Dominate the Country

Gao Shida walked up the steps of the palace gate of the Qianqing Palace. He felt that his feet were trembling and his hands were a little white from nervousness.

Because what he was going to do next was to meet the emperor!!!

Meeting the emperor was not unusual for him.

Gao Shida had met the emperor more than once or twice in the years since he came from Chen Han. Chen Ming even awarded him a medal in person. He himself was promoted to the head of the Fifth Department of the National Security Bureau, and he was considered successful in the national security system. But that was all in groups, in batches, and now he was specially received by the emperor, which was something Gao Shida had never dared to think about in the past.

And today, this scene appeared.

Gao Shida breathed a sigh of relief. He knew why it was because he had just returned from the Northeast, and then he had a new nickname in the officialdom: Blood Wolf.

The entire Northeast was accompanied by bloody storms, and more than 30 families were "eradicated". Most of these families were concentrated in Heilongjiang Province, and some were in northern Jilin. Thousands of close relatives and relatives of these families alone died. The number of "accomplices" who accompanied these families to meet the King of Hell also exceeded a thousand.

As for the people who fell into the labor camps with these people, the number was much greater.

And now the total population of the entire Outer Northeast [referring to the land north of Heilongjiang, south of the Greater Khingan Range, and between the Wudi River and the Greater Khingan Range] is how many?

200,000?

300,000?

Or 400,000?

And more than 2,000 people were killed by Gao Shida alone this time. Many Han families who "survived" from the Qing Dynasty were implicated. These families avoided being relocated by the Qing Dynasty by "hiding in the mountains" and other "methods" and survived locally. However, they received the due punishment with the rise of the anti-smuggling storm.

Chen Ming didn't feel sorry at all.

Even if such a scene appeared because of his deliberate indulgence, in order to stabilize the situation in the Outer Northeast, he deliberately turned a blind eye and watched some bastards in the mainland smuggling materials to the Northeast, so as to stabilize the Eight Banners and prevent them from causing any more trouble. Taking advantage of the "peace" between the two sides, the Immigration Bureau has been organizing a large number of immigrants to the Outer Northeast in the past two years.

From Chen Ming's point of view, all this is to win time to stabilize the border. As for making the lives of the Russians and the remnants of the Eight Banners better, it has to be so. But Chen Ming never expected that this kind of smuggling would be so prosperous in such a short time, and it has been woven into a network.

So Chen Ming's thoughts in his heart became incomprehensible.

People are like this. When they do something, they always find a suitable reason for themselves, but when they pursue the responsibility for something, they always feel that others have "betrayed" and "let him down."

Chen Ming had such an idea when he wanted to clean up the "Outer Northeast". Although his initial indulgence was the fuse that triggered this smuggling storm, after seeing so many people join the smuggling tide under the temptation of money, he had a strong sense of "betrayal" in his heart.

Gao Shida, who was sent to the Outer Northeast by the National Security Bureau, completed the task well, and the Military Intelligence Bureau also delivered good news at the right time.

Remember those trained Western-faced spies by Lake Baikal?

Of course, they were present in Nerchinsk. This time, the Military Intelligence Department sent the news of Fu Kang'an's death.

Without the "Qing Dynasty" in history and without Qianlong, his uncle, as a backing, Fu Kang'an could no longer have a glorious history. As of the withdrawal of the Qing Dynasty from Outer Northeast, the only thing that could make Fu Kang'an's name in history was his experience in Korea.

But the death of such a "famous general in the history of the Qing Dynasty" still made Chen Ming very happy.

And corresponding to the bloody storm that Gao Shida set off in Outer Northeast, this gave Chen Ming an idea in his mind. The division of the Military Intelligence Bureau's organization was too sloppy. It should learn from the way the rabbits played in the previous life, such as the Policy Planning Department, Asia Department, West Asia and North Africa Department, Africa Department, Eurasia Department, Europe Department, North America and Oceania Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, etc.

The Military Intelligence Bureau should also add a layer to the action organization at the department level. No, this is not Chen Ming's direct purpose. His real purpose is that he felt that he was too absolute when he divided the responsibilities at the beginning.

National security and military intelligence are one inside and one outside, but looking at the current Northeast, these two agencies obviously lack coordination.

In the Northeast, Mongolia, Xinjiang, these places that have contact with Russia, it seems that the internal and external integration is consistent, and it is easier to get things done.

