The intelligence in Burihatu's hands was not that much, but since his repeated defeats in the last Monan War, he had stepped up his intelligence collection on the Ming Dynasty after becoming Tumen Khan's de facto "strategist."
Although the national policy of the Ming Dynasty is "Eastern Control" and the blockade of Chahar is relatively strict, there is no airtight wall in the world, not to mention that the blockade of the Ming Dynasty is only a material blockade and can barely be seen. News
I can't say much about the blockade. Let alone a wall, it's at most a fence.
Let's not talk about the news obtained from other channels. At least there is one type of news that Burihatu can obtain with little effort, and that is the Ming court's Di Bao.
The Di Bao has been described in detail in this book, so I won’t go into details here. In short, how to write the following memorials, and what to say in Zhu’s comments above, they are all clear and clear, and every word is recorded clearly. They do not exist at all.
Issues such as false information and misunderstanding.
Because the Di newspaper itself is written for officials all over the world, especially civil servants who like to meddle in other people's business - who dares to make fun of this group of civil servants who have the power of public opinion? Even the emperor would not dare to do this, unless Zhu Yijun wanted to stop it
Various "Public Security Manuals" weighing hundreds of kilograms were pointed at and scolded by civil servants, "It's been a long time since the people of the world have been disrespectful to Your Majesty."
Therefore, although the Di newspaper will not analyze why Gao Pragmatic took down Li Rugui, the fact that he took down Li Rugui itself is clearly "recorded". Burihatu is not blind, how could he not?
Do you know? Even the Chahar Ministry can easily get this kind of newspaper that is popular all over the world, so how can it be fake?
Therefore, when Burihatu said this, Tumen Khan knew that this matter could not be wrong, and Gao Pragmatic really locked up Li Chengliang's nephew as soon as he took office.
However, Tumen Khan, who had just sat up straight, was immediately confused again. He frowned deeply and thought about it for a while, but still couldn't figure it out. He had to ask the military adviser and asked: "But I really can't think of it."
Understand, Gao Jingshi has nothing to do with Li Chengliang. Our previous details also said that Li Chengliang took a group of cronies from Guangning to Ningyuan to greet Gao Jingshi... This damn thing is almost considered a welcome to the world! Later, because of Li Chengliang
He was bragging outside, and we also found out that he and Gao Jingshi were brothers... If that's the case, why did Gao Jingshi turn his back on him as soon as he arrived in Gaizhou?"
Before Tumen Khan finished asking his questions, he paused and continued: "Also, I didn't understand Gao Pragmatic's move to seize Li Rugui... Then Li Rugui was just a commander of the Fuzhou Guard.
What is the use of this fart guard? How many soldiers can fight? Is it worth Gao Pragmatic's breakup with Li Chengliang over this? Since his going to Liaodong is a precursor to the Ming Dynasty's plan to launch an all-out offensive against Ben Khan, then as soon as he arrives in Liaodong
I offended Li Chengliang, the most capable person in Liaodong, what kind of method is this?"
He frowned deeply: "You can't say that because he was so pragmatic and luckily won the battle with Tumut, he thought he was better than Li Chengliang, right? Damn it, if it weren't for those traitors in Tumut, just because of him
Can the few cavalrymen under my command and the few cavalrymen left by Ma Lanxi in Xuanda win that battle? Damn it!"
Tumen asked a series of questions, but in the final analysis it was Gao Pragmatic's strange operation that he couldn't understand.
However, Burihatu was not a god, and he was also unaware of Zhu Yijun's suspicion of Li Chengliang, so his inference was also biased.
Burihatu pondered and said: "The Han people like internal fighting the most. I think that since this matter cannot be explained from the situation, it must have an internal cause. This internal cause...I think it can only be a factional issue.
"
"A factional issue?" Tumen thought thoughtfully.
The Mongolian factional problem is actually more serious - Tumut itself can be regarded as one of the Mongolian factions.
