Chapter 195 Successful Genius Fateful Moment

Chapter 195 Success! Genius! A moment of destiny!

The Qing court seemed to be going relatively smoothly in the war in Anhui.

Shengbao's army had also entered Anhui and started to wipe out the Nian Army there.

Another person who rose to prominence in this war was Li Hongzhang.

This person had been following the successive governors of Anhui to organize militias over the years. He had made great contributions and became a prefect. Last time, he even made great contributions in recovering Luzhou. Later, he conquered Chaoxian and Hezhou and was awarded the title of Anchashi.

But the good times did not last long. Perhaps he was envied because he was promoted too quickly, and he was soon excluded in the officialdom.

Even his superior, Anhui Governor Fu Ji, took action against him. After Li Hongzhang's father passed away, Fu Ji could not wait to report to the court that Li Hongzhang was in mourning, so this popular newcomer went home to observe mourning.

According to the traces of history, this person should continue to be unlucky.

After Luzhou fell again in 1858, Li Hongzhang in history went to Nanchang to seek refuge with his brother Li Hanzhang. But in this world, Su Ye won the post of governor of Jiangxi, and Li Hanzhang failed to take the post of Nanchang grain station as in history. So Li Hongzhang failed to seek refuge with his brother Li Hanzhang.

In a difficult situation, he rose up directly, gathered the defeated soldiers in the capacity of the former minister of militia, and cooperated with the Hunan Army to prepare for the battle to recover Luzhou. (The capital of Anhui Province, today's Hefei, Anqing was moved here after being occupied by the Taiping Army)

Li Xubin was as brave as in history, leading the Hunan Army to conquer Qianshan, Tongcheng, and Shucheng, winning battles and recovering countless lost territories.

He fought all the way to Sanhe Town, 70 miles south of Luzhou City.

According to history, Li Xubin would die here at this time.

This town originally had no city walls. After the Taiping Army occupied the town, they built another city wall and nine fortresses.

The Sanhe Town defense line was the last line of defense of the Taiping Army in Luzhou.

After Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng conquered Anhui, they immediately dispatched troops to the south. Just like in history, they led their troops to leave Anhui and return to Jiangsu to attack Yangzhou, and once again attacked the Jiangbei Camp, leaving the defense lines of Luzhou and Sanhe Town to Wu Dinggui.

It has to be said that the intelligence work of the Taiping Army was also a piece of shit.

In history, Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng were really fierce. After conquering Anhui quickly, they conquered Yangzhou at the fastest speed and once again broke the Jiangbei Camp.

But now it is different.

This time the emperor was ruthless and sent three generals, Shengbao, Guiliang and Ronglu.

The Taiping Army knew nothing and still fought there according to the original plan.

In history, Li Xubin had suffered heavy casualties after conquering four cities in succession. When he arrived at Sanhe Town, he hesitated.

Don't know whether to fight? It should be rested and wait for reinforcements. But he saw that the main force of the Taiping Army in the Sanhe Town defense line was not there, so he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to capture the Sanhe Town defense line before the reinforcements arrived. After several days of desperate attacks and the loss of thousands of people, he barely captured three fortresses, and there were still six left.

At this time, Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng had already broken through the Jiangbei camp and led their army back, a full 100,000, to surround Li Xubin.

Then, Li Xubin's entire army was destroyed and died tragically on the battlefield.

The Hunan Army suffered almost the biggest defeat. Li Xubin was a famous general of his generation and became a stepping stone for Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng to become famous.

In this world, Su Ye hesitated for a long time whether to save Li Xubin.

Once he was saved, the Hunan Army would continue to grow.

But if he was not saved, the position of Anhui Governor would be taken away by others, and it was likely to be taken away by people in the court. At that time, it would be extremely difficult for Su Ye to pull him into the secret agreement of the seven provinces.

After hesitating for a long time, Su Ye decided to save him.

So he wrote a special letter to Li Xubin, asking him not to be reckless after arriving in Sanhe Town, and to attack after a complete rest.

Zeng Guofan warned, and Su Ye warned again.

So Li Xubin avoided the tragedy in history. After arriving in Sanhe Town, he was very careful. He did not rush to attack, but waited for reinforcements from Hubei.

