In the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Meng Deen was a mysterious and invisible man.

Later historians know very little about him, but this person was the most important figure in the middle of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and it can even be said that he was the person who was really in charge of the government, and he was the most favored and trusted by Hong Xiuquan, which is a very unreasonable thing to some extent.

Although he is an old brother in Guangxi, he is not Hong Xiuquan's team, and as we all know, he is not a genius person, he is very ordinary, but Hong Xiuquan is close to this old minister, and after the expedition of King Yi, under his instruction, the ministers of the heavenly kingdom elected Chen Yucheng, Li Xiucheng and Meng Deen to preside over the government.

Although Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng are very young, they can be said to be the real young heroes in the kingdom of heaven, but Mengdeen is different, although he is an old minister, but he has not made any great achievements, the only reason for being elected is the instruction of the king, and the grace of his mother will last all his life.

You must know that Hong Xiuquan is a very suspicious person, not to mention the Lianghu brothers, that is, the Liangguang brothers are often suspicious of Hong Xiuquan, like the famous Huang Wenjin, he is the most famous general in the late period of the Heavenly Kingdom, after the collapse of the Heavenly Kingdom, he almost supported the overall situation of the Heavenly Kingdom, fought in the south and the north, without any soldiers, I don't know how much territory was laid for the Heavenly Kingdom, but he didn't even have the right to directly play and fold to the Heavenly King, all documents had to be transferred by the Ganwang, and he couldn't use the local money and grain in Huzhou to be stationed in Huzhou. It can be said that it has never been trusted by the king.

Even a pillar of heaven like Li Xiucheng is still suspicious of the Heavenly King, and only this mysterious Meng Deen. He always loved the grace of the Heavenly King, and even after his death, the succeeding King Youzan could become the central figure of the Heavenly Kingdom. It is ranked in the top 10 in the kingdom of heaven.

In the era when Meng Deen was in charge, the Heavenly King completely let go of Meng Deen, who was neither a member of the Hong clan nor his real team. You must know that he has always only believed in the Hong family, Hong Renji arrived in Beijing for a month, Hong Xiuquan named him as a godking and military advisor, but he has no blood relationship with Hong Xiuquan, and there is only one such character in the first life of the Heavenly Kingdom.

Most of what historians know about Meng Deen comes from a letter written by King Youzan to his hometown father and elder when he missed his hometown. From this letter, historians have obtained fragments of Monten's grace, but they still cannot understand why Monten's favor was favored by the king.

In fact, the reason why Meng Deen was able to receive the favor of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan was entirely because he built a bridge between the kingdom of God and the world, and only this Meng Deen could understand the fusion between the two, and he was both popular and popular. also knew that Hong Xiuquan had single-handedly built the wonderful kingdom of God, so Hong Xiuquan affectionately called Mengdeen's name: "But the red thief failed to attack the city again?" As I said, Tianjing is the kingdom of heaven on earth, and God will not sit idly by and save us, as long as the brothers are united. Heavenly Father will naturally send heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals to descend to earth! ”

Meng Deen knelt on the ground for a long time, and only after a long time did he say the words from the bottom of his heart: "Heavenly King, there is no need to say these words, at this point, even if the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals go down to earth, it is useless, I am invited by Li Xiucheng today, please let the Heavenly King let the city not leave as soon as possible!" ”

"You!"

Hong Xiuquan was so angry that he was about to vomit blood because of such a betrayal, and he said with a blue face: "Don't you believe me either?" I saw God with my own eyes in a dream! ”

Meng Deen is usually the most proficient in these sacred books of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he not only memorizes the New Testament and the Old Testament in the Bible, the four Gospels, but also is extremely proficient in the printed books made by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom itself, in the world of the Kingdom of God, he is almost the only person who can communicate with Hong Xiuquan, but now he feels that the Kingdom of God has collapsed: "Heavenly King, let the city not go is the only life of our Kingdom of Heaven, let's go!" At least there are more than 100,000 of us in northern Anhui! ”…,

"Nonsense! Sling the bull! Hong Xiuquan angrily pointed to Meng Deen's nose and said: "400,000 heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals are about to descend to earth and baptize this world with holy light, and Christ is about to come back ......."

It's just that Meng Deen said firmly: "Hong Huoquan, you have deceived so many people, do you still want to deceive yourself?" ”

This sentence made Hong Xiuquan stunned for a moment, his real name is Hong Huoquan, and no one has called him that for more than ten years, he said after a while: "You also know that I am lying to myself? ”

After saying that, he burst out laughing, and his smile was so desolate: "But you don't know, I don't know if I'm lying to myself, I can't tell the difference......"

