Hong Xiuquan's "Great Harmony and Small Paradise" and Lin Haifeng's "**" seem to be similar on the surface, but many officials of the Celestial Empire understand in their hearts that these are actually two different things.

In the eyes of some people, Hong Tianwang's "Great Harmony and Small Paradise" is better, it will retain the privileges that individuals should have under the guise of "equality", and the "Little Paradise" belongs more to themselves. Rolling in the mountains of knives, crawling in the sea of fire, with their heads tucked into their belts, they finally got mixed up with an official and a half-job, if they were still the same as before to engage in so-called equality with ordinary soldiers and ordinary people, these people would not be able to understand it anyway.

In northern Anhui, Wei Changhui, as the commander of the Pingwan Army, is still very interested in Lin Haifeng's fresh tricks, and it is really difficult to say how many people are gradually going against the current Celestial Empire. Without systematic and patient education, without the harsh methods of an iron fist, it is a fool's dream to build a truly invincible army and consolidate a society in such an era.

Wei Changhui felt that he had a lot of capable people under him, and now he has restored the establishment of ten armies, not to mention holding a Luzhou, even the existing prefectures and counties are impregnable, at least they can ensure that after several setbacks, they can still be grasped in their hands. But he still didn't expect that just when his mind left the battlefield he should have thought about, and he had to provoke right and wrong in order to achieve his ulterior purpose, there were also a group of people around him, who were sleeping with him and dreaming differently.

Liu Naixin knew a little bit about the undercurrents surging in private everywhere, but he still swallowed some of the words that should be said into his stomach. He also saw the kind of ending that would happen if the Celestial Empire continued like this, at first he thought that it was just King An and the others making a show for others, but as time went by, he felt that it was not the case at all. The territory of the Celestial Empire is getting bigger and bigger, and the shape is getting better and better, but this official always has a feeling of walking on thin ice. He didn't understand what he was fighting for. If it is simply for the so-called happiness of others, it is still like calling Hanako when he arrives, then why bother Hong Xiuquan, who defected to Jintian in the first place? Wouldn't it be better to sit at home and live a life that is not wealthy, but still self-sufficient?

Zhou Degui, who was relied on by the king of the north, looked for him, and Liu Naixin even knew that this Zhou Degui probably had found a lot of people, especially Li Zhaoshou, the main general of Yangzhou who had just been sent back from Yangzhou by King An, and he had been fighting with Zhou Degui recently. He believes that Zhou Degui will also spread his thoughts among these people, such as "no matter how hard you work, it is nothing more than making wedding clothes for others, and in the end, we ourselves will still be empty-handed in the Celestial Empire".

Liu Naixin can be regarded as Wei Changhui's confidant, if he has no brains, he will definitely not. However, he imagined people like Zhou Degui too much. In his heart, within the Pingwan Army, and in the area under its control, officials should have a special idea, that is, they are dissatisfied with the current actions of the Celestial Empire, so as to closely surround the Northern King, waiting for the best opportunity to change the Celestial Empire. Therefore, he still feels that it is necessary for Zhou Degui's activities.

Zhou Degui is not as good as Liu Naixin imagined. This Hui class was born, sang good songs, and was good at performing as an artist, when the Heavenly Army defeated Luzhou, he and his sworn brothers Luo Jingui and Tian Shiwen defected to the Heavenly Army together. is similar to Zhou Degui, Luo Jingui and Tian Shiwen also have their own strengths, Luo Jingui, who was born in the old way, plays the flute well, and Tian Shiwen used to be a monkey artist on the street.

The three brothers, using their respective specialties to watch the wind and steer the rudder, won the favor of the soldiers who guarded Luzhou, and at the same time earned a sesame official position for themselves. However, they had ill intentions from the beginning, and their defection to the Heavenly Army was nothing more than a temporary lurk, and when the Qing army came, they had to respond internally, and then seize Luzhou, in order to become rich.

Because Lai Hanying is not very proud of them, although they got official positions, it is just a small errand in the weaving house. Moreover, when Lai Hanying was in charge of northern Anhui, the activities of the secret agents of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Celestial Empire were rampant, which also made them feel uneasy and dare not act rashly. However, with the arrival of Wei Changhui, it brought them a huge turnaround. Wei Changhui may have intended to rectify Lai Hanying, in terms of employing people, all those who were indifferent to Lai Hanying at the beginning are now fragrant. The three Zhou Degui brothers were quickly reused.

