After Su Changsheng saw the outline of this action plan, he was very unhappy. While sending the news to Zhongdu, he began to plan targeted sabotage of this plan.
In fact, Yu Yunwen has really done a lot to keep this plan secret, including using eunuchs instead of civilian officials, including personally managing the plan without using any outsiders, etc. These methods have all played a very good role in keeping this plan secret.
But the problem is that it is not enough for him to have a sense of confidentiality.
As a large department, the Privy Council originally had a lot of people, but now it is so powerful and has more things to do. People come and go all day long, and they are all big shots who are not diligent about their body and mind. This health issue is a big problem. Very important.
Therefore, the Privy Council recruited a large number of contract cleaners from Lin'an City, more than a hundred people. They are responsible for serving tea, delivering water, boiling water, chopping wood, sanitation and other chores. Although their daily tasks are simple, but It’s also quite complicated.
Su Changsheng stuffed four spies from the Second Action Group into the Privy Council. They all entered under the banner of "illiterate" and "hard-working and willing to work". It was easy, as long as they were confirmed to be Lin'an locals.
Of course, it is impossible to recruit literate people for such a lowly chore job. These days, if you can read, you are not an ordinary person. Which person who can read will work as a cleaning handyman for others?
The servants of the Privy Council are also servants. .
So the four spies entered the Privy Council smoothly, served tea and water to the gentlemen, and cleaned up. They were exhausted every day, with tiring work and low pay. During the meeting, they kept complaining that the work here was really not good. Dry.
But the work is not easy to do, but the information they get is real. Sometimes they just glance at it while cleaning up the garbage, and they can see some information about military dispatch and recruitment. It's easy, nothing. pressure.
Yu Yunwen had already done his best to keep secrets secret, but he still couldn't escape the eyes of the spies and his special skill called [Literacy].
When Yu Yunwen himself was revising the plan, he was not prepared for the spy Huang Jie who came in to bring tea, water and cleaning. Huang Jie caught a glimpse of Yu Yunwen writing about the Yellow River dam and destruction. He was shocked and wrote down the matter.
That night, he sneaked into the Privy Council while the guard guarding the Privy Council was dozing off.
According to the information that Huang Jie learned after working in the Privy Council for many days, the scheduled night patrols and door lock checks, etc., which were scheduled to be done once an hour, are basically non-existent. Soldiers assigned to night shift guards often find a hut to sleep directly. Wait until dawn and leave without patrolling at all.
Huang Jie sneaked in smoothly and arrived at Yu Yunwen's office room with ease. He easily picked the door lock and rummaged around the room, and found Yu Yunwen's plan to destroy the Yellow River dam in a cabinet.
He read through the content, noted down some key points, then restored everything to the original state, returned the same way, and left the Privy Council smoothly.
It's like never being here.
The next morning, Su Changsheng found out about this matter.
Su Changsheng himself knew that those landlords and gentry who were lucky enough to survive fled to the Southern Song Dynasty to seek political asylum, but he did not expect that some Southern Song officials would try to use these guys to do such unscrupulous things.
Su Changsheng was very angry at first, but he soon calmed down and found the Southern Song Dynasty monarchs a bit funny.
The overthrow of the Southern Song Dynasty by the Ming Dynasty was planned. It was something Su Yonglin had decided long ago. Even if there was no reason, he would go ahead with it. They were planning and planning here to find an alibi for themselves, but it was not necessary for the Ming Dynasty to overthrow them. What proof of presence.
No matter what your reasons are, when the time comes, you have to hit the road.
I won’t tolerate you just because you haven’t done anything about the Yellow River Dam.
However, what they did was still very unscrupulous, so Su Changsheng felt that if Su Yonglin knew the news, he would definitely set up tombstones for Zhao Min and Yu Yunwen in advance.
All the descendants of Du Chong who broke the Yellow River were liquidated by Su Yonglin. He hated people who would do anything to achieve their goals and even make fun of the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.
There will definitely be no good results for such a person in Su Yonglin's hands.
