The Han Wang rebel army, with hundreds of warships, has entered the Yangtze River and is approaching Wuchang Prefecture! The government navy on the Yangtze River has been wiped out, and the remnants of the navy have either surrendered and been captured, or fled the Yangtze River basin; the enemy fleet is sailing unimpeded, and it is expected to reach Zhili in seven or eight days, or even shorter!
After seeing the urgent news in the East Warm Pavilion, Emperor Zhu Gaochi could only sigh.
Seven or eight days, are there only seven or eight days left for him to rule? Maybe it can be longer, if the imperial army in the capital can temporarily stop the rebels...

After a while, someone came out with hot water, and Qingyuan went out to bring it back; he helped Daoyan sit down on a chair and placed a wooden basin at Daoyan's feet.While busying himself, Qingyuan said, "Since the Hongxi period, you have hardly attended court, but have become even more overworked. You are old, you must take care of yourself."Daoyan glanced at the book Dao Yu Lu placed under the cabinet, sighed slightly, and a layer of worry covered his triangular eyes.

He looked at the south bank of the river on the right, knowing that the land belonged to Zhili.The bulging sails were hung high in the air; below the deck, the wheels of the two waterwheels were turning in the river, and white waves were spinning around the wheels. The soldiers pedaling the waterwheels sang "Yo Hey" in a rhythmic manner. The ship was rising and falling in the waves, sailing very fast along the eastward river.At this moment, the general on the deck shouted, "Taipingzhou City!"Zhu Gaoxu immediately stood up from his chair, walked to the side of the boat, leaned on the wooden railing and looked south.

In the fog, drums and trumpets sounded, and the horses and men made noises, so it was unclear how many troops the King of Han had."Today's fog came so suddenly!" a general's voice said in the distance. Zhu Gaoxu heard the voice but could not see the man's face clearly.Zhu Gaoxu waited for a while under the central army flag, and then a scout came to report, "Your Majesty, the enemy has broken camp and is marching south!""Message to the entire army, advance slowly and in an orderly manner, advance one and a half miles, and enter the designated battlefield!"
