Chapter Twenty-Eight: Go up to the house and draw a ladder, close the door and beat the dog
The answer is that it was a group of greens that opened the city gate for the breaking army.
Surprised? Not surprised?
Sometimes the reality is just that. Because in the books of many Donglin Party members, it is recorded that the city gate opened by the eunuch Cao Huachun. But the problem is that Cao Huachun is not Wei Zhongxian's group at all, he is the old man of the Chongzhen Hidden Mansion. Moreover, Cao Huachun and the Donglin Party are relatively close.
Of course, getting close to the Donglin Party, this point is actually useless, the Donglin Party itself knelt and licked Jiannu, compared to Cao Huachun to find Jiannu and ask to converge Emperor Chongzhen's request, the Donglin Party's "water is too cold" righteous gentlemen are more and more like villains. The Donglin Party, which has always been good at selling teammates, cares about anything else? You are a dead eunuch and you are not a righteous gentleman of our Donglin Party, under the annoyance and anger, who are you black? Cao Huachun, who finally saw the shameless face of the Donglin Party, finally reluctantly wrote, "The family has been slandered for six years, and I believe that it is not true in the past." ”
According to Wang Shide, a palace guard in the capital at that time, recorded in the "Chongzhen Testament", "(Beijing) in the southwest corner of the outer city, the place name Yan Pavilion, all returned to their residences. (March 17th year of Chongzhen) 18th, thieves attacked Guangning Gate urgently, the group of people advocated chaos to open the door, and the outer city fell. ”
Now the truth is revealed! A dead eunuch can't open the city gates! The point is that a group of greens have opened the city gates! If it weren't for the fact that the people in the capital at that time had almost died of the plague, it would have been a joke to break into Beijing!
Originally, in the later life, Chongzhen, who was unhappy because of those green people who always did things in the west, was even more unhappy now.
Since ancient times, the Son of Heaven was angry, ambushed millions of corpses, and the blood flowed and drifted. Emperor Chongzhen was unhappy, and Jinyiwei had to work again.
Glancing at Tian Ergeng, Chongzhen said: "Let your Jinyi guards dispatch, and Ma Aiqing will send a thousand white pole soldiers to cooperate." Be sure not to let anyone get away. If there is resistance, kill him! ”
At this time, the green and green of the Yan Pavilion were not too much, and with the cooperation of the ability of the Jinyi Guard and the white pole soldiers, they were soon captured. About an hour, Tian Ergeng and Ma Xianglin came back to resume their lives.
Chongzhen, who was discussing the military situation with Qin Liangyu and Man Gui, looked up at the two who came back, and saw that Tian Ergeng was already sweating finely, and he looked like he had palpitations. However, Ma Xianglin, although he was also sweating finely, he was more murderous than Tian Ergeng.
Tian Ergeng didn't wait for Chongzhen to ask, so he spoke first: "Your Majesty, you have been tortured again, but you have already confessed." As early as before Jiannu came, someone contacted them, agreed on the contact information, and after receiving the signal, they opened the Guangning Gate and let Jiannu enter the city. Moreover, there are people in the DPRK and China who have contacted them today, and it is not clear what the specific matter is, and the small ones are being tortured vigorously, and I believe that there will be results soon. ”
Thinking of what the greens and greens of later generations had done, Emperor Chongzhen, who was irritable in his heart, finally couldn't help but be angry and shouted: "This group of white-eyed wolves that can't be raised! No wonder it is said that 'the country will be chaotic if it is difficult to return'! Then he said to Tian Ergeng: "Lingnan Zhenfu Division and Neichang will send additional people to assist, as long as they get a confession, Xu Er and others will use any means." After the confession is asked, it is all disposed of. ”
Then he said to Ma Xianglin: "Hasn't Ma Aiqing been looking forward to killing Jiannu? It's just right, this time let's give them a ladder to go up to the house, close the door and beat the dog!
Tonight, Tian Ergeng's Jinyi Guard sent some good hands who knew how to talk back, pretending to be back, bluffing and fighting with Ma Aiqing's defending sergeants to lure Jiannu into the city. When Jiannu entered the city, he immediately closed the city gates. The Jiannu who entered the city were not allowed to be slaughtered?!
It's just that Man Aiqing has to work harder, but I'm afraid that Jiannu will feign to attack the city to cover back and open the city gate. ”
Then, several people discussed again, and after perfecting all the details, they dispersed to make preparations. And Chongzhen simply decided not to return to the palace, so he went to the city gate of Guangning Gate for one night.
That night, in order to cover the action of Haoge and his party to seize the door, Huang Taiji sent troops to attack Fuchengmen and Xibianmen. In order to transfer the defenders of Guangning Gate, Jiannu began to drive the soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Army to attack the city regardless of casualties, and even the elite of Jiannu itself was constantly sent to participate in the siege, and the main direction of attack was transferred from Deshengmen to Fuchengmen. As for the Xibian Gate, it is mainly based on raids.
Haoge, who had been lurking not far from the Guangning Gate early on, had been paying attention to the movements inside the Guangning Gate. First, some people on the city wall shouted to support Fucheng Gate, and some people shouted that they needed to leave someone to guard Guangning Gate. After tea time, I listened to the shouting and running sound on the city wall gradually moving away.
After another half an hour, Haoge, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time, suddenly heard the sound of shouting and killing in Guangning Gate for a while, it seemed that the two groups of people were merging, and the defenders on the city wall were shouting for people to call for reinforcements quickly, Haoge only heard more and more anxious.
After a while, the sound gradually became quieter, and Guangning Gate slowly opened a slit that could accommodate four or five people in parallel amid the creaking. Shouts began to be heard again in the distance inside the door.
Haoge knew that it should be the Ming army in the distance who was coming after hearing the movement here, and saw that it was a few people dressed in Huihui costumes who opened the city gate, holding torches and shaking them three times on the left and right, which was consistent with the code that Fan Wencheng's dog slave said before coming, and there were also a hundred and ten Huihui and many Ming army defenders lying on the ground, and the swords were also scattered all over the place.
There is no doubt that Haoge immediately sent someone to inform Huang Taiji's Chinese army, but he hurriedly led his troops into Guangning Gate, at this time the shouts in the distance were getting closer and closer, and it was about to reach him, and Haoge became more and more anxious.
When Haoge led the Zhongjiannu to rush into Guangning Gate, Haoge suddenly had a bad heart. But the Hui Hui and Ming soldiers lying on the ground did not have weapons in their hands, and the weapons seemed to be scattered on the ground at random.
Haoge, who had a bad secret path, was about to call the Zhongjiannu to retreat, but he saw that the Zhonghui who had just opened the city gate had taken the opportunity to close the city gate, and the Ming army holding a white wax pole kept pouring out next to him.
When the gate of Guangning Gate is closed, the army of Huang Taiji outside the city will also arrive, but it is facing the city gate that has long been closed.
Seeing that Haoge had fallen into the city, the angry Huang Taiji immediately sent troops to attack the city.
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen showed up in the city. Emperor Chongzhen, who has always had an incorrect outlook, made Huang Taiji half angry as soon as he opened his mouth: "Dog minion, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" ”
Huang Taiji saw Chongzhen appear in the city, and the shouting and killing in the city continued, but it gradually weakened and became inaudible. Knowing that Haoge in the lost city must be unlucky, he no longer sent troops to attack the city, but shouted at Chongzhen at the head of the city: "Dog barbarian! Wait for the Japanese Khan to break the city and never seal the sword! ”
Chongzhen at the head of the city sneered: "You come! If you don't come, you won't be raised by your father! ”
