Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Chenzhou brigade finally joined forces with the Xiwang and Yiwang troops in Changsha.  After a lot of red tape, Hong Xiuquan led the civil and military officers of the Kingdom of Heaven, including the East King Yang Xiuqing, the West King Xiao Chaogui, the North King Wei Changhui, and the Wing King Shi Dakai, to offer sacrifices to the Heavenly Father as usual.

    The memorial text was written by Hong Xiuquan himself and read aloud by him himself. While reciting the memorial text, Xiao Yungui took a peek and saw Hong Xiuquan's pious face, his eyes full of reverence, and his hands meticulously holding the memorial text.  , the tone of the chanting is peaceful but firm, and the voice is rich and powerful, which makes people feel indescribably comfortable after listening to it, and at the same time, they have more respect for the God they admire.

    Thinking about it, this should be the case. As the founder of the God-Worship Cult, Hong Xiuquan preached and preached doctrines everywhere. If his voice was not contagious, it seemed impossible to gather so many believers.  His piety also infected everyone. After the memorial was burned, the people in the audience shouted long live the Heavenly Father.  Hong Xiuquan's interest did not diminish, so he talked to the soldiers and civilians on the stage.

    Xiao Yungui did not expect that Hong Xiuquan would come on stage to preach truth in person, but what he heard was "Yuan Dao's Awakening of the World". This document was together with "Yuan Dao's Salvation Song", "Yuan Dao's Awakening of the World" and "Baizheng Ge"  " and other documents were all written by Hong Xiuquan, and were all included in the "Edict of Taiping", which was published and published in Yong'an at the beginning of the year. Xiao Yungui also had a copy of the "Edict of Taiping", but he had never read it.

    "It has always been said that if blessings are large, they will be large, and if blessings are large, they will be great; if blessings are small, they will be small, and if they are small, they will be small. Therefore, Mount Tai does not ignore the soil, so it can reach its height; rivers and seas do not choose small streams, so they can reach its depth;  The king does not exclude the common people, so he can achieve his virtues. All these are measured. It is difficult to describe it as it is today! The world is so perverse, people's hearts are thin, and what they love and hate are all motivated by selfishness."

    Hong Xiuquan spoke at a moderate speed. Fortunately, what he said was not too difficult. Xiao Yungui understood clearly. Hong Xiuquan was talking about the selfishness of human nature. There was a long paragraph that followed that was hard to understand. Why did the same country use this to save this country and this country?  There are people who hate the county, the province, the prefecture, the county, the province, the prefecture, the county, and hate this province, this prefecture, this county. After hearing the last word of the world, people¡¯s hearts are so high that they can¡¯t stand each other, fight each other, and kill each other.  Xu Yi will die!  Without him, its appearance is small, so its quantity is small.

    Xiao Yungui seemed to understand. Hong Xiuquan said that fighting and killing each other was because human nature was selfish, but he didn't take it seriously. People in later generations are even more selfish. Human nature is inherently selfish. Is there anything strange about it.  After that, a long section tells about the style of the ancient times when Yao and Shun ruled the world, and how people loved each other at that time.  Xiao Yungui also dismissed it. During the time of Yao and Shun?  Who can tell what happened thousands of years ago?  Eighty percent of it was made up by Lao Hong himself.  In short, this article is all about persuading people to do good and promoting the ideal of the world being one family and sharing peace.

    After finally finishing speaking, Xiao Yungui became a little impatient and secretly laughed in his heart. Here they preached that the world is one family and share peace, but then they turned around and immediately killed those wealthy families and bannermen. It was still like what the Kingdom of Heaven preached.  These people are all monsters and ghosts, and they are all people who deserve to die. Therefore, they are monsters and not humans.

    After Hong Xiuquan finished explaining his reasoning, he motioned to Lu Xianba, his left palm, to continue reasoning. Under the guidance of Xiao Yungui, he took square steps and walked into the governor's office.

    The governor¡¯s office had long been cleaned up by Xiao Yungui¡¯s orders and decorated with lights and colorful decorations. However, Hong Xiuquan seemed dissatisfied. He frowned and said, ¡°This is a clean and evil government office, and the evil spirit is quite strong. It needs to be rectified.¡±

    ????

