    After announcing that it was getting dark, Li Chen brought fifty brothers to Hu Maozhen's house. With Hu Maozhen's business card as cover, these people could almost roam around Beijing, let alone safely transfer their belongings to Hu Maozhen's house.  The mansion is over.

    Released When Hu Maozhen was worrying about how to help Li Chengdong open the city gate, Li Chen came to Hu Maozhen with a smile, "Sir, shoot people and horses, capture thieves and capture kings. I hope you can get us into the palace and take the king. I hope you can get us into the palace."  If Shunzhi and others live here, everything will be settled."

    Hu Maozhen shook his head, "No, no, the Forbidden Palace is heavily guarded. Even if you enter, it is unlikely to be effective. The imperial guards around Shunzhi are all good at fighting. It is difficult to deal with them. We should look for opportunities to help Li Chengdong break the city.  !¡±

    Posted by Li Chen, he was very confident in his people, "My lord, the war opportunity is fleeting. Once the Tatar reinforcements return to Beijing, the pressure on Li Chengdong's troops will be huge, even if the emperor can take advantage of the situation to annihilate the Tatars in Hebei."  , we can¡¯t save the people in the outer city, so it¡¯s better to do this. Tonight, your Excellency will be responsible for guiding us. We are divided into two groups. One group will find a way to open the city gate, and the other group will go to the Forbidden Palace. This is a two-pronged approach, whichever side is more powerful.  It¡¯s all good.¡±

    Release Hu Maozhen felt that what Li Chen said was not unreasonable. He immediately called Hu Yan and asked Hu Yan to introduce the geography of Beijing to Li Chen. He also told Li Chen about the situation in the Forbidden City in detail.

    Published Hu Maozhen is a very busy man now, and he is just talking!  Shunzhi sent another eunuch to announce that he had entered the palace to discuss matters. When Li Chen found out, he immediately called a follower, "Sir, let him change his clothes and go with you! If necessary, you can also protect your safety."

    Hu Maozhen frowned and said, "He can't enter the Forbidden Palace! It's okay, let him wait outside, and I'll feel more relaxed. Nonsense, I'll leave the family affairs to General Li and you. Don't go out."  Any mistakes.¡±

    After Hu Maozhen left, Li Chen and Hu Yan conspired for a long time, and finally decided to give half of Li Chen's troops to Hu Yan's command, and let Hu Yan cooperate with Qi Yu outside the city to find opportunities to open the city gate, while Li Chen mainly  Responsible for matters in the Forbidden City, I hope to hit the key points of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and control many leaders of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

    It's a new day, but the people in Beijing are still on tenterhooks. Listening to the rumbling cannons and shouts of killing outside, the older people think of the battle between Yuan Chonghuan and the Qing soldiers, Li Zicheng's battle with the Ming army, etc.  During the past wars, people prayed to God from time to time, hoping for a few days of peace.

    Released After Hong Chengchou was in charge of the inner city of Beijing, the defense became stronger, making the Ming army's attack much more difficult.  Li Chengdong's eyes were red. He really hoped that the cannon would blast open the city gate in one go, but when he thought about the fierce battle that would happen after the city was broken, Li Chengdong couldn't help but think about the men and horses in his hands. After a day and night of fierce fighting, what soldiers could the Ming army have?  With less than four thousand, even if the city is now broken, can they be a match for the Qing army?  I'm afraid there will be many casualties in the street fighting!

    With the sound of cannons rumbling, Qi Yu came to Li Chengdong with a happy face, "General Li, I have contacted the brothers in the city. They said they will help us break open the city gate at night. I think we should attack the city with artillery now."  For the sake of the Lord, preserve our strength and fight the Tatars in the streets.¡±

    Qi Yu said that he had a stronghold in the city, but Li Chengdong didn't take it seriously. At this time, the two sides were fighting fiercely. Not to mention Qi Yu's thirty or fifty people, even three heads and five hundred people couldn't do anything. Ordinary people simply couldn't  It was impossible to get close to the city gate.

    Posting Qi Yu did not get Hu Maozhen's permission and did not dare to tell Li Chengdong Hu Maozhen's identity. He saw that Li Chengdong was not very interested, "General, no matter what, this is a way. Anyway, the current attack is not making much progress, so let's try it.  ! Maybe it will work!¡±

    "Okay! Fortunately, we have enough ammunition, let's focus on bombarding the city gate first." Li Chengdong was also afraid of losing his troops at this time. If he really opened the city gate and was defeated in a street battle, he would be too unlucky.

    Published The sky dimmed little by little until it was close to the third watch.  Li Chen looked at the heavily armed men and horses. When they left Dingzhou, these people were received by Emperor Hongguang. They came to Beijing with the determination to die, and now they were about to carry out their respective missions. "In a quarter of an hour,  Check your weapons inside."

    The equipment of these members of the special forces and death squads is "modern". Each person has a blunderbuss that can be fired twice, a set of fire tools, a set of climbing tools, fifty poison arrows, and  Twenty poisonous darts, one short bow and one short sword each.  The weapons coated with poison are deadly weapons. As long as the skin is scratched, there is no possibility of life. Therefore, when inspecting the weapons, these people were very careful wearing gloves for fear of being injured.Die by your own weapons.

    Release Li Chen assigned twenty-five people to Hu Yan, "I'll leave the city gate to you. You can set off after I leave for half an hour. After all, the Forbidden City is the key point."

    Posting Hu Yan nodded, "I understand, I hope you can succeed in one fell swoop." Hu Yan watched Li Chen and others disappear into the night. He looked at the moonless night sky and said to himself that God really gave him face. If there was a moon on his head,  It¡¯s really troublesome!

