Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 414 Soldiers enter the Daming Mansion
In just over two hours, Zhu Yousong commanded an army of 20 to defeat Dorgon's 12 Tartars in a field battle in the south of the city.

Although this battle is won by more than few, it is also unique in the history of the late Ming Dynasty. Especially in field battles, the Ming army has almost never won. What are the three major armies in the late Ming Dynasty and what are the legendary white soldiers? There have been victories in battles, but they were all local wars, and Zhu Yousong's battle can be regarded as an epoch-making battle, which severely damaged Dorgon in one fell swoop.

Now Dorgon fled to the city in a hurry with the remnants of the defeated generals. When he reached the south of the city, there was a fight on the top of the city and at the city gate.It's not that he has both ends, but that he was defeated by Zhu Yousong and became a frightened bird. To put it bluntly, he was frightened by Zhu Yousong.

Don't look at the Qing soldiers who reported that Hong Chengchou was eliminating the spies in the city. As a politician and military strategist in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Dorgon had his own judgment. Although he didn't know how the Ming army got into the city, the number of people It must be quite a lot. His artillery battalion has 3000 troops, and there are [-] elite soldiers guarding the south gate alone. In broad daylight, he can kill the scattered artillery battalion and the thousands of soldiers guarding the city gate with great fanfare, and seize the fort and the city gate. Door, this is definitely not the work of a few spies.

What's more, now that Zhu Yousong personally supervised and led an army of 20, he was biting behind his ass, so Dorgon didn't dare to enter the city rashly before he knew the situation in the city, but walked around the city from the south city.

There are big rivers in the west and north of the city. They followed the river to the east city, west city and north city. After confirming that these three city gates were in their own hands, Dorgon entered the city with the defeated soldiers.

Seeing the remnant soldiers and defeated generals around him, he roughly estimated that more than half of the soldiers who followed up, plus the guards in the city, Dorgon planned to defend the city before the Ming army entered the city, and wipe out all the Ming troops who entered the city In this way, by defending against danger, they can linger on, and then dispatch troops to restore the battle.

Therefore, after Dorgon entered the city, he led tens of thousands of soldiers without stopping to fight towards the south gate of the city.

However, Dorgon was wrong again. Here Dorgon entered the city with the defeated soldiers, and Zhu Yousong's troops also entered the city from the south gate.

The Daming Prefecture City is high and the pool is high, and the defense is not strict. Even without long-range artillery fire, more than 1 Qing troops defended the city, and it would not be easy for the Ming army to attack in a short time.

However, at this time, not only the artillery on the top of the city has become dumb, but now the top of the city has become a battlefield. Hong Chengchou sent thousands of people to retake the fort. In this case, the Ming army attacked the city, which will inevitably affect the Qing army's defense of the city.

What's more serious is that at this time, there was also a fierce battle at the Nancheng Gate. Three thousand Qing troops rushed to the Nancheng Gate to retake the city gate under the order of Hong Chengchou. Li Quan and Liu Chunhong led [-] warriors to fight desperately.Due to the disparity between the number of warriors and widows, there are no more than one of the two hundred warriors, but they vowed to live and die with the Nancheng Gate. At this moment, Zhu Yousong's brigade reached the bank of the moat and attacked the city aggressively. Li Quan and others were greatly encouraged.

At this time, Liu Chunhong, who was guarding the suspension bridge and the Qianjin gate mechanism in a bloody battle on the top of the city, shouted excitedly: "Quickly open the city, welcome your majesty to enter the city!"

As he said, he jumped over, clicked and stabbed a few times, the ropes of the suspension bridge were cut off, and the suspension bridge, which was pulled up high, appeared out of nowhere, and a loud noise came across the moat abruptly from the air, and the earth and rocks turbulent. Otherwise, it may break, and the bridge body stabilized after shaking a few times on the moat.

