1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 997 Mission of the Ministry of Security
The guests from all over the world who were invited to participate in Haihan’s founding ceremony were either rich or expensive, and they were accompanied by a large number of armed guards. The safety of these people during their stay in Sanya was the responsibility of Haihan’s public security agencies during this period. top priority.For this reason, the Ministry of Justice began to mobilize the elite public security police from various places to Sanya two months ago, and conducted targeted training in advance.In addition, the armed forces stationed in Sanya have also been assigned corresponding tasks, and will carry out all-weather armed patrols in key areas such as ports, stations, railway lines, and the area near Shengli Fort during the celebration.

The reason why these superficial articles are made in such a big way is that on the one hand, it is to prevent outsiders with malicious intentions from creating troubles during this celebration, and on the other hand, it is also to prevent these guests from causing trouble after eating and drinking.With so many dignitaries and dignitaries with bodyguards gathered in Sanya, some conflicts and frictions must be unavoidable. At this time, the only ones who can come forward to maintain order are Haihan's armed forces.

In addition to these ostensible means, Haihan's special security department will naturally not be idle during this period.While Ning Qi and Schneider were discussing the arrangements for the guests, a team of black-clothed policemen had already cleared a separation zone at Victory Port No. There are two more gold collar badges on the collar than ordinary uniforms.These two collar badges represent that their identities are different from ordinary security police, but belong to the security team of Haihan Security Department.

This team is actually the field personnel of the Ministry of Security, but they usually go out in casual clothes when performing tasks, and rarely wear uniforms, so there are not many people who can identify their true identities from this set of clothes.Field personnel are called out in uniform only on rare special missions, which may happen only once in a year or two.

"These guys... why did they suddenly wear their uniforms today? Look at this guy who looks like a dog..." Zheng Gao leaned against the gate of the Shengli Port Police Station, looking at the "comrades" lined up on the pier not far away, commented very angrily.Today, people from the Ministry of Security were dispatched suddenly to take over this area, and even the gang from the police station were excluded. This kind of privilege really made Zheng Gao feel a little sour.

"When the Ministry of Security works, all idlers avoid it. What's wrong?" Huang Tongyang, the director of the police station, walked to the gate to smoke a cigarette, and said, "We solved the Spanish spy case in January. Isn’t it the same for people like this, who keep everything mysterious, lest people know what they are doing.”

"Director, what do you think the people from the Ministry of Security are planning to do by clearing the pier? Could it be that some important person arrives at the port today? But if there is an important person coming, the military should send someone to maintain order, right? How could it be their turn? Guy!" Zheng Gao continued to discuss rather annoyed.

Huang Tongyang glared at Zheng Gao. The biggest problem with his subordinates is that he lacks a good mouth. If someone listens to this and reports it to the security department, Zheng Gao's personal resume will definitely be blackened. history.

"You kid, don't talk nonsense! Today, people from the Ministry of Security are all present, don't you understand?" Huang Tongyang pointed out bitterly: "Looking at this posture, it must be that the head of the Ministry of Security is coming back from Guangzhou. !"

"Is that the legendary Chief He?" Although Zheng Gao has not been in the judicial system for as long as Huang Tongyang, he has also heard that the Ministry of Security actually has two chiefs, one is Hao Wanqing who lives in Sanya, and the other is He. I stay in the mainland all the year round and rarely go back to Sanya.

"Chief Hao is here too... that's probably it." Huang Tongyang saw a black four-wheeled carriage slowly driving into Pier No. [-]. This kind of carriage with two-color flags on the front is the chief's special car, and the golden shield on the door The logo is the symbol of the Haihan Security Department, and the passenger in the car is undoubtedly Hao Wanqing, one of the heads of the security department.

About half an hour later, an expedition-grade sailing ship appeared on the southern sea, and under the leadership of the guiding ship in the port, it quickly arrived at the trestle at Pier No. [-].The door of the carriage finally opened, and the person who got out of the carriage confirmed Huang Tongyang's guess that it was Hao Wanqing from the Security Department.

