Daming Haiku

Chapter 70 Unable to Return

At this time, the two sides had begun to be entangled together. Under the deadly impact of Zhou Yuji's army, the defense line of Yu's army began to become precarious at this time. A large number of officers and soldiers opened several channels, sneaked to the front of Yu's army's defense line, and then suddenly rushed out of his hiding place and rushed straight to Yu's home. The military defense line has greatly curbed the firepower advantage of Yu Jiajun.

At this time, the knife hands in the Yu family finally broke out. They took off the iron shell* they were carrying and tried their best to throw it at some * uncontrollable places.

At this time, the officers and soldiers used many obstacles to avoid the platoon gun shooting of the family army, all of which were crowded in some corners or corners, and rushed to the defense line of the family army nearby, so that the family army * could not play its full play its role and had no time to reload and launch, and could only fight with them with rifles.

But * can just deal with the officers and soldiers. Where there is noise, Yu Jiajun's knife players throw it away*. When their * is used up, they go to find the injured brothers. This time, the officers and soldiers are unlucky again.

It was not easy to get to the front of Yu's army and was about to rush out to go out to die. As a result, the iron hail began to fall on the top of his head. The thing exploded to the ground and blew up the officers and soldiers hiding behind the wall to the ground. After each explosion, a group of officers and soldiers screamed and fell to the ground.

As more and more Yu's army found that * could kill and injure a large number of officers and soldiers, more people took out * and began to throw it to the hiding place of the officers and soldiers.

Zhou Yuji came to the front line at this time and was leading his troops to attack the front line of the family's army. Suddenly, a * fell near him. After hearing a blast, Zhou Yuji immediately fell to the ground like an electric shock.

The soldiers rushed to rescue Zhou Yuji and found that Zhou Yuji's calf was seriously injured. A shrapnel almost cut off half of his calf, and his tendons were also cut off, and the blood flowed was no longer able to walk.

So the soldiers carried Zhou Yuji to withdraw, but Zhou Yuji completely ignored it, cursed, and ordered the soldiers to put it down, simply wrapped his wound, and continued to order a fierce attack.

Just as he shouted to continue to attack, a * fell into the yard again. After the explosion, his own soldiers were also blown up several times. Zhou Yuji fell to the ground again, and his lower abdomen was injured by a piece of shrapnel. Fortunately, he was heavily armored and the shrapnel was blocked. Although his armor was broken, it was inserted into his abdomen. Not deep.

Zhou Yuji lay on the ground, gritted his teeth and let his own soldiers untie his armor. He pulled out the shrapnel from his stomach with his hand, tore a robe, wrapped the wound, held his big gun, stood up again, and then shouted again to continue to attack.

However, although Zhou Yuji was brave, the soldiers under his command were far less brave than him. Many officers and soldiers looked at the brothers in front or around him being blown to death, and they had already been scared to lose their fighting spirit. Although Zhou Yuji shouted for a fierce battle, they still collapsed when they watched who went up and who died.

Many officers and soldiers began to move forward. Some officers and soldiers in front of them were blown up and jumped. They turned around and began to run back, and the whole army began to be confused.

Zhou Yuji cursed and ordered his officers and soldiers not to retreat without permission, but at this time, he was inconvenient to move and could not stop the collapse of the officers and soldiers.

At this time, suddenly there was a dense gunfire on their flanks, and then there was a shocking shout. A Yu family army suddenly appeared on the side of Zhou Yuji's army and hit them fiercely, and Zhou Yuji's whole army suddenly collapsed. , began to run away.

Zhou Yuji's own soldiers originally wanted to protect Zhou Yuji, but they were blocked in a yard by a group of Yu's soldiers. Although the own soldiers tried their best to protect Zhou Yuji, they were soon slaughtered by the Yu's army. A group of Yu's soldiers rushed to the hospital and tied Zhou Yuji to the ground.

It turned out that this group of Yujiajun was the headquarters of the first brigade of Yujiajun outside Chaoyangmen. After a hard battle, Yujiajun finally broke through Chaoyangmen and entered the city.

Just after Zhou Minghu surrendered and led his army into the city, the two battalions of the 7th Brigade entered the city and kept following the city wall towards Chaoyangmen.

The news that Dongzhimen was broken quickly spread to Chaoyangmen. Gao Qiqian was so scared that he lost his soul in the blink of an eye.

Yang Guozhu, who had just arrived at Chaoyangmen, was also strange. Why did he walk forward and the back foot of Dongzhimen was broken by Yu Jiajun? So he quickly sent people to inquire about the news while leading the troops to set up the defense.

At this time, the attack of the Yujia army outside Chaoyangmen was tight, and the defenders in the city heard that Dongzhimen had been broken. The army was suddenly confused, and for a moment, they could not resist the fierce attack of the family army.

