The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 193 Operation Interval (Subscription for the fourth update)
"This is a hostile force spreading rumors! No one is allowed to escape."

In the central city of Yecheng, hundreds of internal guards surrounded the Wuzhou Commercial Firm. The leader was a school lieutenant. He led a hundred soldiers and rushed in. Soon, there were bursts of shouts and screams inside. After a while, I saw the captain strode out, covered in blood, and the soldiers behind him dragged a fat middle-aged man and a few men dressed as men, and there were many others. The soldiers were holding various documents.

Jiang Liu stationery shopkeeper looked at Bu Xing on the opposite side, with a trace of sadness in his eyes, suddenly saw the school lieutenant approaching, with a hint of respect on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General."

The captain asked, "Do you know the person opposite?"

"I know, of course I know him. His name is Lu Xuan. Everyone bowed their heads but didn't see them when they looked up. There's no reason why they didn't know each other. It's just that they were spies." The shopkeeper of Jiangliu Stationery smiled wryly.

"Hmph, you know people, you don't know your face, you don't know your heart. Pay attention to some strangers."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The captain left, and every family came to inquire.

When the sergeant walked away, Jiangliu stationery shopkeeper's eyes were full of worry. He asked a clerk to greet two guests who chose the four treasures of the study, but he went out of the gate.

The two guests looked at each other, each picked something, paid the bill and went out.

At dusk, Shen Guang returned to Shenwu Palace to report the progress again.

"Your Highness, my lords, all 37 people on the list of Wuzhou Commercial Firm have been arrested."

"It gave us 37 people at one time, so I'm willing to pay the cost." Yang Tong smiled slightly, and said, "How's the follow-up result?"

Shen Guang exclaimed: "His Royal Highness is as good as God. There are 170 seven shops in the whole city that have problems. After watching for a long time, the brothers found that the proprietors and shopkeepers of these shops went to Tianxia Winery, Yanchun Restaurant, Luoxia Restaurant, etc. Wine shop, Fenglin Pavilion and other seven places."

Yang Gongren said: "It seems that these seven places are the intelligence headquarters of the seven forces."

Shen Guang asked, "Do you want to take them all?"

"Our city of Ye has never suppressed spies from all sides. The whole city is like a wall with leaks on all sides. Therefore, these talents are so carelessly concentrated. This time, we must catch them all!"

Shen Guang cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, please send more people to help."

"I'll ask the Xuanjia Army to help you." Yang Tong handed over the troop command arrow.

……

Tianxia Winery is located in the east city of Yecheng. It covers an area of ​​three acres and is four floors high. A single taste, in line with the tastes of visitors from all walks of life.

The shopkeeper, surnamed Wu, is a middle-aged man in his forties, but the guests would not have thought that this restaurant, Li Tang, set up an intelligence center in Yecheng, just as the Sui Dynasty also had an intelligence network in Chang'an and Luoyang. Intelligence points were also set up in Yecheng and Taiyuan.

Li Yuan beat Xue Ju and his son to death with great difficulty, and obtained the Hehuang area as he wished, but in the end he made a wedding dress for the Sui Dynasty, allowing the other party to take away the most strategically valuable and richest area without bloodshed. Jincheng, Fanghan County, Xiping County, and Piaohe County, the depression in his heart can be imagined. In order to take the initiative in the negotiation, he did not hesitate to sacrifice a small number of spies to spread rumors. The purpose is naturally to disrupt the entire Sui Dynasty. Sui Yichao naturally couldn't march into Guanzhong on a large scale. At that time, whether it was a negotiation or a war, he would have a better chance of winning.

Of course, Li Yuan also knew that this possibility was unlikely, but Li Yuan didn't want to miss any glimmer of hope, and the soaring food prices in Yecheng, Taiyuan, and even the entire Bingzhou were the proud work of Li Yuan's intelligence point.

They spread the news of the defeat of the Sui army, which caused the food price to skyrocket in the Sui Dynasty, triggering a wave of rice rush. If the imperial court did not act in time to stabilize the food price, it would probably cause extremely serious social turmoil.

At midnight, the restaurant was closed, but the lights were still on in a spacious room on the third floor. The heavy curtains were drawn down, and the lights inside the room could not be seen from outside.

There were more than 30 people sitting in the room. Except for the restaurant samurai Zhan, the rest of them were not only shop owners from all walks of life, but also small leaders of various branch intelligence points.

"Although the food price in Yecheng has subsided, Wuzhou Commercial Bank and more than 30 peripheral forces have already satisfied the taste of the Sui Dynasty, so you don't have to worry."

The samurai glanced at everyone and said, "The task Chang'an gave us is to try our best to spread the news of the Turkic army going south, the fall of Taiyuan, and the fall of Guannei Road in Yecheng. North Korea, cause panic and turmoil in Yecheng as much as possible!"

Samurai Zhan is the younger brother of Li Tang Yingguo's warrior Zhan, and is the commander-in-chief responsible for collecting all information about the Sui Dynasty. Samurai Zhan has a gentle appearance and never fails to smile, but he is cruel and ruthless, so he has the nickname "Smiling Tiger".

His subordinates knew that he was vicious, so no one dared to object to his opinion.

Suddenly, there was a loud 'bang' from the first floor. This was the sound of the inner guard's kicking the door, which was particularly distant in the middle of the night.

The third floor fell silent all of a sudden, Samurai Zhan and others looked at each other, not knowing what happened. At this moment, there was a shrill scream from the stairs on the third floor. It was the sentry who had been killed.

The room suddenly became chaotic, and the samurai jumped up. He was the first to run to the door, and confessed while running: "Find a way to get out!"

He rushed out of the door and rushed up to the fourth floor. He wanted to destroy the important information hidden in a secret room. As soon as he went up to the fourth floor, dozens of soldiers from the Sui Army rushed up. Collided head-on with a group of little bosses running out of the room.

The soldiers of the Sui Dynasty raised their crossbows and shot at the same time. The dense arrows of the crossbows shot at the crowd more than ten steps away. There was a scream of pain, and seven or eight people were shot down.

The rest of the people retreated to the room and blocked the door with a table. Under the threat of death, their faces were extremely hideous.

Samurai Zhan stumbled and ran up to the fourth floor. In a small room where sundries were piled up at the end of the fourth floor, Samurai Zhan smashed open a small disguised door on the wall. There was actually a secret room in the sundry room.

This secret room is where he puts important information. There are no windows around, and bookshelves on three sides are filled with all kinds of collected information.

In one corner, there were more than a dozen huge camphor wood boxes, which contained their activity funds, as well as celebrity calligraphy and paintings, rare treasures, which were intended to be used to bribe officials of the Sui Dynasty, but at this time, Samurai Zhan could no longer take care of them. These are priceless treasures.

He was groping for something in the dark, and the screams from downstairs made him flustered. Finally, he found a box full of important documents, but he was nervous, and he was in the dark, so he just grabbed a corner. The box fell to the ground with a thud, scattering the paperwork inside.

It was too late for Samurai Zhan to clean it up. He took out the fire pocket, hit it twice with a flint, sparks burst out and finally ignited the fire pocket.

Several volumes bound together were found in the dark.

This stack of secret volumes not only contains a lot of important information collected, but also includes information on branches established in various counties of the Great Sui Dynasty, as well as a list of officials from the Sui Dynasty that were bought. Don's intelligence agency would be dealt a fatal blow.

He lit a list, before he could breathe a sigh of relief.

With a bang of a big foot, it stamped out the flames that had finally been ignited, and the eyes fell into darkness.
