However, the stalemate in the palace did not last long, because after the first and second regiments completely captured the north and south gates, only a small number of troops were left to guard the city gates, and then they immediately commanded other troops to rush to the palace.

At this time, the two regimental headquarters also knew the situation in the palace, so they did not rush into the palace to participate in the battle, but first distributed troops and captured the four gates of the imperial city. Prior to this, in the city gate of the imperial city, only the noon gate was controlled by a battalion, and the remaining three city gates, Donghua Gate, Xihua Gate, and Shenwu Gate were all controlled by the Eight-Nation Alliance, but there were not many troops guarding the city gates, and only dozens of people were stationed at each city gate, and on the rest of the city walls, there were basically no troops stationed.

After the 1st and 2nd regiments arrived at the imperial city, they easily captured the other city gates, and sent some soldiers to garrison the city wall, setting up various rifles, machine guns, and rapid-fire guns, but the muzzles and muzzles were all aimed at the palace. Then the 1st and 2nd regiments concentrated the remaining troops and launched an attack on the Eight-Nation Alliance in the palace from the north and south respectively.

Luo Yue also received an order from the regimental headquarters in the Wenhua Palace, asking them to also participate in the battle and cooperate with the regimental headquarters to attack the Eight-Nation Alliance, and at the same time informed Luo Yue that if the soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance surrendered, they would no longer be killed, and they could accept the surrender of the coalition soldiers and take prisoners.

In fact, the crossing soldiers are all people from modern society, and their concepts and education are quite different from those of this era, and they are generally reluctant to kill enemy soldiers who surrender on the battlefield. Of course, the crossing soldiers also knew the importance of this battle, and in the situation just now, it was indeed impossible to contain prisoners, but now the situation is different, the overall situation of Beijing City will be decided, so the People's Army also has enough spare strength to contain prisoners. And the more prisoners are captured now, the more beneficial it will be for future negotiations with other countries.

So Luo Yue also ordered the whole battalion to attack, cooperate with the troops of the whole regiment, and launch an attack on the Eight-Nation Alliance, and also conveyed to all units that the surrender of the Eight-Nation Alliance Army could be accepted. However, this time Luo Yue did not personally participate in the battle and command the battle, but stayed in the Wenhua Hall to count the losses and results. Because this battle has reached this point, the People's Army has basically decided the overall situation, and it can contain prisoners, so the remaining battles in the palace are actually not difficult, and there is no need for Luo Yue to command them personally.

Because the U.S. troops took the initiative to retreat from the Wenhua Palace, unlike other Eight-Nation Coalition Force Headquarters, there was no battle in the Wenhua Palace, and they did not suffer any other losses except for the doors and windows damaged by artillery fire, the pierced walls, and the cornices. Moreover, the U.S. troops retreated lightly, and did not take much with them except for the belongings of the soldiers, and left a lot of materials in the Wenhua Palace, which were the gold and silver property looted by the American soldiers in China, and all of them were left in the Wenhua Hall and piled up in several rooms.

And the battle just now was fierce, Luo Yue occupied the Wenhua Palace, and did not check it carefully, but Luo Yue also knew that the property looted by the Eight-Nation Alliance had already been booked by the crossing group, so he took advantage of the free time now to see what the US army had robbed. Moreover, the rooms used by the US military to pile up the looted property were all at the back of the Wenhua Palace, so they were not hit by artillery fire and were basically intact.

So Luo Yue led people to smash open the door of a room, only to see that it was full of all kinds of silk fabrics, leather goods, silver, gold, jade ornaments, jewelry, embroidered clothes, porcelain, utensils of various materials, etc., and even a few wooden chairs, tables, some of which were packed with boxes, sacks, and cloth bags, but most of them were scattered, and many of the utensils had been broken, but they were only dazzling.

Although Luo Yue is not an antique player, he also knows that these things are royal treasures except for precious metals such as silver and gold, and they are all royal treasures, and they are all worth hundreds of thousands of dollars when they are taken to the old time and space, even if they reach hundreds of millions, even in this era, these treasures are also worth a lot of money.

And looking at this treasure piled up all over the ground like rags, Luo Yue's heart was also full of emotion, if it weren't for his group of people accidentally traveling to this era, then these treasures would definitely be taken away by foreigners soon after, and since then they have been overseas, or have been collected by private collections, or accepted by museums for exhibition, and after a few years, when China's national strength is restored, Powerful, but it will also cost hundreds or thousands of times to redeem a wounded treasure, of course, some of which will probably never return to China. However, although the traverser has changed the outcome of the Gengzi State Change, Bi Jing's time is too short, the foundation is not strong, and he is not able to change the semi-feudal and semi-colonial state of the whole China, so the traversal group still has a long way to go.

And just when Luo Yue was feeling, at this time a soldier came to report to Luo Yue that Li Zhuangyong, the squad leader of the second platoon and the third squad of the first company, disobeyed the order and killed the soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance who surrendered to the People's Army.

