"I have a plan, and I have a decree to seal it. 〔<〔 八(一[(小[語网 ?] What is the plan? Do you agree to canonize or not? When is it calculated? What is the covenant? King or Marquis or Official?

Chongzhen's words were vague, of course Li Zicheng would not be satisfied with such an answer, and in order to further put pressure on the city, Li Zicheng immediately ordered to continue the siege.

Chongzhen's hesitation and desperate desire to save face brought him unexpected trouble.

That night, at about the third watch, more than 100,000 Dashun troops broke through the outer city of the Beijing Division, pouring into the capital like a tide, and countless torches and knives and guns made the entire capital turn up like a bottom overnight.

Everywhere were the people who were running and shouting, and the defeated soldiers, eunuchs and court officials, under the bright swords and guns of the Dashun army, they were silent and trembling.

After learning that the city was broken, the worried Chongzhen was stunned for a long time and said nothing.

In the end, Chongzhen sighed and said, "That's it! Bitter to my people's ears! ”

Immediately ordered someone to send the crown prince, King Yong, and King Ding to the home of Zhou Kui and Tian Hongyu, the ministers of foreign relatives. Then let Empress Zhou and Concubine Tian commit suicide.

When the sky will be bright, Chongzhen rings the bell to summon hundreds of officials, he wants to see, the Ming Dynasty has been raising soldiers for three hundred years, and when the country is ruined, there is a person who is willing to die for the Ming Dynasty.

But no. Not a single one.

It is said that when the Southern Song Dynasty fell, 200,000 soldiers and civilians threw themselves into the sea and died in the country, but now when the Ming Dynasty fell, no one came to accompany them.

The matter has come to this, what can I do?

Chongzhen then climbed the coal mountain with the support of Wang Chengen.

At this time, the sky had already dawned, the east showed the color of the fish's belly, and Chongzhen, who was exhausted and despaired, sat in the pavilion, looking at the firelight of the city in the distance and the earth-shattering shouting of killing, and wanted to cry without tears.

The three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty were lost in their own hands! The Baishi foundation left by my ancestors was destroyed in the hands of me, Zhu Youzhen! Firmament! How thin you are for me!

The desperate Chongzhen cried for a while, and finally he bit his finger, took the placket of his book as a testament, and then hanged himself in the mountain pavilion with silk.

The last edict left by Chongzhen was written in blood: I despised Liangde, and I was to blame for the heavens, causing the traitors to approach the Beijing Division, and all the ministers were mistaken. When I died, I saw my ancestors without a face, and I took off my crown to cover my face, and let the thieves split, without hurting the people.

It's desolate enough to think about it, Chongzhen, as the king of a country, at the last moment of the country's broken mountains and rivers, only the eunuch Wang Chengen has always been by his side and hanged the mountain pavilion with him.

Chongzhen's last edict has always been controversial in history, some people say that he is still shirking responsibility until his death, saying that the officials mistook him. Some people also say that from this edict, it can be seen that Chongzhen is a good person, and he is still sympathetic to the people until his death, so that Li Zicheng should not hurt the people.

In any case, Chongzhen is indeed a diligent monarch. There is no monarch in history who has worked as conscientiously as him, who has never slackened his efforts for state affairs.

In essence, he Chongzhen is indeed to blame for the fall of the Ming Dynasty, but his fault lies in his ability, not his character. What he said in his last edict was all mistaken by the ministers, but it was not a complete excuse. The fall of the Ming Dynasty was also largely caused by the continuous party struggle among the ministers of the imperial court.

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are all in a party for personal gain, and there is endless infighting, and Chongzhen, whose ability is not very good, is in vain?

Chongzhen has another one, which is also unique. In China's thousands of years of history, countless monarchs have been captured or killed by the enemy, but only Chongzhen committed suicide.

With his own life, he drew an end to the Ming Dynasty's 'Son of Heaven guards the country, and the monarch dies in the society'.

。。。。。。

On the official road leading to Xiangyang, a long red dragon wanders around, which looks quite dazzling in the winter of Xiao Suo.

This is the army of King Qinwang in the north led by Mo Li himself, 90,000 horses galloping on the official road in the mountains, the soldiers are like forests, the flags cover the sun, the people are noisy and the horses are neighing, there is no end in sight, stretching for several miles, and the prestige is very prosperous.

When it was about twenty miles away from Xiangyang, it was almost dusk, and Mo Li ordered the army to be stationed on the spot and camp.

Xiao Yang, who was in the forward, was ordering to go down to camp and rest, when he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves from a distance, and he couldn't help but look up.

I saw a horse rushing in front of me, and the knight on the horse looked anxious, and kept beating the horse, desperately urging the horse.

It is not difficult to see from the outfit on his body that this is a messenger, and he is so urgent to fight a horse, it can be seen that there must be a big incident and urgent report, what is going on?

Xiao Yang hurriedly asked people to greet the messenger and bring him to him.

The messenger's mount was already foaming at the mouth, and his strength was exhausted, and the messenger was also exhausted, panting and saying with difficulty: "General, general, take me to see your lordship, something is wrong in the capital!" ”

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Mo Li, Guan Feng, He Zhenbei, Xiao Yang, Dongfang Jin, Li Xin and others all sat intently.

The messenger said that on the fourth day of December in the fifth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng led his troops to break through the capital, the emperor and the queen all fell, and the corpses were displayed on the streets.

Li Zichengyuan was also not allowed to collect the burial, and then Gu Junen persuaded him to order someone to collect the burial hastily.

Li Zicheng then received the surrendered court officials, the officials below the fourth rank appointed a group of courtiers who flattered Dashun, and the rest of the relatives, civil and military officials were sent to Liu Zongmin's military camp, tortured and looted to obtain gold and silver, and those who were about 10,000 gold in their families asked for 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, and the number was slightly dissatisfied, and then they were severely tortured, beaten and branded, and they were extremely vicious and endless.

This is the case for civil and military officials, and the common people are not spared. Due to the extremely fast development of the Dashun army, it is inevitable that the good and the bad in the army are uneven, and the military discipline of many soldiers is extremely bad, plus Li Zicheng and others who first entered the capital, they can't help but be overjoyed, just like an old beggar who has been poor all his life and suddenly got countless mountains of gold and silver, and the pride in his heart is not only forgetting, it is simply forgetting his roots, otherwise he would not let Liu Zongmin wantonly plunder the officials of the old dynasty......

The so-called upward and downward effect, Li Zicheng is still like this, and the soldiers and generals under him have intensified. For a time, the whole capital was full of chickens and dogs, families were exhausted, and there were many complaints, but the people in the city dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, and a good capital almost became a purgatory on earth......

Mo Li listened silently, his expression was solemn, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

The rise and fall of the dynasty is the general trend of the world, and no one can do anything about it. But as a new dynasty, what it does is not as good as the old dynasty, how can the world return to its heart? No wonder Li Zicheng was defeated in a hurry after entering Beijing for less than a month, this person didn't have any vision at all, I really don't know how Song Xiance, Gu Junen and others would treat him as the master.

Guan Feng, Li Xin and others were silent. It can be said that except for Mo Li, all the people in the world, especially the common people, regard the emperor as the piece of heaven above their heads, but now that the sky has fallen, none of them have come back to their senses for a while.

After the shock, Dongfang Jin was silent for a long time, and slowly said: "My lord, the emperor unfortunately died, and in the current situation, my lord must come up with a plan and deal with it as soon as possible." ”

Oh, yes! Now what? Do you want to continue to march towards Beijing?
