Peng Yulin's main achievements

Peng Yulin's life is full of legends. He was a scholar in his early years and later joined the Xiang army. Because he was brave and good at fighting with the Taiping heavenly kingdom army, he was good at strategy and innovative. In the third year of Xianfeng (1853), Zeng Guofan asked him to establish the Xiang navy, buy foreign guns, build big ships and train soldiers. In the second year, he led the Xiang Navy to defeat the Taiping Army in Xiangtan, then led the army to capture Yuezhou and defeated the Taiping Army Navy in Hetianjia Town, Wuhan. Later, Xiang Shuishi was defeated by Shi Dakai in Hukou. So the navy reorganized and cooperated with the army to defeat the Taiping Army in Zhangshu Town and Linjiang. Then he led the Xiang navy to capture Hukou, Jiujiang and Anqing, and was promoted to be the prefect of the navy and the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War. In the battle to seize Tianjin (now Nanjing), he personally led the navy division to cooperate with Ceng Guoquan Lushi to descend the Yangtze River and blocked the mouth of Tianjin moat. In the second year, he captured Jiangpu, Jiufuzhou and Pukou, cut off the grain supply of Tianjing, and became a great hero in capturing Tianjing.

After the collapse of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he devoted himself to the construction of the Yangtze River Navy of the Qing army and the navy of the Qing army. Later, the Yangtze River Navy was fully accepted by Li Hongzhang and became the main force of Beiyang Navy. Peng Yulin became the founder of China's modern navy. Peng Yulin is versatile and good at poetry, calligraphy and painting. In his life, he painted thousands of plum blossom pictures, each of which was engraved with Yongmei's poem of expressing affection with plum blossom. Yongmei's poems, known as "Hundred Rhymes of Plum Blossoms", have entrusted Peng Yulin with his love, yearning, concern, guilt and regret for Meigu all his life. The plum blossom he painted is a must. The plum blossoms in his works are "old and complex, with scales and scales, and are as strong as childlike innocence". They are called "military plum blossoms", which is far from the literati plum blossoms. The plum tree he painted in Gu Zhuo is elegant, robust and full of vitality. The plum blossoms on the branches are full of vitality.

In particular, his "Memetu" is the most outstanding, and it is as famous as Zheng Banqiao's "Mo Zhu", which is called "two masterpieces of calligraphy and painting in Qing Dynasty". Mumeitu, selected as "Hengyang folk national treasure", is a masterpiece of painting plum. This painting depicts an old plum in ink painting, with no top or bottom. The trunk is tall and straight, the whole body is covered with moss, and the eyes are dry. The branches are winding and intertwined, giving people a feeling that the old trees are full of flowers and vitality. Inscribed poems make people more aware of the artistic conception of "childlike innocence and fearless heroes". In my spare time in the army, I like painting and am famous for painting plums. It is said that he misses the love between Iraq and America. "He is old, dint, as strong as a child. "According to the research of Luo Ergang 1946, Mei Gu was originally the adopted daughter of Peng Yulin's grandmother Zhu Bin. As far as qualifications are concerned, she can be said to be Peng Yulin's elder (aunt). Her name is Meigu, a few years older than Peng Yulin. It is said that Peng Yulin called her "Aunt". They met in age, grew up together and lived a private life. Later, the two have never been married. The apparent reason is that the eight characters are incompatible. The real reason is seniority. Later, under the auspices of Peng's mother, Mei Gu married another Yao family and died in dystocia four years later. When Peng Yulin heard the news, he was heartbroken and wept bitterly. "My lifelong confidant is plum blossom" and vowed to paint 100,000 plum blossoms for the rest of his life to commemorate their love. Every time he draws a picture, he has to put a stamp on it, which says, "A sad person has different arms" and "A lifelong confidant is a plum blossom".

