When Huo Qubing heard the word "foreigner", he finally understood what the problem was. Some players changed part of the plot, allowing the uprising headquarters to operate normally. His face suddenly turned gloomy. Hubei had always been his territory, but a player was so ignorant that he interfered and ruined his good deeds. This feud was finally settled.
Although he could not fire the first shot of the Wuchang Uprising, Huo Qubing could not do nothing. He quickly followed Wu Zhaolin to Chu Wangtai. Wu Zhaolin entered the headquarters with Huo Qubing, but was stopped by the guard at the door: "The commander-in-chief and chief of staff are formulating a battle plan, and no one else is allowed to enter."
Wu Zhaolin said angrily: "Am I just a bastard? Do you want me to leave with the Eighth Engineering Battalion?"
The guard quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu, of course you can go in, but this stranger is very unfamiliar. How about he wait for you outside?"
Wu Zhaolin had already recognized Huo Qubing as the leader, and of course he did not dare to leave Huo Qubing outside. He said loudly: "Brother Bokui, since everyone does not welcome me to participate in the uprising, I will take my brothers and leave first."
Jiang Yiwu, who was formulating a battle plan in the room, quickly came out and said, "Brother Wu, why did you say this? The uprising requires everyone's concerted efforts and Brother Wu's strong support is needed."
Wu Zhaolin snorted coldly and said: "This is my good brother Huo Qubing. Before the uprising, he sponsored a thousand spears of the 8th Engineering Battalion. He is qualified to enter, right?"
Jiang Yiwu¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard that he was a big financial backer, and he said enthusiastically: ¡°Thank you Mr. Huo for your strong support for the revolution. We are formulating a battle plan and hope that Mr. Huo can provide more suggestions.¡±
After being humble, Huo Qubing followed Jiang Yiwu into the headquarters. He was stunned when he saw the players standing in front of the map. Jiang Yiwu pointed at Xuanyuan Jian and said: "Brother Wu, Mr. Huo, this is our Chief of General Staff Xuanyuan Jian. Brother Sun Wu was injured yesterday while making explosives in Hankou. Thanks to Brother Xuanyuan for repelling the Russian patrol, otherwise I would not be able to Standing here."
Huo Qubing's eyes almost burst out with fire. After a long time, he said a few words from between his teeth: "Young Master Long has good tricks."
Xuanyuan Jian smiled slightly and said: "Brother Huo, thank you. I definitely did not violate the rules in developing the base area in Hubei. This time I just tried my luck because the Wuchang Uprising was about to break out, and I just did a mission by chance."
Of course, Huo Qubing didn¡¯t believe Xuanyuan Sword¡¯s lies. How could he hit him just in the middle of a mission by accident? His plan would come to nothing if the fire was under the cauldron. But he couldn't find any fault with Xuanyuan Sword. There is a tacit understanding between the children of the aristocratic family. Generally, we do not develop base areas on other people's territory, but we do not say that we are not allowed to do tasks on other people's territory.
Jiang Yiwu and Wu Zhaolin couldn't understand their conversation. Jiang Yiwu laughed loudly and said: "It turns out that the two stranger brothers know each other. That couldn't be better. In order to win the uprising, we must unite as one."
Huo Qubing turned pale and stopped talking. Xuanyuan Jian stopped talking to him and began to formulate a battle plan with Jiang Yiwu. Wu Zhaolin, the temporary interim commander in history, has also become a soy sauce, and can only wait for orders from the commander-in-chief and chief of general staff. Soon the combat order was issued, and Wu Zhaolin's 8th Engineering Battalion served as the vanguard and was responsible for attacking the Chuwangtai Ordnance Station.
When Wu Zhaolin was about to accept the order, Huo Qubing said coldly: "Brother Wu, the Eighth Engineering Battalion is not good at frontal charges. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to be the vanguard!"
