Oct. 18 at 3 a.m. The People's Army began to attack the enemy at Liujiamiao in Hankou.

At this time the enemies of Liujiamiao. Only the remnants of Zhang Biao, the Henan Mixed Association, and the Yuezhou Patrol Battalion, a total of 2,000 people participated in the battle. Some time ago. Zhang Biao sent people to the Japanese concession to ask the Hubei military adviser Teranishi Xiuwu to discuss the plan.

After Hidetake Teranishi came. gave Zhang Biao two strategies. The first is. Let Zhang Biao gather the strength of the two existing battalions. Lead in person. Promise a big reward. Cross the river from Liujiamiao to Qingshan. Winding to Hongshan. Take the night to Wuchang Binyang Gate. Falsely claiming to respond to the uprising. The revolutionary army will inevitably welcome into the city. Zhang Biao led these two battalions of men and horses to suddenly attack the Consultative Bureau. After the victory, he invited the emperor. Self-sanctioned. The emperor will inevitably atone for his crimes. This second strategy is. Change your name and surname. Fled to Japan.

We're discussing. Qi Baotang, a former Qing army officer, was ordered by Li Yuanhong to send a letter of persuasion to Zhang Biao. Qi Bao Tang was originally a baggage 8 battalion pipe belt. He was once a close confidant of Zhang Biao. He went into the house. He gave Zhang Biao a salute. He said, "It's good to be in control. The subordinates are really worried. It's not going to look at you." Zhang Biao said with a dark face: "What a fart. You are not my subordinate. My subordinates will never surrender to the traitors." Qi Baotang was faceless. I had to change the topic and say, "Today I bring a letter from Commander Lai. Please take control."

Zhang Biao opened the letter and looked at it carefully. See what it says:

Hello Brother Huchen,

Been together for so long. Know each other. Today he suddenly became an enemy. I was very troubled. Boundaries of race. It's as clear as the kings and ministers of the past. An act of righteousness. It can destroy the affection of relatives and friends. Brothers, for the sake of righteousness. Only races can be distinguished. All in one. The military and the people are indignant. Manchu slave arrogant. Abundantly clear. Recent wars. It's been seen. Brother Su Ming. The Way of Obedience and Disobedience The number of wins and losses. And I already knew it. Why the rest of the tiger's mouth. Fleeing from east to west. Why bother for the sake of full slavery? Harm my fellow man. What's more, Brother Ren is the son of the Yellow Emperor. Don't you want to snow the shame of my country for more than 260 years? Think about it early in the night. Wake up now. If that's it. You will be in power. Chronicles of Liufang. Cast bronze statues in the country. For the Yellow Emperor's son. The great man of the Han Dynasty. Comparable to Napoleon Washington. If you take the fleeing army. The rabble. Meet the sword soldiers of the heroes of the Han Dynasty in a hundred battles. It is to throw stones with pebbles. Born as a rat. Death as a demon. Isn't it pathetic. Brother, I will lead my compatriots on the river to wait for the eldest brother. Brother Ren should teach me reasonably.

Li Yuanhong nodded his head

October 14, 4609, the first year of the Yellow Emperor

Zhang Biao finished reading the letter. Angry and scolded: "What a bullshit letter. I'm so. We are senior officers. You should be loyal to the court. Never rebel. Within a few days, there were soldiers in Beijing going south. Extinguish all the rebels in Wuchang. I promoted him to this point. He doesn't know how to do it. but also rebellion. It's not a thing. Qi Baotang. Miss you and follow me. Don't kill you. You go back and tell Li Yuanhong. Let him come to Hankow to help me. I can still use him. Otherwise, as soon as the army of Yinchang arrives. Jade burns. Zhulian Nine Clans."

Qi Baotang was so frightened that he resigned. Don't dare to speak. Just nod in agreement.

After Qi Baotang is gone. Hidetake Teranishi said, "Why don't you take advantage of this opportunity. Meritorious service to the imperial court. It's a pity. It's a pity." Zhang Biao half-closed his eyes and said, "This plan is okay. It's just too risky. Those revolutionaries are not dry food. It's a success. The credit is also Ruizi's. I think we'll have to wait a minute."

Zhang Biao said that. In fact, I am afraid in my heart. If you use this strategy. Ten of you can't come back.

