三十一年，移湖廣總督，未行，尋奏：「副將趙宏榜等赴孟連、耿馬剿逐莽匪，鎮臣烏爾登額赴滾弄江口。 In the thirty-first year he was transferred to Governor-General of Huguang but had not yet set out when he soon memorialized: "Brigadier Zhao Hongbang and others have gone to Menglian and Gengma to pursue and drive off the Mang bandits, while Commander Wu Erden'e has gone to the mouth of the Gunong River.

副將趙宏榜慫恿之，遂下道、鎮、府、州合議，亦謂寇勢大，邊釁不可開，總兵烏爾登額阻尤力，應琚滋不懌。 Brigadier Zhao Hongbang urged him on; he then convened a joint consultation of circuits, commands, prefectures, and departments. They too said the enemy force was large and border war must not be opened; Regional Commander Wu Erden'e opposed most strongly, and Yingju grew increasingly displeased.

其時宏榜頓新街，卻走。 At that time Hongbang was stationed at Xinjie and retreated.

會福靈安先被命廉軍事，具言宏榜諸人失守狀，應琚亦劾德成等遲留不進，於是俱逮問，而以楊寧為提督，且以應琚不勝任，召明瑞代統其軍。 At the time Fuling'an had already been ordered to investigate military affairs in detail; he reported how Hongbang and others had lost their posts. Yingju also impeached Decheng and others for delay in advancing; they were all arrested and brought up for interrogation. Yang Ning was made Regional Commander-in-Chief, and because Yingju was unfit for his post, Ming Rui was summoned to take command of the army.