In the defeat of the Heavenly Army's division Shouchun, because Zhou Degui and others had not had time to contact the traitor Cheng Xueqi and others properly, Zhou Degui, as a civilian staff, was extremely brave in the siege battle, and he followed behind the king of the north, his voice was hoarse, and the silver flowers of the knife dance were brilliant. Afterwards, he was deeply appreciated by the King of the North, and it turned out that this guy was still a good hand in martial arts, so Zhou Degui gave up his martial arts and became the head of the guard of the King of the North, and he never dreamed that the only new army of the Pingwan Army was under his command.

Subsequently, Luzhou was trapped, and Zhou Degui was not in a hurry to do anything to dedicate the city. He felt that his power was not big enough, and it was inevitable that there would be mistakes in a hurry, and in that case, his hard work would be in vain. Taking advantage of the trust of the Northern King, on the one hand, he arranged Luo Jingui and Tian Shiwen to the important position of military supply officers, and on the other hand, he instructed the two brothers to take advantage of the convenience of official affairs to vigorously develop the same party.

Things were too unexpected, just when they were eager to prepare for the incident, the Western Expeditionary Army turned around and killed back, and the shape of Luzhou suddenly changed. Zhou Degui had no choice but to put aside his plan for the time being.

With the development of the war, Zhou Degui was a little frustrated with the Qing Dynasty court, which he loved. The victories of the armies in the east and west are frequently reported, and the foreigners are actually submissive to be killed by the god of heaven. Anyway, he was really honest for a while. As soon as he heard that the Russians in the north had selflessly joined forces with the Qing Dynasty to help the Qing Dynasty train a new army, and a large number of Qing troops flocked south, Zhou Degui's heart and eyes became active again after a few days. The Qing Dynasty is orthodox in the end, and only by defecting to the Qing Dynasty will it have its own glory and wealth!

Now, Zhou Degui began to go into battle shirtless, personally using all kinds of excuses to persuade those powerful people who are dissatisfied with the Celestial Empire or complain. Of course, he has not forgotten that all the officers above the platoon level of the Red Army battalion under his command have been transferred out of the post that has now been renamed the guard battalion in the name of promotion, and replaced them with people he feels at ease.

Zhou Degui found Liu Naixin, he knew that the Northern King Wei Changhui may not have a good time in the Celestial Empire at the moment, if he can instigate the Northern King to turn his back on Tianjing, then his own credit will be overwhelming. To achieve this goal, you can only use Liu Naixin. Under the words, Liu Naixin is really a stomach of bitter water for the Celestial Empire, in Zhou Degui's mind, a dignified chief of staff of the Pingwan Army is not even allowed to have a decent lobby, no wonder there is no bitter water. However, before he came into contact with the actual problem, Zhou Degui understood again, not to mention the king of the north himself, even the chief of staff in front of him did not take Daqing in his eyes. As he had repeatedly eavesdropped, they were pinning their hopes on the future of Tianjing, and their ambitions were there.

When he calmed down and thought about it carefully, Zhou Degui blamed himself for being a little reckless. After all, Wei Changhui is still under the two of them in the Celestial Empire, and the Northern King Chitose is above 10,000 people. Even if you want to take refuge in the Qing Dynasty, what else can the Qing Dynasty come up with to reward people with something higher than this?

So, Zhou Degui focused on Li Zhaoshou.

Li Zhaoshou, a native of Laolou in Gushi County, Henan, because his family was poor, he became a petty thief since he was a child, and later developed into a professional habitual thief. He is physically dexterous and is said to be able to stand on bamboo poles and crawl along walls. Due to the repeated thefts in his neighborhood, and the increasing number of pigs and chickens in his family, he was repeatedly caught for this, and it became common for him to go to prison. He was first imprisoned in the mall prison, then in the Gushi prison, and later in the Huoqiu prison. His head is bald, and "thief baldness" has become his famous tuba.

In the third year of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, that is, in 1853, the peasants between the Jiang and Huai rebels revolted. With the help of the prestige of the Celestial Empire, Li Zhaoshou also gathered thousands of people and carried out activities in Lu'an, Huoshan, Yingshan, and Gushi. Due to the defeat, he defected to Lai Hanying, who entered northern Anhui.