Peng Yulin kept his promise. It took him 40 years to fulfill his promise to commemorate Mei Gu with 1 10,000 pieces of plum blossom. He hasn't been married since his wife died. The plum blossoms he painted: dry as iron, branches as steel and flowers as tears. During my resignation and seclusion, first of all, a hall was built next to Zhao Zhong Temple, a famous tourist attraction in Shi Zhongshan, which was full of plum blossoms. The second is to build a "retreat province" in my hometown and paint poems in the temple. For the first time, he resigned as the governor of Anhui (equivalent to the secretary of the Anhui Provincial Party Committee). At that time, it was the eleventh year of Xianfeng (186 1), and Peng Yulin's official position was the history of Anhui navy. Zeng Guofan was appointed Governor of Liangjiang, Governors of Three Provinces were appointed as his three cronies, and Peng Yulin was appointed Governor of Anhui. He declined politely three times in a row on the grounds that he was used to the military camp and neglected civil affairs, and asked the court not to abandon the long and use the short. The imperial court had to withdraw the order and appoint him as assistant minister of the Ministry of War, but he still stayed at the front line to supervise and lead the navy before accepting it.

The second time was February, the fourth year of Tongzhi (1865), and the court appointed the governor of the Department of Grain Transportation. The governor of grain transportation is in charge of grain transportation in Shandong, Henan, Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Hubei provinces, which is the first-class fat vacancy that everyone in the world dreams of. But he declined twice, because he didn't know Cao Zheng, and because he was impatient and knowledgeable, he couldn't get along with all parties. The court had to give up.

The third time was in June of the seventh year of Tongzhi (1868), and Shang Shu resigned as assistant minister of the Ministry of War for seven years. The reason is that when he joined the army, his mother's funeral lasted only one year after three years. Now that the country is stable, he should return to the field and make up for the remaining two years. This time, the court did not retain him and agreed to his resignation.

The fourth time was after Peng Yulin left his post for rest for three or four years. The court appointed him assistant minister of the Ministry of War and minister of Guangxu wedding. As soon as the celebration was over, he immediately resigned as the acting assistant minister of the Ministry of War. After the court accepted it, it gave him another task, that is, to inspect the Yangtze River Navy once a year.

The fifth time was in July of the seventh year of Guangxu (188 1), and the court appointed him as the governor of Liangjiang and Minister of Commerce and Trade of Nanyang. The two rivers are vast in territory and rich in products. Without Nanyang Trade Minister, they have great power and responsibility, and they have been unable to appoint non-official ministers. Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang and others, the important ministers of the DPRK, held this position. The appointment of Peng Yulin as Governor of Liangjiang shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to him, but he just doesn't accept this feeling. He resigned after receiving the order and resigned the next day. The imperial court had no choice but to hand over the vacancy to Zuo.

The sixth time was in the eighth year of Guangxu (1882), and the court appointed Peng Yulin as the Minister of War. As usual, he resigned immediately after receiving the order, which was not allowed by the court. Soon, the Sino-French war broke out, and the court ordered him to lead the old soldiers to recruit and quickly go to Guangdong and Guangxi to deploy coastal defense. He thought it was a critical moment and it was not appropriate to resign, so he went to Guangdong with his sick body, led troops to station in the front line of the South China Sea, renovated the Humen fortress, strengthened the integrity of the coast, and sent troops to defend Qinzhou and Lingshan. Many times in the main battle, strict preparations are required after the war to prevent future troubles. After the victory of the Sino-French War, in March of the 11th year of Guangxu (1885), he resigned as the minister of the Ministry of War, which was not accepted by the court. In August of this year, August of the following year, July of the third year and June of the fourth year, he submitted his resignation four times in a row. In view of his insistence, the court had to accept it. Peng Yulin holds a high position and has always adhered to the principle of "no money". In the winter of the fourth year of Xianfeng (1854), after leading the Xiang navy to cooperate with the land division to capture Tianjia town, the Qing court rewarded 4,200 yuan in silver, but he turned to help his hometown. In his letter to his uncle, he said, "I think it is convenient and enjoyable to use this money, because I want more people and relatives in my hometown to suffer." He also asked his uncle to take some money from it and set up a school in his hometown, hoping to "train a few talents" for his hometown. He is strict with himself and his family. When he learned that his son spent 2000 strings of copper coins to repair the old house at home, he wrote a letter and sternly reprimanded: "Why is it so expensive? I am deeply saddened." He said that he has always regarded "buying a house and land" as a bad habit of being an official, and he has vowed not to do it. Unexpectedly, you started Gai Lou without writing to me to announce it; After it was built, I didn't expect you to be extravagant. Outsiders don't know, saying that I am abnormal and can't practice, how can I meet people! "In fact, the old house built by his son has three earth walls and three tile houses.

