Usurping the Qing Dynasty: My first love was Cixi

Chapter 107: Capture the city and achieve extraordinary success! Good news, good news!

Rushing directly in front of Su Ye, Jiang Ning General Tuo Ming'a grabbed Su Ye's hand and refused to let go.

"My brother Su Ye, you really shocked us all."

"How did you train these heavenly soldiers and generals? It's only been eight months, and you've become so powerful."

"Before, there were rumors that you were a double star of civil and military affairs. I didn't believe it at all. I thought it was nonsense. Now I believe it, I believe it completely. Whoever dares not to believe it in the future, I will slap him in the face."

Then, he visited Su Ye's army very politely and restrainedly.

Because he wanted to express his appreciation and to express his position to Su Ye, I have no intention of robbing your army, and I don't even have the idea of ​​interfering with your command.

Good, good!

This military uniform is beautiful. The military uniforms on our side are completely stinky dog ​​shit.

This young man is full of energy. You can tell at a glance that he is a real king's division.

This army is so good, it's just what I dream of.

This Jiangning general's praise is endless, as long as there is something to praise, he will praise it desperately.

He praised too much, and he really couldn't find anything to praise, so he started to praise it forcefully.

So sometimes, corrupt officials and mediocre officials also have their lovable points, otherwise how can they climb so high?

Came to Wang Shiqing.

Wang Shiqing saluted and said: "I am Wang Shiqing, the humble one, and I meet General Jiangning."

He has a strong sense of respect and inferiority in his mind. No matter what kind of person Tuo Ming'a is, he is a first-rank official after all.

But Tuo Ming'a is very cold to Wang Shiqing.

Because Wang Shiqing is the deputy commander of the new army, and he once competed with Su Ye for the first place in the martial arts examination. According to Tuo Ming'a's instinctive political thinking, this deputy commander is used by the upper level to check and balance the commander, and the first and second in command must be at odds.

Therefore, Wang Shiqing is probably Su Ye's political enemy, so Tuo Ming'a chose to be cold to him and just laughed it off.

Su Ye hurriedly whispered in his ear: "Shiqing is my own brother. He made the first contribution in the battle at the Fairy Temple Camp just now."

Suddenly, Tuo Ming'a became intimate.

"The general is so powerful. We don't have such a powerful general in the Jiangbei Camp." Tuo Ming'a patted Wang Shiqing on the shoulder and said: "Follow your Yishuai and work hard. You will be granted the title of marquis and general in the future."

Suddenly, Wang Shiqing was embarrassed.

He was still sincere and could not adapt to such a realistic political climate.

It was still comfortable to follow Yishuai, and every word he said was real.

Then, Tuo Ming'a always held Su Ye's arm and refused to let Lei Yizhen, Dexing'a, and Weng Tongshu contact Su Ye.

After visiting Su Ye's army, he immediately ordered: "Hurry up, hurry up, bring the best supplies, good wine and good meat, and reward the king's division sent by the emperor. Make sure the brothers eat and drink well."

Wang Shiqing came to Su Ye and said: "Wing Marshal, then I will lead the army back to the Fairy Temple camp."

Su Ye nodded and said: "Okay."

There will definitely be a celebration banquet next. He originally wanted to drag Wang Shiqing to participate, but the other party already felt embarrassed, so he didn't force it.

Below Wang Shiqing are Bai Qi, Wang Tianyang, and Zhao Bu.

The commander of the artillery battalion is a foreign mercenary, who is not easy to lead.

"Zhao Bu, you come." Su Ye said.

"Yes!" Zhao Bu was excited.

It was indeed right to follow the Wing Marshal. The next celebration banquet, the Wing Marshal still chose to take me.

………………………………………………

Then the Shaobo Town Camp held a grand celebration banquet.

All the military generals above the sixth rank participated, and there were more than a hundred people.

In the entire Jiangbei camp, there are seven or eight people above the third rank.

Su Ye is only a fourth rank official, so he has to sit according to his rank.

But Tuo Ming'a held him tightly and shouted, "You sit at the top, at the top."

Su Ye wanted to refuse, but Tuo Ming'a held him with both hands and said, "Well, if you want to do this, Brother Su Ye, I will sit with you wherever you sit, and we can eat at the doorstep without any problem."

Seeing this scene, Weng Tongshu and De Xing'a secretly said shameless in their hearts.

