Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

The Imperial Capital – Interstellar Intelligence Agency.

"Half an hour ago, we received information that the Black-Clad Army was planning to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince at the Imperial Hotel."

"The situation is extremely critical."

"The Black Army made extensive preparations for this assassination operation."

“There is even an army of 3000 combat robots that will participate in the assassination operation.”

"and............"

Chen Guyan glanced at the high-ranking officials of the Interstellar Intelligence Agency present and said in a deep voice, "There are also spies of the Black Army inside the Imperial Hotel!"

"What? There's a Black Army mole inside the Imperial Hotel?"

As soon as Chen Guyan said this, the high-ranking officials of the Intelligence Agency present immediately fell into quiet discussion.

Moreover, everyone was shocked by the situation that Chen Guyan mentioned.

You should know that the Imperial Hotel is directly under the Interstellar Intelligence Agency.

Many important official events of the imperial court were held at the Imperial Hotel.

Therefore, every staff member at the Imperial Hotel undergoes thorough vetting.

Furthermore, to ensure the reliability of the staff inside the Imperial Hotel, all their activities and lives are basically completely transparent.

It's safe to say there are virtually no secrets or privacy whatsoever.

Furthermore, all the staff at the Imperial Hotel share a common characteristic.

That is—they were all unmarried orphans.

This means that no one can use their family members to coerce them!

Therefore, Chen Guyan's claim that there were Black Army spies inside the Imperial Hotel immediately caused a huge uproar within the Interstellar Intelligence Agency.

-------------------------------------

"You heard me right!"

"According to the intelligence we have now, there are indeed spies of the Black Army hidden inside the Imperial Hotel."

Chen Guyan said solemnly, "These inside agents are all clones created by the Black-Clad Army."

"In other words—all of these spies have been replaced."

"There is a batch of clones hiding inside the Imperial Hotel."

"Although we still don't know exactly how the Black Army did all this."

"But the information I received should be accurate!"

"Director, since the intelligence is accurate, should we immediately notify His Highness the Crown Prince to cancel the event three days from now?"

"The Imperial Hotel has an inside agent from the Black Army, along with a 3000-strong robotic army. If His Highness the Crown Prince attends the gala as scheduled..."

"Isn't this risk a bit too great?"

"Yes!"

"Under these circumstances, we absolutely cannot allow His Highness the Crown Prince to put himself in danger..."

"In my opinion—we should find a reason to announce the cancellation of the event..."

"No!"

Chen Guyan shook his head: "The event cannot be canceled."

"We need to turn the tables on the Black-Clad Army and wipe out their underground forces hidden in the capital."

"Otherwise, this will always be a serious hidden danger..."

"All we know right now is that there are Black Army agents inside the Imperial Hotel."

"But we do not yet have the specific list of personnel."

"Furthermore, we don't know where the Black Army's 3000 combat robots are hiding."

"Therefore, we must use this operation to lure out all the members of the Black Army who are lurking in the capital."

"Furthermore, we must not let the Black-Clad Army detect anything suspicious."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Guyan continued, "In this situation..."

"Of course we cannot let His Highness the Crown Prince put himself in danger."

"The Crown Prince of the Great Qian Dynasty must not take this risk."

"We'll handle the arrangements for His Highness the Crown Prince personally—we'll have a stand-in attend the gala in his place."

"Now, the most important thing is to find a way to identify the spies inside the Imperial Hotel."

"Then deploy the encirclement and suppression plan!"

"The Black-Clad Army really knows how to pick their timing..."

"The problem of the infiltrated Badaf Zerg hasn't been resolved yet, and now the Black Army is causing trouble too!"

"These bastards are a bunch of complete extremists..."

"If Qianxing is destroyed by the Badaf insectoids, the Black-Clad Army won't fare any better!"

The senior intelligence officials present were complaining.

"The leader of the Black Army was a complete extremist."

Chen Guyan shook his head helplessly: "Although this person is a remnant of the barbarian tribes, he is also a complete pervert!"

"His purpose in creating the Black-Clad Army was not to restore the Yi Kingdom."

"From the very beginning, this mountain dog came with the intention of bringing disaster to the entire Qianxing."

"This time, the Mountain Dogs are determined to carry out a major operation in the capital."

"If we hadn't received advance notice..."

"The consequences would be unimaginable..."

"The Black Army is actually able to hide such a large army of combat robots in the capital."

"This shows that our Interstellar Intelligence Agency has done a very poor job!"

Chen Guyan frowned and said, "Without alerting them, we must find a way to locate the Black-Clad Army's secret base hidden in the capital as soon as possible."

"If 3000 combat robots really start causing trouble in the Empire, the chaos will be enormous!"

"Chief, it's not difficult to investigate the reasons for searching for the Black Army's secret base."

Someone immediately chimed in, "Right now, the entire Great Qian Dynasty is working intensively to find any remaining members of the Badaf insectoid race that have escaped."

"We can conduct a thorough, comprehensive search of the entire capital city without arousing suspicion from the Black-Clad Army by using the pretext of investigating transparent insects."

"Anyway, a comprehensive investigation of the capital is currently underway."

"We just need to add some detection measures specifically for combat robots to the existing ones."

"As long as these combat robots of the Black Army are in the capital."

"We should be able to find them within 24 hours!"

"What I want is not 'should,' but 'must be found'!"

"Once the location of these combat robots is determined, take immediate military action in the area under the pretext of discovering the Badaf Zerg."

"That way, the Black-Clad Army won't suspect anything."

"Chief, what if we destroy all of these combat robots immediately after discovering them...?"

