There were five thousand soldiers in Liang City, this was the number that Xiong Ba had specially designated for the city defense army. When Chu Xiong was the City Lord, he had actually eliminated nearly two-thirds of the soldiers for his own selfish reasons. As a result, there were less than 1,500 guards in the city.
This was the first reason.
Secondly, among the 1,500 guards, some of them had connections, some of them only knew how to flatter, and some of them were bandits that Chu Xiong had secretly recruited.
After entering Liang City, Qin Shuang took control of the City Lord's Mansion immediately. Then, she sent Xue Antian and a team of people to take over the guards.
Even though Qin Shuang had the intention to control the guards, due to the lack of manpower and the conspiracy of others, 500 soldiers managed to escape from Liang City overnight.
The soldiers who had escaped Liang City were either Chu Xiong's trusted aides or were dirty. In short, these people were all secretly afraid that Qin Shuang would make a move on them, so they ran for their lives.
In response, Qin Shuang did not let Xue Antian lead his men to hunt them down. Instead, he instructed Xue Antian to pass on a military order to the guards."Let bygones be bygones. Those who are not willing to stay as guards can receive an additional three months of military pay. At the same time, the guards who had left could return to Liang City at any time. Those who passed the assessment could rejoin the guards.”
Other than that, Qin Shuang had also issued the corresponding military orders and regulations after Xue Antian took control of the guards.
These military orders and regulations had two main purposes: First, they would clarify the duties and rights of the guards and restrict their behavior. Second, the specific duties and positions were graded and divided into different categories. Then, the corresponding salary and treatment would be used to correspond to them.
In fact, in the World Conference, other than Xiong Ba, who had the power, there were no other positions or positions. Those with power could cover the sky with one hand, while those without power were the same.
The advantage of Xiong Ba doing this was: "All the power is concentrated on him alone.”
There was only one advantage, but there were countless disadvantages. First of all, the members of the association did not have any goals to strive for. Even though Xiong Ba had added the three Hall Masters, it was still just a facade. Secondly, when Xiong Ba was unharmed, there might not be any trouble in the World Association. However, once Xiong Ba was seriously injured or even died, the World Association would definitely become a pot of porridge. In the end, the talented people in the association could not be put in an important position. In the long run, as the territory of the World Association grew larger and larger, the World Association would sooner or later face a huge hidden danger of being divided.
Qin Shuang was already aware of these problems and drawbacks, but he didn't have the intention to explain everything to Xiong Ba.
It was not that Qin Shuang was unwilling, but he could not.
The reason was because Xiong Ba had a headstrong and arbitrary side to him.
Rather than leaving a bad impression in Xiong Ba's heart, it was better to let Xiong Ba realize these problems and drawbacks before making changes.
The best way was to use facts to speak.”
That's right, Qin Shuang wanted to use Liang City as an example to make Xiong Ba aware and change.
If not for this, Qin Shuang would not have pushed herself to the cusp of the storm so early. After all, Xiong Ba's ambition was to make the world his enemy.
And this burden was too heavy. With Qin Shuang's current strength and ability, he was simply unable to deal with unknown dangers.
Even so, Qin Shuang still did so for three reasons: First, time waits for no man. The sooner Xiong Ba changed, the stronger the World Association would be. Second, before the thousand-year-old Sakra wants to play with the common people, Qin Shuang needs to seize the time to make some arrangements. Thirdly, the appearance of the Empress made Qin Shuang realize that there were many secret forces in the Divine Great Land that he didn't know about. Therefore, Qin Shuang wanted to be one step ahead.
……
It was the fifth day since Zhi Tanhua returned to Liang City.
After five days of hard work, Qin Shuang combined her foresight with the actual situation in Liang City and finally came up with a secret spy plan.
This secret agent plan was similar to the special forces training plan on Earth.| Intelligence Agency.
When Qin Shuang handed this plan to Zhi Tanhua and Oda Keiko, both of them were stunned. Everyone was filled with emotions, and Zhi Tanhua only thought,""Qin Shuang is really a god. Not only does he have a way to govern the city, but he is also proficient in the way of using troops. It is not an exaggeration to call him a 'literary and martial strategy'.”
Keiko, on the other hand, said in fear,""Just this spy plan alone is enough to crush Godless's schemes. Qin Shuang is too terrifying.”
In this era where men were superior to women, even if there was no lack of female heroes in the martial arts world, it was still the world of men.
This was an indisputable fact, but what made Zhi Tanhua feel incredulous was: "Not only did Qin Shuang put Oda Keiko in an important position, but she also made her take on a heavy responsibility.”
In this regard, Oda Keiko, who was involved, could not help but wonder,"Is he testing my loyalty, or is he using me? Or do you believe in my strength and ability?”
It turned out that not only did Qin Shuang let Oda Keiko be the assistant of Zhi Tanhua, but she also let her take on the position of 'deputy general.' She was also fully responsible for setting up a female intelligence agency.
That's right, the spy plan that Qin Shuang had formulated had three main contents:
First, the Dark Assassination Army was both a secret agent and an army.
Second, the Dark Assassination Army was made up of men and women. They used different professions such as bodyguard agencies, traveling merchants, brothels, and casinos as cover to hide their identities. While they were making their own profits step by step, they started from Liang City and then gradually spread to the Great Land.
Thirdly, the men and women had a clear division of labor and worked closely together.
This was the main content, and there were many more details.
Even with the knowledge of Tanhua and Keiko Oda, they could not fully understand this unprecedented spy plan.
Regarding this, Qin Shuang used two days to clear their doubts, and at the same time, he corrected some of the contents in time.
In these two days, Zhi Tanhua and Oda Keiko ate, drank, and slept in the City Lord's Mansion. Qin Shuang also put down her identity and lived with them.
Two days later, before Oda Keiko left the city lord's mansion, she asked Qin Shuang to give her a surname.
In Qin Shuang's eyes, Oda Keiko's actions were proof: "She is using this to show her loyalty to Qin Shuang.”
Qin Shuang naturally agreed and gave her surname to Oda Keiko.
From then on, Oda Keiko no longer existed, and Qin Hui became Qin Shuang's trusted subordinate.
Kanaka wasn't stupid. He knew why Keiko was doing this. Before leaving the City Lord Manor, Zhi Tanhua once again found Qin Shuang alone and told Qin Shuang meaningfully,""Young Master Shuang, there are twelve assassins in the Heavenly Lake. Among them, Gui Ying had already pledged his loyalty to Emperor Tong's father before he took over the throne. In addition, the rest of the people can be used.”
The meaning behind Paper Tanhua's words was nothing more than to tell Qin Shuang two things: Firstly, Emperor Child and Gui Ying were not truly loyal to the World Association and Xiong Ba, causing Qin Shuang to secretly guard against Gui Ying and the others. Secondly, people like the Dog King and Xibao could be put in important positions. As long as Qin Shuang spoke, he would recruit them for her.
Qin Shuang knew of Zhi Tanhua's good intentions, and he did not refuse. However, Qin Shuang did not do so. Instead, she told Zhi Tanhua,""Let's not do anything for now. If we disturb Emperor Tong, it might be inconvenient for us to do things in the future.”
