The gunshots of the Wuchang uprising rang out, although it was not launched according to the plan, but then again, there were not several times when the uprisings of the revolutionary party were carried out according to the plan. Although the rebel soldiers did not have a unified command, they were professionals after all, and everyone unanimously attacked the Chuwangtai armory first, and the revolutionaries stationed outside Wuchang City, the baggage brigade, the artillery battalion, and the engineering team also launched an uprising and gathered at Chuwangtai. Some of the rebel soldiers of the 29th and 30th bids in Wuchang City also rushed out of the camp gate and rushed to Chuwangtai; Later, the revolutionaries in the standard camps inside and outside Wuchang City also led the people to revolt and rushed to Chuwangtai. The number of people in the uprising amounted to more than 3,000. At 10:30 p.m., the rebels attacked the governor's office and the adjacent Eighth Town Headquarters in three directions. He also ordered the 8th Artillery Standard, which had entered the city, to occupy firing positions at Zhonghe Gate and Snake Mountain, and bombard the Superintendent's Office. At first, the insurgents did not have a strong command, and with insufficient troops, the offensive was thwarted. After 12 o'clock in the evening, the rebels attacked again, broke through the enemy's defensive line, and set fire to the vicinity of the superintendent's office, marked by the light of the fire, and the artillery near Snake Hill and Zhonghe Gate fired artillery bombardment at the firelight. The governor of Huguang, Ruihan, broke the back wall of the governor's office and fled by boat from the Yangtze River, and Zhang Biao, the commander of the eighth town, still resisted stubbornly at the headquarters. After repeated attacks, the rebels finally captured the Governor's Office and the town headquarters before dawn. Zhang Biao withdrew from Wuchang, and the whole of Wuchang was under the control of the rebel army.

At this time, in the headquarters of the Wuyi New Army in Jinan Prefecture, the lights were bright, the telegrams were shuttling, and all departments were already in full array, Duan Zhiquan and the officers of the General Staff Department had already hung the large-scale combat map of the Lianghu region and the entire Qing Dynasty in the war room, and the sand table was also raised, Duan Zhiquan looked at the sand table that had obviously been prepared a long time ago, and sighed secretly in his heart, the more the temple wins, and even if Yuan Dashuai is not dead, he will definitely not be the opponent of Wu Zongzuo, just with this well-informed and accurate information, Wu Chenxuan took a big advantage. The combined advantages of the new army's system, combat strength, and equipment have completely destroyed all armed forces in the country, and even the third town of Beiyang, which he was once proud of, is dwarfed.

"The total seat is here." All the staff officers, including Duan Zhiquan, put down their work and waited solemnly, Wu Chenxuan, who had already changed into a military uniform, walked in quickly, raised his hand slightly, and everyone began to work on the work at hand. Wu Chenxuan walked to the map, Huang Xinpei took a stack of telegrams, Wu Chenxuan quickly browsed several important telegrams on it, and then motioned to Duan Zhiquan to explain.

“… At present, it seems that the Hubei New Army has been basically controlled by the mutinous soldiers, and the eighth town of the New Army can already be regarded as a rebel. The imperial court estimated that the new troops from the northern provinces would be transferred to the south to fight, and the General Staff analyzed that the right town of our army in Luxi in northern Anhui and the independent detachment of Yizhen in southern Anhui, as well as the rear town in northern Jiangsu, may be transferred to the front line. The Beiyang side will mobilize the second, third, and sixth towns to suppress it. ”

"Great, but we need to avoid getting involved too early, for any reason? In addition, the consumption of ammunition for the exercise is huge, and it is difficult to maintain the normal level of reserves, so it is necessary to replenish it in three to four months. ”

Speaking of this, the equipment staff officer and Duan Zhiquan both laughed, in the past few years, the Wuyi New Army and the War Department have been fighting lawsuits because of the price of equipment and training consumption, and they are very experienced.

"By the way, if you want to delay the intervention of Beiyang, does the staff have any plans?"

