Tong Weihua's place of root is in the north of Yanjing Road, at this time, Yanjing Road, has not yet become the capital of the Mongolian Dynasty, not particularly prosperous, Tong Weihua collected a lot of information, has not attracted the attention of the Intelligence Agency, on the contrary, Luo Sulin sent from Chengdu Fucheng, but has become the focus of the Intelligence Agency's research, in addition to the information sent by the fourth master from the capital, as well as the intelligence obtained from other aspects of the Lianghuai, is also the focus of the Intelligence Agency. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, the intelligence from Mongolia is the most important, after all, they are Wu Shaogang's most formidable opponents, but the Mongolian court is in the grassland, too remote, coupled with the habitual nomadic life of the Mongolian tribes, Tong Weihua has no way to adapt, I am afraid that if he enters the Mongolian grassland, he will be paid special attention, not to mention collecting intelligence, it is difficult to survive.

Wu Shaogang and the Intelligence Agency will not embarrass Tong Weihua, and the task given to Tong Weihua is to take root in the north, try to stabilize as much as possible, and then consider collecting intelligence when the opportunity is right.

The information sent by Luo Sulin is indeed very important, because Wu Shaogang's next target is to target Chengdu Fu Road.

In the capital, Wu Shaogang was faintly worried, the information provided by the fourth master gradually became less, and he didn't know what the situation was, so he said that Jia Rudao forcibly promoted the matter of the Gongtian Law, and the information provided by the fourth master was a little vague, and it was not very far from the news on the newspaper, and it did not play a role.

This time, the information sent back by Tong Weihua also did not attract the attention of the Intelligence Agency, but it was slightly mentioned in the many documents sorted out, that is, the Privy Council was established by the Mongolian court.

In fact, many institutions of the Mongolian court were slowly improved step by step, and they all learned from the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin State, and the Han ministers around Kublai Khan also gave a lot of suggestions and implemented them.

The Privy Council is the highest military administration body, assisting the emperor in all military and political matters.

The Privy Council established by the Mongol Dynasty had the crown prince concurrently serving as the Privy Councillor, which was a fictitious title, but in fact it was directly controlled by the Great Khan, and Shi Tianze and Ku Rachu were appointed as the deputy envoys of the Privy Council.

This information aroused Wu Shaogang's attention, and also Hao Jing's attention.

It's a strange appointment.

The power of the Privy Council is very large, in charge of all military matters of the country, since the Mongolian court decided to set up a Privy Council, that is, it needs to unify the jurisdiction of the army, it is said that the privy envoys and deputy envoys of the Privy Council should be Mongolian magnates, you must know that the main military force of Mongolia, in the final analysis, is composed of tribal armies.

This stems from the particularity of Mongolia's topography, the Mongolian Great Khan was actually recommended by various Mongolian tribes, but later slowly evolved, fixed as a system of inheritance, and the person who can become the Mongolian Great Khan is undoubtedly the most powerful person among the Mongolian tribes, and this particularity of the Mongolian tribe has continued until the demise of the Great Yuan Dynasty in history.

Every change of emperor in the history of the Great Yuan Dynasty, almost will encounter a bloody storm, the reason is that the tribes compete with each other's strength, nomadic living habits, so that the Mongols are accustomed to advocating power and strength, the idea of filial piety and imperial power basically does not exist, who is strong, who may become the emperor, as for the heir to the emperor, may not be able to successfully ascend to the throne.

It is precisely this kind of internal friction that makes the powerful Great Yuan Dynasty decline in the shortest possible time.

Kublai Khan and Abuligo are such examples, although Kublai Khan was already the Great Khan of the Mongols, unfortunately Abuligo did not admit it, gathered some Mongol tribes, and began a crusade against Kublai Khan.

In every battle of the Mongol court, regardless of the size of the battle, the commander who led the troops was almost always a Mongol prince.

Now that it has become the Privy Council, the Privy Counsellor does not need to say much, but the Privy Counsellor is very incomprehensible.

Suddenly, he is the Ronglu doctor and deputy marshal of the Mongolian court, not to mention Shi Tianze, although he is the marshal of the capital, he is a Han Chinese, and these two people cannot have much appeal among the Mongolian magnates.

Why did Kublai Khan let these two people serve as deputy envoys of the Privy Council, not to mention that Shi Tianze, who suffered a defeat in the Battle of Huaibei and suffered heavy losses, is not qualified to serve as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council at all.

After some thought, Wu Shaogang faintly saw the mystery.

Hao Jing, Huang Jiaming, Cai Siwei and Yuan Shichun and others all came to the wing of the mansion.

As soon as he entered the door, before everyone had time to sit down, Wu Shaogang pointed to the document in his hand and spoke.

"Mongolia set up the Privy Council, the appointment of the Privy Council, the Privy Envoy Deputy Envoy information, Mr. Hao and I discussed twice, we both feel strange, why the Mongolian prince was not able to serve as the Privy Council, after these few days of thinking, I vaguely understand the meaning, it seems that Kublai Khan has begun to make a big move."