Tongzhi for three years (1864), he once said: "Gu has been a magistrate and governor for more than ten years, with the prefect as assistant minister, and has never lived in his post for a day. The wages due should be given to silver, and the slightest salary should be received from the end. ..... I have never been covered by a tile. I cultivated an acre of land to protect my wife. " Peng Yulin said so and did the same. According to the system of Qing dynasty, all civil and military officials paid pensions separately from their official salaries, and paid them once on the day they left their jobs to reward officials for their defense and prevent corruption. According to this calculation, during the seven years from the fifth year of Xianfeng (1855) to the first year of Tongzhi (186 1), Peng Yulin earned 2 1500 taels of yanglian silver, but he didn't take any of it and turned it over to the state treasury for military pay. Considering that he did it alone, Peng Yulin might make people suspect that he was fishing for fame, so he asked Zeng Guofan to explain it to the court. Zeng Guofan said: what Zeng Guofan said is really exaggerated. "Draft of the History of Qing Dynasty": ① Yulin is just quoting classics, but he is tired of grammar, and the director doesn't know the meaning of law. I don't know how powerful I am, but I am frank and straightforward, and I am not arrogant. Li was ordered to attend Xinjiang officials according to etiquette, including Liu Kunyi, Tu Zongying and Zhang Shusheng. , is to uphold justice, save the overall situation, not for the moment. Every patrol, the investigators were punished illegally, even beheaded by military law, and then smelled it, so local officials were in danger. People are in vain. They often look forward to the arrival of Gong Peng. The court listened wholeheartedly, but the Beijing inspector praised it again and again, which was too dependent. All life plays are cut by hand, and they are told to the world every time they come out. Good plum blossom painting, poetry and books are extraordinary, and literary talent is not romantic. (2) He Yang helped to establish a navy division, which is the basis for destroying thieves. Two people made meritorious deeds, and two people merged. Yue Bin later argued for the Western Expedition for the sake of North Korea, which made things look bad. Yulin will not be an official for life, and will swim the Yangtze River to solve the country's worries. His discussion about the loss of the ancients in the late Qing Dynasty is because he can't hide his shortcomings, and also because of his pity for the incompetence of the imperial court. After Yu Sheng's illegal resignation from the post of Shangshu, it is said that his resistance to the imperial edict is very high, and his evaluation of Yulin is almost shallow. Zeng Guofan: (1) Peng Yulin scholar is a soldier, too courageous, warm and generous, and a martyr. (2) if the theory of world heroes, when Peng Yulin, li hongzhang. (3) the bravery of martyrs; Killing heart! (4) Throughout the ages, two plum wives and a few men died of affection; The west lake has three guarantees, and this alone will retire. (5) Cha Peng Yulin has been leading troops for more than ten years, and he has been extremely strict in running the army, and he is afraid of love because of his low rate. Today, due to the lack of military pay, we are willing to raise cheap money and donate it. The provinces will raise their military pay and dare not meet the invitation. It's really lighter than Li Rong, forgetting the public and the private. Hu Linyi: Brave and resolute champion. Left: ① On the seriousness of running the army, Peng Yang is the most important. (2) The source is in a hurry and uncomfortable, which is rare for ancient ministers. What about today? (3) Illegally treat others, solemn, considerate and loyal, and full of style. Li Hongzhang: ① Lao Peng has many tricks. (2) Yang () is more cautious and brave than Peng, and it is more appropriate to use the power of destroying the Yangtze River. (3) Disrespecting the government, not being happy at home, and having made many meritorious deeds, I will die in the Jianghu. No history books, no shame in the temple, a thousand years of fame, the rest can be handed down