Shang Jia directly found the county government and asked to see Su Tiancheng.

After a period of time, the businessman was in Jiangning County, and was taken care of by the county government, and the business was doing very well, and he also knew Su Tiancheng's identity, and he also knew that the letter passed by Lu Dao for Huang Zaisheng was not ordinary, of course, in the face of vested interests, he did his best to deliver the letter to Huang Zaisheng.

Because of doing business in Jiangning County, it is much more convenient to pass on letters, and the family members and subordinates of the merchant often travel between Jiangning County and Shanhaiguan, and can bring letters at any time.

Su Tiancheng did not give Huang Zaisheng a word.

After Su Tiancheng got the letter, he chuckled in his heart.

According to the agreement, if there is one black dot on the cover of the letter, it means general intelligence, if it has two black dots, it means important information, and if it has three black dots, it means urgent military information.

Without the slightest delay, he quickly entered the secret room of the county office.

After opening the letter and reading it carefully, Su Tiancheng's hands trembled a little.

All along, he felt that the situation was still good, the Jiangning battalion could train with peace of mind, he had already contacted Song Sijun and Wan Chenggui, the two were willing to tie up with the Jiangning battalion, and the two also mobilized several big businessmen, they all understood that opportunities and dangers coexist, the greater the danger, the greater the pay, and the greater the gain.

The grain production is very good, and seeing that this year is about to get another bumper harvest, the county government is ready to purchase 1.5 million stone of grain, of which 1 million stone will be handed over to Jiangning Ying.

Yan Zizhang, Zheng Keyou, Lan Qiaozheng and others slowly became familiar with the affairs of the county government, after all, they were officials of the imperial court. With a solid foundation, I will leave Jiangning County, and I will not have to worry about the future development of Jiangning County.

The Zhongxing Society has achieved good results, and the Donglin Academy and the Fushe Society are already completely silent, and there is almost no sound left. Superior to the influence of Liu Zongzhou and Huang Daozhou, there are already some scholars from Donglin Academy and the Restoration Society, who slowly began to join the Society.

Such a good foundation, if it can be maintained for a longer period of time, will definitely have a significant impact.

Su Tiancheng didn't want to shed too much blood, and changing some conditions in society would definitely have to pay a price, but this price should not be too great. After the crossing, Su Tiancheng's mind has changed a lot.

Some literati or historians say lightly that historical progress is inevitable, that the decline and fall of dynasties is normal, and that as long as social progress can be guaranteed, all the costs are worth it. This posture of standing and talking without backache is this kind of lofty summary. On the surface, he showed that he was high and knowledgeable, which Su Tiancheng hated the most.

According to these people. What kind of characters like Wen Tianxiang and Yue Fei are national heroes, the dynasty is corrupt, just let the family overthrow it, the alien invasion is not a big deal. People have brought civilization.

Of course, Su Tiancheng will not be fooled, and the reform he thinks of is to carry out reform through cultural infiltration, which is the so-called peaceful evolution. Through the minimum cost, to achieve the purpose of social development.

The Ming Dynasty faced too many dangers, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will become useless with the fall of this dynasty.

Huang Zaisheng's letter and the news that came out made Su Tiancheng smell danger.

Houjin has already assembled an army and set off, the scale is very large, their purpose is not only to unify Monan, but now it is the time when the green and yellow are not connected, they may have to enter the Xuanfu and Datong areas, because they asked Huang Zaisheng to provide Xuanfu, the Datong area, and the surrounding situation.

Huang Zaisheng estimated that the time when the Later Jin army might invade the Datong area of Xuanfu should be between the end of June and the beginning of July.

At this point in time, it's too sensitive.

The campaign reached a critical moment, and the main energy of the emperor and the court was concentrated in Shaanxi, and the scale of this expedition was very large, and there were many soldiers dispatched, and the expenditure of money and food was huge, and it seemed that victory might be achieved.

At this time, Houjin was ready to invade.

Didn't that hit the waist and eye?

Su Tiancheng felt that the time selected by the Houjin was by no means simple, it can be said that the imperial court dispatched the army to exterminate the Liukou, they must know the Tao, since the Ming Dynasty was the opponent, the civil strife of the Ming Dynasty was their best opportunity, seeing that the Ming Dynasty did its best to exterminate the Liukou, they could sit idly by, at such a time, lead the troops to attack, attack the border of the Ming Dynasty, can cause a lot of panic, do not make it good, the imperial court will draw troops, to meet the Eight Banners Army of Houjin, Naturally, the pressure on the rogue decreased.

What's more, the locations selected by Liukou are Xuanfu in Beizhili and Datong in Shanxi.

