"The meticulous work of the Tang Dynasty is really pervasive, which makes people frightened. The combat power of the western region trading houses should not be underestimated. Before today, I could hardly imagine that the penetration of the Tang Dynasty into the country has reached this level."

Mohad called Sai Dianchi to his side, and chatted with him to relieve boredom, "It is shocking that half of the first batch of recruiting teams going to the East were destroyed by them. For this reason, the elder had to chase To Nissa City and other places. And the results of his investigation are really terrible.

"Among the local nobles, officials, and forces of all sizes, there are shadows of Tang Dynasty espionage everywhere. Some people have been used by the other party, providing various military and political secrets, helping to do many things, and they don't know the real details of the other party.

"They thought that they were only cooperating with some forces in the country, but they didn't know that these forces belonged to the Western Regions Trading Company! Now, just mentioning the name of the Western Regions Trading Company makes people frightened.

"To this day, the Great Elder has killed more than two hundred famous traitors and sycophants in many places, more than a thousand people have been imprisoned, and countless people have been implicated! It can be said that the entire eastern region has been killed. Shrouded in a cloud of terror!"

Speaking of this, Mohad's eyes showed a deep worry, and there was a trace of fear that could not be concealed, "I don't know when the Tang people entered our country. According to the current situation, I'm afraid their layout has been around for many years, otherwise it would be impossible to reach this scale.

"It's also to blame that the nobles in those places are short-sighted and only seek profit, which is why they are used by the other party.

"I heard that many local dignitaries joined forces with merchants at first—collusion between officials and merchants is a rule since ancient times. Everyone is used to it. There is nothing to criticize, but they can't identify each other as a secret agent of the Tang Dynasty, and they have very little contact with each other. Secret, leaked all kinds of important things, then damn it!"

After saying this, Mohad let out a long sigh, not knowing what to express.

Sai Dianchi's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled indifferently: "Although the power of the Tang Dynasty is strong, under the thorough investigation of the elders, within ten months, they have exposed a lot? They can let the first batch of recruits The team lost nearly half, but when destroying the second batch of conscripted teams, only one of the four operations succeeded.

"The other three times were suppressed, and in one of them, the other party was surrounded and killed by the elders before he started to act. It is conceivable that the other party can act secretly. That's all, now I can no longer make waves!"

Mohad nodded slightly, quite agreeing with Sai Dianchi's words.

The facts are similar to what Sai Dianchi said. After the action taken by the Great Temple, the Western Regions Commercial Bank's actions against the second batch of conscripted teams have indeed gained a lot and suffered heavy losses.

It is a very risky move to make a small fortune. It depends on excellent planning, careful arrangement, and thunderous action. Once an accident occurs, it is easy to lose everything.

"This place is not far from the battlefield. It's hard to say whether Tang Chao's secret work will continue to act. Our team must not travel on business. You should keep an eye on it. If there are any unusual traces, don't let them go easily!"

Mohad said sternly to Sai Dianchi, "Our team is the main force of the third batch of conscripted teams. There must be no difference, otherwise it will harm the national war, and we must be held accountable afterwards. Don't be careless!"

Sai Dianchi patted his chest and promised, "Elder, just rest assured, I will watch over you

The certificate will not give Tang Chaoxi a chance! "

When he was resting on the wasteland that night, Sai Dianchi pretended to be patrolling the team, and arranged many people to monitor everywhere. He was about to rest when he was told by Zhang Changan to let him go.

"I don't need to say much about the situation. Simply put, our actions must be successful!"

When Sai Dianchi entered the tent, he found that there were still many people inside. Although they all had the faces and clothes of the big cannibal, they must not be the big cannibal monks. Zhang Changan was talking.

Seeing Sai Dianchi come in, Zhang Changan said to him: "The operation is tonight, is there any problem with your people?"

Sai Dianchi's heart shook, and he said hastily: "Commander Zhang, don't worry, my people will obey orders at any time!",

Zhang Chang'an nodded slightly, "The key to action is fire oil. As long as large-scale igniting of supplies and wildernesses, the team will naturally be in chaos. This is how we fish in troubled waters, attack and kill the high-level officials of the Great Temple, and cause the entire team to collapse. So how Getting the fire oil and then distributing the fire oil to various locations is the key."

The Red Sea controlled by Dashi is rich in fire oil. In terms of output, it is much more than that in Datang. In Datang's internal wars, there were not many wars that used fierce fire oil, and the number was not large.

But in Dashi, this is definitely a common weapon in war. Especially when defending a city, it can cause great damage and hindrance to the siege army. Because of this, the team recruited this time will carry a large amount of kerosene.

"Mohad also knows the key to fire oil, and he controls them very tightly. He sent his confidant guards. We have to get them in advance and bring them to various places in the team. I'm afraid it will not be easy." Sai Dianchi talked about the matter.

Zhang Changan waved his hand, disapprovingly: "Do you really think that all the fire oil we need for our actions comes from the team? If that's the case, how can we guarantee the effect of our actions?"

Sai Dianchi opened his eyes wide, "What does Commander Zhang mean?"