You, Tuo Ming'a, are at least a first rank official, but you are so flattering to a fourth rank official.

Su Ye refused in every possible way, but was forced to sit in the most honorable position by Tuo Ming'a and Lei Yizhen.

"Brother Su Ye, rank is bullshit."

"Whoever has the most ability will sit in the highest position."

"You are a member of the royal family and the savior of everyone. If you don't sit in the first position, who will?"

Then, Tuo Ming'a hugged Su Ye and said, "Generals, look carefully. This is Brother Su Ye, the commander of the new army, the savior of our Jiangbei camp, and the emperor's close minister. He has a bright future. Please curry favor with him. Do you understand?"

All of a sudden, all the generals below the fifth rank bowed neatly and said, "Greetings, Brother Su Ye."

Those above the third and fourth ranks were much more reserved. How could they curry favor with him in front of everyone?

Next, they started drinking and feasting.

From beginning to end, Zhao Bu stood behind Su Ye, responsible for pouring wine, picking up dishes, and handing towels.

Su Ye asked him to sit down for the feast. After all, he was also a sixth rank, and his sister was the emperor's favorite concubine.

Tuo Ming'a also arranged a seat for Zhao Bu.

But the other party refused to sit down and just wanted to serve behind Su Ye. Tuomin'a let him do that and even secretly gave him a thumbs up, indicating that this kid has a bright future.

Real first- and second-grade officials don't care that much about the concubines in the palace.

First, there is no use in currying favor.

Second, Qing emperors often married Eight Banner girls from small families.

In the future, the queen mothers of the two palaces will listen to politics from behind the curtain, which is something no one would have imagined.

Next, everyone exchanged cups and had a great time.

Midway, a middle-aged scribe came forward and bent down to propose a toast to Su Yi.

"This is our God of Wealth, Bai Yan!" Tuoming said.

Su Yi quickly stood up, raised the cup, bent towards the other party and said, "Su Yi, I have met Mr. Bai."

Tuo Ming'a said: "Old Bai, could it be that... your daughter married the brother of Su Yi's brother?"

This middle-aged scribe is officially Su Yi's in-laws, the great salt merchant Bai Yan.

Bai Yan said: "Bai is lucky enough to be married to Brother Su Yi's family."

Tomin'a immediately blamed: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Why didn't you say it earlier?"

After saying that, Tominga stepped forward and grabbed Bai Yan's arm and said, "It's okay if you don't mention it. You're still secretly hiding on the table behind. Are you trying to avoid drinking?"

"Come here, add a position to the chief position."

Bai Yan, a big salt merchant, quickly declined and said: "You must not do it. There is a difference between superiority and inferiority. To have Bai take the position of a mere businessman in this hall tonight is already an overstep. You must not do it."

Su Yi said: "Mr. Bai, we will talk later."

Then, Bai Yan retreated to his position.

After the banquet, before it was too late to talk to Bai Yan, Su Yi was dragged into the study by Tominga again.

Su Yi knew that the next conversation was really important.

………………………………………………………………

Tomin'a was already a little drunk.

He poured himself a cup of strong tea and also poured a cup for Su Yi.

"Brother Su Yi, I just received a letter from the capital and learned about you and Crown Prince Boyan." Toming'a held several letters in his hand.

"There is a letter from the emperor and a secret letter from the monk king." Toming'a held up the secret letter and said: "The letter from the monk king made it very clear that he asked me to take care of Prince Boyan. Although it was not stated clearly, the meaning was very clear. I will suppress you."

"The Monk King is my old superior. I was under the Monk King's tent when he beat Lin Fengxiang."

"However, I am here to express my position to you." Tomin'a said: "I am firmly on your side. We are not even neutral."

"We just support you." Tomin'a said.

Then, he drank another cup of tea and said: "My position is very dangerous, and my life may even be at risk. In today's battle, if Brother Su Yi hadn't come to help, the main force of Jiangbei Camp would have been defeated long ago and countless people would have been wiped out. "

"Weng Tongshu and Dexing'a have already gathered a group of ginseng for me. If Yangzhou is just lost, I may not die, but if the main force of the entire Jiangbei camp is wiped out, then I will be dead. I'm not afraid of your jokes, I even thought about how to commit suicide, but I just couldn’t do it.”

"So, Brother Su Yi has been helpful to me. We will definitely stand by your side this time."

