    Let's turn the time back to the right path. On October 14th, the twelfth year of Kang Mazi in the Qing Dynasty, the Mite Qing water transport fleet loaded with military pay and grass arrived in Hanyang.  The commander of the battlefield, General Fuyuan, Tuhai repeatedly dissuaded him, hoping that the fleet would stay for a few more days, but the new commander of the Fujian-Zhejiang battlefield, who was also appointed as the general, and Wang Jieshu of Kangjun, was anxious to go to Zhejiang to show his skills. Yixue was captured by the enemy.  On the same day, 60,000 main forces of the Huguang Qing Army were loaded, and Zhang Fan went eastward to rescue the critically critical Zhejiang battlefield.

    What made Tu Haitu even more depressed was that because of the lack of ships to carry troops, the emperor's cousin Wang Jieshu of Kang Jun forced himself to draw up 20 warships and lent them to Lord Kang to transport troops to the east¡ªin fact, as long as  After a squeeze, the water transport fleet can barely hold the 60,000 troops, but the ship is too heavy, and the speed of the ship is bound to slow down, so King Kang, who is eager to go to the Zhejiang battlefield to torture rookies and make contributions, is not satisfied.  ¡ª¡ªOf course, later on, this also became a major proof of Lord Kang's foresight.

    ?The main force that was regarded as the cornerstone was finally transferred to the Fujian battlefield. No matter how worried and dissatisfied Tu Hai was, he could only sigh in vain.  In desperation, in order to be sure, Tuhai could only make garrison adjustments on the same day. He personally led an army of 20,000 to go upstream overnight to Luoshandu, the first main battlefield after the adjustment of the strength of the enemy and us.  There, the main position to prevent Wu Jun from crossing the river to the north was re-established.  The Hanyang-Huangzhou defense line, which was already dangerously empty, was entrusted by Tu Hai to Cai Yurong, the treacherous and treacherous governor of Sichuan and Huguang, and the prefect of Huangzhou¡ªDa Yu Jackie Chan!

    In order to be sure, limited to the current financial resources and time constraints of the Qing army, although Tuhai did not build beacon towers along the river like Guan Yu did, he still repeatedly urged Cai Yurong and Yu Chenglong to make sure that Cai Yurong and Yu Chenglong did it for one day.  Report the military situation of Hanyang and Huangzhou three times. If only two military reports are received in a day, Tuhai will immediately divide his troops and return to help.  !  Cai Yurong and Yu Chenglong, who rushed to Hanyang to take orders, were sweating profusely, and respectfully agreed, so Tu Hai felt relieved to lead the troops westward.

    In the early morning of October 15th, the main force of the Huguang Qing army led by Tuhai, Chani, and Yang Jie finally set off for Luoshan. After confirming repeatedly that the scouts did not find any abnormalities in the Wu army, Cai Da, who stayed behind in Hanyang,  The governor finally breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said to Jackie Chan: "Our commander-in-chief Tu is good at everything, but he is a little timid. Wuchang Wugou has only 10,000 troops, and there is no navy stationed. Even if he suddenly kills Jianglai,  We are sure to win one-on-one, I really don't know what he has to worry about?"

    "Don't blame Cai Butang." Yu Chenglong replied respectfully: "I believe that Tutang is so cautious because of the safety of our country and society in the Qing Dynasty. If the Yangtze River defense line is lost, then our Central Plains of the Qing Dynasty will have no danger to defend.  Moreover, Wu's rebel army is cunning and deceitful, the so-called peace treaty, whether it will be fulfilled for a long time to stop the war, still needs time to verify, and the Wanwang Ministry should be cautious."

    "Of course this official knows." Cai Yurong snorted coldly, and then ordered: "My lord, I didn't urge you, just to be cautious, you should also return to Huangzhou City (now Huanggang), and let me closely monitor Wuchang County (now Hubei)  City) and the movements of Wugou¡¯s army in Fankou, reporting the enemy¡¯s situation three times a day, there must be no mistakes¡ªif there is a mistake, what will be the consequences, I don¡¯t think I need to emphasize it?¡±

    "Of order, I will leave immediately and return to Huangzhou." Yu Chenglong got up and cupped his hands, and said kindly: "Cai Butang, do you want to transfer some of the 3,000 troops stationed in Huangzhou to Hanyang? I have already recruited in Huangzhou."  Four thousand voluntary soldiers from the countryside are quite sufficient.¡±

    "No!" Cai Yurong resolutely rejected Yu Jackie's kindness, and sternly shouted: "Don't take it lightly just because there are few Wugou soldiers in Wuchang County and Fankou.  It¡¯s vulnerable! If you don¡¯t leave you with 3,000 main soldiers, how can you tell me to rest assured of Huangzhou?¡±

    "The lower official understands, Xie Butang cares, then the lower official leaves." Yu Chenglong didn't insist either, and after bowing his hands and saluting, he left immediately.  Cai Yurong did not send him off either, but told Yu Jackie to be careful, and sent his third son, Cai Ji, to take Jackie Chan to Hanyang Wharf and return to Huangzhou by boat.

    After Yu Chenglong left, Cai Yurong called the eldest son Cai Lin and the second son Cai Xun, and told them: "Lin'er, Xun'er, what is the situation now, as a father, I will not say much, as a father, I will only separate you two."  Errand, Xun'er, from now on, you will be responsible for scouting and careful arrangements, and you will be doubled for your father. You must closely monitor all movements in the south of Wuchang Prefecture.  No matter when the army is mobilized, report it immediately! The matter is of great importance, and we must not relax, let alone take it lightly!"

    "Understood, please fatherFace to face, kowtow to the direction where Yi Cheng's voice disappeared.

    Note: The anti-Qing uprising in Dongshan, Macheng is by no means a fiction, and He Shirong, the leader of the uprising army, did exist. However, this uprising in response to Wu Jun¡¯s anti-Qing uprising during the San Francisco Rebellion was quickly suppressed by the Qing army.  After the army was cut off, he still fought bravely with his left hand, killing the traitor general Wu Zhilan, and was captured because he accidentally fell into the mud river, and was brutally killed by the Qing army.  And the executioner who brutally suppressed this anti-Qing uprising was precisely the prefect of Huangzhou at that time, and now the one whose buttocks are licked every day by the naked boss¡ª¡ªYu Chenglong!  (To be continued.
