Chapter 52: Recognizing a Big Brother
Seeing that Luo Jiaxing had hit the nail on the head, Zhong Min smiled and explained, "The reason is simple. In the past, your usual security methods were all based on defense, which was not wrong. After all, protecting the prince's safety is the ultimate goal of all security. However..."
"However, if you're in a relatively closed, unchanging environment, this method is only adequate, such as the security within Prince Mu's mansion. But if the environment changes, simple defense is often too passive, even impossible to defend against. This situation is quite common. The prince often travels to various places, especially those that are far away and crowded with people and complex environments. If an assassin ambushes you mid-route or anywhere else, simple defense will be completely inadequate."
Zhong Min spoke succinctly and efficiently about the most important and crucial points. She believed that Xie Feng and others would agree after listening to her, and the facts were just as she expected.
"Yes, you've said too much. The prince nearly died twice because he was shot by assassins on his way to other places. In that situation, it was really hard to guard against!" Xie Feng clapped his hands, and gradually became excited. His eyes lit up, and the look he gave Zhong Min changed dramatically. "So, according to you, what role can this intelligence system play in this regard?"
Seeing Xie Feng's understanding, Zhong Min remained calm and continued, "At times like these, besides defense, prevention is the most important thing. The best thing is to discover all possible hidden dangers in advance and eliminate them before they strike. Therefore, the role of intelligence is revealed at this time. Of course, the scope of intelligence here is very broad, and it requires specific operators to make comprehensive analysis and judgments based on the actual situation and various experiences and abilities. Such abilities cannot be acquired overnight and often require a cumulative process."
"Well said, very well said!" Xie Feng immediately slammed the table and stood up. Apparently, clapping alone couldn't express his excitement. Although he had only listened to Zhong Min's relatively simple introduction and hadn't seen the specific implementation, he was already convinced of Zhong Min's ability.
He said directly, "Zhong Min, right? I, Xie Feng, am a rough man, and I say whatever I want. Before, I saw you as just a maid, so I didn't take you seriously at all. But after hearing what you said just now, I, Xie, realized that there are always people who are better than you. From now on, I will no longer have any opinions and will obey your orders and instructions in everything."
Hearing Xie Feng's words, the other three deputy commanders naturally followed suit. Seeing this, Zhong Min stood up and said to Xie Feng, "Commander Xie, you're too polite. From now on, we will work together and help each other. There will be no such thing as orders or dispatches. Although I have ideas, without your assistance and implementation, it will be difficult to move forward. Besides, aren't we all heading towards the same goal? So, if Commander Xie doesn't mind, Zhong Min will call you Big Brother."
"Okay, you are a straightforward girl. We can't let you call me brother for nothing. If you have any problems in the future, just tell me. I will definitely support you!" Xie Feng laughed loudly, and was obviously very satisfied with Zhong Min's personality.
Zhong Min laughed as he heard this. He bowed to Xie Feng like a Jianghu person and called out crisply, "Thank you, big brother!"
Suddenly, the initially awkward and awkward atmosphere became more familiar. Xie Feng and Zhong Min sat down together, drinking tea instead of wine, and the conversation became lively. This transformation made Luo Jiaxing, who was standing by, look at Zhong Min with new eyes.
"Sister, you just said you wanted to build a complete security system for us. Just tell me what we should do!" Xie Feng was impatient and quickly turned the topic back to business. To be honest, he was already feeling impatient and wanted to get started right away.
Seeing this, Zhong Min knew the time was ripe, so he took out the document he had written in advance and said, "From now on, we must begin implementation. I have written down all the specific operational details. Of course, these mainly refer to the deployment of defenses. You can adjust the existing deployment based on this information. For example, add four high-point sentries who can communicate at any time using flag signals or light codes..."
Zhong Min carefully explained the plan she had written in advance. It primarily addressed gaps in the palace's existing defenses, adding practical protections and counter-attack covert defenses. She didn't completely overturn the previous plan, but rather built upon it to address any gaps and shortcomings. This not only affirmed some of Xie Feng's previous measures, but also significantly improved and strengthened their security and controllability.
While explaining in detail, Zhong Min paid attention to the expressions of the crowd. Seeing that they all looked very convinced and appreciative, he felt more relieved.
After saying this, she concluded, "Besides this, I will also reschedule time to teach you how to train specialized security guards, forming a special team with security awareness and professional capabilities. This will greatly enhance its practicality. Of course, regarding outdoor defense, the external deployment does not require major changes. What really needs to change is the way you think about problems and your ability to detect danger and eliminate hidden dangers in advance. I will gradually demonstrate this in actual operations in the future."
"Hey my! Sister, where did you learn all these good things? Big brother, I've really broadened my horizons today. I didn't think I was a top-notch guard for the prince, but seeing all these things you have, tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Xie Feng sighed three times and said with emotion: "I really feel that my previous deployment and ideas were as childish as a three-year-old child!"
"Big brother, you're too modest. Actually, you did quite well in the past. A lot of what I've done here is based on what you did before." Zhong Min calmly changed the subject after Xie Feng asked about his background. "By the way, when the time comes, you can select thirty of the existing guards to come and receive training. These people are the most important barrier in protecting the prince, so quality is more important than quantity."
"Okay, don't worry, sister. I will personally implement the things you just told me when I go back." Xie Feng said with a smile: "As for selecting people, there is no problem. I guarantee that they will be available whenever you need training."
"Well, that's good. But big brother, you have to remember one thing, that is, we have to do all this in secret. Also, my identity is just a personal maid beside the prince, and it has nothing to do with your affairs, do you understand?" Zhong Min deliberately explained the matter clearly first. No matter from which aspect, the lower the profile, the better.
Xie Feng was stunned when he heard this, but then he immediately reacted and said repeatedly, "I understand, I understand! Don't worry, sister, I promise that no bastard will dare to go out and say anything nonsense in the future. I don't have any other skills, but I have no problem with this one. Just wait and see."
