Chapter 928: Fan Wencheng's plan

Tang Haitai became a character in the Qing Dynasty intelligence network, which made Fan Wencheng very happy. You should know that Tang Haitai's identity is extraordinary. A civil servant of the sixth rank of the Ming Dynasty, his uncle was once the second auxiliary of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet. Such a person became the intelligence personnel of the Qing Dynasty and had great value in use. Regardless of whether Tang Haitai was a playboy or not, in short, the Qing Dynasty could obtain extraordinary intelligence from Tang Haitai, and the intelligence personnel were slowly developing. Through Tang Haitai, and even through Tang Shiji, he could live more valuable intelligence.

After learning this news, Fan Wencheng did not waste time and asked Kangtai to go directly to Chenyang to report all the situation.

Kang Tai's report made Fan Wencheng very satisfied. Although Tang Haitai was coerced to a certain extent, he finally voluntarily joined the intelligence network, but Fan Wencheng needed to take out some money.

The work of the intelligence network is something that Fan Wencheng attaches great importance to. Many analyses were obtained through intelligence, and most of the judgments were very accurate. Afterwards, it was also shown that such analysis and judgments were very accurate. It was precisely through these judgments and analysis that Fan Wencheng gained the high trust of Huang Taiji.

After carefully sorting out Tang Haitai's situation and making mature thinking, Fan Wencheng decided to report it to Huang Taiji.

In recent times, Huang Taiji's focus has shifted to the matter of making alliances and consolidating the strength of the Qing Dynasty. There will be no end to the negotiations. Even if the negotiation results come out, Huang Taiji will not follow the implementation, but rely on negotiations to delay time. Of course, the reason why Huang Taiji made such a decision was based on his own judgment and many analysis by Fan Wencheng. The Chongzhen Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was full of talent and always wanted to do something, even surpassing the Tang Dynasty and Song Zu. Moreover, Chongzhen liked to drink ** soup. In this case, he gave Chongzhen a good soup and did as many things as possible when Chongzhen was confused.

Huang Taiji concluded that Su Tiancheng would not be fooled and would definitely have made some moves. As for where the direction of the action was, special attention was needed. It is best to be able to grasp these situations through the intelligence network. In this way, the Qing Dynasty could prepare in advance, be able to master the initiative to the greatest extent, and even reveal some intelligence intentionally or unintentionally during the negotiation process to provoke the relationship between Chongzhen and Su Tiancheng.

Huang Taiji will not adopt the matter of sending assassin to assassinate Su Tiancheng for the time being. This matter is too difficult. Not to mention Su Tiancheng's side, with many warriors, even if you want to find a suitable candidate, it will be very difficult.

Fan Wencheng had a smile on his face. Huang Taiji knew that something must have happened.

"Your Majesty, I'm here to report the good news."

"Oh, what's the happy thing? I rarely see Wencheng so happy."

"The Emperor, Tang Haitai, the governor of the Liaodong Governor's Office of the Ming Dynasty, became one of our intelligence personnel in the Qing Dynasty."

Huang Taiji was still clear about the officials of the Ji Liao Governor's Office and the Liaodong Governor's Office. The governor of the Governor's Office was just a sixth-rank official, not a core person. Even if Tang Haitai was willing to seek refuge in the Qing Dynasty, it would be nothing special. The military general who defected to the Qing Dynasty a few years ago was much more prominent than Tang Haitai.

Seeing that Huang Taiji did not show any special interest, Fan Wencheng quickly explained.

"Emperor, this Tang Haitai is different from ordinary people. His uncle is Tang Shiji, the second assistant of the predecessor of the Ming cabinet. Tang Haitai once served as the censor of the Ming Dynasty Capital Inspectorate. He was later transferred to Liaodong. He was highly trusted by the former governor Chen Xinjia and mastered many situations in Liaodong. Because of Tang Shiji's retirement and because Chen Xinjia was defeated, he was held accountable by the Ming court. Tang Haitai lost his support. In addition, he was a little playboy, so he voluntarily became a member of the intelligence network of the Qing Dynasty."

Huang Taiji nodded, still a little depressed. The Qing Dynasty intelligence network has been established for a long time, but unfortunately, it is impossible to absorb the officials of the Ming Dynasty. Most of them are people of all religions and ranks, and it is difficult to obtain truly valuable information. Since the Ming Dynasty began to slowly get out of the trough, the maintenance of the intelligence network has become even more difficult. Fortunately, Fan Wencheng spent a lot of energy.

"Well, this Tang Haitai still has a certain background, but he is a little dandy, and he has lost his support, so he is forced to surrender to our Qing Dynasty. Can such a person have any value?"

