The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 460 Jim's Intelligence

The scouts under Marin also used binoculars to see the battle of the Bossa coalition to eliminate the fake reinforcements on the northern route. Marin didn't care about the life and death of the Northern Route Army. Anyway, it was a fake army, and it would not be a pity to be wiped out.

The problem was that Marin didn't know whether the news of the real reinforcements had leaked out. This makes Marin very worried.

It was mentioned in a letter from Woolf Esbrand to him that the Northern Road Army was led by a knight named Sdenier. This person is one of Woolf Esbrand's cronies, and obviously knows the movements of the real reinforcements.

If this person told Frederick III and Joachim I about the real reinforcements, then whether reinforcements should be sent must be reconsidered.

Once the Bursa coalition learned of the existence of the reinforcements and laid traps early, waiting for the reinforcements to jump in, it would be bad. Therefore, Marin decided to find a way to infiltrate the Bursa coalition camp, inquire about the news, and see if the news is leaked.

As for how to send people into the Bursa coalition camp? This is not difficult. Because, as the war progressed, Marin's scouts discovered that some merchants in Hamburg and Lübeck, because of their pessimism about the war, had secretly turned to Frederick III.

As for how to take refuge? It is nothing more than secretly sending family members, with a large amount of food and supplies, to the Bosa coalition camp. At the same time, show allegiance to Frederick III and Joachim I.

After that, Marin also sent people to arrest and torture the representatives who went to the ****. Then I learned that if the amount of food and supplies of the **** is relatively large, there may be a possibility of being received by Frederick III and Joachim I.

Of course, people are not stupid and will not give you the opportunity to assassinate. Anyone who went to meet Frederick III and Joachim I had to be searched, and no weapons were allowed to enter. Moreover, at the time of the meeting, the large tent was full of knights. If you want to do it, you have to ask those knights who are highly skilled in martial arts to agree or not.

However, what Marin wants to know most now is whether the information has been leaked, not the assassination of Frederick III and Joachim I.

So, Marin chose a spy named Locke and asked him to pretend to be the son of a wealthy businessman in Lübeck, and asked him to take a large amount of supplies to the Bosa coalition camp to **** in order to get close to the big tent. .

As long as you enter the tent, or see Jim near the tent, Jim will tell him specific information through code words and gestures...

Locke set off soon, posing as the youngest son of a great Lübeck merchant family named Schmolt. Although the Schmalt family has not yet joined the Bossa coalition, they have been shaken before, and they have sent someone to write a very ambiguous letter to Frederick III, and also sent a box of money.

Of course, this does not mean that the Schmalt family has really joined the Bursa coalition, but it is just the characteristic of businessmen's consistent two-sided bet.

Until now, because the city of Lübeck is unbreakable, the Schmalt family has not decided to really join the Bursa coalition...

After Marin knew the news, he decided to send Locke to the **** in the name of the Schmalt family with a large amount of grain and livestock to show his attitude of surrender.

In fact, this kind of surrender was just for the merchants to avoid being sacked by the Allied Forces of Bosa after the city was destroyed, and it was not the kind of comprehensive surrender. Even the representative Locke pretended to be was only the youngest son of the head of the Schmalt family, and he was the one who was usually not welcome.

If you are fully committed, it will be different. At this time, it should be the eldest son of the family who came forward, which is also equivalent to sending the family heir as a proton. Moreover, after the full surrender, the Schmolt family even gambled on the family's future, and was responsible for opening the city gates from the city and enlarging the army to enter the city during the siege.

However, as a very wealthy merchant family, the Schmalt family, the eldest heir is also a man of the hour, and many people have seen it. There is only Maurice, the youngest son of the family owner, because he is withdrawn and does not go out often, so it is better to pretend to be. As for the eldest son, John, there may be some people in the Bursa coalition who know him.

Not good to pretend. Therefore, Marin can only let Locke pretend to be Morris and go to the ****.

After Locke arrived at the barracks of the Bursa coalition with a dozen carts of grain and a large flock of sheep, he was very popular because he brought the most scarce meat animals in the barracks. After all, the food brought by the 50,000 Bosa coalition forces was mostly grain for the convenience of transportation, with very little meat, only some bacon and sausages. At this time, there was a shortage of fresh meat in the barracks. Before, the coalition soldiers grabbed some cattle and sheep outside the city of Lübeck, but there were so many people in the Bursa coalition that they quickly ran out. Today, with thousands of sheep, Locke is very popular with soldiers. Of course, it is mainly the officers who are more welcome. After all, there are thousands of sheep, and there are a lot of them, but there are more soldiers, and it is very difficult for the soldiers to eat. Only officers are qualified to get some fresh mutton to satisfy their cravings.

In order to commend Locke's contribution and commend the "Schmalt family", Frederick III and Joachim I indeed summoned "the young master of the Schmalt family, Morris" - Locke in the main tent.

Sitting at the bottom of the tent, when Locke looked up, he saw Jim standing beside him. In fact, Jim was not eligible for the big account. However, Jim used his flickering ability to persuade the guard officer and let him in to watch the fun at the gate of the tent. So Locke saw his boss Jim.

After pretending to be grateful and interacting with Frederick III, Locke pretended to be casual and started fiddling with the wine bowl in his hand. It seems to be playing around, but it's actually sending a code to Jim.

This method was naturally taught by Marin. In a previous life, Marin had seen on TV that the people of Hongmen communicated with secret codes by placing tea bowls. So, it also taught the spies some simple ways to communicate by placing bowls.

Locke changed the bowls and placed them in several ways, as if they were playing, but Jim understood - this was Locke asking how the situation was...

In fact, Jim knew better that Locke wanted to ask if the reinforcements had been leaked. Jim shook his head covertly towards Locke, and then made a silent gesture - go to the toilet...

After making the gesture, Jim quietly exited the tent and went to the toilet. Then, I squatted down quietly in the toilet, but didn't really fly...

Soon, Locke came over. Seeing Locke coming, Jim quickly lifted his trousers, then put a rag on the edge of the puddle, and winked at him...

When Locke unbuttoned his pants, he saw that there was no one on either side, and quickly tucked the rag into his boots...

Originally, when Locke went to the toilet, someone accompanied him. The main purpose is to monitor his actions to prevent him from running around and spying on the intelligence in the army. If Jim and Locke squatted there together and said a few words, it might arouse suspicion. But Jim was very clever. When he saw Locke coming, he left the rag and left without talking to Locke. The soldier in charge of accompanying Locke to the toilet naturally did not see any communication between the two. When Locke took the opportunity to pick up the rag when he took off his pants, the soldier in charge of accompanying him didn't see it either. Because, he did not follow into the kennel range, but just watched from a distance. After all, the thatched pit is so stinky...