Burihatu said: "According to my intensive research during this period, there are now two strongest factions in the Ming Dynasty. One is headed by the highly pragmatic uncle and chief assistant Zhang Siwei, which is called the Shi School, also known as the Practical School.
Gao Dang; one side is headed by Ci Fu Shen Shi Xing, which is called the Heart School. Their governing philosophies are very different, so although they usually seem to be in harmony, in private they wish for the death of the other party's people.
That’s fine.”
"Wait a minute." Tumen frowned and said, "Why is the faction headed by Zhang Siwei called the Gao Party? What does Gao mean? Gao is pragmatic?"
"It's not Gao who is pragmatic, but Gao who is Gao Gong." Burihatu explained: "This faction was initially brought together by Gao Gong. Later Gao Gong died. A few years ago, it was formed by Gao Gong's old friends.
, the highly pragmatic teacher Guo Pu was in charge, and after Guo Pu became an official, it was transferred to Zhang Siwei."
"Oh...I see." Tumen Khan nodded and said, "Then Gao Pragmatic is the Huang Taiji of this sect."
Burihatu also nodded: "It's roughly the same."
Tumen asked again: "So, Li Chengliang is from the mind school?"
Burihatu smiled: "He is a military general, what kind of bullshit school can he have? However, judging from Gao's pragmatic behavior, Li Chengliang is probably closer to the Heart School."
But Tumen frowned: "It's still not right. Since the Heart School is close to Li Chengliang, and they are one of the two major factions that stand side by side with the Shi School, then if Gao Pragmatic Suo takes Li Rugui, wouldn't he be beaten?
What is the face of the Xin School? If the Xin School wants to continue to gain a foothold in the court, why should they retaliate immediately? Why is there no movement at all now?"
But Burihatu laughed and said: "What the Great Khan said is absolutely true. There is a saying among the Han people that it depends on the owner to beat a dog. If Gao Pragmatic Suo takes Li Rugui, indirectly speaking, he has cut the heart of the school.
Face, so the Xin School must take action... No, didn't Li Chengliang allocate the troops on both wings of Liaodong to only defensive strength?"
Because of the analysis just now, Tumen Khan understood everything this time and suddenly realized: "You are saying that the 'move' of the Xin School is to let Li Chengliang deliberately reveal such a big flaw so that Ben Khan can take the opportunity to enter.
, go and kill the little bastard Gao Pragmatic? Hey, Ben Khan seems to have heard of this strategy at some point...what is it called?"
Burihatu chuckled: "Great Khan, this strategy is called killing with a borrowed knife."
"Ah, yes, yes, that's the sentence, kill with a borrowed knife!" Tumen Khan slapped his forehead and sighed: "Damn it, don't tell me, now I think about it, these Han people's books are not all
Trash, at least these military strategies seem to make sense... Just like killing someone with a borrowed knife, this is such a damn clever strategy!"
Burihatu nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and was about to advise the Tutu people to read some Han Chinese books in their free time. Who knew that the Tutu people would say something else next: "However, Li Chengliang wants to borrow Ben Khan's sword, so he has to give it to him."
Money, if he has no money, it is not impossible to talk about using cattle, sheep, and grain to make up the amount..."
Burihatu's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he could hardly hold back a sentence: "Great Khan, he has already paid, but the money is in Liaonan. What he meant was that we should get it ourselves."
"Oh?" Tumen was stunned for a moment, then he realized and slapped his thigh: "That's right, that's right!"
Then he stood up and turned around a few times before making a final decision: "Okay, for the sake of Ben Khan peeing on his ancestral grave, I helped Ben Khan... However, we are in difficulty this year after all.
Don't send too many soldiers in Chahar's headquarters. Take ten thousand cavalry and call in fried flowers to go to Liaonan to grab the damn ones! Hey, what kind of strong soldiers are there in Liaonan? In the sixth year of Wanli,
If Li Chengliang hadn't personally taken action, I would have even captured Yaozhou City."
Regardless of Tumen's bragging, Burihatu just nodded and smiled.
