We're at war with foreigners now. The Boxers and the troops in Tianjin won a battle, and the emperor has already praised them. We've got patriots like that all over the country. If the governors can round these guys up and get 'em fighting, it'll be a big help. Get a plan to me, pronto! Coastal and river provinces, get on it! Get this order out ASAP.
Essentially, the Emperor wants us to know that the war with foreign countries has broken out. The Boxers and the official army in Tianjin have cooperated and achieved victory, and the emperor has praised them. The governors need to organize these patriots to fight off the foreigners – it'll make us stronger. Figure it out and report back fast. Coastal and river provinces need to prioritize this. That's the Emperor's word.
