Chapter 467 South Wind
On the morning of July 29th, the first year of Hongxi, the sky was clear and the ground was moist.
The surface of the Liujiang River east of Liuzhou City was covered with a layer of mist. The milky white mist drifted slowly and gracefully in the breeze, which was gentle in its own way.
However, the soldiers wearing wide-brimmed iron hats marching in formation on the floating bridges on the river were full of masculine energy. The noisy voices were often accompanied by foul language and curses, and the vulgar language had completely destroyed the atmosphere of the beautiful scenery.
Geng Hao rode silently on the horse, standing beside his father-in-law Wu Gao.
At this time, a donkey cart loaded with cannons and wooden barrels was unable to move forward beside the floating bridge. The driver whipped the donkey, but the donkey was very stubborn and did not move. Wu Gao got off the horse, walked over to push the donkey cart, and turned back to say to his g

On the evening of August 2, the main force of Zhu Gaoxu's army had reached the mountainous area east of Rong County. Three full days had passed since they passed through Rong County.No one knows which government office governs this place, maybe Guilin Prefecture. People say that Guilin's landscape is the best in the world, but there is obviously no such beauty in the mountains here. Looking around, there are only lush forests and different shades of green on all sides...Half a month ago, the main forces of the King of Han's army left Libo County on the morning of July 18th.They walked along the official road for about eight and a half days, covering more than 300 miles, and arrived at the Qingyuan Prefecture area on the afternoon of July 25th. At that time, they were still more than 100 miles away from Yishan County of Qingyuan Prefecture, so the army stopped advancing towards Qingyuan Prefecture.Then the central army, the rear army, the left and r

In the vast fields between the rivers, only white water and rice stalks remained. Some of the rice stalks had just sprouted new buds, and from a distance they looked green, like a spring scene.On the sixth day of August, the vanguard infantry and cavalry of Wang Bin's troops had crossed the Luoqing River near Luorong County (northeast of Luorong Town, Luzhai County); on the morning of the seventh day, the vanguard army finally caught up with the main force of Wu Gao's army coming from the northwest at a place called Shazhai on the north bank of Liuhe (Shiliuhe River).This place is between Liuzhou Prefecture and Pingle Prefecture.Wang Bin led a team of cavalrymen, detoured from the south of a lake planted with lotus roots, passed through a forest, and was the first to rush out of the forest. The cavalrymen suddenly let out a surprised sigh.To the east of the woods are vast paddy fields. The sprouts of the rice stalks appear to be a large expanse of
Game of the Throne Chapter 470: Battle of Luorong (2)
Wang Bin's cavalry passed in front of the enemy's formation. In the smoke and dust, the front infantry formations of the two armies were only a few dozen steps apart.There was a loud roar of cannons on the battlefield. The government troops stood still, and the bowl-shaped guns set up in the back, like spittoons, fired loudly; cast iron shells and arrows were thrown out together. In front of the Han army were archers, who also began to attack from dozens of steps away.The huge noise on the west bank of the stream shook the earth, and between the firing of cannons and arrows, countless screams and shouts filled the air. The ground was even more smoky, as if it was shrouded in haze and a storm was about to come.The woods and houses in the distance were also shrouded in smoke, becoming vague.The two armies were only 50 to 60 steps away from each other. The official army could only shoot with their bowl-mouthed guns behind the formation, otherwise the

To the northwest of the nameless river, there are large tracts of rice fields; an official road extends northward from the dry land in the middle, then bends and turns west along the edge of the forest.The forest was composed of patches of pine, cypress and bamboo forests, with some vegetable fields and houses in between; continuing northward, there was a body of water and a lake.At this moment, the forest was filled with white smoke, and the fog was shrouded. Inside, there was a lot of noise, and the sound of strings, guns, and shouts mixed together, making it very noisy.The main cavalry of the government army came around from the southwest, with a large number of people and horses. There was no end to the horse team, and the sound of horse hooves "rumble rumble..." resounded through the world, as if it was a continuous thunder in the sky!Obviously, Wang Bin's cavalry charge failed to stop the large cavalry of the government troops. The government

On the evening of August 7, Zhu Gaoxu learned the news that Wang Bin was going to attack Wu Gao's troops in the military camp south of Guilin City.Zhu Gaoxu didn't sleep well that night.The defeat of the vanguard army led by Wang Bin was inevitable, and Zhu Gaoxu had no expectation of victory or defeat; while he tried his best to face reality, he still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that Wang Bin's troops could escape death and avoid the fate of being wiped out!Wu Gao had an army of 100,000 men under his command, which would not have given Wang Bin any chance of winning; if Wu Gao was really so incompetent, Zhu Di would not have had to use the strategy of alienation against Wu Gao during the Jingnan Campaign, because a stupid and incompetent general would actually be beneficial to the enemy.Such a wait was quite tormenting. Zhu Gaoxu seemed to be waiting for the verdict, his heart hanging in the air, unable to land; he really couldn't let go of the

Pinglefu City is surrounded by water on several sides and mountains on one side. Only the hilly terrain in the northeast is relatively open.Like many cities built at the confluence of rivers, Pingle City is located at the confluence of the Li River and the Lechuan River (Chajiang River), which is convenient for water transportation. The Lechuan River flows around the city from the north and flows into the Li River in the east; the Li River flows around the city from the south. To the southeast of the city, there is a mountain range that runs from east to west, and the ridge shields the southeast corner of Pingle City.On the afternoon of the tenth day of the eighth month, the main force of the Han army arrived at the north of Pingle Prefecture and near a ferry on the west bank of the Lechuan River. There were several islands in the middle of the river, which were convenient for building a floating bridge.But the army could not cross the river immediately a
Game of the Throne Chapter 474: Meeting on a Narrow Road
Morale is very abstract. It is difficult for a single person to control it, but it can be detected and guided...After leaving the vanguard camp, Zhu Gaoxu rode his horse on the nearby hillsides and ran for ten miles. When he returned to the central army camp, it was completely dark. Various factors flashed and brewed in his mind again and again.Given the distance at which the enemy had boldly set up camp, Zhu Gaoxu felt that Wu Gao intended to launch a decisive battle tomorrow.This will be a duel similar to an encounter. Although both sides expected to meet in Pingle Mansion, the battle is about to break out as soon as they come into contact!At this moment, Miao Jin walked into the room where Zhu Gaoxu lived. She found a quilt somewhere in the village and walked in to put it on Zhu Gaoxu's shabby wooden bed.Zhu Gaoxu cast a glance over, and Miao Jin asked, "King Han still has trouble sleeping recently?""I have a lot to think about."

Game of the Throne Chapter 475: The Sound of Cannons in the Mountains
The main infantry force of the official army marched continuously for half an hour, covering eight or nine miles. By the time they caught up with the main force of the Han army and could see the enemy's men and horses with the naked eye, the sun had already reached the third pole position.The even and rhythmic drums kept beating, and the military music mixed in, unexpectedly gave people a faint sense of joy. Perhaps because the battlefield was often bloody and horrible, the music in the Ming Dynasty army rarely used heavy and grand music.Wu Gao, with his gray hair, had many wrinkles on his face, but his arms were full of tender flesh, as shown by his wrist armor. He rode up a hill and looked at the enemy's deployment in the distance.Wu Gao had received reports before and had a general idea of the situation. Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, he quickly understood the situation.Usually when Wu Gao fought a big battle, he liked to use the str
