Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 714 Yemengard
The cold weather in January finally brought Ming's military progress to a temporary halt.In less than three months of military operations, Ming has achieved jaw-dropping results.

Recovered the Basque Country and Catalonia region occupied by the Qing army, and counterattacked into France, basically expelling the Qing army from France of more than 50 square kilometers within these three months.It captured more than half of Austria and part of Hungary, and occupied most of the Balkan Peninsula. It conquered the "Nanjing" Yijing of the Western Qing Empire, and its soldiers pointed directly at the Bulgarian region.

The strong performance of the Ming army completely shattered the fantasies of those unrealistic elements, allowing them to fully recognize the power of the Ming Empire to crush everything, and realize that the victory of the war is destined to belong to the Ming Dynasty.

Although the main military operations of Ming Dynasty have come to an end, there are still some local conflicts and special operations.In particular, Jin Yiwei, the leader of Ming's intelligence work, still performs a large number of missions in Europe.

It is precisely because Jin Yiwei obtained a large amount of accurate and comprehensive military intelligence for the Ming army that the Ming army took the lead in combat and was able to accurately strike the Qing army, improving its combat efficiency.

In Belgrade, a city captured by the Ming Dynasty just a month ago, Meng Shinan, a senior agent of the Jinyiwei, was summoned by Ning San, the chief of operations of the European Division of the Jinyiwei.

Ning San has been following Duanmuwen for many years, and he has long been a powerful intelligence expert who can stand on his own.Duan Muwen left Europe for the time being, Ning San and Han Ye each led a mission in a region, and cooperated with other comrades to preside over Jin Yiwei's intelligence network and combat operations in Europe.

Senior agent Meng Shinan was considered quite old in the entire Jinyiwei, already in his fifties, but he looked rather young.Back then, he was a chivalrous man who followed Gu Yanwu, and because of his feud with the Man Qing family, he became an anti-Qing righteous man.Later, Gu Yanwu became an official of Nanming, and reached the high position of cabinet minister all the way, but he has passed away now.Meng Shinan, on the other hand, became a Jinyiwei, starting from the grassroots, and now he is a senior agent.

Meng Shinan, who was born as a knight, now looks like a more European aristocratic gentleman.He has a beard, touches his hair oil, and wears a polite, gentlemanly attire. He has a shirt, a vest, a formal attire, and a face scarf. He has a pocket watch chain in his arms, wears luxury leather shoes, and holds a civilized stick. Very classy and successful businessman.

On the contrary, his attire is not the style of the mainstream and upper class of the Ming Dynasty, because His Majesty the Guangfu Emperor himself advocates frugality and simple aesthetics, so there is a unique "basic style" attire in the Ming Dynasty.Plain but stylish formal suits, well-tailored and comfortable shirts, the emperor himself doesn't like to wear leather shoes, so he wears white casual shoes, and even the whole people like to read fashion magazines and learn how the emperor wears clothes.And those who dress extravagantly are usually people who are influenced by the European style.

Ning San had met Meng Shinan several times and knew that Meng Shinan had a cover identity in Europe as a businessman selling lamps.His identity can't be completely fake. Meng Shinan's lighting company really exists. It's actually a subsidiary of a state-owned enterprise with several layers of trusts and subsidiaries.This lighting company does have a lot of business in Europe and its profits are good.This model is also very consistent with Ming Dynasty's consistent practice of using a real thing to cover up their other purposes.However, Meng Shinan does not actually participate in operations management and business planning. There are people in the company who specialize in this, and he mainly uses this status to do some intelligence work.

Ning San smiled and said to Meng Shinan: "In the area occupied by the Qing army, life is very difficult, right?"

Meng Shinan sighed: "Twice, I was almost caught by the Qing army. Now there are no ordinary Ming people in the occupied area of ​​the Western Qing Dynasty, and the people left behind must be Jin Yiwei who didn't escape. I dare not reveal Xingzang, only dare to secretly Hide in the safe house and let your local intelligence agents do the work."

Ning San patted his arm: "Finally you're back now, this matter is over, and you can take a good vacation."

Meng Shinan said with a smile: "After playing in Europe, the job of our Jinyiwei should also change. I will be 60 years old in a few years, maybe it's time to retire."

After he said this, he looked a little serious, and said to Ning San: "Director Ning, this time you came back to find me, and I happen to have something to report to you."

Ning San looked at his solemn expression, and said seriously, "Say it."

"Xiqing is probably planning a very dangerous thing. Since more than three years ago, we have always found a term 'Yemengade' mentioned by Xiqing in some clues."

"Jörmungandr? This is the earthly serpent in Norse mythology."

Meng Shinan nodded: "That's right, but everyone on the Xiqing side has been vague about this. We can't even tell if Yemengade is a person, a place, or a plan."

He continued: "But recently, we have heard more content about Jormungandr. We spent a lot of money, and now we finally got some internal information about Jormungandr. Jormungandr is the western There is a very high-level secret plan within the Qing Dynasty. Except for a small number of people, no outsiders know about it. We have no way of knowing exactly what this secret plan is, but we can judge from some traces that the Jormungandr plan is likely to be a Western project. Qing is building a very powerful doomsday weapon."

Ning San listened very attentively, and said seriously: "Is there any radioactive substance involved?"

Meng Shinan shook his head: "No, I know what you are referring to, Director Ning. Is the harmonious bomb we made correct? We also have certain precautions against this. For example, in Norway and the Southern Netherlands, they did not take any action. They also lack corresponding knowledge in this area. The doomsday weapon I am talking about is a weapon completely different from the harmony bomb."

"Do you know what effect it can have? Is it also a weapon of mass destruction?"

"It's not completely confirmed now, but I guess it should be like this." Meng Shinan was extremely serious.

Ning San frowned deeply, "There is such a thing, Xiqing is researching doomsday weapons of mass destruction, their scientific line is completely plagiarized and imitated from ours, and now they can still do original research? It’s kind of unbelievable.”

Meng Shinan also said: "So some of our comrades feel that this may be a strategy to deceive the enemy. There is no such thing as the Yemengard plan. But I think it is better to be cautious. I hope that the organization can send more resources, to figure out what the Yermungandrad plan is, before it causes serious harm to me, Ming."
