Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

"Hmph, do you still want to fight back?" Zhao Wen snorted contemptuously, and said to Song Hu behind him, "Send the order to take down the fort on the top of the city!"

When Zhao Wen's order was conveyed to the artillery position, some artillery in the artillery position stopped and began to adjust various parameters.

After a brief adjustment, the artillery fired again.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

The shells flew towards the fort on the city wall with a whistling sound.

"Boom boom boom!"

Not long after, dozens of flames flashed on the city wall.

The impact of the explosion threw the bulky red cannon into the sky, and then fell heavily on the city wall.

The cannon body of the red cannon was severely deformed and could not be used again.

The sound of the red-clothed cannon was severely distorted and could no longer be used.

The high temperature of the explosion ignited the gunpowder stored in the fort, and a secondary explosion occurred.

The gunners in the fort and the soldiers around the fort were shrouded in violent explosions.

The soldiers who were relatively close to the explosion range were swallowed by the explosion. These soldiers lost their traces and lives without even screaming.

Soldiers who were far away from the explosion were overturned by the air wave generated by the explosion, or were hit by fragments generated by the explosion.

The voice of participation came out from the mouths of these soldiers, echoing non-stop on the city wall.

Cao Huachun was located far away from the fort, so he was not affected or seriously injured.

However, the scene of the explosion left him stunned and speechless for a long time.

I saw several deep pits where the fort was originally located, and the rammed earth inside was blasted out.

The surrounding blue bricks were blown up and flew everywhere, and the surrounding area was full of broken corpses.

The blood on these corpses dried up under the high temperature and condensed on the corpses, making it ugly and smelly.

Cao Huachun is just an eunuch, where has he seen such a scene?

At that moment, Cao Huachun covered his mouth and vomited on the edge of the city wall.

The explosion continued, and the city wall kept vibrating during the explosion.

The soldiers on the wall began to panic.

These soldiers have completely forgotten the vows they made before. Under the bombardment of this kind of artillery fire, how can these soldiers remember what they said.

Although the artillery fire was not aimed at them, the shells that flew on the city wall from time to time touched their heartstrings.

Every time a shell hits, a soldier dies.

This feeling was like betting their lives, which made these soldiers panic.

These soldiers were just peasants farming the land before. Where have they seen such a scene?

"What's going on here? Is this the thunder god from the sky?"

A soldier was frightened by the explosion on the city wall. He knelt on the ground and stared blankly at the explosion on the city wall.

Gunpowder smoke permeated the city wall, melting the snow on the city wall.

The falling goose feather snow was washed into the sky by waves of air waves.

"Run for your life, run, these people are not human, run!"

A soldier couldn't hold on any longer. He dropped the weapon in his hand and ran to the stairs behind the city wall without turning his head.

His run was like dominoes, causing all the soldiers on the top of the city to flee.

The soldiers on the top of the city began to rout, and this was a rout that started before they even touched the enemy.

Cao Huachun looked at the fewer and fewer defenders on the top of the city, his face was livid.

"You all come back to our family, you all come back to our family, you group of murderers, come back to our family!" Cao Huachun yelled hysterically.

However, his roar could not be heard at all, the explosion covered his roar, only the guards around him could hear it, as for the others, they couldn't hear it at all.

"Eunuch, we can't keep it anymore, let's retreat quickly, let's retreat to the palace quickly, and protect His Majesty to leave the capital!

Father-in-law, we must not be able to stand the city wall anymore. Instead of doing this, why not hurry back to the palace and protect His Majesty to leave! "A personal guard shouted at Cao Huachun in a panic.

Cao Huachun's expression calmed down a bit. He looked at the soldier and said, "You're right, you're right. Anyway, the city walls can't take it anymore, so let's leave quickly!"

After saying that, Cao Huachun took the guards behind him and ran to the stairs behind the city wall.

The bombing continued, and violent explosions continued to spread toward both sides of the city gate.

The walls on both sides of the city gate collapsed layer by layer during the bombing.

The rammed earth layer under the blue bricks was blown up with smoke and dust, which mixed with the gunpowder smoke, covering the side of the city gate.

"Stop the shelling!"

Zhao Wen held up the binoculars and watched the smoke and dust at the gate of the city getting bigger and bigger. He estimated that the bombing was almost over, so he ordered the artillery to stop the bombing.

When the gunpowder smoke cleared, a huge hole was torn open at the city gate.

Just like the gods wielding a sledgehammer to beat here, the city gate and the city wall near the city gate were abruptly broken.

"The city gate has been bombed open. Order all soldiers to prepare to enter the city according to the previous plan." Zhao Wen looked at Song Hu who was standing beside him.

Song Hu hurriedly ran towards the distance with Zhao Wen's order.

Not long after, the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time headed towards the broken city gate in batches.

These soldiers were wearing woolen coats, thick cotton caps, and holding weapons, running towards the city gate non-stop.

Zhao Wen looked at the soldiers in front of him through the binoculars, with a relaxed expression on his face.

Attacking the capital was effortless for Zhao Wen.

Because of the accumulation of heavy snow and the fact that there were almost no cleaning personnel outside the city wall, the snow outside the city wall was very thick, which slowed down the progress of the soldiers.

