    ¡¶¡· 531 Heavy Machine Gun (Second Update)

    Chongzhen only felt one thing at this time, and that was anger and hesitation.  He now doesn't know what he should do to change this chaotic and extremely unfavorable situation.

    Normally, when he was sitting in the main hall, he felt like the world was all in my hands. However, in this situation, he realized that he had never truly controlled the world, and he was unable to control it.

    "Seeing how a few thousand soldiers of the Chinese Empire could enter the Forbidden City as if there were no one around, you know how much he failed as the Ming Emperor.

    The palace was in chaos, with most of the eunuchs and maids running around like headless flies.

    However, amidst this chaos, a small group went against the current and rushed towards Qianqing Palace.  The core of this small group is Zhang Yan, the queen of Emperor Tianqi.

    Since Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, Zhang Yan has not interfered with Chongzhen too much. After all, she is only a queen, and she is also a former queen, so she still has some taboos.

    But with this matter today, Zhang Yan no longer cares about this taboo.  After learning that the armies of the Chinese Empire had already reached the Forbidden City, Zhang Yan immediately rushed to Chongzhen with several eunuchs and maids in her palace.

    She didn¡¯t know what she should do, but deep down in her heart she stubbornly believed that the Ming Dynasty would not die, at least not because of these thousands of people.  As the queen of the Ming Dynasty, what does he need to do!

    When he arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Chongzhen was killing people, killing those little eunuchs and maids he didn't like.  He wanted to use this method to vent his anger and at the same time relieve the hesitation in his heart.

    When the killings began, Chongzhen even asked Wang Chengen to call his queens, concubines, princes and princesses to be killed, but his crazy behavior was stopped by Zhang Yan.

    "Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty is not dead yet. Don't say that there are only two or three thousand people who attacked Bauhinia City this time. Even if there were twenty or thirty thousand people, Your Majesty should not do this."

    Zhang Yan's words made Chongzhen calm down slightly, but the sadness in his heart surged uncontrollably.

    Chongzhen decided that he was really sad. He had a depressed childhood, a frightened youth, and finally became the emperor. He worked hard to pull the Ming Dynasty out of the abyss of chaos, but the obstacles of the ministers forced him to use him again.  The most hated eunuch before becoming emperor.

    However, the hard work over the past few years has not only failed to improve the situation of the Ming Dynasty, but has fallen on the edge of national subjugation due to the emergence of the Chinese Empire.

    These things came to mind in an instant, and Chongzhen could no longer suppress the sadness in his heart, and cried loudly.

    As an emperor, Chongzhen would only show such emotions in front of his mother-like sister-in-law. This is the sadness of an emperor.

    "Your Majesty, what you should do now is to immediately gather troops and horses, leave the Forbidden City and go to the outer city to lead three battalions to destroy these enemy troops!"

    "Compared to Emperor Chongzhen, who was just twenty-three years old and had only been free as emperor for four short years, Zhang Yan was more calm.

    Three thousand people, no matter how powerful he is, cannot surround the entire Forbidden City in an instant, so the most important thing now is to leave the Forbidden City. There are hundreds of thousands of troops outside. As soon as the emperor arrives, he will be able to attack regardless of everything.  Attacking the palace, at that time, these three thousand people were not turtles in the jar.

    On the contrary, once the emperor is controlled by them, everything will be very passive. Even if other members of the royal family escape, it will not help.

    "Yes, yes! Let's go now! Daban, have someone take the queen and the others out of the palace immediately."

    It was only at this time that Chongzhen reacted and immediately asked Wang Chengen to take his troops to escort the queen and others out of the palace.

    ¡°Your Majesty, I don¡¯t think you need to go anywhere.¡±

    At this moment, a very familiar voice to Chongzhen suddenly came in.  After taking a closer look, it turned out to be Fu Fanxing.

    When Fu Fanxing said this, forty people dressed in royal robes suddenly rushed in, eyeing the people in Qianqing Palace with eager eyes.

    "Fu Fanxing, do you want to rebel?"

    Seeing this formation, Chongzhen immediately roared angrily.

    "Your Majesty, the word rebellion is not very appropriate to use on me. In fact, I was the internal agent arranged by the Chinese Empire in the Ming Dynasty from the beginning. So Your Majesty, everything I did today cannot be regarded as rebellion."

    Fu Fanxing looked at Chongzhen calmly and said.

    In order to prevent Emperor Chongzhen from escaping from the Forbidden City,Yuan Yun not only hired Zhou Chen, but also Fu Fanxing.

    After the plan started, Fu Fanxing led two hundred soldiers from the reconnaissance company wearing royal uniforms into the palace on the pretext of protecting the emperor.

    There were no obstacles along the way, straight into the Qianqing Palace.  After arriving at the Qianqing Palace, the soldiers of the reconnaissance company quickly eliminated the guards near the Qianqing Palace and assigned 60 people to serve as guards. The others followed Fu Fanxing into the Qianqing Palace.  Emperor Chongzhen was completely blocked in the Qianqing Palace.