At this time, Li Hongzhang had gathered more than 3,000 Huai Army to support Li Xubin.

And Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng's army did not easily break through Yangzhou City and Jiangbei Camp as in history.

Because there was a powerful force in Yangzhou City, Ronglu's Tianjin New Army.

……………………………………………………

In the court.

The emperor looked at the impeachment memorials of Qingrui one after another, and was furious.

He threw these impeachment memorials to the ground.

He was in a good mood because of the frequent good news from the front line.

First, Wang Youling, the governor of Jiangsu, recovered Huai'an and resumed the grain transport.

Ronglu's Tianjin New Army won victory after victory.

The 3,000 new troops defeated the 6,000 Nian Army and the 5,000 rebels in three days. They were really good at fighting.

In addition, the Hunan Army in Anhui also fought well.

After Li Xubin's 10,000 troops and Li Hongzhang's 3,000 troops joined forces, they were attacking the Sanhe Town defense line in an orderly manner.

As a result, such a huge mess happened in Fujian.

And it was the emperor's biggest headache, because it was related to the foreigners.

Not long ago, one of the excuses for the foreigners to attack Guangzhou was that the French missionary Ma Lai was beaten to death.

Now it's so big that the Taixia Daoshu Yamen was burned down.

Qingrui, this waste, handled it improperly at the beginning, provoked a civil uprising, and now he has fled.

"Incompetent, shameful!"

"Draft an edict to dismiss the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang from all his duties and escort him to Beijing!"

With just one sentence, a frontier official stepped down.

Su Yi didn't think so before, but she should have felt it very deeply.

This is the pinnacle of feudal centralization, the end point of a bureaucrat's life's struggle, and the emperor's slightest word can directly hit the dust.

Then, the emperor said: "My dear ministers, now there is a vacancy in the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang. Who should I send to fill it?"

The people below were silent.

This is a good job, but no one dares to take it now.

Because it is also a powder keg, and you may die if you go up there.

Things involving foreigners will definitely not end well. If you are weak, the civil unrest will intensify over there, your colleagues will impeach you, and your reputation will be ruined.

If you are tough on foreigners, the foreign gunboats will soon arrive at your door, and you will still be in trouble.

Therefore, no one dares to fill this lucrative position.

The emperor frowned and said, "Of all the ministers, isn't there anyone who is willing to share the worries of the imperial court?"

"You rush when you encounter a problem, and you hide when you are in danger?"

"Is this how you are loyal to me and to the country?"

The whole place was silent. It didn't matter if he was scolded now. When he really became the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, he might even lose his life.

No one can solve this kind of trouble.

At this time, Tian Yugong, the Qing of Dali Temple, came forward and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go."

Suddenly, the whole place was silent.

Everyone looked towards Tian Yugong.

Are you so fierce?

We know you are very sad, because because of being implicated by Su Yi, you may not be able to keep your position as Minister of Dali Temple.

But there is no need to be so hungry and picky about food.

If you resign now, you will lose your official position at most. In a year and a half, the emperor will remember your kindness and he may be able to revive you.

But when you become the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, you are in trouble.

The emperor was slightly shocked and said: "Tian Yugong, are you sure?"

Tian Yugong said: "I am willing to go."

In his heart, the emperor didn't want Tian Yugong to go, but now no one in the entire court was willing to accept this threat.

The emperor said: "Then when you go to Fujian, how do you plan to quell this matter?"

Tian Yugong said: "To appease the troubled people, to appease the foreigners, to act vaguely, to turn big things into small things, and to turn small things into small things."

To be honest, this is not Tian Yugong's idea.

This huge trouble is often difficult to blur.

But this answer was most in line with the emperor's expectations.

The emperor thought this would work.

This is how Guiliang was asked to negotiate with foreigners in Tianjin. These treaties can be signed first and then discussed.

The foreign troops should be fooled away first. Whether these treaties should be abided by or not is another matter.

But in fact, this is not possible.

Fortunately, Su Yi had already made solid arrangements for Tian Yugong.

This allowed him to make a great contribution as a feudal official by properly resolving conflicts between foreign religions for the first time.

After pondering for a while, the emperor said: "Draft a decree to appoint Tian Yugong as governor of Fujian and governor of Fujian and Zhejiang. He will leave Beijing immediately to deal with the chaos in Fujian."