The Haihan Security Department, a special agency, has been divided into two sets of teams from the mainland and Hainan Island from the very beginning of its establishment.The master, He Xi, spent far more time in the mainland than in Sanya, and usually commanded by remote control, and Hao Wanqing was in charge of the specific implementation here.The reason for adopting this unique operating mechanism is mainly because the executive committee attaches far more importance to Daming than other places, so the Ministry of Security has deployed its main forces to the southeast coastal area of ​​Daming, mainly Fuguang.

Among Haihan's functional departments, the Ministry of Security is not the only one that adopts the dual-minister system. For example, the Ministry of Shipping is also jointly managed by Yue Zhiyun and Sun Changmi.But the two men from the Ministry of Shipping
Normally speaking, this kind of operating mechanism obviously has many disadvantages, not to mention that it is easy to reduce work efficiency, and may even cause divisions within the security department, but it is amazing that this special department has been able to operate for so many years It is one of the few units that can receive this honor and is commended by the executive committee almost every year.Such achievements are due to the long-term cooperation of the two ministers.

He Xi is not a person who likes to show his face, and he has little time in Sanya, so even if he is a local, not many people know him.He did not stay at the pier for a long time after disembarking, and after a few simple greetings with Hao Wanqing who came to greet him, he quickly boarded the carriage.

"I notified you when I came back, and you made such a big battle for me!" He Xi said dumbfoundedly after getting into the car: "Now half of the people in Victory Port will know that I'm back. "

Hao Wanqing smiled and said: "Your rare visitor who only came back in the past two years, and you don't let others pick it up, so we have to pick it up by ourselves. You must know that there are many newcomers who have come in in the past two years and haven't seen them at all. Thank you, just take this opportunity to let them know the head of the department."

He Xi sighed: "Why not! Last year, I changed a lot of people under my command. I sent Gong Shiqi to Zhejiang, and transferred more than half of the elite team from Guangzhou to him. Now there are some who follow me. A lot of newcomers."

Speaking of this topic, Hao Wanqing also remembered something: "I have also read the files of those around you, why do you seem to have a soft spot for the number 'Seventeen'? Xu Shiqi came in."

He Xi spread her hands and said, "It's purely a coincidence! Of course, I was attracted by the name when I was picking someone, but afterward I saw that the young man was quite clever, so I stayed."

Gong Shiqi was undoubtedly He Xi's number one capable officer. Most of the special missions carried out by the Ministry of Security in Guangdong and Guangxi were led by Gong Shiqi. He had made a lot of contributions in the past few years.It's just because of the special nature of the security department that he won't have the opportunity to be publicly rewarded for his contributions, but his internal promotion opportunities will not be delayed. Last year, when Haihan sent troops to attack Zhoushan, Gong Shiqi had already gone north with the army and was arrested. Sent to Zhejiang, responsible for local intelligence work.And because He Xi's special service team allocated some manpower to Gong Shiqi, they also had to select a lot of newcomers to add them. Xu Shiqi mentioned by Hao Wanqing was one of them.

After the gossip was over, He Xi turned the topic back to the business: "I was supposed to come back last week, but something was delayed in Guangzhou. How are the preparations going?"

Hao Wanqing said: "At present, we have established a joint headquarters with the Police Department and the Army, but our manpower is limited, so most of the field affairs are handled by those two parties. Now Lin Nan and Zhang Qianzhi are responsible for the contact respectively."

"Then what unresolved issues are there?" He Xi asked.

"The biggest problem... is probably the effective monitoring of the foreigners who flooded into Sanya this time." Hao Wanqing sighed: "This time there are at least five or six thousand foreigners who came for the ceremony. Of course, these people are impossible. It's all for watching the excitement, and it's inevitable that some people with ulterior motives will come in. With our current manpower, it's difficult to monitor the overall situation."

Previously, Haihan’s monitoring and identification of foreigners was mainly carried out through three steps: registration by the port authority, check by the public security department, and screening information by the intelligence department for identification.New immigrants arriving in Hong Kong have to go through several days of review procedures before they can get the next step of resettlement, which is naturally the most stringent category.Merchants, sailors, migrant workers, and scholars arriving in Hong Kong all need to go through formalities after entering the port before they can land. In the case of a small number, it is not too difficult to monitor, but during this celebration, a large number of foreign population With the influx, it will be difficult for relevant departments to maintain effective monitoring.

