OOC: I wondering how I lost conscripts in the yellow river campaign as their were none involved directly in that battle or how any Taiping troops got across a river blocked by my navy well at least how most of them did and how did coastal cities falling to the Taiping caused loss of ships considering they should all have been in the yellow river.
The entire area, including land north of the yellow river, was controlled by me, prior to this turn. Also, 50 ships will have a hard time blocking 2 million men.