"Yes, the main seat." The operational staff officer immediately opened a large notebook and pulled out a plan marked C-6, which obviously met Wu Chenxuan's needs by delaying the intervention of the Beiyang New Army without a frontal conflict. Detailed planning has been made for the transportation from Zhengyangmen Station to Hankou, and there are one or two sub-plan numbers on several key nodes, such as "C-6a1" and the like, which is nothing more than how to artificially cause congestion, create rumors and chaos in the name of the revolutionary army, or simply blow up bridges, break roads, build landslides or even burst embankments to release water, and use water to replace the work of soldiers, and the conscience is greatly broken. Wu Chenxuan believes that if it weren't for the country, these wolf cubs might even be too troublesome to omit ethnic integration, and they would directly use biological and chemical weapons.

Late at night on 10 October, He Guanzhong, the sixth brother of He Ziyuan, the sixth brother of He Ziyuan, the main league member of the Jiaying Prefecture of the Revolutionary Party, who was studying at the Baoding Military Advisory Office Military Academy (later renamed the Army University), and Li Jishen, who was in the same dormitory, and other classmates immediately organized the military academy students to take action, and immediately blew up the Caohe Iron Bridge near Baoding, successfully preventing the Qing army from moving south to suppress the revolutionary movement, and winning valuable preparation time for the revolutionaries. Of course, few people know that in addition to the identity of a military cadet and a revolutionary party, He Guanzhong is also one of the more than a dozen internal lines directly controlled by He Minhan of the Intelligence Department, otherwise how could these military cadets buy high explosives from foreign companies, and they would not find out where the real weakness of the bridge is. In short, under the wise leadership and planning of He Guanzhong, the life of the Luanhe Iron Bridge was greatly shortened, so that the soldiers of the second town were still marching on the bridge in a hurry, and the officers of the second town found that there was a fuse of burning sparks everywhere under their feet.

At dawn on October 11, 1911, the rebel army gathered in the conference hall of the Hubei Consultative Bureau Building, and Cai Jimin, director of the 29th Standard 2nd Battalion of the 15th Association of the Eighth Town of the New Army, convened a meeting to discuss the formation of a military government and the election of governors. In addition to more than 10 revolutionaries, including Wu Xinghan and Xu Daming, Tang Hualong, chairman of the Advisory Bureau, Zhang Yanrong, vice speaker of the Consultative Bureau, and members of the National Assembly, as well as former military officer Wu Zhaolin, were also invited to attend the meeting. Wu Zhaolin proposed that Li Yuanlong, the commander of the 21st Mixed Association, be the governor, and the constitutionalists unanimously supported it, and some revolutionaries were also in Wuchang because Huang Kedi and Song Dunchu were not in Wuchang, Peng Chufan, Liu Fuji, and Yang Hongsheng were killed, Sun Wu was injured, and Jiang Yiwu was forced to flee, and there was no better candidate to agree, so the meeting approved Li Yuanlong as the governor and Tang Hualong as the chief of civil affairs (one said that it was the general senate). After the revolutionary army expelled Ruihan from the city, he immediately led his troops to surround Li Yuanlong's residence and forced Li Yuanlong to "preside over the plan". Surrounded him on the Chu Wangtai, all the officers and soldiers of the uprising raised their guns to salute Li Yuanlong, and some artillerymen shouted: "Please order the battle!" The Hubei Consultative Bureau had already prepared a notice for the people, and signed the word "Li" for Li Yuanlong. Although Li Yuanlong was under house arrest at this time, his prestige stabilized Wuchang's military morale and won unanimous support. When the news of Li Yuanlong's appointment as governor reached the army, the local soldiers applauded and cheered. In the afternoon, when the first "Proclamation of the Military Governor of the Republic of China Military Government of the Republic of China" was posted on the streets of Wuhan, "the audience was crowded everywhere, and the illiterate people asked the literate people to read it to them." The streets and alleys of Wuchang can be described as crowded with thousands of people, and many people shed tears and felt raised eyebrows." The rapid release of a series of telegrams in the name of Li Yuanlong, the governor of Hubei, accelerated the response of the provinces and intensified the division of the Qing ruling group. In the name of Governor Li Yuanlong, he sent a note to the consuls of various countries, which was quickly delivered to the consulates of various countries in Hankou, so that the countries could understand the foreign policy of the Hubei revolutionaries. On October 18, the consulates declared "strict neutrality," thus avoiding armed intervention in the Wuchang uprising.

