Ping Chongmori's suggestion gave Ping Chongmori a new way of thinking.
He liked this strategy very much and was overjoyed. He adopted Ping Chongsheng's suggestion and started such propaganda in the ninth year of Hongwu.
He activated the public opinion machine and built up public opinion momentum. While attacking Su Yonglin's Ming Dynasty regime and "Hongwu Political Commentary", he promoted his identity as the protector of orthodox Chinese culture.
In order to obtain a more relaxed political environment and superior economic treatment, those who fled from the Southern Song Dynasty and Goryeo were also willing to build momentum for Binh Thanh, using their own cultural knowledge as capital, and mutually benefited the Binh Thanh regime.
They followed Taira Kiyomori's wishes and used the aura of glory brought by their status as Jinshi to socialize with admirers of Han culture among the Japanese royal family and aristocrats, establish friendships, endorse Taira Kiyomori's regime, and create a public opinion environment conducive to Taira Kiyomori. .
The title Jinshi is an unimpeded golden sign in the Confucian cultural circle. A Jinshi is an uncrowned king in the cultural field, a special noble, and is respected by everyone.
Japanese dignitaries also respect the Jinshi of the Southern Song Dynasty and Goryeo, especially the Jinshi of the Southern Song Dynasty. They are the top of the Jinshi pyramid. The Jinshi among the Jinshi are more likely to be sought after.
After all this trouble, coupled with the fueling of Taira Kiyomori's regime, the forces of the royal family and nobles were pulled into one faction by Taira Kiyomori, and they tended to be fragmented, unable to gather together into a fist to oppose Taira Kiyomori.
They hated Ping Qingmori, but they also felt very embarrassed about Ping Qingmori, who was supported by a large number of Jinshi of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Taira Kiyomori successfully consolidated his power through political attacks on the Ming Dynasty and the use of Goryeo escapees in the Southern Song Dynasty, and gained an absolute advantage in central Japan in the name of the protector of Chinese orthodox culture.
After the opponents at the central level were suppressed by Taira Kiyomori, the local opponents lost their support and became difficult to move forward. The samurai class had only force but lacked leadership and name. It was very difficult to act and could not truly oppose Taira Kiyomori.
After this wave of cultural offensive, relying on the endorsement of strong culture, Taira Kiyomori's power position has been further consolidated.
It seems that the Ping clan's regime is about to truly take root.
At this moment, the only powerful threat to the Ping regime is no longer at home, but only abroad, only in the Ming Dynasty.
The personal attacks on Daming and Su Yonglin were an important reason for Ping Qingmori to establish a stable rule. Once all this was known to Ming, Ping Qingmori would not dare to guarantee his own safety.
Who knows if Su Yonglin would be very angry if he knew this and send people to attack Japan?
Therefore, he constantly sent people to carry out activities and trade in the Quanzhou and Guangzhou ports opened to the outside world in the Ming Dynasty. While doing business and making money, he also explored the national trends of the Ming Dynasty.
Starting from the tenth year of Hongwu, Ping Qingsheng was always the first to know the political and military trends of the Ming Dynasty.
He lamented the Ming Dynasty's powerful military force, the way Su Yonglin showed his power, and his idealism. He admired such a peerless strong man in his heart, but he still remained completely afraid of him.
It was not until the end of the 12th year and the beginning of the 13th year of Hongwu that the news that Su Yonglin promoted the democratic republic reform and abandoned the emperor system spread back to Japan through Quanzhou business travel and reached the ears of Taira Kiyomori, which shocked him greatly.
He didn't know why Su Yonglin did this, why he gave up his status as emperor, abandoned the emperor's system, and used a brand new system called a democratic republic.
Su Yonglin also abandoned the old era name and adopted the republican calendar method to date the Ming Dynasty, expressing his intention to inherit the long cultural tradition of the Ming Dynasty.
He found that even if he knew everything, he still couldn't understand Su Yonglin. He began to feel inexplicable panic, and he always felt that something wrong was happening.
He didn't quite understand Su Yonglin's position after giving up the throne. The political trends after the Ming Dynasty also became very strange and beyond his understanding.
He blocked these matters from the outside world and did not allow the news to spread. Internally, he only communicated with his trusted relatives, retainers, and former Southern Song Dynasty officials Fan Li and Zhang Zeli.
Their reactions were equally shocked.
A group of people communicated and exchanged, but they couldn't figure out the purpose of what Su Yonglin did.
But not long after, new news came from Guangzhou.
A revolution occurred in the Champa State. The original ruler was overthrown and died, and a new regime was established.
Champa Democratic Republic.
This is the name of the new Champa country.
The official name of the Ming Dynasty is the Ming Democratic Republic, and Champa has now become a democratic republic. There is no emperor or nobility.
At the same time, there were a large number of Ming official ships going out to sea in Guangzhou and Quanzhou, carrying a large number of people who were said to be official personnel. They vaguely heard that their destination was a country on the southern sea, but they didn't know what they were going to do.
Taira Kiyomori's keen political sense made him immediately aware of the approaching crisis, and perhaps others were aware of it as well.
A country without an emperor and nobility was not the country they needed, nor the country they could survive in.
Taira Kiyomori began to ask businessmen in Quanzhou and Guangzhou to be more active in collecting information related to the Ming Dynasty and report it to him as soon as possible so that he could have time to prepare.
But starting from the 13th year of Hongwu, that is, the 2015th year of the Republic of China, there were problems with the spread of news in Guangzhou and Quanzhou.
Several Japanese businessmen who often collected intelligence and spread news for the Taira regime were arrested by the Ming Dynasty.
The reason for the arrest was that they violated the law and discipline, violated the Fair Trade Act, and used inferior goods to harm the merchants of the Dashi Country. The merchants of the Dashi Country reported them to the Shipping Department.
The Municipal Shipping Department sent people to verify and believed that the Japanese businessmen had violated the law, so they notified the Quanzhou Justice Bureau. Quanzhou law guards came to arrest the Japanese businessmen, put them in prison, sentenced them to five years in prison, and confiscated all their property.
After these businessmen were arrested, the other Japanese businessmen were very frightened and began to act cautiously, not daring to make any big moves to detect intelligence. Therefore, it became even more difficult for Taira Kiyomori to obtain the intelligence of the Ming Dynasty in a more timely manner.
In fact, Su Yonglin had known about Japan's intelligence collection from the Ming Dynasty for a long time. The Skynet Army spies he sent to Japan had already established a foothold in Japan and established an intelligence organization.
This intelligence organization mainly used the Southern Song Dynasty fugitive families who fled to Japan to develop members, establish an intelligence network, and extend the tentacles of intelligence detection to the Japanese ruling class, and even get close to Taira Kiyomori himself.
This is not what the Southern Song Dynasty fugitives themselves wanted.
For example, Fan Li and Zhang Zeli, former Southern Song officials who were deeply trusted and relied upon by Taira Kiyomori, did not want such a thing to happen, but their own will could not affect all family members.
The Tianwang Army organization went to Japan with three large-scale waves of Southern Song Dynasty refugees fleeing to Japan, or took advantage of business and trade opportunities to enter Japan. It first established a foothold in Japan, and then gradually developed espionage among the Southern Song Dynasty refugee groups.
The process is actually not difficult.
