Chapter 34 Section thirty-four

To the south of Shuyang is the Liutang River. This river was called the Lanma River in the Ming Dynasty. It started from Luoma Lake in Suqian and flowed into the sea in the east. Chengtang was renamed Liutang River.It has a great function in regulating the water level of the canal, so the dikes and weirs have always been tightly protected.But the river is wide enough to block horses, so military deployment cannot help but be taken lightly. At this time, it is Li Hongzhang who is the best friend of the same year to guard the Liutang River. The thousands of Zhejiang troops seconded by Zhejiang governor Ma Xinyi are unfamiliar and there is a gap. On a dusk after a heavy snowfall, Guang quietly crossed the Liutang River and went straight to Qingjiangpu.

Zhang Zhiwan, Governor of Water Transport, was stationed in Qingjiangpu. When he got the news in the middle of the night, he was shocked and turned pale. "Commander!" the Muyou in charge of the memorial saw that his face was blue and uncertain, so he comforted him and said, "The Nian bandits are at the end of their strength, and there is no danger. The Zhejiang army will be in trouble if they cross the Liutang River, but we will be in trouble here." "How to say?" Zhang Zhiwan asked, "What's the benefit of being a little bit?" The friend of that scene leaned in front of him and said in a low voice: "Young Marshal Li's heart is too cruel, he doesn't leave any room for others, now the opportunity has come."

"Slow down!" Zhang Zhiwan interrupted him and asked, "How can it be that Li Shaoquan doesn't leave room for others?" "Commander, please think about it. Young Marshal Li said in the report that he wiped out more than 20,000 enemies in Shouguang and captured more than 10,000 alive. This "flower account" is too much. It doesn't matter if you report the flower account. It shouldn't be said that there are only a few hundred bandits. According to From this point of view, isn’t the entire East Nian flattened by the Huai army?” "Ah, ah, I know it!" Zhang Zhiwan nodded deeply, "He was using it as a foreshadowing to leave room for his meritorious service. However, the room was left too wide, and there was no room for others."

"That's exactly what I said." The Muyou said again: "If the east twists and the south collapses on the way, it is in line with the word 'hundreds'. Now there are thousands of them, and Lai Wenguang is not dead. We have met here." It's a 'strong enemy'!" "En!" Zhang Zhiwan asked after pondering for a while: "So, how do you say to perform?" "I'll make a draft and ask the commander for advice." Military reports like this are always simple and concise, so that the situation can appear urgent, so the screenwriters don't even have to think about it, and they send it up—roughly the report is true, but the number of Nian troops has increased, almost Thousands become "more than ten thousand".

"Brilliant!" Zhang Zhiwan handed back the folded manuscript, and cupped his hands by the way: "I'll post it right away!" At dawn, the cannons had already been fired, and Li Hongzhang didn't know about it in Xuzhou. The official report said that there was a cannon emplacement along the long wall along the river bank, and the ammunition could not be loaded in because of the heat of the cannon body. It was because of such a gap that the Nian army succeeded.After receiving the report, Li Hongzhang was silent for a long time, thinking in his heart: "God's will!" If it wasn't for God's will, such a mistake would have happened under the exhaustive plan.As judged by Zhang Zhiwan and his friends behind the scenes, Li Hongzhang reported only a few hundred bandits escaped in the battle of Mihe, leaving room for his own great achievements. Although this room was left too wide, it was thought over and over again.According to his thinking, the Nian bandits are weak and weak, and after this huge damage, the remnants must surrender, even if they die and do not surrender, it is difficult to become a large group if they are intercepted and scattered by the officers and soldiers along the way.In the end, there is still a Liutang River with a long wall on the river, guns on the wall, and troops behind the guns. What else is there to worry about?

Who would have thought that the Nian Army could go down with horses and pass through the water in this frigid twelfth lunar month, but the Zhejiang Army was so useless!What troubled Li Hongzhang the most was that the Zhejiang army was a guest minister, and Ma Xinyi's face was hindered, so they could not be blamed for causing trouble.Even if they were blamed, they would not accept it. He placed Liu Bingzhang on the north bank, where he still had the opportunity to annihilate the enemy and make meritorious deeds. The Zhejiang army was on the south bank.He also fights hard, so why does his own Huai army put it in a place where it is easy to see success, and specially invites the guest army to back it up?It is my own fault to pay this remark to the public.

