"They're all gone?"

After being stunned for a while, Chongzhen muttered: "No wonder I saw that everyone had a different color on their faces yesterday, and I thought I was worried about national affairs, and I was really troubled in my heart, so I didn't ask about it." It turned out that they were all hidden from me...... Haha, it's good to go, well, it's good to go. I was martyred in Beijing, the crown prince ascended the throne in Nanjing, I still have something to do tomorrow, the most unfortunate, can I still rule by rowing the river. ”

At this time, Chongzhen's brain was much clearer, and when he said this, he sighed and said, "It's a pity that the prince is still a little younger." Those scholars in the south are even more difficult, with me, I can finally suppress some ill-intentioned people for him, I was martyred in Beijing, in addition to giving him some false names, some people even scolded him for betraying his father and running away...... Nothing else, there's nothing else. Alas, in short, I regret it! ”

"Emperor, it's too late to say this at this time...... The master waited for the emperor to arrive tonight, and the emperor repeatedly said that he would transfer troops, defend the city, and die in the community, and the master had no choice but to leave...... Don't resent, ......"

"Alas, it's not to blame, it's not to blame, I can't do it better than him!"

Hearing this, Wang Chengen burst into tears, but he only listened to the movement outside in his ears. The forbidden palace is not very far away from Zhengyangmen, and when I listened attentively, there were bursts of shouting and killing sounds near Zhengyangmen.

After all, it is an important gate in the inner city, in addition to Zhang Jinyan and other ministers, there are many lieutenant officials guarding it, among which there are of course some eunuchs who are loyal to Chongzhen.

These shouts of killing are probably the sounds made by the eunuchs when they resist.

At this time, Chongzhen calmed down, no matter what, what he was most afraid of in his heart was that the social judgment could never be continued, at this time I heard that the crown prince had fled, and his family was also to the south, no matter how he lacked family affection as an emperor, at this time his heart couldn't help but feel relaxed.

Looking at Wang Chengen, whose face was uncertain, Chongzhen only smiled and said, "You slave, it's good to hide it!" Without your help, no matter how capable the master is, he can't take so many people away without me. ”

Wang Chengen knelt down and said: "The slave is indeed bold, please ask the emperor to forgive the sin." ”

"You are a martyr, what do you sin against?" Chongzhen shook his head and smiled bitterly, and asked someone to fill the hidden Yulu spring wine in a golden cup, and drank it in a big gulp, and after a while, it was a big cup of wine.

"Alas," he said, shaking his head as he drank, "it seems that this eldest son of mine will be much stronger than me in the future, well, much stronger......"

……

……

After more than 200 years of construction and addition, the city wall of Yanjing City is incomparable in terms of the scope of its wide length and the construction and operation of various garrison measures, except for Nanjing, which has the Yangtze River and the mountain city, which has a favorable geographical location.

The city wall of this scale, the sheep and horse wall, the moat, the enemy tower, the arrow tower, the horse face, the urn city, are all available, in addition to the tall and thick city, there are a large number of arrow holes and holes for shooting firearms and bows and arrows, of course, more importantly, there are a lot of red-coated cannons!

After the surrender of the Yanyi Gate, the city gates such as Xuanwu and Xibian Gate were also opened, and thousands of Luo Hu's cavalry swarmed in, and the sound of gongs and alarms was everywhere in the outer city.

This wave of sound has already crossed the Zhengyang Gate and began to spread towards the Chongwen Gate and other places in the east.

The one who guarded the Chongwen Gate was Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, and not far from him was the Dongbian Gate guarded by Liu Wenbing, the Marquis of Xinle.

As soon as the news of the fall of the outer city came, the situation at the head of the city suddenly became unstable. Chongzhen put a lot of eunuchs guarding the town at the head of each city, because the civil and military officials couldn't believe it, except for a few royal relatives who could still rely on it, the rest were these eunuchs.

Wang Dehua and others had already agreed to surrender, and the city gates such as the Yanyi Gate were ordered to be opened by the eunuchs.

When the news came, several town guards and eunuchs looked at each other, and they all understood each other, and here in Chongwenmen, of course, it must be handled in accordance with the precedent.

It's just that there is an eye-catching royal family, and the big fact that he is scheming with everyone is also a big hindrance.

When it didn't make sense, I was far away, but I saw a fire dragon winding in the open space between the inner and outer cities, and under the bright light, it was like a forest spear halberd, and it was closer, but I saw countless felt hats and cherry helmets, and it seemed that countless cavalry in iron armor were constantly spreading and surging towards Chongwenmen from the corner of Xicheng!

"The thief, the thief is coming!"

A military attaché's face turned pale with fright, and he shouted when he pointed to the ranks under the city.

"What are you calling!" Several town guards and eunuchs were also pale, but they only gritted their teeth and said, "Hit the mouth!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, what kind of thief is it!"

There was movement outside, and Gong Yonggu, who had already gotten up, also came out in armor, and more than a dozen healthy servants of the Gong Mansion behind him were also wearing armor, hugging behind, and Gong Yonggu's eldest son at the head of the city also rushed over in armor, and more than 100 Ding Yong, who had recently spent money to raise training, followed closely.

"Fire, why don't you fire a cannon when you see the thief?"