"The Monk King is high up, too far away from us to reach. But Brother Su Yi, you are really by my side."

"Weng Tongshu came to talk to you, didn't he just want you to follow him and join me? But you let him hit a snag, and you won the battle at the Fairy Temple today. You can explain it to the emperor. There is no need to take risks. came to my rescue, but you came anyway."

"If you don't repay such kindness, are you still a human being?"

Then, Tomin'a took a box and opened it, revealing a thick stack of banknotes inside.

Tuoming'a counted out a stack of 150,000 taels and placed it directly in front of Su Yi.

"It's a brother. Just accept the money and don't say anything." Tuominga said.

Su Yi refused to accept it.

Tomin'a said: "If you don't accept it, then I won't be able to say anything else."

"If you don't accept the money, you just don't want to make friends with us."

In desperation, Su Yi had no choice but to accept the stack of banknotes.

Tuoming'a then beamed and said: "Is this right? If you don't accept money, I will feel uneasy. Qianli is an official just for money. He has taken a lot over the years, so he feels a little guilty for giving this little. ”

Su Yi said: "Generally, only subordinates give money to their superiors. How can a superior give money to his subordinates?"

Tomin'a said: "Don't we have something to ask of you? Only after you collect the money can I talk about it."

Su Yi said: "Commander, don't say anything, I know! Whether you give me money or not, my memorial only has one sentence: Commander of Jiangbei Camp, don't change!"

After a while, Tomin'a said happily: "I've been waiting for your words, brother."

It's so enjoyable to communicate with smart people. You don't have to wait for you to say what you want to ask for, they just say what you want directly.

Brother Su Yi is so frivolous and very loyal.

Then, Tomin'a said: "Without further delay, how about we write the memorial immediately?"

Su Yi said: "Okay, you write one, I write one, and then we jointly write another."

Tomin'a said: "Okay, okay!"

Next, the two began to write the memorial.

There is only one content in Su Yi's memorial. Although Tuoming'a lost Yangzhou and the Jiangbei camp was destroyed in the previous battles, he still kept the main force and traded space for time. He also said that people are more important than the earth. If people exist, the earth will perish. Both people and earth will survive. People will perish if they perish.

Moreover, Tuo Ming'a already had a clear plan for retaking Yangzhou and rebuilding the Jiangbei camp, so it was not appropriate to change people.

After writing, Su Ye handed the memorial to Tuo Ming'a.

After reading it, Tuo Ming'a gave a thumbs up.

"Well written, well written, you are worthy of being called Wenquxing."

Then, Su Ye added several sentences after the memorial.

They all described Tuo Ming'a's various shortcomings, hoping that the emperor would admonish him.

After showing it to Tuo Ming'a again, the other party was stunned, and then quickly understood.

This way of writing seems to be realistic. After all, this is a secret memorial to the emperor. If you praise someone too much, the emperor will suspect that you are colluding?

Next, Tuo Ming'a finished writing the memorial and handed it to Su Ye.

It fully describes Su Ye's results in today's battle. But later it also said that Su Ye was arrogant because of his high achievements. He, Tuo Ming'a, was respectful to the virtuous and humble, but Su Ye was still arrogant and rude.

Of course, Weng Tongshu and Dexing'a would definitely submit secret reports, saying that Su Ye and Tuo Ming'a were colluding.

In short, none of this is important. Winning the battle is the most important thing.

Next, the two people's joint memorials were very formal.

They expressed that the cooperation between the two sides was very pleasant, and they had some prospects for the next battle.

After the three memorials were written.

They were immediately put into the box and then sealed with wax.

Someone was sent immediately to deliver them as quickly as possible.

It was said to be an express delivery of 600 miles, but in fact it would be faster because it was delivered via the canal route.

Tuo Ming'a said: "It's really strange. Brother Su Ye took the sea route, while Prince Boyan took the canal route, and there was no delay. He should have arrived by now. Why haven't we seen his army yet?"

Yes, Su Ye was also very curious about this.

Why is there no trace of Boyan's army now?

Three memorials alone are not enough.

Next, Tuo Ming'a wrote another victory report.

Great victory in Shaobo Town!

This thing is the most important.

In this great victory report, Su Ye's contribution was not overshadowed at all.

It was even written in great detail.