Zhang Chang'an said indifferently: "Western Region Commercial Firm has been in Dashi for many years. Since we know that kerosene is a unparalleled weapon and is of great benefit to actions, how can we not buy it in advance? Right now, there is a lot of kerosene on each of our monks. Enough to cause the first wave of chaos."

Sai Dianchi suddenly realized that with the first wave of chaos, it would be much easier for the monks of the western region trading houses to take advantage of the chaos to seize the fire oil for the supply camp and expand the fire.

Next, Zhang Changan made the last arrangement for tonight's action, confirming many details.

A few years ago, Zhang Changan went deep into the enemy camp outside Huairong City in the northern border of the Tang Dynasty, inducing rebellion and chaos among the Khitan army, and finally helped the army win a key victory.

Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and is an artifact that supports offline reading. huanyuanapp.org

Now, in this foreign country thousands of miles away, Zhang Changan is in a more dangerous situation, facing a more complicated situation, but also trying his best to stir up the situation and take huge risks for the army to fight head-on.

When Zhang Changan was having a secret conversation with the crowd, he didn't know that a group of elite monks rushed to the camp and directly met the leader of the team, Mohad. And the leaders of this group of elite monks were none other than Husu Nadine and Satuk.

"Aren't you two under the orders of the Great Elder? I don't know why you came here overnight?" Mohad met Husu Nadine and Satuk in the big tent, exchanged a few words, and then got straight to the point.

Some time ago, the Great Elder of the Great Temple went to the east, led the Overwatch Council to picket the secret work of the Tang Dynasty, and asked Su Su Nadine to go there. The latter, after all, once presided over the Black Khan

The National Oversight Institute has fought a lot with Tang Dynasty secret agents, and their experience and insight are useful.

But Satuk didn't follow, he has been doing his own thing behind - according to Husu Nadine's arrangement, monitoring all the whereabouts of Sai Dianchi.

"The duty of the lower officials is to picket the secret works of the Tang Dynasty, especially the infiltration of the secret works of the Tang Dynasty into the interior of the Great Temple. These days, the lower officials followed the elders to move around, arrested and killed many monks in the Western Regions, and tortured them. A lot of people, more understanding of their situation."

Suddenly, Nadine said unhurriedly, appearing to be full of hills and valleys in his chest, "The reason why we came to the elder today is because we learned through clues that there may be secret works of the Tang Dynasty hidden in the elder's team, and if we don't guess If it is wrong, its strength may not be small!"

Hearing this, Mohad was startled. Although he is one of the five elders of the Great Temple, he would not lose his composure, but the matter is so important that he cannot bear the responsibility. unrealistic.

"Who is it? Have you checked it out? The evidence is solid?" Mohad asked immediately.

Su Nadine shook his head slightly, "If the evidence is solid, we will directly notify the elders to arrest the person. It is because the evidence is not enough that we need the elders to cooperate, confirm the suspicion of this person, and make corresponding preparations!"

Hearing Su Nadine's words, Mohad's eyes calmed down, and his mind became more thoughtful.

During the extraordinary period, Mullen gave the Grand Elder of the Great Temple and the Overwatch Council much higher power than before, and their status was overnight, surpassing almost everyone.

With great power in your hands, you will naturally not be willing to be lonely. The situation is urgent, and business affairs are of course the first, but personal desires will never really disappear. After all, what you get in your hands is real. In the process of dealing with official business, by the way, seek some personal gain for yourself, no one can tell if it is wrong.

In just ten months, the Great Elder arrested and killed more than 200 people, imprisoned more than 1,000 people, cut off tens of thousands of people, big and small, and vacated a lot of positions and interests, and his subordinates should arrange them first. Today, the personal power of the Great Elder and the strength of the Overwatch Council have grown unprecedentedly.

As the five elders of the Great Temple, Mohad naturally knew that the previous elders had similar power, and although the elders had a higher status, they were limited. But judging from the current behavior, after this battle, the top management of the Great Temple will probably be the Four Great Elders and one Supreme Elder.

What Mohad is afraid of now is that the Great Elder and the Overwatch Council will take advantage of the opportunity of picketing the Tang Dynasty's spy work to attack some officials in their ranks. Even if it's just a temporary investigation, in such a critical period, their positions need to be replaced.

One's own team is the capital of one's achievements in the national war. If the national war is unfavorable, it is also the last reliance to ensure one's status after the war. If because of the actions of the Overwatch Council, the Great Elder and the opponent's people put people in his hands, it will inevitably affect his own wings and reduce his influence in the team.

This is not what Mohad wants to see.

So after hearing Su Nadine say that he did not have sufficient evidence, Mohad calmed down a lot, and the look in the other party's eyes was no longer so urgent, and he became calm and relaxed.

"Who do you suspect?" Mohad asked calmly, throwing stones to ask for directions before deciding on his own attitude. If there were spies in the team, he would be more willing to find them out by himself. This would be his own credit, rather than being intervened by the Overwatch Council, which would only make him appear to be dereliction of duty.