Gong Yonggu was in a hurry, and at the same time he gave a loud order, not far in front of him, there were several red-clothed cannons weighing three thousand catties, or Chongzhen was helped cast by the Taixi people in the early years, used to defend the city, these cannons are enough for thousands of strong soldiers.

"Without the order of the sect master, no cannon is allowed."

"No fire!"

As soon as Gong Yonggu's voice fell, several eunuchs with arrogant faces also issued orders one after another, but the content was the opposite of Gong Yonggu.

No cannons!

Dozens of gunners had been waiting at the gun position for a long time, on the one hand, Gong Yonggu ordered the cannon, but on the other hand, the eunuchs ordered not to fire, and the gunners also looked at each other, not knowing who to listen to.

"Nonsense, I am ordered to guard this city gate, and everything is up to me." Gong Yonggu was furious, pulled out the sword at his waist, and said angrily: "If you don't fire any more cannons, you will be killed." ”

"The master of the horse is really majestic!" A eunuch sneered: "I just don't know how to kill us so much?" ”

By this time, the city was clearly divided!

Listening to Gong Yonggu's orders, and standing beside the Gong family's father and son, there are only a few hundred people, but behind a few eunuchs, there are three or four hundred, and the equipment and armor are undoubtedly the first of the Beijing battalion soldiers, but unfortunately, most of this generation is under the wings of eunuchs, and at this time, of course, the eunuchs are also the leaders.

"Shameless villain!" Gong Yonggu's eyes were red, and he scolded with his sword: "Listen to the Zhengyang Gate, there are also eunuchs, and there are more eunuchs in the inner eunuchs than you." ”

"Hmph, if you have a festival, you don't have a surname, who is so fucking stupid?"

"The emperor only rewards a few taels of silver a month, can we compare with your concubine?"

"Don't talk nonsense, persuade the horses to be honest, after a while, the army will enter the city and surrender with us, there are a lot."

"Hehe, it's just that you can't be a colt of the new dynasty at that time."

The eunuchs gossiped, but it was like a stinger on Gong Yong's heart, he stopped to step forward and fight with the other party's desperate son and cronies, lying on the battlements and looking down, but seeing that those cavalry had galloped closer and closer, he immediately smiled bitterly at his subordinates: "The prince has repeatedly instructed that you must guard the city gate and not go down the city easily." But now the outer city has been lost, and the thieves are also coming to the east city, and they are trapped in the city at this time, and they can't fire cannons, so what can they do? I've decided to go down to the city to fight, how are you? ”

"I am willing to rush to kill and die with my horses!"

"I want to be with the horses!"

Those who followed him, of course, also had a choice, so why ask?

At that moment, Gong Yonggu only sent a herald to Dongbianmen, telling Liu Wenbing that he had decided to go out of the city to fight and die in battle.

After ending the matter, thinking that his family had also moved south with the prince, Gong Yonggu just smiled on his face, and when his entourage brought the war horse, he climbed up, waved the sword in his hand and said: "Come, follow me out of the city to fight!" ”

He wanted to go out of the city to die, but the guards of the city gate did not come to stop him, but watched Gong Yonggu ask someone to open the city gate, and there were only more than 100 horses, but he killed them in the direction where the enemy rode over.

On the Dongbian Gate, not far from Gong Yonggu, after receiving the report, Liu Wenbing, the Marquis of Xinle, also took dozens of horsemen out of the city to invite attacks.

These two groups of cavalry are also mourning soldiers, after coming out, Li Shuangxi's troops were caught off guard, and the sky was still dark in the early hours of the morning, only with the help of torches and the faint light of the waning moon, several cavalry suddenly stopped and crashed together!

The horses neighed and the people shouted, the knife chopped and the axe cut!

Under the moonlight and firelight, but seeing the war horse crashing into the war horse, the knife and spear piercing the human body, and the dull sound of the knife and axe slashing on the human body was even more shocking!

Screams, cries for help, the click of a broken bone on a horse's hooves......

The blood is surging, but after a few dozen breaths of effort, this small battlefield presents a rare tragic scene, and the strong smell of blood almost makes people think that this is a big killing field for tens of thousands of people!

Although Gong Yonggu and Liu Wenbing rushed to kill fiercely, their commands were also carefully selected elites, but Li Zicheng's imperial cavalry was also worthy of being the first-class iron cavalry, and the two Ming troops of less than 200 cavalry had just entered the battle and dropped dozens of cavalry.

"Brother Liu, are you here too?"

Gong Yonggu's whole body was bloody, as a horse, although his martial arts were strong, but now, there was a chance to fight on the battlefield, and he was killed for a while, Liu Wenbing's arm was slashed, fortunately, the armor was heavy, so it was not cut off, at this time, he was torn into a bandage with his robe, hastily bandaged, listening to Gong Yonggong's words, Liu Wencan grinned, and only said: "You and I serve the country, just like this, Fang shows the true character of a husband." ”

"Well, the world is favored by the country, and it is appropriate to die in battle immediately!"

"Haha."

The two looked up to the sky and laughed, both understanding each other's intentions. This strong enemy is obviously going to the direction of Chaoyangmen, it must be an internal response in the camp, knowing the route of the master out of Beijing, it is likely to rush to the direction of Tianjin after Chaoyangmen is empty, in this case, of course, it is to fight to the end, and it can be delayed for a while!

At this time, the man's husband can only die, and only by looking up to the sky and laughing can he express the blood in his heart!
