Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, Hu Linyi, Peng Yulin, Jiang Zhongyuan, Luo Zenan... The colorful and legendary stories of the top ten generals of the Hunan Army.
The panoramic view reproduces the magnificent history of the Hunan Army.
The Hunan Army rose to prominence and became a powerful force in the world. The generals of the Hunan Army are all characters with distinctive personalities. The protagonists in this book compiled by Wang Jiqing may themselves become the faces of our nation passed down from generation to generation. Loyal as Jiang Zhongyuan, cold as Liu Changyou, wise as Zeng Guofan, as strong as Luo Zenan, as proud as Li Xubin, as strong as Peng Yulin, as resourceful as Hu Linyi, as fierce as Bao Chao, and as wise as Zuo Zongtang, all of them are of typical significance. This book tries its best to put aside pan-ideological value judgments and pays little attention to disputes between right and wrong. Instead, it starts from historical materials to show the complexity of historical figures, describes a group of elites who saved the Qing Empire from general collapse, tells a major change that profoundly affected the direction of modern China, and shows the iron-blooded journey of a Hunan Army general.
Reader comments
As loyal as Jiang Zhongyuan, as wise as Zeng Guofan, as wise as Zuo Zongtang, as resourceful as Hu Linyi, as strong as Peng Yulin, as cold as Liu Changyou, as proud as Li Xubin, as fierce as Bao Chao, as fierce as Wang Zuo, as strong as Luo Zenan, the generals of the Hunan Army
Each general has a distinct personality, such as being as loyal as Jiang Zhongyuan and as strong as Peng Yulin. Moreover, the description of historical figures in the book does not overemphasize ideology, allowing us to understand them more comprehensively. Just like Bao Chao, although he is not from Hunan, his Tingjun is really powerful, with strong attack and defense. His phrase "The Bao flag will always fly high on the battlefield" is very impressive! In short, this book is like a picture of the history of the late Qing Dynasty and is worth reading.
