Volume 10 Chapter 361

The black eagle was hit by Tang Yin and immediately spread its wings in an attack posture. Amuke shouted twice before stopping it. He hurriedly saluted Tang Yin and said, "Beasts are difficult to tame. Don't be offended, Your Majesty!"

Of course Tang Yin wouldn't be angry because of a falcon. He smiled lightly and didn't say much, but he felt strange in his heart. Although this Amuke was a master of falcon training, what use was it to him? Ai Jia recommended him to her because she wouldn't let herself watch his performance when she was fine, right?

He turned around and asked Ai Jia: "Didn't you say you wanted to recommend some people? Why did Amuke just come?"

Before Ai Jia could speak, Amuke responded first: "The other tribesmen are all members of the villain. Because there were so many of them, the villain didn't let them in."

Tang Yin asked: "What is their ability..."

"They are all like villains. They have learned how to tame falcons since they were young." Amuke said proudly: "Because all of our tribe can tame falcons, we are the smallest in the local area, but we are the richest. Every time we hunt, I bring back the most prey.”

So what? It's just that you can eat a few more meals of meat and exchange for a few more copper coins than others! Tang Yin secretly smiled in his heart, but his face remained calm. He looked at Ai Jia again, but his brows were already slightly wrinkled.

Ai Jia understood what Tang Yin meant, and she said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Brother Amuke and his tribe entered the city with their subordinates in the morning. It is already noon, but they haven't had lunch yet. Your Majesty, can you let them Dining in the palace?”

Tang Yin shrugged and called a guard over, asking him to arrange meals for Amuke and others. After Amuke resigned, Ai Jia approached Tang Yin and asked in a low voice: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"How about what?" He looked at her puzzled and asked: "His ability to tame falcons is good, but that's it. What else can it be used for? Can he and his tribe be sent to the battlefield? Use a falcon to attack the enemy?"

"If we use them to fight, my subordinates think it is inappropriate, because the role they can play is much more important than killing a few enemies on the battlefield." Ai Jia said seriously.

"Oh?" Tang Yin perked up, walked to a stone, sat down slowly, and asked with a smile: "Explain what important role they can play?"

"Transmit intelligence." Ai Jia came to Tang Yin, knelt down and said, "Currently we only have two ways of transmitting intelligence. One is to use carrier pigeons, and the other is to use people. If people are used, the speed is too slow and it is easy to delay the fighter plane, and The target is also too big, and accidents are easy to happen on the way, so using humans is not the first choice. Using homing pigeons is good, but it also has disadvantages. The homing pigeons can only return to a fixed place. Once the fixed place disappears, the homing pigeons will return in vain. "

"The fixed place disappeared?" Tang Yin raised his eyebrows, not quite understanding what Ai Jia meant.

Ai Jia casually picked up three stones, placed one of them on the ground, and said: "Let's put it this way, for example, our army has two legions stationed at A at the same time, and at this time, an enemy situation suddenly appears in front, and one of the legions wants to go To go to place B, another legion is going to place C. If the two legions want to cooperate, they must frequently transmit information and understand each other's situation. But at this time, the carrier pigeon is completely useless and can only be transmitted by people. information."

"That's right!" Tang Yin asked, "Do you think it's okay to use Amuke's Falcon?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Aijia said: "Falcons are much smarter than doves, and they are very good at tracking!" As she spoke, she lit the stones on the ground and said: "If the legion going to B is going to Send a message to another legion. After releasing the falcon, it will fly back to the first place. After seeing that no one is in the first place, the falcon will judge and track based on the traces left on the ground until it finds another This is something that carrier pigeons cannot do anyway, so there is absolutely no problem in using carrier pigeons to transmit information between cities, but it must be transmitted between two constantly moving armies. For information, falcons are the first choice. In addition, falcons are large and powerful, and can carry much more information than homing pigeons.”

After listening to Ai Jia's explanation, Tang Yin's eyes suddenly lit up. No wonder Ai Jia recommended Amuke and his tribe to him. It turned out that she still had such considerations.

The eagle's eyesight is undoubtedly the best in the world. Even at an altitude of more than a thousand miles, it can clearly see mice running on the ground. It is truly clairvoyant. Not to mention the movement of a legion, even the movement of one person will leave footprints on the ground. It is also very common for falcons to track their prey through subtle traces on the ground. Apply this characteristic of falcons to military intelligence In terms of delivery, it is a fantastic idea, and of course, Tang Yin thinks it is also very feasible.

Tang Yin thought for a while, then asked, "Have you ever done any experiments?"

"Yes!" Aijia replied: "My subordinate once tried it with Amu Kebi. I rode for half an hour and then asked his falcon to come to me. After I ran for half an hour, I didn't even get a stick of incense. In no time, Amuko’s falcon caught up with me.”

