Chapter 371 Information Network

Completing the transformation of the first formation of the North Gulf Fleet of the Nanyang Navy is only the first step in the transformation of the Navy.

The next step is to find a naval admiral.

The top ten naval generals in ancient China include Zhou Yu in the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Rengui in the Tang Dynasty, Li Bao and Zhang Hongfan in the Southern Song Dynasty, Yu Tonghai in the late Yuan Dynasty, Zheng He, Deng Zilong, Yu Dayou and Zheng Chenggong in the Ming Dynasty, and finally Shi Lang in the Qing Dynasty. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, Deng Shichang had developed into an iron-clad ship.

Among the generals, the earliest Zhou Yu was a figure in the Three Kingdoms period.

The Battle of Changping is over, and the next battle is the Battle of Julu. After the Battle of Julu ended, the Qin Dynasty was ready to join the historical process of the wilderness. From the Three Kingdoms, there is a Western Han Dynasty in the middle.

Therefore, it is basically impossible for Ouyang Shuo to obtain any one of them through the normal way of subduing them.

The only way is to go through the recruiting hall or the summoning talisman.

Not to mention the one-year cooldown period for the recruiting hall. As for the summoning talisman, not to mention that it is extremely difficult to find, even if you get the summoning talisman, how can you be so lucky that you just summoned a naval general.

In this regard, Ouyang Shuo was really helpless.

The strategy formulated by Ouyang Shuo to form a powerful navy has a long way to go.

What he can do is to actively reserve all kinds of warships, especially large ships. At the same time, Pei Donglai was ordered to train the sailors continuously, so as to prepare for the expansion of the navy in the future.

The problem is that if large-scale reserves of warships and sailors are not used for a long time, it will cause a waste of resources, which is not advisable.

Therefore, what Ouyang Shuo can really do is really limited, he can only take one step at a time.

***********

March twenty-eighth.

Black Snake approached Ouyang Shuo and reported the work results of the Black Snake Guard for a month.

After a month of careful preparation, the intelligence stations of the Black Snake Guards located in the nine royal cities have already begun formal operation.

The Black Snake Guard has more than 370 mercenaries as the core, and NPC intelligence personnel from various intelligence stations are supplemented, and the total number of members reaches more than 500.

In addition, the commanders of the intelligence stations also poured a large sum of money and set up a large number of eyeliners in Wangcheng, including market vendors, beggars, women in brothels, coolies at the docks, etc., all of them are included.

Although they are inconspicuous, they can bring a lot of information to the Black Snake Guard.

In the next step, the goal of the Black Snake Guard is to take down the two hard bones of the maids and servants around the dignitaries and the gangster gang in Wangcheng.

In this way, the Black Snake Guard basically established a complete intelligence network in Wangcheng.

Of course, due to limited time, limited funds, and limited personnel, whether it is the eyeliner that has been laid out or the target that is about to be shot, it is the general public. The real high-end eyeliner still needs to penetrate slowly.

Some eyeliners were of low status when they were first deployed, and basically they could not hear any important information. This requires the cooperation of the Black Snake Guards to help them gradually gain momentum.

For example, a selected beggar is to be trained to become the head beggar in a certain area. A girl from a brothel wants to give her a red card. A coolie, Jean helps him gain a foothold on the docks.

Etc., etc......

All in all, cultivating eyeliner is a complicated and long-term work, so don't be impatient.

Only in this way can the eyeliner cultivated step by step be truly faithful and reliable, and they will also be the most precious resource of the Black Snake Guard in the future.

For players, they mainly focus on the guilds and territories.

Needless to say, the guilds naturally placed eyeliners in the major guilds by buying or joining the guilds. I don't expect them to hear any important news, as long as they understand the general trend.

Similarly, if these "eyeliners" can be helped to improve their status in the guild, the value will be even greater. If you can break into the core leadership of the guild, it will be a real success.

Unlike NPCs, there are hidden dangers in the loyalty of players.

Therefore, some core guilds are dispatched by Snake Guards himself to join them and play a core role.

Basically, the top ten guilds in the major royal cities have Snake Guards in them. Even cooperative guilds such as [Shangxue Meigui Mercenary Group], [Qingfeng Pavilion] and [Tingyu Tower] are no exception.

For the territory, there is a contact point implicitly stationed.

Then the person in charge of the contact point will weave an intelligence network in the territory.

Because of the particularity of the territory, it was decided that the person in charge of the contact point should choose an NPC. If it is a player, it is very easy to arouse the suspicion and suspicion of the lord.

Therefore, the Black Snake Guard is conducting special training for the NPC intelligence personnel of each intelligence station, trying to train a group of elite spies and spies, especially a group of intelligence personnel who can stand alone.

