Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 545 I will not be worse than my ancestors

Zhu Yousong's words were like a hurricane, and Niu Jinxing outside the door almost flew away, especially the remarks that he thought he was a petty official stabbed him like a knife. It's time to light a fire.

Gao Yigong didn't see it well, so he quickly stopped the soldiers who lit the fire secretly, and pulled Niu Jinxing to a farther place, and said in a low voice: "Lord Zhongtang's ingenious plan is about to succeed, isn't this lighting the fire all previous efforts in vain? It will be very difficult to put out the fire when it burns, Lord Zhongtang should think twice."

Niu Jinxing said angrily: "General, it's not that I'm not calm. The general has also seen it. After dragging on for so long, if the emperor refuses to submit, then he has to be serious. Do we have to let them go? When will it be done?"

The night is long and the dream is many, and the late will change.Of course Niu Jinxing understands this reasoning, he now thinks that Zhu Yousong can't easily submit, that's the only way to ignite the fire.

Gao Yigong was puzzled and said: "But Master Zhongtang, if you light the fire, it's like sending a message to the Ming army. The Ming army will attack the city aggressively. What can I do?"

"So what about attacking the city? The capital still has [-] strong troops. Even if they attack, their monarchs and officials will have already been reduced to ashes. By then, the dragons will have no leader, and my lord will be able to turn the tide."

When Gao Yigong heard it, wouldn't your plan of setting fire to the hall and forcing the faint king to submit to you come to nothing?Haven't we been tossing around for a long time?We have to build a big hall, and if we want to listen to us, we will directly ambush Zhu Yousong and his ministers after they enter the city.No wonder my sister-in-law said he was a dog-headed military advisor, that's really disgusting!
Therefore, Gao Yigong said disapprovingly: "Your Majesty Zhongtang can't do it. You have to be careful now. The faint king is already stuck, so you can't rush for success. It is not difficult for him to ask to see His Majesty before negotiating terms. A certain general's humble opinion, I'd like to ask Your Majesty." The verdict is supreme, I don’t know what Master Zhongtang thinks?”

Don't look at Gao Yigong's polite words, and he is Niu Jinxing's subordinate, but when Gao Yigong said something, Niu Jinxing had to think about it. He still doesn't dare to procrastinate in front of Gao Yigong. Ever since he came up with a clever plan for Li Zicheng to marry Zhang Xianzhong to deal with Zhu Yousong, the queen's wife treated him differently.

If Li Yan's death had not been completely blamed on Gao Guiying back then, now Li Zicheng's only biological daughter has become Zhang Xianzhong's concubine under his management. He knows it.

Being distrusted by the empress, Niu Jinxing knows how powerful she is, and this empress is not an ordinary harem, intriguing, relying on pillow wind to act, Gao Guiying is a heroine, not just sleeping with Li Zicheng, this is a fierce warrior who charges into battle and takes the head of the enemy Girl, if you really want to annoy him, you will be out of luck.

Moreover, the current capital is roughly divided into two factions, one is the surrendering faction headed by Gao Guiying, including some family members of Gao prisoners of war, such as Li Guo's wife, Yuan Zongdi, Liu Fangliang's inner family, etc., these people all advocate surrender The court; the other is the main combat faction headed by Ta Niu Jinxing, Li Guo, Tian Jianxiu, Gao Yigong and other generals also supported the fight to the death with Zhu Yousong.As the head of the family, Li Zicheng seemed a little vacillating. This time he tricked Zhu Yousong into entering the city and imprisoning the Long Qinzheng Palace, and it was entirely his Niu Jinxing who insisted.

This time, Niu Jinxing sent troops to order Niu Jinxing from his heart. He didn't want to bring Gao Yigong. He wanted Li Guo or Tian Jianxiu to do it, but this was the general Li Zicheng assigned to him. He didn't dare to pick and choose, and he knew that If such a great achievement as Kunlong allows others to take a share of his Niu Jinxing's contribution, it must be a higher contribution in terms of ranking.

