"Report, Great Khan, the latest news from the Ming Kingdom."

Several horsemen galloped to the front of the army, and after a spy jumped off his horse, he rushed to Huang Taiji and knelt down in front of him, and presented a letter with both hands.

A personal soldier stepped forward to take it, and then handed it to Huang Taiji.

Sitting on horseback, dark-skinned, short and fat Huang Taiji unfolded casually, Gujing Wubo's face was flooded with waves, and his brows were furrowed, and the joy of just pacifying the Mongolian left wing instantly faded mostly.

Because there is no good news on the information in this letter.

"The Ming Kingdom and the Chahar Department formed an alliance, and the eight Jin merchants were destroyed? The spies who infiltrated the Ming Kingdom suffered heavy losses......"

The Ming Kingdom and the Chahar Department formed an alliance, and Huang Taiji didn't care very much, because it was not unexpected.

The eight families of the Jin merchants were uprooted, but it made him very painful, he did not pity the lives of those dog slaves, but without the help of those dog slaves, Dajin's channels for obtaining important materials from the Ming Kingdom would inevitably be greatly affected in the future.

There are also spies sent to the Ming Kingdom, because they have close ties with the eight Jin merchants, so they have also been greatly affected this time and suffered heavy losses.

In the future, the difficulty and danger of spies entering and leaving the Ming Kingdom will also increase dramatically, so this time the spies who returned by sea suffered losses again, which is really worse.

This time alone, the intelligence layout that has been carried out in the hinterland of the Ming Kingdom since the beginning of the first Khan has already lost most of it, how can this not be painful?

However, these news made Huang Taiji even more vigilant about the changes in the situation in the Ming court, and he had already learned that Emperor Tianqi's nurse hanged herself in fear of crime, King Fu was sentenced for attempted rebellion, and Emperor Tianqi ordered the rectification of the Beijing camp and the establishment of the Engineering Institute.

These news seemed to be a lot of movement, but he didn't care too much, just because the carpenter emperor wanted to play some novel tricks, except for the rectification of the Beijing camp, the others had almost no impact on Dajin.

But the erosion of the Ming Guojing camp is known to the whole world, how can it be so easy to rectify?

But this time, the affairs of the eight Jin merchants were very different, because the eight Jin merchants were deeply connected with the elites of the Beijing Division, including the eunuchs.

How could these people take the initiative to cut down these cash cows? Even if you have a heart, it can't be that there are no rumors and signs at all.

As long as there is a slight movement, it is impossible for the eight Jin merchants to be ignorant, and then they will be trapped in the castle without any resistance and all destroyed.

Obviously, this was a careful premeditation, and the eunuch party played an extremely important role in it, because Dongchang, as well as the Xuanfu chief soldier Heiyunlong, were directly involved, and they all belonged to the eunuch party.

But why did the eunuch party suddenly get rid of the eight Jin merchants? And he also brought a brocade guard.

"Jinyiwei, Dongchang, Eunuch, Keshi, Li Banghua, Sun Chengzong, Yuan Keli......"

One organization after another in the Ming Kingdom, a personal name quickly appeared in Huang Taiji's mind.

At this moment, he finally confirmed the fact: the apocalypse has really changed.

It was not without rumors before, when Wu Biao left Jinyiwei and returned Jinyiwei to Luo Sigong, there were rumors that Tianqi no longer trusted Wei Zhongxian.

Then after the Hakka family hanged themselves in fear of crime, there were even more rumors that the Apocalypse would deal with the eunuchs, and even confined Wei Zhongxian to his home for a month.

However, these rumors were self-defeating after Dongchang and Henan Governor Guo Zengguang cracked the incident of King Fu's rebellion, because both Dongchang and Guo Zengguang belonged to the eunuch party.

Apocalypse handed over such an important task to the eunuch party, and he did not unload the mill and kill the donkey afterwards, indicating that the apocalypse did not want to deal with the eunuch party.