Tian Yugong kowtowed and said, "My lord, I accept the order and thank you for your kindness."

Then, Prince Zheng Duanhua came out and said: "Your Majesty, Shi Dakai's army is besieging Suzhou at this time. Once Suzhou is captured, Shanghai and Zhejiang will be in danger."

The emperor frowned, because Su Yi would be mentioned in the Suzhou battlefield.

He doesn't want to hear or mention this name now.

Duan Hua said: "Yan Duanshu is an upright person, but he is not good at military affairs. I'm afraid he is not suitable to be the governor of Zhejiang. Because in the future, Zhejiang may also encounter a rebellion."

The emperor also felt that it was reasonable. This person, Yan Duanshu, was a pure scholar. He had indeed never fought in a war and could not cope with the upcoming war.

"Then who would be more appropriate to be the governor of Zhejiang?" the emperor asked.

Huashana, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, said: "My slave recommended Wang Youling as the chief envoy of Jiangsu Province. This man knows the military. Not long ago, he recaptured Huai'an with 7,000 temporarily recruited troops, defeated more than 10,000 Nian bandits, restored water transportation, and made great achievements. , the imperial court is about to give you a reward."

Du Han said: "I also think it's appropriate."

In Du Han's view, Wang Youling was a member of He Guiqing's party, so he was also Su Yi's political opponent, and he was most suitable to be the governor of Zhejiang.

According to what he and the emperor thought, the people around Su Yi should be surrounded by political enemies as much as possible.

Duan Hua said: "I second the proposal."

In everyone's opinion, Wang Youling couldn't be more suitable to be the governor of Zhejiang.

The emperor said: "We have drawn up a decree to confer Wang Youling as governor of Zhejiang, with the title of right minister of the Ministry of War."

That’s it!

Then, Duan Hua said: "The former governor of Zhejiang held a banquet to read the book, and he happened to succeed Tian Yugong as the Minister of Dali Temple."

Sushun said: "I also recommend him to serve as a banquet scholar. This person is serious and upright, and he is suitable for the minister of Dali Temple."

After Yan Duanshu heard what Su Yi said, he really didn't waste a long time. He immediately sent his family to Beijing and bribed him with a total of 260,000 taels of silver.

Even Concubine Yi’s family has a copy.

He was several steps ahead of others and sought the position of Minister of Dali Temple.

The emperor said: "I will consider this matter again."

Although he said this, Sushun knew the emperor and he said this deliberately.

It's too much to ban three senior officials at once.

Moreover, as soon as the military minister recommended it, the emperor agreed, which seemed too obedient.

So, he wants to take it.

In fact, Yan Duanshu's position as the Minister of Dali Temple is considered stable.

At this point, Su Yi's plan was mostly successful.

It's really not easy.

A Xiamen religious incident was used to detonate the position of three ministers.

He also got two feudal officials for himself.

This layout, taking advantage of the situation, is truly a stroke of genius.

But to a certain extent, it is also carried out according to the historical context.

It's just that Yan Duanshu and Wang Youling obtained the title of Minister of Dali Temple and Governor of Zhejiang earlier than in history.

…………………………………………

Sanxitang!

Wang Chenggui rushed in and said: "Your Majesty, the secret report of honor and wealth is coming."

"Bring it here, bring it here!" The emperor was full of expectation.

Now Ronglu has placed many of the emperor's ideals on him, he is young, capable and loyal.

Become a new favorite.

Ronglu's secret music is written very concisely, with few lyrical words.

A total of three things are described.

First, he was ordered to lead his army to Jiujiang, but was stopped by Su Yi's fleet and was bombarded. He Ronglu did not fight back and immediately retreated. The Tianjin New Army was disappointed with Su Yi and expressed indignation.

The second thing was that he discovered that most of Su Yi's patrol fleet were foreigners and they were Western warships.

The third thing is that after rebellious Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng captured Luzhou, they had already led the army back to attack the Jiangbei camp. Ronglu led the Tianjin new army to help Tuominga guard Yangzhou.

After reading it, the emperor's face twitched slightly.

The two pieces of information here deeply stimulated him.

How dare Su Yi's Yangtze River fleet bombard the imperial fleet? !

audacious in the extreme.

