Chapter 101 The Flame of the Forbidden City, the Death Knell of the Qing Court

Whether it was the main battlefield in HUB province, or the battlefields in Gansu, Shaanxi, Henan, and Shandong provinces, the Qing army began to show signs of instability, and the commanders of the various ministries were also anxious and undecided.

It is certain that they are eager to return to the division as soon as possible. After returning to the division, the emptiness of the troops in the provinces is not within their consideration. Once the capital city will be occupied, the emperor will die at the hands of the enemy. Even if the place is defended, what is the use?But their biggest headache right now is how to get rid of Zheng Jun's entanglement. They don't need to think about it, and they know that Zheng Jun will not let them get out of the battle easily and return to BJ City safely.

Among them, Tuhai, the main battlefield in Hubei, was the most decisive. On the day of receiving the urgent report, he divided his troops into two, leaving most of the main force, and all the supplies and food. He only brought [-] cavalry across the state. Province, rush to help BJ City.

Of course, Liu Guoxuan would not let go of such a great opportunity, and took advantage of the opportunity to launch a full-scale attack. For a while, the Qing army was overwhelmed.

As for the four provinces of Gansu, Shaanxi, Henan, and Shandong, they are more greedy. They want to rescue BJ City, but they are unwilling to abandon the army under their command. He was followed all the way by Zheng Jun, not only lost most of the state capitals of the provinces, but also lost a lot of money.

Zheng Kezang's pupils shrank slightly, and he said decisively: "We don't have much time left, within three days, we must take down BJ City."

Wang Nan said with some concern: "Since Kangxi climbed the tower two days ago, the morale of the Qing army has been greatly boosted. Under the desperate situation, it is even more united. If we continue to attack, our army will suffer even more heavy losses. Even if we can win BJ City, it is also difficult to resist Tuhai, or even Mongolia's rescue army."

Zheng Kezang stared at the sand table, pondered for a while, and then gave an order: "Wang Nan, you should return to Fengtian Province quickly, mobilize all the troops, and deploy the front line of the Zhili border. This king will order Shi Lang's navy to land and fully cooperate with you. Be sure to let the Mongolian army An army of one hundred thousand cannot enter Zhili."

Wang Nan was shocked, and said in a voiceless voice: "My lord, think twice. Once Shi Lang's navy lands, our army will have no way out. We can only stick to one route. Isn't it too risky to do so? Also, the [-] cavalry that Tu Hai returned to aid How will you resist?"

Zheng Kezang's eyes flickered coldly, and he sneered, "Since Kangxi dared to play 'Break the Boat', why wouldn't I dare? As for Tuhai's [-] cavalry who came back to aid, don't worry too much. As long as I can get it tomorrow After going down to BJ City, the remaining time is enough for this king’s army to take a good rest and give them a big blow.” After a pause, he shouted: “Tomorrow morning, this king will go to the battlefield in person and break this BJ city in one fell swoop! "

Wang Nan's eyes lit up. Although he was worried about Zheng Kezang's safety, it could greatly boost the morale of the army.

In the early morning of the second day, Zheng Kezang came to the city of BJ in person just after dawn, looking around the entire battlefield.At this time, a new round of siege battles was in full swing, and Zheng Jun risked his life to attack the city gates over and over again, climbing the city walls.

The Qing army was also not to be outdone, and fought bravely without fear of death, repelling all of Zheng's troops. Even if there were one or two gaps, Qing soldiers would sacrifice their lives to block them immediately.This made Zheng Jun's siege troops unable to open up the situation for a long time.

"Beat the drum, help out!" Following Zheng Kezang's order, the rumbling drums sounded, and Zheng Kezang wandered among Zheng's troops, Zhou Rui and other generals followed closely behind him, guarding the left and right.

Wherever Zheng Kezang went, the morale of Zheng's army was greatly boosted, and they exploded with even more astonishing fighting power. For a while, they overwhelmed the Qing army, which exposed slight flaws in many places such as the city gates and walls.Although the flaw was small, it also gave Zheng Kezang enough opportunities to take advantage of.

Zheng Kezang's eyes lit up, and he jumped in front of the city gate in a few dodges. His whole body was full of momentum, pouring all his internal energy into his legs, and kicked towards the city gate in a row.Three huge foot shadows violently bombarded the city gate.

There was a loud "click", and a clear crack appeared on the giant wooden pole tied inside the city gate.

"Boom!" There was another loud noise, sand and rocks splashed in the city gate tower, and the entire city gate trembled three times, revealing another huge gap, and the giant wooden latch inside the gate was completely broken.

"Boom!" After the last loud noise, the city gate was completely opened, and the Qing soldiers behind the city gate were also blown away by the huge shock.

"Come on... kill..." The city gate was wide open, and Zhou Rui and other generals had already made preparations, leading Zheng Jun to rush in and completely invaded the city.

Although the Qing army in the city resisted desperately, they couldn't take care of each other head to tail, and fell into a disadvantage in all aspects.

But when the recovered Zheng Kezang joined the battle again, it became the last straw that broke the camel's back. The Qing army in the east of the city was completely defeated, and could only barely protect Kangxi and retreat to the Forbidden City.

The fall of the east of the city caused a serious chain reaction. The north, south, and west sides of the city were quickly lost one after another. The remaining [-] troops of the Zhengkezang Institute all entered the city and surrounded the Forbidden City.

In the Forbidden City, even the eunuchs big and small are counted, and all the people who can fight are counted as one. The total is less than three thousand, so how can they resist Zheng Kezang, the elite of the [-] elite who survived the battle.

In less than half an hour, the Forbidden City was completely breached.

In the Forbidden City, several palaces such as the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and the Palace of Kunning suddenly burst into flames. At the end of the road, unwilling to be humiliated, he set himself on fire, trying to preserve his last dignity.

These blazing flames burned not only their bedroom in the Forbidden City, not only the last dignity of Kangxi and others, but also the last hope of the entire Qing Dynasty.

BJ City was conquered, Kangxi set himself on fire and died. Although Zheng Kezang was ecstatic, he didn't care about celebrating. He simply rewarded the soldiers of the three armies and ordered him to hurry up and rest.

It should be noted that there will be a series of vicious battles waiting for them.Especially the [-] cavalry that Tuhai rushed back to aid, they couldn't let them go, otherwise great disaster would happen.

Three days later, Zheng Kezang left [-] troops to garrison BJ City.As for himself, he led the remaining [-] troops to ambush in the dense forest a hundred miles north of BJ City. This is the only main road leading to the capital.A heaven and earth net has been quietly opened, only waiting for the prey to plunge into it.

Two days later, the "rumbling" sound of horseshoes made the ground tremble.Perhaps it was because they rushed to BJ City too impatiently, but Tu Hai and his [-] army were unprepared, and fell into the trap set by Zheng Kezang without knowing it.
