Chapter 1072 - 1005: Both Spontaneous and Premeditated
The reference to Midway Island is a well-known story, and decades later, if China’s territory were to extend there, "AF lacks fresh water" might just become an idiom.
The cipher-related story it embodies is also straightforward, so Qi Changye and the others quickly grasped Jiang Yuan’s analysis.
"So, the oil printing facility is the place Li Dianzhong often references in his ciphers?" Qi Changye pondered, then spoke: "Is that because he works there? No, a courier shouldn’t expose his workplace to other members of the spy group. Repeated exposure is even more unnecessary. In that case, the oil printing facility must be the operational target of this spy group?"

"I’ll write it down for you." Jiang Yuan, whose expertise in cryptography had yet to be fully recognized, was in no rush to showcase his abilities. He calmly wrote down several pages and handed them over to Qi Changye to pass on to the cryptography experts for verification.
Qi Changye hurriedly contacted headquarters to update the information.
