When the British attacked Guangzhou, the governor would not surrender without fighting. Why is he so abnormal?

His abnormal behavior stems from a very simple reason, that is, he believes in the theory of ghosts and gods and he likes divination very much. Whenever something important happens, he will have a divination, and so will this time. His divination divination divination divination divination 15 He doesn't have to do anything, so naturally he can't do anything.

This famous governor is called Ye, commonly known as the commander-in-chief of six provinces. That is, no war, no surrender, no prevention, no discord, no death and no going. What he did was criticized by people at that time, but we know that Ye is not a mediocre person with no opinion. Why do you say that? We can look at his early experience.

/kloc-passed the exam before the age of 0/8, and became a juren at the age of 26. He became the governor of Guangdong at the age of 36. Well, that's a famous successful person. During the Opium War, the Qing government was forced to open ports to handle customs business. Ye was very disgusted with this and made a rule with others: foreigners are not allowed to go ashore. This move caused dissatisfaction among foreigners. When foreigners sailed into the harbor, he joined forces with 65,438+10,000 people across the country to besiege foreigners' ships. 1856 5438+00 In June, he detained many China sailors, but Britain claimed that this was their ship, and he had no right to detain it, and demanded immediate release and an apology. He just let people go but refused to apologize. In the face of the threat from foreigners, he remained calm. To be sure, this is a man as intelligent as steel.

But such an excellent person is a magic stick, who believes in Huang Lao's theory and has no scientific thinking. Finally, superstition ruined the future and made the Qing government lose its coast. At the same time, the Qing government was forced to surrender, which made the Qing government suffer a cruel blow and ruined the honor of half a life, which is regrettable.

However, after only 14 days, Guangzhou fell. In this war, he was captured by the British. Xianfeng also criticized him, and Guangzhou locals also ridiculed him. The minister finally left a bad reputation.
