The Imperial National Security Agency was divided into two according to Wu Feng and Gu Ji's vision. In addition to the Imperial National Security Governor, the newly established Imperial Security Bureau was responsible for investigating and dealing with various internal rebel forces within the empire and also taking into account espionage prevention. , anti-espionage agencies, Wu Feng originally thought that this would attract the opposition of Mo Lun, who was already appointed as the Imperial Minister of Justice. However, this time Mo Lun rarely expressed conditional approval. In addition to believing that a dominant family is not conducive to the regime. In addition to consolidating the two companies, which is conducive to competition and complementarity, one of the important reasons is that Molun also realized that it is difficult for the Imperial Overwatch Council to effectively supervise the security department. In this case, using two agencies with overlapping powers to supervise each other can It has a very good effect, and the Imperial Overwatch Council only needs to use one of them to supervise the other to achieve the desired purpose.
Diao Su still served as the director of the Imperial National Security Administration, and the Imperial Security Bureau, which was born out of the Imperial National Security Governor, was temporarily led by Gu Dengyun, who had been promoted to deputy director of the Imperial Intelligence Bureau. The big secret service finally stood up at this time. Take Molun's words, in order to protect the absolute authority of the imperial power centered on the emperor, the establishment of secret service agencies is inevitable. How to play the role of secret service agencies while limiting their side effects on civil rights and human rights is the key to the empire. It is a long-term and arduous task of the Control Council. It cannot be abandoned or inactive. It must be proactive, steady and strategic. This is what the Imperial Control Council, as the first Minister of Justice of the Empire, guides the Imperial Control Council to carry out the supervision of the two major security agencies of the Empire. The proposed three sentences and six words.
The two major security agencies do not have branches throughout the empire or abroad. They only set up a temporary contact point in each county capital to facilitate their work. The two major security agencies also work independently and implement vertical leadership. It is under the leadership of local government, including the Government Affairs Council, and is directly responsible to His Majesty the Emperor.
The establishment of the two major security agencies, coupled with the previously announced establishment of the Imperial Intelligence Service and the Imperial Intelligence Bureau, also announced the establishment of the special status of the four major agencies directly under the empire. The four major agencies are directly under the leadership of the emperor. It is neither responsible to the Imperial Council (Cabinet) nor to the Imperial Privy Council (the Imperial Intelligence Bureau is nominally affiliated with the Imperial Privy Council, but like the Imperial Intelligence Bureau, it is only responsible for providing intelligence support to the Imperial Privy Council in terms of personnel and daily business management. (separate column), only nominally subject to the supervision of the Imperial Overwatch Council, and these four institutions, plus the public Imperial Administration of the Interior, in fact constitute the most important tool to ensure the dominance of imperial power in the empire.
As the imperial capital gradually enters the climax of celebrations for His Majesty the Emperor's upcoming enthronement. As the commander-in-chief of the Empire's Central Continental Front, Cui Wenxiu has already crossed the northwest county boundary and entered North Luzon County, the defense area of his Central Continental Front. Cui Wenxiu met with the new Northwest Governor Gu Xinhai in Qingyang Prefecture, and requested that the Northwest County, as the choke point connecting the interior of the empire and its own defense line in the mainland, must ensure its own military material needs, especially weapons, armor, and grain. Gu Xinhai also obliged and expressed his absolute support for the supply. With the logistical support from the northwest, Cui Wenxiu could boldly embark on the journey to the Central Continent.
Cui Wenxiu chose to go to Northern Luzon County instead of Western Region County. First, the road expansion, repair and siege that connected the five prefectures in Western Region County had been approved by the Imperial Government Council and entered the construction stage. Taking advantage of the winter break to carry out large-scale construction has become the project that Western Region Governor Saibo is most concerned about. A large number of laborers from Northwest County and Beiyuan County poured into Western Region County to participate in this project. The project is divided into two sections. The two sections from Kashhar to Bega and from Qingyang to Bega are progressing simultaneously, setting off a new page in the history of construction in the Western Region. The full start of this project has also affected the original traffic through the five provinces of the Western Region to a certain extent. Most caravans have to take a detour to North Luzon or East Tengger, and it is winter, which also makes North Luzon This road became the most popular trade route.
Cui Wenxiu, who was marching westward with the Tenth Army Corps, received a notification from his old friend Hu Yanqiu, commander of the Seventh Army Corps, in Vito. The Luzon people had fully occupied the southern Five Elements Provinces controlled by the original Tik people, and directly announced These five provinces were announced to be merged into the Kingdom of Luzon. The Indian Governor-General was established. Except for a few small tribal provinces originally attached to the Tik people, only one of the six provinces in the Tik-controlled area, Lahore, was controlled by several parties, and the seventh was controlled by several parties. The Legion and the Luzon Army have also had small-scale duplications in the border areas. Fortunately, both sides have maintained a certain degree of restraint. The Seventh Legion is due to its lack of strength. The people of Luzon seemed to be more busy stabilizing their rule in the newly established governor-general, and the war did not expand further.