"Will the Black-Clad Army cancel the assassination operation because of this?"

"No!" Chen Guyan said with absolute certainty, "The Black-Clad Army is determined to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince this time."

"No matter the cost, they will not be willing to cancel the operation."

"Even if their army of combat robots is destroyed beforehand."

"As long as His Highness the Crown Prince continues to attend the party as usual, they will not give up!"

"Without delay, activate the emergency plan immediately."

"You must find the Black Army's secret base within 24 hours!"

Chen Guyan immediately issued a death order.

After arranging a series of emergency deployments.

Chen Guyan then rushed to the palace without stopping...

-------------------------------------

"have to!"

"This time they didn't come in the dead of night..."

Seeing Chen Guyan rushing to the palace, Shen Moshen couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

He entered the palace during the day, but in a hurry.

"It's probably not good news."

"But he didn't come over at night..."

"This news shouldn't be as bad as the previous ones, right?"

"Could it be that they've discovered traces of the carrion worms again?"

Shen Moshen guessed, "Or has a new species of the Badaf insectoid race been discovered on Qianxing?"

"His Majesty................"

"This trip to the palace actually didn't bring bad news about the Badaf insectoids..."

"But it is indeed bad news!"

Chen Guyan said solemnly, "This time it's news about the Black-Clad Army, the largest anti-Qian organization."

"We've received intelligence—the Black-Clad Army is planning to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince three days from now, taking advantage of his attendance at a gala event at the Imperial Hotel!"

"what?"

"The Black-Clad Army is going to assassinate the Crown Prince?" Shen Moshen was quite surprised by this. "And they're going to do it at the Imperial Hotel?"

"Are they crazy?"

"Or is it deliberately designed to cause trouble for the court at this crucial time?"

Shen Moshen frowned and said, "The Imperial Hotel is a direct subordinate unit of your Interstellar Intelligence Agency."

"Are the black-clad soldiers planning to assassinate the Crown Prince there?"

"Your Majesty, our informants within the Black Army have sent back definite news."

Chen Guyan nodded with absolute certainty: "The Black-Clad Army is going to cause a big commotion in the capital in three days!"

"The Black-Clad Army has planted an inside agent in the Imperial Hotel."

"Moreover, it has now been confirmed that the Black Army has a secret base hidden in the capital."

"This secret base harbors an army of 3000 combat robots!"

"Moreover, all 3000 combat robots are the latest 'Destroyer 3' combat robots developed by the Black Army!"

"Each of these combat robots is essentially a mobile suicide bomber."

"After they lose their ability to fight, they detonate the nanobombs inside their bodies."

"The 3000 'Destroyer 3' combat robots are not just 3000 fighting machines, but also 3000 powerful bombs!"

"If these 'Destroyer 3' combat robots were to storm the streets of Beijing..."

"The consequences are simply unimaginable!"

“3000 ‘Destroyer 3’ combat robots…” Shen Moshen also realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Has Beijing already conducted multiple comprehensive investigations?"

How did the Black Army's secret base evade a full investigation?

"Is someone within the imperial court covering for them?"

"We cannot rule out this possibility now!"

Chen Guyan nodded: "However, we do not yet have any intelligence information on this matter."

"Based on what we know now, we underestimated the Black Army's power and cunning."

"Many of the Black Army's secrets were known to the founder of the Black Army, Yamabe Ken, and his son!"

"For example, the secret base hidden within the capital city..."

"Our Interstellar Intelligence Agency's informant within the Black Army has already secured a position in the core high command of the Black Army."

"However, our informants knew nothing about these things beforehand!"

"If it weren't for the Mountain Dogs' big move in the capital, we still wouldn't have known these inside stories..."

"All signs indicate that the only person the mountain dog truly trusts is himself."

"Even the core members of the Black-Clad Army are treated with extreme caution by the Mountain Dogs."

"You just said—that there's a Black Army insider at the Imperial Hotel?"

Shen Moshen frowned and asked, "How did they do that?"

"Weren't those people at the Imperial Hotel under your personal supervision?"

"Yes!"

Chen Guyan then explained, "I personally oversaw the selection of every single staff member at the Imperial Hotel."

"They entered the Imperial Hotel without any problems whatsoever."

"Especially regarding their loyalty to the imperial court, I can absolutely vouch for them personally!"

"However, we don't know what method the Black-Clad Army used—they actually used clones to switch some of their personnel!"

"In other words, all of these spies inside the Imperial Hotel are clones."

"Furthermore, even if these clones undergo comprehensive physical examinations, it is difficult to detect any clues."

"Because just a month ago, all staff members of the Imperial Hotel had undergone medical checkups."

“A few days ago, in order to check whether anyone had been parasitized by the Badaf insectoids, they also conducted a comprehensive physical examination.”

"However, no clues were found."

"So—you haven't found the clones hidden inside the Imperial Hotel yet?"

"Yes!" Chen Guyan immediately assured Shen Moshen, "However, Your Majesty, please rest assured!"

"We are absolutely confident that we can identify these black-clad military spies hidden in the Empire Hotel within 24 hours."

"That's good..." Shen Moshen nodded: "Since you, Chen Guyan, have personally guaranteed it, I can rest assured."

"What are the arrangements for the Crown Prince?"

"Return to your majesty!"

"We plan to have His Highness the Crown Prince's double attend the gala three days from now in his place."

Chen Guyan then reported to Shen Moshen: "I believe that we can use this opportunity to wipe out the Black-Clad Army's hidden forces within the capital!"

"This time, the Black-Clad Army has revealed all its trump cards in order to create a big stir in the capital!"
