As soon as the heat wave hit, it swept down from the gaps in the thick canopy, making every Taiping army general who entered the former Manchu Sichuan Governor's Mansion feel irritable and scorching, and under the sweat, many people fanned violently with fans.

"Come, treat everyone!" Luo Yang beckoned, and the soldiers picked up the watermelon that had just been killed in Lengshui from the corner of the house, and the kitchen knife danced, and the red flesh was bright and dazzling, which surprised all the generals.

Luo Yang's easy-going personality and hearty laughter made everyone extra free and relaxed, and the experience of frequent victories in wars has made everyone forget the grief of the death of the Wing King.

While eating watermelon, with a mouth full of water, the brothers who were eating quite indecently also started a noisy game.

"King Rui, why don't you eat it?"

"Yes, King Rui, you eat!"

Seeing Luo Yang's sudden solemn expression and thoughtfulness, everyone was uneasy.

Luo Yang smiled, "Okay, good!" ”

He was thinking about a big question. Do you want to continue to fly the banner of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Worship of God religion once swept most of China, calling on thousands of people to come forward and join the revolutionary camp of the peasants, and dealt a heavy blow to the decaying Manchu dynasty.

Finally, when everyone finished eating, the soldiers struggled to carry out several large baskets of watermelon rinds, and the generals slapped their full stomachs meaningfully, happily.

"King Rui, tell me, is there something big?" Zeng Shihe looked at the words and asked bluntly.

"Yes, King Rui, you say, if there is anything, you just have to say it, tell us to do it, and we will do it!"

"Yes, yes,"

Luo Yang observed the faces, eyes, and eyes of all the generals, speculating on their attitudes towards him, and the excitement and anxiety of suddenly becoming the number one leader coexisted.

"King Rui, you say, I will definitely listen to you, this time, our brothers listened to King Rui's words, hey, this battle is really beautiful!" Lai Yuxin hurriedly confessed his loyalty.

Luo Yang was relieved, now, the generals are unprecedentedly united, and it is a good time.

"Seniors, brothers, I want to ask a question, three years ago, Zhu Yidian and Peng Dashun's sixty-seven generals and 200,000 troops, why did they suddenly turn their backs on the Wing King and turn around and return to the east?"

Regarding the famous figures and events in the Taiping Army, the ins and outs of the phenomenon, the root causes, etc., Luo Yang has already learned in detail through Jiang Zhi and Zhao Yu and others around him.

The problem was sudden, and everyone was baffled, but seeing Luo Yang's solemn expression, he seriously imagined and thought about it.

Luo Yang named and asked everyone to say one by one, this can be opened, each expressing their own opinions, and the serious supreme military meeting has become a discussion class.

Zeng Shihe was very angry, and repeatedly asked everyone to pay attention to order and try their best to suppress the scene for Luoyang, and several other flag team commanders also maintained Luoyang's authority.

"This is a big matter of life and death for the Taiping Army on the Western Front, I hope you will think about it and say it well!"

After everyone said it, Luo Yang expressed his opinion: "It's not that the authority of the Wing King is not high, so it is insufficient, but everyone feels that there is no future!" ”

Luo Yang refuted the argument that he hated the character of the betrayer, and also denied the responsibility of the Wing King.

All the generals listened with blazing eyes, or pondered, or suspicious, or shocked, and most of them had never considered such a major issue.

In 1860, the main force of the wing king Shi Dakai was 200,000 people, separated from Shi Dakai's commander, and returned east on his own, so that Shi Dakai's troops were weak to only 10,000 people.

"Brothers, the Wing King is the most talented commander of my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but he can't win back everyone's hearts, which makes me Luo Yang deeply shocked, I have actually been thinking about this question for a long time. Why the hell! ”

No one dared to answer, because no one dared to determine the real reason, or it was inconvenient to say.

"I thought that the Wing King was loyal to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and refused to be independent and reformed, so that the generals lost the possibility of progress, and everyone was disappointed, indignant, and resentful, and finally broke out!"

Luo Yang is not surprised at all that he can be so bullish and high-sounding, he is still himself, but he has just integrated into a new environment, and he has an outstanding atmosphere. Like Hitler, a soldier in World War I, he became a world-class orator a few years later, and then seized the first place in Germany. The premise of governing a big country is like cooking a small meal, and the premise of a leader is far less complicated than we think.

"Seniors, brothers, generals, I Luo Yangde is not as good as the Wing King, my experience is not as good as you, my talent is not as good as that of a middle-aged person, but I am skilled in artillery firepower, and now, everyone has elected me as the commander, I am nervous, I can't guarantee that everyone can follow me with all their hearts."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was muffled by a roar of loyalty confession.

"King Rui! King Rui, we must follow you closely! ”

"Yes, King Rui, don't worry, we are brothers! Life and death together! ”

"King Rui! You saved the whole army, you are the benefactor of our whole army! We will never betray you! ”

Luo Yang waved his hand and quieted everyone down.

"Brothers, although you are sincere, can you guarantee that your brothers will listen to you? All the same as you? Just like Zhu Yidian, Peng Dashun and others, are they all their own intentions? Perhaps, it was more of a brother's compulsion! ”

"This? King Rui, what do you mean? "Everyone was puzzled.

Luo Yang saw that everyone supported him very much, and he didn't dare to support him, so he continued to guide: "The Wing King is not in Tianjing to lead the army to fight against the Qing Demon, why do you want to lead the army to the west independently?" ”

When everyone heard this, they discussed for a while, and under the inducement of Luo Yang, they made it clear that they were suspicious and jealous of the King of Heaven, worried about their personal safety, and further caused internal strife, so they got out to avoid trouble.

"King Rui is right, that's it."

"Yes, our king, really, cough!"

Luo Yang made a conclusion: "Seniors, brothers, the Heavenly King is narrow-minded and has no strength to tolerate people, so the Wing King led the team not to leave, this is an objective fact, right?" Therefore, I think that there is no way out to follow the Heavenly King, under the banner of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and continue to struggle! ”

"Huh?" All the eyes widened, stunned by such a terrible and true conclusion, and the generals, who were shallow in their knowledge and even mostly illiterate, were some of them simple and intuitive, and seldom penetrated into reason.

"Therefore, I, Luo Yang, and this king mean that we, the soldiers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom on the West Road, need to change our ways, change our flags, and choose a new path!" Luo Yang stared at everyone, word by word, and said solemnly.

The room became quieter and quieter, and dozens of high-ranking generals did not speak at all, not even the sound of coughing or breathing.

Suddenly, Zeng Shi and Tie stood up with blue faces, their hands already pressed on the handle of the waist knife, full of vigilance and anger: "King Rui, what do you mean?" Do you want us to betray the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and turn around and take refuge in the Qing Demon? ”

Hmm, countless eyes became fierce and fierce, staring at Luo Yang together.
