Chapter 1905: Conquering the Great Talent, Qianlong’s Shock!
"Those who know the current affairs are heroes. Why should you two sacrifice your family's robes and lives for the Qing court? It's absolutely not worth it!"
Guo Jia, Mei Changsu and others all also gave persuasion, and there was a tacit understanding between the emperor and his ministers.
Zuo Zongtang felt relieved. After thinking about it carefully, he immediately knelt down on the ground, bowed his head and said: "Zuo Zongtang, the guilty general, pays homage to the Holy Emperor!"
Nowadays, the collapse of the Qing court is almost a foregone conclusion. If you don't want to drag your family and brothers to be buried with the Qing court, the only way to go is to surrender to the Han...
Liu Hao was a man of great talent and strategy. He could be called a holy king who would never be seen in this world. He was admired by people. Zeng Guofan pondered for a long time, and without any further hesitation, he sighed and prostrated himself. He put his forehead to the ground and performed the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, saying: "Han people
From the Han Dynasty, it is God's will that the guilty minister Zeng Guofan... is willing to surrender to the Han Dynasty!"
Ding dong!
"Congratulations to the host, you have subdued Zuo Zongtang. You will be rewarded with an additional 2,500 worship points. Zuo Zongtang's current loyalty points are 88. Please keep up the good work, host!"
"Congratulations to the host. You have conquered Zeng Guofan. You will be rewarded with an additional 3,000 worship points. Zeng Guofan's current loyalty points are 90 points. Please keep up the good work!"
"Haha, it's done!"
Liu Hao felt a little happy in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the two of them up, and said with a smile: "With the help of the public, I am like a tiger with added wings, and I can conquer the world, how can I say it!? This is really the blessing of all the people in the world!"
Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang can definitely be regarded as the most prestigious among the Qing court guards. Now that they have surrendered, the Hunan Army will naturally join Gong Jiwei.
Sure enough, Zeng Guofan turned around and said to the many prisoners of war of the Hunan Army: "The Emperor of Han is a man of destiny and virtue, and you are all brothers in the army. What are your plans?"
"Follow Zeng Shuai and surrender!"
"If Qing Gou doesn't treat us Han people as human beings, he'd already want to leave!"
"I am willing to follow Zuo Shuai and submit to the great man!"
The Hunan Army had deep feelings for each other. Only Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang followed suit. Zeng Guoquan, Yang Zaifu, Bao Chao, Zhang Yao and other generals did not hesitate at all and fell to their knees. The scene was spectacular.
Yang Zaifu and other generals clasped their fists and said: "Greetings to His Majesty the Holy Emperor, a certain class of people with dull qualifications are willing to sacrifice their lives to be His Majesty's pawns and do their best to help His Majesty achieve unparalleled hegemony!"
The surrender of these middle-level generals caused the entire Qing court system to collapse in half. Together with the famous Qing generals that were previously defeated, the Qing Dynasty was already on the verge of collapse!
Liu Hao's ears were filled with a series of system prompts that sounded like heavenly sounds of increasing loyalty. After a small boost of adoration points, he felt secretly happy.
Zeng Guofan bowed and said: "The generals are willing to surrender, please take them under your wing!"
Liu Hao smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said: "All of you generals are elite soldiers of the Hunan Army. Today, I have surrendered to the Han Dynasty. I am extremely happy. Please get up quickly!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!"
Yang Zaifu, Bao Chao and others were grateful. They did not expect that the Emperor of Han Dynasty was so majestic and majestic, but he was also so easy to talk to.
Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia and others also bowed and congratulated: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, you have gained another great commander. Your dynasty will be prosperous for thousands of years!"
After subduing Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang and others, Liu Hao had a clear idea in his mind and asked Zeng Guofan with a smile: "What do you think the situation is like now?"
Zeng Guofan straightened his back and said without thinking: "Go straight down to Tongzhou, attack Shengjing, and destroy the Qing Dynasty in one month. As for the two thieves Li and Zhang, how can they succeed in holding the people hostage? Send a special service officer to attack them and destroy them!"
Zuo Zongtang also said: "Thieves Zhang and Li are nothing to be afraid of. If you dare to come to Shengjing to take a trip through the muddy waters, please lead the troops to attack them!"
He thought that he had just surrendered, and he wanted to present his certificate of surrender and show off himself.
"As expected of His Majesty, he is a special service officer with extraordinary knowledge!"
Guo Jia and others nodded secretly, obviously agreeing with Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang's opinions.
Since ancient times, the leaders of uprisings have almost always been cannon fodder. Similar to Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and others, they are keen on energy enjoyment as soon as they achieve success. Zhang Jiao and others, although seemingly powerful, are actually doomed from the beginning. Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong
He has extraordinary power, but how can he compare with Liu Hao?
Everyone deliberated for a while, and Liu Hao finally came out with the final word, saying: "The secret department has promoted Marshal Wu Mu to attack Tongzhou urgently, and sent Jin Yiwei to patrol the southeast to guard against the Zhang and Li thieves..."
"As you command!"
...
Shengjing.
In the past few days, no one in the city could sleep peacefully.
The Qing government continuously mobilized troops to station in Tongzhou. Even Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang mobilized to the Tongzhou battlefield to fight the Great Patriotic War.
Everyone's heartstrings were tightened, and they were completely tied to the Tongzhou battlefield.
Everyone was enthusiastically discussing the shocking battle in Tongzhou.
The entire Qing court was also trembling with fear from this battle.
The Four Princes' Mansion.
Hongli always had great ambitions. On this day, he was discussing world affairs with the strange people he had gathered, and for some reason he came up with the topic of the Battle of Tongzhou.
While everyone was arguing, Hongli smiled slightly and said: "How can Han invaders with their native chickens and dogs be attacked? Zeng Shuai and Zuo Shuai are the heroes of the world, and Agui and Hailancha are also good generals of the Qing Dynasty.
Is there any reason why a war cannot be won?"
Hongli was extremely proud of himself. If he could kill the Emperor of Han with his secret move, he would invisibly influence this shocking war. This kind of pleasure of being firmly behind the scenes and taking care of everything cannot be explained to outsiders.
also!
Many staff members flattered them one after another: "Han people are as humble as dogs. This time we must show them how powerful we are!"
"I heard Master Agui say that if you defeat the Han thieves, you won't be able to seal the sword for three months and kill them as fast as you can!"
"The emperor, Sun Yingming and Shenwu, have the style of the late emperor!"
...
While flattery was flying around, there was a burst of light and rapid footsteps outside the door. It was Fu Ankang, the chief steward of the palace, who came.
I saw him covered in sweat and with a frightened look on his face. He walked straight in from the outside without saluting, and shouted: "Master, something serious is going to happen... It's not going to happen!"
Hongli was unhappy and asked, "What's going on? You're so flustered. It's so unbecoming!"
After Fu Ankang saluted, he took a deep breath, calmed down, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, Tongzhou... In the battle of Tongzhou, Agui, Hailancha and other adults died in the battle, and Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang fell to the Han army.
, life or death is unknown, our army retreated thirty miles, hundreds of thousands of troops collapsed, the Han army is about to reach Shengjing!!"
quiet!
In the hall, it was deathly silent.
Hongli's eyes were wide open, bloodshot and red, as if in disbelief, staring at Fu Ankang in front of him, turned into a clay and wood sculpture!
After a while, Hongli swallowed a mouthful of saliva and then said in a solemn voice: "You...you say it again!?" …
