Chapter 157: Lord Hong died in Jiangxi

Huzhou Kefu, Zuo Zongtang said: All the thieves in the Yunhang of the Zeng State Domain have fled, and they have not heard of the correction, which is especially incomprehensible. Jinling has long been encircled, while Hangzhou and Yu have not been encircled. Jinling reported that the thieves were all killed, and Hangzhou reported that the first rebellion had come out.

If the minister wants to correct the ginseng, he also has to correct the ginseng?

If there are thieves in Guangde who do not attack, and Ningguo who does not defend without thieves, the major thieves will go against the grain and have no deterrence. The ministers repeatedly thought of it, but Zeng Guofan didn't mind indifferently.

Because of the leakage of the young rebellion, the ministers asked for the transfer of troops to attack Guangde, or because they were tired of it, so they stimulated this theory, and it is not known. The courtiers are sparse, discuss state affairs, and think they are self-righteous, but because of the disadvantages of their opinions, they become deceptive, which seems to be unacceptable.

Because the military is the most substantial, he has to distinguish it. Since then, official affairs are still handled in harmony, and the ministers dare not have a slight opinion, and they are self-respecting.

Zuo Zongtang played to Beijing, and Ci'an said Cixi Dao: Zuo Chen Zongtang folded this way, and also transferred to Jinling?

Empress Dowager Cixi said: The court is a meritorious minister, and does not want to ask for details. Zeng and Zuo are no longer separated, and this matter is over. As a top priority, the remnants of the Cantonese bandits and the chieftain Chen Decai led an army of 200,000 bandits to approach Yingshan in western Anhui; Chief Li Shixian and Chief Kang Wang Haiyang led more than 100,000 bandit troops to entrench Jianchang and Xinfeng in southern Jiangxi; More than 100,000 bandit troops of the chief Huang Wenjin and the auxiliary chief Yang Fuqing supported the puppet young king and went straight to the Ning country in southern Anhui; If the two chieftains of the plug and the auxiliary enter the Jiangxi land, they will meet the chieftains, and the two will roll together, which will be more difficult to suppress and wash. Quickly spread the edict, Yang Yuebin, Bao Chao in southern Jiangnan, Seng Greenqin in western Anhui, Zuo Zongtang in southern Anhui, the four must do their best to eliminate the remnants of all walks of life nearby.

Prince Gong Yixin said: Zeng Guofan has been neglected repeatedly, and Bao Chao, the governor of Zhejiang, has repeatedly wanted to return to his hometown to mourn, and once Bao Chao goes, the Thunder Army may not be brave.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: Yesterday, after receiving a report from Yang Yuebin, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and Shen Baozhen, the governor of Jiangxi, Yanjiang Province was ravaged by various subordinates of Fujian, and the armies fought bloody battles for many months, suffering and thieves. Fortunately, Admiral Bao Chao fought in the first battle, destroying tens of thousands of strong Kou, and the group rebelled against the cold, and the cities were conquered one after another. After Bao Chao collected and surrendered 60,000 or 70,000 people to Chen Bingwen, Dieke Jinxi, Nanfeng, Xincheng, and Thief Flame suddenly declined, and they should take advantage of the momentum of total victory and expect to be annihilated.

Empress Dowager Cixi said: Baochen is invincible in attack, this ten thousand people are not brave, and there are few in the army.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: Bao Chen has repeatedly resisted robbers, has outstanding military achievements, and the position of governor of Zhejiang seems to be thin.

The Empress Dowager Cixi smiled and said: This minister doesn't know a word, if he takes the responsibility of Xinjiang, won't he be laughing and generous. Remembering his new victory in Xu Bay, the forced landing of thieves, the stacked military exploits, and the rank of first-class light car captain, rewarded with dazzling eyes; If he insists on returning to Sichuan for funeral, he should not be forced to stay. Yang Yuebin, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, was sent to lead his headquarters to Jiangxi to control the reinforcements from Jiangxi and southern Anhui, and he was also prepared.

Yang Yuebin, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, went to Jiangxi, roared three and drank four, repeatedly attacked the Thunder Army, Bao Chao was unhappy, and said: In the past, the Thunder Department was attached to Runshuai, and fought on the battlefield, how happy, the former was sent by Zeng Guoquan, and now it is sent to Yang Hou'an, life is better than death!

