Xianfeng saw that they were silent, Ming Zhe protected himself, smiled self-deprecatingly, and whispered Zeng Guofan's recital: "The minister's whole army went south, and Ben Si drove out of the country to fight a decisive battle with the anti-thieves, but because of the long-haired southward attack, the Hunan army was repeatedly defeated, Jingzhou, Wuchang, and Yueyang could not be rescued quickly, and the thief atmosphere in Jiangxi could not be swept quickly...... It is to endure humiliation and steal life, while bowing down to sin, while striving to remedy it. ”

Su Shun saw Xianfeng reading while writing a comment on the fold, fearing that Zeng Guofan's catastrophe was coming, so he knelt down and persuaded: "The emperor thinks twice, although Zeng Guofan was defeated once, his crime is not to death, please ask the emperor to give him another chance to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Xianfeng showed the finished recital to the minister, smiling silently.

I saw that there were only eleven words on it: I don't understand this performance, how can I be stunned? It turned out that Xianfeng thought that Zeng Guofan did have some ability through this incident, and he did not intend to blame him heavily.

"Your Majesty, it's an eight-hundred-mile rush in Hunan Province!" Ruihua took the fold that had just arrived in Hunan, glanced at it, and presented it to Xianfeng.

Xianfeng trembled his hands, opened the fold, and was prepared for the fall of Changsha in his heart, looking at it, he laughed, and said in his mouth: "Zeng Disheng lives up to my expectations!" Look at ...... too."

Chen Luo Bingzhang played: Although the Hunan army was defeated in Baling County, it was brave after knowing the shame, one, the yellow flag tower Qibu beheaded the pseudo-prime minister Zeng Tianyang in Changsha; Second, Zeng Guofan defeated more than 30,000 people of Changmao's water and land divisions in Xiangtan, and successively recovered Xiangxiang, Changde, and Yueyang...... In addition, Admiral Bao Qibao attacked lightly and lost his troops......

Zhao Laoqi is becoming more and more familiar with intelligence work, and he is the first to know about the major events that have occurred throughout the country, which makes him feel a sense of fluttering, and his power is constantly expanding, recruiting beggars, **, deaf and mute, who are not valued by the Qing army, and educating them that the reason why they suffer is caused by the Manchu Dynasty's injustice, and then promising them some benefits, instilling the idea of expelling the Tatars and restoring China, can make them more energetic in collecting intelligence.

"Your Highness, this is about the battle between the Hunan army and the Taiping army."

Li Yunzhong looked at it seriously, and a few days ago, he saw Shi Dakai advancing vigorously, as if Hunan was within reach, and he was very worried that the power of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would swell and compete with him for Jiangxi and Jiangnan.

Now it's okay, the Taiping army won first and then lost, and retreated all the way back to Wuchang to hold on, with mixed feelings in his heart: "Do you know why Hong Xiuquan recalled Shi Dakai?" ”

Zhao Laoqi collected the most information about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and knew a lot about it, and replied: "It's because Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing are fighting for power in Chongqing and are at a disadvantage, so they want to recall Shi Dakai to balance Yang Xiuqing!" ”

Li Yunzhong sighed, the good situation was gone because of Hong Yang and the two of them, and he couldn't help asking, "What are the two of them doing?" ”

Zhao Laoqi thought of that kind of scene, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Hong Xiuquan fell in love with a beautiful woman, so he accepted her as a princess, who knew that Yang Xiuqing also fell in love with that woman, and under the pretext that Heavenly Father went down to earth, Hong Xiuquan was severely scolded with a rod, and that woman was also taken to live in the East Palace." ”

For a woman? Li Yunzhong secretly scolded Hong Xiu for being useless, how could he say that he was also his 'student', how could he be so cowardly, he couldn't even protect his own woman.

Zhao Laoqi complimented: "Your Highness has foresight, the Hunan army is really different from the green battalion, and it is really surprising that it can defeat the Taiping army head-on with the same number of people!" ”

Li Yunzhong put down the information and said: "Jiang Zhongyuan's Chu Yong is in the same vein as the Hunan army, but I am afraid that the Hunan army will be completely reborn after this battle, I don't know if they will attack Sichuan in the west or Jiangxi in the east to relieve the siege of Nanchang?" By the way, Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang's Northern Expeditionary Army heard that they were taken out? ”

Zhao Laoqi tried hard to keep up with Li Yunzhong's thinking, and after thinking about it, he said: "Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang's Northern Expeditionary Army still has more than 8,000 people, and they are on their way to Nanjing, but they claim that they only came to Nanjing to meet His Royal Highness the King of Han, and they will return to Sichuan to resume their lives in the coming day. ”

Back to Sichuan? Li Yunzhong felt funny, and worked hard to rescue you, just to let you go back to Sichuan! These 8,000 Guangxi veterans can expand three armies! How can you let it go so easily.

