Pyongyang's summer scenery is good, with mountains, rivers, ancient cities, and the people of the city, who have finally regained some order despite their panic, and they are dressed in Goryeo-style hanfu, which looks more elegant than robes and horse coats.

Zeng Guofan was having a banquet with his subordinates, and the wine of Goryeo was not as mellow as the rice wine of Jiangnan, nor as spicy as the spirits of the north, and the dull taste was quite similar to the situation of the Hunan army, which occupied half of the country of Goryeo at this time. The army from China occupied half of Goryeo, and the Goryeo people couldn't defeat it after fighting more than a dozen battles, large and small, so they simply recognized it. The Koreans in the south were only holding on to the danger and preventing the Hunan army from continuing southward. At this time, the Hunan army did not have the ability to continue to move south, so it could only entrench itself in the territory it had occupied. This is actually a very dangerous situation, in Chinese idioms, the Hunan army is already at the end of the crossbow at this time.

Zeng Guofan already knew that the small court of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had fallen, and the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, the Little Emperor of Tongzhi, and Prince Gong Yixin all fell into the hands of the Guangfu Army at this time. After entering the Guanwai, the Liberation Army began to sweep the area and clear the remnants of the Manchurian armed forces in the area. The total number of Hunan troops and other Han Chinese troops was only 40,000, and without the support of the local government in Goryeo, and the supply of weapons and ammunition was cut off, it was only a matter of time before they were destroyed.

Bao Chao, the fierce general of the Hunan army, was drunk, and he shouted at Fu Ming'a, a high-ranking Manchu official who also participated in the drinking party, "You, come and pour wine!" ”

Fu Ming'a is also a banner general, and when Bao Chao shouted at him like this, he had an unhappy expression on his face. But what if it's not fast. At this time, the Hunan army was really a very strange army. Theoretically, they were also the last formed army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the main force of the Eight Banners of Mongolia was basically finished with the fall of Seng Lingqin. After the Manchus fled to Guanwai, the Mongol princes did not have the idea of accompanying the Manchus to the funeral, so they did not respond to the orders of the Manchu small court at all. Among the armies directly under Shengjing, the Hunan army is undoubtedly the most capable and skilled one.

However, the Manchus never regarded the Han people as trustworthy objects, and the reliability of the Hunan army in the Manchu Qing Dynasty even had to be placed under the long unreliable Mongolian Eight Banners. But the Manchu court was destroyed, the emperor, the empress dowager, and the prince were all arrested, and the strongest remaining army of the Manchu Qing at this time was only the Hunan army. The Han army holding up the banner of the Manchurians is an extremely comical thing from any point of view.

At this time, the "holy decree" jointly signed by the Manchu Tongzhi Emperor, the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, and Prince Gong Yixin had been sent to Pyongyang. The Hunan army was demanded to disarm and surrender to the Guangfu army. Fu Ming'a can still clearly remember how Bao Chao cut off the head of the eunuch Xiao Dezhang with a knife, and he can still clearly remember the blood stains on Bao Chao's face when he smiled and shouted, "This dead eunuch faked the holy decree and deceived us to die".

Fu Ming'a was a prison sent by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he was respected in the past, how dare Bao Chao speak loudly to him. Now it's really a phoenix that sheds its hair and is not as good as a chicken, and Bao Chao will forcibly call Fu Ming'a at every drinking party, and after calling him, he will call Fu Ming'a like a miscellaneous servant. A few months ago, Fu Ming'a tried to resist, Bao Chao immediately ordered someone to drag Fu Ming'a out and beat him with thirty military sticks, and continued to call Fu Ming'a the next day after the beating. Fu Ming'a only hated himself for not having the courage to commit suicide, but he really didn't want to kill himself!