In addition, Su Yi's Yangtze River Fleet turned out to be foreigners.

Does this prove that Su Yi is colluding with foreigners?

The emperor said coldly: "Su Yi offered a series of conditions to humiliate the imperial court, and is finally willing to send troops to save Suzhou. Has the war started? How is the fight going?"

Du Han suddenly sighed and said, "Your Majesty, we are still anxious. We were shocked by the situation at that time. In fact, we may not even need to ask Su Yi for help."

Duan Hua said: "Who says it's not the case? Wang Youling over at Huai'an was defeated. Over at Anhui, there was no way that the three armies of Shengbao, Li Xubin and Li Hongzhang could recover them all. The most important thing is the Ronglu New Army, which can fight like this , winning streak."

Zaiyuan said: "There is no war in Suzhou now, so it is too late to let Ronglu's new army rescue Suzhou. In that case, we can avoid looking at Su Yi's face and humiliating the court. He has made himself miserable. He seems like a great savior, but we can still win without him.”

Du Han said: "Your Majesty, the coach Tan Tingxiang was too incompetent in the last battle with the foreigners in Dagukou, otherwise the battle might not have been winnable."

These words touched upon the emperor's sore point. Afterwards, a review found that Tan Tingxiang was responsible for 70% of the defeat in the Battle of Dagukou.

How well the Ronglu New Army fought.

It was Tan Tingxiang, that loser. As soon as the foreigners landed, he, the coach, ran away with the Chinese army, triggering a collapse.

Du Han said: "Your Majesty, if there is another battle at Dagukou, if we go all out, we may not be unable to win!"

The emperor was quite moved, but he had better not fight if he could. He was still afraid of foreigners.

Du Han's eyes flashed and said: "But Your Majesty, this game is not a loss. Now the rebel army is surrounding Suzhou City with 70,000 to 80,000 people. Su Yi and Xu Youren add up to more than 30,000 people. After rebelling against Shi Dakai and breaking through the Jiangnan camp, He has always been unstoppable and can really fight.”

"If Su Yi loses this battle, his political reputation will naturally be ruined. At that time, the imperial court will only need one eunuch and two guards to capture him and bring him to the capital."

"If Su Yi wins this battle, not much of his nearly 10,000 troops will be left, and their muscles and bones will be broken."

"If he doesn't have the army in his hands, we will completely quell the rebellion in Anhui and Jiangsu, and trap the rebels in Nanjing again."

"By that time, we will be 100% sure if we attack Su Yi again. There won't be any surprises like this."

"Just for him to hire a foreign fleet and bombard the imperial fleet is a serious crime. We can capture him."

The emperor narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Let's wait until the battle of Suzhou is over."

"If he loses this battle and he still has the face to face the world, I will send people to capture him directly."

What if you win?

That's also a matter of settling accounts later in life.

The Qing Dynasty could not tolerate such rebellious ministers.

………………………………

Yangzhou battlefield!

The proud Chen Yucheng led tens of thousands of troops and surrounded Yangzhou on three sides.

His campaign against Anhui was overwhelming, and in less than a month, he swept through half of the province.

Now, with the momentum of great victory, he turned back and attacked the Jiangbei camp.

There are two reasons why they hurriedly brought the army back from Anhui to attack the Jiangbei camp.

First, Shi Dakai won too hard and the limelight was too strong. Chen Yucheng and Li Xiucheng had to find a way to overpower Shi Dakai.

Second, these two people must surpass Lin Qirong and Zeng Tianyang.

Young people are so energetic.

After the conquest of Luzhou and Yangzhou, there was no one in Heaven who had more merit than these two young men.

Old people like Lin Qirong and Zeng Tianyang can lean aside.

However, I also heard that Li Xubin and Li Hongzhang were joining forces to attack Sanhe Town, and the leader of Qingyao in the north, Shengbao, also led his army south, and the three parties joined forces to attack Luzhou City.

Therefore, Li Xiucheng led an army of 50,000 to fight back to Anhui.

Chen Yucheng led an army of 50,000 to attack the Jiangbei camp.

Although there are only 50,000, it is still overwhelming.

Within a few hours, Liuhe City was captured.

The next day, they attacked Xincheng again.

In another half day, the Tucheng, which was dozens of miles long, was breached, and more than a dozen Qing military camps were breached.