I was extremely depressed, and I had to cheer up to respond.Dong Nian has always been "Ren Yong Lai Zhi", seeing Lai Wenguang's plan, he still wants to break through the transportation and defense. If there is any danger, let the Nian army go to the west bank of the canal and enter Anhui from the Soviet Union.Therefore, he sent more than ten letters in a row, strictly ordering each army separately, and working together to suppress them. Of course, Liu Bingzhang was the most anxious in the Huai army. Before Li Hongzhang's order arrived, he had already sent Ye Zhichao and Yang Qizhen, the pro-army cavalry, to cross the river from the north bank of Liutang, and pursue Qingjiangpu and Huai'an along the canal. Lai Wenguang personally for the target.

The Nian army fled all the way, and was intercepted by the officers and soldiers all the way. The number of people was getting smaller and smaller, but the main leaders still had a way to escape.The general situation is over, and escape is not far away, but surrender has to find a place. Ren Sanyan, Li Yun, and Niu Hong still have hope, and decide to try to sneak to the west bank of the canal and surrender to Li Shizhong who is stationed in the south of Hongze Lake .This "confidant" of Shengbao was originally from the Taiping Army who surrendered in the early days. He was an old partner and hoped that he could still give him shelter.Lai Wenguang, from Li Hongzhang down, among the generals of the Huai Army, he has no respect for him. The only exception is Wu Yulan, who is also from Hefei, Anhui. At this time, he was leading troops to guard Yangzhou. Lai Wenguang thought that he would be dealt with fairly if he surrendered, so he decided to go to Yangzhou.

So the remnants of the East Nian were divided into two groups near Gaoyou. One group crossed the canal and fled to the Tianchang and Liuhe areas. Li Zhaoqing sent a cavalry team to pursue it. Although Yangzhou was already in sight, because Liu Bingzhang's pro-army Ye Zhichao and Yang Qizhen were chasing too closely, it seemed that they would be killed or captured if they could not reach Yangzhou. So Lai Wenguang made a plan, got a few sets of "packing" warm hats, pretended to be officers and soldiers, chose a Nian army with a Luzhou accent, put on a blue feather, and pretended to be an officer of the Huai army, pretending to be defeated Every time they passed the gate of the canal, they shouted in a hurry: "Remove the gate quickly, the bandits are coming!"

In this way, once the real officers and soldiers arrive, they have to lower the gate again to let them pass, which naturally delays time and makes the distance longer and longer.At dusk, Lai Wenguang and his entourage arrived at Shaobo Town, forty-five miles north of Yangzhou. This is an important water and land dock. There is a patrol inspector who specializes in river defense. Although the official is small, it is a fat job.Look at the late coming to want snow, Guanjin is leisurely, making four plates and one hot pot and drinking Yanghe sorghum there.Just then, Lai Wenguang and the others arrived, and hit the door with a whip as soon as they got off the horse.