Because it is still in special training, the penetration of the territory has not yet begun.

Finally, the eyeliner laid down by the [Rattlesnake Mercenary Corps] was absorbed by the Black Snake Guards as a supplement. So far, the intelligence network formed by the Black Snake Guards has surfaced.

After Ouyang Shuo listened, he was a little dumbfounded.

If it can be carried out according to Black Snake's plan, it will be great. In the future China region, no matter whether it is the royal city, or the guilds and territories, any troubles and troubles cannot escape Ouyang Shuo's eyes.

Of course, a plan is a plan, and it will be difficult to actually implement it.

Even with a large group of professionals and Ouyang Shuo's financial support. To lay out such an information network, even the most basic skeleton, will take at least a year or more.

Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo allocated another 20,000 gold coins to Black Snake from the previously withheld funds.

For Ouyang Shuo's full support, Black Snake was naturally extremely excited. What he is doing now is much more exciting than the small fights he did during the [Rattlesnake Mercenary Corps] period.

Black Snake felt that the already cooled blood in his body began to boil again.

Ouyang Shuo supported the construction of the Black Snake Guard because he sensed some kind of crisis from the Black Snake's narration. Since the Black Snake Guard can set up such an intelligence network, what about big forces like Di Chen and the others?

Perhaps, a territory is just the tip of the iceberg floating on the sea from the major forces.

The big forces may not be able to compare with Ouyang Shuo in judging the direction of the game and managing the territory. But in other respects, they were about to beat Ouyang Shuo by several blocks.

The establishment of an intelligence network is naturally the proper meaning of the problems of the major forces.

Careless!

The battle of Lianzhou, the defection and mutiny of the three territories was an omen. Di Chen's intelligence network actually penetrated into the Lianzhou Basin long ago.

Unfortunately, Ouyang Shuo didn't know it yet.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shuo couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and he told the Black Snake of his deduction.

Hei Snake was also silent for a while after listening.

After a long time, the black snake said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, my lord, I will personally preside over the investigation work in Lianzhou. Within two months, I must find out all the nails that the major forces have placed in the Lianzhou Basin."

What the black snake said was to find out, not to remove it.

After listening, Ouyang Shuo nodded in agreement. Some nails, as long as you keep a close eye on them, you don't have to get rid of them, maybe they can have unexpected effects.

"Then please!"

Black Snake nodded, but did not speak.

In addition to building an intelligence network, the Black Snake Guard also heard some interesting information.

What attracted Ouyang Shuo's attention the most was naturally the progress between [Star Alliance] and [While of Wisp].

"The scandal between Xingzhe Zhichen and Qingsi is purely nonsense." Black Snake first clarified the gossip, and then said: "It's [a thread] that has really been pushed to the edge of a cliff by [Star Alliance]."

"It seems that it's time for us to take action!"

Ouyang Shuo smiled faintly, looking confident.

Hearing this, Black Snake looked at Ouyang Shuo in surprise. He couldn't figure out what kind of trump card Ouyang Shuo had. He was confident that he could win food from [Star Alliance].

Although the [Star Alliance] has just been established, there is [Sword Qi] in Kyoto as a strong support, and Handan County outside echoes it. It is not easy to shake them.

Not to mention others, even Xingzhezhichen's family, its strength cannot be underestimated.

Since the hidden family has decided to be born, they will naturally do their best. Ouyang Shuo wanted to slap [Star Alliance] in the face, but he would have to pay a price.

Ouyang Shuo naturally wouldn't explain anything to the black snake.

In the afternoon of that day, he brought four personal guards and sent him to Kyoto, where he lived in the Shanhai City's Kyoto office.

The commander of the Black Snake Guard Kyoto Station is White Snake.

Of the Nine Kingdoms, Kyoto is the top priority, and the White Snake is also one of the best commanders among the Nine Commanders.

White Snake reported the specific information to Ouyang Shuo in detail.

It is reported that under the oppression of the [Star Alliance], [A Wisp] has almost fallen into chaos recently. The entire guild basically could not purchase rare materials, and members were already dissatisfied.

Under the pressure of [Star Alliance] step by step, the attitude of [While Wisp]'s guild leader has been changing and has begun to loosen. Perhaps, the distance to surrender is at hand.

Hearing this, Ouyang Shuo said calmly, "Help me make an appointment with Qingsikou tomorrow."

"no problem."

The Black Snake Guard has been stationed in the capital for a month, and there is still a way to connect with Qingsikou. As a professional intelligence officer, White Snake would not ask the reason and purpose of Ouyang Shuo's actions.

For him, it's all about following orders.

After Black Snake left, Ouyang Shuo stayed in the room alone, planning for tomorrow's meeting.
