Although Zhang Guoliang is full of confidence, as if Li Hongzhang must be a big man in the future, Luo Outline is always uncomfortable because of his high position and power, and he takes refuge in a little-known person, so he can't help asking: "Why didn't Master Li come?" ”

Zhang Guoliang showed a respectful look, looked to the northwest and said: "Lord Li personally went to Bozhou to recruit Zhang Lexing, I heard that you and I are familiar with each other, so I entrusted me to come and persuade Brother Outline." ”

Luo Xuan was suddenly shocked, what is Bozhou? It is the nest of the Twist Army, and the regimental training organized by Li Hongzhang has been fighting with the Twist Army for many years, and the two sides should have formed an inextricable grudge, but Li Hongzhang dared to go to Bozhou, this courage and open-mindedness made him can't help but secretly admire.

Zhang Guoliang said to himself again: "Although Lord Li is only in his thirties this year, the short-haired leader Wang Feng is only in his early twenties, who can say anything about this world." ”

Yes, when Wang Feng first joined the Taiping Army, he asked for orders to attack Zhenjiang with Luo Outline, but Luo Outline looked down on him and refused, at that time, Luo Outline really didn't treat Wang Feng as a dish, but a few years later, life and death were in Wang Feng's hands, and the impermanence of the world was indeed difficult to explain.

"Good!" Luo Xuan no longer hesitated, nodded and said, "You will raise the account with me, and immediately gather all the generals to announce this matter." With that, he walked out quickly.

Zhang Guoliang felt a little inappropriate, it stands to reason that for such a big thing as changing course, he should first notify his confidants and beloved generals, unify his thoughts, and then notify him in a circle, and get rid of the dissidents who are not of the same heart as himself, and then pay attention to confidentiality, so that it can be foolproof.

Is he confident that he has absolute control over his subordinates, or is he as reckless as ever? But at this time, Zhang Guoliang was not allowed to think about it. I could only believe that Luo Jian once came, and followed closely forward.

Under the convening of Luo Outline. In the yamen of Zhenjiang Mansion, the generals will come one after another. To tell the truth, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom fell apart, and he was trapped in a lonely city and couldn't move, no one had the confidence to confront the Democratic Alliance Army anymore, but Luo Outline was reluctant to hand over power, and let everyone accompany him to live this kind of immortal life, and many generals in the army had secretly been dissatisfied.

"General Luo summoned us, and he must surrender to the Democratic Alliance army, right?" One of the generals couldn't help but say.

"This is long overdue, and it is imperative that the NLD army sweep the world. Even the East King's subordinates and the Wing King have been co-opted, what do we insist on? Fortunately, General Luo figured it out, it's not too late! Another general followed.

"General Luo is here!" With the guess, there was a sudden exclamation, and Luo Xuan appeared from the apse, but the one who followed beside him made some people look familiar.

"Isn't this Zhang Guoliang? General Luo, how did you end up with Zhang Guoliang? Adjutant General Wu Ruxiao immediately asked.

"Ahem~~" Luo Outline sat on the tiger skin chair and coughed twice: "Let me introduce to you, this is Lord Zhang Guoliang, the assistant military affairs and chief military officer of the Jiangnan battalion." I think you all know that we have a common enmity with the Democratic Alliance, but I took the overall situation into account and sent Ruxiao to seek a way out for everyone to the Democratic Alliance. In the end, we were rejected, and since the Democratic Alliance was unwilling to give us a way to live, then we could only take refuge in the court. Lord Zhang is here today to express the goodwill of the court to our army. Now, I would like to ask Mr. Zhang to say a few words. ”

Zhang Guoliang arched his hand to the surroundings and was about to speak. Wu Ruxiao had already shouted: "Wait, General Luo, how can we surrender to the Qing Demon with the purpose of opposing the Qing Dynasty?" ”

Luo Xuan's eyes swept coldly, and he said unhappily: "If you don't descend to the court, is there any other way to live?" If you are filial, you have to say more, and then there will be a next time, and you will not be spared. ”

Wu Xiaoru's face was flushed, his eyes spurted with strong dissatisfaction, and the eyes of the generals became more and more cold, and a sense of resentment gradually spread!

What does it mean to have no way to live? How could the surrendered Democratic Alliance forces have no way to survive? Luo Outline's branch does not have much relationship with Yang Xiuqing and Wei Changhui, and its status is similar to Su Sanniang, Li Kaifang, Lin Fengxiang and others.

The first few people led their troops to join the Democratic Alliance Army, and those who had talents were hired according to their talents, and those who were promoted according to their military merits, and those with mediocre talents at least had enough food and clothing.

They do not believe that the Democratic Alliance will not accept them, nor do they believe that the Democratic Alliance will be inferior to the previous units that have taken refuge in the past, and that the promotion of the Democratic Alliance Army according to merit is relatively fair, and this point is still very popular with the military.

If the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is still there, no one will complain about fighting against the Democratic Alliance, but the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is dead, and all the soldiers will go their separate ways, but they are still in a desperate situation, and the root cause is that Luo Xuan is reluctant to let go of the power in his hands!

Today, if the Qing court is surrendered according to Luo's wishes, I am afraid that the besieging Democratic Alliance army will launch a fierce attack at the first time and completely destroy Zhenjiang and Yangzhou!

Although it is said that the uprising must be prepared to die, fight against the Qing army, and die if you die, but if you die at the hands of the Democratic Alliance, how unjust it is, not to mention that there are many people who can't accept it!

This is not the same as the situation of Hu Yihuang and Lai Hanying and other Taiping troops in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, that part of the Taiping army is Wei Changhui's subordinates, strictly counted as having an enmity with Wang Feng, and their understanding of the Democratic Alliance Army is basically at the point of hearsay, but even so, the opposition is still very large, and it took thousands of deaths to quell the turmoil, and Luo Gang's troops, directly bordering the Democratic Alliance Army, have a deeper understanding of the Democratic Alliance Army than anyone else, and now they are surrounded by the Democratic Alliance Army and surrender to the Qing court, what is the difference between this and sending them to death?

Zhang Guoliang felt in his heart, this is clearly Luo Outline has lost control of the situation, damn idiot!

In an instant, Zhang Guoliang scolded the eighteenth generation of Luo Xuan's ancestors in his heart!

Sure enough, a military marshal named Wu Dingcai took a step forward, hugged his fists and said: "General Luo, I respect you, there are some things I don't want to say in my heart, but at this time, I have to say, let me ask you, did you surrender the Qing Demon for yourself, or for our tens of thousands of soldiers?" ”

"You are presumptuous!" Luo Xuanli was poor in words and scolded!

Another person stepped forward and snorted coldly: "General Luo, with the strength of the Democratic Alliance, if you storm Zhenjiang and Yangzhou, it will be just around the corner, but he will besiege but not attack, and continue to supply food, why is this?" Don't you want to co-opt us amicably? But it's good that you rejected Commander Wang's kindness, delayed again and again, and today you want to surrender to the Qing court, have you thought about the consequences? When the NLD knows that they will attack at all costs, can we stop it? What benefits did this surnamed Zhang promise you? You are going to sell all of our tens of thousands of brothers regardless of the friendship and brotherhood of your comrades? ”

"You, you are so daring! Retire! There was a trace of fear in Luo Xuan's heart, which was clearly a prelude to the military admonition, but now, he also understood that he could not show weakness, he could only take a strong breath and suppress his subordinates with residual power!

Luo Xuan was full of majesty, and the generals who stepped on it were all fearless, and suddenly said angrily: "Someone, drag it out and cut it!" (To be continued......)
