Emperor Xianfeng had two copies of Wei Ze's inscriptions in his hands, the first one was Wei Ze's inscription before he left the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the second was the inscription issued after Wei Ze conquered the city of Guangzhou. These two letters made the young emperor extremely unhappy. As an emperor, it is nothing for the rebel to scold a few words in the text, which is just an inevitable problem brought about by the position of the emperor. What made Xianfeng unhappy was some of the internal systems of the imperial court exposed in Wei Ze's essay, as well as the fierce criticism of this system.

The proportion of Manchu imperial examinations and the proportion of Manchu officials were originally used by the Manchu court to restrain the power of the Han Chinese, which was nothing to discuss for Emperor Xianfeng. However, when Wei Ze regarded the Manchus as Tartars, and the Manchus never really used themselves as evidence of China, it really hit the young emperor's mind deeply. It's not because Weeser is lying nonsense, it's precisely because Weeser is telling the truth. Xianfeng himself had really deeply considered the relationship between China and the Manchu Qing Dynasty before, and this time he was taught a good lesson by Wei Ze.

Zeng Guofan also put forward a comprehensive refutation of the issue of the worship of God in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and Wei Ze's second document has made it clear that he did not believe in God worship in the first place, but only joined in order to overthrow the Manchu Qing, and since he joined, Wei Ze has focused all his energy on attacking the Manchu Qing. Obviously, Wei Ze is greatly showing his martial arts, and he bragged about his history of conquering a large number of cities in the south and the north and killing a large number of high-ranking Manchu officials. He claimed that he only devoted himself to fighting the Manchu Qing Dynasty every day, that is, he did not care, and he did not have time to participate in the religious activities of worshipping God. It became very difficult for Zeng Guofan to include Wei Ze in the heresy again.

Of course, Xianfeng ordered people to compare the war history recorded in this arrogant and boastful inscription with the records of the Qing court, and the situation on both sides is completely consistent. Xianfeng began to regret his decision to let Wei Ze go south to Guangdong freely. In the battle in which the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom won a great victory, Yang Xiuqing and Wei Ze joined forces to occupy about seventy percent of the merits. The basis for letting Wei Ze go south was that he believed that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was the root and Wei Ze was the tip. Looking at it now, there is still room for discussion between the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and Wei Ze as to who is more important and who is more important.

At that time, once the strategy was decided, there was no room for reversal, and after Wei Ze occupied Guangzhou, he began to attack other parts of Guangdong. All the forces of the imperial court were used against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Tiandihui in Guangxi, and the power of Guangdong became completely empty. Wei Ze's complete seizure of Guangdong is already inevitable.

"Hooray! Zeng Guofan has an urgent twist! "The eunuch came in to report.

"Bring it!" Xianfeng said immediately. At that time, it was Zeng Guofan who built yì to let Wei Ze go south, and Xianfeng heard that there was Zeng Guofan's twists and turns, and he also had a lot of anger in his heart.

After the performance was delivered, Xianfeng only watched it for a while, and he was a little happy in his heart. After the defeat in the Battle of Hukou, Zeng Guofan changed his previous tactics of competing with the Taiping Army and adopted the method of "forming a strong village and fighting a dumb battle". The Qing army built a long trench from the official card clamp to the end of Baishui Lake, which was more than 3o miles long, 3 zhang 5 feet wide, 2 zhang deep, a total of 6 roads, and formed a three-sided encirclement of Jiujiang. In the middle of the compromise, the long trench had been repaired at this time, and it surrounded the Jiujiang guarded by the Taiping army. The Hunan Army's naval division, which had been blocked in Poyang Lake, took advantage of the situation to rush into the Yangtze River and join the Hunan Army's naval division on the Yangtze River.

According to such a siege situation, it will not be long before the Qing army will be able to conquer Jiujiang and open up the route between Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River. At that time, the Hunan army would attack upstream and recapture Wuchang. Once the waterways of the upper reaches of the Jiujiang River were controlled, the Hunan army would be able to go downstream, break through Jiangning, and completely kill the Cantonese bandits.

Seeing this news, Xianfeng felt that Zeng Guofan's original plan might be reasonable. No matter how ruthless Wei Ze is, there are only more than 40,000 horses, if he can clean up the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the next year, and hundreds of thousands of troops will attack Guangdong in the south, Wei Ze will not be able to resist at all.

Turning his attention to Wei Ze's second inscription again, Wei Ze said in the inscription. Ye Mingchen asked the Guangdong local government to form a group practice on its own and attack the Heaven and Earth Society. This incident was before Wei Ze went south to Guangdong, and Wei Ze couldn't dispose of the local group training because of this. Now that Wei Ze is in control of Guangdong, Wei Ze is not to blame for all regimental training forces that have clashed with Wei Ze's troops before 23 June. But after June 23, wherever Wei Ze's text went, there were still troops who dared to attack Wei Ze in the regimental training, and Wei Ze was attached to the Manchu bandits as a regimental training, and he would definitely not spare it.

The word Manchu bandits could not stimulate Xianfeng, and a message revealed in the text was that at this time, there were still many regiments training in various parts of Guangdong, and Wei Ze still had no ability to eliminate them. If we can make full use of this group to train their armaments and prevent Wei Ze from entering the place, it will make Wei Ze unable to stand in Guangdong in the short term.

The imperial court had already discussed the matter, and ordered people to take a boat from Fujian to Guangdong to post a post, and those who could kill a soldier of Wei Ze would be rewarded with meritorious fame, and those who could occupy a county seat controlled by Wei Ze would be sealed with a county order. Those who can occupy the capital city of Wei Ze will be crowned the prefect, and those who can occupy the provincial capital will be immediately crowned governor. Since Guangdong is no longer controlled by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Manchu court can certainly seal the official without hesitation.

In fact, the Manchu court also knew very well in their hearts that this group of militias might not have the troops capable of dealing with Wei Ze. But as long as they can fight with Weze's forces and settle a mortal enmity with Weze. Wei Ze's troops were unfamiliar with Guangdong, and were unable to distinguish which were self-protecting militias and which were genuinely hostile to Wei Ze. After inciting Wei Ze's fear and hostility towards the militia group, Wei Ze was only afraid that he would let go and kill the militia group, and with such killings, Wei Ze didn't want to really occupy Guangdong.

Provoking inter-provincial and local contradictions was the Manchu Qing's forte. Xianfeng did not think that bandits like Wei Ze from the ravine could crack the Manchu Qing's method of provoking contradictions and divide and rule. Although Ye Mingchen was defeated by Wei Ze, his method of raising group training completely inherited such skills. Even local rebel forces such as the Tiandihui were beaten to the point that they could not stand in Guangdong and had to flee to Guangxi and Jiangxi. For Wei Ze, who is in a hurry to gain a foothold in Guangdong, the more anxious he is, the more he will make mistakes. When Wei Ze regards the militia as his biggest enemy, the militia will really fight against Wei Ze endlessly.

Thinking of this, Xianfeng ordered someone to draft an edict. In the edict, Zeng Guofan was ordered to attack Jiujiang as soon as possible, and once Jiujiang was conquered, he immediately attacked Jiangning downstream, so as to exterminate the Cantonese bandits.

After sending out the edict, Xianfeng suddenly thought about whether the Yue bandits would be destroyed first, or Wei Ze would be destroyed first. It's really hard to be sure.
