  Chapter 2608 Guizi scrolls each think of their own way, each with a ruthless move

"Khan, Beijing Central has made a lot of efforts, including "Today's News", "Northern Daily" and "Jiangnan Times" in Nanjing. It aroused some repercussions. It is said that there was a debate within the cabinet of the Great Zhou because of Feng Keng's Liaodong strategy, which was considered to be too costly, and he sold the entire Liaodong to businessmen. There were also discussions within the Great Zhou court,... "

  Abai and Netu made a special trip back to Liaodong to report the situation, leaving the old sixth Tabai in Dazhou.

  Nurhachi sent both his sons, Abai and Tabai, into the territory of Dazhou, which also shows how much he attaches importance to collecting internal intelligence of Dazhou.

   Abai was mediocre at first, but after going to Dazhou for several years to be in charge of intelligence collection with Natu, his performance is getting better and better, and he has been able to come up with some of his own opinions and opinions.

Although many ideas and views are not necessarily mature, and they cannot be compared with Netu, but Nurhachi knows how his son's material is. The third child has performed much better than before, and even greatly exceeded Nurhachi's expectations, so he Only then will the old Liu Tabai be sent to sneak into Dazhou again.

Tabai and Abai are both descendants of concubines. The Zhaojia family and the Niu Gulu family have already fallen out of favor, but after all, they are their own heirs. Nurhachi also hopes that the other party can perform better. There is also a better explanation for the nobles.

Tabai's situation is similar to his own Abai's. They are mediocre and do nothing in the tribe. They are not as smart as Daishan and Huang Taiji, nor as brave as Chu Ying, Mang Gurtai, and Abatai. So Nurhachi has never been very fond of him.

Now seeing that Abai went to Dazhou and trained with Natu after this year, the situation has changed a lot. Nurhachi also handed Tabai over to Natu and asked him to teach Tabai as well as Abai. It can be regarded as some experience.

It's just that I didn't expect that Tabai had only been there for less than a year, and the situation here has reversed, and the intelligence collection on Dazhou's side has become more and more important. This time, Netu and Abai were called back together. Qi Qi listened to the information held by Natu and Abai in person, so that he could make a judgment on the future war arrangements.

  Natu made a report on all aspects of information obtained in Beijing, especially felt that the Great Khan seemed to attach great importance to the debates within the Great Zhou cabinet and explained it in great detail.

"As far as I know, there are some disputes within the cabinet of the Great Zhou Dynasty over the extension of the Liaodong War to this day, but Feng Keng is a disciple of the chief assistant Qi Yongtai and the cabinet official Ying Zhen, and these two of the six cabinet ministers must support it. Feng Keng's, and the second assistant Gu Bingqian has a fairly close relationship with the chief assistant Qi Yongtai at present, so it is impossible to object. The most prominent conflicts with Qi Yongtai are mainly Li Sancai, who ranks third among the cabinet ministers, and Li Sancai, who is at the bottom. Tang Binyin, these two people are very dissatisfied with Qi and Gu. Li Sancai probably has a lot of opinions because he failed to become the second assistant, and Tang Binyin is because he originally belonged to the Wantong Emperor family and has always been a relatively unpopular character. , so now the two join forces,..."

   Some things Nurhachi already knew, some things Nurhachi knew roughly, and some things were newly brought back.

"Although Li Sancai ranks third in the Great Zhou cabinet, he has deep qualifications, second only to Qi Yongtai, so he dares to compete with Gu Bingqian for the second assistant position. In addition, he is in charge of military affairs in the Great Zhou cabinet, so The right to speak on the Liaodong War is also relatively large. Another cabinet minister, Huang Ruliang, was born in the Ministry of Households. He is currently assisting the second assistant Gu Bingqian in managing finances, that is, the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Commerce. He used to support Feng Keng. The war in Hebei is over, but Northern Zhili and Henan will suffer a lot due to the Bailian Rebellion, including Shandong, so they urgently need relief and investment in the construction of roads and water conservancy facilities. Attitudes have changed,…”

  Netu's introduction is very detailed, it can be seen that he has worked hard in this area, and he is also very familiar with various relationships within the cabinet.

   "Natu, are you saying that Huang Ruliang has a great say in wealth?"

  War is fighting for money and food, and Nurhachi is very aware of this. If Feng Keng does not get the strong support of money and food from the Great Zhou court, he will not be able to persevere, and he may change his course.

"It's very big. Huang Ruliang is the direct descendant of Ye Xianggao, the former chief assistant, and both of them are from the Fujian Township Party. They have a very close relationship. Ye Xianggao also strongly pushed Huang Ruliang to join the cabinet. It is rumored that because Qi Yongtai is old, this year's It will come down when it is full, if Gu Bingqian takes over as the first assistant, Huang Ruliang may take over as the second assistant."