The door was open, and the inspector rushed out in a hurry, and when he saw the leading "officer" dragging Lan Ling behind his head, he was at least an official like "Guerrilla" or "Capital Division" and so on. He called him "Master", and the receptionist went inside to ask about his intentions. The purpose of coming here is to eat, but now it is done. I packed a few large plates of steamed buns, and ate up four plates and one hot pot.The "officer" went on to say: "We have to hurry to see Mr. Wu, the Nian bandits have taken a small path and are heading straight to Yangzhou!" "Ah!" The inspector turned pale with shock, "Excuse me, how far is the Nian Bandit from here?" "It won't be too far." The "officer" lowered his voice and said, "I don't care about your business. We have bothered you for a while, and let you know that the Nian bandits are very ghostly. They stripped the clothes from the prisoners to wear them. Come on, pretending to be an officer. You'd better find a way to prevent them from passing through the gate, and delay him for a while, so that Master Wu will send troops to suppress it——The credit for this is all yours, and Master Wu will report it to you, at least you will be saved The county magistrate. This is because we had a good meal for you. Otherwise, I won’t tell you! Let me tell you again, since the Nian bandits are pretending to be officers and soldiers, as long as you don’t expose them, they will never dare to commit crimes. You just think of a way It's okay to leave them alone!" "Yes, yes!" The patrol inspector invited Ann, and said with a smile on his face, "Thank you for your cultivation, sir!" As soon as Lai Wenguang and the others left, the inspector immediately ordered his subordinates to close the gate and no one was allowed to pass through. As a result, there must be disputes between the two armies of Ye and Yang and Shaobo Town during the inspection, which made Lai Wenguang more able to deal with them calmly. He obtained definite information along the way. Wu Yulan led troops to station at Wayaopu outside Yangzhou City, so he asked about The road, braved the heavy wind and rain, came straight to Wayaopu. Once we arrived at the small town on the east bank of the canal, it was easy to find "Master Wu".Lai Wenguang and his party first went to the hotel, changed into wet clothes, took a rest, and the rain stopped, so they went to the street to look at the brightly lit places.When I went there, I saw a temple. There were two big lanterns on a three-legged bamboo frame at the door. On one side was a "Wu" character as big as Castanopsis chinensis, and on the other side was Wu Yulan's title: "Sanpin Dingdai Jiangsu is selected as Daohuazi Yingtongdai ".Beside the lantern, there were several guards with knives standing. When they saw a group of people coming, they shouted congratulations. , what are you doing?" "I'm here to see Mr. Wu." It was still the Nian Jun who had pretended to be a military officer, and replied with a Luzhou accent. "What do you want to see our lord?" "Under the orders of Master Ye, Master Wu has a confidential military report." "Is that Lord Ye?" At this time Lai Wenguang said: "Here is an urgent letter, please pass it in and see if Mr. Wu heard it?" After speaking, he took out a tightly sealed envelope and handed it over. The general said: "Wait." He took the letter and presented it. Wu Yulan received it and took a look. There was only one line written on the cover: "Master Wu Yin Yulan Misheng." Opening the package and pulling it out, a name card fell on the ground, and the boss picked it up for him. By the way, he took a look. As if being stung by a wasp, his body trembled, and he yelled, "Yo!" Seeing that his expression was different, Wu Yulan quickly snatched it into his hand and saw that there were three words written on the name badge: "Lai Wenguang", she couldn't help being surprised, and hurriedly asked: "How many people are here?" "Seven or eight." "Who gave you this letter?" "A commoner's dress, about fifty years old." "What accent?" "Yes," the boss thought for a while and replied, "with an accent from Guangdong and Guangxi." "That's it." Wu Yulan said: "Don't be busy!" He thought for a while and said: "Please come in!" "yes!" "Wait!" Wu Yulan shook her head, "You can't do this. Hurry up and invite Du Shenlai! Remember, you are not allowed to talk too much. Did you hear me clearly?" The boss also knew that this was an extremely important matter, so he agreed repeatedly, and went to invite General Du Changsheng. After talking about the story in a hurry, Wu Yulan felt that the matter was too abrupt, and gave Du Changsheng two tasks: the first was to leave the team immediately to inspect the land and water pass, in case a large group of Nian troops sneaked in behind Lai Wenguang; Wenguang's coming is unpredictable, it seems that he is here to surrender, but there is no guarantee that he has no other intentions, and he needs to be prepared in advance.After Du Changsheng left, Wu Yulan ordered the general manager to let the "visitor" rest in the guard's room first, and treat him with tea and cigarettes. He wanted to use this moment to read Lai Wenguang's "report". When she opened it and couldn't read a few lines, Wu Yulan felt hot in her ears, as if she had caught a hidden disease... The faults of the generals of the Huai Army, including the generals of the Huai army, they blamed the people for their achievements, falsely reported their victories, and made themselves rich when they were empty-handed. Greed