Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

"The Tartars have never had many troops. When they first entered the customs, Hong Tai led four thousand white armors, several thousand banner men, and several thousand Mongolian soldiers and herdsmen, a total of 2 people. tu>

Jiang Min was unmoved. These days, Fushan's intelligence work on the Qing army has been advancing by leaps and bounds. Of course, it's not because the people in the Military Intelligence Department are powerful enough to sneak into the Qing army camp in large numbers. This work is of course being done, but it is not easy.

The Qing Dynasty always attached great importance to meticulous work and did a lot of solid work.

Huang Taiji even obtained Chongzhen's private evaluation of Hong Chengchou through careful work, and kept it in Shenyang's palace as a confidential file. There are many records of secret work in the old Manchu files. In this regard, the Qing Dynasty Although one side did crudely, fortunately, a group of traitors and traitors were willing to be eagle dogs, so the effect was good.

As for Fushan, it is indeed trying to infiltrate the territory controlled by the Qing side, and it has been recruiting and training manpower... Dengzhou has natural advantages in this regard, and the long coastline is impossible for the Qing army to take care of. It can only be in Lushun Waiting for some important ports to leave some garrison troops, the warships brought by King Sanshun are also very limited, and it is impossible to patrol the entire distance of the coastline.As long as Fushan is willing, it can infiltrate spies and intelligence personnel at any time, but there is still a serious shortage of manpower, and this is fatal. [

Qualified intelligence personnel must establish solid intelligence stations, intelligence points, and then have solid routes for transporting "cargo", as well as retreat routes, covert routes, and so on.

After these are established, we can talk about stable intelligence work.

Intelligence work is not something children take for granted, and intelligence personnel also have to put their own lives first. Meng Lang's actions are not popular in Fushan.

The recent progress in understanding Qing intelligence and actual conditions has benefited from Sun Chengzong.

Old man Sun knew the inside story of the Qing side very well, and of course this also included the actual number of Qing troops.For many people in the Ming Dynasty, even Emperor Chongzhen, I am afraid that they are confused about this aspect.

The main reason is that the Qing army's battles were all straightforward victories, and every time it was a decisive victory.Therefore, except for some people in Liaodong who really know the inside story, many people have no idea about the actual number of the Qing army, and there is no accurate statement at all.

Every time the Qing army entered the customs, they tried their best to exaggerate their own numbers for the sake of bluffing, claiming 20, claiming [-], and so on.Later, when compiling history, in order to exaggerate the results of the war, they deliberately reduced the number of their own side and exaggerated the number of the Ming army or the Shun army.

For example, when guarding Tongguan, Li Zicheng cobbled together 20 people and exaggerated it to 50. As a result, after the Qing army broke Tongguan, it was viciously recorded in the history books that Li Zicheng's 50 people broke the record!

This kind of thing is similar to the fog of war in the later games. People of later generations can see it clearly, but people at that time were deeply confused. If they can't solve this kind of confusion, there will be serious deviations in the judgment of war.

This is also the reason why Zhang Shouren set up the Military Intelligence Department and the Secret Service Department.

Sun Chengzong solved a lot of troubles for them, such as how to weave the Eight Banners and how many Dings there are. Cheng Ding is assessed every three years. Lishixian Camp, Baya La Camp, in addition to Tiger Gun Camp and Shenji Camp, there are more battalion heads. The Mongolian Eight Banners were compiled into left and right wings in the past. A few years ago, the Mongolian Eight Banners were compiled into the Mongolian Eight Banners, and their strength was greatly enhanced .