    Hearing what Fu Fanxing said, Zhang Yan felt dizzy. She did not expect that Fu Fanxing, who had served as a royal guard during the Wanli period, was sent by Xiao Mingqian.

    If this is really the case, then are there other Ming officials like Fu Fanxing?

    "He's really ambitious. When he was still occupying a small island of Taiwan, Thief Xiao started plotting against me, the Ming Dynasty."

    Zhang Yan felt extremely incredible at this time.  A person who was just a kid back then actually laid out such deep chess pieces when he just took control of a wild island.  Such scheming is really scary.

    "Fu Fanxing, I, the Ming Dynasty, have always treated you well, and the emperor regards you as a close confidant. Could it be that the kindness I have received over the past ten years is not as good as what Xiao Thief has given you?"

    Zhang Yan yelled at Fu Fanxing angrily. She hoped that Fu Fanxing would let Chongzhen go out of consideration for the kindness they had received for more than ten years.

    But what he didn¡¯t know was that even if Fu Fanxing agreed, Chongzhen would not be able to leave the Qianqing Palace, because the hundreds of people brought by Fu Fanxing would not accept such an order from Fu Fanxing.

    "Enyu! Haha, that's true, but Queen Zhang, I have to remind you that my position is the Commander of the Royal Guards. I have seen too many dark things about the Ming Dynasty royal family, so that I have no regard for the Ming royal family.  Feeling extremely suspicious of any favors.

    What¡¯s more, you simply don¡¯t understand the power and wealth of the Chinese Empire, let alone my feelings for the Chinese Empire.  If His Majesty the Emperor hadn't rescued our family back then, I, my parents, and two younger sisters would have been forced to death by the family of that star.

    do you know?  Some of the evidence obtained by the Wei party was provided to them by me, including the evidence of the crimes of ** Xing, Zuo Guangdou, Yang Lian and their families. I gave them the evidence. How about that? I'm very angry!

    Hahaha!  In my opinion, the Ming Dynasty should have perished long ago.  Only under the rule of His Majesty the Emperor of the Chinese Empire can ordinary people in this world have a way to survive.  "

    Fu Fanxing, who had completely vented the hatred in his heart, acted a little nervous. His ferocious expression looked like an evil ghost who came to collect debts.

    Hearing what Fu Fanxing said and seeing the soldiers of the reconnaissance company eyeing him eagerly, Zhang Yan felt despair in her heart.  She knew that everything was over. With Fu Fanxing acting as an internal agent, it was impossible for all members of the royal family to escape from the Forbidden City. In other words, even if the Ming Dynasty survived, the only way for the ministers to support other princes was to continue the Ming Dynasty.

    Thinking of this, Zhang Yan was so heartbroken that she hit the pillar and died on it.  Unfortunately, she lost all this power.

    Two soldiers stopped her directly, tied her up together with Chongzhen who had been yelling and scolding, and threw her aside.

    The battle in the Forbidden City was without any suspense. Within half an hour, the soldiers quickly took control of the entire Bauhinia City.  Taking the captured royal members with them, the soldiers all shrank into the courtyard where Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace were located, and organized defense.

    A simple fortification was deployed at Qianqing Gate, Yuehua Gate, Guangyuan Gate and Rijing Gate, and five heavy machine guns were deployed respectively.

    That¡¯s right, it¡¯s a heavy machine gun, and it¡¯s the famous Maxim heavy machine gun.  Of course, it is not called this name here, but the Type 52 heavy machine gun. This powerful weapon was finally produced at the end of 1852.  Although the output was not very high and the failure rate was not low at the beginning, after a year of continuous improvement, the demand was finally met within a month after the outbreak of the Unification War.

    So far, there are only 60 heavy machine guns of this kind in the entire Chinese Empire. For this operation, 20 were shipped in order to make this operation foolproof.

    Of course, it was impossible to hide the movements in the Forbidden City from the ministers, but the soldiers' actions were too fast. By the time the ministers reacted, the battle in the Forbidden City was basically over.

    In the face of such carefully planned actions, the efficiency of the Ming Dynasty's military system seemed so slow.  It was nearly twenty minutes after the soldiers completed their defense that the first batch of troops appeared in front of them.

    This army is also part of the Forbidden Army, but it is not in office.  matterWhen it happened, they were all still sleeping in the military camp.

    By the time the commander of the Forbidden Army woke up from the Sixth Concubine's bed and ran to the camp to assemble the army, the battle in the Forbidden City was already over.

    However, this army still had some combat effectiveness. When they felt that they were clearing the gate, they, led by the commander of the Forbidden Army, launched a crazy charge towards the soldiers' defensive positions.

    But under the barrage of the Type 52 heavy machine gun, which was demonstrating its power for the first time in the world, their charge was destined to be a tragic charge.

    More than two thousand people, all turned into corpses in less than seven minutes under the fire of five heavy aircraft, without exception.
