To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Tien Wang's orders were now so peremptory that Chung Wang was obHged to go up to Nankin, leaving Mow Wang or Tan-shas-kwang, a man he had great confidence in, as chief at Souchow. He arrived in August at Nankin, having passed through Liyang. He found things in a bad way, for, as he naively remarks with respect to the series of reverses they had met with, "as the bamboo when once split splits easily all the way down," so had there by the loss of Nganking been losses of many other places. Chu...ng Wang was engaged from September to October trying to take the Imperialist works which were surrounding Yu-hua-ta, but failed in doing so. This enraged the Tien Wang, who deprived him of his nobility, etc., and ordered him to march into Angwhui to join with the remnant of Ying Wang's troops. He accordingly started in November 1862 for Hoochow, for the purpose of collecting these remnants together, and thus be able to confront the Imperialists. It is now necessary to narrate the events which took place at Shanghai and Ningpo from June to December 1862.