Now, Yangzhou City is surrounded.

At this time, there were about 20,000 Qing troops in the city.

Ronglu's new army has nearly 2,700 people, and Toming'a's 17,000 people.

Jiangbei Camp coach Tuo Ming'a, in Chen Yucheng's view, is like a withered bone in a grave.

And Ronglu? Never heard of it.

Chen Yucheng narrowed his eyes and glanced at Yangzhou City.

He gave the order directly and shouted: "Attack the city!"

"Destroy Yangzhou!"

Suddenly, the Yangzhou War broke out!

…………………………………………

Suzhou battlefield!

Shi Da opened an army of more than 70,000 men and surrounded three palaces.

In the city, Xu Youren had less than 20,000 troops, part of which was from the Jiangnan camp.

Su Yi led an army of 10,000 to build a camp in the north of Suzhou.

At that time, when Shi Dakai's army was still attacking Wuxi, Su Yi's army was already here.

It took nearly a month to build a strong camp.

An earthen wall with a circumference of more than four miles.

The defense line was crisscrossed with ravines, and barbed wire was even used on the battlefield for the first time.

Not actual barbed wire, of course.

In this era, the value of wire was too high, and there was no barbed wire.

These barbed wire fences are made of very strong rattan and cannot be burned for a while, with various iron thorns wrapped around them.

This achieves an effect similar to barbed wire.

On the battlefield of World War I, what was the army’s biggest nightmare?

That barbed wire fence must count as one.

Before the invention of the tank, infantry had almost no solution when faced with barbed wire.

When Su Yi's steel materials are built and mass-produced, he will be able to use the real infantry nightmare barbed wire array.

At this time, Su Yi's army and Xu Youren's Suzhou City defenders formed a horned force.

And Shi Dakai, with an army of 70,000 to 80,000 men, was caught in the middle.

Su Yi exhaled an anxious breath. Even though he didn't smoke, he couldn't help but smoke to refresh himself.

Take out your pocket watch and check the time.

Half past five in the morning.

It was dawning.

The battle is still about half an hour away.

In the previous few battles, Su Yi was suspected of being opportunistic and had never really experienced a fierce battle.

But this time, it was a real fierce battle.

If you lose, everything is over!

The secret agreement between seven provinces was ruined.

Su Yi's political reputation was almost bankrupt.

At this moment, Lin Li rushed over: "Commander, Lord Shen Baozhen is here."

Su Yi was stunned, Mr. Youdan?

Come at this time? Something must have happened. What's the big deal?

He has been presiding over the overall situation in Jiujiang. When he came to the battlefield at this time, he must have urgent matters.

Shen Baozhen quickly entered the camp and said, "Sir, two things."

"The first thing is that the Ronglu New Army once brought a fleet to forcefully invade Jiujiang, but was stopped by our patrol fleet. He acted very tough. Our patrol fleet opened fire, and he immediately retreated."

Su Yi said: "It's okay, he wants to let the Tianjin New Army cut with me, and use me to bombard the Tianjin New Army."

Sure enough, the two people immediately made the most correct judgment.

Shen Baozhen said: "Rong Lu saw it. Our patrol fleet is all foreigners, and they are all British warships."

Su Yi frowned slightly and said: "Sooner or later, I will know. I have many charges in the court, so I don't care about this one."

Shen Baozhen said: "The second thing is that Earl Elgin, the supreme commander of the British Empire in the Far East, officially sent a note to us in Jiujiang, saying that we illegally hired the British fleet and asked us to immediately terminate the contract and return the fleet. Otherwise, he will lead the British Empire Navy, come to Jiujiang to disarm our patrol fleet."

grass!

Sure enough, something big happened.

No wonder Shen Baozhen ran over overnight.

Shen Baozhen was extremely smart, but faced with this situation, he still had no solution and needed Su Yi to make up his mind.

Elgin regarded Su Yi as a political enemy and was bent on destroying the Jiujiang Economic Experimental Zone.

Once the British navy really enters the Yangtze River, Su Yi's patrol fleet will be unable to resist it.

The situation will be chaotic next. Su Yi must take control of the Yangtze River waterway. This fleet is indispensable.

Even transporting goods and raw materials in the future will require escort by this fleet.

