After a narrow victory in the north, Shen Zhao, son of a disgraced minister, received an imperial summons to the capital to be rewarded.
The decree was worded generously: he could bring three hundred personal guards, while the rest of his troops were to remain in camp.
But Shen Zhao knew this was no reward. The court was reaching out to grasp the hilt of the Northern Army’s blade.
Pei Guanxue, the female military inspector, was ordered to verify the rolls. The powerful chancellor awaited his submission in the capital, the Empress Dowager wanted to test his loyalty, and his former comrades urged him not to go.
Shen Zhao was determined to go anyway.
And he would take along three hundred of the hardest to control, most fearless, and most likely to be branded as evidence of his crimes.
Going to the capital was a death trap; turning back would be treason.
Then he would go to the capital and turn the trap into a way out.
The beginning was rock bottom, and I was confused about the crime. A female official came, and I thought there would be an emotional drama. She brought 300 people to Beijing to face the powerful. It was full of tension, full of details, and immersive. Worth recommending!
A high-energy start! Shen Zhao, the son of the guilty minister, was trapped in a deadly situation. He refused to retreat or avoid, but wanted to lead three hundred dead men to the capital to break the situation with chaos and overcome power with strength. It's full of pleasure, full of tension, and makes people's blood boil!
The overall narrative rhythm is well controlled, the characters are three-dimensional, the plot turns are natural and not abrupt, and the foreshadowing is cleverly laid out and recycled smoothly in the later period. When reading, I am completely immersed in it, without the feeling of being in a drama.
A very high-energy book, with a high-energy start, bringing 300 warriors to Beijing to fight, the brave warriors are commendable 👍👍
The war in the north has not stopped, and the storm is coming to Beijing. He led three hundred villains to a certain death situation, trying to find a way out in the whirlpool of power.