And it was written brilliantly. From the time Su Ye came to report, the rebel army suddenly attacked. Su Ye's new army ran thousands of miles and had no time to breathe. They immediately marched and marched sixteen miles in less than an hour. They seized the Fairy Temple camp half a quarter of an hour in advance, and then fought against the four thousand rebels.

After more than an hour of fierce fighting, more than a thousand rebels were killed and more than two hundred of their own casualties.

Then, Su Ye's new army did not stop and immediately rushed north for ten miles to support the main force of Shaobo Town Camp. On the south bank of the river, they fought for more than an hour. Facing the rebel artillery fire, the formation was not disordered, and they were not afraid of danger. After several hours of fierce fighting, nearly two thousand rebels were killed.

In short, Su Ye's new army was written to be loyal and powerful, just like a great army.

Of course, it is hard to explain these nearly two thousand people, and it is impossible to calculate them at all.

In the end, this battle was a complete victory.

In the Shaobo Town Battle, a total of 6,000 rebels were wiped out, completely destroying the rebels' strategic intentions.

And this victory report needed many people to sign and seal.

Commander Tuo Ming'a, deputy commander Lei Yizhen, imperial envoy Weng Tongshu, deputy governor De Xing'a, and new army Su Ye.

Tuo Ming'a said: "Everyone, if you think there is no problem, this victory report will be sent to the capital as quickly as possible."

The commanders present all expressed no objection.

Because this victory report is basically true.

In any case, this battle was a real victory.

Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.

The emperor can also breathe a sigh of relief when he sees it, at least the situation in the Jiangbei camp will not collapse, it is considered stable.

In theory, it is enough to fight here.

It is also enough to explain to the emperor.

Tuo Ming said: "Brother Su Ye, how surprised do you think the emperor will be after receiving our victory report? Such a great victory was unthinkable before."

The only suspense now is where Boyan's Cavalry Battalion is?

…………………………………………………………

Su Ye and his father-in-law Bai Yan are having a secret conversation.

"Master Bai, did you suffer a great loss from the fall of Yangzhou this time?" Su Ye asked.

"Not bad." Bai Yan said: "Part of my family business is in Yangzhou and part is in Suzhou. Now the salt industry is not as profitable as before, so I started to plan other things a few years ago."

Su Ye certainly knew that a large part of it was smuggling, shipping, and cotton yarn business.

"Master Bai, according to your judgment, do we have a chance to recapture Yangzhou City in this battle?"

Bai Yan said: "Very slim."

Then, Bai Yan said: "I have entrusted the future of the family to my brother. We are a family. Then I will not be polite and tell the truth."

Su Ye said: "It should be so."

Bai Yan said: "Recapture Yangzhou City, it is impossible."

"At this time, the rebels are in Yangzhou City, with at least 20,000 to 30,000 defenders. You have also seen the main force of the Jiangbei camp. The defensive battle has been fought like this, and the siege battle will only be more unbearable. Although my brother's new army is powerful, the number of people is too small. If there are 10,000, you can still give it a try. But with only more than 1,000 people, don't even try."

Bai Yan said all the truth.

The new army won these two battles very brilliantly.

The first battle was won, but it was very dangerous. There was a moment when it was almost overturned.

The second battle was indeed won heartily, and almost a perfect battle loss ratio was achieved, but in this case, the time and place are favorable, which cannot be replicated.

If Su Ye really gets cocky and takes the new army to attack the city.

The consequences will be disastrous.

Bai Yan said: "Brother, you have won these two battles, which is enough to explain to the emperor. As for your claim to recapture Yangzhou, the emperor will probably just treat it as a joke."

Everyone regarded Su Ye's recapture of Yangzhou as a joke.

According to historical inertia, Qin Rigang would withdraw all his troops south after looting in Jiangbei and focus on attacking the Jiangnan camp.

By then, Yangzhou would be empty and could be easily recaptured.

But now the situation has changed. Shi Dakai has returned with enough troops, so Qin Rigang is not in a hurry to go south and is ready to completely annihilate the Jiangbei camp.

Therefore, Yangzhou City is not empty at this time, but has 20,000 to 30,000 defenders.

In this way, it is extremely difficult to capture Yangzhou.

Just as Bai Yan and Tuo Ming'a said, Su Ye's military exploits are enough to explain to the emperor.

But there is a variable here.

That is Boyan.

