. The Yamen and Liao's residence in the north of the city were under surveillance.

"There is something wrong with this house!" Gong Shiqi walked around Liao Xun's house in the north of the city, and he saw something was wrong. communicated his findings.

This is the second time Gao Qiaonan has come here to investigate. He especially called Gong Shiqi to come over. He was worried that there might be omissions in his observations, so he hurriedly asked, "Brother Gong, what did you find?"

Gong Shiqi stretched out a finger to dip the tea from the teacup, started to draw on the table, and explained to Gao Qiaonan while drawing, "Look, this is Liao's house, facing south from the north, and there is a An alley is another house, right?"

Gao Qiaonan didn't understand what it meant, but he nodded in recognition of the accuracy of Gong Shiqi's sketch.

Gong Shiqi went on to say: "The back doors of these two houses are opened in the alley, but the middle of this alley is a dead end. Why do you think this is? I have seen the place where the wall was closed. I asked the nearby oil sauce shop, and I can confirm that this alley was open before."

Gao Qiaonan suddenly said: "You mean to say that the two back doors are just for deception, but the head of the household sealed off the alley between the two houses to... prevent people from discovering that the two houses are connected together. of?"

Gong Shiqi nodded and said: "This is not a new tactic. Our security department's stronghold in Guangzhou is also two adjacent houses. However, we did not use such a crude method, but specifically dug under the two houses. In case of danger, he can move out from one of the houses. Presumably Liao Xun didn't want to make such a trouble, so he simply built a wall in the middle to cut off the alley. With his identity, even if someone If you notice this kind of method, you shouldn’t dare to ask.”

Gao Qiaonan sighed: "Of course he would never have thought that someone would come here to monitor his mansion... But with his status, he can openly buy these two mansions and merge them into one to create this kind of cover-up. What is the method of concealment?"

Now Gong Shiqi couldn't answer, he shook his head and said: "What is the purpose, I don't know, maybe I used that house to raise another woman? Or maybe there is something shady hidden in it." With extensive knowledge, he would never have guessed that Liao Xun hid a "special force" in another house.

Gao Qiaonan said: "If it wasn't for Brother Gong who came here to investigate in person today, I'm afraid I would have skipped the details. If we want to take action on this place at that time, we might be in vain because of it! It's dangerous, it's dangerous !"

Gong Shiqi comforted: "Gao Qiao...Brother Qiao, don't blame yourself. After all, you are a general leading an army. You have never seen these weird tricks in the Jianghu. It is inevitable that some omissions will occur." Gong Shiqi almost used his original name, but suddenly Remembering that Gao Qiaonan had already changed his name to Qiao Nan in action, he changed his words abruptly.

Takahashi Nan didn't take it seriously. Many people in the Haihan Army still referred to him as "Battle Commander Gao". Many people didn't even know that he was from Japan and his surname was Takahashi. Like Gong Shiqi, he used his original surname Comparability is rare.

Now that Liao Xun's house has been discovered to be weird, there is no reason to let it go, Gong Shiqi said: "I have issued an order to have people watch the house together with the house connected to the north, and have a look. Can you find out what tricks Liao Xun is playing?"

Gao Qiaonan said: "If we don't climb over the wall and enter, how can we know what's going on inside?"

"Some things can be deduced from other circumstances without going over the wall." Gong Shiqi explained: "We monitor the people entering and leaving every day, and we can guess the approximate number of people inside in a few days."

"Then what if someone lives in seclusion?" Gao Qiaonan asked.

"If you live in the house, you always have to eat." Gong Shiqi said confidently: "Liao Xun, as a family of Jinyiwei, must be particular about his diet. The amount of fresh ingredients purchased every day in this house can also reflect the life in the house. How many people are there?"

"Your method is similar to the method used in military reconnaissance to estimate the size of the army based on the amount of rations, but people have different appetites and dietary preferences. It is not like the military that has clear regulations on the amount of rations consumed by each person per day. There are bound to be large errors in making guesses." Gao Qiaonan was not very impressed with Gong Shiqi's method.

"There will be errors, but it won't be as big as imagined, and this is in the city, which is different from the situation on the battlefield. We can find a way to get more accurate information." Gong Shiqi came prepared , explained to Takahashi Nan: "In a house like this, the population is relatively large, and there are usually rice merchants and vegetable vendors who don't need them to go out to buy ingredients in person. We only need to find vendors who provide ingredients to them, and at most spend some money , we can get more detailed information from him. I have sent people to inquire about the news, and I think we will be able to figure out what we want to know soon."

Gao Qiaonan was convinced now, he gave a thumbs up and said: "No wonder the chief often said that you people in the city know how to play, and I have seen it today!"
