Thanks to Wu Zetian's strong support, the work of the Military Intelligence Institute quickly got on track, and a large number of carefully trained intelligence personnel passed the strict assessment and were able to complete the graduation. After the graduation assessment, based on the characteristics of these people, they were eventually sent to all parts of the country, and some small countries and tribes around the Tang Dynasty were not fully incorporated into the Tang Dynasty, and they carried out the special mission they had to bear. With the formal establishment of the Military Intelligence Institute, it was established throughout the country, including the border guardians and the governor's office, and there were also multiple foreign institutions.

These sub-organizations are only responsible to the higher level. Both the Protectorate, the Governor's Office and the prefectures at all levels have no right to interfere. However, the needs and expenditures of each branch are borne by the court through the local government. The specific methods are almost the same: the expenditures of the various hierarchical institutions of the Military Intelligence Institute are deducted proportionally from the taxes prepared by the state, the Protectorate, and the Governor's Office. The expenses will not be very small. At the beginning, local officials at all levels were not easy to understand the orders of the court, and many questions were sent to Chang'an. However, the court's reply was: This is only a temporary solution. After a while, further improved policies will be formulated, but now the current policies must be implemented and there must be no mistakes.

Of course, this is definitely a temporary solution. According to Chen Yi's suggestion, after everything is on track, the annual expenditure of the Military Intelligence Agency requires the court to withdraw additional amounts, and should be counted into the military expenditure at the beginning, and the military expenditure should be allocated separately as separate items. At this point, Wu Zetian was not willing to follow Chen Yi's idea, but after Chen Yi repeatedly requested and explained, he finally agreed, but he also ordered the relevant departments to make plans for a good life as soon as possible.

The establishment of various hierarchical institutions and foreign institutions is at least a very important matter in Chen Yi's eyes. It will definitely greatly facilitate the spy of various intelligences and can play a very important role in the war. Serve military services is this. This is the original intention of Chen Yi to propose to Wu Zetian to establish an intelligence investigation agency, which can also be seen from the naming he proposed. However, Wu Zetian seems not very interested in various intelligence investigations on the periphery, including military and economics. Her requirement for Chen Yi is to focus on internal investigations, especially for some senior officials in the court whom she believes need to monitor their whereabouts. Chen Yi can only obey and allow some people with average abilities to be responsible for internal investigations.

Inside investigation is actually a matter of benefit from several parties, and he can also obtain the information he needs from it and use it for his own use.

All the intelligence found in the investigation will be handed over to Chen Yi, and after he signed the article, it will be handled. Whether to report it further or take measures to deal with it? Although the deputy have the power to deal with it, it must also be reported to Chen Yi and filed in the archives office of the Military Intelligence Agency. It can be said that Chen Yi can know all the information found by the Military Intelligence Agency. If he wants to inquire more, he can ask his subordinates to hand over all the submitted situations to him for a review. However, it is a very heavy workload. Chen Yi, who wants to be more idle, does not have this kind of interest. He just ordered several subordinates who are trusted by him, Zhang Qianxu, Du Xiaosheng, Liu Jing, etc. to be responsible for the same division of responsibilities and not to miss any valuable intelligence clues. In addition to their own possession of useful information, they should also tell him at their discretion.

After receiving some valuable information, Wu Zetian further recognized the value and role of the Military Intelligence Academy and wanted to further control the Military Intelligence Academy in her hands. She knew that Chen Yi had the final say about the Military Intelligence Academy, and she did not want this situation to happen. Therefore, in addition to formally appointing Chen Yi as the highest chief officer of the Military Intelligence Academy, the Left Jinwu Guard General Qiu Shenji was appointed as the deputy director of the Military Intelligence Academy. The position was only under Chen Yi.

Who is Qiu Shenji? Chen Yi of course knew that this cruel official who was "notorious" in history was a confidant who was very trusted by Wu Zetian at a certain period of time. He did countless bad things for Wu Zetian, and even Li Xian was sentenced to death.