"When they arrive in Nanjing, isolate the generals above the division commander from the army, dry them for a few days, and then bring them to me, and if they are stubborn, they will be ...... Send back to Hubei, however, the army must stay! Li Yunzhong thought for a moment and commanded.

Since it was determined that Zuo Zongtang would be in charge of the southern expedition, the Hunan people and horses could be said to have made enough efforts to stuff people into the southern expedition army, with many names, and even Li Xuan, the director of the Ministry of Rites, joined Zuo Zongtang's shogunate in the name of joining the army.

Zuo Zongtang persuaded Lu Jianying, who was still talking, "Brother Lifu, if you stuff people in again, there will be no one to run errands in Nanjing, and I can't explain to His Highness!" ”

Chang Dachun also felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and explained: "Lifu is also worried that you won't be able to control those arrogant generals, besides, if these literati backbones are arranged to serve in Zhejiang, it will be beneficial and harmless!" ”

Lu Jianying waved his hand and said: "What Ji Gao said makes sense, forget it, these twenty or so people are enough, so as not to let the Gui family say that Ji Gao will only be nepotistic, which will make His Royal Highness the King of Han unhappy." ”

Zhao Liewen worried: "There is another group of people in this Nanjing city, and all of them are from Guangxi, if the King of Han absorbs them, the strength of the Gui family will be greatly enhanced, and we still have to find a way to resolve it." ”

The camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army was personally arranged by Yang Jinlong, the prefect of Nanjing, who knew these people the best, and was very strange about their words and deeds: "It is the first time I have seen such an obedient army, staying in the barracks all day long, and the soldiers who go out to buy things still pay, never causing trouble, others bullied them to the head, and they also apologized to people, what kind of law did you say this Hong Xiuquan applied to them to make them so obedient?" ”

Zuo Zongtang recalled something and explained: "I heard that when the King of Han and Hong Xiuquan raised troops, the military discipline was particularly strict, and the slightest violation was executed, so the soldiers from Guangxi developed these habits, but the soldiers from Guangxi could not do it. ”

……

Chen Yucheng said to Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang: "His Royal Highness the King of Han is discussing state affairs, I don't have time to see you, you better go back!" ”

Li Kaifang had already found out Chen Yucheng's background, and flattered: "This little general, I am very familiar with your uncle Chen Chengying, I used to be buddies and take care of each other, so you can report it again, and say that we want to go back to Sichuan, and ask King Han to let us go." ”

Chen Yucheng rolled his eyes, he had never heard his uncle talk about them, for the sake of the same Guangxi people, it was not easy to drive them away, only good words to persuade him, "It is useless for you to do this, the king of Han is very angry with what you have done, and often says that you don't know the current affairs, and you almost killed you in Changsha at the beginning." ”

Lin Fengxiang listened to him rummag through the old accounts, and hurriedly explained: "Please tell the King of Han that we had no intention of harming His Highness in Changsha at the beginning, we just wanted to open the city gate to receive the heavenly army into the city, and we had no second thoughts!" ”

"You better find someone else, you see that I am so young, and I also know that there is no place for Lu Dao to speak in front of King Han, like Li Xiucheng, Zhang Suimou, Lin Daji and others are different, you should still find them!" Chen Yucheng really didn't want to entangle with them, so he pointed out the 'clear way' for them, so he entered the Han Palace.

Chen Yucheng entered Li Yunzhong's study and reported: "Your Highness, they have left!" ”

Li Yunzhong estimated that it was almost the same, and said to Chen Yucheng: "You let them come over tomorrow, remember to let all the generals above the division commander come over." If they didn't want to stay in Nanjing, they were sent directly to the ship. ”

……

The three more begged for collection, Xie Lu thanked Wu Huaxia for his valuable opinions and so many materials, and Xiaolang was grateful.
