On the issue of dealing with the Liberation Army, Zhang Yingchen's position has always been very embarrassing. Whether it is Lin Fengxiang or Shi Dakai, they don't really think that Zhang Yingchen is their person. During the Tianjing Change, Zhang Yingchen gradually became the leader of the Imperial Forest Army of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan. In the end, Hong Xiuquan relied on Zhang Yingchen to settle the Northern King Wei Changhui and solve the Yan King Qin Rigang and Zuo Tianhou Chen Chengying.

As Wei Ze's former subordinate and Hong Xiuquan's confidant, Zhang Yingchen's position is very embarrassing. But Zhang Yingchen has 30,000 imperial forest troops in his hands, which is the largest military force in the capital. Even after Hong Xiuquan's death, Shi Dakai tried every means to weaken and restrict Zhang Yingchen, but Zhang Yingchen won the trust of the current king Hong Tianfugui, and Lin Fengxiang didn't want Shi Dakai to monopolize Chang'an. So Zhang Yingchen has stabilized his position.

Hong Tianfugui saw Zhang Yingchen, and after the monarch and ministers saw the ceremony, Hong Tianfugui kicked everyone else out and asked Zhang Yingchen to sit next to him, before he lowered his voice and said, "Brother Zhang, what news has been there outside recently?" ”

Zhang Yingchen sighed slightly, as soon as Hong Xiuquan died, Shi Dakai's actions were actually no different from Yang Xiuqing's, and gradually confined the Heavenly King to the palace. Of course, this can't be all blamed on Shi Dakai, when Hong Xiuquan was alive, the means of educating the "Young Heavenly King" were really strange, Hong Xiuquan was unwilling to let any men enter his harem, so Hong Tianfugui's enlightenment teacher was not erudite Hongru, but his half-sister Hong Tianjiao, who was 10 years older than him.

As for the content of study, Hong Tianguifu has successively read the "Ten Perfect Great Fortune Poems", "Three Character Classics", "Kindergarten Poems", "Thousand Character Edicts", "Xingshiwen", "Taiping Salvation Edict", "Taiping Salvation Edict", and "Promulgation Edict" published by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

After entering Tianjing City, Hong Xiuquan was full of pride, and at every turn, "my brother and I sit in heaven, and the eternal light shines on all directions and oceans". With the blessing of God and Jesus, why bother learning anything else?

So in this "paradise on earth", Hong Tianguifu grew up step by step according to Hong Xiuquan's whimsy, and at the age of 9, Hong Tianguifu had 4 wives arranged by Hong Xiuquan for him.

Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom later suffered a major setback, there was no danger. Hong Xiuquan was even more immersed in perfecting his "teachings" at this time, and as for his son's education, Hong Xiuquan did not remember it until 1867, when his health began to deteriorate greatly. But at that time, Hong Tianfu had lost the best time for education.

After Hong Xiuquan's death, this 19-year-old young man who did not know how to manage politics at all was helped to the throne of the king. With such a miraculous educational experience, it is completely impossible to expect him to take on the responsibility of running the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

No matter what Shi Dakai thinks of Hongtian Fugui, and no matter what the kings and important ministers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom think of Hongtian Fugui. Zhang Yingchen's evaluation of Hong Tianfu cannot be considered bad. The child was very simple, and Hong Tianfu instinctively disagreed with what his father taught him. Everyone in the entire Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has their own ideas about Hongtian wealth. Only Zhang Yingchen is really guarding this child. So Hong Tianfu regards Zhang Yingchen as his good friend. After he became the king of heaven, when the two got along in private, Hong Tianfugui always called Zhang Yingchen his brother.

When talking about his ideals in private, Hong Tianfu didn't want to be this king at all, his ideal was to go to school, read books, and then take the test to make a name for himself, starting from a petty official step by step. As for the longer-term future, this kid hasn't seen it, so naturally he doesn't know.

And what's even more interesting is that the person Hong Tianfu is most interested in, and even admires, is actually Wei Ze. Wei Ze, a fierce general who began to emerge in the Taiping Army at the age of 19, fought all the way from Guangxi to Hebei, made great achievements, and was crowned King of Qi for the first time at the age of 21. At the time of crisis, he led his troops to the south, and began a more brilliant road.

Such a person who flies to his heart's content with his own strength undoubtedly makes Hong Tianfugui, who has been confined in the palace since he was a child, extremely envious. And Zhang Yingchen, who once followed Wei Ze, saw Wei Ze's most glorious stage in the Taiping Army. Hong Tianfugui naturally likes to listen to the story about Wei Ze from Zhang Yingchen the most.

Zhang Yingchen was frightened at first, but later slowly understood that Hong Tianfu's approach was not malicious. Because of this, he slowly became "friends" with Hong Tianfugui.

Hearing Hong Tianfugui say this, Zhang Yingchen could only reply: "It's okay outside, nothing has changed." ”

Hong Tianfugui heard Zhang Yingchen's statement that he should deal with it like this, so he simply asked directly: "I'm asking my brother, what King Qi said is that you can let the brothers of the heavenly kingdom go home and see, how is this matter." ”

Although he knew that Hong Tianfugui had no malicious intentions, Zhang Yingchen's feeling in his heart was that Hong Tianfugui really didn't open any pot. Around this matter, the upper echelons of the Kingdom of Heaven have used very drastic means to deal with it. Zhang Yingchen persuaded: "Heavenly King, when you arrive at the court, you can't mention this matter no matter what!" ”

Hong Tianfu nodded, "I know this!" It's not that he didn't mention it, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was stopped by Shi Dakai. Hong Tianfugui is not the kind of person with a strong personality, Shi Dakai has a tough attitude, he will choose to give in. This character is too weak for the people of the king. However, for a puppet king with no authority, this is the best way to save his life.

