Chapter 22: Liu Fangliang uses soldiers

Wang Dehua means that there must be an empty city in the palace, and now there is not a single soldier in the city, this is not an ambush, don't be confused by the illusion, all the people and horses in Chongzhen, even including the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, are counted, and there are only a few hundred people at most.

The so-called three thousand beauties in the harem are all imaginary numbers, Chongzhen is not close to beauty, someone sent such a beautiful Chen Yuanyuan to the palace and put him on the bed, he was not interested, and finally cheapened Liu Zongmin and Wu Sangui.

In addition, last night, Chongzhen slashed and killed, even the princess died, the queen also hanged herself, the three princes were sent out of the palace, and Chongzhen only took a few dozen eunuchs to run around in the city.

How many eunuchs and palace maids are there in the palace like this, where are the generals? Of course, there may be Ouchi masters, but there are definitely not many.

It is feasible to besiege the city, saving Chongzhen and them from escaping from the palace and falling into the hands of others, such a big credit, isn't there nothing wrong with them?

Therefore, Wang Dehua means that there is no need to spend that big thing at all, and there is no need for so many people and horses, after the siege of the city, 3,000 men and horses are more than enough, and it is enough to rush into the city and capture Chongzhen alive.

Liu Fangliang and the others were waiting outside the city, and they didn't need him to do it himself, and when the time came, the two of them, as the main generals, would directly ask His Majesty King Chuang for merit and reward.

But Liu Fangliang did not agree with Wang Dehua, he insisted on leading 7,000 soldiers and horses as the second echelon, and rushed into the city to capture Chongzhen with his own hands.

Of course, Liu Fangliang has his own plans, let Ma Shiyao catch Chongzhen and enjoy it, and he personally grabbed Chongzhen and sent it to Li Zicheng, it is definitely different, you can't listen to this dead eunuch.

Therefore, he concentrated 10,000 elites, sent Ma Shiyao as the vanguard, and led 3,000 soldiers and horses to capture Nancheng.

March 19, that is, the evening of the day when Chongzhen hanged himself in history.

Li Zicheng's men and horses began to attack the palace for the first time.

The main direction of attack, of course, is the South Main Gate, that is, the Wuchao Gate.

Ma Shiyao was eager to make meritorious contributions, of course, in order to avenge the shot on his thigh, he volunteered and led 3,000 men and horses to line up outside the gate of the Wuchao.

Although there was no cannon to cheer it on, the 3,000 men and horses, including countless archers, ladder fighters, and death squads, were ready to climb the city.

Around Ma Shiyao, it is black and white impermanence, and these two characters in the rivers and lakes are under his temporary command.

Because Ma Shiyao was injured, Liu Fangliang asked two masters to help him.

Behind this team are 7,000 elite soldiers led by Liu Fangliang, Wang Dehua and Liu Rukui, who are the second echelon, and only wait until Ma Shiyao succeeds, this main force will enter the palace.

Tonight, Liu Fangliang is going to use an army of 10,000 to take Chongzhen Lianwo to the end.

There are 10,000 soldiers, and there is no boundary.

The area around the south gate of the imperial palace, including the streets and alleys of the imperial city in this area, are full of Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses, with mountains and seas, swords and guns like a forest, and the momentum is magnificent.

"Archers prepare, build bridges!"

As soon as Ma Shiyao gave the order, the siege began.

Of course, to attack the city, you must first rush through the moat.

The 3,000 men and horses and the 7,000 troops behind them, a total of 10,000 horses and horses have to enter the palace, of course, they can't crowd the five courts.

Another bridge had to be built over the moat.

In order to prevent the Ming army at the head of the city from obstructing, Ma Shiyao sent 200 archers to cover.

His generals were already ready, and 200 archers rushed to the moat, lined up, drew their bows and arrows, and aimed at the head of the city.

300 Dashun soldiers who were in charge of building the bridge ran to the moat at high speed with wooden planks, stakes and hemp ropes, and began to build a pontoon bridge like dumplings.

But at this time, there was still not the slightest movement on the city.

Could it be that the Ming army in the city turned a blind eye to this, and waited for them to build a bridge and climb to the top of the city? At this distance, if it were a normal siege battle, the defenders would have moved a long time ago.

Black and white impermanence has long been impatient, and it is too troublesome to build bridges, cross rivers and climb cities.

"General Zhang, isn't our task to attack the city and open the city gates? Look at ours! ”

These two people didn't allow Zhang Shiyao to speak, and flew out, as fast as flying, and when they arrived at the moat, a swallow came and copied the water.

Two black shadows of the moat three or four zhang wide flew by, and when they reached the bottom of the city, the two of them flew again, and both fell to the city.

The two of them showed their hands, and the soldiers of the Dashun army were a little stupid, the archers stopped aiming, the bridge builders also stopped, and the ladder hands, death squads, etc., all stared at these two people.

Fuck, flyer!

Zhang Shiyao and Liu Fangliang and Wang Dehua in the back took a look, these two people are really powerful, they are worthy of being people in the rivers and lakes, like having wings, they can withstand thousands of horses.

If these two men take the city gates, it will be easier.

Black and white impermanence carried a sword, flew up to the city to see, the city was empty, and the entire palace was empty.

The two looked at each other, could it be true that Wang Dehua was right, there was an empty city in the palace, where did the faint monarch Chongzhen hide, and the eunuch who could beat the dead, the little man, the brocade guard, etc., playing cat and mouse?

Why don't we open the gates of the city and let thousands of troops rush in and hunt you down!"

See where you can hide.

The two of them paid attention and flew down.

But as soon as they arrived at the palace gate, two powerful shadows flashed out, rushing towards black and white impermanence.

In an instant, the wind and thunder palm snapped towards the black impermanence, and the ghost head knife slashed towards the white impermanence.

Black and white impermanence is recognizable at a glance,

Little man Han Yin!

Flying on the grass!

Seeing the impermanence of the two of them, they had a little headache, and they had fought in Zhu Chunchen's mansion in the morning, and they could only bow down in front of the two.

Maybe there is a shadow in my heart, black and white impermanence is a little unbearable without a few fights, no, I have to run.

If so, what can we do with it? Let Li Zicheng's thousands of troops clean them up.