Ying Jianming from the Indian Army also sent an urgent letter to Cui Wenxiu, his new boss, Commander-in-Chief of the Mainland Front Army. The Hansen Alliance troops have entered the original Yakuan-controlled areas on a large scale, and have helped converts. The upper class of the Yakuan people in the Holy Spirit Church suppressed the lower class people who still insisted on believing in Niyeism. The situation in Yakuan changed day by day. This unstable mood has also affected the neighboring Mish tribe.
Although the troops of the Hansen League did not enter neighboring areas, they were affected by the bloody suppression of Niye believers in the Yakuan area. The people of the Mish tribe are also very panicked, fearing that with the support of the Hansen Alliance, the Holy Spirit Religion will also force people who believe in Romanism to convert to the Holy Spirit Religion. This panic has even spread to the entire north-central region of the Indian Kingdom. . The two provinces controlled by the Mish tribe have strongly requested to become the protectorate of the Tang Empire like the three northeastern provinces, which has also led to fierce quarrels within the Indian kingdom. Although the central government controlled by the Hyderabad tribe also hopes that the Tang Empire will The Tang Empire provided military power for protection, but opposed the formation of a real protectorate relationship like the three northeastern provinces. The top leaders of the Mish tribe believed that the Hyderabadis were ignoring the crisis that the Mish tribe might face for their own selfish purposes.
Fortunately, the Jerok Army has fully entered the Mish Tribe and has temporarily calmed down the quarrel between the Mish Tribe and the Hyderabadi people. However, the Mish Tribe, which has already had a grudge, publicly threatened to withdraw from the central government of the Indian Kingdom under the control of the Hyderabad Tribe. , directly signed a protection agreement with the Tang Empire and became the protectorate of the Datang Empire. The Hyderabad tribe also formally met with Pauling, the chief representative of the Tang Empire in the Indian Kingdom, and asked him to play the role of arbitrator and reject Mish Illegal demands of the tribe. Some high-level officials of the Solian tribe who are pro-Datang are secretly planning to require the three northeastern provinces and the Boluo province to join the Datang Empire and become the 18th administrative region of the Tang Empire, Solian County. This also caused a stir in Hyderabad. Great panic among people.
The messenger sent by Ying Jianming was very smart, and in a few words he could clearly introduce the current somewhat chaotic situation in De'an, Central and North India. Among them, the opinions of the upper class of the Mish people, the attitudes of the middle and lower classes, the thoughts of the Solian people, and the worries of the Hyderabadi people are clearly divided, vivid and eloquent.
Looking at the somewhat immature young officer in front of him, Cui Wenxiu admired this man's clear thinking. He was able to explain these complicated situations in a clear and detailed manner, which was enough to show that this messenger was not simple.
"What is your name? Any position in the Indian Legion?"
"Return to the Commander-in-Chief, my humble post is Guan Feng, intelligence officer of the Indian Army Staff Department." A standard military salute. The young officer heard his idol ask him, and he was so excited that even the white pockmarks on his face were glowing red.
"Well, that's good. Ying Jianming still has some talents under his command. Zicheng, your Tenth Army must work harder. The Indian Army is still waiting to be incorporated into the regular army of our empire. I hear It is said that His Highness the King of Qin has made it clear that only thirteen army legions will be established at present. Hey, Kang Jianguo is holding back his anger, and Ying Jianming is also secretly trying his best. Now the Privy Council is reorganizing hundreds of thousands of remnants of the Tanghe Empire, and Huangfu Tiancheng's original imperial guard only has three legions left. Don't let your tenth legion finally enter the siege and be squeezed out. That would become a big joke to our empire. Yes." Cui Wenxiu glanced sideways at Qiu Zicheng, the commander of the 10th Army who had been following him with a half-smile.
"Commander-in-Chief, our Tenth Army Corps is full of energy this time. We want to see blood on this Indian land and strengthen the momentum of our Tenth Army Corps. Lord Kang's Jerok Army Corps is the old leader of His Highness the King of Qin. , we can’t say, as for other brother troops, Zicheng has not been afraid yet." Qiu Zicheng has followed the commander-in-chief known as Cui Yanwang since he set off from the imperial capital, and he has learned a little about the commander-in-chief's temperament during the long journey. , that kind of subservient or overly modest attitude did not please him, so he didn't have so many scruples when speaking.
"Qiu Zicheng, you really have no ambition! Kang Jianguo is senior and the Jerok Army has been established for a long time. Does it scare you? Does the army's combat effectiveness have to be strong just because it has been established for a long time? So it turns out that our Western Xinjiang Army How did you defeat the Tang He Emperor's army?" Cui Wenxiu glared at the other party and said calmly: "Don't belittle yourself. Although the Tenth Army was established in a short period of time, this time is an opportunity. You should make good use of this opportunity to hone your skills. , the Luzon Army and the Hansen Alliance Army are not weak, I hope you can use this opportunity to show the momentum of the Tenth Army."