for life and fear of death are all under Lai Wenguang's sharp accusation. Finally, when it came to his surrender, he didn't expect to survive, but only hoped that Wu Yulan could report the truth about his surrender to the court, and at the same time, he also asked for "not to be humiliated". The more this is the case, the more it seems that he has sincerity in his surrender. However, he dismisses many high-ranking officials with red crowns and flower feathers, and only considers himself a virtuous person. taste?After thinking about it carefully, the only way to deal with this unexpected credit is to deal with business affairs and benevolence within the law. So he sent someone to call Muyou to discuss, and at the same time sent an order to bring Lai Wenguang up. "Lai Wenguang surrendered. Please Lord Wu decide for me." Lai Wenguang and his servants knelt and kowtowed. Wu Yulan supported his head while standing, "Get up, get up." He said, "I've read your post. I won't make things difficult for you!" "Thank you, Mr. Wu." Lai Wenguang's expression was very excited, "Wenguang only wants to die quickly!" "I know your state of mind, you should take a good rest first. As long as I do what I can, I will definitely give you a good time!" At this point, Wu Yulan shouted: "Come on! Take it down and settle it properly!" So Lai Wenguang was placed in a courtyard isolated from the outside world. Wu Yulan sent his cronies to guard him.One night passed, and the next morning he brought a pen and inkstone and asked him to write a "professional confession". Lai Wenguang took this opportunity to scold Huai Jun again. Wu Yulan held one of his confessions and a personal confession in her hand, feeling rather embarrassed.According to Muyou's suggestion, there is no need to report these two documents, lest the "superior" be unhappy after reading them.At the same time, there is no need to tell the truth, Lai Wenguang "captured", even if Dong Nian was subdued, and the nine-turn pill was successful, how much military exploits was that?Why bother to have an opportunity and not waste it? "That's a good word!" Wu Yulan thought to herself, if she followed this method, wouldn't she be the same as those people Lai Wenguang scolded?So he hesitated to speak, and hesitated a lot. As a result of the discussion, Wu Yulan first ran a simple business and reported to Li Hongzhang. At this time, the content of the post and personal confession had been leaked out, and the officers and soldiers of each battalion took this as a topic, and there were many discussions. When Wu Yulan learned of this situation, she felt that it was inappropriate to conceal the truth, so she decided to report it truthfully. Soon, Li Hongzhang sent a copywriter to Yangzhou to convey a secret order to ask Wu Yulan to report again. The main thing was to annihilate Lai Wenguang's confession and personal confession. Suppress, and capture when exhausted. At this point, he doesn't have to stick to his original intention anymore, anyway, he has already done what Lai Wenguang said, so he can have a clear conscience.So I discussed with the sent copywriter and drafted another official document for Li Hongzhang to play on it. Of course, when Li Hongzhang's report was released, there were some changes.Wu Yulan's original report said that as soon as Lai Wenguang arrived at Dongbeiwantou in Yangzhou, he received the news and immediately dispatched a team to fight. The Nian bandits scattered and fled in all directions. Participating general Du Changsheng was chasing and killing along the canal, and met the bandits at Wayaopu. , I hope to take advantage of it to escape."The officers and soldiers rushed in in a blaze, and Wu Yulan saw an "old thief on horseback commanding a yellow flag" in the flames. Knowing that he was the leader of the Nian bandits, Wu Yulan fired several shots and knocked him down to the ground.When I was captured and asked, I found out that it was Lai Wenguang, the king of rebellion and puppet compliance. If it is reported like this, Wu Yulan is the head of the credit for capturing Lai Wenguang alive, it will dilute Liu Mingchuan's military exploits, so Li Hongzhang played a performance, praising Liu Mingchuan and others' military exploits, and how brave they were in chasing them all the way south, so that Lai Wenguang He had nothing to return to, and then mentioned Wu Yulan lightly, as if Liu Mingchuan had beaten him like that, and Lai Wenguang was already half dead, and anyone could catch him. The first one was Liu Mingchuan, who was awarded the third-class captain of Qingche, followed by Li Hongzhang, Guo Songlin, Yang Dingxun, and Shanqing, all of whom were awarded the first-class captain of cavalry.The difference is that Li Hongzhang had already been granted the title of earl, and he had two sons who could inherit the post of Captain Cavalry. Zuo Mianchang, Li Hongzhang's nineteenth generation descendant, is also "Su Yi Bo", but at the moment he doesn't even have a son. The most "affordable" ones are Pan Dingxin, Zhang Zhiwan and others, all of whom have been rewarded with top prizes.In addition, the generals who contributed to the Huai army, as well as the senior officials directly related to the suppression of Dongnien, all expressed gratitude.Zeng Guofan and Anhui governor Yinghan were also rewarded with world posts. Both Ding Baozhen and Zeng Guoquan were dismissed. The one who was more wronged was Liu Changyou, the governor of Zhili who was the "head of the frontier officials" and was demoted to the third