The imperial army's infantry and cavalry were dressed in bright armor and were numerous, marching on several parallel roads from north to south. The scene was extremely spectacular. The sound of horses' hooves, footsteps, and the "jiggle" of vehicles was very loud, and the noise seemed to cover the entire land.
The main force of the government troops transferred from the capital had a total strength of 120,000! After the government troops were deployed in the capital, Zhenjiang Prefecture, and Taiping Prefecture (which had surrendered), they still had more than 100,000 people, which was the last main force.

Suddenly, a flame flashed in the white mist!A moment later, a huge roar was heard, and at the same time, an iron ball had smashed into the dense formation of the government troops! In the center of the front and back battle formations, as if swept by a strong wind, the whistling shells bounced through the crowd.No one saw how the shell bounced, and by the time the people around came to their senses, the dust raised by the shell had already risen violently, and many people had already fallen to the ground. A sergeant's helmet exploded, blood splattered, and he fell to the side.After a while, the frightened crowd began to riot. However, the overall situation of the government army was not affected too much, and they continued to advance in formation!The rebels fired only one shot first, apparently to determine the location of the bombardment.There were tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry in the large formation, but no generals responded

There seemed to be no empty space between the two armies. It was all filled with cavalry, and countless troops and horses rushed together.In the infantry formation of the King of Han's army, the front row of infantrymen held a shield in one hand and a spear in the other, and walked in formation with their brothers on the left and right. The King of Han is our king! We will win... The shouts from everywhere almost never stopped, and the soldiers seemed very enthusiastic. However, not all the soldiers walking in front were enthusiastic, and some of them were still very afraid.Although most of the Han army's vanguard soldiers had experienced more than one brutal b
Game of the Throne Chapter 584: The Truth
The Battle of Zhili actually ended on the 20th day of the first lunar month of the seventh year of Yongle (the second year of Hongxi). It only took one morning for the Han army to defeat the main force of the official army from the front, but it was even more time-consuming to pursue the army northward and accept the defeat.At noon on the 21st of the first lunar month, Zhu Gaoxu led the front army with tens of thousands of cavalry and arrived outside the Fengtai Gate of the capital. The Chinese army divided its troops and went to various city gates of the capital. Except for the south city gate, only two hundred households teams were mobilized at each other gate; the purpose was to control the entry and exit of people in the outer city of the capital.The capital has long been under martial law and the city gates are closed. However, Xu Huizu lost more than 100,000 troops in the north of Taiping Prefecture, leaving the capital with few defenders at this time. In

"The most important thing for you now is to ascend the throne as soon as possible!"It is not strange for anyone to say this sentence, but it was precisely the current Ming Emperor Gao Chi who said it first. There was an indescribable weirdness at once!Zhu Gaoxu never dreamed that Gao Chi would sit here and think for a while, and the first sentence he said would be this.He looked at Gao Chi carefully with a curious look. After a short while, he understood that his elder brother must have something to ask for!No wonder Gao Chi remained relatively calm after the palace was breached. That was because there was still something unfinished in his mind, but he still had some hope; Gao Chi wanted to do his best to complete this matter.Therefore, Gao Chi's expression was very pale, but his eyes were very forbearing; he temporarily controlled all the emotions that were about to get out of control.
