The lack of intelligence in Dadu has always been an anxious matter for the Intelligence Agency, after Zhang Wenqian came to Chengdu Fucheng, the intelligence of Dadu began to decline sharply, although there are Han ministers in the Mongolian court, but whether they can fight for it, no one has a bottom in their hearts, Yuan Shichun did not force Tong Weihua, after all, he has been engaged in intelligence collection in Dadu for a long time, and his own danger is huge, and he cannot ensure his own safety.

Wu Shaogang also meant this, and did not force most of the capital to obtain important information.

As the Hezhou Imperial Army and the Dingkun Army prepared for battle, the intelligence of the capital was very important.

Liu Bingzhong, Dou Mo, Xu Heng, Zhang Wenqian and others all wrote letters and brought them to Dadu, and these letters were addressed to Yao Shu, Shi Tianze and others, with the same meaning, exhorting these people to submit to the Great Song Dynasty.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed, and the information sent back by Tong Weihua did not mention the situation of Yao Shu, Shi Tianze and others.

The army is ready for everything, and the arrow has to be fired.

It was also at this time that Tong Weihua's information came, and the information actually mentioned the Mongolian court again, which made Yuan Shichun overjoyed, and hurriedly reported it directly to Wu Shaogang.

Not many people know about the information about Dadu, and the people who make the Yamen know are Li Tingzhi, Hao Jing, Cao Wengang and others, and the particularly important information is almost known to Li Tingzhi, which is also from the perspective of security, to avoid problems in Dadu's intelligence network.

When the information arrived, Wu Shaogang was still in the barracks to participate in the exercise.

Yuan Shichun sent the information directly to the barracks.

The drill was a top-secret operation, and no one was allowed to approach it, and the surrounding area was completely a martial law measure.

Wu Shaogang carefully looked at the information that had not yet had time to be sorted out.

In fact, there is no special information in the intelligence, only about Kublai Khan's request to Prince Hedan to strengthen the attack on Xiangyang Mansion and strive to capture Xiangyang Mansion as soon as possible.

This news also aroused the attention of Wu Shaogang, although it was said that the Yamen had already made an analysis of the Jiedu Envoy, believing that Kublai Khan and the Mongol Imperial Court were unwilling to delay time and would strengthen the attack on the Xiangyang Mansion City, but this was only the prediction of the Jiedu Envoy Yamen, and no one could assert what the real situation was.

It seems that Kublai Khan and the Mongol court have attached great importance to the situation in Sichuan, and do not want the Central Plains to make waves again, so they asked Hedan to capture Xiangyang Fucheng as soon as possible, and then transfer most of the troops to Sichuan to fight.

After reading the information and thinking for a while, Wu Shaogang looked at Yuan Shichun and spoke.

"Yuan Shichun, what do you think of this information sent back by Tong Weihua."

Yuan Shichun did not hesitate at all, and immediately spoke.

"My lord, my subordinates think that Tong Weihua should once again have a channel to obtain information from the Mongolian court, and the Han ministers in the Mongolian court have been squeezed out like never before, and it is almost impossible to know anything important, and they can obtain such important information, unless it is an important Han minister in the Mongolian court, or even a Han minister who does things in the Mongolian court."

Wu Shaogang agreed with Yuan Shichun's analysis.

"Your analysis is good, so whether Tong Weihua obtained this information from Yao Shu, Shi Tianze, or other Han ministers that we didn't pay special attention to."

"This, the subordinate is expected to come from Shi Tianze, Shi Tianze is the deputy privy envoy of the Privy Council of the Mongolian court, and he can obtain information in these aspects...

Before Yuan Shichun finished speaking, Wu Shaogang shook his head slightly.

"I think this information should come from Yao Shu, if it is the information provided by Shi Tianze, it will be much more detailed, no matter how the Mongolian court excludes the Han ministers, Shi Tianze's position is different, and he will definitely be able to obtain detailed information on military deployment, if these information are fed back to Tong Weihua, Tong Weihua will report it in the fastest time, at the same time, Shi Tianze's identity is different, he is a military general, and he has been leading troops to fight for many years, and his thinking will be rougher, not so meticulous, If Shi Tianze is willing to submit to us, then the movement will be extraordinary. ”

"Yao Shu is different, he was born as a scholar, and he is most concerned about the emperor's learning, the way of governing the country, and advocating Confucianism, so he has been valued by Kublai Khan, Yao Shu's focus is not on military matters, so Yao Shu provided information to Tong Weihua, and military matters are much more ambiguous."

Yuan Shichun listened; nodded again and again, and after Wu Shaogang finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask.

"My lord, since Yao Shu is willing to submit to us, why is it not mentioned in Tong Weihua's information? . . ."

Wu Shaogang glanced at Yuan Shichun, which made Yuan Shichun come to his senses, and his face quickly turned red.

