The Chinese Army searched the palace, but did not see the body of emperor Chongzhen, which made them very sad.
Zhou Hui of the Huaxia Military Intelligence Bureau presided over this work. When Zhou Hui was about to implement the blacklist eradication plan in the inner city, he began to extend his power to the palace.
He is also implementing the plan issued by Liu Bu, that is, slowly increasing the pressure. Their wishful thinking is to constantly pressurize and finally make the emperor commit suicide.
In any case, they are not allowed to have the emperor's blood on their weapons.
As long as their weapons are not stained with the emperor's blood, they can't wear the hat of killing their Lord.
However, they did well in their calculation and broke through the palace, but they didn't see the emperor's body, which made Zhou Hui and them panic.
They think that the emperor is a man of backbone and will not escape. What if the emperor is not? If he ran out like emperor Jianwen, there would be endless trouble.
Although in the official history of the Ming Dynasty, it has been confirmed that emperor Jianwen died in the Jingnan battle and in the fire in the imperial palace.
But almost everyone with a brain knows that emperor Jianwen should not be dead, but escaped. It is because emperor Jianwen escaped that Zhu Di was restless, established the East factory and Zheng He's seven voyages to the West.
Zhou Hui was thinking that if emperor Chongzhen escaped and so many things were tossed about, he, the director of national security, would be a failure.
So he ordered the soldiers to torture some palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, search everywhere, try to find out whether there was a secret way and pursue the whereabouts of the emperor.
Zhou Hui can imagine that if he told Liu Bu and Liu Yuanqiao such news, he didn't know how angry they would be. He was afraid that he would cut off his head on the spot.
Zhou Hui had no choice but to ask several other high-level generals in the army for help, asking them to send more people to search inside and outside, and step up the investigation of people in and out.
If emperor Chongzhen escaped, they would have to eat and die.
Now Zhou Hui has begun to complain about Liu Bu's strategy. If Liu Bu doesn't have to adopt the strategy of pressing step by step and forcing the emperor to commit suicide, he adopts the strategy commonly used by the Chinese army, that is, artillery bombardment, infantry rush, and it is their elite elite elite troops that take the lead.
First of all, send the elite troops to make a surprise attack on the imperial palace. First capture the emperor and members of the royal family alive. Then, even if they can't be captured alive, kill them first, and then push them to others.
But their strategy of moving forward slowly and forcing others to commit suicide alive, what if others don't obey and fight to the death? The consequences are serious.
Zhou Hui knew that this matter was very important. Almost every other hour, he had to report the latest military information to Liu bu. He also knew that it would not take long to report to Liu bu. At present, the body of emperor Chongzhen has not been found.
In this regard, Liu Bu did not get angry as Zhou Hui imagined, but ordered them to invest more troops and expand the scope of the search. He could consider searching the imperial garden, coal hill and so on.
Zhou Hui was relieved when he saw that Liu Bu didn't get angry and didn't twist his head off and kick the pot that night. He immediately ordered more troops to expand the scope of the search according to Liu Bu's instructions. They came from house to house, tree to tree and well to check again and again. They must not miss any place.
They all know that this matter is extremely serious. If there is no satisfactory result, it will be very angry.
At this time, the soldiers had a reward, that is, they found the body of emperor Chongzhen here in the coal mountain.
Hearing that the emperor's body had been found, Zhou Hui was very happy and immediately led his cronies to the coal mountain. They found the body of emperor Chongzhen hanging on the tree here, a crooked neck tree in the coal mountain.
He was dressed in a white robe and hung on a tree. His hair was scattered, covering his face and moving with the wind. On a Begonia tree opposite the crooked neck tree, the eunuch Wang Chengen in a big red robe was hanging with him.
Zhou Hui didn't dare any neglect. He was also afraid that this was the plan of a suspicious soldier. He immediately ordered people to put them down and let people confirm whether they were the Lord.
Zhou Hui also caught a large group of palace maids and eunuchs around emperor Chongzhen, who took care of these people respectively to prevent them from colluding in confessions.
Now let these people identify at the scene. When they saw the body of emperor Chongzhen, they cried in panic and fear. They knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly and cried loudly, "emperor! Emperor!"
Seeing these people, so excited and so sad and angry, he knew that this should be the body of emperor Chongzhen. Finally, he found the other party's body and committed suicide. He was relieved that the war in the capital had a perfect ending as soon as the Lord died, and the new dynasty would be much more peaceful.
At this time, a piece of cloth was presented on the left and right. It was said to be the last letter of emperor Chongzhen. Zhou Hui took it over and had a look.