This makes Zhang Yingchen sometimes unclear whether Hong Tianfugui is smart or not.

"Brother, I want to go home!" Hong Tianfu was silent for a moment and then suddenly spoke, and after finishing speaking, he was afraid that Zhang Yingchen would not understand, so he hurriedly added, "I want to go back to my hometown in Guangxi." ”

Zhang Yingchen's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly persuaded: "Heavenly King, don't say this to others!" ”

"I know. That's why I only dare to say this to my brother. I really want to go back to my hometown in Guangxi. Hong Tianfugui said seriously.

Zhang Yingchen only felt that he really shouldn't come, but Zhang Yingchen was a person who had experienced so many things, and all kinds of thoughts immediately rolled in his mind. For the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he has long lost confidence. It's just that the world is so big, and he has nowhere to go.

When Yang Xiuqing deprived Zhang Yingchen of his military power, it was Zhang Yingchen who made a fool of himself and let Yang Xiuqing catch the truth. Yang Xiuqing was ruthless enough, and he used the reason that Zhang Yingchen was disrespectful to Wei Ze to deprive Zhang Yingchen of his military power. At this time, Zhang Yingchen even found a way to return to Wei Ze's side. In fact, Zhang Yingchen's future is tantamount to a death sentence. If it weren't for this, Zhang Yingchen would not have been pulled down by Zuo Tianhou Chen Chengying so easily.

Up to now, Zhang Yingchen has actually thought about whether he would simply leave everything in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and return to his hometown in Yong'an to be a farmer or a businessman. But he has done a lot of things, whether Wei Ze can let him go is the biggest worry in Zhang Yingchen's heart.

After listening to Hong Tianfugui's words, Zhang Yingchen really had to think about too many things.

At this time, in the Yiwang Mansion, Shi Dakai, Yang Fuqing and Li Xiucheng listened to the defeated soldiers who fled back tell everything that happened. All three of them didn't believe in their subordinates' demon laws. However, they also knew that Weezer had a new weapon of great power in his hands. This weapon is not at all something that the Taiping army can fight against.

The Liberation Army was already very strong, so strong that the Taiping Army could not fight at all. Even if the Liberation Army has this new weapon, it will not make any fundamental changes in the situation.

After letting the defeated soldiers go down, Li Xiucheng said: "Prime Minister, since things are already like this, do you think the Guangfu Army will hit Tianjing City." ”

"I don't think it's going to be in a month." Shi Dakai said.

"So I only have a month to prepare?" Lee so-sung tried to make sure.

Yang Fuqing said: "One month is probably enough to defend Tianjing City." ”

Li Xiucheng looked at the forty-year-old veteran of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and said slowly: "I'm afraid that Tianjing City can't hold it." This month is the time to move the capital. ”

"Move the capital?" Yang Fuqing was stunned.

Li Xiucheng replied: "First of all, let the brothers agree to the matter of moving the capital, and then we will let the king go first, and the other things will be transported away part by piece." ”

"The Liberation Army hasn't moved yet, and we're going to move the capital?" Yang Fuqing didn't care at all about the steps proposed by Li Xiucheng, and he questioned Li Xiucheng's proposal to move the capital in a strong tone.

Li Xiucheng replied calmly: "When the Guangfu Army comes, no one will be able to leave." If we don't move the capital now, everyone will be in chaos at that time, and the Guangfu Army will not have to work hard at all, and we will not be able to leave at all if they chase after us! ”

Shi Dakai didn't wait for Yang Fuqing to oppose again, he said decisively: "Let's tell the kings first, the Guangfu army will raid our army. This matter needs to be known to the kings. ”

Li Xiucheng didn't say anything anymore, the most important thing now was to get the kings to agree and completely part ways with the Guangfu Army. Li Xiucheng had long thought that the kings were too afraid of Wei Ze and too afraid of the Guangfu army. This completely tied the hands and feet of the Taiping army. Back then, Hong Xiuquan once put forward a very crazy plan, that is, to fight all the way to the west, to Rome, so that the Pope would recognize Hong Xiuquan, the second son of God.

This plan was so outrageous that all the princes and ministers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom unanimously opposed it. Li Xiucheng was naturally opposed at the time, but now that he thinks about it, if the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom could really devote itself to westward expansion at that time, maybe it would have carved out a world in the west long ago. For the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, hardships and dangers were nothing. Now this situation of living in the northwest and not wanting to make progress is the most fatal.

Shi Dakai continued: "I will ask Zhang Yingchen to strengthen the defense of Tianjing City, and this matter will be discussed as soon as possible." ”

Zhang Yingchen soon received Shi Dakai's order, he walked back and forth in the house for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and prepared a small package, Zhang Yingchen went to see the Heavenly King Hong Tianfugui. "Heavenly King, do you want to go back to your hometown in Guangxi?"

"Of course!" Hong Tianfu replied in surprise.

"In that case, please ask the Heavenly King to listen to my arrangement. Don't say a word! Zhang Yingchen said nervously.

"Brother, don't worry, little brother, I will be obedient!" Looking at Zhang Yingchen's expression, Hong Tianfugui showed the kind of quiet expression that would only be shown when he was stopped by the loyal ministers led by Shi Dakai in the court.