This should have been something for the Intelligence Service to figure out.

However, Wu Shaogang still spoke.

"Tong Weihua did not talk about this matter, it must be that the time is not ripe, or that the other party still has concerns in his heart, and he is more cautious in doing things, Hao Jing, Liu Bingzhong, Zhang Wenqian, Dou Mo, Xu Heng, Guo Shoujing, Zhang Rou, Zhang Hongluo and Zhang Hongfan and others, all of them have taken refuge in this situation, in this case, will Kublai Khan and the Mongolian court not have any vigilance, will they not pay attention to this matter, even if Yao Shu has the heart to surrender, under the current situation, he does not dare to act rashly, once he is detected by Kublai Khan and the Mongolian court, I'm afraid it's not as simple as being imprisoned, and it's possible for the whole family to suffer. ”

Yuan Shichun blushed and nodded.

"The Intelligence Agency also needs to change its view, even if Yao Shu and Shi Tianze and others have the heart to surrender, they can't come to Sichuan immediately, they need to stay in Dadu, they can't have any unrealistic measures, Tong Weihua has done his best in Dadu, if he continues to make any moves, he is also very likely to be exposed, whether it is Yao Shu or Shi Tianze, thinking of coming to Sichuan, we can't afford to relocate their families, if it is because of their own submission to us, but it has led to the killing of their families, Do you think Yao Shu or Shi Tianze can do things for us with all their might? ”

After Wu Shaogang finished speaking, Yuan Shichun clenched his fists and spoke.

"What the lord said is that this is a matter that should be analyzed by subordinates, and it is all the negligence of subordinates."

"Well, that's right, these things, the Intelligence Agency must have an accurate analysis and come up with practical countermeasures, I think from now on, the Intelligence Agency should not urge Tong Weihua, let alone mention the matter of plotting against the Han ministers in the Mongolian court, the war is about to begin, intelligence is very important to us, but what we need to pay more attention to is our own strength."

In the next few days, a steady stream of information about Dadu arrived in Sichuan.

This information came more from the internal affairs of the Mongol court.

At the beginning of November, an important piece of information finally appeared.

After holding the Tarasi Conference in Mobei and electing Haidu as the leader of the alliance, they openly opposed Kublai Khan and the Mongol court, and sent envoys to the Mongol court, publicly condemning Kublai Khan and the Mongol court for building the capital in the place where the Han people lived, and abandoning the Mongolian steppe and the Mongol tribes.

Because the power of Haidu and others began to grow unprecedentedly, Kublai Khan was no longer able to send a large army to conquer at will, and the attention of Kublai Khan and the Mongolian court had been focused on the Great Song Dynasty, and he had no energy to deal with the great changes in Mobei, so Kublai Khan and the Mongolian court acquiesced to the changes in Mobei.

This is quite important information.

Without making a comprehensive analysis, the Intelligence Agency directly reported to Wu Shaogang.

Wu Shaogang summoned Hao Jing, Zhang Wenqian, Dou Mo, Xu Heng, Zhang Hongfan and others to analyze and study this information.

In the process of discussion, Zhang Wenqian put forward a very important view, he believes that Kublai Khan and the Mongolian court, has begun to understand which is more important, compared with the Central Plains and the south, after all, it is not so important, although Kublai Khan is a Mongolian, but his vision has been looking at the world, will not be limited to the Mobei grassland, once the Central Plains and the south, unify the world, and turn back to deal with the great changes in the Mobei grassland, there is enough strength and confidence, otherwise not only can not suppress the rebellion in Mobei, It could also lead to dramatic changes in the situation in the south as well.

Zhang Wenqian's analysis was approved by everyone.

Wu Shaogang also agreed with Zhang Wenqian's analysis, Kublai Khan was not an ordinary person after all, he was able to judge the situation and make important decisions, although this decision was unfavorable to the Song court and Sichuan.

The situation of the Mongolian court has changed, and the Sichuan side will naturally change as well.

Although Kublai Khan and the Mongolian steppe acquiesced to the great changes in the Mobei grassland, and no longer sent a large army to conquer, but Haidu and others in the Mobei grassland may not be willing, once there is a change in the Central Plains, Haidu and others are likely to send a large army to conquer, trying to expand the territory on a larger scale, rather than being limited to the Mobei grassland.

Kublai Khan and the Mongol court were indeed very powerful, but they could not resist attacks from many sides.

The most likely situation is that Kublai Khan and the Mongol court must fight on three sides, one is the Battle of Xiangyang, the second is the Battle of the Central Plains, and the third is the Battle of Mobei.

This is the opportunity for Sichuan, and it is also the best opportunity for Wu Shaogang.

It is urgent to send troops, and it is necessary to occupy more places in the Central Plains and strengthen their own strength in a short period of time, taking advantage of the fact that the Mongol army has not yet taken the city of Xiangyang. (To be continued.) )
