Chapter 252: Proposal

When Zeng Guofan, together with Zeng Guohua, led the forward battalion and the personal guards to the outside of the Taiping military camp, the Taiping army had been waiting in formation for a long time.

Just when Zeng Guohua and the others were in shock, they only heard one of the generals in front of the Taiping Army shouting at them: "May I ask if the one who came in front is Zeng Dashuai?"

"Put your mother's fart, how can there be any Zeng Dashuai, fake Dashuai, Lao Tzu is the vanguard general of the Qing Dynasty, Zeng Guohua is also." Zeng Guohua rode forward and shouted.

Zeng Guohua was unwilling to expose Zeng Guofan's whereabouts so quickly, and he couldn't do anything that put Zeng Guofan in danger, so denying it was the best way.

"Brother Guohua, don't come unharmed, the little brother is polite." The Taiping War General saw that it was Zeng Guohua, and he was very polite and authentic.

Hearing this, both parties should be old acquaintances.

"Who am I, it turned out to be General Guo, I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you have been promoted?" After Zeng Guohua saw the coming general, he realized that he was an acquaintance.

Yes, this Taiping general is one of the two major commanders of the Taiping Army at this time, Guo Potian.

"Hey, what's not going to be promoted, it's just a mess." Guo Potian sighed and said.

"What's the matter, General Guo is not doing well?" Zeng Guohua's heart moved.

"No, no, I'm just a little envious of Brother Guohua." Guo Potian said with a smile.

"Envy me, weishenme, what do I have to envy General Guo." Zeng Guohua was a little confused about what kind of medicine was sold in this Guo Potian gourd.

"Okay, Brother Guohua, let's talk about this matter in detail later, may I ask, did you Zeng Dashuai come with your brother this time?" Guo Potian seemed reluctant to say too much about this matter, so he changed the subject.

"No, the marshal is the master of the three armies, how can he come here, General Guo is too careful." Zeng Guohua was killed and could not admit that Zeng Guofan was in his forward battalion.

"Alas, that's a pity, I originally wanted to talk to Zeng Dashuai about the peace between your and our armies, but I didn't expect things to be so unfortunate, Zeng Dashuai didn't come with the army, it seems that we made a mistake, in this case, Brother Guohua, let's say goodbye, and we'll talk about it later." Guo Potian seemed to be very disappointed, he arched his hand towards Zeng Guohua, turned the horse's head and wanted to return to the camp.

"Wait, General Guo, please stay, what did you just say, negotiate peace? What do you mean?" Zeng Guohua said urgently.

"That's the case, since I took over the position of the commander of the Taiping Army, I have a feeling that my two armies have been fighting here for many years, both sides have been killed and wounded countless soldiers, and my heart is sad, you think, if we continue to fight, there may be more deaths, to zuihou must be a lose-loser, so that the relatives are painful, the enemy is fast, the most terrible thing is that we zuihou one is injured, one is disabled, and we can only cheapen those foreigners who are looking at the delay, so, I just thought, can you and my two armies sit down and talk about it and find a good way, to eliminate the flames of war, to restore peace to the world, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, let the country recuperate, and everyone can also concentrate on guarding against foreign invasions." Guo Potian said these things slowly, looking like a good compassionate heart.

"General Guo, do you mean to say that you are willing to surrender?" Zeng Guohua said in surprise.

"This is premature, but it does not rule out the possibility that everything can be talked about only after meeting someone who can talk about things." Guo Potian's words are very clear.

"Hmph, it's doubtful how credible your words are." Zeng Guohua is confident that he is not a person who can be fooled casually, so he will not believe that a pair of feuds that have been fighting for many years can turn enemies into friends and even join hands to fight the enemy in just a few words.

"Ha, ha, Brother Guohua, I have said it, you and I can't talk about this matter, and we still have to wait for Zeng Dashuai to come, I believe that with Zeng Dashuai's insight and vision, he will definitely understand whether what I said today is credible or not." Guo Potian hahadaxiao said.

"You..." Zeng Guohua was speechless for a while, but he began to believe Guo Potian's words a little.

"Brother Guohua, don't be annoyed, what I said is the truth." GUO Potiandao.

"Then can you represent the Taiping Army, represent your master?" Zeng Guohua is not to be outdone.

"Yes, I can represent, I am now the commander of the three armies of the Taiping Army, as for our Heavenly King, don't worry, that's not a problem, so to speak, do you understand?" GUO Potiandao.

"Who knows what kind of heart you have, if I take you to see my family's handsome, and you come to a sudden sneak attack, then won't we suffer a big loss?" Zeng Guohua felt that he was not a three-year-old child, and he was not so easy to deceive.

