Because there were foreign generals in the Chinese side of the war at that time, there was a representative in the Taiping Army named Ling Chui. Because the water army of the Qing Dynasty controlled the upper reaches of the Yangtze River at that time, the Taiping Army had to have warships to cross this waterway. Later, a ship of the Qing Dynasty sailed for Shanghai, so Ling Chui led the Taiping Army to rob the ship, which was later named Taiping.

Diao was originally a British navy, and began to do business after retiring. Once he took a boat to China for purchasing, which happened to be the time when the Taiping Army captured the Qing army camp. He found that many businessmen were willing to do business in places under the jurisdiction of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. At this time, he learned that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was very strict in management and simple in folk customs. The whole area is a bustling scene, which is tens of millions of times better than the Qing army at that time. I admired the rule of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and went to Xiucheng, Li See.

Although the British army hated Li Xiucheng, they received him in a friendly way, which made him very moved. Since then, he joined the Taiping Army. Due to the special background at that time, he was unable to buy and sell arms between the Qing Dynasty and Britain. Therefore, Mr. Hui did not become an army general, but chose to do logistics work and purchase arms, food and other materials for the Taiping Army as a businessman.

Later, the old man bought a batch of arms and food from Shanghai and transported it safely to the capital of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom by ship. Later, the Xiang army of the Qing Dynasty controlled the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. In order to get through this waterway, there must be warships. Later, there happened to be a Qing Dynasty ship sailing for Shanghai, so Ling Lao took the ship with the army and gave it to the Taiping Army.