Chen Ming's new plan is to establish a new intelligence agency in the northern Xinjiang region, covering domestic national security and foreign military intelligence, with a level set at the first level. They are under the General Staff of the Grand Marshal's Office, and the relationship between the National Security and Military Intelligence Bureau and it is more suitable to be described as cooperation.

And Gao Shida, who was summoned today, entered Chen Ming's eyes. Perhaps he is a very suitable candidate.

Before Gao Shida met Chen Ming, Chen Ming checked his entire resume.

This person's background is trustworthy, and he can almost be said to be one of his own. After he came to prominence, his work review scores for several consecutive years were above 85, and his ability can be said to be trustworthy. Not to mention the living example of Outer Northeast.

Loyalty and ability are both trustworthy. Gao Shida is the ideal person in Chen Ming's mind. If he could pass the audience today and pass Chen Ming's test, he would be the one in charge of the intelligence network in the Outer Northeast.

But Gao Shida didn't know this now.

To be honest, Gao Shida was not happy before he got the opportunity to 'face the saint'. Because on his way back to Nanjing, he got the news that he would be transferred to the inner guard to hold a certain position. It can be understood that this was a compliment for his operations in the Northeast.

Although theoretically speaking, the power of the Internal Guard is far less useful than that of the National Security Bureau. The latter is the real power department, while the Internal Guard is more of a service to the royal family. It has a very good status but has little connection with the outside world.

But even so, Gao Shida was overjoyed, because this represented the emperor's trust in him. The inner guard has gradually developed from a carefully selected small-scale force at the beginning to the current palace guard force, imperial guard, secret guard and other departments. This is obviously a deep trust of the emperor. This allows the department to grow higher and higher day by day, just like the Internal Affairs Department at the beginning.

Gao Shida was still very young. He didn't care about external power. What he wanted more was the emperor's trust. If he could survive a few years in the internal defense and then be released, he would at least be the top leader of the provincial department in the national security department, one level higher than the operations department directly under the headquarters.

The nature of national security is different from that of ordinary officialdom. The Operations Department is a fifth-rank official, the top leader is a second-rank official, and the deputy is a third-rank official. There is only one layer above the Operations Department: inspection, general affairs, and provincial departments.

There are few levels and limited duties.

If Gao Shida can completely enter the inside defense, it will also be a good choice.

However, just when Gao Shida returned to Nanjing from the outer Northeast, the "good news" that had been making a lot of noise suddenly disappeared. The joyful Gao Shida soon received bad news from his immediate boss, and his transfer was cancelled. .

Because the review department of the inner guard said that he was not suitable to join the inner guard. He was too murderous and might have offended the nobles. So you can't enter the inner guard.

I hit his grandma's feet!

After hearing the news, Gao Shida wanted to kill someone.

What does it mean to have too much murderous aura, and what does it mean to be afraid of offending a noble person? This is such a bastard, such a comment made by someone else.

This completely blocked Gao Shida's path to progress.

She almost pointed at his nose and called him a killer. The collision and everything were fake. The big hats of 'Killing Star' and 'Killing Star' were real. It would be difficult to wear them on your head. It was taken off. And thinking with his toes, Gao Shida also knew that after carrying this bad reputation, he would be a scapegoat, and it would be difficult for him to get any further advancement in the national security system in the future.

Because no one wants their subordinate to be a murderer, and no one wants their immediate boss to be a murderer. Gao Shida really wanted to chop up the people responsible for the comments.

But the latter are under the inner guard. Not to mention that it is difficult for ordinary people to see them. Even if they really appear in front of Gao Shida, how can Gao Shida dare to actually draw a knife?

No amount of complaints in Gao Shida's heart can make any waves.

He is not even qualified to flutter!

But he is also lucky. Because just a few days after he suffered from the suffering, a notification made Gao Shida, who was sinking into hell, instantly ascend to paradise.

His Majesty the current Emperor wants to summon him.

And meet him exclusively and alone.

Gao Shida was instantly excited.

The previous sadness was completely forgotten, and all I could think about was waiting for this day.

Today, just before he entered the palace, he met a legendary figure - Shi Jingkong.

In his early years, he was a great monk of Shaolin Temple, and now he is the head of the internal guard. The latter told Gao Shida that the reason why his transfer appointment was canceled was because of the emperor's greeting. Now there is a new position waiting for him, if he is suitable.

Gao Shida no longer had any grudges in his heart.

On the contrary, I feel that this is a real great opportunity.

