Tan Tai and Jia Jihan hurried towards Chongzheng Hall, and the latest information they received must be reported quickly.

The intelligence network in charge is very special. Fan Wencheng was able to see Huang Taiji and Haoge at any time, which was related to his own status, but it also had a lot to do with the intelligence network in charge. Now, Tan Tai can also see Huang Taiji and Haoge at any time, and with Jia Jihan, it is also a need for reporting.

Tan Tai was born in Zhenglan Banner, and Haoge was his master. According to Huang Taiji's request, generally speaking, if he had information, he first reported it to Haoge. If it was a serious matter, he would go to Chongzheng Hall to discuss it. But this time, Tan Tai went directly to Chongzheng Hall and brought Jia Jihan with him. Obviously, intelligence is very important.

After reading the information, Huang Taiji had no expression on his face. Haoge was a little anxious. He didn't know what he thought of, and his face turned pale.

Huang Taiji looked at Jia Jihan and spoke.

"Jia Jihan, what do you think of this information? Don't worry, just say anything you have."

"Emperor, after seeing this information, I have been thinking about why the Ming army suddenly stationed 30,000 soldiers in Xuanzhou. This is very sudden and difficult to understand. I have proposed three possibilities. The first possibility is that the focus of the Ming army's attack is still in the direction of Haizhou. Su Tiancheng wants to concentrate a large number of troops to attack Yaozhou and Haizhou, Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, and other places, so he naturally cannot keep up with it. Mobilizing 30,000 soldiers can completely consolidate the defense."

"The second possibility is that Su Tiancheng's offensive focus shifted to the empty defense of Liaodong, Gaizhou, Fuzhou and Xuanzhou. He mobilized 30,000 troops to strengthen defense to avoid the loss of Fuzhou and Xuanzhou. The slaves think this possibility is greater."

"The third possibility is to prevent any problems in North Korea. These 30,000 Ming troops were originally stationed in Pyongyang, North Korea. After withdrawing from Pyongyang, North Korea, they stayed in Dengzhou for a short time, and then went to Xuanzhou. Their mission may be to defend North Korea and consolidate the defenses of Fuzhou and Xuanzhou."

In fact, Huang Taiji and Haoge were both very surprised. The 30,000 troops stationed in Xuanzhou must have a purpose and will not increase for no reason. As for the struggles within the Ming court, Huang Taiji and Haoge could not know it. This is a top secret, so their views on the army stationed in Xuanzhou are still based on the overall deployment of the Ming court.

If the Ming army turned the focus of the offensive to Liaodong, Gaizhou, Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, the defenses of Gaizhou would definitely be weakened. At this time, 30,000 troops were mobilized to enter Xuanzhou, which was obviously a strengthening of defense. But Huang Taiji and Haoge both felt that this was a bit unreasonable. Su Tiancheng was targeted in doing things. If he did this publicly, wouldn’t he directly reveal his own shortcomings?

What Huang Taiji and Haoge were most worried about was the 30,000 Ming troops. It might be targeting the upcoming turmoil in North Korea. If this is the purpose, it means that the intelligence network of the Ming court has also penetrated into the Qing Dynasty. This is a secret that cannot be told for the time being, and it concerns the face of the Qing Dynasty.

After Jia Jihan finished speaking, a smile appeared on Huang Taiji's face. Jia Jihan's analysis once again proved his ability. This made Huang Taiji feel that Jia Jihan is not inferior to Fan Wencheng.

"Jia Jihan, your analysis makes sense. Okay, you and Tan Tai go and do it. If you have any information, report it quickly."

Since Fan Wencheng committed suicide, Huang Taiji made a regulation that personnel in the intelligence network will not participate in the discussion and negotiation of major matters, but only provide intelligence analysis. Huang Taiji is very clear that personnel in the intelligence network control have mastered a lot of things. Once they participate in the discussion of major matters, their power will gradually increase, and problems will arise.

After Tan Tai and Jia Jihan left, Huang Taiji threw the problem to Haoge.

"Haoge, what do you think about this situation?"

"Father, my son, I think you don't have to pay attention to this situation."

"Oh, tell me what you know."

"I think that when 30,000 Ming troops arrived in Xuanzhou, their important responsibilities were to protect Fuzhou and Xuanzhou. If I deployed such a thing, the focus would be to protect Fuzhou, Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou. It is also Su Tiancheng's base camp and a place where Su Tiancheng needs to focus on guard. It was from this aspect that mobilized 30,000 Ming troops to station in Xuanzhou. I noticed that these 30,000 Ming troops were stationed in Dengzhou for a short time, which means that this was Su Tiancheng's arrangement. There must be left-behind Jiangning camp soldiers in Dengzhou and other places. However, in this situation, we should remind Prince Rui in time."

Huang Taiji nodded frequently, thinking that Haoge's analysis was very reasonable.