This is not the official will, but the imperial edict written by Chongzhen on his skirt after biting his finger: "I despised Liang De's bow and made heaven's blame, which led to the rebels pressing towards the capital. All officials mistook me. When I die, I have no face to see my ancestors. I go to the crown to cover my face, let the thieves split, and do no harm to the people."
Zhou Hui took this piece of paper. Zhou Hui couldn't help laughing. He let the thief split the body and didn't hurt the people. Did the emperor really think so?
Zhou Hui is an officer and soldier of Liao town. He has been working in Liao town for generations. If the imperial court is not incompetent and loses Liaodong, I'm afraid he will always do so.
After the Liao town was lost, he was exiled in the pass. He was the only one left in the huge Gaizhou Wei Zhou family. So many relatives and friends died. As a Liao people who was exiled in the pass, he knew how miserable it was. A living human life was worse than a dog.
At that time, he was full of hatred and despair for the imperial court. He was thinking that if the imperial court did anything, they would not lose Liao Town, make them displaced and become bereaved dogs.
Even if the imperial court did something and sent some officials to provide relief and comfort to them, they would not make these Liaodong refugees have nothing to support and no burial place in the pass.
Now the emperor is talking about high-profile, without hurting one of our people, the court is corrupt and incompetent, officials fish and meat the people, and the people all over the world, why should everyone oppose?
If it were not for the people all over the world, why would the Ming soldiers be rubbish? As soon as the Chinese army arrived, these troops would fear the enemy like a tiger and flee at the sight of the wind.
Yanjing city is a huge city with a complete military defense system. If it falls into the hands of the Chinese army, not to mention so many soldiers, as long as there are more than 10000 soldiers, it can be guarded like an iron wall.
Just like after the change of the civil castle, the three major battalions and the twelve guards in the capital were destroyed, but with some temporarily recruited soldiers, they were able to hold the capital and beat back the enemy's attack. This is because the people are still here. The people are constantly striving for self-improvement and unwilling to be killed. They bravely joined the army and beat back the enemy.
Now the emperor said in a high-profile way: what have you done without hurting my people? If the emperor could really practice it and let the officials treat the people well, even natural and man-made disasters would not destroy Daming to such a tragic extent.
A generation of emperor Chongzhen died here. Emperor Chongzhen was also the Emperor Zhou Hui had sworn allegiance to. He couldn't help sighing when he saw such an end.
Guan Ningjun, the father and son of Wu Xiang, was responsible for searching and arresting the area around Meishan. As the main force of the Ming army, they defended the front line in western Liaoning. These generals were also deeply rewarded by the imperial court. They saw that emperor Chongzhen finally ended up hanging himself. Everyone was full of regret.
They were supposed to command the search at the foot of the mountain. They were supposed to plan to come up. When they heard that the emperor died here, they really didn't need to come. They simply stationed directly at the foot of the mountain. When they heard that the emperor died, they couldn't help but sigh and feel sad.
As soon as emperor Chongzhen died, it was a real death for Daming.
The Ming Dynasty rose in huaisi since the Taizu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, Jian Ping the heroes of the Central Plains, defeated the Mongols, expelled the tartar prisoners and restored China. It lasted 270 years since the 16th emperor and ended in the 11th year of Chongzhen.
Originally, there were still battles in the capital, and the Chinese Army eradicated some stubborn elements.
However, when the news of emperor Chongzhen hanging on the coal mountain spread, like a level 10 typhoon sweeping the whole city, everyone was shocked and all the fighting stopped at this moment.
In the eyes of the resisters, Emperor Chongzhen died and Daming perished. What is the significance of resistance?
Now the Chinese army also began to think that the emperor died and Daming perished. What's the use of fighting hard? It's better to submit to the new dynasty and submit to the system of the new dynasty.
In a word, when the news of emperor Chongzhen's death was confirmed and spread, all the people were shocked and all the fighting stopped.
This means the end of an era.
Liu Bu, who coordinated troops and commanded the battle on the Zhengyang tower, was also very nervous. One day, Emperor Chongzhen was still there, and Daming was still resisting. A hundred footed insects died without stiffness.
But in this way, Daming still has resistance because there is still the emperor and the last hope. When Emperor Chongzhen decided to commit suicide and return to heaven, there was no hope and energy, which was very good for the Chinese Empire to surrender other parts of Daming.
At present, there are still many places in Daming that still swear allegiance to Daming and are still not occupied by the Chinese army. Under the leadership of local officials and giants, holding the banner of Daming, they continue to resist the invasion of the Chinese army. The most famous places are Zhu Xieyuan in Henan, Mu family in Yunnan, Guangdong, Guangdong, Guizhou, Shaanxi and other places. However, when the news of the emperor's death spread, They will give up resistance.