After listening to the report, Luo Yue couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, in fact, Luo Yue still attaches great importance to Li Zhuangyong, and also intends to focus on cultivating him, because Li Zhuangyong's personal quality is good, his training is serious in peacetime, he is very brave in combat, and he can fight, and Li Zhuangyong has some leadership skills, although he has not been in the army for a long time, but he has some appeal in the army, but in terms of ideological improvement, Li Zhuangyong is far behind, every time he studies politics and reports on his thoughts, Li Zhuangyong is perfunctory and prevaricates. As for the military discipline formulated by the People's Army, Li Zhuangyong also made a lot of slight remarks and did not think so.

The biggest difference between the people's army formed by the traversers and the armies of this era is that they attach importance to the ideological education and transformation of the soldiers, so that they are different from the old army, so Li Zhuangyong's thinking obviously does not meet the requirements of the traversers.

However, Luo Yue feels that Li Zhuangyong's quality is good, if he is trained well, he will be a good local officer, but Li Zhuangyong's thinking has not been improved enough, and now Li Zhuangyong is still a squad leader, and he has not been promoted to platoon commander, which has a certain relationship with this. Moreover, in this war against Beijing, Li Zhuangyong behaved very bravely, and Luo Yue also saw it, so he also planned to promote Li Zhuangyong to platoon commander after the war ended, and of course he also had to do more ideological work to help him improve his ideological understanding as soon as possible. It's just that Luo Yue didn't expect that the war against Beijing had not yet ended, and Li Zhuangyong made a big mistake. also made Luo Yue's favor for Li Zhuangyong disappear for the most part.

It turned out that after receiving the order to contain the prisoners of the Eight-Nation Alliance, Li Zhuangyong was unhappy, because from the beginning of the battle, Li Zhuangyong was bent on killing a few more foreigners and avenging the brothers and sisters of the former Boxers, so from the beginning of the war to the present, Li Zhuangyong was extremely brave, regardless of life and death, he took the lead, and Li Zhuangyong calculated that he killed 4 foreigners and stabbed 3 to death with a bayonet, so he killed quite happily.

And now seeing that a large number of foreigners are surrounded in the palace, and a few more foreigners can be killed, he is excited, but he didn't expect that now the army has issued an order to contain the prisoners, which makes Li Zhuangyong complain in his heart.

Li Zhuangyong has been in the People's Army for more than two months, and he also knows a little about the People's Army and the affairs of the crossing group, and knows that the People's Army has captured a large number of foreign soldiers and prisoners in previous battles, but none of them have been killed. Although these captives had to work every day, they did not hesitate to eat two meals a day, and they had meat at every meal, and I heard that they took great care of several foreign officers, letting them live in restaurants, and they were well fed and drunk every day.

In fact, the KPA's policy of taking prisoners is also part of the soldiers' political study, on the one hand, it is to give the soldiers the habitual humanitarian spirit, and on the other hand, it is also to repeatedly explain to the soldiers that keeping these prisoners can not only give free hard labor to the crossing group, but also ask the countries for ransom when they negotiate with other countries in the future, so it is better to keep these prisoners than to kill them.

After listening to these explanations, most of the soldiers were able to understand the prisoner policy of the traverser, but Li Zhuangyong still couldn't let go, in his opinion, it was good to kill all the prisoners, as for any exemption from coolies, asking for ransom fees can be ignored, so he also said some flea words in the army, but he couldn't get a response from other soldiers, and he felt bored, so he had to stuff in his heart.

However, at this time, Li Zhuangyong had no intention of disobeying this order, although he had strict requirements for the military discipline of the People's Army, and he had made a lot of slight remarks, but after all, he had worked in the People's Army for more than two months, and he knew that the strict military discipline of the People's Army was not just talking, it was definitely for real, and Li Zhuangyong still wanted to work in the People's Army, so he really did not dare to blatantly disobey military discipline.

Moreover, only if the enemy army voluntarily surrenders to the KPA, will it take prisoners, and if the enemy army does not surrender but continues to resist, it will naturally not be counted as prisoners. In the battle of attacking Zuo'anmen, the performance of the Japanese soldiers who would rather die than surrender left a very deep impression on Li Zhuangyong, so he thought that the foreigners might not surrender so easily, so he still had the opportunity to kill more foreigners.

However, after the all-out offensive of the People's Army was launched, the development of the battle situation greatly surprised Li Zhuangyong, because at this time the sky had completely brightened, so the soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance in the palace could clearly see that the number of the People's Army had increased greatly, and even the walls of the imperial city were arranged with many soldiers, and rapid-fire guns were also set up. By this time, anyone would have understood that the battle had been lost, and the overseas Chinese army must have taken control of the city of Beijing and surrounded the imperial city.

However, the soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance did not have the courage of the Japanese army not to fear life and death, not to mention that a considerable part of them were colonial troops, and they did not have the determination to fight to the death, so when the People's Army was killed, the soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance Army threw down their rifles one after another and raised their hands to surrender. Of course, this group of soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance Army was relatively lucky, because the People's Army began to accept prisoners, so after the People's Army disarmed the prisoners, they gathered in the square of the Taihe Hall and waited for processing.