Seeing that Fu Ming'a was a little hesitant, Bao Chao spat out his wine and shouted drunkly: "Fu Ming'a, don't pretend." Although you are a banner man, who doesn't know that your ancestor is Yuan Chonghuan of the Ming Dynasty. became an official of the Ming Dynasty and voted for the Manchu Qing Dynasty. You think you are a banner person, and your ancestors are still Han people. Pose a ball hair score! ”

Bao Chao is not a scholar, Yuan Chonghuan did not directly surrender to the Manchu Qing after all, but Yuan Chonghuan's son happily voted for the Manchu Qing Dynasty and became a banner man. Of course, Fu Ming'a knew about his ancestors, but at this time he didn't want to defend himself. The Manchu Qing Dynasty is over, and the Qiē that Fuminga can rely on is gone. Now that he is in the Hunan army, Bao Chao, the general of the Hunan army, wants to kill him like pinching a bed bug. Like his ancestors, Fu Ming'a lowered his head and poured wine for Bao Chao.

In the entire Hunan army, the only one who may be loyal to the Manchu Qing is Zeng Guofan, and the other generals saw Bao Chao angry with Fuming'a, as if they didn't see it. Zeng Guofan saw it, but he really wasn't in the mood to care about these things at this time. This great Manchu loyal minister had almost all white hair at this time, and his hair was still gray when he first arrived in Goryeo. In order to find a way to revive the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Zeng Guofan tried his brains. But manpower is sometimes poor, and in the face of a situation that is irreparable, Zeng Guofan has no other way than to have gray hair in vain.

Did you flee back to Kanwai and try to return to your hometown? The accents of these people are immediately recognizable halfway through. Do you want to stay in Goryeo? The Hunan army's current equipment, especially weapons and ammunition, was completely insufficient to continue fighting, and the last few battles were entirely won by the Hunan army relying on its own experience and adopting the method of outflanking behind the backs of surprise soldiers. Seeing the brilliant results, the Koreans did not dare to challenge the Hunan army at all. In fact, this is just a flashback.

Of course, there is another way, which is to return to Guannai again, not to the south but to the north, to Qiqihar and join the troops of General Heilongjiang. It is not known whether Qiqihar has been taken by the Guangfu Army, but when Zeng Guofan put forward such an idea, the Hunan army, including Zeng Guofan's younger brother Zeng Guoquan, opposed it. The reason is simple, the Hunan army did not want to leave Goryeo at all. In Goryeo, they could still rely on coercion to obtain supplies, but when they arrived at the Heilongjiang general, the Hunan army immediately became inferior to the Manchurians again.

Bao Chao's bullying of Fu Ming'a looked like a domineering Hu Wei, but in fact, he also wanted to completely cut off the possibility of Zeng Guofan going to the Heilongjiang general. If he took Fuming'a to General Heilongjiang, wouldn't Fuming'a try to borrow the power of General Heilongjiang to take revenge? If he killed Fu Ming'a and then went to Qiqihar ......, and killed Fu Ming'a, the overseer, Zeng Guofan would have no reason to let the generals go to Qiqihar at all.

Reckless people may be reckless in doing things, but it does not mean that reckless men lack heart. When reckless people see through the crux of the matter, their coping methods are often remarkable.

The generals of the Hunan army did not mention the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Guangfu Army, the war, or peace, and everyone tried so hard to drink the faint Korean wine and talk about the woman they had recently gotten. No matter how bland, it is still a comfort for those who have no future. Even if you can't get intoxicated, you will get drunk if you drink too much.

Bao Chao has already gotten up and gone to the toilet four times, and the other generals of the Hunan army are similar, drinking to this point, and after drinking for more than half an hour, the generals will be drunk. Fall asleep. The Guangfu Army has not been attacked, and this kind of drunkenness has been the norm for the generals of the Hunan Army recently.

Standing in the toilet, Bao Chao suddenly heard the sound of cannons outside. Bao Chao impatiently shouted to the soldiers outside the toilet: "Go and see who has enough to eat and hold the cannon." ”

After hearing this, the soldiers went immediately, and Bao Chao continued to relieve himself. Recently, every day is a party to eat, drink, and go home to play with women, Bao Chao feels that Xiao Xie has also become very unsmooth, as if there is always a feeling of not being able to urinate completely, but no matter how you control it, you can't urinate at a refreshing time.