Wu Zhaolin had already taken refuge with Huo Qubing. Naturally, it was Huo Qubing who followed his lead. He said loudly: "That's right! My brother is bent on revolution, but there is no reason to let the engineering battalion serve as the vanguard."
Wu Zhaolin's blatant refusal of the order made Jiang Yiwu look a little ugly, and he also lost his favorable impression of Huo Qubing, but he had to admit that Wu Zhaolin was right. The engineering battalion is not the most combat-effective unit. It was Chief of Staff Xuanyuan Jian's idea to let him serve as the vanguard, and Jiang Yiwu did not agree with it.
Xuanyuan Jian shook his head slightly. He had no ill intentions in letting the engineering battalion serve as the main force. He just wanted to ease the relationship with Huo Qubing. Huo Qubing failed to fire the first shot of the Wuchang Uprising, but if he could lead the engineering battalion to capture the Chuwangtai Ordnance Depot. You can also gain some political capital.
"It's a pity that Huo Qubing lost his calm in anger. After learning that the 8th Engineering Battalion was the vanguard, he thought that Xuanyuan Sword wanted to consume the NPC troops under his control, so he rejected Xuanyuan Sword's kindness.
After discussing with Jiang Yiwu, Xuanyuan Jian decided to send the military police battalion as the vanguard, and an hour later they captured the Chuwangtai Ordnance Station. At 9 o'clock in the evening, all the insurrectionary troops gathered at Chu Wangtai and attacked the Governor's Yamen and the Eighth Town Headquarters in three directions. The city's artillery battalion No. 8 built artillery positions at Zhonghe Gate and Sheshan to bomb the Governor's Yamen.
Due to the perfect command system of the rebel army, they quickly broke through the Qing army's defense line and began to set fire near the governor's office. Governor of HuguangRuicheng broke through the back wall of the superintendent's office and escaped by boat from the Yangtze River. Zhang Biao, the commander of the Eighth Town, was still resisting at the headquarters. After repeated attacks, the rebel army finally occupied the superintendent's office and the town headquarters before dawn. Zhang Biao withdrew from Wuchang, and the entire Wuchang was under the control of the rebel army.
Huo Qubing quickly regained his senses and understood that Xuanyuan Jian had good intentions in letting the Eighth Engineering Battalion serve as the vanguard, but he did not regret his refusal. After working hard for a long time, the biggest fruit was picked by an old acquaintance, which would make anyone feel unhappy. When the rebel army began to attack the governor's office and the Eighth Town headquarters, he asked Wu Zhaolin to lead the Eighth Engineering Battalion to leave and prepare to take the lead in attacking Hankou and Hanyang.
Huo Qubing¡¯s choice was very correct. Compared with Xuanyuan Sword, he had a huge advantage. He had tens of thousands of troops in Hubei. Conquering Hankou and Hanyang is a huge contribution, and mastering these two places will definitely attract the attention of the revolutionaries. In order to win over him, the revolutionaries should be willing to spend money.
Hankou Hanyang, which originally had to wait until the late night of the 11th and the 12th to be liberated, was completely liberated in the early morning of the 11th under Huo Qubing's fierce attack at all costs. The revolutionaries spoke highly of Huo Qubing and warmly invited him to replace the sick Liu Gong as the prime minister of the headquarters, with a status equivalent to that of Xuanyuan Jian.
Huo Qubing finally moved back to the first bureau and happily went to work at the uprising headquarters. With the restoration of Han Dynasty in Hankou, the Wuchang Uprising achieved a great victory. Late at night on October 10, 1911, He Guanzhong, who was studying at the Military Academy in Baoding, learned of the uprising for the first time. He immediately organized Li Jishen and other classmates in his dormitory and sneaked out of the school to lead the Qing army southward. The Caohe Iron Bridge was blown up.
The Caohe Iron Bridge was bombed, which delayed the Qing army's march south to suppress the uprising, which greatly supported the subsequent military operations of the Wuchang Uprising Army in Hubei Province. The greater significance is that this bought the revolutionaries ample time to carry out nationwide activities and consolidated the revolutionary fruits of the Wuchang Uprising.
