中国晚清曾有两大幕府,即曾(国藩)李(鸿章)幕府。曾国藩幕府人数众多,共有400余人,以新旧杂糅、军政合一为特色。而李鸿章幕府规模更大,人才济济,中西交汇,带有更多的近代化色彩。可以毫不夸张地说,在十九世纪下半叶,李鸿章幕府汇聚了一批能开眼看世界的先进的中国人。这批幕府成员不仅协助李鸿章完成了清廷镇压太平天国和捻军起义的军事任务,并在此过程中辅助李构建了晚清最具雄厚势力的淮系集团,也因此促使李得以实施推动中国社会近代化的各项计划。 There were two major shogunates in late Qing Dynasty in China, namely, Zeng (Guofan) Li (Hung Zhang) shogunate. Zeng Guofan a large number of shogunate, a total of more than 400 people, with new and old hybrid, military and civilian characteristics. The Li Hongzhang shogunate larger, more talented people, the intersection of China and the West, with more modern colors. It is no exaggeration to say that in the second half of the 19th century, Li Hongzhang’s shogunate brought together a group of advanced Chinese who can open their eyes to the world. These members of the shogunate not only helped Li Hung-chang to complete the Qing military’s task of suppressing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Nien Army, but also helped Li to establish the Huai Group, the most powerful force in the late Qing dynasty, and thus impelled Li to carry out the promotion of Chinese society Various plans of modernization.