rank. Guan'er, at this moment, it's just a reward and a second-rank top wear. But the most wronged one was Wu Yulan, whose name was never mentioned in the imperial edict, let alone the reward.This made Li Hongzhang very disturbed. He knew that although Wu Yulan did not capture Lai Wenguang alive, Lai Wenguang was not Wu Yulan who would not surrender. , this level is related to the overall results, he cannot but acknowledge Wu Yulan's achievements.Today, Wu Yulan Xiangyu is the only one who rewards meritorious deeds. He is afraid that he will be dissatisfied and if he spreads the actual situation, it will cause a lot of disputes, so he is anxious to appease him. So he sent another Muyou to Yangzhou to see Wu Yulan.Surprisingly, Wu Yulan's attitude was unusually calm, without any sign of dissatisfaction. During the private conversation, the friend expressed Li Hongzhang's concern and comfort, saying that Wu Yulan had been wronged, and he hoped he didn't mind. After the new year, Li Hongzhang would protect him, and at least he would get a real vacancy for him. "Thank you Jue Shuai for your kindness." Wu Yulan replied, "I don't dare to covet the achievements of heaven. On the contrary, it is like this, which can make me feel at ease for a new year. " I was also afraid that he was being hypocritical, so my friend had to ask to understand: "I need to ask for advice." "To be honest, Lai Wenguang finally thinks highly of me. It's not a good feeling to trade his life for my crown." Li Hongzhang's friends are naturally well-read and can understand Wu Yulan's state of mind. There is a word "righteousness" in it, so they nodded deeply in agreement.Fortunately, he came here to appease her, as long as Wu Yulan had no grievances and nothing would happen, he didn't ask the question, so he perfunctory for a while, and rushed back the next day to return to his order. At this time Li Hongzhang had returned to Jining, Shandong.In the sound of the wax drum, the stars gather.In the fifty-fifth year of Qianlong's reign, when Emperor Gaozong was eighty years old, he made his last tour, after climbing Mount Tai and visiting the Mausoleum of Confucius, Jining City has never seen so many red-capped men, and never seen so many soldiers. The good thing is that if you win a battle, you won't be harassed like defeated officers and soldiers. It's another victory, and another New Year's Eve, so of course a salary must be paid.It doesn't matter whether the soldiers of the Hunan Army or the Huai Army are paid more or less, it depends on how extravagant the chief spends and how tight his hands are.There is also a way of thinking passed down by the military officers, even if the soldiers have received all their salaries, they should not be paid in full. It is said that once the brothers have money, drinking, playing cards and visiting brothels, they will not fight desperately.As for those deducted salaries, they should be kept at a critical moment and used to recruit dead soldiers and strikers.Now that the East Nian has been suppressed, Li Hongzhang has immediately started the plan of layoffs. There is no need to fight, and the salary should not be discounted any more. He ordered the Liangtai to pay each person two months in arrears and one month in grace.There are still three months in arrears, and he has asked Ding Richang, the new governor of Jiangsu, to "borrow a foreign account" in Shanghai, following Zuo Zongtang's method.Zuo Zongtang has taken the lead in paying the customs duties, and they are approved as a guarantee for borrowing foreign accounts. Fortunately, there are still water and land checkpoints. Seeing that the likin from taxation on goods can be used to repay the debts, this foreign account must be borrowed for him to pay the arrears for travel expenses. To abolish the Huai army. The army stationed around Jining had a very lively year, and the imperial envoys also arranged a big banquet every day to celebrate their achievements.Li Hongzhang was in good spirits on the surface, but he was worried secretly.The first one is Li Yun, Ren Sanyan and others, who fled to Xuyi and were surrounded by Li Zhaoqing. When they were about to annihilate the next time, Li Shizhong suddenly opened a dike to take them in, saying that they were recruited by the order of Anhui governor Yinghan. Then, as expected, Yinghan sent officials to arrest the bandit leaders Li Yun and Ren Sanyan with arrows. It is said that Li Shizhong will take them to Shanxi to recruit Mr. Zhang, who escaped from Shaanxi. stupid.Li Hongzhang knew very well that Li Shizhong was unreliable, and he was afraid that Yinghan would be fooled, and he would still be implicated in other matters. The second thing is that the dismissal of the Huai Army has not yet been ordered, but Liu Mingchuan has insisted on it, and there are a lot of complaints after drinking.In addition, Guo Songlin and Pan Dingxin also asked for leave to return to their hometowns, and the heavy burden of handling the aftermath fell on his shoulders alone. In the blink of an eye, it was the seventh year of Tongzhi. On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the generals of the Huai Army were paying New Year's greetings for Li Hongzhang. Suddenly, a special mission from the Ministry of War arrived to "step up six hundred miles." The army also only allowed half of the approval, and weeded out the old and weak, and those who were capable and available should still stay in the camp. Then he said: "Hebei's defense is tight, and Liu Mingchuan's department