First, Su Ye said that he would take back Yangzhou, but he didn't do it. In this way, his words will not carry enough weight in the future.

Secondly, Su Ye's opponent is not only himself, but also Boyan Nemohu.

Until now, Boyan Nemohu's cavalry battalion has not appeared.

This is very wrong.

Su Ye said: "It's useless for me to just make merit, I have to beat Boyan Nemohu. Whoever wins between us can marry Princess Shouxi, and whoever wins will get more political resources next."

Bai Yan said: "According to what my brother said, Prince Boyan has less than two thousand cavalry, and he can't make military exploits comparable to yours."

According to common sense, this is the case.

But the entire Jiangbei battlefield is too chaotic.

Su Ye took the battlefield map and began to put himself in Boyan Nemohu's perspective.

How to break the situation?

How to beat Su Ye?

How to make greater contributions?

At the beginning, Su Ye didn't know much about the entire Jiangbei occupation, but now it is relatively clear.

He searched inch by inch on the map. If he were Boyan, what should he do?

Then, his eyes fell on a place!

Suddenly, he held his breath!

No way!

Because he really found a place where he could make great achievements.

Liuhe City, an important town in the north of Tianjing and the west of Yangzhou!

The Taiping Army needs to garrison two important strongholds in Jiangbei, Guazhou and Yangzhou.

Today, Qin Rigang led a large army to attack the Shaobo Town Camp, and at least more than 20,000 people were dispatched.

And the army had to be left to garrison Yangzhou and Guazhou.

So... Liuhe is empty.

However, Liuhe is very important. It is the throat of the Taiping Army in the north of Tianjing.

So, as long as Boyan Nemohu is bold enough and fast enough.

It is entirely possible to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to directly raid Liuhe and occupy Liuhe.

And at this moment, a voice came from outside.

"Brother Su Ye, the commander-in-chief asks you to see him immediately. There is important military information."

Su Ye immediately said goodbye to Bai Yan.

"Wait a moment!" Bai Yan took out a box and took out a thick stack of silver notes, a total of 200,000 taels, and handed it to Su Ye.

Su Ye wanted to refuse.

Bai Yan said: "Our whole family has staked our future on you, so don't be polite. I have a big business next, so the silver in my hand is not very handy. After this business is over, I can take out more silver."

"In troubled times, merchants' lives are cheap. I give you money for the prosperity of my family."

This is true. Su Ye was not polite and took the silver directly.

…………………………………………………………

Su Ye returned to the camp in Shaobo Town.

Tomin'a looked unhappy.

"Brother Su Ye, look, look..."

"Our Khorchin prince is amazing, amazing!"

Su Ye saw that it was a victory report.

It was sent by Boyan.

It said that Boyan led the army and fought for several hours, defeated the rebel defenders in Liuhe, and recaptured Liuhe City for the court.

Weng Tongshu and Dexing'a beside him shouted: "Great merit, extraordinary merit!"

"Sure enough, they were sent by the emperor, and they were really trained by the emperor himself. Brother Suye has made great contributions, and Prince Boyan over there has also made extraordinary contributions."

Dexing'a said: "But I don't know whose contribution is greater?"

Suddenly, everyone present was silent.

Tuoming'a said: "Brother Suye, let's come in and talk."

After entering the study, there were only two people. Tuoming'a did not hide his emotions and cursed directly.

"Brother Suye, who is this Boyan Nemohu? Who is he?"

"He should have reported to me, and his cavalry battalion should have joined my Jiangbei camp."

"Our battle situation is so critical, he should have led his troops to help immediately, but he didn't. He watched us being beaten, and his cavalry took the opportunity to go around behind the rebels and seize Liuhe."

"The main force of the rebels is on our side, fighting us. Liuhe City is of course empty, and he took the opportunity to seize the city and made great contributions."

"He is using us. We are fighting to the death and almost destroyed, but he took advantage of us."

"In the victory report, he said that he fought for several hours, eliminated 3,000 rebels, and seized Liuhe."

"Bullshit, how shameless are you? The total number of rebels in Jiangbei is very small. Half of them are in Yangzhou, and the other half are coming to fight us. If there are three thousand soldiers in Liuhe City, I will eat them alive. These two cities are almost empty cities."

Su Yi said: "Then did he contact Jiangnan Camp?"

Tuoming'a was stunned and said, "Brother Su Yi, you are really a master of tricks."