    Yang Xiuqing's question was directed at Xiao Yungui. Xiao Yungui suddenly understood that Hong Xiuquan disliked the old governor's office and did not want to live here.  After secretly cursing a few words, Xiao Yungui smiled slightly and said: "Exactly, this is a place for the fourth brother to handle military and political affairs. The second brother's residence has other arrangements."

    Hong Xiuquan chuckled, waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as there is a roof to cover your head, it will be fine. There is no need to bother the Korean compatriots to look elsewhere."

    Xiao Yungui said slowly without blinking: "The King of Heaven is the lord of the Kingdom of Heaven, and he controls all people on behalf of the Heavenly Father and the Emperor. How can he live in a simple place? There is a mansion of Huang Mian, a former official of Qingyao, in the city. There are seven entrances and seven exits.  Courtyard, my younger brother ransacked Huang Mian¡¯s house the day before yesterday, and the house has been cleaned and prepared for the king to stay. After the discussion is over later, my younger brother will personally lead the second brother there."

    Hong Xiuquan said oh, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "A courtyard with seven entrances and seven exits? It's rare for the DPRK compatriots to bother. If you refuse, the efforts of the DPRK compatriots will be in vain. Then go over and take a look after the discussion?"

    Xiao Yungui bowed and said, "I'll be sure to be ready."

    After finishing speaking, all the kings and civil and military officers walked up to the hall and took their seats, preparing to discuss matters.  Xiao Yungui walked behind, waving to Tang Erniu, the counselor of the West Hall, and Tang Erniu quickly ran toIn front of him, Xiao Yungui whispered: "Hurry up and take more people to Huang Mian's house, clean the inside and outside, and prepare everything I need. The King of Heaven will be there later." Tang  Erniu bowed and clasped his fists to accept the order, and went quickly.

    Hong Yun'er came over and smiled softly beside Xiao Yungui: "You are very quick in adapting to the situation. You are really good at flattering me when the wind blows."

    Xiao Yungui was very thick-skinned and did not even blush. He said calmly: "It is necessary to arrange the leaders' food and accommodation. Learn how to do it." After saying that, he strode towards the hall. Hong Yun'er curled her lips and hummed.  After silently cursing a few shameless words, he also followed.

    The small lobby of the Hunan Governor's Yamen was filled with princes, prime ministers, and civil and military officers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Hong Xiuquan, the king of heaven, sat on the upper seat, Yang Xiuqing sat on the lower seat beside him, the King of the West sat on the left, and the king on the right.  The King of the North and the Queen of the West sat next to the King of the West, and King Yi sat next to the King of the North. The other prime ministers, civil and military officers at all levels took their seats one after another, and they were crowded.

    Everyone sat down and quickly became quiet. The attendants in the West Palace escorted the hot tea. Hong Xiuquan raised his tea cup and laughed loudly: "Brothers, let's celebrate with tea instead of wine. Congratulations that we have finally conquered a provincial city and the foundation of the Kingdom of Heaven will be established forever."  This is what makes you happy!¡±

    Everyone stood up together, raised their glasses and shouted: "Long live the Kingdom of Heaven!" After drinking tea, they sat down again.

    Hong Xiuquan hummed with satisfaction, looked at Yang Xiuqing beside him and said, "Xiu Xiu, please tell me."

    Yang Xiuqing was not polite, and seemed to have been impatient for a long time and wanted to speak. He stood up and said: "At this moment, we have successfully arrived in Changsha to join the Western King's front army, but behind us are Qingyao Xiangrong, He Chun, and Qin Dingsan.  , Jiang Zhongyuan and others followed with their demon soldiers. To the north, there is also a clear demon named Hunan Governor Zhang Liangji who leads his demon soldiers and is looking at them eagerly. How should we use our troops next? Do you have any ideas, brothers?"

    As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was talking about it. At this time, Xiao Yungui saw only one person standing up behind him. When he looked back, he saw that this person was the fierce general Luo Dingyao who was the commander-in-chief of Tuyi at that time.  He had a fleshy face, a beard all over his face, and a rough appearance. He opened his broken gong and said loudly: "The King of Heaven and the King of the East are generous, and I think there is a good strategy. The best strategy is to have the Qingyao lair entrenched in the northern border, and I want to go north.  , we must first conquer Henan. The King of Heaven and the King of the East can lead us to continue the northern expedition, station the army in Henan, and sweep across the Central Plains. The army can calmly cross the Yellow River and determine the rivers and mountains in the north. If the King of Heaven and the King of the East feel that this strategy is too urgent, my younger brother still has  The middle strategy. The middle strategy is to first seize Changsha, send troops to attack from all sides, and secure the nine southern provinces without internal worries. Then send out troops in three directions, one from Xiangchu, one from Hanzhong, and rush towards Xianyang, with Xu and Yang  Sweeping across the left side of the mountain (Shandong), and then out of the right side of the mountain (Shanxi), we will hunt Yandu. This strategy is a little slow, but it is absolutely foolproof."

