Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 16 Assassination of Chongzhen
The city was changing equipment, and the outside of the city was not idle. Li Zicheng dispatched another 2000 troops from the Ming Dynasty, and brought [-] red cannons.Seeing the cannon in red coming, Liu Zongmin laughed triumphantly:
"Hahaha, Your Majesty, with these cannons, give me another 2 horses, and I promise to blast open the gates of the capital in three hours and enter the Imperial City of Ming Dynasty."

"What do you think, military commander?"

Seeing Liu Zongmin asking for a fight, Li Zicheng did not immediately agree, but asked Niu Jinxing for his opinion. Niu Jinxing laughed and said:

"Your Majesty, I don't recommend attacking the city immediately. The capital will be in our pocket sooner or later. There were a lot of casualties in the first battle today. We should study it carefully and launch a general attack tomorrow."

"Niu Jinxing, you..."

Liu Zongmin gave Niu Jinxing a hard look, and was still cursing. He felt that Niu Jinxing was trying to punish him on purpose.

Li Zicheng's face darkened:
"Huang Hu, speak well and don't quarrel. Listen to the military division first today. After we study the tactics, you will still be the vanguard."

Seeing Li Zicheng getting serious, Liu Zongmin didn't dare to be rude any more, and then all the generals of the Dashun army participated in formulating the general attack plan against the capital.

Shunjun's tactical plan was formulated after two hours of discussion and research.

In the first battle, 6 Ming soldiers surrendered, armed with [-] red-clothed cannons, opened the city gates redly, or smashed down the walls of the capital, opened the gap in the defense of the capital, and commanded Tang Tong.

In the second formation, 10 Dashun recruits, commanded by Liu Zongmin (strongly requested by myself)
In the third formation, 5 Dashun old battalion soldiers commanded Hao Yaoqi.

In the fourth formation, Dashun's 5 elite infantry was commanded by Tian Jianxiu.

In the fifth formation, 10 ordinary cavalry in Shangdashun, commanding Yuan Zongdi.

In the sixth formation, Shangdashun 5 elite cavalry, commanded by Li Guo
Commander-in-chief Li Zicheng, Niu Jinxing and two other military advisers.

The [-] firearms battalion and the [-] elite cavalry did not participate in the battle, and were responsible for protecting the safety of the commanders of the Chinese army.

In this way, the general offensive tactics of the Dashun Army were completed, and no one had any objections to this tactical arrangement, not even Liu Zongmin, who was always stabbed, did not speak this time.

Seeing that no one objected, Li Zicheng issued an order:

"The new barracks has stepped up its guard. The old barracks and the elite infantry and cavalry will all rest well and prepare for the general offensive tomorrow morning."

"obey"

It can be seen from this tactical arrangement that Li Zicheng really does not have a million troops to besiege the capital, and the number of troops should be around 40.

There were not many rogue cavalry, but after the attack all the way, the Ming army surrendered one after another, and Li Zicheng's cavalry quickly grew, reaching 15.

But there are only 8 elite cavalry and [-] elite infantry that are truly capable of fighting.

These are Li Zicheng's main possessions and his reliance.

The surrendered soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were treated as cannon fodder by him, and rushed to the front line of the battle, followed by the new barracks, and finally Li Zicheng's headquarters and elite troops attacked.

It can be said that they are scheming, even if all the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and the new army camp were killed, the loss of the Dashun Army is still acceptable, and their elites have not yet been recruited.

The capital city was also ready at this time. Three hundred red cannons were placed on the top of the city. The new army, the Shenji battalion, and the Xuanjia iron cavalry took turns to guard, and the other troops began to rest.

Zhu Youjian did this to preserve his strength for tomorrow's decisive battle. Their weapons are advanced, but they have to guard against Dashun's crowd tactics.

As the night gradually deepened, there was silence in the capital city, and the people were not allowed to go out. On the street, there were only Dongchang Changwei, Xichang Changwei and Jinyiwei patrolling the street.

In the dark night, this kind of silence is somewhat terrifying. At the critical moment of Da Ming's life and death, no one knows whether it is the darkness before dawn or whether Da Ming finally fell.

"Shhhhh..."

In the silent night, suddenly six figures flashed by. These six people were very fast, and they scurry through alleys and houses to pick out remote places, gradually approaching the Qianqing Palace.

At this time, the Qianqing Palace was also silent, there were only three Jinyi guards on duty in front of the door, and the lights in Zhu Youjian's residence were still on.

Ah Qing, a Yue girl, has fallen asleep on a grand teacher's chair, and Zhu Youjian, Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, is also lying on the dragon bed and fast asleep.

Although Jinyiwei and Dongxi Factory have quite a few people, but in such a large capital, of course they can't take care of everything.

In order to prevent rebellion and riots, Zhu Youjian sent everyone else out, leaving only three Jinyi guards in Qianqing Palace to guard the gate.

The six shadows quietly stopped on the roof where Zhu Youjian slept. They were all men in black wearing black masks and black cloth.

One of them has a petite figure. Judging from her body proportions, she should be a beautiful woman. From her gestures, it can be seen that she is the leader of these people.

At this time, a masked man quietly approached the leader and whispered:

"Saint, it seems that the information is very accurate. There is really no one in the Qianqing Palace. Old Chongzhen would never have thought that we would come to kill him."

The saint looked back at the speaker, and exhorted:

"Everyone should be careful. Three elders, go deal with Jin Yiwei. The two guardians and I entered the room through the window. Remember to be clean and tidy, and retreat quickly after you are done."

The six squatted on the roof, discussed in a low voice, and then prepared to do it. Their voices were so soft that only a few of them could hear them.

The person who came was the saint of the White Lotus Sect, the three elders and the two guardians.It can be said that in order to help Li Zicheng, the White Lotus Sect also worked hard, and almost the entire core leadership was mobilized.

After Qinglian, the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect, made arrangements, the six of them began to act. The three elders quietly approached the three Jinyiwei, and suddenly raised their hands, and three white mist rushed towards the three Jinyiwei.

This kind of white mist could not be found in the dark night, Jin Yiwei suddenly felt a little dizzy, and hurriedly shook his head to wake himself up.

The three of them are dedicated to protecting the emperor, and there must be no mistakes, or Qinglong will chop off their heads. When a Jin Yiwei shook his head, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

He seemed to see three black shadows rushing towards him. For fear of waking up the sleeping emperor, he didn't shout loudly, and prepared to draw a knife to protect the emperor.

But it was already too late, the three of them came too fast, before the Jinyi Wei Xiuchun knife was drawn out, they felt a chill on their necks.

He opened his mouth to shout, but found that he couldn't make a sound, turned over and fell to the ground. Almost at the same time, the necks of the other two Jin Yiwei were cut off.

Although Jin Yiwei is good, not all of them are as powerful as the four commanders, most of them are second-rate.

Don't underestimate the second-rate skills, hundreds of such people are together, once the first-rate masters are besieged, they can only seek their own death.

Although the three elders of the White Lotus Sect are top-notch masters, in order to ensure the completion of the task, they decided to use drugs first, and after taking care of the three Jinyiwei one-on-one, they kicked open the main door and entered the room.
