China: Zeng Guofan (Tseng Kuo-fan,1811-1872), Confucian scholar and victorious general for the Qing Dynasty against the Taiping Rebellion

Zeng Guofan (traditional Chinese: ???; simplified Chinese: ???; pinyin: Zeng Guófan; Wade–Giles: Tseng Kuo-fan, Styled Bóhán ?? and variably Dísheng ??; Posthumous name: Wenzheng ??; created Marquis Yiyong of the First Class ?????, ????) (November 21, 1811 – March 12, 1872) was an eminent Han Chinese official, military general, and devout Confucian scholar of the late Qing Dynasty in China. Zeng raised the Xiang Army to fight effectively against the Taiping Rebellion and restored the stability of Qing Dynasty along with other prominent figures, including Zuo Zongtang and Li Hongzhang, setting the scene for the era later known as the 'Tongzhi Restoration' (????). He was known for his strategic perception, administrative skill and noble personality on Confucianist practice, but also sometimes for his ruthlessness on the execution of his policies. Zeng also exemplified loyalty in an era of chaos, but is also regarded as a pre-cursor to the rise of warlordism.