Without control of the Yangtze River waterway, Su Yi could not do anything.

Moreover, once Count Elgin disarms and disarms this fleet, he will definitely take further measures to further dismantle the Jiujiang Economic Experimental Zone.

Therefore, Su Yi must not make any concessions regarding this mercenary fleet.

Time passes minute by minute.

It's getting brighter and brighter.

"Commander, the Taiping Army has finished their meal!"

"Probably, a war is about to begin."

The first fierce battle of Su Yi's army here, the battle of destiny, is about to begin.

On the other side, there is a political crisis that requires Su Yi to provide an immediate solution.

Su Yi's eyes were red. He didn't finish one cigarette, so he lit another one and took a deep breath.

Close your eyes, think quickly for about three minutes.

Then, there is a plan.

Opening his eyes, Su Yi said: "Two things."

Shen Baozhen said: "Yes."

Su Yi said: "The first thing is to order the Fujian side to make the Xiamen missionary case a big fuss. If the fuss becomes even bigger, a few more foreign missionaries can be killed to divert the conflict. In this way, Elgin's attention will be diverted. By moving to Fujian, we also have a buffer.”

"The second thing is to ask one of Basharli or Sir Pauling to return to London as quickly as possible and invite Prince Albert to send a special envoy to China. The title must be higher than that of Count Elgin, Marquis or even Duke. We invite The royal envoy visited Jiujiang to witness the signing of the secret agreement by the officials from the seven provinces, and also invited the royal envoy from the British Empire to sign the agreement together, as both a witness and a participant. "

"Expand this secret agreement, make it more authoritative, and bring the British side in."

"In this way, Prince Albert can see our strong political momentum and see us standing up to the imperial court, which can give him huge support and allow him to continue to promote our line of peaceful cooperation and continue to promote the 1860 World's Fair."

"Secondly, this royal envoy can suppress Earl Elgin and allow us to use this British mercenary fleet reasonably and legally."

"Third, I can further enhance my political status, especially in front of the frontier officials of the seven provinces. Let this secret agreement between the seven provinces make this Southern Economic Cooperation more international!"

For a moment, Shen Baozhen almost fell into a trance.

I was shocked beyond words.

He was already extremely smart, but he was at a loss when faced with Count Elgin's military threat.

But Su Yi only used a few minutes to come up with a perfect solution.

Not only can this political crisis be solved, but it can also be a blessing in disguise, killing three birds with one stone.

In an instant, Shen Baozhen couldn't help but have a thought.

Will such a person just be the ruling prime minister of the imperial court in the future?

Shen Baozhen suppressed the extremely exciting emotions and quickly repeated Su Yi's words.

After finishing the retelling, Shen Baozhen said: "Then I'll go do the work right away!"

And right here, tens of thousands of Taiping soldiers not far away let out bursts of cheers.

The sound was loud.

Apparently, Wing King Shi Dakai was making his final remarks before the war.

The Taiping Army is very powerful in this regard. After all, it is also an army blessed by faith.

Su Yi said: "Send someone to escort Mr. Youdan away from the battlefield and make sure he leaves safely."

"Yes!" A woman's voice came from the side.

Hong Renli, her whole body was covered in armor.

This matter was too important, so even though she and Shen Baozhen didn't want to deal with it, they still escorted it here personally because this was a battlefield.

Hong Renli's eyes showed tenderness and he wanted to rush over and kiss her for at least a while.

Su Yi shook her head.

Hong Renli led an elite team to escort Shen Baozhen away.

And this time!

On the high platform outside, Shi Dakai has completed mobilization.

Impassioned.

Tens of thousands of Taiping troops were excited.

"Start the war!"

"Destroy Suzhou!"

"Kill Qing Yao Su Ye!"

"Destroy Su Yi's entire army!"

Following the order, the war drums shook the sky.

The Taiping Army, numbering 70,000 to 80,000, surged like a tidal wave.

Countless artillery bombarded them wildly.

This crucial decisive battle that determines Su Yi's fate and the secret agreement between the seven provinces officially breaks out.

……………………

Note: This battle can only be completed in half a chapter at most, and it doesn’t even need to be written.

If you have a monthly pass, can you give it to me? Thank you all. Then I go to bed, wish me a good sleep.
