In July 1864, when Tianjing fell, Li Xiucheng gave the good horse to the young king Hong Tianguifu. He rode a bad horse to fight and was unfortunately captured. However, the young king successfully broke out and went to Huzhou. At the request of Zeng Guofan, Li Xiucheng wrote tens of thousands of words in "The Book of Self-report". When talking about the young king, he said: "The ignorant boy died in a chaotic army. Who knows?" This means that the young king is dead, and the governor can no longer care about him.
Where is the Governor of Liangjiang Zeng Guofan? Sure enough, he played the court, saying that the young king died in the chaos army, and had a big quarrel with Zuo Zongtang, and the relationship between them deteriorated. In fact, the young king is not dead, he is hiding in Huzhou. Four months later, the young king "on the initiative" sent him to the door, was taken prisoner by Xi Baotian, and sent to Nanchang Lingchi to be executed, cut more than 1,000 knives, and he was only 15 years old. In fact, the young king could not have died, but it was a pity that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom "failed in education" and missed two chances to survive.
01, 15-year-old boy, what can he do? Many people say that the young king Hong Tianguifu is just a minor child, and it is inevitable to be captured by the Qing army. It is understandable. Must a minor not survive? What can a 15-year-old do? When Emperor Kangxi was 15 years old, he captured the four dynasties elder Obhai, removed the strongest political opponents, and truly gained power.
Chen Yucheng, the British king, was the leader of the "Boy Scouts" when he was 15 years old. In January 1853, 50 death squads broke into the Wuchang gap at the risk of being blown up by landmines to clear the way for the large forces. Li Xiucheng's adopted son, and His Royal Highness Li Rongfa, brought more than ten "Boy Scouts" into the mountains when he was 15 years old and arrested Qing Dynasty spy Zhang Jigeng. Yue Fei's son Yue Yun was even more powerful. When he was 15 years old, he had already gone into battle to kill the enemy and became a general, chasing the golden soldiers and slinging.
was born in troubled times, 15 years old is already regarded as an "adult", must learn to be alone in order to survive. However, when Hong Tianguifu was 15 years old, he did not even have the most basic life skills, which is really sad.
02, Hong Xiuquan's "unique" education method
The extremely bad performance of the young king at 15 years old is derived from Hong Xiuquan's "characteristic" education model. Hong Xiuquan planned the children's life according to his own vision, completely out of the actual needs, not the right way for the prince to cultivate. So, how did Hong Xiuquan train the prince?
For fear of bloodline problems, Hong Xiuquan’s harem has no male except for himself and the young king. Education is naturally undertaken by her aunt Hong Xuanjiao, and the content she learns is the enlightenment books compiled by Hong Xiuquan, such as "Shiquan Daji Poems", "Three Character Classics", "Children's Poems", "A Thousand Characters Edict", "Awakening the World", etc. Wait. Recite "Mom, Farewell," "Sister, Farewell," "Brother, Farewell," and "Sister-in-law, Farewell," all day long.
In line with the principle of three thousand beauties in the harem of the emperor, when the young king was 9 years old, Hong Xiuquan found him 4 wives to take care of his daily life and enjoy the beautiful life of the emperor in advance.
03. Under the "unique education" mode, the character of the young king was developed as
. Born in troubled times, Hong Xiuquan did not want to improve the life skills of the young king, and did not learn how to deal with military affairs. Instead, he had fun in time and spent the whole day with a group of court ladies. mixed together. In this way, the character of the young heavenly king can be imagined; cowardice, lack of masculinity, and lack of responsibility are the true portrayal of the young heavenly king and his sorrow.
9-year-old boy, there is no knowledgeable Hongru, nor civil and military commander, but learns low-level Christian books from his aunt Hong Xuanjiao all day. Over time, Hong Tianguifu's character became weaker and weaker, and he did not have the style of a king in troubled times. It is no wonder that he "takes the initiative" to send him to the door in the future and was captured alive.
Hong Tianguifu is cowardly and has no masculinity, as can be seen from one thing. In July 1864, the Hunan Army broke through Tianjing, and the Taiping Army resisted fiercely to prevent the opponent's offensive. At this time, Hong Tianguifu panicked and left his 4 wives directly and ran to the Zhongwang Mansion to hide, instead of commanding troops to resist or planning to break through.
04, missed 2 chances to survive, and "take the initiative" to send it to the door
From Hong Tianguifu's "Readme", he had 2 chances to survive, and he could successfully escape the chase by the Qing army, but he was "wasted" helplessly. unfortunately. The battle of the Yang family was defeated, tens of thousands of Taiping troops were killed, Hong Tianguifu fell into the ravine and escaped. At this time, he could have survived in the mountains with some living supplies. However, Hong Tianguifu has no life skills, noKnow how to survive in the wild; after eating the biscuits given by the old man, he went straight down the mountain and went everywhere. If
could survive in the mountains, Hong Tianguifu could escape a catastrophe, but he could not catch it. After going down the mountain, Hong Tianguifu ran to an old farmer's house. The old farmer liked him very much and shaved his hair and stayed at home. However, Hong Tianguifu didn't know how to do farm work, and he was lazy, so the old farmer found a reason to drive him out. In this way, Hong Tianguifu missed the second chance to survive. After
came out of the old farmer's house, Hong Tianguifu took the grain with him and ate it, and was hungry. So he "actively" ran to the Hunan army camp and asked for a meal. At first, the Hunan Army thought he was a refugee and fed him. Who knows, a Hakka dialect revealed his identity and was captured alive.
05. "Tucao" in the Hunan army camp is really naive and ridiculous.
A Hakka dialect reveals his identity, which is really sad. At this time, if Hong Tianguifu pretends to be a deaf and mute, just eat, don't speak, and leave as soon as he eats, he should be able to survive. What's more sad is that Hong Tianguifu was in the Hunan army camp, and he also "spit on" the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and had illusions about the Qing Dynasty. The details are as follows:
First, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's disturbance is Hong Xiuquan's matter, and it has nothing to do with me (the young king). So, I don’t take responsibility, and you don’t want to kill me.
Second, the Taiping Army are all "bandits". Now that they are defeated, I don't have to run around.
Third, I want to settle in Hunan, take the imperial examination, become an official in the Qing Dynasty, then marry a wife and start a family.
This is funny enough, Hong Xiuquan launched the Jintian Uprising and almost wiped out the Qing Dynasty. At this time, the young king actually thought that the imperial court would be able to open the door, become an official for himself, and start a family. It can be said that Hong Tianguifu is ignorant of world affairs and full of fantasy, which can only be reduced to a laughing stock.
In summary, 15-year-old Hong Tianguifu’s death: "Education failed" in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. In troubled times, he did not even have basic survival skills. He also "actively" went to the Hunan Army Camp to find food. Ling Chi was not to blame. If Hong Xiuquan's education is strong, Hong Tianguifu has the skills of Chen Yucheng and Li Rongfa, or has basic survival skills, he can spend his life in an old farmer's house and successfully escape the pursuit of the Qing Dynasty. For example, Hong Tianguifu's cousin, Hong Quanfu, has superb survival skills. Not only did he evade the Qing Dynasty, he also participated in the League of Nations. If he lived for two more years, he could overthrow the Qing Dynasty.