Gao Yigong is not only strong in martial arts, but also in strategy. He has made outstanding achievements in recent years. What are you talking about Tian Jianxiu.

Therefore, Niu Jinxing had no choice but to listen to Gao Yigong's words.So Niu Jinxing's three-pointed star turned around a few times and nodded, "Okay, I will follow the general."

Gao Yigong sent someone to invite Li Zicheng, and Niu Jinxing came to the main hall again and shouted inside: "Your Majesty, Emperor Ming, since you think Niu is soft-spoken, Niu has already gone to invite His Majesty, you can think about your conditions." , His Majesty will be here soon."

"Well, very good." Zhu Yousong agreed, smiling secretly, I have already thought about the conditions, and I will let you know in a while.

"Your Majesty, are you not afraid that Niu Jinxing will really ignite the fire?" Hui Mei leaned over and couldn't help asking Zhu Yousong in a low voice.

Zhu Yousong sneered, "Hmph, I thought they wouldn't light the fire easily, and the time had come sooner, but if he jumped the wall in a hurry, he really lit the fire, and I recognized it. Do you think I would agree to their conditions? One of Li Zicheng's conditions back then I don’t even agree to it, and now they are intensifying the three conditions, and I will not agree. Don’t look at me being trapped for a while, so what? I am the 300-year-old Guozuo, no matter which emperor is wise and powerful in the eyes of future generations It is still inaction, and there is no record of kneeling and peace. Even the Yingzong was captured in Tumubao, and the Ming Dynasty never succumbed to foreign thieves. Now can I succumb to an internal thief? The emperor guards the gate of the country, the king dies, and the ancestors line up Zong has set an example, don't worry, I will not do worse than them!"

These words made the blood boil of the two women and two men around him, wishing they could die for Zhu Yousong now.

His gaze shifted to Nishinomiya for a while.Li Zicheng and Gao Guiying brought Zhu Yousong and his ministers into the city, saying they were bathing and changing clothes, but in fact Li Zicheng hid under the pretext of hiding and sent Queen Gao Guiying away.

Xinuang Pavilion was the palace of his concubine Dou Meiyi, who was the court lady of Emperor Chongzhen. After Li Zicheng entered Beijing, he fell in love with her beauty, and accepted him as his concubine. He only slept with her for one night in the palace. After entering, Li Zicheng was reluctant, so he took Dou Meiyi to abandon the capital and ran away. When he arrived in Xijing, he named her the empress of the West Palace. The empress of the main palace was of course the emperor Gao Guiying of the East Palace.

Li Zicheng hid in the West Palace, and the beautiful and flowery Empress Dou hurried to wait on her, but Li Zicheng was in a mess and didn't care about men and women.

Although Zhu Yousong was tricked into the capital city, 10,000+ troops were besieged outside the city, and the war was imminent. So the impenetrable Tongguan didn't last for a few days. How long can Xijing last if it really fights?The city is about to fall, and everything is in vain.He had to think twice about what the queen said, even though the queen couldn't let Huiying and Huimei go.But if he surrendered, his own daughter would have suffered from Zhang Xianzhong, but Niu Jinxing could not be completely blamed for this.Can Zhu Yousong be trapped in front of him, and then reach an agreement to force them to retreat and then discuss peace?These things are all in Li Zicheng's mind.

At this time, someone came to report that Zhu Yousong and his ministers had been trapped in the Palace of Qinzheng, and that Niu Jinxing was forcing Zhu Yousong to submit, and victory was in sight.

Li Zicheng was very happy. Niu Jinxing's plan was really clever. He could trap the dragon in the Palace of Qinzheng without a single shot. Now the initiative is in our hands. I don't believe that this stupid king will not give in.First kill the four lowly Huiying, cut off the queen's thoughts, then force the faint king to retreat, and then make a long-term plan to make a comeback.

Seeing that the emperor was happy, Dou Meiyi used a woman's seductive method to serve her again. Li Zicheng just embraced the beauty in her arms, when the inner prisoner shouted outside: "The empress is here——"
