Many people couldn't believe that Mao Xiang was arrested.
At least Chen Yu didn't believe it.
As the head of the Chen Dynasty's intelligence agency, Mao Xiang's abilities were obvious to all. This was the main reason why Chen Yu, who prided himself on "promoting talents only", did not replace this spy chief.
Of course, more people believe that he could not find such a senior and loyal intelligence officer to replace Mao Xiang in a short time.
But none of this matters anymore.
In Wang Zuo's words, the Jinyiwei, as an intelligence agency, has basically lost its operational function. Even if the entire Chen Dynasty concentrates its efforts to help the Jinyiwei recover, it will be impossible for the Jinyiwei to return to its current level within ten years.
As for Mao Xiang, even after being caught, he did not believe that Lin Hai was not in the fortress.
Back to the day when Wang Zuo ordered the boiling water to be dumped.
Wang Zuo and Xue Wuxia brought a large group of people and waited there for a long time, but unfortunately, no one came up.
Or maybe Wang Zuo guessed wrong.
Either the Jinyiwei were far more elite than they had imagined, or they were still able to endure in such an environment.
No matter which point it is, it is a slap in Wang Zuo's face.
As everyone knows, Wang Zuo is in a bad mood as long as Lin Hai is not present.
"Pour three more rounds of boiling water in to disinfect it. Then, the Death Squad, get to me and get to the bottom of what's going on down there."
Wang Zuo gave the order angrily.
Anyway, there are a lot of people lying in ambush at the cave entrance at the foot of the mountain. As long as Mao Xiang and his men are there, they will not be able to escape.
The results were in line with everyone's expectations.
Mao Xiang, another Jinyiwei Tongzhi, and hundreds of the most elite Jinyiwei were all in the sewer.
Well, the main reason they didn't launch a final charge or escape directly the way they came was that they were all knocked unconscious by the smoke.
Without preparation, no one could withstand the stench in the air, which was already pushing people to the brink of death, being increased by several levels.
What's more, at this time Mao Xiang just ordered his men to take off their masks and start eating, and even he himself was biting into the hard biscuits in order to lead by example...
Of course, Wang Zuo has ordered that this case be written into the archives of the Intelligence Department and added to the textbooks of the Intelligence Department so that the younger students can analyze it carefully.
After all, he killed the most elite members of the Jinyiwei in one breath. Even if these essences smelled really unacceptable now, it was Wang Zuo's greatest achievement in his career, and he had to show off.
As for how the Jinyiwei files recorded that his boss and a group of core members were defeated by the enemy using methane gas, that was not Wang Zuo's concern.
Two days later, according to the intelligence confessed by the Jinyiwei, another Jinyiwei deputy governor and his subordinates lurking in Xijing were arrested. The Jinyiwei branches that had infiltrated Zhaoyang and other Qinghe cities were attacked, and their personnel were either killed or captured...
In Lin Hai's words, he had never felt so safe.
As for Mao Xiang, he was very tough and didn't say a word in the dungeon.
Although Mao Xiang now believed that Lin Hai was not in the fortress, he suddenly realized when he saw another Jinyiwei Tongzhi also being taken to the dungeon.
Calculating the time, even if one of his men confessed, it would be impossible for this information to be delivered to Xijing so quickly, let alone capture the person and bring him to him.
He knew that Wang Zuo had let him see this on purpose, clearly a show-off by the victor.
He had also planned such a plot in his mind. If he captured Wang Zuo, how would he show off his victory...
Mao Xiang understood that Qinghe had mastered a method that could quickly transmit information. Such a method must be stable, reliable and replicable on a large scale, otherwise he would not have known about it.
Mao Xiang knew, however, that the Qinghe people would not let him know the specific method, even though he was filled with curiosity. His greatest wish now was that Lin Hai would order his execution in a fit of rage. This would spare him some torture and let the prince know that even though he was incompetent, he was still loyal, and perhaps even spare his family's lives.
As for his subordinates, well, forget it, just let them be. Even if they are recruited, it’s better to let as many of them as possible survive.
When Mao Xiang was in a daze in the dark dungeon and trying hard to prepare himself mentally to avoid being unable to withstand the torture, Chen Yu changed the battle plan in anger. A cavalry unit of the Chen Dynasty broke away from the main group and headed straight for Zhaoyang.
In Chen Yu's opinion, the greatest achievement of Mao Xiang's westward expedition was probably the confirmation of Tang Tong's treason.
Although the drama that Tang Tong staged on the border, oh no, according to Lin Hai, this should be called a joint exercise, caused the Chen Dynasty central government to suffer a lot of losses when formulating war plans, but it was discovered in time, and Chen Yu did not lead the army to rush into the trap of the Qinghe people.
For this reason, as a broad-minded future emperor, the current regent, Prince Chen Yu, showed leniency to Mao Xiang's family before knowing whether Mao Xiang was dead or alive. Well, he only implicated three clans, which can be considered merciful.
However, Wang Zuo told Mao Xiang this "good news" with a smile. Mao Xiang, who endured multiple tortures without shedding a tear, fainted directly. That's another story.
Blood can make people calmer, especially if it is someone else's blood.
So Chen Yu didn't let himself stay in the angry mood for too long.
After personally witnessing the collective execution of a bunch of Tang Tong's unsuspecting distant relatives within the Chen Dynasty, Chen Yu once again began to think calmly.