"Your Majesty, I have carefully studied Tang Haitai's situation. Tang Haitai still has great value. When Chen Xinjia was the governor of Liaodong, Tang Haitai had an extraordinary identity and established a lot of relationships. He was very familiar with the situation in Liaodong. Although he has lost his support and was neglected, his relationship is still there. In addition, his uncle Tang Shiji has a certain relationship in the capital. As long as I find a way to give Tang Haitai some help, I believe that Tang Haitai will be able to become an important part of the governor's yamen again."

"Oh, you mean to help Tang Haitai so that he can know as much as possible about Liaodong, so that my Qing Dynasty will know the situation in Liaodong."

"The slave is this plan. The slave is not only trying to obtain information from Liaodong, including information from Datong, Yulin and Ningxia, and even the situation in Anningbao and Jingbian. The slave believes that as long as Tang Haitai works hard, it will provide it."

Fan Wencheng said this, Huang Taiji became interested. Huang Taiji still knew some of the characteristics of intelligence work, so he could not be in a hurry and needed to take it slowly. Not to mention the effectiveness of intelligence work, let alone valuable intelligence. Sometimes, valuable intelligence will play an important role.

"It seems that Wen Cheng has been seriously considered. What I need most now is the movements of Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Camp. I must be clear about what Su Tiancheng is going to do next."

"I thought of this. I thought of it. I thought that Su Tiancheng would not be idle and would definitely have some actions. In the past, I worked so hard that I could not know all Su Tiancheng's actions. But with this Tang Haitai, I thought there was hope and I could obtain Su Tiancheng's plan."

Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng and said nothing. Su Tiancheng was far away in Dengzhou, and Jiangning Camp was also distributed in Fuzhou and Xuanzhou. It was still a distance from Liaodong. Tang Haitai, who was in Liaodong, was unlikely to know about these situations.

"Emperor, Su Tiancheng is a cabinet grandson of the Ming Dynasty, but his important position is the governor of Ji Liao. After the last defeat, the new Liaodong Governor Lu Xiangsheng must follow Su Tiancheng's arrangements. The slaves think that Liaodong and Dengzhou are the same game, and Su Tiancheng must take into account the overall situation. In this case, all Su Tiancheng's arrangements will be informed of Lu Xiangsheng. The Governor's yamen will inevitably have some arrangements. Tang Haitai is the governor of the Governor's yamen and is qualified to obtain this information. As long as Tang Haitai works hard, our Qing Dynasty can also obtain this information and make arrangements this morning."

After Fan Wencheng's explanation, Huang Taiji finally knew Fan Wencheng's idea and began to pay attention to Tang Haitai.

"Wen Cheng's analysis is good, but what kind of personality does this Tang Haitai have? Apart from the playboy, can he do something well?"

"The slave has collected a lot of Tang Haitai's situation, please check it out."

Huang Taiji carefully looked at the situation of Tang Haitai compiled by Fan Wencheng, and thought while watching.

Half an hour later, Huang Taiji spoke.

"This Tang Haitai is not enough to make a mistake. If I had such an official, I would have kicked it away long ago. However, because of Tang Haitai's playboy, he could have become an internal supporter of my Qing Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, money can make the devil push the mill. The slave thinks that as long as you provide enough money and let Tang Haitai spy on relevant information, there is no problem. The best way for such a person is to meet his requirements and make him unable to do without money. He firmly controls it. After a long time, Tang Haitai naturally knows how to change it."

"Okay, just do what you said. I want to see if this Tang Haitai can obtain key information."

After leaving Chongzheng Hall, Fan Wencheng breathed a long sigh of relief.

As expected, the changes that occurred in the Qing Dynasty, after Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi committed suicide, they still had a certain impact on the Han army. In addition, the strength of the Jiangning Camp also had an impact on the many Han armies. At least the annihilation of the Zhenghong Banner made the Han army a little scared. Fan Wencheng thought of many ways to maintain the stability of the Han army, and even directly put forward suggestions to govern the Han army and be directly responsible for the Han army generals, not Ajige and others, and all the Han army was incorporated into the Han Eight Banners. These suggestions were directly adopted by Huang Taiji. All the Han army stationed in Guangning and Haizhou were incorporated into the Han Eight Banners. Under such circumstances, the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners always exceeded 100,000, and became a force that should not be underestimated.

The more stable the Han army was in the Qing Dynasty, the Han people would have the right to speak in the Qing Dynasty. Otherwise, they would always serve as a foil and would not be able to control their own destiny. Huang Taiji agreed to exchange Dai Shan with the monk Geng Zhongming. This idea also made Fan Wencheng a little worried. One day, the Ming Dynasty would also want to exchange itself. What should we do? Therefore, the best way is to make the eight banners of the Han people stronger and make Huang Taiji pay more attention to the role of the Han people.
