Because Prince Yihe knew a lot of information, he followed Ning Wanyin's instructions and wrote down everything in detail. Not only the secrets he knew, but also some things he didn't think were secrets, all of which were written down.
This interrogation lasted for half a month, and a lot of pamphlets were written.
There is the intelligence that Prince Yihe holds in Daliang, and also the information about his connections in Da Yan...
Even Lianrui was shocked. Prince Yihe indeed had a wide network of contacts.
The key to Prince Yihe's network is to cast a wide net.
Choose a target, and if you can't hook up with it, then give up and find someone else. For example, if the target is a certain family, first hook up with the family's daughter, and if you can't hook up with her, then hook up with the wife, concubine, concubine, mistress...
Even the daughter and sister of the manager.
These seemingly trivial matters often hide a lot of secrets.
With his unremitting efforts over the years, his intelligence network has grown larger and larger, and the scope of information he has obtained has also become wider and wider...
Prince Yihe's trial took half a month, while Wu Mi's progress was very fast.
The eldest prince confessed on the first day he entered the Criminal Court!
In front of the torture instruments, he confessed that he and Prince Yihe had colluded with the enemy to murder the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. He also confessed the whole story of murdering Concubine Kang.
Ning Wanyin handed them both over to the clan affairs office for a further examination.
A few days later, he was sentenced to immediate execution.
Ning Wanyin also ordered a grand funeral for Concubine Kang and posthumously awarded her the title of Concubine Dowager Kang.
…
In the Ganxin Palace.
Ning Wanyin carefully read the intelligence booklet left by Prince Yihe.
The civil unrest in the capital will indeed affect the front line.
Ning Wanyin also arranged such a good tactic for Daliang.
As for the rest…
All that Prince Yihe could find out were the affairs of the imperial family in Liangdu. As he was thousands of miles away in Liangdu, it was impossible for him to know the military secrets of the border, and it was impossible for the women he was close to to know them either.
but……
After Ning Wanyin finished reading all the booklets, she picked up the map of the southwestern territory and circled each city on the map with an ink pen.
From the capital of Daliang to the border, Prince Yihe and his entourage took a straight line, but when they approached the border, they changed direction.
It looked like the person who might be docking was in the other direction.
But it is also possible that when they reached the border, the Daliang coach asked them to take a detour.
After changing direction, they bypassed the three cities they were originally going to pass through.
No one expected that someone would specifically monitor Prince Yihe's overseas travel route.
And in Ning Wanyin's opinion, there was something suspicious about the place you didn't let him get close to.
Ning Wanyin stared at the terrain of the three cities and compared them in detail. She felt that Qicheng was the best among the three cities.
It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and easy to support.
However, Ning Wanyin never made subjective judgments. She immediately found the Southwest War reports from the past two years.
In the battle between the two sides, comparing only these three cities, Daliang had more victories than defeats in Qicheng compared to the other two cities, and indeed had an advantage.
There are many cities like Qicheng that have geographical advantages along the entire Daliang front.
It wouldn't have attracted much attention.
After pondering three times, Ning Wanyin wrote a secret letter to Yu Song.
Pay special attention to these three cities, especially Qicheng.
At the same time, he wrote a secret letter to Bai Yi, the commander of the Qilin Guard, asking him to spread the secret of the Daliang father and son in the southwest.
In the spring of the first year of Jinghe, a shocking piece of news spread throughout the two countries.
It is said that the prince of Daliang is not the biological son of the emperor of Daliang, but the nephew of the queen who was secretly replaced by her.
The Crown Prince of Daliang did not dare to use the blood test to verify his kinship, so he took the initiative and launched a coup.
Daliang fell into civil strife.
The news reached the Daliang border front and the commander-in-chief's tent.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has launched a coup and fighting has broken out in the capital!" the personal guard reported.
Prince Duan's face was grim. The civil unrest in Daliang would definitely affect the border.
But now is the most appropriate time to launch the main attack!
Food, weapons, fortifications, and reinforcements are all ready. He has been preparing for this battle for three months in advance!
If we don't fight now, the capital may recall some generals and troops.
Then Daliang will never have the chance to recover its homeland.
Moreover, once there is internal strife in Daliang, Dayan will definitely invade.
Rather than being short-handed and passively beaten, it is better to fight to the death!
The more chaotic the situation in Daliang is, the more stable the borders must be.
He needs a big win to stop Da Yan.
Prince Duan's sight finally fell on Qicheng's position, and he said slowly, "According to the plan, make a feint to the east and attack in the west, and prepare for a decisive battle!"
"yes."
Daliang planned to launch a feint attack in Licheng, with the main force in Qicheng...
In March of the first year of Jinghe, the decisive battle of Yanliang took place.
Liang was badly defeated.
Dayan pursued the victory with unstoppable force.
In May of the first year of Jinghe, Emperor Liang quelled the rebellion of the crown prince and ordered the mobilization of troops from all over the country to support Prince Duan and stop Dayan.
With the support from the rear, Prince Duan's situation, which had been devastating all the way, was finally stabilized.
The two sides were caught in a tug-of-war, fighting back and forth for a city more than a dozen times in a month.
Emperor Liang once again ordered Prince Duan to hold the city.
The two countries were of similar strength, and Dayan was able to win by defeating Daliang's main force in a decisive battle and taking advantage of Daliang's internal strife.
After Daliang regained control of the situation, the two sides were evenly matched.
There was no way Ning Wanyin would exchange a tragic victory for the city.
So, although there was no peace talk this time, both sides stopped at the same time.
Since then, the border line of Dayan moved southward, and the territory of Daliang was reduced by a quarter.
…
Capital city, Golden Palace.
After the ministers paid their respects.
