Seeing that Zuo Zongtang was so excited. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

And it was a very clear attitude of refusing to surrender, Li Hongzhang couldn't help but blush!

What the hell are you thinking? I want to surrender and rebel!

You know, which Zhang Yun is a ninth-rate person, he is simply a mud leg, how can he compare with himself?

How dare you tell yourself to surrender to him at this moment? It's shameless!

Zuo Zongtang overthrew in anger, and after everything that could be overturned in the hall, his eyes focused on the envoy of the Patriotic Army.

Seeing this, Li Hongzhang, who still had a trace of clarity in his heart, hurriedly rushed forward to stop Zuo Zongtang's reckless move, and quickly ordered his subordinates to take the envoy of the Patriotic Army down......

It wasn't until after that person left that Zuo Zongtang stopped struggling and said, "Lord Li, you can let go of this official!" ”

Next, the two looked at each other in the county hall......

The thing to consider now is how to reply to Zhang Yun, after all, there is only one night, and Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang know very well in their hearts that Zhao Yun is definitely a person who can do what he says, and will never compromise with anyone!

If the two of them resolutely refuse to surrender, I am afraid that in the ensuing siege battle, the two of them will definitely die here.

Even each other's families, I'm afraid they can't escape him alone, Zhang Yun's viciousness and ruthlessness, that is not blown out, so many big families have been wiped out by him......

But as long as he thought of surrendering to Zhang Yun, a mud leg, neither Li Hongzhang nor Zuo Zongtang was willing.

Although both of them are extremely smart people, they grew up under the feudal system, and they have long been brainwashed successfully, successfully forgetting their ancestors and the Han family's clothes, and the stupid loyalty to the Manchu court, it is really the sun and the moon!

"Hey!"

After Li Hongzhang sighed, he spoke: "Lord Zuo, it is definitely not okay for us to sit down like this, but Zhang Yun's thief only gave the two of us one night's time." ”

"So before dawn tomorrow, we must come up with an idea whether to fight, peace, or simply go out and surrender, in short, we must have a decision, after all, it takes time to prepare!"

"Why don't we also send an envoy to Zhang Yun's thief and talk to him about the conditions for peace, such as Lord Zuo and his own official, on behalf of the court and the emperor, and give him a prince......

Zuo Zongtang sneered and said: "At this point, the entire imperial court has no troops to fight, if you lie down again......

"These thousands of miles of beautiful rivers and mountains, I'm afraid I really want to follow the surname Zhang, in this case, do you think the thief will accept our negotiation intentions? Also crowned king? I'm afraid he wants to be the emperor! ”

After listening to this, Li Hongzhang's face was blank, and his heart was also desolate, is my reign of more than 200 years in the Qing Dynasty coming to an end today?

Long.

Li Hongzhang spoke again: "Anyway, this official will never surrender to that rebel, the official will never be ruined in his old age, if any Zhang Yun insists on forcing him, this official would rather commit suicide than fall into his hands......

Zuo Zongtang glanced up at Li Hongzhang, and his eyes seemed to reveal the same meaning, anyway, no matter what, he can't surrender!

But at this time, there was a sudden commotion outside, and Zhang Yun wanted to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Shanghai.

It was decided to make one last effort, that is, while persuading Li Hongzhang to surrender to Zuo Zongtang, he sent a small group of elite troops, sneaked into the city, and used the bow and arrow mode to send Zhang Yun to Li Hongzhang their surrender letter, and shot thousands of copies of it to the defeated Manchu soldiers......

Therefore, the riot at this moment is the defeated soldiers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and almost everyone already knows what the content of Zhang Yun's letter to Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang is.

That's why the riots arose, after all, not everyone was not afraid of death, and even dared to drag their own family to die together!

Only the two old slaves, Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang, have penetrated into their bones with servile thoughts, and they will have the idea of martyrdom for the Manchu Dynasty.

And when the news came back to Li Hongzhang's ears, the tens of thousands of remnants of the defeated soldiers outside were already so emotional that they wanted to attack the Yamen!

If it weren't for the fact that Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang were usually considered to be well-being, otherwise, I am afraid that the two of them would have suffered a war disaster at this time.

Seeing that the situation was very urgent, Li Hongzhang hurriedly ordered his cronies to go out immediately to suppress the army, if he didn't suppress this defeated army, I am afraid that he would not wait until tomorrow morning, Zhang Yun would want his own life, and he and Zuo Zongtang would die in the hands of the rebels!

Seeing this, Zuo Zongtang naturally made the same choice, but fortunately, the Manchu court at this time, although it no longer had any influence.

But Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang are still a little influential, after all, both of them are also capable officials, even in this extremely unfavorable scene, Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang's cronies can't take advantage of the usual prestige of the two of them to temporarily stabilize the defeat of tens of thousands of remnants.

Of course, it's like throwing stones inside a volcano, suppressing the volcano for the time being, but waiting for the next eruption......

Still in the county hall, Li Hongzhang looked at Zuo Zongtang and said: "It seems that our plan needs to be changed when we go to the gate, and dying in the hands of Zhang Yun can indeed fulfill the loyalty of this official and Lord Zuo to the imperial court!" ”

"It's just that the remnants of the defeated soldiers who died outside, so I'm afraid I don't know how to write about the two of us in history in the future?"

After such a fuss from the remnants of the defeated generals outside, Zuo Zongtang's will to die at this moment was not so strong, so after Li Hongzhang finished speaking.

He said: "These remnants of the defeated generals have lost their loyalty to the imperial court, and now they are all forcibly suppressed by the prestige of Lord Li and their own officials, or it won't be long before they will completely break out." ”

"Therefore, the situation is already very dangerous, I am afraid that I can't wait for the sunrise tomorrow, if Lord Li and this official can't come up with another idea, the rebellion is bound to happen......"

"Therefore, the only way out now is to use these tens of thousands of remnants of the defeated generals to still fear the prestige of Li Daren and his own officials."

"Take them to break through at night, this official doesn't expect to be able to break through and continue to serve the court and the emperor, just want to die on the battlefield vigorously, Lord Li, what do you think?"

Zuo Zongtang said it to this point, and Li Hongzhang also lost his choice.

I had to walk out of the county hall with Zuo Zongtang, ready to gather all the remnants of the defeated generals and launch a decisive attack!

If you don't want to be able to break out, you must at least die on the battlefield vigorously......
