Ming politicians

Lu Xiangsheng soon received a letter from Su Tiancheng.

Su Tiancheng thought over and over again about the matter of attacking Taiwan and the Mongolian tribes, and finally gave the emperor some secret documents. In the memorial, Su Tiancheng analyzed the reasons in detail. If he had not entered the cabinet, he would not have written the secret documents. He made it himself. It is enough to make a decision. If the imperial court finds out about this matter, there will be a lot of trouble. Of course, after entering the cabinet, Su Tiancheng can decide many conquest matters on his own, and he does not need to accept the control of the cabinet.

One of the biggest reasons for being able to be so chic is Jiangning Camp. The biggest reason is that Jiangning Camp’s military pay has always been settled by itself. , Supporting the expenditure of the Jiangning camp's military salary, the imperial court also acquiesced in this, and the household department can also get a lot of money from the mutual market and the wharf.As for the frontier army in Liaodong, the Yulin camp, and the army in Datong, Ningxia and other places, they were not so lucky. They needed to get military pay from the Ministry of Households, so they had to fully obey the imperial court's arrangements.

After Lu Xiangsheng received Su Tiancheng's letter, he quickly began to deploy.

The situation in Liaodong has undergone some slight changes, especially after occupying the city of Heishan, the confidence of the soldiers is slowly recovering. In addition, the army stationed in Liaodong is already dominated by the Yulin Camp, which has no direct contact with the rear. When the Golden Tartars fight, they don't have so much fear of the latter Golden Tartars, and they have much more self-confidence.

Time is tight, and it is impossible to keep the relevant deployments completely secret, at least the officials in the governor's office know about it.

After thinking about it, Lu Xiangsheng decided to focus on the defense of Dalinghe City, taking into account Montenegro, followed by Shanhaiguan. Shanhaiguan is determined not to have any mistakes.Even if Dalinghe City is lost, as long as they stick to the Shanhaiguan Pass, the Houjin Tartars are still helpless, and cannot directly enter the pass, threatening the capital.

The related deployment started to be implemented in a very short time.The orders of the governor's yamen continued to reach Shanhaiguan, Jinzhou City, Dalinghe City and Heishan City.

Tang Haitai regained his previous self-confidence.

Tang Haitai was uncomfortable, frightened, and even unable to sleep for a while when he sold the gold tartar behind him.Moreover, the relationship with the officials of the governor's office can also be handled well.

Tang Haitai certainly understands that there is no free lunch in the world. Since Kangtai gave him so much money and helped him pay off his gambling debts, it is unreasonable not to do something himself. If he has information, he must provide it. of.

this time.Tang Haitai is basically with Kangtai, as long as it is free time.The two went to restaurants and brothels in a chic way. The dandy Tang Haitai is a gold-selling cave, and most people can't bear it, but Kangtai doesn't care at all.

The more money he used, the more Tang Haitai felt.Something must be done, otherwise Kangtai will definitely be unhappy, not to mention the post-gold tartar behind Kangtai, they will not give out so much money for no reason.Want to really grasp the information.Then you have to do things honestly, otherwise it is impossible to know anything. After this, Tang Haitai was more focused on doing things than before, and he was able to calm down.

Tang Haitai's change has aroused some curiosity in the governor's office, but this person will change. Maybe Tang Haitai has stepped out of the trough of the previous period and can correctly treat his own situation. That is something that is not clear, everyone. They didn't pay special attention, and everyone was taken care of by Tang Haitai. Sometimes when they went out to eat and drink together, Tang Haitai paid for it, which made everyone feel embarrassed.

In fact, the biggest credit for Tang Haitai's change is Kangtai and Fan Wencheng behind Kangtai.

Fan Wencheng's thinking is quite far-reaching. Tang Haitai took refuge in the Qing Dynasty, and Fan Wencheng did not rush to ask Tang Haitai to provide any useful information. According to all Tang Haitai's experiences, Fan Wencheng also knew that Tang Haitai belonged to the kind of official son who was relatively dandy. For his own career, he is not very concerned. If Tang Haitai wants to play a real role, he must make certain changes, so that he can go to a more important position, or take on more important responsibilities. Jiangshan Yichang's nature It is difficult to move, it is easier said than done to achieve this, but Fan Wencheng did not think about asking Tang Haitai to make a complete change, as long as there are some slight changes.

Kangtai accepted the task.

To say that Kangtai is also very good. He has been doing fur business in Ningcheng City for a long time. Although Houjin provides the source of goods, how to do a good job depends on himself. Kangtai has such an ability to do every He is very focused on these things, so his fur business is the best in Ningyuan City, and this is what Fan Wencheng is most satisfied with.