Xuanfu is close to Yingtianfu, if the three guards of Xuanfu (Wanquanwei, Longmen Guard, Huai'anwei) are broken through, Houjin can drive straight into Beijing and go straight to Beijing, at this time, the imperial court must mobilize other troops to enter Beijing to guard.

Su Tiancheng opened the map, spread it on the table, and began to look at it carefully.

Houjin is nominally a western expedition to Chahar, there is no need at all, to attack Xuanfu and Datong, the route of their attack, it is impossible to choose to pass through Xuanfu and Datong, the only possibility is that after they conquered Chahar, when they return to the division, they can attack Xuanfu and Datong from Zhangbei and Xingli.

Datong is not far from Shaanxi, and if the Manchurian Eight Banners invade Datong Mansion and Shaanxi, they will definitely be able to know the news.

Houjin's move can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

While unifying Monan Mongolia and strengthening its own strength, it invaded Xuanfu and Datong, grabbed money and people, and plunged the imperial court into a panic.

The Eight Banners of Houjin Manchuria, it is impossible to have contact with the Liukou, but to a certain extent, the Liukou is their internal response, is their ally, as long as the Liukou continue to make chaos in the interior of the Ming Dynasty, they have this ample opportunity, invade the Ming Dynasty at any time, and when the opportunity is ripe, launch a decisive attack on the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty was limited to civil strife, so it could not develop, and it would have to decay even more.

After reading the map, Su Tiancheng was silent.

What is the strength of Houjin, he doesn't know, what generals Houjin has, how many sergeants, what advisers, he doesn't know what to do, this is a huge defect, and it is a defect that is difficult to make up for the time being, this situation, in a short period of time, can not be changed, if you want to really grasp the situation, only to go to the north, and Manchuria Eight Banners Army, there is such an opportunity, thousands of miles away, thinking about the situation of the people of Zhilu Dao, that is wishful thinking.

The army of the Ming Dynasty can be regarded as mentally retarded in terms of mastering the enemy's situation, including intelligence work, which has a great relationship with those so-called righteous and awe-inspiring commanders at all levels, the Ming Dynasty is a literati who lead troops to fight, these literati, educated by Confucianism, do things in a dignified manner, disdain to do intelligence work, think that this is a work of the next three indiscriminate, moreover, they have always regarded Houjin as a barbarian, obviously unable to beat others, and they still have to belittle others.

With such a mentality, it is no wonder that there are repeated defeats.

The intelligence work of Jinyiwei and Dongchang is doing well, and the leaders of Jinyiwei and Dongchang will not be completely influenced by Confucianism at all, but their intelligence work is focused on officials and gentry, and it is not used in the right place.

Su Tiancheng is not so naïve, a soldier, a trickster, if there is no strategy, no intelligence, he always thinks that if he can face the opponent head-on on the battlefield, he will die a miserable death.

He had already thought about it, if the Jiangning battalion really went to the north to meet the Houjin Manchurian Eight Banners, he would ask Dong Chang to arrange the secret line of Jinyiwei to go deep into the territory of Houjin, spy on intelligence, make trouble in Houjin's heart, and harass Houjin to the greatest extent, so that they could not live in peace.

After leaving the secret room, Su Tiancheng fell into deep thought again.

Such a valuable piece of information should not be played to the imperial court?

In his heart, he really wanted to provide information to the imperial court, but reason told him that he couldn't do this, and if this information really reached Zhu Youzhen's imperial case, I am afraid it would cause an uproar.

Not to mention whether the Later Jin will invade the Xuanfu and Datong areas, the key is that the Eight Banners of Manchuria in the Later Jin Dynasty are entering the Mongolian campaign to unify Southern Mongolia, and the next action plan has not been shown for the time being, Huang Zaisheng is in the letter, and it is also estimated that such a situation will appear, and this estimated situation may not attract the attention of the imperial court.

Besides, the imperial court is going all out to exterminate the rogues, at the critical moment, this information has gone up, what will Zhu Youzhen think, what will he think, if the mediocre ministers around him think that this is alarmist and nonsense, his own status will also be threatened, including the fate of Jiang Ningying, may change.

Such information could not be provided to the imperial court.

When Su Tiancheng made this decision, he seemed very painful, but he had no choice, it was the right and rational decision.

If such a situation occurs, the Jiangning camp will definitely attract attention.

He knew that because of the smooth campaign to exterminate the Liukou, Zhu Youzhen was very happy, and also reduced his attention to the Jiangning battalion, and the ministers of the imperial court also had this opinion, since the army of the guard could exterminate the Liukou, then there was no need for the Jiangning battalion to take action, the Jiangning battalion had made a lot of military exploits before, and there may also be an element of luck.

After thinking for a long time, Su Tiancheng found the businessman who sent the letter and told him directly that he asked Huang Zaisheng to provide all the information he knew continuously during this time. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