There is no guarantee that he will be able to leave his name in history like Shi Jingkong in front of him in the future.

While thinking about it, Gao Shida was taken to Qianqing Palace by the guided guards. Without needing any advice from others, Gao Shida immediately bowed to the eunuch at the door and said, "Please, Gao Shida from the Fifth Department of National Security, please see your Majesty!"

Not long after, a eunuch walked out of the main hall and said, "Xuan Gao Shida has an audience."

Gao Shida was stirred in his heart, and he quickly bowed again, and then followed the eunuch into the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as he entered the Palace of Qianqing, Gao Shida immediately knelt down in the palace and said, "My lord, Gao Shida, pays homage to Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" Chen Han's daily palace etiquette no longer included kneeling down, even the lowest eunuchs and maids, but Gao Shida's Isn't it true that the official position is too humble?

"Stand flat." Chen Ming was not surprised when he saw Gao Shida prostrating himself on the ground, and ordered kindly.

Only then did Gao Shida dare to stand up, raised his head and secretly glanced at Chen Ming, who was sitting upright, with his peripheral vision.

Chen Ming was wearing regular clothes, which made Gao Shida feel relieved. Of course, as a man who appears in Gao Shida's mind and has his own background music, Chen Ming is extremely majestic even in regular clothes. His eyes seem to be able to see through people's minds, and his whole body is full of endless majesty.

Chen Ming didn't know that Gao Shida was his absolute admirer. Although he knew that Gao Shida had a very bad life before being taken in by the dark camp, he didn't know how bad this "bad" was.

At that time, Gao Shida was just a beggar, but he was a little older.

Since entering the dark camp, Gao Shida has become literate, well fed and clothed, and his life has undergone earth-shaking changes. The most important thing is that Gao Shida did not experience any real life danger during the whole process.

This is like a person in dire straits, with a rope hanging down, allowing you to pull the rope to climb ashore, but the price is just a bunch of his hair. In a sense, such a person is certainly not worthy of full trust, but his loyalty is definitely above the passing line.

Without paying enough, he has gained great benefits. In a sense, Chen Han is a benefactor, and he has been giving great favors for many years, so the beneficiaries will naturally be grateful to Chen Han.

The rule of "a little rice is a favor, a big rice is a grudge" is untenable under the supreme imperial power, because the background difference is too big.

The reason is very simple. People like Gao Shida, who came from a poor background and now have a high position, want to do what they do most, to make achievements, leave their names in history, and then be appreciated and promoted by the emperor. This is the fantasy and hope that every man will have.

And Chen Ming obviously fits this image perfectly. He is exactly the emperor that Gao Shida dreamed of. This is his ideal object of loyalty, and a "person" that completely fits his mind and body philosophy. Naturally, he will have great admiration and love for him.

Chen Ming didn't know Gao Shida's psychological activities at the moment. All he could see was a red column of air above Gao Shida's head completely leaning towards him. As for the bad reputation that Gao Shida left in the Northeast, Chen Ming wanted to laugh.

Only about 2,000 people. When the war is not over, this is nothing. Although the nature of the two sides is different.

"It is my idea to imply that you are cruel and bloodthirsty. Next, I want you to be in charge of the Northeast Intelligence Investigation and Statistics Bureau, which is a newly established department. Its only task is to clean up the local troubles in the Northeast and investigate the intelligence of the Russians.

I felt that the intelligence exchange channels between the National Security and Military Intelligence Departments were blocked and inconvenient during this anti-smuggling operation, and this is a new idea.

Combining the national security of the Northeast and the military intelligence outside the country to achieve the best effect."

Chen Ming does not want a gentle and elegant man to be in this position. A man sitting in such a position needs to have deterrence, a strong deterrence, just like the boss Dai in history, who makes people shudder when he mentions it.

Of course, Gao Shida will not have the deterrence of boss Dai immediately, but the reputation of being bloodthirsty is also quite shocking.

A lie told a thousand times will become the truth.

Does it matter whether Gao Shida is really "bloodthirsty"?

What matters is that the general public thinks he is a bloodthirsty person. Chen Ming wants him to be a bloodthirsty and tyrannical person. A person who likes to kill people and is cruel and tyrannical must be a terrible person.

Chen Ming looked at Gao Shida, who was full of enthusiasm. After hearing what Chen Ming said, the air column above Gao Shida's head still did not waver at all. Now Chen Ming has some understanding. This little official in front of him is his "iron fan".
