Intelligence can provide a clear picture of the current situation and provide a reliable basis for political decision-making. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Burhan thinks it's time to throw this bombshell, and also to test, how much have these ministers learned through today's lesson?

With just a look, Liu Dingchen understood, and he took out the dense reading of Liaodong to Bohan in the morning:

"The Inner Guard Mansion Liaodong is in a hurry! In the forty-sixth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, April 13. Later, Jin Khan ** Hachi sued the sky with the "Seven Hatreds", and his text said:

My ancestors and fathers did not damage the Ming Bian, and the Ming provoked the border for no reason, harming my grandfather and father, and hating the Yiyi.

Although the Ming provoked, I still wanted to repair it, and set up a monument to swear: 'All Manchurians, Han people, etc., do not cross the territory, dare to have transgression, see it and punish it, see it and indulge, harm the indulgence.'" 'Reciting the oath of recovering Chongqing, the soldiers crossed the line, defended Ye He, and hated Erye.

The Ming people in the south of the Qing River, north of the river bank, every year to steal the frontier, wanton villages, I obey the oath to execute; Ming was responsible for the former alliance, accused me of killing, detained my Guangning envoys Gangguli and Fangjina, took ten people hostage, killed the border, and hated Sanye.

Ming crossed the border to help Yehe with soldiers, so that the daughter I had hired was adapted to Mongolia, and I hated Siye.

Chai River, Sancha, Fu'an three roads, I have been guarding the territory for many generations, ploughing the fields and art valleys, clearly not allowing for harvesting, sending troops to expel them, hating Wuye.

Outside the border, Ye He, who was convicted in the sky, was biased to believe his words, sent envoys, criticized in suicide notes, insulted the mausoleum, and hated Liuye.

Xihada helped Yehe, invaded for the second time, I reported myself, and the heavens gave me the people of Hada, and the party of Ming, and coerced me to return his country. The people of Hada were plundered by Yeh. In this conquest of the kingdoms, those who follow the will of heaven will prevail and survive, and those who go against the will of heaven will be defeated and die. How can we restore the life of those who die in the soldiers, and even more so those who win others? The king of the great country is the co-lord of the world, and he has no resentment against our country. At the beginning, the countries of Hulun joined forces to invade me, so the heavens were tired of Hulun's provocation, but I was a dependent. Today, Ming helps Ye He, who is cursed, resists the will of heaven, inverts right and wrong, dissects in vain, and hates Qiye.

After the oath was completed, he raised troops to attack six places of Liaozhen Township Fort Guard, and all Ding Waner were slaughtered, the Ming court was furious, leap April, Yang Hao was the left squire of the military department and the imperial history of the capital, and passed through Liaodong. ”

After Liu Dingchen finished reading it, whispers sounded again in the hall. If the information just now was somewhat related to the Hechi Ti Ministry, but now this one is far from the same. Even so, people have a lot of discussions, and of course you really discuss what you say. Without exception, they all regard Houjin as a strong contender for the future Hechi Ti Ministry.

Burhan walked down the hall and said, "Whew! The red curtain fell, and a map appeared in front of everyone's eyes, this map is not unfamiliar to everyone, but recently there is another Liaodong and Alatan Khanate, thanks to the spy mapping of the Neiwei Mansion.

Burhan's eyes always converged on the position of Liaodong and said, "Now this Houjin has not had much intersection with my Hechi Ti Division, but what about the future?" The Later Jin was a state formed by the Jurchens, who in turn were the mortal enemies of our Mongols. Since it dares to argue with the Ming Court, it wants to have a good strength. Ben Khan can assert that in the war between the Later Jin and the Ming court, the Ming court will be defeated. At that time, this fertile field in eastern Liaodong will become a place for Jurchens to cultivate and ride horses; a place to thrive; A foundation of abundance and strength. At that time, Jin Mingting's offensive and defensive situation will be changed, what are the consequences? ”

"Then you still need to think about it?" Kali's rough voice sounded without thinking, "Houjin has the advantage of cavalry, and from now on, the Ming Court's hundreds of miles of defense will never be peaceful, and Houjin can directly threaten the heart of the Ming Court!" As she spoke, Kali put her finger heavily on Beijing's position.