from generation to generation. Zhang Zhidong: (1) If you add an official and don't worship, you will ride a donkey on the lake for a long time; Do as I say and swear to be a crocodile in the sea. (2) China runs through the Yangtze River and its South China Sea. Rivers and seas are fortunate to stop the waves, and the pillars are now safe. (3) Five years ago, I was in the same robe in the sea, drinking dangerous water and heavy waves; Two thousand miles of the Yangtze River is like a mirror, sweeping away unforgettable people. Ceng Guoquan: The next stop is to cross the river, the next stop is Sun Star, and the first stop is Hengxiang. Three generations later, he was in the Jianghu. He has great thoughts and great honors, and he is loyal and innocent. Yu Yue: ① Xianfeng, the only outstanding official who has always been loyal to the people and has no regrets since Tongzhi. (2) meritorious service in the world, reputation. 3 male heroic, good at drinking; I like to entertain guests, but I am modest. I don't want to be fat and sweet and have no maid. The only one and two old soldiers gave him something. If you meet an old subordinate, you will be clothed with Kundi; And discipline is extremely strict. 4 life is straightforward, that is, gas; When you are just, you are close to benevolence and you are straight. Clearly the son of heaven, knowing the details of the public; In this world, discipline is too frequent. Public and old, private discussion in the side; Emotion seems easy, but achievement is not obvious. I didn't know that these achievements were not public; It was Peng and Yang at that time. On temperament, the sun and the moon win glory; Look at the universe and laugh at the princes. Straight as an arrow, just like an arrow. Yi Zongkui: Peng Xueqin advocates simplicity. He is like a village party secretary. When I visited the Yangtze River, every time I went to the camp officer's office, the camp officer was anxious to remove all the antiques and garlands in the hall before he dared to meet me. A lieutenant bought a jade clock for 1000 yuan. Hearing this, he jumped to the ground with a bang. When the public saw it, they all smiled and said, "What a pity!" The lieutenant was too stunned to look up. When I meet friends, I frown, but in the end I still can't get enough to eat. Instead, I am addicted to Chili and tofu. Some people have paid homage to the West Lake's "retreat to the provincial temple", wearing silk robes and wool jackets, with many cracks and yellow crowns and tassels. There are only two things in the room except pens and inkstones. For a long time, there were several kinds of food and garden vegetables, with only one plate of meat in the middle. Li Qixian: Long Jiang Qian Li. On General Jingchu, the bleak fame and fortune lies in water. Cliff more than a hundred times, plum blossom flaky, that round of courage is still thinking about Huang Fangfang: in order to be an official, ask for money, fight, cut off kudzu vine, ask a few people for a thousand years; After Zheng Wen, Wen Xiang and Wenzhong, they opened the first barrier, and the three old people met and smiled. Yun: I am healthy and upright, and I got it from the Meng family. I applaud my cultivation; People's life is also straight, decided by Confucius, and they are not ashamed of being stupid. Wang Kaiyun: Poetry wine comes from famous artists, and its achievements are brilliant, adding plum blossom color to the painting garden; The ship crossed the sea again, sighing heroes, and forbearing to say that there was a bloody battle in Jiangnan. Wang Kaiyun: I often cough up blood, and Neville is a heavy drinker. Go your own way and tolerate poetry and painting. Guests can cross his boat and have a glimpse of his virtual sofa. Xiao Liao is alone. He just travels for life. Those who don't know envy their wealth and blessings, and those who know hurt their poor lives. From a gentleman's point of view, they are independent and fearless. Guo Songtao: Collect 6,000 Li, and you will be defeated. The navy division founded the hand of a scholar; In the 300 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has galloped into a famous bureau, ignoring energy conservation and inviting the Lord to know. Chen Shijie: There are only a few