After Kangtai and Tang Haitai clarified their relationship, they used their own success to guide Tang Haitai slowly. They did not ask Tang Haitai to provide information, but they often used their own shop as an example to illustrate that it is very important to focus on doing things. In the process, we must also pay attention to handling the relationship with competitors, otherwise we will not be able to achieve success and so on.

Tang Haitai is not a rotten wood that cannot be carved, he still understands what Kangtai means, but Tang Haitai did not expect that Kangtai actually cares about his status in the governor's yamen, which somewhat dilutes Tang Haitai's inner resistance.

Tang Haitai refrained from complaining, and began to be honest. No matter what happened, he would stick to the yamen. When he saw that everyone was busy, he would go to help, and when he was not busy, he would chat with everyone. This kind of change is obvious to everyone. In the past half a month, everyone even felt that the governor should have seen Tang Haitai's transformation.

Lu Xiangsheng didn't pay attention to Tang Haitai's changes, and he had a lot of things. After the Golden Tatars withdrew from Montenegro, they still stick to Yizhou. This does not meet Lu Xiangsheng's requirements. The city of Yizhou is only more than [-] miles away from Heishan. The key is Yizhou Belonging to the sphere of influence under the jurisdiction of Montenegro, the post-Gold Tatars continued to be stationed in Yizhou, just like a nail planted within the scope of Montenegro, making the soldiers guarding the city of Montenegro worry all the time.

It's a pity that the imperial decree of the emperor prevented Lu Xiangsheng from acting rashly. In fact, it is very simple to take back Montenegro. As long as the supply channels of Yizhou are completely blocked, and grain, grass and goods are not allowed to be sent from the direction of Guangning and Xipingbao, Yizhou can be completely controlled. State, even without sending a single soldier.

Lu Xiangsheng's idea was also written in the secret book, and it was specially reported to the emperor, but unfortunately there was no instruction from the court, and there was no movement from Su Tiancheng's side.

Just when Lu Xiangsheng was a little puzzled, Su Tiancheng's secret letter arrived.

After reading the secret letter, Lu Xiangsheng was very excited. Unexpectedly, Su Tiancheng was planning to attack the Mongolian grassland. There are three routes to attack the Mongolian grassland. From the direction of Ningxia, he can directly enter the Hetao area and directly lead Xibo The tribes of the Dawu and Daur tribes launched an offensive, and they could also enter the Mongolian grassland from the direction of Datong, and finally entered the Mongolian grassland directly from the direction of Yizhou in Liaodong.

Lu Xiangsheng was not very clear about Su Tiancheng's specific deployment, but there must be a reason for Su Tiancheng's decision to enter the grassland from Liaodong to fight. Liaodong must make corresponding preparations for Su Tiancheng's deployment.

It is already November, and the climate in the grassland has become cold. It is not a very suitable time to launch an expedition, but this time is also the most lazy time for the grassland tribes. Using this time to launch an attack can produce surprise attacks Effect.

The governor's yamen began to get busy, Lu Xiangsheng began to dispatch troops, and the main force began to tilt in the direction of Dalinghe City again, and the forces stationed in Ningyuan City were relatively weakened.

Tang Haitai, who was in the governor's office, discovered such a change. In fact, these orders were conveyed directly by him before, or he arranged for officials in the governor's office to be responsible for conveying them. It's just that Lu Xiangsheng appointed another governor. Tang Haitai couldn't get involved in the matter.

There are many and complicated orders, and the other governor is too busy, so Tang Haitai naturally has to do things.

It can be considered that Tang Haitai is smart. When conveying these orders, he wrote them down carefully. After returning to the house, he quickly recorded them. In a few days, Tang Haitai recorded quite a few orders.

Tang Haitai didn't analyze these orders. After the day was over, he left the governor's office as usual and went to Kangtai's fur shop. Of course, he carried these orders with him.

When handing over these orders to Kangtai, Tang Haitai said lightly that the governor's office has been very busy recently, and the governor has ordered a lot, but he doesn't know the purpose of doing so. Most of the orders have been written down by himself. See if it works.

Kang Tai didn't care either. After Lu Xiang was promoted to Liaodong and took office, he experienced a lot of things, especially the Qing Dynasty sent a mission to exchange Daishan, and then sent a mission to discuss the matter of bowing their heads and proclaiming their ministers, and the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty Withdrew from Montenegro, and Lu Xiangsheng dispatched soldiers to garrison Montenegro. In short, he was very busy.

Kangtai was very happy that Tang Haitai was able to provide this information on his own initiative. After accepting the information, he ordered his servants to go to the restaurant to book a banquet, and then went to have a good meal with Tang Haitai.

As for the information provided by Tang Haitai, special personnel were responsible for hiding it and sending it to Guangning at the worst possible speed, where there were also special personnel responsible for receiving the information.

Kangtai would not have thought that the information provided by Tang Haitai this time caused quite a shock, and this is all for later. (To be continued..)
