The decaying Ming Dynasty has finally embarked on its end of the road!

In the first month of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty (1643 AD), Li Zicheng established power in Xiangyang, and after he broke Chengtian (now Zhongxiang, Hubei), he was called "Generalissimo of Fengtian Righteousness", and his brother Luo Rucai (Cao Cao) was called "General Weide on behalf of the people of Tianfu".

Seek to take Jingxiang as the foundation, change Xiangyang to Xiangjing, and change Tianfu to Yangwuzhou. and with the words of Niu Venus, he set up officials and knights. Li Zicheng has no children, and his brother Li Guo and his wife and brother Gao Yigong are on the left and right, and they are close to trust. Tian Jianxiu and Liu Zongmin are the generals of power, and Li Yan, He Jin (Zuo Jin Wang), and Liu Xiyao (the king of the world) are the generals. Zhang Nai, Dang Shousu and others are mighty generals, Gu Kecheng Ren Weirong and others are Guoyi generals, and there are twenty-two generals in the five battalions. It also placed civilian posts such as the prime minister, the left auxiliary, and the right bi, and there were government officials such as officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, and local political power such as prefectures and counties were also established.

Don't underestimate the establishment of this dynasty, it shows that the power of a hostile force is full, not only a rogue force, but a righteous regime, and the impact on the existing orthodox regime is extremely great!

The so-called heaven is the only day, when the Northern Capture established power in the Northeast, the Ming monarchs and ministers collectively lost their color, and they were shocked for this reason!

In March of that year, the internal fire of the Liukou merged, Li Zicheng killed Luo Rucai, Xun attacked and killed Lin Chengcheng (the king of troubled times), and seized the horse and guarded the Ying (Lao Huihui) soldiers. Ma Shouying switched to Zhang Xianzhong, plus those who were killed by him and died in the hands of the official army, so far, only Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong of the original thirteen anti-thieves survived, and the order was unified and their strength increased greatly.

In May, Zhang Xianzhong was called the king of the west, broke Hanyang and Wuchang, bound Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, and sank into the river. killed the Chu clan and called him the king of the west. Wuchang was changed to the Heavenly Grant Mansion, and officials were set up and scholars were opened. Fa Chu Di Jin relief for the hungry. Twenty-one prefectures and counties, including Qi and Huang, were attached, and another anti-thief regime was established.

Since February, the Beijing epidemic has caused countless deaths.

It is unlucky enough to say that if there is any drought or flood, as long as people are alive, they can go to the southeast government, or the southeast government can directly transport grain to buy people to leave.

But as soon as the epidemic broke out, the people in the southeast province fled quickly, and everyone died, and Daming was really in trouble.

"Chuan Ting is dead, Da Ming is dead!"

Sun Chuanting, the last famous general of the Ming Dynasty, couldn't stand the urging of the anxious Chongzhen Emperor in Tongguan, and fought with untrained recruits, but was defeated by Li Zicheng, and Sun Chuanting committed suicide and martyrdom.

Since then, Li Zicheng has never had any opponents.

As the biggest opponent of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng was on the verge of death several times, and the army was completely lost at the worst time, and he only had 18 horsemen around him.

But they all allowed him to escape and finally counterattacked.

And the overall situation of suppressing thieves at the end of the Ming Dynasty or the battle with the Jurchens outside the pass, there were also excellent opportunities and dawns, but due to various reasons, some of them were the overstepping command of Emperor Chongzhen, or they were suddenly delayed and there were moths that led to failure.

Now, Li Zicheng wants the life of Daming!

In October, Li Zicheng broke Xi'an and changed its name to Chang'an, called Xijing.

In November, Li Zicheng broke Yan'an and changed it to Tianbao Mansion, and connected the Weibei Prefectures, north to Yulin, west to Longyou (west of Longshan).

In December, he sent the forward forward east into Shanxi and west to Ganzhou (now Zhangye, Gansu).

Li Zicheng controlled the Ming Dynasty step by step, and wherever he went, there was no opponent.

When bad news came to Beijing one after another, a good news suddenly came from the Beiyu, and Huang Taiji died.

Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty died violently, and Zifu was on the throne, which was Emperor Sejongzhang, and was assisted by Prince Rui Dolgon and Prince Zheng Jierharang, and the next year was changed to the first year of Shunzhi.

This is a belated good news, the Ming Dynasty has always been suffering from fighting on both sides, and the lord Shaoguo is suspicious on the Beiyu side, so he just has his hands free to deal with the rogue.

However, all the generals who could fight in the Ming Dynasty died, and the soldiers who could fight were gone.

Daming ushered in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen in a bleak wind and cold rain, which is the Jiashen year of the lunar calendar, and the change of Jiashen is coming!

