Outside the southern city, more than 100,000 rebels, under the attack of the Ming army, have been crushed and fled.Although the rebels have 150,000, there are too few elite soldiers after all, and if the combat strength of the soldiers is relative to the Ming army, this may not be the result.As the sky grew brighter, the ground was littered with dead bodies, broken weapons, and burning flags.To the west of the bridge above, in a town on the banks of the Qinhuai River, the streets are littered with rebel corpses, and a small number of remnants are still hidden in each house.The more than 100,000 rebels outside the southern city collapsed under the attack of the Ming army, and Yan Yingyuan led his subordinates to rush left and right, but they were not allowed to come out, and finally they were forced into this town.At this time, in the ancestral hall in the middle of the town, Yan Yingyuan, who was covered in injuries, and several subordinates were sitting in the courtyard exhausted.At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and two Ming soldiers crashed into the courtyard and were shocked when they saw everyone.The Ming sergeant held a musket, raised his bayonet, and shouted: "Is it a rebel?"
”Zhu Ming's army and Zhao Ming's army were both equipped with Ming army equipment, and their armor was also very similar.Now after a scuffle, the armor is torn and stained with blood, and it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe.Everyone in the courtyard was silent, their eyes fixed on the Ming army who came in.Yan Yingyuan, who was sitting on the steps of the ancestral hall, was not frightened when he saw the Ming army that had come in, but raised his head and said indifferently: "My Yan Yingyuan also!"
”When the two Ming soldiers heard this, their faces changed, and at this moment, the rebel soldiers sitting in the courtyard suddenly burst out and slashed at the Ming army with a swing of their swords.A gunshot rang out, and one rebel was killed, but two Ming soldiers were cut down in a pool of blood by the rebels who swarmed up.The sound of gunfire caused the Ming troops investigating in the town to stop moving, and the leading officer took out his war knife and shouted, "Over there in the ancestral hall!"
”After finishing speaking, a large group of Ming soldiers with muskets and bayonets ran over from all the streets, looking for the direction of the gunshots.Yan Yingyuan looked at the corpse on the ground, then looked at the soldiers around him, raised his head, and looked up with unwillingness on his face, "It's over!"
Let's all find their own way to make a living!
”"Yan Gong!"
Several rebel soldiers couldn't help but kneel on the ground and weep bitterly.Yan Yingyuan waved his hand, "The general trend is like this, and the sky wants to die."
If you've done your best, let's go!
”The rebel soldier knelt still, "Yan Gong, what about you?"
”Yan Yingyuan's eyes were full of tears, "Such a fiasco, tens of thousands of soldiers died righteously, and Yan had no shame to live."
Besides, in the three hundred years of the dynasty, will there be no loyal ministers and deaths?
”"Let's go!"
After Yan Yingyuan finished speaking, he scolded loudly.The kneeling soldier bowed in pain before getting up and leaving, but he couldn't escape, so he could only surrender to the Ming army.Of the more than a dozen soldiers, only one remained.Seeing this, Yan Yingyuan couldn't help asking, "Why don't you leave?"
”The soldier kowtowed and said: "The villain has no family, so let's accompany Yan Gong on the Death Day!"