    Release Li Chen and others left Hu Maozhen's home and went straight to the Imperial City according to the location mentioned by Hu Yan. When they arrived outside the Imperial City, Li Chen easily found the suicide squad members who had left with Hu Maozhen.

    "Boss, it's not difficult to enter the Imperial City, but it's much more difficult to enter the Forbidden City. The Tatars patrol very tightly, and they come every half a cup of tea." The previous team members were not idle, and reported the surrounding situation.  The touch is very accurate.

    Release Li Chen nodded, "I'm not afraid of the outside. The main thing is to enter the Forbidden City. I heard Mr. Hu say that the Tatar emperor has been discussing matters in the Qianqing Palace recently. Let's find the Qianqing Palace first. Follow me."

    Posted by Li Chen and more than 20 people climbed into the Forbidden City from the low wall next to the corner tower of the north gate of the imperial city. Using his memory, he dodged the patrolling Qing soldiers and touched the Imperial Garden. Li Chen remembered that after leaving the front door of the Imperial Garden  It's Kunning Gate, then Kunning Palace, and then past Jiaotai Hall is Shunzhi's palace, Qianqing Palace. This road seems to be very close, but in fact it's not close. Besides, the intervals between patrolling Qing soldiers are very short. If you want to avoid being caught,  I found it too difficult to sneak to Qianqing Palace.

    After several detours and nearly an hour, Li Chen and others arrived at a place not too far from the Qianqing Palace. After getting here, they tried to sneak in, but there was no way. The Manchus were forbidden to do so.  The palace guards didn't leave any space at all.

    When Li Chen saw the situation, he knew he had to divide his troops. He called five people, "You sneak in to the west, go to Cining Palace where Shunzhi's mother is, and then set a fire. It is best to attract the attention of the Tatars."  If you don't have enough strength, go and assassinate the Tatar Queen Mother." After Li Chen told them the geography in detail, he watched the five people leave and began to wait. It was already past the third watch, and it would be the fourth after a little delay.  Moreover, it was not far from dawn, so Li Chen was very anxious to wait.

    As soon as the fourth update day arrived, a fire finally broke out in the direction of Cining Palace. Half of the guards around Qianqing Palace were evacuated at once. Because Shunzhi received a report that there was a fire in Cining Palace, he was very concerned about his mother's safety, so Dayu'er left Qianqing Palace.  It didn't take long for the Qing Palace to be established, and it must be said that Li Chen was lucky, otherwise Shunzhi would never have withdrawn half of his guards to protect Dayu'er and put out the fire.

    Posted When Hu Maozhen heard about the fire in Cining Palace, he felt a sudden shock in his heart. He thought to himself that it was Li Chen who did it. He looked at Shunzhi, who was frowning, and couldn't help but feel a little sad. Shunzhi was not bad to him. He has not been without feelings for several years.  But he, Hu Maozhen, is a minister of the Ming Dynasty after all. All this has been doomed long ago and cannot be changed!

    "The artillery fire of the Ming army was very fierce, but fortunately the city walls and gates were very strong. Zhuo Butai's reinforcements should have arrived in Zhuozhou." Shunzhi calculated the schedule of the reinforcements, "In one day's time, Zhuo Butai will definitely arrive.  Outside the city, if the siege is successfully rescued, there will definitely be enough time to rearrange how to deal with the Ming army attacking from Dingzhou."

    Xia Daishan responded, "Your Majesty hastily mobilized Shanxi's troops to attack Juyongguan. In this way, although the time is short, the subsequent defense burden will be even more arduous. Our army will be surrounded by the Ming army, and there will be no outside."  There is no room for maneuver in the reinforcements, so the old minister hopes that after Shanxi's soldiers and horses retake Juyong Pass, they will not return to aid Beijing. They should ensure smooth communication from Beijing to Xuanhua. Looking at the Ming army's deployment of troops, they will definitely capture Beijing.  If there is an emergency, the emperor can withdraw from Xuanhua and fight back to the pass."

    Published Other Manchu adults also echoed Daishan¡¯s proposal. Although the Ming army occupied their home base, the Eight Banners disciples were very familiar with the territory outside the pass. It would be easy for the Ming army to regain the territory outside the pass while the Ming army¡¯s foothold was not stable.

    Released Shunzhi felt very unhappy when he saw the ministers who were clamoring to return to the pass.  Hu Maozhen looked at Shunzhi who looked unhappy and thought about the situation outside Qianqing Palace. He nodded to Hou Fangyu beside him and said, "Chaozong, I'm in a hurry. Let's go out first."

    Posting that Hou Fangyu had stayed up late these past few days and his expression was not good, "Well!" After Hou Fangyu signaled to Hu Maozhen, he looked at the arguing Manchu princes and ministers, and was very dissatisfied with this meeting of princes and ministers discussing politics, although he had Shunzhi's consent to participate.  In this meeting, his opinions were not listened to by these Manchu princes at all. These people were so domineering that they even had the power to remove the emperor. When this difficulty is overcome, the emperor must find a way to bypass this system of kings and ministers who discuss politics.  .

    Published Hu Maozhen was seen by Li Chen and others when he left Qianqing Palace. After sending someone to catch Hu Maozhen who was really anxious, Li ChenGritting his teeth, "Sir, get rid of all the guards in front of you! You don't need to continue acting at this time."

    Release Hu Maozhen saw that Li Chen and others had really arrived outside the Qianqing Palace. He looked at Xing Dou and said, "Okay! I'll go right away. You guys hurry up." Hu Maozhen said and turned around and returned to the door of the Qianqing Palace. "Here, then.  There is something suspicious around here, you all should go and have a look."

    Released Hu Maozhen is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the Minister of Internal Affairs. How can these guards not listen to what he said? While the guards were running away from the Qianqing Palace, Li Chen and others entered the Qianqing Palace like lightning.