Qiu Shenji was a standard second-generation official. His father was Qiu Xinggong, a famous general in the Zhenguan period. The only person in the famous "Six Horses of Zhaoji" was Qiu Xinggong. In the battle to destroy Wang Shichong, Qiu Xinggong followed Li Shimin into the enemy's formation. The result of the battle was that Li Shimin was caught in an arrow while guarding Qiu Xinggong, who was beside Li Shimin, got off his horse and pulled out the arrow. He also used his own cavalry to guard Shimin in front of his horse, held a sword to urge him to break through. Therefore, he was a great contribution to the war, and Qiu Xinggong was deeply trusted by Li Shimin and was always valued. Qiu Shenji was Qiu Xinggong's second son. Because of his father's honor, he was highly valued by the court. He was in charge of the left Jinwu Guard for many years and was in charge of the imperial guards in the palace. His status was beyond ordinary people.

However, Chen Yi had little contact with this person. After Qiu Shenji was sent to the Military Intelligence Institute by Wu Zetian, he sent someone to investigate the situation in detail. He knew that this person has always been known for being ruthless and not very merciful, but his ability is average, and he immediately had a solution to deal with this person.

Chen Yi of Wu Zetian certainly knew what her purpose was. Of course, this woman wanted to take this inevitable in her own hands. She wanted to avoid the occurrence of autocracy through the coordination and mutual monitoring of several people. This was inevitable, and she had no resistance to Wu Zetian's decision. However, the construction of the Military Intelligence Institute was handled by him, and all the personnel of each department were searched by him personally or through several capable subordinates. Loyalty had been tested. The arrival of Qiu Shenji would not shake his status in the Military Intelligence Institute in a short time. It can be said that even if Qiu Shenji came here under the order of Wu Zetian to assist Chen Yi in charge of affairs, he did not have much practical power. He even could not command Zhang Qianxu and others, let alone interfering in other matters, which was almost equivalent to obtaining a free position.

Qiu Shenji did not expect that he would be treated like this when he first came to the Military Intelligence Agency. He had gone to Wu Zetian to react to this situation and hoped to be in charge of the actual matters, but Wu Zetian told him not to worry, everything needed to be taken slowly. Qiu Shenji also knew how trusted Chen Yi was with Wu Zetian. Even if he was given a hundred courage, he would not dare to fight with Chen Yi in dealing with matters, and would not dare to argue with Chen Yi in person.

Chen Yi also knew this situation and knew that Qiu Shenji could not compare with him in terms of his favor, but Qiu Shenji was more loyal and obedient than him. I believe Wu Zetian also knew that Qiu Shenji was easier to master completely than him. He didn't care. He just respected Qiu Shenji on the surface and did not let him interfere in any secrets or other matters, and only asked him to be responsible for the miscellaneous affairs of the Military Intelligence Agency.

Qiu Shenji finally accepted this arrangement helplessly, and did the chores with grievances. He was very upset about Chen Yi's intentional difficulties. He wanted to take some measures to retaliate, but in the Military Intelligence Agency, he ignored his orders in serious matters, and he didn't understand the specific matters, so he had to give up in the end.

Chen Yi was quite proud of successfully isolating Qiu Shenji and did not annoy Wu Zetian. He was also prepared to find a way to drive Qiu Shenji away, or find an opportunity to punish this person so that he would no longer harm anyone.

The construction of the Royal Military Academy of the Tang Dynasty is in full swing, and officials from the Ministry of War are also selecting qualified professors everywhere. Once the school building and other infrastructure are completed, the Royal Military Academy of the Tang Dynasty will start school soon. Orders from each army are also conveyed. The chief officials at all levels are required to select some middle and lower-level officers with good performance and prepare to enter the school as the first batch of students as soon as the Royal Military Academy is built. Chen Yi only gave advice on the construction of the Royal Military Academy and was responsible as the Minister of the Ministry of War. He also knew that after the academy is completed, there would be no more things for him. He did not know much about military affairs, and he had never led the army to fight wars, and he did not know how to teach. Therefore, the Royal Military Academy after the completion of the construction of the Royal Military Academy will not let him be responsible.

He expressed this in front of Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian did not force him to do anything, but just asked him who would take charge of the newly established top military academy of the Tang Dynasty. Chen Yi recommended Pei Xingjian to Wu Zetian. He felt that Pei Xingjian was the only candidate for military achievements and scholarship. As a disciple of Su Dingfang, the direct descendant of Wei Gong's military art, he had made great achievements in Anxi. Who is more suitable than him? Su Dingfang's son Su Qingjie, and Chen Yi also felt that this famous general could also participate in it later.