”Seeing this, Yan Yingyuan just bowed his head and didn't say more, and at this moment, the Ming army of the brigade surrounded the ancestral hall, and a captain led the gun-wielding soldiers of the brigade and rushed in.The pawn, with the knife in his hand, blocked in front of Yan Yingyuan, and with a wave of his hand, several soldiers stabbed their bayonets and stabbed them into the abdomen of the pawn, and then a row of bayonets approached Yan Yingyuan.Yan Yingyuan pulled out his sword, retreated to the steps, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Heaven's will is like this, Yan is dead today, may the regent treat the people well." ”After speaking, he killed himself with a horizontal knife and fell on the steps.Captain Ming Army, stepped forward to check the corpse, walked into the hall, and the wall was written, "Martyrdom for the country, worthy of loyalty, heaven and earth know me, and righteousness is a thousand years." ”The rebels launched a counterattack with all their strength, but the strength was too different from that of the Ming army.Although the plan was unexpected, the soldiers were not strong enough to carry it out thoroughly.The more than 100,000 people in Nancheng did not completely contain the main force of the Ming army, and the elite soldiers who attacked Zhao Ming's camp failed to defeat Zhao Ming's main formation.Zhao Ming picked up the iron rod and was ready to fight in person, but the rebels did not reach the point of forcing Zhao Ming to do it himself.Seeing Zhao Ming's reinforcements coming, Zhu Yihai was disheartened and hurriedly withdrew to the city, while the Ming army took advantage of the capture of the city, Li Chengdong took the opportunity to enter from the Taiping Gate and was the first to attack Nanjing.Zhu Yihai fled into the imperial city, and the soldiers and horses around him scattered in a hurry, leaving only dozens of henchmen who embraced Zhu Yihai into the palace.At this time, the palace was full of eunuchs and palace maids who were hurrying away with their burdens, a scene of the end of the dynasty.Zhu Yihai grabbed a eunuch who had escaped, his eyes were red, and he shouted and asked, "What about the emperor?"
”The eunuch said in horror: "Your Majesty~ Your Majesty seems to have gone to the Qianqing Palace in the backyard." ”Zhu Yihai pushed the eunuch to the ground, carried the sword, and went to the back court.Not long after, the group came to the Qianqing Palace, and the palace was also in a mess."
Your Majesty, come out!"
Zhu Yihai raised his sword and roared, and the whole person had fallen into madness.The army was defeated, the Zhu Ming clan would be purged, and Zhao Ming was in front of him, and the Zhu family was finished.Zhu Yihai decided to take Zhu Youlang to die together, and he couldn't let Zhao Zamao play with Zhu Youlang in the palm of his hand, making the Zhu family a laughing stock.Moreover, in Zhu Yihai's view, Zhao Ming regarded himself as a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty and supported Zhu Youlang, he must have wanted to play the tricks of Wang Mang and Cao Pi and engage in Zen concessions.Although Zhu Yihai was defeated, he couldn't let Zhao Ming ruyi, he had to die with Zhu Youlang, let Zhao Ming bear it, and force the notoriety of the monarch to death, no matter how he washed it, he couldn't wash it clean."
Your Majesty!"
Zhu Yihai raised his sword and shouted, but the empty hall did not respond, only his voice echoed.This made Zhu Yihai's heart furious, and he roared sharply, "Zhu Youlang, you get out of the way." ”There was still no sound in the empty hall, and there was no trace of Zhu Youlang, this emperor had already exerted his talents, and he didn't know where to hide.Zhu Yihai searched for it in the Qianqing Palace, but he didn't see Zhu Youlang, and he heard the noise in the city, and knew that Zhao Ming's men and horses had entered the city.Under grief and indignation, Zhu Yihai and his entourage came to the Fengxian Hall dedicated to the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and then ordered someone to summon the clan surnamed Zhu to come to the main hall.However, the clans had already rushed for their lives, and in the end, only Zhu Yihai's family and more than a dozen clans came.At this time, the noise had spread from Neiguo to the imperial city, and a large number of Ming troops rushed into the palace.Zhu Yihai then asked people to close the door of the palace, put his head out, knelt in front of the spiritual seat, kowtowed and cried, "Emperor Taizu, the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, the unfilial descendants, failed to keep the family business, made the thieves steal the artifact, and had no shame to see the ancestors underground!"
”Zhu Yihai's eyes were bloody, and he was extremely sad, and in the main hall, he looked like crazy.At this time, Li Chengdong led the army and entered the imperial city first, he waved his knife angrily, murderous, and shouted loudly, "Search, catch Zhu Yihai, there will be a heavy reward." ”The soldiers ran into the city, but suddenly saw a raging fire in the direction of the Fengtian Temple, billowing smoke, and rising to the sky.