Li Yuanhong looked at it and persuaded him to surrender. sent 4 people, including Xiao Guobao of the People's Army, to the baggage camp to exercise the soldiers of the battalion anyway. Unfortunately, he was found out by Xiao Anguo again. Immediately grabbed 4 people and handed them over to Zhang Biao. Zhang Biao was furious when he saw this. Immediately ordered to be shot. Xiao Guobao was shot three times in the body. Not yet breathed. Crawled back to our positions late at night.

The revolutionary army heard about it. One by one, they were filled with righteous indignation. I can't wait to be late Zhang Biao.

Zhang Biao saw that Yinchang's army was heading south. In order to confess his loyalty to the imperial court. He also sent Xiao Anguo, who had a teacher-student relationship with Yinchang, to curry favor with Yinchang and said. Zhang Biao has several battalions of reliable troops. is on standby at Liujiamiao. Once the army goes south. That is, to attack Wuchang with all his might.

This time the people's army participated in the attack on Liujiamiao. There are mainly two standards of Yao Jinyong and Lin Yizhi. They attacked along Houcheng Road towards Xinsheng Road. In front of the attacking troops. There are three death squads as strikers. The captain of the first death squad is Xu Zhaobin. The captain of the second death squad is Ma Rong. The captain of the third death squad is Gong Ren. They braved the enemy's bullets. Charge bravely. Succession after succession. Heroic killing. At this time. The warship of the Yangtze River Sa Zhen Bing. Suddenly a heavy artillery shot was fired at the people's army. A burst of shells sent smoke to the ranks of the people's army. The fire is shining. The Nationalist army suffered heavy casualties. I had to stop the attack for the time being.

Soon. Phoenix Mountain artillery position of the People's Army. Aoyama artillery position shelling warships. The enemy ships had no choice but to return fire. Fierce firing from the ship on the shore. Only the water columns in the Yangtze River rose to the sky. Columns of water tightly surrounded the enemy's warships. Phoenix Mountain. The Aoyama artillery position was also shrouded in smoke. During an artillery battle. There were thousands of people watching the battle on the banks of the Yangtze River. Whenever an enemy ship is seen to be hit by a bullet and on fire. People applauded. Loud applause.

The people's army on the shore took advantage of the situation to attack again. The Qing army couldn't resist it. They all retreated. along the train tracks. There happened to be an empty car parked on the railway line. The Qing army scrambled to climb onto the train. The train honks its horn. Rumble north. The train fled on one side. While a dense stream of bullets came down from the train. Most of the people in the army have no combat experience. I don't know how to hide myself. Many of the civilian soldiers were wounded and killed by the Qing army. Plus the bullets will run out. It's been half a day. The soldiers were hungry and tired. Some people don't listen to orders. Successively go back to rest.

The tenacious death squad did not retreat. They hid in a rice paddy on the side of the train tracks. Gong Ren watched as he ran farther and farther into the sky, becoming a black dot on the train. said to Wei Jinshan, Tang Qingying, and Wang Dayan: "If the Qing soldiers fight back by train. The people's army retreated. Won't they fight as they please? We're stuck here. Beat them up happily."

Wang Dayan shouted: "I didn't expect the train to be so powerful. Running so fast. In the blink of an eye, it was gone. If only the train was back here. Can you stop it. There's really nothing you can do about it." Tang Qingying scolded: "This hateful train. If it weren't for the train. We've already caught up with the dog."

Wei Jinshan quietly crouched in front of the two steel rails. Carefully looked at the two steel rails and the sleepers one by one in a daze.

At this time. There are many figures shaking in the rice fields. Dangling and dangling. Many people stood up. A look at the male toughness. There were hundreds of them. There were both peasants and railroad workers. There are both businessmen and students. Gong Ren hurriedly and loudly dissuaded them, saying, "Please retreat quickly. There is a war going on here. The gun is merciless. It's troublesome to hang the flowers."

Not only did these people not go. Instead, some people came forward. A man who looked like a railroad worker walked up to Gong Ren and said, "Beat the dog. Everyone has a share. We can't just watch the excitement." Gong Ren smiled and said. He said, "Master's surname." The railroad worker said, "My name is Liu Renxiang. He is a worker at the Liujiamiao Station Iron Works." Gong Ren asked, "Master Liu, you are an expert. This Qing army chased after him. It's by train. Won't we have a cure for them?" Liu Renxiang shouted loudly: "Why can't I do it. Pick up the railway. If they catch up. Overturned. Stoned to death and killed those shit."