Tang Yin was startled for a moment. People like Amuke are indeed useful, and they are very useful! He asked: "However, they are all loyal people. If they are entrusted with important tasks, can they be trusted?"

Ai Jia said: "Actually, they are not pure Zhen people. A hundred years ago, when Zheng Kingdom wanted to expand westward, they annexed their territory, so they became Zhen people. Through their names, the king should also You can tell it’s different from our name.”

That's true! Tang Yin rolled his eyes and asked again: "Then how did they come to Feng Country?"

"After the fall of the Zhen Kingdom, many Zhen people were forced to flee north. It was at that time that their clan came to the Feng Country. As for why they chose the Feng Country instead of other countries, the reason is very simple. Our country offers the most preferential treatment to the Zhen people. , the most powerful and sincere," Ai Jia said.

"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded and asked, "How many people are there in their clan?"

"There are only more than three hundred people." Ai Jia said: "There are less than seventy hunters who can train falcons."

"So few. Where are you going to put them?"

This sentence was the key to the question. Ai Jia looked around, and then said with a smile on her face: "Your Majesty, my subordinates want to take them all for their own use."

This was no surprise to Tang Yin. He smiled and said: "You are the leader of the underground network. You can make the decision yourself as to what kind of talents you want to recruit. You don't need to go out of your way to make decisions through me!"

Ai Jia said cautiously: "That's what I said, but some things...still need the king's approval." After a pause, she continued: "Amuke and his tribe are special talents, and they are called into the underground network. , Naturally, they cannot take it lightly. The subordinates want to give them the treatment of a hundred-man captain first, but after all, they also have numbers sixty or seventy. With so many captain-level people suddenly added, the military pay of the underground network is probably... I'm afraid... It’s hard to support.”

Like Tianyan, Diwang and Dark Arrow, they are not affiliated with the Central Army of the Feng Kingdom, nor are they under the control of Left Prime Minister Qiu Zhen. They are independent special departments directly responsible to Tang Yin. They have their own budgets and quotas every year, and are governed by Tang Yin reviewed and allocated money directly.

Like Tianyan and Diwang, they receive the same amount of money every year. This money is used to pay military salaries, purchase military supplies, scouts to collect intelligence, spies to conceal their identities, etc. Both departments are expanding very quickly. The number of personnel has increased significantly, and now the military expenditure is just enough. Ai Jia will recruit more than 60 people at once this time, and all of them will be given the treatment and military pay of a captain, which is also a big expense. She herself I couldn't afford it, so I had to come here to ask for money from Tang Yin.

The reason why she gives such high treatment to people like Amuke is because she can foresee that as long as Amuke and others are used properly, the underground network will definitely shine and play a vital role at critical moments. As a result, the Sky Eye will definitely pay attention to Amuke and others. Who can guarantee that Lotte will not send anyone to poach people, so Ai Jia hopes to win over Amuke and others through high treatment, so as not to be overtaken by the Sky Eye. .

Being careless is a woman's talent, and being good at calculation is Ai Jia's strength.

After all, it turned out that he was asking for money from himself. Tang Yin almost laughed. He held his chin and thought for a while, then said: "Wait a minute, I will ask Zongyuan to send someone to send 20,000 taels to your network. The money will be used to provide military pay and supplies to Amuke and others. Secondly, the expenses required for their daily falcon training will also be very large..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ai Jia didn't hear anything else clearly. She was overjoyed when she heard that the King was going to allocate another 20,000 taels of silver to her. Before Tang Yin could finish speaking, she knelt down on one knee and stepped in to salute. , thank Tang Yin.

Tang Yin rolled his eyes at her, pulled her up and said, "I haven't finished speaking yet. You have to use this money to buy more falcons, recruit more young people, and try to let Amuke teach the skills of falconry." Give it to them. If the effect of using falcons to convey information is really good, it must also be applied to the Sky Eye." Seeing Ai Jia's unconvinced face and opening his mouth to speak, Tang Yin continued: "Between the Sky Eye and the Earth Network. Although there is competition, the ultimate goal is the same, and there is only one, to help our army defeat the enemy and defeat the enemy country! Only by doing this, will our country become stronger and stronger, and the Sky Eye and Earth Network will become stronger and stronger! The stronger we become, the weaker our country will be. How can the Sky Eye and the Earth Network continue to exist?”

"Your Majesty taught you a lesson very well, and I will obey it carefully." Ai Jia agreed, but she didn't agree in her heart.

As long as one of them exists, it will be enough. Otherwise, if the same functions are divided into two different departments, it will be difficult to last long! No matter what, she would never let Diwang be the one eliminated. .
