Zuo Zongtang was hurt by the two Heavenly Army soldiers behind him, and the braids on his head felt like they had been torn off. He also heard the miserable cries of Zeng Guobao beside him. Now, he could only close his eyes tightly, not daring to look at the crowd below, to be honest, he really felt a kind of shame in his heart.

The hand that the Taiping Army is playing with right now is really too powerful. They are deliberately showing this kind of posture, telling everyone, who said they are anti-hole? It is clear that they are the ones who are truly defending the image of saints. They are the saviors of the entire Han nation.

At this moment, Zuo Zongtang was also scared. He was afraid of being put to death like this. originally thought that even if he died on the battlefield, he would at least be able to win the reputation of a Confucian and Mencian defender and be recited by future generations. But now, he has become a big traitor who is anti-Confucius and Mencius and the anti-Han nation, and I am afraid that he will be infamous for a thousand years!

Yang Fuqing waved his hands and motioned for the crowd in the audience to calm down, "Fathers and brothers, what the Celestial Empire wants to build is a beautiful paradise where the world is harmonious and all people are equal. For ordinary people, the Celestial Empire does not require everyone to immediately restore the clothes of the Han family, because there must be a process of acceptance of everything. The hateful Qing demon has made many of our fathers and brothers completely forget what the Han people should have, and it can be forgiven. But they can't. ”

Yang Fuqing pointed to the prisoners kneeling behind him, "They all claim to be educated, full of scriptures, and disciples of Confucius and Mencius, and their ugly faces have been painted by painters. Several Qing demon lackeys of the Zeng family, as well as this Liu Rong, as well as Luo Zenan, Li Xubin and others, who were previously killed by the Heavenly Army, as representatives of the traitors in Xiangxiang, will be cast into iron statues, and will always kneel in front of the Temple of Literature to confess their sins to their ancestors. As for those local tyrants, they can only be punished for guarding the soul of Emperor Yan, they are not even qualified to kneel, they are only worthy of being at the foot of the tomb of Emperor Yan, as a stepping stone for everyone to visit the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yan, and will be trampled by thousands of people forever to warn future generations. This is what happens when you are a traitor! Tsang Kwok Wong"

This judgment conference went on for a long time. With one prisoner by one, or in the hearts of the people in the audience, there were people who had admired, envied and feared, and were dragged to the execution ground to have their heads cut off. Especially listening to Zeng Guobao's miserable cry of "Please beg the heavenly army to spare my dog's life, I know that I am wrong, I will never be a traitor, I will immediately grow my hair and cut my braids", which made the hearts of the onlookers tremble. Understand and not understand, at least everyone has already understood, what is a Han and what is a traitor.

In the following days, the people who were allocated the land were even more arrogant, and they would not hope that the Zeng Guo clan would come back if they were killed. When they returned, the land they had just acquired was about to be recovered, because the original title deed of the land had already been burned in public, and now in their hands was a new title deed stamped with the great red seal of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the name on it was written in a dignified manner.

Of course, there are still many rumors that have slowly spread, all of which are unfavorable news for those families who have followed Zeng Guofan out to serve as soldiers. The most important thing is that it is said that the Heavenly Army will clear them out of Xiangxiang at a certain time. Don't you believe it? Anyway, Zeng Guofan's family was imprisoned, and since he was the biggest traitor, of course he should be killed and left alone, and the simple people would think so. When dealing with rebels, not all emperors want to destroy other people's nine clans, and people will destroy you in turn, which is naturally natural.

The best way out is to escape first. Where do you go if you run away? It's strange that the Heavenly Army can actually tell you that Zeng Guofan is in Zhuzhou and is trapped in a lonely city. Then go to Zhuzhou and secretly find the family members who were soldiers. In the past, I used to be a soldier in order to earn some money to support my family, but now I see that no one has gone to serve as a soldier, and even those who have been captured have been put back, and there are still people in charge of the family, so it is strange that these people are not angry.