generations of peers left, such as the misty dark star, which surprised Nanyue. I stay in Santan every other year. Today is sunny, and the West Lake should expect its owner to return. Zhou Chongfu: Zeng Hou Zheng Zhi, Zuo Fu Zhigang, but the public is the best, and Zhongxing Daye is three outstanding figures; Macro view without talent, long source without knowledge, folding my selfishness, Nanyue Qunfeng an old minister. Li: I won the fortitude of honest and frank and Liu Bingzhou from Yuzhou. Every time I think about it, I feel that the old rain has withered, and Jiang Zuo's fame has become a fear; Ceng Wenzheng is a teacher and Zuo Wenxiang is a friend. In the past, they were always like-minded, hoping that clouds would disperse and people and everything would flourish. Wu: The first earthquake shook the desert. Although Xinjiang Post resigned, the frontier defense finally relied on it. Who dares to hold a festival for the boat of the river and the sea, create a new style in the biographies of ancient famous ministers, or retreat to the province, trembling; Spare no effort to build a lecture hall in Dongzhou, ten years of trees, thousands of books. It is no longer a complicated mountain and army horse, but it is still obsessed with riding a basket. The original two or three heroes were born at the right time, learned classics for practical use, answered love like life, and were diligent. Wang Zhichun: It's still a piece of cloth that Fang Wenjing, who leads a totally clean life, works like a fool, has few noble people, is generous in cutting and super-loyal in introduction, and is honest in guarding the car. At that time, Jue Lu spoke frequently, forgetting the joys and sorrows of the world and the sufferings of the people. I gave my life, from the dry sword and the spear of Zhejiang sword to the extinction of the national dog, the mad whale rested forever, the southeast was laid, the Chinese and foreign countries were prosperous, the wine was sung, there was no meteor in the world, and it was fragile; Great achievements were made in Poyang Lake, stayed in Zheshui, and became famous in Guangdong, but loved the Yangtze River all over the world. The salary of Sun Tzu's Art of War is really unbearable. State Councilor Zhou Rongji once took over Gancheng as an emissary and a diplomat. A sense of self-confidence, willing to lean on Taishan Beidou, but unexpectedly, disaster entangled two vertical axes, dreaming of two, Ban Jia Ma Xinfei, the crow changed at night, and there was no chance to build a snow, so I was ashamed to build a house on the ridge and live alone for three years. Gao Pengnian: Nanyue Xiling, the land of two thatched cottages; Wu Tou Chu Wei, the mainstay. Xu Qi: (1) Wen Jiu was accompanied by flowers and trees in Taiwan. Once I saw my husband personally decide; On this day, mountains, rivers and lakes provide food and fragrant beans, which shows that we have always missed our hometown. (2) A bloody battle with half a life will help restore the Central Plains. At this point, Jiang Biao became famous, and all women and children were called Lao Bao Gong. Jiu Bien Lun, who knows loyalty, sincerity and virtue, will be a portrait of a shrine or an old poet in the future. ③ Exercising with water and attaching importance to thousands of miles of springs will still help spring waves to moisten Ye Peng. My hometown is full of scenic spots. I am disappointed in Santan in jathyapple, and no fairy dreams of plum blossoms. Tang Shusen: (1) The emperor ordered him to patrol the river again, and it was calm for 5 thousand miles. He even spread his reputation to the South China Sea; Quiet inside, a minister, talking in the moonlight of the Twelve Bridges, stayed in the West Lake for a long time. Feng Tang is easy to get old, and Yong Chi is the Hou, so three words are general, and the mandarin jacket shoots the tiger in spring; Holding a happy hug on the left, I got a boy on the right, Chu Shi in a lonely mountain forest, talking about dragons at night in a reed curtain paper pavilion. ② Si Hezhen Yue Yingling? With the help of all the students, Ceng Wenzheng set up a division boat, which was covered with green flags and went straight down the Yangtze River to take Xiaogushan from the den of thieves. Defending