Outside the city, after receiving the secret report from the Xinguang Restoration Association, the new army to Xiong Chengji immediately summoned the main backbone of the uprising overnight and announced that the attack was initiated by the Ma camp and the Artillery Battalion. The artillery Battalion led by Chen Yongchang and the Ma camp Li Yuchun refused to join the revolutionary army, so he was shot dead by the rebel army on the spot. The rebel army successfully met with a part of the infantry battalion stationed outside Anqing City and immediately attacked Anqing City.

I have to say that Zhu Jiabao has a good idea in restricting the New Army Revolutionary Party...

Speaking of October of the Wushen year (November 1908), the Qing court mobilized the Eighth Town in Hubei, the Ninth Town in Nanyang, and the Thirty-first Mixed Association of Anhui to conduct autumn training in Taihu County, Anhui. Yinchang, the Right Minister of the Army Department, and Duan Fang, the Governor of Liangjiang, were appointed as the ministers of the military parade, and envoys from various countries to China and military officials were invited to visit the military exercises.

Xiong Chengji believed that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and tentatively planned to launch an uprising in November. So he decided to take the Taihu Qiucao to launch an uprising. They established the command center of the Yang Mansion behind the Ten Ancestral Temple in the northwest corner of Anqing. Fan Chuanjia was sent to Nanjing to contact the revolutionaries in the Ninth Town of Nanyang. During the Ninth Town's stationed in Anqing, the two new army revolutionaries were closely connected and agreed to take advantage of the Taihu Qiucao to launch an uprising and kill the Qing officials who inspected Qiucao in one fell swoop. Of course, I heard that the Qing emperor would also visit Qiucao. If possible, it would be better to kill the Qing emperor.

The Governor of Liangjiang, Rui, attached great importance to the suppression of the revolutionary party. He quickly discovered the situation through spies and sent a telegram to Zhu Jiabao to handle it carefully. This was also the reason why the Ninth Town of Nanyang left Anqing in a hurry. Zhu Jiabao did not dare to neglect it and immediately investigated and eliminated hidden dangers.

The new army stationed outside Anqing City was temporarily organized as the 31st mixed association. Anhui originally planned to train a town in the National New Army. In the 31st year of Guangxu (1905), the governor Chengxun requested to adapt the training system and temporarily train the Armies Association. In the 34th year of Guangxu (1908), it was trained. Because it failed to train into a town as originally planned, it was named the 31st mixed association. The association was under the 61st and 62nd standard. At the beginning of the establishment of the association, a large number of revolutionary parties were involved, and there were also a group of middle and upper-level officers who sympathized with the revolution.

Zhu Jiabao's first blow to the new army was to withdraw Gu Zhongchen, the co-democratic commander who sympathized with the revolution, and replaced him with his confidant general Yu Dahong. At the same time, he cleaned up the two revolutionary parties. For cadres who might be the revolutionary party or the revolutionary party, soldiers were swept into the sixty-two standards, so that almost all the revolutionary parties within the sixty-first standards were eliminated, and the military power of the sixty-first standards was firmly grasped. The revolutionary party could hardly pour in. With such strong armed surveillance around him, Xiong Chengji had to change his original plan to join the ninth town and conquer Anqing to conquer Nanjing. Because the prerequisite for all this was that the revolutionary party could grasp the absolute military power of the new army in Anqing!

Not only that, Zhu Jiabao also has strict control over weapons and ammunition. Needless to mention the powerful artillery, the new army is not allowed to be in charge of use. If there are any exercises or battles that require artillery, it can only be allocated and used with his personal approval, and the next door must be followed by taming the personal soldiers to monitor it.

Besides, the new army's standard weapon "Hanyang Made" fast gun is very powerful and can be regarded as an excellent gun of this era. Unfortunately, the supply of ammunition was firmly controlled by the governor's yamen. Five bullets are quantified every day for shooting training, and it is not easy to hide something in secret. Should the soldiers still be trained? Should the new army still be able to strengthen combat effectiveness?

The new army attacked fiercely, and the Anqing City Defense Battalion was shocked. Someone was sent to report to the deputy yamen to seek help. While fighting to the new army was not fierce, it could be said to be a sparse attack. Xiong Chengji was angry and anxious. At this time, outside the city, he could clearly hear the riots in the city. The bright flames that reflected half of the sky were even more obvious!

"Brothers in the patrol battalion, please put down their weapons and surrender. Our revolutionary new army is fighting to overthrow this corrupt Qing Dynasty. The Han people do not fight against the Han people. I hope you can know the party that is generally joining the dispute!" Knowing that the time is fleeting, it will not be a matter of time before we want to take down the city gate. In desperation, we have to use the 'propaganda and shouting offensive'!

I knew that the riots in the city were caused by the Xin Guangfu Society, and it was a lie to say that I had no anger in my heart. These guys were too much. They didn't come to inform the Xin Jun before the uprising. They came to inform the Xin Jun again after the uprising, which made their actions seem extremely hurrying and messy. If they had known that Xin Guangfu Society had to take action, would the Western Army, who had prepared in advance, be unable to do anything to Anqing's not-tall city wall? It's really hateful...

"Haha, get out of your way, come if you have the ability, you can only show off your words!" The police officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion burst into laughter from the city wall. How could they mean to "submit"? There are many grudges between the patrol battalion and the new army, and there are many frictions and even armed fights. They have accumulated endless anger in their hearts. Every time they fight, the new army relies on being more valued and gained the upper hand. Now they have the opportunity to ridicule these proud men. Is there any reason why the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion are unhappy to take them?

Besides, even if there is no grudge between the two sides, the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion do not intend to "submit" to the revolutionary party. Look at the new army, Ang, who said it nicely, overthrows the corrupt Qing court's rule? How to overthrow it depends on your less than a thousand men and those broken guns? Haha, it's such a big joke. Even Anqing City can't be captured. Isn't it a dead end to follow you?

The new army officers and soldiers were sarcastic and angry when the patrol battalion looked down upon. They raised their guns and shot them over with a dense rain of bullets. The patrol battalion officers and soldiers on the city wall laughed and retracted, raising their guns and firing against the new army at the siege. However, the new army officers and soldiers only had five bullets in their hands. After a moment of fighting, they ran out of ammunition. They could only look at An Qing Heiyou's city wall gritted their teeth and cursed.

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion were even more unscrupulous. The brave ones even leaned out and successfully shot the torches outside the city. Xiong Chengji clenched his fists and ignited a rage in his eyes. However, the situation was not angering. He gritted his teeth and ordered his comrades to give up attacking Anqing for the time being, and first took the Linghuzui ammunition depot outside the city to replenish the ammunition!

Just as the Western Army Revolutionary Party outside the city was in fierce fire with the guard patrol battalion on the city wall, Zhu Jiabao, the seriously injured governor, woke up slowly under the doctor's treatment. Flashes of noise and crisp gunfire immediately came into his ears, and he suddenly remembered that the situation in front of him was not right. He did not care about the biting pain in his body and hurriedly called for the new army commander Yu Dahong...
