Journey to the head

Chapter 157 How to deal with it
The Yunshan faction's intelligence team has only been established for two years, but it has already begun to play its role.

Currently, the Intelligence Team is headed by Lin Le, and ten more thoughtful, sociable, but spiritually gifted disciples have been transferred to Lin Le's command.Since the establishment of the intelligence team, it has recruited a group of informants, mainly mortal servants and unmotivated casual cultivators, in the five cities of Meihuafang, Baojingfang, Shahefang, Fanglanfang and Jiuzhifang.

Disciples of the Yunshan Sect only serve as intelligence officers, transmitting intelligence and sorting out, integrating and making judgments, and as one-way contacts for informants, and do not personally participate in the collection of intelligence.Perhaps when the Yunshan Sect really grows into a giant in the future, it will train its disciples as specialized guest talents.

But the current batch of informants is enough.Especially mortal servants, in the eyes of monks from all walks of life, have always regarded the mortals who serve them diligently in the market as mere tools, and many times they do not realize that they need to set up defenses in front of mortals.Except for some occasions where they talked behind closed doors, their words and deeds were often seen by the inconspicuous servants.

The waiter in the restaurant, the waiter in the shop, the waiter in the romantic place. This network was slowly woven, and a large amount of information began to gather on Bichao Mountain.Even because there is too much information and too few manpower, the intelligence team currently only collects and analyzes two major categories of intelligence.

The first is business transaction information.Which raw materials have started to increase in price, which goods have been sold out, which areas have a bumper harvest this year, etc., etc., can be used by the Yunshan School to improve their business projects, develop new business categories, or simply buy locally and sell in other places to make a profit. A quick buck.

The second is the movements of Yunshan Sect’s neighbors.Kongjiabao recruited more craftsmen and expanded its ore production; Shahe helped Han Wen book the Baihua Building of Baojingfang and hosted a banquet for the leader of the Shouzhuo Sect; a group of monks from the Linglu Sect suddenly left the city after resting in Shazhoufang. One day later Only one person returned covered in blood
At present, what restricts the development of the intelligence team is nothing else but the speed of information transmission.In this world where there is no telephone network and we can only rely on communication symbols and telescopes, the furthest information from Meihuafang takes two to three days to be safely transmitted back. Therefore, when integrating intelligence, we need to consider the various errors caused by this time difference. .

In any case, after the establishment of the intelligence team, the Yunshan faction was finally no longer deaf and blind, and could more accurately judge the surrounding situation and situation.

This time, the six foundation-building sects in Liangxiang County recruited casual cultivators and took advantage of the Shuangyefang Carnival to launch sabotage operations. The information was also passed back by informants from Fanglanfang and Jiuzhifang, and There were a few casual cultivators who kept their mouth shut and even told the gathering place in Chongming County when they were drunk with flower wine.

After Lu Gan learned about it, he directly invited Gu Nichang out. Unfortunately, the information lagged behind. By the time Gu Nichang arrived, the place was already empty.

Lu Gan could conclude that this group of casual cultivators carrying out sabotage missions had mixed into Shuangyefang with the flow of passengers.

Hearing this, I thought that there were a group of dangerous enemies lurking in the seemingly bustling market, and everyone present looked ugly.The most frightening thing is that before these people take action, they can't tell the difference and can't prevent it in advance.

"Master, now we can only mobilize the elite forces of each faction to garrison." Zheng Duan has just entered the late stage of Qi training. In addition to his outstanding performance in the past two years, he has been promoted to the second grade of the inner sect and served as the deacon of foreign affairs. He is currently He strived to make his own voice heard in the sect, and now expressed his own views, "Contact allies and vassals, and send hundreds of elites to garrison at various points in the city. The leader once told us that 'grid management' I think it’s a good concept to use here.”

"The entire city is divided into grid blocks, and the elites are equally responsible for each grid. The leader and Elder Gu are in the middle to coordinate. In this way, no matter where they attack, we can suppress them immediately."

Everyone at the meeting nodded. Lu Qian smiled and asked Lin Le: "What do you think?" "If it specifically suppresses the murderer, Junior Brother Zheng's plan is naturally a safe move. However, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days. The reason is that these thieves can hide all the time when they see that we are strong, but can our elites be stationed here all the time? We have to find a way to lure these thieves out. "

After listening to Lin Le's words, Zheng Duan looked ashamed. He had to admit that although Senior Brother Lin was not very talented, he was very thorough in terms of management, handling, and resourcefulness.The disciples privately felt that Lin Le was somewhat like Lu Qian, but it was a pity that
Lu Gan nodded appreciatively: "So, what do you think is a better way to lure the thief out?"

"The enemies are mainly casual cultivators who are greedy for life and afraid of death. They are particularly precious about their lives. They haven't taken action yet because they feel that the defensive loopholes in the city are not obvious. Once they take action, they may not be able to escape and dare not take action. Therefore, we openly Not only cannot the defense be increased, but the defense must be removed, creating loopholes in the defense." Lin Le said eloquently, "Only if they feel safe enough will they take action."

That night, several messengers set out in a hurry to deliver Lu Gan's latest orders to the Frost Leaf Alliance allies, Qingli Mountain and Liuhua Valley.

On the second day, the ninth day of June, the first "Shenji Pavilion" cup competition officially opened. Coupled with the ongoing recruitment meeting, the entire central circle of Shuangyefang was crowded with people.

The "Arena" hosts single-player competitions for casual cultivators, while the "Multi-Function Venue" hosts single-player competitions for sect monks.The top eight in both categories will be rewarded, and there will be a friendly competition between the top three casual cultivators and the top three sect cultivators.

Thanks to the large number of flyers distributed in the early stage, as well as the co-organized two other grand events with 300% off food and accommodation and free travel expenses, this group competition attracted more than [-] casual cultivators to participate. It took a whole morning. When the huge duel table was hung up outside the arena, it was already noon, and the real game had to start in the afternoon.

The sect is no less willing to give in. Now there is an undercurrent in Chongming County, and all the sects and factions are holding back their strength.Therefore, when Lu Gan invited him, Linglu, Shahe, the Kong family, and Shouzhuo all sent their teams to participate. They wanted to train their troops in the arena first, understand the opponent's level, and if they could defeat the enemy first and improve their morale, That couldn't be better.

Along with the list of group duels, there are several huge signs hanging up, which provide analysis, predictions, and explanations of the competition. Especially on the sect side, a brief introduction to the characteristics of the monks of each sect is also added.

Under these big signs, the official handicap of Shuangyefang started lively. A monk shouted at the top of his voice: "This is the first round. No one knows the players on the field, and we are not good either." Set the odds randomly, and when the first round is over, we will set the odds for each qualified player, so everyone can bet happily!"

"I'm optimistic about the Yunshan Sect." A little monk said excitedly, "They are the host, so they will definitely not slap themselves in the face. When the time comes, I will bet on the Yunshan Sect."
