The Taiping Rebellion was naturally related to the corruption of the Great Qing Dynasty. At this time, Hong Xiuquan worshipped God. Due to the fatuity and corruption of the Qing government, there are many religious believers. After Hong Xiuquan came to jintian uprising, many people followed him.
Finally, Hong Xiuquan captured Nanjing, renamed Tianjing, and became the King of Heaven.
When the Qing government faced this aggressive uprising, there was actually no countermeasure. At this time, the Manchu officials were more incompetent than one.
However, this just proves that Hong Xiuquan has no ambition. He didn't attack Beijing at this time, but built the capital Tianjing first and lived a stable and enjoyable life. It can be seen from this that he has no ambition, he just wants to take this opportunity to enjoy himself luxuriously.
The Qing government attached great importance to Han officials;
At this time, the reason why the Qing government was able to recover was naturally the time given by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
Naturally, there are also strong appointments of Han officials. For example, Zeng Guofan returned to the village to exercise rural courage and no longer used the children of the Eight Banners to get sick. From Zeng Guofan's hand, many generals who can be used to fighting naturally have commanders.
Li Hongzhang, Zuo and Hu Linyi, all outstanding among the Han people, became generals who fought side by side with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and finally wiped out the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom with their wisdom.
The infighting of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and Shi Dakai's departure;
However, after the victory, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom also began to fight among the imperial courts, that is, it has not yet won the world, but it has fallen apart internally.
Yang is in charge at this time, especially for Hong Xiuquan. Needless to say, the best things are at home.
At this time, another leader, Wei Changhui, was naturally dissatisfied with this, so he took the opportunity to kill his whole family while Yang was unprepared.
Wei Changhui became the boss, so he naturally wouldn't give up his rights easily. At this point, Shi Dakai returned to Beijing and plotted with the king to eradicate Wei Changhui.
Shi Dakai stayed in Beijing to help the government, but Hong Xiuquan was worried that he would become the next Yang Xiuqing again. The next Wei Changhui is naturally more prepared for him. Shi Dakai consciously didn't feel the reuse, so he led his men away. It can be said that some troops of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom have been taken away, and they are all soldiers who can be used to fighting.
Finally, Zeng Guofan wiped out the Dadu River.
Since then, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has gradually weakened, and its defense has been unable to attack.
Therefore, the failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is still an internal dispute, which is related to the extravagant enjoyment and inaction of its later leaders.
