We used to laugh at Ceng Yinglong, a farmer in the 1980s, because he persuaded thousands of people to set up a family planning organization to escape family planning? Big country? , and then get it? Subject? Siege local hospitals and burn birth control pills. After that, this buddy was still in the hospital and took over 40 nurses as his wife. Choose a concubine? .

In fact, compared with Hong Xiuquan, Ceng Yinglong is really dwarfed.

Hong Xiuquan was born in the 19th year of Jiaqing (A.D. 1 814 65438+10/). At that time, the Hong family had a certain amount of land and real estate, which was a petty bourgeoisie and the economic conditions were relatively loose. Therefore, Hong Xiuquan's father sent him to a local private school when he was seven years old.

It is worth noting that Hong Xiuquan is not an only child, and there are two older brothers above him, but these two older brothers have not embarked on the road of learning and becoming famous. Therefore, Hong Xiuquan became the only person in the family who studied for fame, and was loved by his family and detached.

Hong Xiuquan was admitted to Tong Sheng at the age of 14, but he was only lucky this time in the first half of his life. After 17, he didn't even get a scholar in four exams.

In fact, after failing in the third exam, Hong Xiuquan had mental problems and began to go crazy. At that time, Hong Xiuquan returned home and had a serious illness. When I wake up, I talk nonsense and say that I am an angel sent by God to exorcise evil spirits.

Fortunately, the family around Hong Xiuquan still had a trace of reason and hope, which persuaded Hong Xiuquan. But after failing in the fourth exam, he completely lost hope, and it was useless to persuade anyone.

1843, Hong Xiuquan founded the worship shrine and began to preach. At this time, Hong Xiuquan began to rebel.

Since he decided to rebel, he must have a certain theoretical basis. To this end, Hong Xiuquan went to a church in Guangzhou to study Christian teachings for several months. However, Hong Xiuquan found that there was nothing confusing and rebellious in Christian teachings, so he was not interested in learning.

A few months later, Hong Xiuquan, who thought he had learned the doctrine, asked the church priest for baptism. The priest knew that Hong Xiuquan knew nothing and refused.

Out of the church, the fun began.

185 1 At the beginning of the year, jintian uprising was successful, and more than ten thousand believers gathered to occupy a village. As the spiritual leader of a society that worships God, Hong Xiuquan often plays the role of heavenly father and heavenly brother with Yang and Xiao Chaogui to confuse people.

Of course, this kind of thing was not serious at first.

The most serious thing is that Hong Xiuquan began to choose concubines as soon as he laid down a village! This operation is exactly the same as that of Ceng Yinglong mentioned earlier. In Jintian village, Hong Xiuquan chose about 15 beautiful women to accompany him. I instantly felt whether Hong Xiuquan was hungry. Later, when Yong 'an was established, Hong Xiuquan's concubines quickly increased to 36.

It's very bad to have a concubine in the primary election of the uprising, but it's even worse with it.

Hong Xiuquan controlled the people who participated in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom from spirit to body. This way can be described as omni-directional, three-dimensional, multi-angle and no dead angle. Every participant suffers from it.

At the beginning of the army, Hong Xiuquan ordered all believers to sell their property as cash and then hand it in? Shengku? Those unsold properties were burned down. In this way, as long as one person from the whole family enters the Taiping Army, the property of the whole family and even the whole family will be gone and become Hong Xiuquan's? Cross the river? There is no way out. Not only that, every time Hong Xiuquan's Taiping Army conquered a place, it would forcibly incorporate (surround) the local people.

When the whole family, old and young, entered the Taiping Army, they actually held each other hostage, leaving everyone with no way out.