Li Zicheng built the Dashun regime, said that the eighteen sons were the main artifact, and he clearly said that he wanted to sit in the Dragon Court! On the third day of the first month, Li Zicheng founded the country in Xi'an, the country name Dashun, Jianyuan Yongchang, changed Xi'an to Chang'an, called Xijing. Meritorious heroes, official positions, military system, price leveling, opening a department to take scholars, and informing people from far and near.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Li Zicheng's million-strong army (known as) set out from Xi'an, crossed the Yellow River eastward, and the troops were divided into two routes and went straight to Beijing!

In February, Li Zicheng occupied Taiyuan, after Li Zicheng led the Dashun army to capture Fenzhou (now Fenyang, Shanxi), on the eighth day of the first month, he captured Taiyuan and ruled Zhu Qiugui, the king of the Ming and Jin Dynasty. Looking for Shangdang (now Changzhi, Shanxi), Zhangde (now Anyang, Henan), breaking the solid pass, Zhending (now Zhengding, Hebei), and sending farewell to the south of Jinan.

On the 16th, Taiyuan fell, the reports of defeat were frequent, and the Beijing division was shaken!

People are panicking, and they all say that the number of Da Ming Qi has been exhausted, and the Da Ming pill.

Emperor Chongzhen was so worried that he complained to his ministers, "Why don't you know how to worry about me!" “

There are still loyal ministers, Zuo Zhongyun Li Mingrui praised "The thieves are arrogant, approaching the Beijing Division, this sincerity is in danger of survival, only by moving the capital to Nanjing, can we solve the current urgency, so as to try to conquer the merit again!" ”

This is a good policy, I think that Song Gaozong Zhao Gou fled all the way south in order to escape for his life, and moved the capital I don't know how many times, Songzhou, Yangzhou, Jiankang, Yuezhou, Hangzhou, etc., are all where he stayed, and finally settled in Hangzhou, which was very embarrassing.

The situation of Emperor Chongzhen is much better than that of Zhao Gou, although the north and the Central Plains are rotten, but the south of the Huai River is complete, the place is vast, the regime is stable, and there is a completely good reserve administrative team.

In fact, in June last year, Empress Zhou proposed to move the capital, and she was "anxious" to test her husband, "There is still a family in my south!" It refers to Nanjing, the capital of China.

But the relocation of the capital was such a major event that the auxiliary minister Zhou Yanru was imprisoned for moving the capital, and then it was gone.

Now that Li Mingrui brought up the old matter again, Emperor Chongzhen summoned his ministers to discuss the relocation of the capital, but he did not expect that there were few people who agreed, but he opposed the relocation of the capital on the one hand.

Ministers have learned their lesson!

Before the Ming Dynasty had a change in the civil fort, the emperor was captured, and Beijing was besieged, didn't someone once proposed and supported the relocation of the capital?

The names of those people have been firmly nailed to the shameful monument of history, and Yu Qian, who opposed the relocation of the capital, is famous in history!

Who would dare to mention moving the capital?

The key is that everyone has seen through Emperor Chongzhen's personality, in case the capital is moved, when it comes to the proposal of moving the capital in the future, the emperor will say, "It's not that I want to move the capital, but the ministers are afraid of death and force me to move the capital!" ”

Yes, whoever dares to mention the relocation of the capital is looking for death by himself, this emperor is not responsible, not authentic, we can't take the fire for him!

And the ministers still have such a dark mentality, even if Li Zicheng really overthrows the Ming Dynasty and changes the dynasty, can they rule the world with these mud legs?

Ruling the world still depends on us professionals, and we are just changing the court and changing the master.

So, when the emperor repeatedly signaled, Chen Yan and Wei Zaode, the cabinet scholars, kept their mouths shut, and their henchmen, the military department gave the matter of Guang Shiheng, jumped out and resolutely opposed the relocation of the capital, he said impassionedly, "The Son of Heaven guards the country, it is the ancestral family law, this Li Mingrui proposed to move the capital, it violates the ancestral system, and disturbs the hearts of the people, and it is not enough to kill the world!" ”

The word of the crowd, the ministers of the same caliber said, "The ministers seconded the proposal!" ”

Chongzhen had to express his attitude, "The ancestors have worked hard and fought hard, and they are determined to be in this land, if the thieves come, I go alone, how can I be worthy of the Zongmiao Sheji, how can I be worthy of the millions of living beings in Beijing, even if it is impossible to do anything, the death of the monarch is the righteousness of the righteousness, and I will never move south!" ”

In order to show his determination, Li Mingrui was beheaded by Li Mingrui, and Li Mingrui was beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market to show the public!

Since then, no one has dared to mention the relocation of the capital.

Li Mingrui died generously, his face was not afraid, he only sighed, "I am not Lu Zijing, Your Majesty is not Sun Zhongmou, and there is no Zhou Gongjin!" ”