"Ha, ha, ha, Guohua, you are a hero in vain, you can't even tell the difference between good words and bad words, you have borne the name of this hero in vain." Guo Potian said again for a while.

"Guo Potian, what do you mean?" Zeng Guohua thought that Guo Potian was insulting himself, and said sharply.

"Brother Guohua, don't be angry, I have no malice, if you don't believe my sincerity, I can do it for you right now, and make you believe that what I said is true." Guo Potian said with a smile.

"Sincerity? Hmph." Zeng Guohua couldn't see any sincerity in Guo Potian.

"Brother Guohua, look." Guo Potian pointed behind Zeng Guohua with his finger.

Before Zeng Guohua turned around, he heard the sound of drums, and suddenly a lot of flags were erected behind them, and rows of soldiers opened their bows and arrows and aimed at them.

"Brother Guohua, don't panic, you can see again." Guo Potian pointed to Zeng Guohua's left and right again.

Zeng Guohua's left and right sides of the two fierce Taiping Army soldiers appeared, looking at that, as long as Guo Potian gave an order, Zeng Guohua's gang could immediately become a hornet's nest.

Zeng Guohua's face was as earth-colored, and he shouted at Guo Potian: "Guo Potian, what do you mean?"

"Brother Guohua, don't be impatient, don't you understand what I mean, this is my sincerity, if I want to do something to you, can you still stand here and talk to me? I just want to tell Brother Guohua that I came with sincerity, I don't know what Brother Guohua wants?" Guo Potian's words are very sincere.

"Is there sincerity pointed at by an arrow?" Although Zeng Guohua was afraid in his heart, of course, he was not afraid of his own life and death, but worried about the safety of Zeng Guofan in his array, but he still pretended to be very tough on the surface.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just want to tell Brother Guohua that we have no ill will." After Guo Potian finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the Taiping army on three sides disappeared.

Zeng Guohua saw the Taiping army retreating, and let out a breath, and then said: "It seems that General Guo is really sincere, then, how does General Guo want to talk?"

"I want to see you Zeng Dashuai." Guo Potian is very direct.

"The marshal is now moving with the army, presumably he will be able to arrive soon, if the general is really sincere, then let me go and explain the situation to our marshal first, and persuade our marshal to discuss important matters with the general, I don't know what the general wants?" Zeng Guohua's head is not so bright in normal times, it seems that this is a sentence that was spoken in a hurry.

"That's right, but I also have something to hide." Guo Potian seems to be in a difficult situation.

"If General Guo can trust me, can you tell me one or two to see if I can help." Zeng Guohua Road.

"Well, that's it, that's it, I've been friends with Brother Guohua for many years, and I don't distinguish between each other, so it doesn't hurt to talk to you. That's right, our Heavenly King has issued a strict order that I will repel your army within a month, otherwise, there is not much time for military law to be carried out, and I am afraid that I will not have time to delay it any longer." Guo Potian looked in a dilemma.

"If that's the case, then it's really embarrassing for General Guo, does General Guo think there's anything I can do to help you?" Zeng Guohua's wariness of Guo Potian has begun to slowly reced.

"If Brother Guohua is willing to help, then please be sure to tell Zeng Dashuai and ask Zeng Dashuai to give me an answer within three days, otherwise, I can't control the situation behind." Guo Potian said worriedly.

"No problem, I will definitely bring General Guo's words, and I will try my best to persuade our commander." Zeng Guohua patted his chest and said.

"Then there is Brother Lao Guohua." Guo Potian is grateful.

"Between our brothers, why be so polite, it should be, it should be." Zeng Guohua took it for granted.

"No matter what the result of Zuihou is, within these three days, our army will try to avoid fighting with your army in order to show our sincerity, please Brother Guohua to convey this to Marshal Zeng, be sure to do your best, I thank Brother Guohua in advance." GUO Potiandao.

'You're polite, you're polite, you're going to do your best, you're going to do your best.' At this time, Zeng Guohua felt that he had a bit of a villain's heart before, look at Guo Potian, how arrogant he was.

"Brother Guohua, you can turn around here, due to many reasons, I will not be far away, please understand, brother, please rest assured, there is no danger all the way, please don't worry too much." GUO Potiandao.

"Alright, we'll see you later." Zeng Guohua hugged Guo Potian with a fist.

"There will be a date later." Guo Potian is the same as holding his fists.

After the two of them finished saluting, Zeng Guohua turned his horse's head and led his forward battalion to run in the direction where the main force of the Qing army came. (To be continued.)