"As you all know, from the sixth year of Baoyou to the first year of Tianqing, the Mongolian Khan Meng Ge once led a large army to invade, in a vain attempt to destroy my Great Song Dynasty in one fell swoop, that time Kublai Khan also participated in the battle, and led a large army to fight alone, a few years have passed, the Mongolian court because of internal turmoil, unable to march south, my Great Song Dynasty court has also stabilized a lot."

"In fact, Kublai Khan's intention to destroy my Great Song Dynasty has always existed, but it is a pity that the rebellion of his younger brother Abuligo involved too much of his energy, so that he had no way to go south again, and he could only try his best to stabilize the interior."

"Now, Kublai Khan has begun to make a move, and the establishment of the Privy Council is the best proof of this."

"Don't think that this is Kublai Khan's move to stabilize the Mongol tribes, and his real purpose is to march south."

"The Mongol cavalry was brave, but as you all know, they were made up of various tribes, and in many cases they were loyal to the leaders of the tribes, not necessarily to the Mongol Great Khan, and the Abuligo rebellion, that is, gathered some of the leaders of the Mongol tribes and launched an attack on Kublai Khan."

"Such a situation is very unfavorable for Kublai Khan to gather strength, if the key moment of the conquest, each tribe is independent, then Kublai Khan's ambition will be ruined, and there is almost no chance to turn over, so Kublai Khan thought of setting up a privy council to control the army of the Mongol tribes."

"As for the privy envoy and deputy privy envoy of the Privy Council, they must be people who Kublai Khan can directly control, if the Mongolian prince is appointed, it is difficult to rest assured, so he appointed Ku Rachu and Shi Tianze as the privy deputy envoys, these two people are loyal to Kublai Khan, and there will be no changes, and these two people are also unable to be won over by other Mongolian princes."

"Through the Privy Council, Kublai Khan can justifiably integrate the armies of the Mongol tribes, and for those Mongol princes who do not obey orders, he can do it unceremoniously, after all, the Privy Council is the highest military body."

"Kublai Khan's establishment of the Privy Council, its ultimate goal must be to integrate the armies of the Mongol tribes and prepare for the southern expedition, but from this matter, I also saw another fact, that is, Abuligo's rebellion is no longer a great threat to Kublai Khan, or Abuligo has lost a lot of support and cannot compete with Kublai Khan."

。。。

After Wu Shaogang finished speaking, Hao Jing also spoke.

"The subordinates feel that the adult's analysis is completely accurate, Kublai Khan, this person, has a strong confidence, when the conquest of Ezhou, if it were not for Abuligo's movements, he would not have withdrawn the army, he must think about capturing Ezhou, close to Lin'an, and then the withdrawal of the army was also forced, but Kublai Khan did not expect that Abuligo actually openly opposed, and led the army to conquer, which made Kublai Khan have to turn to suppress Abuligo's rebellion, counting Abuligo's rebellion, it is already the fifth year, many years of conquest, Kublai Khan should have completely grasped the initiative and was able to completely quell Abuligo's rebellion in a short period of time. ”

"Under such circumstances, Kublai Khan must have completely stabilized the Mongol court in a very short period of time, and then he will prepare for a large-scale southern expedition."

There was silence in the room, and this kind of analysis was not good news for everyone.

Wu Shaogang looked at everyone and spoke again.

"We must make all the preparations, before Kublai Khan's large-scale southern expedition, strengthen our own strength, our set goal is still the same, the west attack to recover Chengdu Fu Road, and then the south attack to take Yunnan, and at the same time find a way to conquer Tibet, but our time must be advanced, move quickly, our time is running out, we must race with Kublai Khan."

"On the side of the imperial court, we don't have any extravagant hopes, I dare to conclude that no one in the court will think of taking the initiative to attack, some are just calculations between each other, just deceit, just stealing peace, the battle of Huaibei is the best example, the army led by Xia Gui, full of 50,000 people, did not carry out any fighting, when the Mongolian army came to fight, they fled, but their internal calculations were very good, almost reached the point of reaching the peak."

"Yuan Shichun, order Luo Sulin to spare no effort to collect information about Chengdu Mansion, from the official residence of the military and horse envoys, down to the ordinary people, as long as it is something he knows, report it all."

"Cai Siwei, the imperial army in Hezhou has stepped up training, from now on, the army will begin to adjust, and the sergeants stationed in Hezhou will be reduced to 5,000 people, including 1,000 cavalry, and the rest of the sergeants will gather in Tongchuan and Luzhou to make all preparations."

"Mr. Huang, please worry about many matters such as military salaries and local expenses."

"We can't wait for the autumn harvest season, the Mongolian court set up a privy council this time, it will definitely cause some discussions, and even secretly compete, Liu Yuanzhen, the military horse envoy on Chengdu Fulu, may not be able to sit still, there may be some moves."

"My hunch tells me that soon, the opportunity will come soon." (To be continued.) )
