All Chapters of Game of the Throne: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

The government troops came from the south, and the largest number of people gathered outside the Lizheng Gate, the south gate of Peking. There were roars of artillery fire and billowing smoke outside the city, but the prince was still personally in charge at the Lizheng Gate!Zhu Gaoxu, Yao Guangxiao and others also stood beside the prince, and the people in the tower couldn't help coughing from time to time. The thick smoke from the burning gunpowder and fierce oil was very choking.The smell of burning kerosene was like a mixture of gasoline and asphalt. Zhu Gaoxu felt as if he was in a shabby thirty-year-old truck.Although the people on the tower were high up, their vision was obstructed by the thick smoke and they could not see the outside clearly. From time to time, soldiers would walk into the tower and kneel on one knee to report the situation. When the artillery fire was dense, even the voices of people were often unclear. The atmosphere around was

The east was already turning white, and it was early morning. A cold mist enveloped the city of Peking. The fighting during the day had temporarily subsided, leaving only the faint groans of pain in the darkness. The smell of gunpowder and blood in the air remained in the mist after a night.Suddenly, a loud shout came from the army camp, "The commander is missing!"The soldiers were horrified and searched everywhere in the camp. Soon after, the generals of each camp also arrived at the central army one after another. How could they find the commander Li Jinglong?The generals looked at each other in bewilderment, all in a daze in the big tent, not knowing what to do for a moment. At this time, a general said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid the commander-in-chief has already fled overnight..."There was an uproar in the tent, and soon several generals hurriedly lifted the oilcloth and left without saying a word. Everyone came to their senses and hurried t

"Clang..." Every time Zhu Gaoxu took a step, he could hear the sound of his boots crushing the snow.The road surface cannot be seen in the snow. Only when you step on it carefully and feel the solid road surface will you feel at ease.He lowered his head to look at the road and said nothing more. The past events came back to his mind one after another, and many things he had seen and hadn't seen slowly connected into one piece like knitting a sweater.Junying grass is the modern lily of the valley, and the whole plant is poisonous. It is very common in modern times, but it was considered a rare thing in ancient times. Zhu Gaoxu only dabbled in it because of his hobby.When Zhu Gaoxu was in Nanjing, he saw the little white flower blooming in the corner for the first time and knew what it was; he didn't think of its use at the time. That's why he talked about it in front of Du Qianrui and teased the servants who were spreading rumors in the corner.

Tonight, the city of Beiping is more prosperous than ever. On his way back home, Zhu Gaoxu rode through the bustling city, but he was no longer in a festive mood.At this moment, Zhu Gaoxu suddenly asked Wang Gui, who was leading the horse in front, "Have you had the reunion dinner?"Wang Gui turned his head and looked at the road in front of him. As he walked, he said, "I have no family and no children. How long will it last? But Cao Fu bought wine and meat the day before yesterday and will take the prince back to rest soon. I will wait for you." Have a good meal too!”Zhu Gaoxu said, "I went to my father's palace to have a good meal and drink, but I forgot that you were waiting outside. After a while, I also put the cost of tonight's wine and meat into the warehouse. It's my invitation to you."Wang Guidao said, "Your Majesty still remembers us, which is a great kindness. Only by serving your Majesty loyally can I repay Your Majesty's kindness."

Hundreds of thousands of government troops never stopped for a single day, and multiple groups of troops advanced northward one after another. The main force had just passed Hejian Prefecture and was spreading towards Xiong County.General Ping An led the elite cavalry and was located in the northernmost part. As the vanguard, he was close to the Baigou River.That day, the sturdy Ping An rode a big brown horse and led only a few riders to the river to observe the terrain. After a while, he saw a small group of horses running towards this side.That small group of cavalry came from the south, so it was unlikely that they were enemy soldiers. Ping An watched for a while and saw that they were indeed government troops; and they were people he knew. Who else could the man in front be but Qu Neng?Qu Neng immediately clasped his fists and said, "General Ping!""General Qu!" Ping An also returned the salute.Qu Neng didn't say much. He rode his
