李鸿章主导了苏州杀降吗?

On the Falsehood of Li Hung-chang's Plot to Slaughter Surrendered Officers in Suzhou

一直以来,学者多认同李鸿章主导或与程学启合谋诱杀了太平军苏州降将。但根据与李鸿章同时代人的相关记载,此说法尚有可商榷之处。根据记载,程学启是苏州杀降的倡导与主持者,而李鸿章不得不附和程学启的主张甚至毫不知情。

Scholars have always accepted the standpoint that Li Hung-chang plotted to kill Taiping Army officers who already surrendered in Suzhou or conspired it with Cheng Xueqi.But according to records at that time,this opinion needs further discussion.Cheng Xueqi was the arch-advocator and plotted it,while Li Hung-chang was submitted to Cheng Xueqi,and even he didn t know it at first.
