Chapter 590: Ji Tonghai was arrested
Jiang Beiming had not yet set off in Dengzhou, and Dolgon went to Tsushima Island first.
After listening to Ji Tonghai's white work, Dolgon became more and more puzzled, what will happen in a few years, will the imperial brother Huang Taiji really die and ascend to heaven, and how will he deal with it. At present, he is alone in North Korea, and after thinking about it, Dolgon decided to go to Tsushima and have a showdown with Tao Min and ask this matter clearly.
Tao Min had already received the news sent back by the Dengzhou agents, the Ming army had gathered 50,000 horses in Dengzhou, and the news came out that they were going to attack Nanpu. Tao Min didn't have too much to worry about, the city defense construction of Nanpu has not stopped over the years, there are dozens of city defense artillery alone, plus Dolgon's 10,000 banners, Nanpu garrison 30,000, 50,000 Ming army only 7,000 Yulin army, they can't beat Nanpu. Tao Min had already made up his mind to use Nanpu and Tsushima Island to drag Yulin Bay, and when there was a problem with their supply line, he would naturally withdraw his troops, and he could attack Japan without any worries.
Dolgon's arrival surprised Tao Min, and the last time he went back, he told the Prince Rui all about the situation, why he came to Tsushima now, didn't he know that Nanpu was about to be attacked.
Dolgon squeaked and expressed his meaning to Tao Min, and repeatedly emphasized that because of He Tongsuan's hexagram, he was very worried about the safety of Huang Taiji.
Tao Min finally understood what Dolgon meant, he really had the intention of uniting with himself to replace Huang Taiji, which made Tao Min very happy. But Tao Min didn't agree immediately, and just dealt with Dolgon with words.
Tao Min was in no hurry to deal with Dolgon on the surface, but he was secretly anxious in his heart. How could He Tong know that Sheng Jing would change greatly in a few years, and why did he tell Dolgon the news. The only person who can know that Huang Taiji died suddenly in Shengjing is the traveler of Yulin Bay, could it be that He Tong was really sent by Yulin Bay. I have suspected him for so long, but I have never been able to find evidence.
Tao Min returned to his house after settling Dolgon: "Brother, get ready, I will rush back to Nanpu with Dolgon immediately." ”
Tao Gong was stunned by his brother again: "Brother, why do you want to go back again, didn't you just come back not long ago?" ”
"Things have changed." Tao Min expressed his suspicions about Ji Tonghai.
Tao Gong also felt that this matter was a little strange, He Tong would never be a hexagram, he must be fooling Dolgon, but how could he know what would happen in a few years: "Brother, how do you plan to deal with He Tong?" ”
"Dolgon is not in Nanpu now, and the Ming army may attack Nanpu at any time, so I have to go back." Tao Min said, "Regardless of whether He Tong is a traitor in Yulin Bay or not, we can't use this person anymore." Regardless of whether there is evidence or not, go back and lock him up first, and slowly interrogate him. Brother, after I'm gone, you have to cheer up. Although the Ming army is most likely to attack Nampo, they may also come to Tsushima, so you must be vigilant. ”
"Don't worry, brother, I will." Tao Gong patted his chest and reassured.
When Tao Min and Dolgon returned to Nampo, Nampo was in a state of singing and dancing, and was not attacked in any way. Tao Min had some doubts in his heart, didn't the Ming army come to fight Nanpu, they really wanted to attack Tsushima Island?
Tao Min put this matter aside for a while, and then figured out He Tong first.
"Someone." Tao Min shouted, "Go and invite Mr. He to me." ”
After a while, Ji Tonghai walked into Tao Min's room, but felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and there were several people from the fast gun team standing in the room.
"Mr. He is here." Tao Min turned around from the map hanging on the wall, "Mr. Lao He has bothered these days when this king is away. ”
"The prince has won the award." Ji Tonghai hurriedly replied, "It is the blessing of a slave to serve the prince." ”
"I heard that Mr. He met his family a few days ago, and this king congratulates Mr. He."
After Tao Min returned to Nanpu, he already knew about Ji Tonghai's recognition of his clan brother, which increased Tao Min's suspicions, how could there be such a coincidental thing in the world. The key is that within a few days of acquaintance, this brother returned to the Ming Dynasty, which can't be explained.
"A little thing, there is Lord Lao to worry about." Ji Tonghai listened to Tao Min ask about this, and he was a little nervous in his heart.
Tao Min didn't mention this again, but said lightly: "This king heard that Mr. He calculated a hexagram for Prince Rui, Mr. He has been here for so long, this king actually didn't know that Mr. He could also tell a hexagram, Mr. is really hidden." ”
"The prince is too worried." Ji Tonghai hurriedly explained, "The slave is worried about the return of the clan brother, so he has only recently learned to tell the hexagram, and the slave is too shallow to compare with the prince." ”
"Mr. He's hexagram is very accurate, and he can actually calculate what will happen in a few years." Tao Min was still smiling, "I wonder if Mr. can calculate a hexagram for this king, and if there is a big change in this king?" ”
"The prince laughed, how could a slave have such ability."
Tao Min's face suddenly changed: "He Tong, who are you?" You have been here with this king for so many years, this king has treated you well, today you just need to tell the truth, everything is easy to say, otherwise Hugh blames this king for turning his face and being ruthless. ”
Ji Tonghai was shocked, and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Why did the prince say this, the slave doesn't know what rumors the prince heard." The past of the slave is known, the slave is not the same as the Ming Dynasty, so the prince came to defect, the prince said so, the slave is hard to distinguish. ”
"You really don't say it?"
"The prince is clear, the slave does not have anything to deceive the prince." Ji Tonghai knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Mr. He, the king has already made it clear to you. If you don't talk about it here, there is a place where you will speak. Tao Min waved his hand, "Take him down first and detain him carefully." ”
A few people from the fast gun team came up and pulled Ji Tonghai up from the ground and dragged him out, Ji Tonghai shouted while struggling: "Lord Wang, the slave is loyal to the prince." ”
Ji Tonghai was escorted down, and Tao Min sat quietly in the room thinking about his thoughts.
"Lord Qiqi." A person from the fast gun team hurriedly walked in from outside, "Lushun reported urgently that Jinzhou was attacked by 50,000 Ming troops. ”
"They actually went to fight the Golden State." Tao Min was stunned, "Does Prince Rui know?" ”
"Prince Rui already knows." The visitor replied, "Prince Rui asks the prince to come over." ”
Tao Min came to Dolgon's residence, and Dolgon was wandering around the house: "Lord Wang, the Ming army has attacked Jinzhou, and if Jinzhou is lost, Lushun will not be guaranteed, so we must return to help quickly." ”
"Don't worry, Lord Wang." Tao Min calmed down instead, "Rong Min, think about it." ”