Lou Yunqing, the chief soldier of Zhengding Town, said: Three years ago, Bao Shuai should return to Sichuan and Ding worry, and Di Shuai Xu opened Ningguo; Last year, ask again, Di Shuai Xu to open the East Dam; At the beginning of the year, Di Shuai promised to recover with Jinling; Today, I begged again, and Di Shuai promised to calm the river; The river is calm, and there may be Fujian, Hubei, and Guangdong, Bao Shuai doesn't need to look at people's faces, and he can return to Sichuan with peace of mind.

Bao Chao sighed and said: Yang Hou'an's army went to Ganzhou, and then discussed the clutch. Military affairs, how can it be child's play, pass on my military order, temporarily rest in Jianchang for a while, and then suppress the remnants of the chieftain.

Yang Yuebin, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, was busy with the war, and after more than a month in Jiangxi, Fang and Jiangxi governor Shen Baozhen gathered to discuss the current situation.

Yang Yuebin said: Just let me serve as a frontier and point out my peers, I can't bear it.

Shen Baozhen said: Brother Hou'an came to the battle array, standing and soaring, like a ghost. In the fifth year of Xianfeng, the battle of Chenglingji was more than 200 miles away from the thief's nest in three days. The six-year battle of Jiujiang was a thousand miles back and forth in ten days. Seven years of Chaoxian battle, more than a month to fight, but also more than a thousand miles. On the speed of going to the plane, the ancient name will not be. For those who are like my peers, my brother will be dispatched, why can't I bear it?

Yang Yuebin said: In terms of military merits, Bao Junmen bravely crowned the whole army; If it is in the center of the obstruction, I am also afraid.

Shen Baozhen said: By chance, Bao Gong is not good at martial arts, so he is dull from the threshold of the military gate; For half a year, Bao's father-in-law forgot his selfishness, fought bloodily, killed decisively, repeatedly destroyed the enemy, and the heart of the Hou'an brother relaxed.

Yang Yuebin said: Jiang Yili, Yang Changjun, Guo Songlin, Liu Mingchuan, etc., with the momentum of driving tigers and wolves, drove Hong Tianzhen, Hong Renji, Huang Wenying, Li Yuanji, Fan Ruzeng, Tan Tiyuan and other bandits from Zhejiang to Anhui, and then from Anhui to Jiangxi; This large group of rebels, if they go south to join the two chiefs of Kang, there will be endless troubles. I intend to immediately invite Zeng and Zuo Ermarshal to send a powerful army to help quickly. In Jiangxi, the generals must be ordered to prohibit, and those who violate discipline and bend the law will be severely punished. Taoist Xi Baotian, the reinforcement of Nanfeng is not effective, and the military aircraft is delayed, and he will be impeached immediately.

In that compartment, the young lord Hong Tianguifu, the god king Hong Renji, the king Huang Wenjin, the auxiliary king Yang Fuqing, the king of Yang Li Mingcheng, the first king Fan Ruzeng and others entered the Ning country from Guangdefu, and suddenly the Chu army attacked, Huang Wenjin was unprepared and was killed by the artillery.

The Taiping army suddenly lost its main general, and the army's morale was in turmoil.

Ganwang Hong Renji hurriedly said: Qi Yu Young Heavenly King, although the king is dead, Huang Wenying, the king of Zhao, has been on the battlefield for a long time, and the king Huang Penghou is the first in the war, and people give the nickname Little Tiger, this fierce army can still be relied on.

The young lord obeyed the plan, and ordered Huang Wenying, the king of Zhao, to lead the whole army, and Huang Penghou, the king of the kings, was the commander of the southern army and the pioneer.

Auxiliary King Yang Fuqing sighed, led his own troops, and walked away.

Huang Wenying also did not force to stay, supervised the generals, protected the young master, attacked the Hunan army in front, rejected Chu Yong, tossed and turned for more than a month, and finally arrived in Shicheng, Jiangxi on October 6, less than 200 miles away from the place where King Kang Wang Haiyang was entrenched.

The alternate prefect Xi Baotian detected it, made meritorious contributions, and attacked at night. As soon as the cannon sounded, the Taiping army was crushed. Xi Baotian effortlessly captured and killed more than 2,000 people including the Young Heavenly King Hong Tianguifu, the Ganwang Hong Renxuan, and the Zhao King Huang Wenying.