This bridge bombing operation was presided over by He Guanzhong. Historical celebrities such as Li Jishen participated in it, and several students became famous all over the world. After the Wuchang Uprising, He Guanzhong said shyly in an interview with reporters: "The student army blew up the bridge because of Principal Chen's guidance. He is the biggest contributor. Principal Chen has always supported the revolution, but many people misunderstood him."
Principal Chen is of course Chen Baxian, who was the governor of the Guangxi military government at the time. Historically, the bombing of the Caohe Bridge was a spontaneous act by the student army, and Mr. Chen shamelessly stole the credit. He Guanzhong was the sixth brother of He Ziyuan, the leader of the Tongmenghui. He joined the Tongmenghui under the recommendation of He Ziyuan. After He Ziyuan failed to participate in the Chaozhou Huanggang Uprising in 1907, he and Xu Xueqiu were rescued to Guizhou.
Xu Xueqiu serves as a teacher in Guizhou. He Ziyuan has good cultural attributes and is Chen Hao's internal candidate for the Minister of Education. He has always been in contact with He Ziyuan. Although he failed to get He Ziyuan to be loyal, the two had a good personal relationship. He Ziyuan did not accept his employment, mainly because he was still a court official and had not publicly announced an uprising. He believed that when he announced the establishment of the Han Guangxi Military Government, He Ziyuan, Xu Xueqiu and others would happily accept his employment.
With He Ziyuan¡¯s relationship and the fact that Chen Hao once served as the principal of Baoding Military Academy, it is not surprising that he and He Guanzhong had correspondence. Before the Wuchang Uprising broke out, Chen Hao pretended to analyze the situation in his letter and believed that an uprising might break out in the south soon. It is suggested that if He Guanzhong learns about the uprising in the south, he can organize passionate youths to blow up the Caohe Bridge and do his part for the revolution.
Master Chen did not work as hard as Xuanyuan Jian and Huo Qubing during the Wuchang Uprising, but he easily took the credit for blowing up the Caohe Bridge and laid the chess piece of Li Yuanhong. After the rebel army liberated the three towns in Wuhan, they established the Hubei Military Government and conducted democratic elections. As a result, the most popular person was Li Yuanhong, the leader of the 21st Association who had not contributed much during the revolution.
Xuanyuan Jian in the rebel army headquarters firmly opposed Li Yuanhong's appointment as the governor. Huo Qubing held the opposite opinion, believing that Li Yuanhong had the highest prestige in the new army and it was only reasonable that he should serve as the governor.
It¡¯s not surprising that the two have completely opposite attitudes. Xuanyuan Jian is the chief of staff of the uprising headquarters, and almost all combat plans are formulated by him. He also personally went to the military police camp to fire the first shot of the uprising. Xuanyuan Sword's performance even surpassed that of the commander-in-chief Jiang Yiwu. He also had the opportunity to compete for the governor of the Hubei military government, so it is not surprising that he opposed Li Yuanhong as the governor.
Huo Qubing had ambitions to be a governor before. After being plotted by Xuanyuan Sword, his performance was overshadowed by the light of Xuanyuan Sword. Jiang Yiwu admires Xuanyuan Sword very much. If Jiang Yiwu is elected as the governor, it will also be beneficial to Xuanyuan Sword. Huo Qubing didn't stand a chance. He wished that Li Yuanhong would muddy the waters when he became the governor.
Before the uprising, Huo Qubing visited Li Yuanhong, but Li Yuanhong was neither salty nor indifferent to him, and it was hard to say he had any good impression of him. Even if Li Yuanhong was elected as the governor in this way, it would be better than Jiang Yiwu or Xuanyuan Jian. Young Master Huo opposed it very thoroughly, saying that if Li Yuanhong was not allowed to be the governor, he would resign.The position of Prime Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
