Major-General Charles George Gordon, CB (28 January 1833 - 26
January 1885), also known as Chinese Gordon, Gordon Pasha, and
Gordon of Khartoum, was a British army officer and administrator.He
saw action in the Crimean War as an officer in the British army,
but he made his military reputation in China, where he was placed
in command of the Ever Victorious Army, a force of Chinese soldiers
led by European officers. In the early 1860s, Gordon and his men
were instrumental in putting down the Taiping Rebellion, regularly
defeating much larger forces. For these accomplishments, he was
given the nickname Chinese Gordon and honours from both the Emperor
of China and the British Government.