    " Xiao Yungui let out a soft sigh. He didn't expect that Luo Dingyun, who seemed to be such a rough person, had such a clear idea in his heart. Both sides he said were good choices.

    But Yang Xiuqing didn't seem to want to see Luo Outline, and frowned slightly: "The army continues to march north. It is almost winter now, and the north of the Yangtze River is suddenly cold. We and other soldiers in the south may not be used to it. Moreover, the north of the Yangtze River is not as rich as the south of the Yangtze River, so we may have difficulty in getting food. But that's it.  , this strategy is worthy of discussion."

    Xiao Yungui had a thought in his mind. He wanted to conquer the nine southern provinces and then go to the north. It seemed that the general direction had been set. Yang Xiuqing wanted stability and did not want to cross the Yangtze River so quickly for the northern expedition. He also knew that the Qing army was still very powerful at the moment, and the entire army would be more powerful in the northern expedition.  Like a big gamble, if he wins the bet, the world will be peaceful, but if he loses, he will lose his life. It is more in line with his taste to set the nine provinces in the south and then go to the north.

    At this time, a person next to Hong Yun'er stood up and said loudly: "What the King of the East said is true. Defeat the nine southern provinces first, and then plan the northern expedition. This is a foolproof strategy. But now, in order to determine the nine southern provinces, we need to first conquer Hunan, but Hunan  Except for Changsha, the rest of this place is in the hands of the enemy, and Changsha is surrounded by enemies on all sides. I think we should send troops and horses to attack from all sides and quickly defeat the Qingyao, so that we can conquer Hunan."

    This man had a dark and thin face, sword-shaped eyebrows at the temples, a mustache, and a strong look on his face. Xiao Yungui also recognized him, but he was Qin Rigang, the Prime Minister of Heaven.  Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had as many as twenty-four prime ministers, there were only two in Yong'an, Qin Rigang and Chun Guanzheng Prime Minister Hu Yihuang. No matter how many prime ministers there were, Tianguan Zheng Prime Minister had an extraordinary status and was called the leader of the court officials.  , he has the highest official position among the kings.

    Qin Rigang's voice was also very important among the officials. He was sure that the strategy was right, but he said that what the Eastern King said was true. It was as if the strategy of first defining the nine southern provinces and then planning the Northern Expedition was Yang Xiuqing's idea. He was flattering.  Xiao Yungui admired him for not showing any trace.  But later he only talked about the current situation that everyone was aware of, and the suggestions he made were just to send troops to seize territory from all sides. They were all meaningless words. If he said it, he would not say it. Who doesn't know that troops are going to be sent to seize territory now?

    After Qin Rigang finished speaking, everyone started talking in low voices again, but no one stood up to speak again. Yang Xiuqing frowned and coughed lightly, looked at the three kings of the northwest wing, and said slowly: "Do you have any wise ideas, three wise brothers?"

    Shi Dakai muttered: "What Prime Minister Qin said about sending troops from all directions may be that the strength of the Kingdom of Heaven is insufficient.  The younger brother thought that dangerous places such as Miao Peak in the south of Changsha City, Xiangjiang River in the west of the city, and Yuelu Mountain should be used as barriers to prevent the Qingyao such as Xiangrong in the south. He divided two troops and horses, and one group went eastward to Gan Province to capture Nanchang and dominate the army.  Jiangxi.  The other branch went north to Hubei Province, attacked and occupied three towns in Wuchang, and dominated southern Hubei.  After the victory of the two armies, they will attack Jiangsu and Zhejiang by land and water, thinking that the foundation of the kingdom of heaven will be established. After Jiangsu and Zhejiang are captured, Guangdong, Fujian and Guangxi will be able to pass on the message. By then the army will point to the west, and Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan will not be difficult to pacify!  "