At this time, he heard the sound of artillery outside getting denser and denser, and Bao Chao thought that maybe it was the Liberation Army coming. But he felt that it was not right, it was impossible for the Liberation Army to drive straight in so long. Could it be that the Goryeo army is coming? Thinking of the repeatedly defeated Goryeo army, Bao Chao's nervousness immediately flew out of the clouds. He closed his eyes, held Tintin with one hand to continue control, and rubbed his temples with the other that felt groggy from drinking too much. At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Bao Chao felt that it should be his own personal soldier, and he shouted with his tongue open: "Outside...... Who's firing the cannon outside? ”

The soldiers ran close to Bao Chao, Bao Chao felt a pain in his left ribs, and the cold and fiery feeling mixed with numbness came at the same time, and his whole strength seemed to be drained by this feeling. When he opened his eyes, Bao Chao was greeted by Fu Ming Ana's hideously twisted face because he was too excited. Bao Chao lowered his head and saw Fu Ming'a holding the handle of the knife with both hands, and the front half of the short knife had already penetrated Bao Chao's body from under Bao Chao's left ribs.

Bao Chao wanted to shout loudly, but he had no strength. Bao Chao wanted to push Fu Ming'a away hard, but he didn't have the strength. At this time, Fu Ming'a let go of the handle of the knife and pushed Bao Chao away hard. In a flurry of dizziness and whirlwind, Bao Chao felt that he had thrown himself into a piece of soft ground and sunk into it. In the darkness, all of Bao Chao's senses quickly disappeared.

watched the big enemy who had humiliated him for several months enter the dung pit, and slowly sank without a struggle. A heartfelt smile of satisfaction appeared on Fumin's face. Fumina didn't want to die, at least not until he got his revenge. The assassination of Bao Chao in the toilet was planned by Fu Ming'a for more than half a month.

The unexpected sound of cannons outside the city attracted everyone's attention, and no one saw Fu Ming'a sneaking out and going straight to the toilet where Bao Chao was. Fu Ming'a was worried that he would not be able to beat Bao Chao's personal soldiers, but Bao Chao's personal soldiers took the initiative to leave the toilet. Seeing Bao Chao's drunken appearance before going to the toilet, Fu Ming'a didn't worry about fraud in the toilet at all, he rushed in directly.

As arranged by God, Fu Ming'a finally took revenge. He wanted to see more of Bao Chao, who was planted upside down in the septic tank of the dry toilet. However, the human instinct to survive is reminding Fumina that if he continues to watch, when someone comes, Fumina will die.

Glancing at Bao Chao in the dung pit in the form of an upside-down onion, Fu Ming'a ran towards the toilet.

In the past few months, the Liberation Army has privately sent people to measure the depth of the Taedong River, and as for the current erosion of the upper echelons of the Hunan Army, it is also clear that the upper echelons of the Hunan Army are now erosive. The thin-skinned ironclad ships off the coast were just able to reach Pyongyang, and the Liberation Army killed them all the way.

Things went more smoothly than expected, and the Hunan army failed to organize a counterattack at all. Under the onslaught of the Guangfu Army, the Hunan army's defense line directly collapsed. The troops easily broke through the city wall and entered the former palace where the Hunan army was entrenched. In the chaos, the recalcitrant Hunan army in the former palace was quickly killed.

The troops found a high-ranking officer of the Hunan army in the courtyard with a short knife stuck in his chest, and it seemed that he should have been killed. Curiously, the senior officer was covered in feces and smelled bad. Everyone was very strange about this, but because of the disgusting smell, no one wanted to get too close to the investigation.

Walking in the main hall was the body of Zeng Guofan, who had a bullet hole in his right temple, and judging from the black gunpowder jet marks near the hole, it was probably a suicide. Zeng Guofan's body was clean, lying straight in the middle of the hall, with a strange smile of relief on his face.
