Xiao Ruxun was keenly aware of what these people were thinking, so he was willing to accept their money without any qualms.
Of course, when he was collecting the money, he would also let the newly established Black Venom be in charge of this matter. They would conduct a preliminary investigation into the movements of the various officials and the contents of the news. This could also be considered a test for Zhou Yao and the newly established Black Venom.
The facts proved that Xiao Ruxun had not chosen the wrong person. Zhou Yao was truly suited to this shady job. The moment the Black Venom was established, it had only thirty to fifty people, but it had already given Xiao Ruxun a satisfactory answer. It had placed the private conversations between twenty to thirty officials on Xiao Ruxun's desk.
"Not bad, very good, very good! These people really dare to think that they would spend money to buy a cabinet official. They have to have the money first! If they really do become a cabinet official, how much effort would they have to put in to make up for their losses? Would they still have the heart to be an official? "
Xiao Ruxun looked at this laughable intelligence report and couldn't help but find the obsession of these officials laughable.
"There are also some people who are discussing whether or not Marshal will bring martial artists back to the court after seizing power. Some people say that they don't care, but others say that once they return to the capital and take official positions, they will stop Marshal and prevent martial artists from returning to the Imperial Court. They believe that having martial artists return to the Imperial Court is a disaster, and they are extremely opposed to Marshal's proposal to give the Five Armies Commanderies real authority.
Xiao Ruxun nodded.
"It's just these eleven people, right?"
"Yes, these eleven people are the clearest. They've even proposed a plan to work together to prevent the Five Armies Commanderies from being given real authority and to prevent His Majesty the Emperor from being the Marshal's right-hand man. There are some who are willing and some who are opposed.
They have different ideas, "Zhou Yao replied.
"Put these eleven people on the black list. After we kill Shen Yicheng, kill them first. Those who are still wavering will be put on the red list, depending on the situation. The rest will be put on the blue list and can be used."
Xiao Ruxun gave the order.
"Yes!"
Then Xiao Ruxun asked again, "I've asked Black Water, who is in charge of ideological instructors, to send you a copy of the news from the army. What do you think? What do you think?"
Zhou Yao calmly replied, "Other than the 30,000 Wolf Soldiers who don't understand Chinese and haven't joined the group of thought instructors, the newly surrendered troops have all joined the group of thought instructors. The reason for their work is to teach the soldiers how to read and write. Among these newly surrendered officers, there is indeed a portion of them who are averse to the entry of thought instructors and the preaching of loyalty to the Marshal. They feel that the Marshal is depriving them of their military power and burning the bridge after crossing the river. They usually have many complaints."
"It's just a small fry. What do Chen Lin and Chai Guozhu think of this? What do you think? "
"Chen Lin played some tricks in the beginning, but after the marshal severely punished Li Wenyuan, Chen Lin became completely obedient. Under the supervision of the marshal's brother, she did not do anything excessive. Chai Guozhu was very obedient and listened to Zheng Ying's command without any scruples about his military power. The generals of Myanmar who followed the marshal to battle did not care about this at all."
Xiao Ruxun nodded.
"What about the other middle-level and low-level officers of the newly surrendered troops?"
"There are 318 people who are resistant to the entry of thought instructors, and some even quarreled with thought instructors. There are also many who have bad attitudes, which has caused a relatively bad influence in the army. There was even an incident of laxative in the meal of thought instructors."
Zhou Yao reported the figures he had calculated in detail.
"How many people have bad attitudes?"
"Fifty-six people have been recorded."
Zhou Yao quickly reported the number.
"Well, very good."
Xiao Ruxun nodded with satisfaction. "These 318 people will all be recorded in the black list. You will be responsible for the execution of these people. The 56 people will be dealt with first, and the rest will come later. You can make up the charges. Remember, you have to do it cleanly, and …"
Xiao Ruxun paused for a moment, then said, "In the future, you will be in charge of the army and the ideological instructor. I will give the order that Black Water, which is currently in charge of the ideological instructor, will be placed under your Black Poison's control. You will be in full charge of the command."
Zhou Yao was taken aback and showed a surprised look.
"Marshal, I am very grateful for your trust, but … Black Water may have some resistance."
Zhou Yao seemed to be a little worried.
Xiao Ruxun frowned.
"What are you afraid of? Why did I ask you to establish Black Poison? To punish traitors! The rebellion of Black Water is still a rebellion. Black Water will be under your supervision. It should be Black Water that is afraid of you, not you! You have to make Zhang Wu break out in cold sweat when he mentions you. Do you understand?! "
Zhou Yao was shocked and quickly admitted his mistake. "I understand! I won't make any more mistakes! "
"Okay!"
Xiao Ruxun nodded and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, I have already prepared for this kind of thing. As long as Zhang Wu shows the slightest sign of resistance, he will disappear and someone else will be in charge of Black Water. Now Black Water's business is a little big. Zhang Wu is a little confused about his situation. Let him wake up. You will be in charge of the army. Black Water will be in charge of the land reform and intelligence spying."
Zhou Yao took a deep breath and then knelt on the ground.
"I thank Marshal for your trust! I will sacrifice my life to repay Marshal's kindness. I will not hesitate to lose my reputation! "
After that, Zhou Yao stood up. "Marshal, there is one more thing. I don't know if I should say it."
Xiao Ruxun frowned.
"Your duty is to tell me everything you know. Everything. Do you understand what that means? Everything. "
Zhou Yao immediately said, "I understand! Commander-in-chief, when I was spying on those civil officials these past few days, my subordinates reported that they also observed the generals in the army communicating abnormally. "
Xiao Ruxun looked at Zhou Yao.
"Abnormal communication?"
"Yes, unusual communication. They are supposed to be in charge of the army's left wing, right wing, front, and rear according to the Marshal's formation map. Although it is not strange for them to communicate with each other, they seem to have been communicating with each other too many times in the past few days."
Zhou Yao told everything he knew to Xiao Ruxun.
Xiao Ruxun was silent for a while.
"Do you know what they are talking about?"
Zhou Yao shook his head.
"I don't dare to monitor them without Marshal's permission."
Xiao Ruxun wrote a warrant for Zhou Yao.
"Since the Black Poison is the poisonous wine in my hands, it must fulfill its duty as a poisonous wine. The poisonous wine is fair to everyone, regardless of who is inside or outside, close or distant. No information is an exception. Do you understand what I mean? It is anything. "
Zhou Yao took the warrant from Xiao Ruxun, looked at it, and took a deep breath.
"I understand. Whatever Marshal needs, I will do my best to do it. I will not let Marshal down!"
Xiao Ruxun nodded slowly and let Zhou Yao leave.
After Zhou Yao left, Xiao Ruxun took out a piece of paper and wanted to write something. However, he hesitated for a long time and did not write.