It wasn't what Burhan wanted, but it was enough for Kali.

Guo Wei held his chin with his hand, shook his head, and said, "That's not all!" Then he stepped forward and gestured:

"If I were a general of the Ming Dynasty, I would rely on the existing city to fortify Shanhaiguan, Ningyuan, and Jinzhou on the first line, and strengthen the Juyong Pass and Xuanda Line to defend the fort, then even if the Houjin has iron horses, it will not be able to go south. If he secretly supports Lin Dan Khan of Chahar, then he can even directly threaten Houjin Houlu. ”

This is not a lie, but it can be clearly seen on the map. At the same time, he pointed out that "if the Ming court refuses to defend the city with Xiongguan, it will be difficult for the Later Jin Dynasty to threaten the heart of the Ming Court, while the threat of the Mongol tribes can make the Later Jin fall into a place of no return." Therefore, Houjin must first sweep away the five Inner Khalkha tribes and the Korqin tribe, and then concentrate on dealing with Lin Dan Khan. In this way, you can not only remove obstacles but also strengthen yourself, which is the basic strategy of Houjin. ”

Hearing this, Guo Wei secretly said in his heart: It seems that the Great Khan has thoroughly eaten the surrounding situation, could it be... He was worried that Burhan would use troops against Houjin, and with this question, he had to test one or two.

"As the Great Khan said, the Houjin will inevitably become a major obstacle to our Hechiti tribe to unify the steppe, and if our Hechiti tribe annexes the Tushetu Khan department, the Chechen Khan and the forest tribes may take refuge in defense of our ministry or form an alliance with the Houjin. Houjin is such a big threat to my Hechiti tribe, so what is the Great Khan going to do? ”

In Guo Wei's eyes, since ancient times, the achievement of the foundation has always been to obtain the Central Plains, and eastward expansion is the best way out, but the Houjin is in the way of the Hechi Ti Department, all he can do is to try his best to eradicate it, he has never considered developing westward.

In fact, Houjin was never a dish of Burhan. As early as many years ago, Burhan had already set up control, which is why he had tried so hard to facilitate the horse trade with the Ming court over the years? The threat of Houjin will become an opportunity for the Hechiti Department to grow, and the Hechiti Ministry, which is so strong, will also have a big tree to shelter from the wind and rain, and Houjin is a suitable choice.

A long time ago, Burhan had the ambition to compete for the world, and at this moment, Burhan already had a plan in his mind to attack the Ming Dynasty. In his plan, the Later Jin or Manchu Qing would be an important part of it. The more the Manchus showed their covetousness for Guannai, the more fierce the Ming rebellion became. Then the areas where the control of the northwest region is already weak has become a meal on the plate of Burhan. Coupled with the peasant uprising, Burhan could have helped the Ming court to suppress the uprising and occupy it in a grand manner, and even then, the Ming court could only let it go and not devote too much energy to dealing with Burhan. As long as Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu are won, the hegemony will be cast. So his next target is the Western Regions, so he said:

"It will take a few years for the Houjin to develop to the point where it can threaten our Hechiti tribe, and what we have to do at present is to annex the Tushetu Khan tribe as quickly as possible, and then cut off the threat of the central Lin clan of the Chechen Khan tribe as soon as possible, and take advantage of the opportunity of the game between the Houjin and the Ming court to take the Outer Khalkha into the bag, and then lock a shackle on the head of the Houjin, as long as it makes a slight move, I can threaten its back road."

The ministers had to admire Burhan's foresight, and admired that they also had to complete the tasks assigned by Burhan.

"For this reason, Ben Khan decided: all the four cavalry armies were fully organized into service, and the armies stepped up their training and waited for the opportunity."

Although it is only a few short sentences, it also reveals a huge message, that is, the Armageddon, which was originally scheduled for next fall, may be brought forward.

Sure enough, in September of the 48th year of Wanli, when the entire Hechi Ti tribe was still silent in the joy of a great harvest, two unexpected wars changed Burhan's initial thinking.