On October 12, 1911, Hu Yuzhen, Qiu Wenbin, Zhao Chengwu, and other soldiers of the 42nd Standard of the 21st Mixed Association of the Revolutionaries launched an uprising in Hanyang; Subsequently, Zhao Chengwu led the rebel army to capture Hankou. At this point, the three towns of Wuhan were all in the hands of the revolutionary army. The Qing government issued an edict to "suppress" the "revolutionary party" in Wuhan, and the Minister of War Yin Chang, who had already taken over the position of Tieliang, led the Qing army around Hubei to train Yong, the old army and the new Beiyang army of the Anhui system to press Wuhan one after another.

On October 14, 1911, the fourth day after the Wuchang Uprising, the Qing court issued an edict summoning Wu Chenxuan, Duan Zhiquan, Feng Guozhang, Cao Kun, Duan Zhigui, and Jin Yunpeng to form the "Two Lakes Suppression Former Enemy Command", with Tie Liang as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy. The prime minister of the imperial cabinet, Yi Xuan, and the prince of alcohol, Zaifeng, sent a military aircraft, Xiao Zhangjing, Guo Chunshu, to Jinan to persuade him. That night, Guo Chunshu got off the train at Jinan Station, but found that the platform had been controlled by the Wuyi New Army wearing iron gray uniforms, and even sandbag fortifications were built on the platform, and the Makqin heavy machine gun was erected. On the other freight platform, boxes of shells and bullets and rows of artillery were being loaded, which frightened Guo Chunshu so much that he almost thought that the revolutionary army had reached Jinan Mansion.

"Third Brother Bing, what does this mean?" Guo Chunshu raised his hand and pointed at these soldiers and munitions, and asked Xiong Bingsan, the chief speaker of the four provincial advisory bureaus who came to greet him.

Xiong Bingsan sighed first, "It's really eventful, the country is unfortunate, there are many thieves, this is not, Zhongzhen has just entered northern Anhui, and there has been a riot in Suqian in northern Jiangsu, it is said that now even Suqian County has been broken by thieves, no way, first transfer a regiment in Houzhen to quell the chaos, I also came to pick up my brother only after the Advisory Bureau just passed the mobilization bill, and I hope that Brother Haihan is rude." ”

"Where, there. The third brother should put state affairs first, and I am already grateful if my brother can come. Saying that, Guo Chunshu raised his hand and arched it, but his heart was very numb, and there were already some signs, this time he urged Wu Dashuai to send troops to quell the chaos, I am afraid that something will be discordant.

"Report to the head of the regiment, who are we going to fight against?" A platoon commander ordered a soft chicken from the Jinan Cigarette Factory to his own regiment commander, and while the regiment commander was comfortably swallowing clouds and spitting fog, he hurriedly exchanged some news to show off with the brothers in the platoon.

"It's not a revolution yet..., hey, I said you're a second dog, you kid is bold, can you inquire about this military secret? Don't die. Let me tell you, Ergouzi, what our Wuyi New Army pays attention to is to recruit and come, to win the battle, to use me in the first battle, and to be invincible with me. The chief gave an order, even if it was your second uncle on the other side, he would have to be beaten to death, don't you know? ”

"Yes, yes. Look at what you said, head of the regiment, when did we Xu Peng fight vaguely, isn't it that the brothers don't know who to fight with, or are they a little confused. ”

"Okay, I know you're a bit of a handle, and you're a bit tighter. You know? The regiment commander scolded sharply, the second dog Xu Peng didn't pay attention to it at all, he pulled the regiment commander out of the pile of dead people when he beat the black ditch, if he didn't like to read, he would have become a company commander a long time ago.

Guo Chunshu got into the car, and when he left Jinan Station, the military train also roared out of the station, and the soldiers on the train looked serious, and the cannons held their heads high, waiting for Wu Dashuai's military order to fully demonstrate their destructive skills to the enemy.