This is what makes Tomin'a the most angry.

I used to be under the command of the Monk King. When you, Boyan, came to the southern battlefield, you didn’t come to me. Instead, you went to the Jiangnan Camp?

Go to Xiang Rong instead?

Tuoming'a said: "After Boyan captured Liuhe City, Xiangrong sent his army across the river to the north and entered Liuhe City. He was shocked by the rebellion, so Qin Rigang will temporarily withdraw his army."

For the Taiping Army, Liuhe City was very important, directly north of Tianjing.

If Liuhe City is captured, the way for Qin Rigang's army to return to Tianjing will be blocked.

In history, something similar happened.

In the end, Qin Rigang still passed through Guazhou and crossed the Yangtze River south again.

Tuo Ming'a said: "Originally, I should be happy, because this way, the pressure on our Jiangbei camp will be reduced drastically, but I am very angry."

"First, it's not worth it for Brother Su Yi."

"The second is that it's not worth it for yourself."

"Brother Su Yi, I heard that you and Boyan are competing to see whose merit is greater. Whoever wins will get to marry Princess Shouxi?" Tominga asked.

Su Yi said: "Yes!"

Tuo Ming'a said: "Now Boyan's good news must have been sent out, and there must be people from Jiangnan Camp endorsing him. Objectively speaking, when the emperor sees these two reports, he will feel that Boyan has contributed a lot. Bigger.”

"In my opinion, Brother Su Yi must have made the greater contribution. I can clearly see your battle. You saved my entire Jiangbei camp's main force, but this is the case for this dynasty. Our battle If you win, it is also a defensive battle, and the enemy is defeated, while Boyan is a battle to capture the city, and the two are different."

"Brother Su Yi, I will immediately submit a memorial to claim credit for you, but... we also have to make other plans."

Of course I have to make other plans.

Su Yi said: "Commander, if I were Boyannamohu, I would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I would not just occupy one Liuhe city, because there is another city that is also empty."

Tomin'a trembled: "Xincheng? No way!"

Xincheng is also an important town in Jiangbei, and it happens to be stuck northeast of Tianjing.

After a moment, Tominga said: "Boyan can't be so sharp, right? This requires great courage."

What is really needed is courage and speed.

The difficulty is really not that great.

Both cities are considered empty.

Tuo Ming'a said: "Brother Su Yi, if Crown Prince Boyan really captures two cities in a row, then in this merit competition, he...he will definitely surpass you."

Therefore, there was only one way before Su Yi.

Take back Yangzhou City!

Yangzhou City is the core of the entire Jiangbei.

Only by recapturing Yangzhou City can we truly and completely overwhelm Boyannamohu.

However, there are tens of thousands of Yangzhou City defenders. It is extremely difficult and almost impossible to recapture Yangzhou City.

Tuo Ming'a said: "Brother Su Yi, with our strength, it is completely impossible to recapture Yangzhou City."

Su Yi fell into deep thought, her mind working rapidly.

Yes, now Qin Rigang has no intention of retreating south and heavily guards Yangzhou, so it is completely impossible to retake Yangzhou normally.

but……

The appearance of Boyanna Mohu changed the situation of the battle again.

Misfortunes are where blessings depend, and blessings are where misfortunes lie.

In order to defeat Su Yi, Boyanna Mohu seized the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, marched dangerously, and took advantage of the enemy's emptiness to seize two cities in a row, achieving a miraculous feat!

But in fact, to a certain extent, this also brought huge opportunities to Su Yi, and also laid huge hidden dangers for Boyan in the future.

Next, it will cause a series of chain reactions. Is it a good thing in a sense?

Can you think of a way to develop the situation in the direction that is most beneficial to Su Yi?

Good result, take back Yangzhou City.

The best result is not only to recapture Yangzhou City, but also...

Su Yi thought about it carefully. Did Boyan's move help him activate the chess game?

What's more, Boyan will completely lose his wife and lose his troops in the end?

………………

at the same time!

On the canal, more than ten speedboats kept going north.

These clippers were working at full speed to deliver these good news and memorials from the southern battlefield to the capital and to the emperor as quickly as possible.

…………………………

Note: The second update is here, and the update is still 15,000 today.

Dear benefactors, if you have monthly tickets, can you continue to give them to me? Please, please bow and kowtow!