However, Wu Zetian did not express her opinion on this matter. She did not understand military affairs, nor did she fully understand the importance of establishing a military academy for military construction. He only wanted to build a military academy because of Chen Yi's many bewitching explanations and persuasions. As for the effect, she had no idea. However, for such a large-scale institution, the person in charge of the company must not be able to take responsibility for it, and there must be nothing. She will not underestimate Chen Yi's views. But she still has to weigh and consider it before making a decision after weighing it.

Anyway, the Royal Military Academy of the Tang Dynasty is still under construction, and Chen Yi and other relevant officials are responsible for the construction. It is not too late to consider it after it is almost completed. However, Wu Zetian also tends to let Pei Xingjian serve as the first sacrificial sacrificial senator in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, during the construction of the Military Academy, Pei Xingjian was also allowed to actively participate in the construction affairs.

After the weather warmed up, the war against the Japanese continued. Gao Kan led more than 50,000 elite Tang dynasties to fight against more than 100,000 Japanese troops who were determined to drive them into the sea. If in last year's landing operation, some people believed that the victory of the Tang army was based on unexpected accidents. They landed near the empty Japanese defenses, and successfully captured Origawa City, and captured the eldest brother of the King of the Japanese and a large group of important Japanese officials. This was not a direct manifestation of actual combat power, then in the frontal battle with Japan, they would demonstrate their own military power very well.

In this confrontation after the New Year, the Japanese army led by the ancient Ming Ren had an absolute advantage in number, and fought against the 50,000 Tang army with a force of about 110,000, but the number advantage did not constitute any advantage in combat effectiveness at all. In a plain about a hundred miles north of the Ori River, the two armies launched a head-on confrontation. During this battle, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese and Tang army, which were waiting for work, was immediately judged. After encountering a long-range firepower of the Tang army, including artillery, explosive packs and grenades thrown by stone throwers, and beds.

After the attack of crossbows and other weapons, the so-called most elite cavalry of the charger of the Japanese army did not have any advantage, but suffered a lot of losses. Before they rushed to the Tang army, thousands of troops had been reduced, and a sudden chaos was caused. Just when the Japanese army was in chaos, the elite Tang cavalry led by the surrendered general of the Baekje were killed from the left, and instantly broke out the Japanese army led by the ancient Mingren. Gao Kan personally led the main force to cover it up. Faced with the heavy blow to our army, the Japanese army immediately collapsed.

In the process of my main army taking advantage of the situation to fight, they did not encounter the fierce battle as expected. The combat power of Japan was extremely low. In the eyes of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, they were just a group of mobs and were defeated in one round. The army I was chasing and chasing was like a group of duck-driven people, chasing a group of people with no resistance. The firearms no longer need to be used. To deal with people with low combat power like the Japanese, the generals of the Tang army felt that using this new and powerful weapon against them was an insult to themselves. With the rush of a large group of people, they could easily defeat them, and even annihilate the main force of the Japanese army. The fact is that the war was one-sided. I thought it was an arduous battle that turned into a one-sided massacre, and the Japanese were bleeding into a river.

In this battle, the newly supported "Water King" of the Seaman Prince also led a group of ministers under his command to watch the battle. They were all frightened by the super strong combat power of the Tang army. This was not a war, it was clearly a massacre. Countless Japanese people lost their lives under the iron cavalry of the Tang army. Many Japanese people watching the battle were frightened by the bloody scene, so they could not speak for several days.

When the news reached Chang'an, the eldest brother and the important Japanese ministers of the State of Japan were escorted to Beijing. After hearing this news, the eldest brother of the State of Yanzu vomited blood several times and died. Zhongdajian finally lowered his self-noble head and surrendered to the feet of Wu Zetian and the officials of the Tang Dynasty.

The war in Japan no longer requires any concern. What we need to do next is to let it care for a while, and let the major forces kill each other. The Dongyi Dao army, which will not soon be launched to clean up the mess when necessary. Many people think that the court will be calm for a while, without war or storm, and many people can live a peaceful life.

However, history will not be too calm, or some people are unwilling to be calm. As news of a great victory in the Japanese territory came, shortly after Brother Zhong and others arrived in Chang'an, a minister submitted a memorial requesting the appointment of Prince Li Xian as emperor!

This proposal shocked everyone. After hearing this news, Chen Yi believed that a storm in the court was coming! (To be continued.
