These four people always appear in the history books at the same time, and their talents and achievements seem to be equal. So who is the most talented of the four famous ministers in the late Qing Dynasty? Who contributed the most?
Zhangzhidong
Among the political stars in the late Qing Dynasty, no matter who has the highest talent, Zhang Zhidong is the leader of the literati group in the late Qing Dynasty. As the governor of Huguang, Zhang Zhidong not only made great achievements in politics, but also was a well-deserved leader in culture, education and poetry in the late Qing Dynasty. He not only devoted great energy to the establishment of industry in the two lakes region and the prosperity of Qiang Bing, but also was the governor of Huguang, which made Zhang Zhidong gather many famous poets in the late Qing Dynasty in his shogunate. In his spare time, Zhang Zhidong made friends with these literati, and his own pursuit of academic thought attracted and condensed many talents.

As the core figure of the Westernization Movement, politician and scholar Zhang Zhidong accepted all kinds of talents with a tolerant attitude. According to the book Zhang Zhidong's Shogunate, Zhang Zhidong's shogunate is full of elites and talents. Some of these talents gathered around Zhang Zhidong rely on the ideological talent of Governor Huguang, while others are because Zhang Zhidong is compatible with their completely different poetic thoughts. In this way, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, a large number of elite literati gathered in Hunan and Hubei, and Zhang Zhidong eventually grew into the leader of Hunan literati group by virtue of his political status and influence. The position of the other three famous ministers in the literary world is completely incomparable with that of Zhang Zhidong, which shows that Zhang Zhidong's talent is high.
Zeng Guofan
If you want to say which of these four people has contributed the most? Zeng Guofan ranks first among the four famous ministers of ZTE. Zeng Guofan's greatest contribution in his life was to establish the Xiang Army Group. In the third year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty, Zeng Guofan, a registered assistant minister, founded the Xiang Army in his hometown of Hunan, and commanded this team to capture Tianjing and suppress the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement. Since then, the Xiang Army Group has gradually ushered in its heyday, and many Hunan talents have seized this opportunity to enter the political and military circles. Their spirit of diligence, loyalty and not afraid of losing is the deepest brand of the Xiang Army Group.
Zeng Guofan

The world admires his spirit of loyalty to the country and being the first in the world. Zeng Guofan has seen the importance of foreign guns from a long-term perspective since he became assistant minister of Hunan Yingyong. The Anqing Ordnance Institute he founded is not only the first military enterprise in China, but also the prelude to the Westernization Movement. It is precisely because of Zeng Guofan and Xiangjun Group that so many generals appeared, and China's military industrial enterprises were able to enter the historical stage.