At the same time, several Ming soldiers wearing Qing army uniforms on the top of the city stirred up the Qianjin gate, and Li Quan opened the inner city gate. The three gates were opened one after the other, announcing the end of the Tartars in the city.

A steady stream of soldiers of the Ming army poured in from the south gate like a flood, and the battle between Li Quan and Liu Chunhong was immediately reversed. Thousands of Tartars were about to wipe out Li Quan and Liu Chunhong, the spies. , to capture the southern city, but the arrival of a large number of Ming soldiers turned their hope into a nightmare, leaving a lot of corpses, and the rest scattered into the city.

A large number of Ming troops rushed into the city and advanced towards the city. A Ming army, including Li Zhushi, commander of the artillery battalion, killed the top of the city along the horse road and advanced forward with an irreversible momentum. The army quickly disappeared, and the Ming army rushed to the fort defense line several kilometers long. He Zhaoxiong and his daughter, who were about to lose their hold, let out a sigh of relief. In time, the thousands of Qing troops who came to retake the fort were either thrown from the top of the city or died in the chaos.

At this time, Li Zhushi, covered in blood, came to He Zhaoxiong, cupped his fists and saluted, "Master, how many cannons and ammunition did you get in total, and is there any damage?"

"Hahaha," He Zhaoxiong laughed and patted Li Zhu on the shoulder and said, "Commander Li, the 45 cannons and [-] boxes of ammunition are all intact, and they are all here, and I leave them to you!"

"That's great, thank you my lord and empress..." Li Zhushi was overjoyed. At this time, he saw He Xuanjiao who swung his sword and beheaded the last tartar who had nowhere to escape. He also hurriedly saluted, but He Xuanjiao ignored him He just smiled at him with a blushing face, floated off the horse path, and went to ask her majesty to ask for a reward.

At this time, there were only more than 300 soldiers of the artillery battalion who followed Li Zhushi, because they had no horses, and the army that killed Dorgon chased several miles to the top of the city, all relying on two legs, and the physical exertion was too great , due to limited personal physique, some fell behind.

"Brothers, the casualties are excluded, and those who are left behind will be liquidated! It's still the old rule, the guns are there, and the guns destroy people!"

"The cannon is there, and the cannon destroys the people!"...

Li Zhushi raised his arms and shouted, and everyone responded. Li Zhushi led more than 300 soldiers from the artillery battalion to take over the fort at the top of the city, and then soldiers from the artillery battalion arrived one after another. Go back and train them in a small way according to Liu Zhaoji's military training mode.

These people blushed and had thick necks, but they knew that they had dragged down the other soldiers of the artillery battalion, so they were only ashamed and had no complaints.

This is the situation at the south gate of the city. 20 Ming troops rushed into the city and advanced with a destructive momentum, annihilating the vital forces of the Tartars. It was getting dark, and the city was still fighting fiercely. It's fire.

Near the north gate, Hong Chengchou came to see Dorgon in embarrassment with only more than 100 personal guards, "My lord, I am humble and incompetent. A bandit army actually dived into the city beforehand. It was unexpected. It was unexpected. Please forgive me, my lord."

Hong Chengchou has already found out. 1000 people entered the city, all pretending to be the Qing army. It is impossible that there were no clues. Now the Tartars have found these clues in a mass grave near a ditch in the city.

"Zhu Yousong!...Zhu Yousong——" Dorgon didn't have time to punish Hong Chengchou's crime, so he said two identical names, but when he said the first name, he gritted his teeth, and when he said the second name, he gritted his teeth. Sighing with regret, he dived into the city, thanks to him Zhu Yousong could figure it out, where did all these water ghosts come from?

Without thinking about this, Dorgon knew that the Daming Mansion could no longer be defended. Now not only the south city, but also the east city and west city had all fallen into the hands of the Ming army, leaving only one north gate.

"Withdraw!" Dorgon's face turned liver-colored in the firelight, extremely ugly, and squeezed out a word.