is the most capable. The admiral should be ordered to rectify and rectify the department, and then move to the camp. The victorious commander galloped to Yu Province to fight against the enemy with his camera, so that Jin Nian could not rush forward. When the soldiers have been serving outside for a long time, the enemy has a common hatred, and the imperial court is sympathetic to their labor and commends their courage. The minister made a point of sticking to it to show his sympathy." Among the generals of the Huai Army, Liu Mingchuan was the most determined to go, and he was chosen by the court. However, this was not a transfer of the Ming Army. Xi Nian, this is something that Li Hongzhang is extremely unwilling to do. "I still can't spare me, and I can't spare the Huai army!" He asked the general, "Everyone, how can we get away with it?" "This battle cannot be fought!" It was Liu Mingchuan who was the first to speak. He explained the reasons why this battle cannot be fought. The first is the lack of specific powers-Zhang Zongyu has already crossed the river from Shanxi to the Nanweihui area, and is planning to enter Hebei from the Daming Mansion.At this moment, the troops defending Gyeonggi under imperial edict include the Zhili Army of Zhili, the Henan Army of Henan, the Wan Army of Anhui, the Eastern Army of Shandong, the Jin Army of Shanxi, the Cavalry of Heilongjiang, the Foreign Gun Team of Chonghou, and the Shenji Yingrong Army. Lu's Weiyuan Artillery Team.However, Zuo Zongtang, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, who was accused by Li Hongzhang of "letting the thieves out of the mountains", chased him from Shaanxi to Shanxi, but he wrote a memorial in high spirits, saying that the snow in the Zelu area of ​​Shanxi made it difficult to travel, so he decided not to avoid dangers. Go west from Pingyang, cross Taiyue Mountain, exit the Junji Pass, go straight to Xingtai and other places, and meet the attack in the south.There are so many generals in the north and south of the river. In terms of wealth and prestige, he succeeded Liu Changyou as the official leader of Zhili Governor. In terms of handling affairs, Zuo Zongtang is famous for being domineering and not leaving room for others. Besides, none of the commanders of the banner battalion Without a history, no one can afford to offend, so once the Huai army is gone, it will be difficult and not flattering. "There is still pay!" Liu Ming said, "Fighting the East Nian has something to do with the two rivers, and the two rivers raise money. , the source of salary is not enough, how to fight this battle?" On this level, Li Hongzhang knew better than Liu Mingchuan.But he only talks about others, not himself.Liu Mingchuan was ordered to go to Henan to suppress the meeting, so he didn't need to worry about food and salary, no matter where he came from, there was always a food platform to take care of it for him, but why didn't he talk about himself?What happened to the departure to Henan? It only takes a little more thought to understand.Not only did Liu Mingchuan not want to go to Henan, he even didn't want to talk about it. With his current achievements and achievements, he said that he was going to be under the temperate command of Henan Governor Li Henian, who had just been awarded the first prize. Isn't this a joke? Therefore, Li Hongzhang didn't have to ask him any more.He planned in his heart, Zhang Zongyu has not yet entered Hebei, there are people from all walks of life, who are divided into kings, they can always stop him, once the bandits slow down, and the court does not pursue them, nothing will happen.Therefore, I decided to ignore the Ting Ji who said "step up for six hundred miles".Let those generals drink and gamble as usual. But apart from him, the governors and ministers of military command all over the country are only cautious in their orders, at least on the surface, and they are all flying chapters to report.Almost every day the imperial court did not issue imperial edicts on the strategy of attacking and suppressing. Most of these secret edicts had the words "know it by order". Therefore, Li Hongzhang was quite familiar with the evolution of the situation and the handling of the imperial court. Finally, one day, he realized that the situation was not good. Not only did all the people who suppressed the West Nian go to help, but he became very backward in comparison, and he couldn't control the aftermath of the suppression of the East Nian!Lai Wenguang was ordered to rectify the Dharma, and it was managed by Zhang Zhiwan, the governor of water transport.Ren Sanyan, Li Yun, and Niu Xizi were at the governor of Anhui, Yinghan, and the imperial decree stated that "the three criminals have poisoned many provinces, and countless lives have been victimized. After being suppressed, there is no way out. They first surrendered, and it is difficult to deal with Gurong again." , specially ordered Yinghan to "clearly interrogate, deal with the law on the spot, and apply for the constitution of the country to please people's hearts." , Changed Ren Sanyan's name to "Ren Sanying", saying that he drowned in the Yangzhou River, while Niu Xizi said that he "had not been rebellious for a long time, but he first surrendered, and the situation is slightly forgiven", and he was saved from death. "How did these words come from, I don't know!" Li Hongzhang said to his Muyou that he should be perfunctory and perfunctory to the court, so as not to be isolated.However, it was too late!