For this reason, the Ministry of Security also tried its best to transfer elite personnel from various places back to Sanya in advance, and cooperated with the military and police to deploy control, and strive to maintain the local law and order and intelligence security in Sanya during the celebration.

He Xi is quite optimistic about this: "In fact, foreigners are easier to monitor. The appearance characteristics of Nanyang and Westerners are more obvious. The local people are mainly Han people. These foreigners are conspicuous wherever they go. We want to Pay more attention to those Chinese, I remember the Spanish espionage case that was cracked in January, the perpetrators were Chinese, right?"

"That's right." Hao Wanqing nodded and said, "In that case, except for an Arab businessman who was running errands to deliver the letter, several Spanish spies lurking in the local area were all Chinese. Among the people who arrived in Hong Kong this time, there were Chinese or mixed races. There are also quite a few people of Chinese descent. According to our current statistics, there are at least 500 people. It is difficult for these people to distinguish their true identities only by their appearance and language. What's more, if they have a special purpose, they must be in these places. All aspects will be prepared, so we are still implementing a system of graded martial law in Sanya."

The so-called graded martial law means that Sanya is divided into several areas that require different authorizations to enter, and the authorization of foreigners is graded to limit the scope of their activities during their stay in Hong Kong.For example, on the road leading to Tiandu, or near Victory Fort, you must verify your identity before you are allowed to pass.Although this method is quite troublesome to implement, in the current security environment, the Ministry of Security can't come up with any better solutions for the time being.Fortunately, a similar management model was also tried in the anniversary celebrations in the past few years. Now it only needs to be adjusted slightly and the scale of monitoring should be expanded, so there is no need to start a new one.

Speaking of the identification of outsiders, Hao Wanqing also asked He Xi: "Is the surveillance network in Guangdong ready?"

He Xi smiled wryly: "Speaking of which, I came back a week late this time because of this."

To say that the most difficult objects to monitor are without a doubt the people from Daming.In addition to businessmen and immigrants from Ming Dynasty, there are also many people with ulterior motives who have tried to sneak into Sanya by various means.Among them are Jin Yiwei with official background, Dongchang fanzi, military spies, Yamen catchers, etc. who eat public food, as well as private commercial spies, thieves and thieves who want to come to Sanya to make money, trying to hide their whereabouts and escape. The imperial court criminal.Once these people enter Sanya and lurk, it will be quite difficult for the relevant departments to dig them out.

It is difficult for these people from the private sector to achieve effective monitoring at the source, but eating public meals is relatively easy. He Xi has been operating in Guangzhou for many years, and all aspects of the network and information network have operated very smoothly. It can be said that any local The yamen wanted to send people to Sanya, and He Xi could basically get the news before the relevant personnel set off from Guangzhou, and then use Haihan's advantages in information transmission to deploy and control them before they arrived in Hainan Island. It has been caught.

Li Qingyang, who used to work in the Daming Jinyiwei in the Ministry of Security, tried to lurk in Sanya at the beginning, but was caught in this way, and was later subdued by Haihan and changed to work in the Ministry of Security. Upside down also made a lot of credit.

Before He Xi returned from going south this time, he also secretly deployed control in Guangzhou and Zhaoqing in advance to monitor the relevant local yamen.Of course, this kind of monitoring does not rely on manpower to go outside the yamen and keep an eye on it, but to learn whether these yamen have plans to send people to Sanya through various intelligence channels.Although there are people in charge of each yamen who have taken Hai Han's money, not everyone's butts are sitting on Hai Han's side, and some people want to play tricks if they don't keep it all. The security department doesn't dare to be careless about it.

And this time, it happened that Zhaoqing’s Dongchang Yamen replaced the chief officer. The former chief officer contracted a cold and was not cured for several months. He died at the beginning of the year, and the successor official did not arrive in Zhaoqing Mansion until mid-March. .But in order to make sure that the new official would not set fire to others when he took office, He Xi had to postpone his return to Sanya, and specially found someone to do some activities, trying to settle the new eunuch with money.