From Xiangxiang to Zhuzhou, a continuous flow of people has been formed. At first, seeing the heavenly army building barracks and digging various trenches outside Zhuzhou City, people also tried every means to avoid and bypass. Later, I slowly felt that the Heavenly Army seemed to ignore them at all, so I became more and more bold, and in the end, I simply passed through the Heavenly Army camp and ran towards Zhuzhou City one after another.

Zhuzhou is in chaos. The chaos was so bad that Zeng Guofan strictly ordered that no one should be allowed to enter Zhuzhou again.

Under the city of Zhuzhou, there is a cry of calling for children and asking for husbands.

Shi Xiangzhen in Xiangtan City is happy, if you don't say that the Yiwang brothers can be kings, it is Shengming, what is the siege of the city, or this method of attacking the heart is better. Zeng Guofan, Zeng Guofan, Lao Tzu asked you to taste it this time.

"I ordered to go down, to provide water and food to the fathers and brothers stationed in the city in time, and to invite them all to come back and live in the camp when it is late, especially for the women, we must be extra protecting." Shi Xiangzhen meticulously instructed Lan Chengchun, who was in charge of the Zhuzhou battlefield.

Lan Chengchun grinned, "Guozong, how long will it take to fight like this, where is there a neat attack." ”

"Haha" Shi Xiangzhen laughed, "Your Highness said that Hunan is a good place to replenish soldiers, and it must win the hearts of the people." If you slow down here, you'll be able to play more smoothly and faster in the future. Han Xin made an embattled song for the overlord of Chu back then, so let's give him an eight-sided Xiangyin and cry to death Zeng Guofan. When the news of the loss of Hengzhou was received again, he was finished, and Lao Tzu told him to cry and couldn't find the temple gate. ”

Hou Yutian and Liu Xihe's 2,000 men arrived at a village on the western outskirts of Hengzhou at dusk the next day.

That night, they cordoned off the entire village, repairing the team, and on the other hand, going door to door to find out the situation in the city of Hengzhou, especially the specific location of the Hunan army's shipyard and naval barracks in Hengzhou. After repeated mobilization, a few villagers who were familiar with the situation were invited to be guides.

Early the next morning, Liu Xihe took a dozen relatives, disguised as firewood sellers, mixed among the people, and walked towards the west gate.

More than a dozen Hunan soldiers at the gate of the city were staring wide-eyed, carefully checking the passers-by, and from time to time shouting at those traders who were reluctant to pay the cents. These are all personnel recruited by Zeng Guofan to prepare for training to the water camp. The reason why they conducted such a detailed investigation was not because they were afraid that some long-haired spies would infiltrate the city, but because they were afraid of letting a businessman go. Zeng Guofan's orders are being strictly carried out by them, regardless of land and water, those who do business must pay a certain toll.

When he was about to approach the city gate, Liu Xihe deliberately slowed down, he wanted to ask the people in front of him to leave the city gate first, so that it would be convenient for him to do it himself. At this moment, a gong sounded from inside.

Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. The concubine of Hengzhou prefect Lu Chuanying has not moved since she entered the door for more than a year, and a few days ago she first asked a famous fortune teller to ask for a hexagram. The blind half-fairy told her that she wanted to go out of the West Gate, go to the Dai Temple in Hengshan, burn incense and make a wish for the mother who sent the child, and then enter the East Gate when she came back, so that she could not only have a child in the future, but also be rich and noble to accompany their mother and son. This little concubine really did so, who would have thought that only two months had passed, and she felt heavy in her body, and she invited a doctor to take a look, and she was really happy. The concubine was happy, and Lu Chuan should accompany her to Dai Temple on the fifteenth day to repay her vows.

The concubine is happy, for Lu Chuanying, who only has a few daughters and has not yet half a son, of course, it is also great news, and he is naturally happy to love the concubine's wish. So, I got up early in the morning to clean up and go out of the west gate according to the meaning of my concubine.

As soon as he saw the prefect's guard of honor, the chief sitting on the stone pier at the city gate quickly stood up, blasted open the people blocked in the hole of the city gate, and flashed aside with a smile, intending to respectfully invite the prefect out of the city. Nazhi turned his face and looked, and more than a dozen unknown firewood sellers rushed up in a mess.