Cao Huachun rushed down the city wall under the protection of his personal guards, and he hurriedly asked his personal guards to gather the defeated soldiers.

However, the rout at this time is not so easy to gather.

These rout soldiers have been scared to death by Zhao Wen's artillery, and they just want to escape from this place as soon as possible.

Cao Huachun noticed that there was no explosion sound behind him, so he turned his head and looked behind.

A huge hole was torn open at the city gate and the city wall near the city gate.

"There is no movement, Zhao thief may be entering the city." Cao Huachun was startled.

"Hurry up, hurry up, go back to the palace, I'm afraid Zhao thief will charge in soon!"

Cao Huachun pulled out the waist knife hanging from his waist, and led the guards behind him to run towards the palace.

While running, Cao Huachun asked the guards behind him to gather the defeated soldiers.

Cao Huachun hadn't run forward for a long time before Zhao Wen's infantry rushed into the city gate.

After Zhao Wen's soldiers entered the city, they first took control of the city wall, and then cleared up those rout soldiers who hadn't had time to escape.

Seeing Zhao Wen's soldiers, these rout soldiers threw away their weapons and raised their hands to surrender.

For these rout soldiers, they couldn't resist the bombing just now, let alone these soldiers now.

Zhao Wen's soldiers took control of the city wall and began to spread into the capital.

At this time, the spies in the capital also rushed to the city wall.

On the way here, they also captured some rout soldiers.

At the same time, Chongzhen, who was sitting in the warm pavilion, looked out the window, frowning tightly.

"call!"

Chongzhen took a deep breath, and said in a stuttering voice: "The bang bang bang disappeared, did your companion guard it?"

As soon as these words were said, Chongzhen's face changed drastically.

"Impossible, this kind of violent explosion, even if the companion is a god, there is no reason to defend it!" Chongzhen suddenly stood up from the chair, his face was pale, and his face was ashen.

Wang Chengen's upper teeth and lower teeth kept colliding, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the capital has already fallen!"

Although Wang Chengen didn't want to believe it, even a fool could think of it now.

"Falled? Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Chongzhen's expression suddenly changed drastically, and the expression on his face also became strange.

"Haha, it's impossible, it's impossible, it's impossible!"

Chongzhen suddenly laughed strangely, his face was full of madness.

He pulled out the sword hanging on the wall and rushed out of the room.

Before Wang Chengen could react, Chongzhen ran out.

"My lord!"

Wang Chengen shouted and hurriedly chased after him.

Seeing this scene, the little eunuchs and maids in the warm pavilion also understood what happened.

Chaos unfolded in the Nuan Pavilion. These little eunuchs and court ladies who had behaved in front of Chongzhen acted like lunatics, robbing all kinds of things in the Nuan Pavilion.

In order to snatch things, they even did not hesitate to fight each other.

Some young eunuchs or court ladies who couldn't grab others rushed out of the warm pavilion and rushed towards the vicinity, and the money for the goods began to spread in the palace.

Because Chongzhen has been reducing the number of eunuchs and maids in the palace, there are many places in the palace where the snow has not been cleared.

Chongzhen ran in the snow with a sword in his right hand.

The snow was deep and the road was slippery, and Chongzhen fell to the ground from time to time.

"Haha, Daming is dead, and Daming is dead. Daming is actually dead in my hands. I am a sinner, and Zhu Youjian is a sinner!"

Chongzhen stopped suddenly, he looked towards the sky, and shouted hoarsely.

He took off the Yishan crown on his head, threw it on the ground, and stepped on it fiercely.

Because of too much force, even the headband was ripped off by Chongzhen.

The hair spread out all of a sudden, and fell on Chongzhen's shoulders.

Snowflakes stained Chongzhen's hair, and soon dyed Chongzhen's hair white.

"Da Ming is dead, Daming is dead!"

While running towards the harem, Chongzhen kept shouting like a madman.

Wang Chengen chased after him, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up with Chongzhen.

Chongzhen threw the yellow robe on the ground, leaving only the middle coat with patches on his body.

Chongzhen's hysterical shouts resounded continuously in the palace.

The eunuchs and ladies in the palace began to release their long suppressed thoughts.

Chaos intensified in the palace.

Wang Chengen grabbed a young eunuch who was about to pass by him, and threatened with a ferocious expression: "Our family tells you that there are now two thousand elite soldiers outside the palace. You go out with our family's seal and let the elite soldiers from outside come in." Protect Your Majesty.

If you complete the tasks our family entrusts to you, then our family will reward you a lot, and our family's seal will also reward you.

But if you don't do what our family says, the elite soldiers outside the palace won't let you go.When the time comes, you just wait to die.

Don't look at these people in the palace who are robbing finances and wanton.But our family tells you that once the elite soldiers from outside the palace come in, these people will all die, and none of them will survive! "

As he spoke, Wang Chengen took out a jade chapter from his bosom and handed it to the little eunuch.

Wang Chengen's words and expression frightened the little eunuch, so he had no choice but to obey Wu Chengen's order.

This little eunuch had just entered the palace not long ago and was ignorant of worldly affairs, so he was intimidated by Wang Chengen.
