Chapter 1885 Anti-Corruption Storm
With the commencement of disarmament of the national defense forces.
A large number of veterans of the National Defense Forces are facing retirement.
For these veterans, the army is their home.
Returning to normal life would actually make them feel uncomfortable.
However, as a national defense force, they possess a high degree of self-confidence.
Despite the military's order to reduce troop numbers, they chose to comply.
Because they know that the money saved will be used in more useful ways.
Due to the special existence of the intelligence agency, there are fewer and fewer corrupt officials.
Especially after the Orc Empire's resistance was crushed three years ago, the intelligence agency launched a crackdown on corruption among officials around the world.
The focus is on those regions that have just been incorporated.
If local officials exploit and oppress the people, they can shift all the blame onto the Great Yan.
They wouldn't even have time to cry.
Therefore, in order to prevent this phenomenon from occurring.
Three years ago, the intelligence agency launched a massive anti-corruption campaign.
A rigorous screening was conducted around the world.
At the same time, Congress allocated funds to the intelligence agency, increasing its temporary staff to 120 million.
What is this concept?
The intelligence agency, including its outsourced personnel, now has a total staff exceeding the combined total of the defense force and space force.
It can only be said that the intelligence agency has now become a terrifying entity.
If it weren't for the fact that the head of the intelligence agency was the loyal Hans, Lyon wouldn't have given the intelligence agency such great power.
If someone else were to become the head of the intelligence agency, they would inevitably harbor evil intentions in the face of such immense power.
This is not a small amount of power.
The intelligence agency has now become a world-class organization.
It can monitor officials around the world.
Once it is discovered that an official has embezzled or accepted bribes, or violated the code of conduct for officials.
These non-official personnel of the intelligence agency would then immediately report this information to the intelligence agency.
Regardless of whether the information is true or not, the intelligence agency will send its staff to investigate.
If the news is true, then this official is in big trouble.
At the same time, this non-staff member will also have the opportunity for promotion.
He will most likely become a full-fledged member of the intelligence agency.
However, if the intelligence is wrong, this unofficial staff member will lose their job completely.
Both Hans and Lyon encouraged and supported the people of Dayan to report these corrupt officials.
Lyon hadn't seen many corrupt officials, but he knew they were parasites on the state.
That's why they wholeheartedly support anti-corruption efforts.
Hans, however, was different; he had been genuinely oppressed by corrupt officials.
I know how much ordinary people hate these corrupt officials.
They also knew that these corrupt officials likely had protectors and their own influence in the local area.
Ordinary people simply cannot stand up against these corrupt officials.
And the intelligence agency is their solid backing.
For these corrupt officials, the intelligence agency became their only means of countermeasure.
In the first three years, the intelligence agency received only a few complaints.
However, to the intelligence agency's surprise, all of these complaints were accurate.
In the beginning, ordinary people didn't dare to come to the intelligence bureau to complain.
They believed that the intelligence agency was in cahoots with these corrupt officials.
However, as more and more corrupt officials were arrested, the people gradually began to trust the intelligence agency.
Corrupt officials in various regions have been arrested one after another.
Eventually, ordinary people started searching everywhere for corrupt officials around them.
This has led many corrupt officials to hide all the money they have embezzled.
I was so scared that I didn't dare spend a single penny.
Because if you spend money from dubious sources, sharp-eyed citizens will notice and report it to the intelligence agency without hesitation.
Adhering to the principle of "whether there are dates or not, we'll still try our best."
More and more ordinary people are taking the initiative to report their situations to the intelligence bureau.
Sometimes, some intelligence is completely fabricated.
This has led to fewer and fewer corrupt officials, while the intelligence agencies are becoming increasingly busy.
There's nothing we can do; the people of Dayan are just too enthusiastic.
Of course, this does not exclude the possibility that some people with ulterior motives may use this method to make false accusations.
Therefore, Lyon always instructed Hans to manage his men well and ensure that every case had solid evidence.
Lyon didn't really trust those unofficial staff members.
Because they are not official agents of the intelligence agency.
Official agents of the intelligence agency need to undergo rigorous training.
They possess extremely high moral character.
These unofficial staff members could easily accept bribes to help corrupt officials escape punishment.
That's why intelligence agents are always present during investigations.
Furthermore, at least three intelligence agency agents must each take on the case.
These three intelligence agents did not interact with each other.
This ensured fairness and impartiality.
At the same time, a rigorous investigation was conducted to determine whether these three intelligence agents had any connections with corrupt officials.
Under such stringent conditions, no corrupt official can hide.
Three years later, corrupt officials around the world are rarer than giant pandas.
There may be corrupt officials lying in wait, but these corrupt officials will always be in a miserable situation of being so poor that they dare not spend money.
It's not that they don't want to spend money, it's that they simply don't dare to spend it.
All that greedy money has been spent.
It would mean sending yourself to the guillotine...