Gong Ren Daxi. Say, "It's a good idea to pick up the railroad. But we're soldiers. I won't pick it up." Liu Renxiang shouted. He said, "We'll take care of it." We are all railroad workers. Since you can build a railway. will pick up the railroad." Gong Ren shouted, "Okay. Then it's all up to Master Liu."

Liu Renxiang waved his hand into the air. More than 10 railroad workers came at once. Liu Renxiang said loudly: "We must not let the Qing dog take the train to chase our people's army. Tear it down for him." All the workers responded. Some took out wrenches. Some took out pickaxes. Got to the railway. Remove the screws when you see them. When I saw the road spike, I got up.

Death squad members and people watching the excitement also rushed to the roadbed. Help these railroad workers. Soon. The screws and road spikes have been completely disassembled.

Liu Renxiang squatted on the sleeper again. He shouted at everyone, "Come and help," and everyone followed his example. Squatted on the sleeper. Hold the rail with your hands. Liu Renxiang shouted: "One, two" Everyone worked together. So he moved the rails out a little bit. Liu Renxiang shouted again: "One, two" Everyone moved the rail out a little more.

These two times. The rails have been moved half a foot. Liu Renxiang shouted and said, "Okay. Let's see if the dog is still on the train."

That's when it happened. In the distance, a train rumbled from the north. Drove this way.

Gong Ren hurriedly beckoned everyone to hurry down the railway. Hidden in the endless rice fields on one side of the railway. In a blink of an eye. The train full of Qing troops drove in front of him. The locomotive drove off the rails. The wheels were pressed against the sleepers. There was a "crunch" sound. Soon tilted to the side. Crookedly, he planted himself headlong in the rice field. I can't turn it on anymore. But the back compartment is still under tremendous speed and inertia. One pressed the other. Keep crashing forward. The Qing soldiers in the carriage cried wolf for a while. Crushed to death, hit to death, squeezed to death. Those who didn't die quickly fled out of the carriage. He was hit head-on by the daredevils in the rice field. Narrowly escaped the bullet. Desperately, they fled to the north.

Gong Ren raised his arms and shouted: "Kill." The daredevils rushed out of the rice paddies one after another. Rush towards the Qing troops in the train who tried to resist and escape. At the back of the line were some railroad workers. Hand holding a wrench. The pickaxe also rushed forward with the team. Behind them were some citizens and peasants who shouted in unison and watched the battle. The Qing soldiers were not killed. It's to raise your hands and surrender. Soon. The battle is over. Took an inventory of the battlefield. Wiped out more than 300 Qing troops.

Early morning of October 19th. There are more than 3,000 infantry, artillery, engineering and cavalry of the civilian army. Storm Liujiamiao again. When the team rushed to the front of the main position of Liujiamiao. Six warships moored in the Yangtze River Risa Zhenbing. Suddenly a heavy bombardment towards the people's army. Dozens of huge fleet guns exerted great power. Sometimes it shines like a salute flower. Sometimes it's when you're done firing and I'm firing again. It's like plum blossoms. One after another opened around the positions of the people's army.

All the people's troops were bombarded by the black shells that flew from the sky. The earth-shattering loud bang was intimidating. They all lay on the ground and didn't dare to move. Gong Ren also hurriedly ordered the death squad to stop attacking. to dodge the immense lethality of these artillery fires.

Stopped for a while. Gong Ren sounds a little wrong. Although the artillery fire was extremely fierce. But it's all far from here. You can't blow up the people's army at all. He looked up again and looked closely. It was found that the shells had fallen on the periphery of the People's Army. It's like a wall of fire. Rising smoke. Bursts of terrifying fire. But it didn't do any harm to the people's army.

Gong Ren poked Tang Qingying and said, "I don't think it's right. How the guns of the warships are different today and yesterday . I don't know what to do." Tang Qingying was also carefully observing the landing point of the Qing army's shells. Said happily: "I see that these navy are stupid . I won't be able to shoot anymore. It must have scared the hell out of us. Let's attack."

Wei Jinshan snorted and said, "I don't think they are on the right track. It's extremely accurate. Don't you see? The shells all landed on the side of the line. That's the perfect head. If they shoot at the ranks. I've already beaten the people's army."