In addition, Su Changsheng felt that they could do such unscrupulous things. It was conceivable that they had no other options and could no longer think of normal ways to fight against the Ming Dynasty.
While Su Changsheng sent someone to deliver the news to Su Yonglin by sea, he also asked Huang Jie to keep an eye on Yu Yunwen, trying to get more information and figure out their action plan.
Then, he began to send people to keep an eye on the place where the fleeing landlords and gentry gathered. After they arrived in Lin'an, they were arranged by the Lin'an government to live together for management.
Now this group of people is not in Lin'an City. There is no place for them to live in Lin'an City, and they are not worthy.
Now they can only temporarily live in an abandoned village outside Lin'an City, wearing rags and living a life of eating chaffy vegetables every day. They don't know what arrangements the Southern Song Dynasty court has for them, and they are miserable.
Su Changsheng also knew that all their belongings had been extorted by Southern Song officials.
They went through all kinds of hardships to save part of their property, and originally planned to settle down and start a new business in the Southern Song Dynasty. Unexpectedly, they became lambs to be slaughtered as soon as they came over, and were extorted by the government on the pretext of purchasing houses, land, food and clothing.
Now this group of people has been completely reduced to a state of abject poverty, relying on the government's relief food to live, hungry and full, but they don't know how they feel in their hearts.
After all, they thought they could live a good life in the Southern Song Dynasty, which was extremely stupid.
Why did the local snakes of the Southern Song Dynasty give up their own interests to them?
This kind of thing happened in the Han Dynasty.
Su Changsheng, who has read a lot of history books, knows that there was a mausoleum system in the Han Dynasty, which was a system in which some powerful local families were moved to the core areas of the Han Dynasty's rule under the banner of the Glory Family.
Essentially, it is to curb the development of local forces and stabilize centralized rule.
Although they are allowed to take away their family property, they obviously cannot take away their real estate. Moreover, even if they take their property to the Wuling area, there are already countless seniors living there in the Wuling area. You have good intentions, but you still want to settle down and start a family?
Have you visited the pier?
Su Changsheng had already known about the news that this group of people came to the Southern Song Dynasty, and also knew about their many slanders against the policies of the Ming Dynasty, so he was planning to kill them all, but he had not yet decided what kind of poison would be better. .
Now it looks like the plans could change a bit.
A series of targeted solutions gradually formed in Su Changsheng's mind.
While Su Changsheng and Yu Yunwen were acting on their own plans, the Privy Council of the Southern Song Dynasty also began to plan the fourth official encirclement and suppression of the Jiangnan West Road Liberated Area.
They feel like they can again.
The failure of the first two major sieges dealt a heavy blow to the Southern Song Dynasty court, especially the failure of the second and third sieges, which caused a swarm of thieves on the march of the Jiangnan West Road Peasant Army, strongmen robbing homes and houses everywhere, and the place was in chaos.
The Southern Song Dynasty court was unable to resolve this matter due to the declining state affairs, which made many people feel that they had seen the end of the Southern Song Dynasty.
But I didn't expect that the publication of Su Yonglin's book would actually give the Southern Song Dynasty a shot in the arm and give them a second spring. Many people took the initiative to spend money to help the Southern Song Dynasty court recruit troops and strengthen its military strength, in order to counter Su Yonglin's ideological offensive.
Under such circumstances, the reconstruction of the army in the Jianghuai Theater was almost completed, and the reconstruction of the army in the Jinghu Theater was also put on the agenda.
At that time, Yao Zhong's troops, who came from the Sichuan-Sichuan Theater to support the battle, are still staying in the Jinghu Theater. Although the situation in the Jinghu Theater is not good, they still maintain this certain army size.
During this period of time, the peasant army on Jiangnan West Road has shown no signs of going out to cause trouble, and the area along Jiangnan West Road has been calm.
With the implementation of the material embargo policy, both the Privy Council and Zhao Yu felt that the Jiangnan West Road Peasant Army had almost reached its limit and could start preparing for the fourth and final large-scale encirclement and suppression.
This time we will definitely win!
