Chapter 1221 Spy
Although Zhou Xu has withdrawn his troops from the Smith Kingdom, this does not mean that he is completely unconcerned about the situation here.
After all, the situation here is unclear, and there is the external threat of the greenskins. Even out of caution, he will send people to keep an eye on it.
And he did just that. He reached a consensus directly with Yalvet. Both sides sent out Pegasus Knights and Giant Eagle Knights to form reconnaissance teams, which took turns to monitor the Smith Kingdom from the air and confirm the latest developments here.
In this way, if the greenskins take any action, they can confirm the news in the first time and then take response.
At this moment, some information has been delivered to Zhou Xu.
"Rakshasa Republic..."
Zhou Xu's expression was rather subtle after understanding the situation.
Following the slave uprising, the Smith Kingdom split directly into two countries.
It cannot be said that he had not thought of this at all. After all, when he saw the mark, Zhou Xu already knew that there was a Chosen One on the opposite side causing trouble.
However, there is a tribe of female warriors between their Great Zhou and the Smith Kingdom. As he has a lot of things to do at home, he is too lazy to do any cross-border operations to add trouble to himself.
As of now, it seems that neither side can do anything to the other.
He had made a simple assessment of this matter before.
If the other side has no means to restrict Fisher, then once Fisher leads his troops back, the rebellion will be put down in a short time.
"Now it seems that there is a high probability that there is also a Vajra Realm warrior or a Saint Realm mage of the same level in the Luosha Republic. Otherwise, how could they restrict Fisher?"
Leaning back in his chair, Zhou Xu muttered to himself, slowly organizing the thoughts in his mind.
"But a strong man of this level can't possibly appear out of thin air, right?"
Appearing out of thin air is obviously unrealistic, but with limited information, Zhou Xu can only roughly guess that the chosen one should have traveled through time a long time ago, but in the environment of the Smith Kingdom, he has never shown up, but has been accumulating strength in secret.
I'm afraid they have been accumulating for many years, just waiting for this wave of rise.
The division of the Smith Kingdom into two countries was not a good thing, as it resulted in their original power being divided into two.
When they face the greenskins' attack again, they will most likely be defeated one by one.
Now that no one can do anything to the other, the best solution should be to negotiate peace, but the prerequisite is that both sides must reach a consensus.
In this way, the Smith Kingdom will have two high-end combat forces, and will be stronger than before.
But he still doesn't need to take the Smith Kingdom seriously.
Not to mention that the female warrior tribe is on their side. Even if they don't bring the female warrior tribe with them, with the two mages who have entered the saint realm, plus Qiansui, an extraordinary creature in the Vajra realm, they can easily fight three against two.
Of course, all of this is just his speculation at the moment.
The information available at this stage is too little, and he can only make rough guesses based on the limited information.
"Should I start my spy business?"
This situation made Zhou Xu think of the profession of "spy".
In fact, there is a similar profession within their Great Zhou, and that is the Inspection Department.
However, the work of the Inspection Bureau is mainly internal, while the work of spies is mainly external, lurking in other countries, responsible for intelligence collection, or carrying out some secret missions.
Before, their Great Zhou did not have much demand for spies. Take Copperforge Fort as an example. How could he send spies so that they would not be discovered by the dwarves of Copperforge Fort?
The answer is obvious. No matter how he sent them, they would be discovered. The species on both sides are different.
But as the coalition forces expand their battlefield, he will inevitably come into contact with more human forces in the future, and even have to coexist with them for a long time. In this case, the existence of spies becomes necessary.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu turned around and ordered someone to call Ye Jinghong, the director of the Inspection Department, over.
Obviously, he intended to leave the task of training spies to Ye Jinghong.
Ever since becoming the director of the Inspection Department, Ye Jinghong's presence has not been high, but this is exactly what is required for this position. He needs to lurk in the dark and monitor everything inside the Great Zhou while ensuring his own safety.
From corrupt officials to unruly people who secretly manipulate public opinion and incite public emotions, the Inspection Department has actually dealt with quite a few of them over the years.
It is considered to be a very important part of the current Da Zhou governance system.
"Your humble servant, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
"No need to be polite!"
Over the years, Ye Jinghong's face has become much more mature than before.
After asking Ye Jinghong to sit aside, Zhou Xu went straight to the point and talked to him about training spies.
"The work of the Inspection Bureau itself is actually somewhat similar to this. The biggest difference is that spies need to infiltrate other countries and integrate into an environment that is completely unfamiliar to them."
Zhou Xu had never been a spy and did not have professional knowledge in this area. At this moment, he could only try his best to tell Ye Jinghong some of the things he knew and even some of his ideas.
As for how to cultivate this problem in the future...
All I can say is that you have to believe in the talents under your command!
Ye Jinghong listened very carefully, and in the process, he roughly understood why their Majesty entrusted him with the task of training spies.
He had to admit that the work of spies did have something in common with their work as an inspector.
From this point of view, if one wants to train a spy, there is no one more suitable than him in the entire Great Zhou.
Of course, he still needs to go back and think about the specific training plan.
After all, this matter cannot be messed up. In the words of their Majesty, if this matter is messed up, it will become an international issue, which forces Ye Jinghong to treat it with caution.
Meanwhile, in the South...
According to the current progress of laying railway tracks in the southern border, steam trains are already able to bring people to most areas in the south, which also allows the entire immigration work to be carried out quickly and efficiently.
Since immigration often involves the entire family moving away, in addition to a large number of adults who have already prepared themselves mentally, there are also many children who have no choice but to be taken away by their parents.
Looking at the desolate environment and simple village before them, these children were in tears.
"So we gave up our life in Xishan City just to come here and eat dirt? Dad, you must be crazy! Maybe we can still go back in time!"
In response, his father just smiled and then exploded his brain.
"You know nothing. In a few years, you will know how wise your father's decision was!"