Several people are wondering. The Phoenix Mountain and Castle Peak artillery positions counterattacked the enemy ships. Dozens of soaring columns of water weave through the enemy's fleet. Suddenly a shell hit a ship. A blaze of fire flickered. Several Qing soldiers were swept into the river. The warships panicked at first sight. They all turned their bows one after another. Head downstream. Soon. It is getting farther and farther away from Liujia Temple.

After knocking out the enemy ships. The cannons of Phoenix Mountain and Qingshan began to shell the Qing army at Liujiamiao again. Liujia Temple is flat. And the artillery of the people's army in Phoenix Mountain and Qingshan is condescending. There was a thud. Only the ghosts and wolves on the Qing army position were cried. Lumps of broken dirt and rotten wood. The broken gun stump flew into the sky.

As soon as the cannon fire stopped. The People's Army launched a fierce attack on Liujiamiao. Three death squads rushed to the front. The large forces followed closely. The Qing army couldn't resist it. Begin to retreat. The people's army is getting braver and braver. Fought into the train station and various streets.

Tang Qingying led the death squad. Just lunge forward. See a long and narrow lot ahead. On both sides is the deep water of the lake. It stretched for twelve or thirteen miles. Only then did I arrive at a large flat area at the mouth of the mouth. The Qing troops scrambled for their lives. trampling each other on narrow railway lines. The guns and bullets that were carried were wrapped in luggage and thrown everywhere. And these things blocked the way for the rout to escape. So that they can only see the stitches. Wolves rush to the pigs.

Tang Qingying chased after her ass. Chased to the vicinity of an iron bridge. Met with stubborn resistance from the Qing army. only then did he stop his position.

This battle completely occupied the Liujia Temple. More than 140 tents abandoned by the Qing army were seized. More than 600 stones of grain. More than 100 horses. 1 locomotive. 10 wagons and a lot of mountain artillery ammunition. The People's Army hoisted a nine-pointed and eighteen-star flag on the captured locomotive. Several wagons are loaded with loot. After the railroad was repaired. Drove back to the city. The common people of Hankow. All hold red flags to celebrate victory. Both sides of the railway along Xinsheng Road. It was all packed with reveling crowds.

Gong Ren happily looked out the window. Suddenly, I saw some monks. Put your hands together. With his eyes closed and his head bowed, he silently prayed for the revolutionary army. Suddenly, a familiar face flashed. Gong Ren pulled Tang Qingying and said, "Look. Take a look. How can I see that there is a person in the monk who looks like Bi Yongnian?" Tang Qingying hurriedly stretched out her head to look at it again. Helplessly, the train has already gone a long way. I can't see that monk anymore.

Gong Ren said: "It's been five or six years since I said goodbye to Bi Yongnian. I wonder about him. I don't know how he's been all these years." Tang Qingying said: "What is he doing here? Isn't it here to support the revolution?" Gong Ren said, "I think so. The Wuchang Uprising shook the whole country. Even a monk who is a monk. I can't help but move my mortal heart. Plus the support of workers, peasants, and students. I think. This revolution will be a success."

Tang Qingying ridiculed Gong Ren and said: "When the Huanghuagang Uprising failed. I don't know who it is. There was a complete loss of faith in the revolution. Crying and screaming that there will be no more revolution." Gong Ren raised his hand at her pretending to be angry. Say, "You little girl. It's really a pot that doesn't open and which pot to mention. See I don't hit you." Tang Qingying also pretended to shrink her neck and said, "I changed it. Changed. Isn't it okay yet?"

The two of them frolicked for a while. Gong Ren suddenly remembered what happened on the battlefield. said to Tang Qingying: "You say. In today's battle. The Qing army's naval guns hit so no-head. Is there something going on inside? If only they were the same as yesterday. I'm afraid the battle of Liujiamiao is another matter."

Tang Qingying frowned and said, "I also think Sa Zhenbing is a little abnormal today. Only one shot. He ran away in a panic." Wei Jinshan snorted and said, "Then you still need to ask. There must be something wrong with the Navy. If the Navy and Zhang Biao join forces. We can still beat Liujiamiao."

Gong Ren smiled and said, "It's not a loss for Liang Qichao's high staff. All of a sudden, you can see that the problem is coming."

The three of them were talking and laughing. I feel very happy.