the martial arts in the east and Xun in the west, fighting for their lives day after day in the mountains, they are still outstanding and still the true nature of scholars. Outside, they were given the resignation of Xinjiang minister, and inside, they were given the resignation of courtiers. They were strong nymphs and cranes, making them heroes and dragons. Shangshu sword shoes, back to the incense to pick up the stars; Less flags, flying far into the sea, Humen opens a precipice, which is abrupt and resistant to the ocean. Thousands of years later, I went to Daguanjiao Castle to find the former site, and I was still deeply moved by the people I saw. I said the scale was large and the layout was cautious. China knew someone was there. Chen Yi: Why do you want to die alone? You have a song of justice and a second example. The Sri Lankan people live forever, leaving behind the West Lake Green and Nanyue Peak Green and Shen Bingcheng: generals in the sky, better than Fu Bo warships and Xiaseg warships. In his later years, he was still the prime minister of the capital city of Jiubian in the mountains, hoping to calm the clouds of Yueyue and the holy lake to show the bright moon. After that, he sang apes and cranes and spread them in the air. Chen Shijie: There are only a few generations left. The fog is heavy and the stars are sinking. Nanyue was surprised that this gentleman went to Santan every other year. In this warm weather, the West Lake should look forward to the return of its owner. Kuibin: If you can give way to a high position, you will not hesitate to hear dangerous things, and you will become famous all your life. It shows that you are really upright and brave, and you love ordinary people the most. When you meet an adulterer, you must cut it off and ask the cause and effect. It's either a bodhisattva or King Kong Xu Yizhen: Jianghu attracts old ministers from afar, and since ancient times, they have risen in tears, and they are general. The nature of the earth is like a true citizen, loyal and resolute, praising rejuvenation, leveling barbarians and invading the Great Wall. Su Yuanchun: This is because of Heng Yue's enthusiasm. After many battles in the rest of his life, he still drove the country to work hard. Unfortunately, Jiuyuan should be generous in border defense. Ding: Fine brushwork competes with hometown, asking thieves to support the border and win fame. I am grateful for my bosom friend, and I can't help crying by the river. Van Lampson: The great cause is to rejuvenate the country, be a good general, be a famous minister and return to Hunan. This is an elder show. Only I am on earth, I am also a Jianghu, and I am also a temple. I hope I can only see the people of Sri Lanka. Ou Lixian Qian: Ziguangge's hair is completely new. Ask the hero of Lingyan if he has such a beautiful face. There are still tears in Huanglongfu, only the West Lake has a bright moon. According to Tan, who has a heart of stone, overseas is still surging, but Zhigong still regrets crossing the river. Count peaches and plums in front of the door and leave me as a house builder. Liu: products are like fans. When you are a scholar, you are in charge of the world. With Yue Shaobao in mind, we went to Huanglongfu, where we drank all the courage and courage of the heroes and sent calligraphy and painting in our spare time. A stamp left a true character of a scholar, respected the elders and ensured the resources of rivers and mountains. Liu Sixun, a brilliant man of a thousand years, set out to kill thieves, raised the border in his old age, studied in the forest for 30 years, looked at the willow and waved the flag, leaving the breeze to move the river. Ice ironman, immortal standard, 10,000 pictures on earth, inquired about plum blossom news, and suddenly surprised the bright moon and lonely mountain. Tang: Throughout the ages, how many people have begged, escaped, drilled and bought officials, how many people have done despicable things for promotion, and how many people are incompetent or sick, but still stick to their posts. Yulin, Peng Like, a person who is willing to work hard and do practical things, and a person who is willing to be an ordinary person, is really rare in ancient and modern officialdom. "