After more than ten years of dreamy career, he couldn't tell which ones were real dreams and which ones were his imaginary kingdoms, he was not only deceiving himself, but also deceiving everyone, and the seriousness of the result was even beyond his own imagination: "Then you usually lie to me?" I thought you really believed it! ”

"I really believe it!" Meng Deen told Hong Xiuquan: "Believe once, be saved forever!" Heavenly King, now is the time to make up your mind, let's let the city go, there is still a glimmer of life in northern Anhui, and there are still tens of thousands of brothers and sisters in Tianjing City! ”

"How can it be so simple, because the overlord of Chu refuses to cross Jiangdong, I also know!" Hong Xiuquan felt that he was already riding a tiger: "If we don't let the city go now, maybe we will never be able to return to Tianjing City, and no one will return to our Guangxi again!" ”

When the Kingdom of Heaven came out of Guangxi, there were 20,000 men and women, and now the remnants of the meritorious old ministers, even Hong Xiuquan doesn't know how many remain, but Meng Deen has his own thoughts: "Li Xiucheng said that when you go to northern Anhui, there will be at least a small Heavenly Kingdom, at least Chen Yucheng and Liu Xuanlin will take them, and in Tianjing, there will be nothing!" ”

Meng Deen's tears fell, his incompetence is true, it is also true that the heavenly kingdom was in chaos during his reign, but he is a person who loves the old after all, and the later Youzan King also followed this tradition, and brought a family letter to his relatives in his hometown thousands of miles away, and this Youzan Wang's family letter has become one of the most important historical materials for the study of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom: "There are still thousands of old brothers and sisters in Tianjing City, these meritorious old ministers have followed the King of Heaven to Tianjing, and the King of Heaven must give them an explanation!" Besides, even if he doesn't give them an explanation, the king of heaven has to give an explanation to his family! ”

Although the king of heaven is a heavenly man, in a sense, he is a person who loves his clan very much, so that to the extent of paranoia, in the later years, because the king of Youxi is his nephew, he let this fourteen or fifteen-year-old child become the top five in the kingdom of heaven, and participate in the important decisions of the kingdom of heaven, and the same decision-making of the affairs of the kingdom of heaven with the king of the young west, in addition to his two half-brothers, are a group of excessively young Hong clan relatives, at most in their twenties, so the words of Meng Deen hit the key point of Hong Xiuquan: "Let the city not go...... Don't let the city go, just like this, how can I explain to them! ”

Tianjing is the heavenly kingdom on earth of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and it is the core and key to the belief in the heavenly kingdom.

Meng Deen had only one sentence: "Heavenly King, go!" ”

"There is a glimmer of life when we go, there are tens of thousands of our brothers in Jiangbei, and Zhang Luoxing has always had an alliance relationship with us, he still has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, we can unite with him, and naturally become a small heavenly kingdom!"

Hong Xiuquan finally relieved his clan: "It's okay, if not for anything else, just for my unsuccessful son and daughter, let's go!" ”

"Go to Jiangbei!" Hong Xiuquan regained the self-confidence of a heavenly man: "My heavenly kingdom must be reborn from the fire after nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties!" ”

He pressed his hand on Meng Deen's shoulder: "As for Tianjing, I'll leave it to you!" ”…,

Since Meng Deen saw through that this kingdom of God was just a dream bubble, he couldn't follow himself and let the city go!

He is a man of heaven.

Murajoviv roared vigorously on the map: "Send troops to China, St. Petersburg is crazy...... I'm not crazy! ”

The order issued by St. Petersburg to the Governor-General of Eastern Siberia was clear: since St. Petersburg had already provided an infantry corps to the Far East, the Governor-General of Eastern Siberia should fulfill his promise to decisively wage war against China, at least taking advantage of the incomparably fragile opportunity of the Qing Dynasty to obtain the richest piece of the Qing Dynasty's territory.

For this "yellow Russia" plan, Murajoviv used to be the staunchest supporter, but now the situation has changed, he no longer insists on war against China, but asks for contact with the rainbow army, otherwise the Russian Empire, even if it occupies one or two territories in the east, will become dangerous in the attack of the Chinese.

He didn't know if the big guys in the country were crazy, and he admitted that he had given them false information and too much confidence, but the facts were already in front of them.

The most powerful French army in the world, even with more than one division, fought to a draw with the rebels near Shanghai, and the newspapers carried full-page reports of the most serious defeat of the French army since the Waterloo War, with thousands of French soldiers groaning in pools of blood.

As the biggest victim of this operation, the Russian expeditionary force was almost devastated, and less than 200 of the 4,500 expeditionary force he sent to Shanghai returned to the Far East, including 76 deserters, and the capture camp of the Rainbow Army already had thousands of Russian prisoners, and even more than half of the battalion of the Russian Expeditionary Force surrendered to the Rainbow Army.

In addition to this, in the Shanghai Concession, a thousand Russian expeditionary forces were disarmed en masse by the treacherous French and the British, and according to information obtained through some grapevines, in exchange for the cooperation of the Chinese, the British were even ready to hand over these poor expeditionary forces to the murderous infidels.

In this case, what did the Russian Empire take to go on an expedition to China and realize the grand ambitions of Yellow Russia? (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
