Chapter 936: Nikan's wishful thinking

However, things did not turn out as the Yixing Dynasty monarchs and ministers had imagined.

When the people are in turmoil, like mercury leaking out of the ground, how can it be so easy to rely on thousands of forbidden troops to block the news?

The next day, not the second day of June, the day after the outbreak of the war.

At the beginning of the Yin period, the people broke through the barricades set up by the forbidden army on the Jinchuan River and flocked to the Jinchuan Gate.

Is it really impossible for the forbidden army to stop it?

Naturally, it won't, but the composition of today's forbidden army is different from that of the forbidden army of the Ming Dynasty.

The soldiers of the forbidden army in the Ming Dynasty were all taken from the children of officials.

Basically, the children of the common people cannot enter the forbidden army.

This is also to prevent the people of the capital from being able to quickly pacify the forbidden army.

But in today's forbidden army, the soldiers are all from the children of the Gyeonggi Liang family.

In other words, many of the people in the forbidden army were the children of the rebellious people.

In the face of his father and brothers, how can he be forcefully blocked?

Listening to Dong's voice, "Ergou, you dead child, dare to stop your father?" ”

Listening to Xi's sentence, "Sanwa, all our family's savings have been greedy by the government of Dog X, and you are still working hard for them?" ”

When such words are heard in the ears of the soldiers, how can they still have the intention of hindering them?

As a result, the rioters flocked to Jinchuan Gate.

At the beginning of the day, the defenders of Jinchuan Gate mutinied.

After hearing that his life savings were corrupted, and the palace guards killed the people.

The soldiers were extremely angry, Lao Tzu was loyal to the country on the city wall and fought hard with the enemy, but was stabbed in the back by his own people?

Headed by a thousand households surnamed Huang in the left camp of Jingwei, together with a part of the right battalion, about 5,000 people left their posts without permission and went south in the opposite direction to seek justice with the imperial court.

As the rebels passed through the Jinchuan River, they clashed with the forbidden forces stationed there.

The forbidden army let go of the people, that is a last resort, no one has the courage, or can't bear to be an enemy of their own family, but the duty is to let this rebel army go south, that is to be complicit with it.

In a hurry, the two teams clashed violently, which turned into a battle.

At three o'clock, the ministers in the palace heard the bad news, and their faces turned pale.

When the army is under control on weekdays, it is called the army.

But when it comes to uncontrollable, it's a bandit!

Woe to you, especially bandits.

But at this time, the eldest princess had already set off for two hours from Zhengyangmen, and it was obvious that she couldn't dissolve the fire from afar.

Go and report to Zhu Cihong.

Zhu Cihong's face was full of tears, and he had nothing to do, only said, "I have retreated and introspected, and all state affairs are handled by the eldest princess."

Shoufu Huang Daozhou and his ministers had no choice but to send thousands of forbidden troops in the palace to reinforce the Jinchuan River.

In order to stabilize the situation and ensure that there is no chaos in the city.

Huang Daozhou is a capable minister who governs the country, and he is also upright.

But he is really not good at arranging troops.

In fact, in this case, Huang Daozhou should concentrate on the forbidden army and defend the imperial city.

Instead of scattering already stretched forces.

And how much effect can a thousand forbidden troops play in reinforcing the Jinchuan River?

It is definitely impossible to annihilate the rebels, so wouldn't adding to the fire fuel the fire?

The most important thing is that the enemy is still eyeing the enemy outside the city.

Only by holding on to the imperial city, and then Huang Daozhou himself went to the Jinchuan River, explained the pros and cons to the rebels, and made promises and guarantees to the rebels and the rebels on behalf of the imperial court, in exchange for the people's understanding and hatred of the enemy.

This is the way to quickly quell the chaos.

The people of the capital themselves did not want to help the abuse, they were only angry that their interests were infringed upon by the government, and with the instigation and instigation of ill intentions, it turned into a civil unrest.

Outside the Hongwu Gate, the forbidden army mishandled the situation and shot the people, turning the civil unrest into a riot.

But at this time, the rebels were still under control, because they were only angry and were treated unfairly.

As long as there are enough courageous people to persuade and promise, this rebellious army can still return to the battlefield to resist the enemy.

It's a pity that the Yixing court missed this opportunity.

It is not entirely to blame the mishandling of the Zodiac Zhou.

In fact, Huang Daozhou also thought of doing this in his heart, but he was more worried that his departure would make the imperial city fall into the hands of the enemy.

In fact, it is already very clear that the unprovoked disappearance of dozens of officials, including Qian Qianyi, is not a simple civil unrest, but someone is fueling the flames, but now is by no means the time to investigate, at this time, the investigation will make people panic, once even the palace is in chaos, the struggle at the west and north gates will be no one to command and manage, then everything is over.

Therefore, Huang Daozhou did not dare to leave the imperial city without knowing who was loyal and who was traitorous among the hundreds of officials in the palace.

This prompted Yixing Dynasty to be on the line of life and death, and it was in danger.

……。

Nikan received a report from the scouts that the defenders of the Jinchuan Gate in the northern city seemed to have a change.

He was also surprised, but after thinking about it, he still didn't send troops.

The reason is that it is dark, in case the defenders make a trick and dig a pit for themselves to jump, why bother?

And the hour is only half an hour before dawn, and if there is a change in the defenders, it will not be half an hour.

Therefore, Nikan only ordered the army to prepare for the siege, but did not immediately order the siege.

This half-hour delay made him lose a chance to break the city easily.

If Nikan quickly ordered the siege of the city, then the Qing army would be able to easily break through the Jinchuan Gate, and perhaps the imperial city with empty troops would be broken in one fell swoop.

Then, I am afraid that all the monarchs and ministers of the Yixing Dynasty will become prisoners.

Nikan is really likely to have made a monstrous contribution to the Qing court.

Of course, for half an hour, the Yixing Dynasty could not do anything effective to deal with the situation of the dragons without a leader, this opportunity is still there, but the follow-up changes and results are difficult to say.

……。

Just after three o'clock, the sky was already slightly white.

Nikan, who was waiting for dawn, immediately ordered the Qing army to attack the city.

At this time, the five city gates in the west and north, except for the defenders of Jinchuan Gate, who have already gone for most of the troops, the remaining four gates have not been affected because of the distance from Jinchuan Gate and the time is less than an hour.

Therefore, the attack of the Qing army in the remaining four gates was still blocked to death.

But soon, due to the lack of troops, the defenders collapsed after holding out for half an hour.

The Qing army attacked the city wall and opened the city gates.

At this point, Yingtianfu, which had 120,000 defenders, was broken by the Qing army on the second day of the attack, when it was actually less than 12 hours.

Nikan was overjoyed when he heard the good news.

It is a pity that the Qing army divided its troops to attack the five city gates, and the Qing army assigned to the Jinchuan Gate only had a total of 10,000 people. In the two-day attack, the Qing army suffered many casualties, and the Qing army that entered the Jinchuan Gate was about 8,000 people.

Unable to quickly mobilize the follow-up army into the city, Nikan made a difficult choice, that is, to order this Qing army to attack to the west, with the intention of attacking both inside and outside, and forcing the defenders of Yifeng and Zhongfu to surrender.

Because these two gates are the closest to Jinchuan Gate, as long as the three gates are allowed to meet the Qing army, then, even if the gods are reincarnated, I am afraid that they will not have the power to return to the sky.