"Haoge, I am very pleased. It is indeed very good that you have such insights. Since you assisted me in handling the government, you have been able to pay attention to the overall situation. Your analysis is good. It is not a big deal to add 30,000 Ming troops in Xuanzhou. Our deployment does not require much adjustment. It is very necessary to remind Dorgon that the Haizhou direction will not launch an attack for the time being. I have considered it carefully and there is no need to worry."

Tan Tai was very satisfied with Jia Jihan's performance, especially Jia Jihan analyzed that Liaodong was likely to become the key direction of the Ming army's offensive. Huang Taiji adopted such a suggestion and mobilized the army to Liaodong, which shows the importance of intelligence work. Tan Tai, who is in charge of intelligence work, can also be valued.

This time, when 30,000 Ming troops were stationed in Xuanzhou, Tan Tai was panicked at the first time. The army was transferred to Liaodong, and the troops in the Haizhou direction were significantly reduced. If the Ming army continued to launch an attack from Yaozhou and Haizhou, wouldn’t it be a big mistake? However, Jia Jihan was not in a hurry at all and made an analysis. The Ming army increased the garrison in Xuanzhou, which should be to protect Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, and at the same time prevented North Korea’s problems. This Ming army would not take the initiative to attack Haizhou and Yaozhou. The increase of 30,000 Ming troops just shows that the main direction of the Ming army should be Liaodong, otherwise these 30,000 troops should have arrived in Liaodong.

Jia Jihan's analysis was reasonable, and Tan Tai finally felt relieved, but the information had to be reported to Huang Taiji and Haoge in a timely manner. Tan Tai insisted on taking Jia Jihan and asked Jia Jihan to report directly. This was a trusting attitude. Tan Tai knew very well that he could not explain it clearly and could not analyze it.

Tan Tai still has good advantages. Jia Jihan is outstanding in intelligence analysis work. Tan Tai is not jealous at all. Instead, he thinks that this is a great thing. If it were the rest of the people, they might not be able to do it.

When leaving Chongde Hall, Tan Tai found that Huang Taiji and Haoge were not very anxious. He knew it. It seemed that 30,000 Ming troops were stationed in Xuanzhou, which was not a big deal and would not lead to another adjustment of the battle deployment.

The time for rest was up, and Tan Tai made an appointment with Jia Jihan. The two of them found a restaurant outside. Tan Tai invited Jia Jihan to drink. Jia Jihan insisted on treating him, but Tan Tai refused.

Tan Tai picked up the wine glass.

"Jia Jihan, today we are drinking brothers' wine between you and me. Since we did things together, the emperor and the crown prince are very satisfied with all your performances. If you continue to persevere, you will definitely make great contributions."

Jia Jihan showed a flattering look.

"The slave has written down the encouragement of the master. The slave always thinks about serving the emperor, the crown prince and the court. Under the leadership of the master, no matter what achievements he has, he will rely on the attention of the master. When it comes to great merit, it is the master's merit first, and secondly, it is the slave's turn."

Tan Tai smiled and continued to speak.

"Jia Jihan, I don't have much contact with the Han people. In the past, you also know that there were almost no Han people in Zhenglan Banner. I am not a rich man. There are so many slaves in my family. However, I still have some understanding of the Han people. You are smart and wise, analyzing things reasonably, and have many unique insights. Now that we work together, you don't have to think so much, just do things in a solid manner. I don't have so many roundabout ideas, it's one, I will report you truthfully, and I will fight for you in front of the emperor and the crown prince."

Jia Jihan's face turned a little red. He claimed that he had a good understanding of human nature, but all this had no effect in front of Tan Tai. It seems that Tan Tai was the real person who understood. He did not need to have so much thought to do things with such people, and he should not think about shaking his status. The Qing Dynasty was a Manchu Qing Dynasty, not a Han Dynasty. Jia Jihan was very clear about this and always warned himself.

Jia Jihan took the lead in drinking this glass of wine, picked up the wine pot, and added the wine for Tan Tai.

"Don't worry, sir, I remember that sir will do my best to analyze and organize information in the future. When it comes to major matters, sir will report to sir in time and ask sir to decide."

Tan Tai finally smiled on his face. He remembered Haoge's instructions. The Han people were very focused. As superiors, when they interacted with them, they would go straight and use their own power to overwhelm them. This would achieve the best results, no matter how capable the Han people you face.

Tan Tai was happy not only to convince Jia Jihan, but the important thing was that his master Haoge was getting stronger and stronger. To be honest, after Haoge became Huang Taiji, Tan Tai was a little worried. Dorgon and Duoduo's eyeing made Haoge's position not very stable. Now it is different. Duoduo has sacrificed his life. Dorgon's strength is naturally weaker, and the views of the Manchus on Haoge have obviously changed, and Haoge's status has become increasingly stable.

Of course, Haoge also wanted to be promoted. As long as Haoge can successfully inherit the throne, his future will be as brilliant.