It is precisely because of this that Huang Taiji judged that the Ming Dynasty had not changed much, and it was still the eunuch party in charge, so he didn't care too much, so it led to such serious consequences today.

Huang Taiji really regretted it, because he felt that the impact of this incident was no less than the defeat in the Battle of Ningjin last year.

Since the beginning of this year, he has led the army to conquer the left wing of Mongolia several times, in order to open up the road from Mongolia to the Ming Kingdom and prepare for a detour through Mongolia into the hinterland of the Ming Kingdom.

Although the Ming army was often defeated by the Dajin army, the long-distance expedition to the hinterland of the Ming country was still full of various variables, which should not be taken lightly and needed to be fully prepared, of which intelligence was a very important part.

But now, it was not easy to pacify the Mongolian left flank and open the way, but the intelligence agencies suffered a heavy blow.

He would rather have some trouble here in the Mongolian left wing than have an accident in the eight Jin merchants, because no matter how powerful the Mongolian left wing is, sooner or later it will be a lamb to be slaughtered in the hands of Dajin.

And now if you want to cultivate such an internal response as the eight Jin merchants in the Ming Kingdom, it will be too difficult, and the Apocalypse will not give such an opportunity.

If the defeat in the Battle of Ningjin is excusable, after all, the defense line of Guanningjin is indeed very strong, and Yuan Chonghuan is also a rare general.

But this time it was really careless, and it was too smooth before, and there was not enough vigilance.

Now that it has happened, it is useless to regret it.

"Has the apocalypse really changed? Is it really not the original carpenter emperor anymore? ”

Huang Taiji is still a little unbelievable, how can a person say that he can change, and he has changed so much.

He no longer had the heart to stay on the Mongol left flank, leaving 5,000 men to continue sweeping away the small remnants of the Mongol left flank, while he himself led a large army to escort back a large number of plundered people, livestock, and property.

After half a month's trek, the harvested army returned to Shenyang, and the banners happily began to share the spoils, while Huang Taiji was obviously not interested.

Along the way, he thought a lot, and felt that he had to re-examine the hairy boy of the Apocalypse, and he also had to face the opponent of Mingguo again.

He quickly found Li Yongfang and asked, "Do you know the news from the Ming Kingdom?" ”

Kneeling below, Li Yongfang said with regret in his obedience: "Back to the Great Khan, the servants have learned from the spies that the eight Jin merchants are gone, and the spies we sent have also suffered a lot of losses. ”

After all, the intelligence leader of Jianyu is him Li Yongfang, and those Jianyu spies of Daming are also arranged by him.

"In that case, do you have a solution? Ben Khan needed to be aware of the movements of the Ming court in a timely manner. ”

Li Yongfang hurriedly said: "Back to the Great Khan, these days the slaves have thought of a strategy to hide from the sky and cross the sea and secretly cross Chen Cang. ”

Huang Taiji heard his heart move, and then said lightly: "Oh? Let's hear it. ”

Li Yongfang didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly told the countermeasures he had come up with with after racking his brains for the past few days.

He is so flattering, in addition to being a slave and getting used to it (the first Ming general to surrender Jianyu), because since Nurhachi's son-in-law Liu Aita (Liu Xingzuo) abandoned the secret and surrendered to the light, Nurhachi is very distrustful of Hanchen, especially people with many eyes like him.

Therefore, his life here is getting more and more difficult, and those Baylors have a slight disadvantage, they will shout and scold him, and shout and kill him.

Gradually, he became mute, and he no longer dared to express his political opinions easily, and went with the flow.

Although the situation improved after Huang Taiji took office, he still did not gain enough trust, and he knew very well that in this group of barbarians, once he was not trusted, his safety could not be guaranteed.

Therefore, as long as he has the opportunity, he will show his value as much as possible, and the greater the use value, the more it can be reused, and the safer it will be.

This is the survival of all lackey minions.
