On this day, 184 years ago, July 28, 1841 (June 11, 1841 in the lunar calendar), Emperor Daoguang ordered the coastal provinces to withdraw their troops. On July 28, 1841, Emperor Daoguang requested from Qishan and ordered the coastal provinces to withdraw their troops. During the Opium War, because Emperor Daoguang listened to Qishan's false report and believed that after the signing of the Guangzhou Peace Treaty, Britain had withdrawn its troops, the war had ended, and the world was peaceful, he ordered the coastal provinces to abolish the officers and soldiers transferred to the country on July 28. In early August, when Yu Qian, the governor of Liangjiang, learned that the British army was preparing to reappear in Zhejiang, he petitioned for a postponement of the withdrawal of troops from Zhejiang and Jiangsu. The fatuous Emperor Daoguang actually criticized Yu Qian and said,"Don't be moved by the rhetoric, which will lead to the cost of the army." Therefore, in late August, a new attack was launched against the British army, the war resumed again, and China was completely in a passive position to be beaten. Although many patriotic soldiers fought bloody resistance before the battle, the situation was ultimately unable to be restored due to the corruption of the entire politics and the abandonment of armaments.