  Natu spent a lot of money in Beijing. He has made friends with some officials in the Seven Departments of Beijing and even the Metropolitan Procuratorate, including some Wu Xun's children and clan relatives, so he knows a lot of information.

   "That is to say, if Huang Ruliang felt that the Liaodong war took too long and cost too much, he might have to urge this side to end the war earlier?" Nurhachi asked again.

Hearing the meaning of Da Khan's words, Netu became cautious: "Khan, it's hard to say. First, Huang Ruliang had always supported Feng Keng, and the relationship between the two is said to be very close. Second, Feng Keng came to Liaodong to fight. It is said that they also received the full support of the merchants. The merchants contributed a lot, which is why Feng Keng handed over many things such as land and ginseng mining rights to the merchants, so it is not entirely dependent on the support of the imperial household department,..."

Nurhachi shook his head slightly: "It is certain that the merchants gave Feng Keng a lot of support, but they mainly focused on the construction of docks, roads and workshops, and did not directly give Feng Keng money, food and soldiers. The businessman will not be allowed to directly give Feng Keng money, food and soldiers, so Feng Keng will not make such a mistake, otherwise the Great Zhou Metropolitan Procuratorate should impeach Feng Keng."

  Natu suddenly realized, and nodded again and again: "Khan is right, this is a forbidden act, Feng Keng is a student of Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen, he will not understand this, and he will not make such a mistake."

"So once the attitude of the Great Zhou court changes, it will definitely bring some pressure to Feng Keng." Nurhachi stroked his beard and nodded, "If Feng Keng is smart, he should look for opportunities to change, and from now on they and our troops In comparison, we actually only have 60,000 troops on the northern front, of which 20,000 are recruits, but in the Great Zhou Army, there are 80,000 troops in Liaodong Town alone, and the 20,000 reinforcements from Ganning Town have already Taking advantage of us, they are not afraid to fight us, but he feels that this kind of war of attrition is safer and less risky."

   "What Khan means is to use various means and strategies to force him to change his strategy and fight us?" Natu probably understood what Nurhachi meant.

"It's not just coercion. What you did in Dazhou Jingzhong is coercion. The signal I asked Chu Ying to send here is temptation. In addition, the Dazhou army itself is superior to us, and Liu Dongyang is indeed A veteran veteran who is used to battles and battles, even if the U.S. and European Chu Ying is in it, he has a great chance of winning against us. In this case, I don't believe Feng Keng can bear it. "

Nurhachi clasped his hands tightly together, his eyes looked into the distance like a vulture looking at its prey, the coldness mixed with a bit of cruelty, "I want to give him enough confidence to make him feel that he can solve my Jianzhou in a single battle. The elite main force, being able to make meritorious service in one battle, will make his official career brighter and loftier,..."

  Natu nana said: "Khan,..."

Nurhachi didn't say much, just waved his hands, and turned his eyes back to Abai who had been silent all this time: "Third son, Natu just said it, what do you have to add? Besides, what I said just now, you think how?"

Abai hesitated for a moment, seeing his father's serious and deep eyes, he didn't allow himself to shirk, he thought for a while and said: "Liu Dongyang is a veteran general, Feng Keng is a general, and the battle between them is also for us to win in Jianzhou. I left Anlezhou, but I suffered a lot in Tielingwei, and I have shown enough patience and tenacity over the past year. My father Khan intends to force him to fight us, and my son is worried that he may not be willing to take advantage of it. The court of the Great Zhou alone Maybe he can handle that little pressure, or at least survive this year? As for the big brother as a bait, I am worried that the other party will believe it? Will it be self-defeating?"

Based on these points raised by Abai alone, Nurhachi was very happy. No matter whether Abai was seen as suspicious or cautious by others, Nurhachi was satisfied that his son's mind was already quite careful and meticulous, and he was able to think about problems. It is no longer as simple as before, but it is good to be able to sort out one by one, and it is not in vain to hand him over to Natu to polish it.

"Abai, you are right, but the situation is so harsh that we have to take this step. If we have to fight him, how do you think we can let him get rid of his suspicions and fight us boldly? will fight, and at the same time, shall we win this battle?"

  This question is beyond the scope of comparing Abai, and even Natu and Abai are a little surprised.

It stands to reason that this question should be asked to Daishan or Huang Taiji. Both Netu and Abai knew that these two were the successors in the mind of the Great Khan, and Abai himself never expected to be better than his second brother and eighth brother. Fight for sweat.

But since Father Khan asked him, Abai naturally couldn't say that he couldn't answer, or that he didn't have an answer. For a long time, Abai is not a person without ideas. Even if he can't succeed the Great Khan in the future, at least he canonize a leader of the Baylor Banner who can rule, and he still has to fight for it.
