    Can't still perish. As a peasant uprising, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had its constraints, and the military strength of the Qing State at that time was stronger than it.

    Definitely not. Because the Hunan army had already surrounded the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom at that time, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was certain to lose.

    I don't think we can insist on not perishing, because the internal contradictions of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are already very deep, and there are many struggles, and destruction is inevitable.

    It is impossible not to perish, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom itself was born against the trend of the times, and it could not take root in China at that time, and it was only a matter of time before it collapsed.

    Yang Xiuqing was one of the leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and although he came from a poor peasant family, he was a smart and capable man. Yang Xiuqing's ending was not good, and he finally died in the Tianjing Incident, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom also declined. In fact, even if Yang Xiuqing does not die, the outcome of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will not change, let alone overthrow the rule of the Qing Dynasty.

    The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was a vigorous peasant uprising, which did achieve good results in the early stage, inspired people's emancipatory thoughts, and effectively dealt a blow to the Qing rulers and foreign invasion. But as power expanded, so did the leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and their thinking shifted from thinking about the interests of the people to asserting their own power.

    The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was a war led by a group of peasants, which was ideologically destined to have certain limitations, which was the fundamental reason for the failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement. In addition, the Taiping Rebellion had many strategic mistakes, and the rulers could not clearly judge the form of the time. In the later years, the rulers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom began to be content with pleasure, lacking fighting spirit, corrupt, and often engaged in internal strife for power.

    This was an important reason for the failure of the Taiping Rebellion. Even if Yang Xiuqing did not die, it would not be able to change the situation at that time.

    Yang Xiuqing's rise from a member of the bottom of society to one of the leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Dongwang, proves that he was indeed a capable person, and his prestige at that time was extremely high, second only to Hong Xiuquan. But Yang Xiuqing is also a greedy person, he has offended many people because of his high power, and once caused him to lose his life. In 1956, Yang Xiuqing forced Hong Xiuquan to title him "Long live", Hong Xiuquan felt threatened, so he secretly sent someone to kill Yang Xiuqing.

    If Yang Xiuqing had not died, presumably the civil strife in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would have been even more serious.

    When Yang Xiuqing was alive, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was victorious, the Northern Expedition hit Tianjin in one go, and the Western Expedition made a great Warring States, especially under the command of Yang Xiuqing, broke through the two large camps in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, and lifted the three-year siege of Tianjing.

    The defeat of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was inevitable, and the main reason was that Hong Xiuquan's pattern was not big enough, he did not have the talent of the emperor, let alone the elegance of the emperor, there was no cohesion, and there was no set of perfect management system, and the political power, military power, and religious power were not grasped! has always been passive, first Yang Xiuqing pretended to be a rebellion with his heavenly father, then Wei Changhui led the troops to force the palace, and finally Shi Dakai came to the bottom of the kettle to take away 100,000 elites to the Northern Expedition! To sum it up:

    The government decrees are not uniform, there are many government departments, the people's hearts are not aligned, internal and external troubles are not as good as the Qing Dynasty, the population, the land system, the military, and the civil administration! Failure is inevitable! A good start was wasted!

    The start is perfect, and the ending is embarrassing!

    Yang Xiuqing? If he doesn't die, isn't the civil strife in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom more serious? And he is essentially the same as Hong Xiuquan, an unqualified commander.

    If the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom wants to win, the premise is that there is no civil strife, and the power is in the hands of truly talented people like Shi Dakai, Li Xiucheng, and Chen Yucheng.

    In August 1856, Yang Xiuqing scolded Hong Xiuquan under the pretext of "Heavenly Father" and forced Hong Xiuquan to crown him as "Long live". Hong Xiuquan felt that the development of the situation was not good for him, and ostensibly agreed to Yang Xiuqing's request; Secretly, Wei Changhui, Shi Dakai, and Qin Rigang, who were on the front line, were secretly summoned to return to Beijing to rescue them. Wei Changhui immediately led 3,000 elite soldiers back to Tianjing. >>>More

    The core of the early stage is Shi Dakai, as well as Feng Yunshan, who died in the early battle, before Yang Xiuqing and Wei Changhui were counted before they hit Nanjing, and after the capital Tianjing, they were all happy, and Shi Dakai was left. In the later period, the main generals were Chen Yucheng, the king of loyalty, and Li Xiucheng, the king of England.

    I think that the Taiping Rebellion dealt a heavy blow to the feudal ruling class, strongly shook the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, and accelerated the decline of the Qing Dynasty.

    Because a person's ambition will continue to swell, and Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, is not satisfied with his subordinate status, so he naturally has the idea of killing Hong Xiuquan to seize the throne. The Taiping Rebellion was undoubtedly a successful peasant uprising, and although it did not succeed in the end, it achieved the impact that an uprising should have, but although the process of the Taiping Rebellion was vigorous, it could not escape the fate of failure, after all, there were big problems with its leaders. >>>More