In addition, after some of the soldiers of Yu's army entered from Dongzhimen, they immediately killed Chaoyangmen. Although Yang Guozhu had the intention to serve the country, he was unable to control it. Some of the 3,000 soldiers he brought were not his former subordinates. In the chaos, his military order did not play much role at all, even if it was his subordinates of Zhili. At this time, people were also panicked and at a loss. In addition, the officers and soldiers who were originally guarding here did not listen to his command.

So it didn't take long for the two battalions of Yu's army to attack the Chaoyangmen area from Dongzhimen. The defenders here only resisted a little and dispersed. The generals of the Yu's army quickly dispersed the officers guarding the gate, seized the Chaoyangmen, opened the gate from the inside, and then Yu Xiaotian led a large number of Yu's troops to rush in. Rushed into the capital.

At this time, the defenders had already fled and fled without a trace. Yu Xiaotian only made a little arrangement. He dispatched troops and began to rush to Chongwenmen, Zhengyangmen, Xuanwumen, and Deshengmen of Andingmen in the inner city to control the gate of the inner city first, disperse the defenders there, and drive them out of the inner city or force them. Go to the west of the city and find a way to solve them later.

As for himself, he led the Guards battalion and an elite infantry battalion and went straight to the imperial city. On the way, he heard the sound of fierce fighting around the Meridian Gate. He knew that the Ming army must have begun to launch a counterattack on Qiu Qinghui's troops there, so he dared not neglect and ordered all his subordinates to run forward. , rush to the Meridian Gate as fast as possible and solve Qiu Qinghui's crisis first.

And when he led his troops to feel the Meridian Gate, it was the time when Qiu Qinghui led his troops to fight Zhou Yuji's troops and began to collapse. Coupled with the fierce attack of his strong guard battalion and another infantry battalion, Zhou Yuji's troops were almost completely annihilated in the Meridian Gate area by the Yu's army, and the remaining defeated soldiers dispersed into the city.

At this time, the city was full of escaped soldiers. The discipline of these Ming army was very corrupt. Taking advantage of the collapse of the soldiers, many people robbed their homes in the city. If they like some families, they immediately broke into the door, * the property of the people, ** humiliating their wives. Women can be said to do all kinds of evil, just to make a lot of money.

At this time, Yu Xiaotian was not free to take care of these matters. After defeating Zhou Yuji's troops, he immediately sent troops to Xihuamen. At this time, Xihuamen also encountered a counterattack by officers and soldiers, but it was far from the fierce battle on the Meridian Gate. After the reinforcements arrived, he besieged Xihuamen in just a moment. The gang was defeated, and the whole perimeter of the imperial city was basically stabilized.

The progress of all departments of Yu's army in the capital was very fast. Everyone rushed to the designated place and launched a fierce street battle with the officers and soldiers stationed there. The officers and soldiers saw the Yu' army entering the city, and the whole army immediately collapsed and fled to the west of the city.

Although Cao Huachun tried his best to control the soldiers and horses, he was already powerless. In fear, a large number of officers and soldiers began to open Fuchengmen, Xizhimen and Deshengmen to escape from the capital and fled to places they thought were safe.

At this time, the defense system of the whole capital division collapsed. The soldiers could not find generals, nor could they find soldiers. A large number of Ming soldiers took care of themselves, and no one could care about the emperor in the imperial city. Either they took the opportunity to make a mess in the city, or they wiped oil on the soles of their feet and escaped from the capital.

Although the strength of Yu's army is not large, because of the collapse of the heart of the officers and soldiers defending the city, they basically did not encounter much resistance. However, in some places, they encountered the desperate resistance of a small number of loyal officers and soldiers. However, in the face of the superior firepower of the family army, their resistance seems to be very Pale, soon either was defeated on the spot or beaten, and the whole army was destroyed.

So the progress of Yu's army is very fast. When it's dark, Zhengyangmen, Chongwenmen, Chaoyangmen and Andingmen in the inner city have been taken down by Yu's army. Only Xuanwumen, Fuchengmen, Xizhimen and Deshengmen in the inner city have not been controlled by Yujiajun.

After night, Yu Xiaotian ordered a rest, build a barricade defense line at the gates that had been captured to stabilize the current results, and began to deploy troops to gather at Xuanwumen and Deshengmen to prepare for the midnight attack these two gates.

Yu Xiaotian himself led his troops to the outside of the Meridian Gate and observed the towering palace in the night from afar.

For the Meridian Gate in front of us, it is now known as Chengtianmen. Yu Xiaotian is very familiar with it. Outside the Meridian Gate, there is a T-shaped square built in this era. Although it is not as big as later generations, it is also quite meteorological. On the east, west and south of the square, a palace wall has been built to surround Chengtian Gate. In addition, in addition, the east of this Three more palace doors were opened on three sides in the southwest.

The location of Yu Xiaotian is actually not the Chengtian Gate, but the Daming Gate outside the Chengtian Gate. Now the palace gates here are closed, and the gate is dark and dead.
