Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 12 Chapter 12, The Dashun Army's Offensive Frustrated, My Prince Ming is Mighty
Liu Zongmin's death was completely unexpected by all the Dashun Army soldiers around him.

But the guards around Liu Zongmin reacted very quickly and immediately surrounded him.

"General, General!"

Liu Zongmin's body was motionless.

Soon, someone finally recognized the reality and let out a cry.

"General Liu is dead!"

This shout instantly broke the mentality of all the soldiers of the Dashun Army nearby.

They started to get scared and backed away subconsciously.

Liu Zongmin, the number one general under King Chuang, died so suddenly.

If anyone continues to stay here, will they also be killed by the Ming army?

Retreat, retreat quickly!

On the city wall, Zhu Cihong let out a sigh of satisfaction.

Through the scope, he clearly saw the process of Liu Zongmin being shot and falling from his horse, and knew that the other party was certain to die.

Of course, Zhu Cixiang also heard the shouts from Cao Huachun behind him.

So Zhu Cixiang put away his sniper rifle, turned around, and stared at Cao Huachun: "Eunuch Cao, what do you want to do?"

When Cao Huachun was stared at by Zhu Cihong, an extremely dangerous feeling suddenly emerged in his heart.

At this moment, Cao Huachun felt that he seemed to be being targeted by an ancient beast that could choose someone to devour at any time!
Not only Cao Huachun, but even several of Cao Huachun's confidants were overwhelmed by Zhu Cihong's aura and dared not go forward for a while.

At this moment, Wang Chengen next to him suddenly burst into cheers.

"Look, the enemy's main general was killed by the prince, and they have already started to retreat!"

Cao Huachun and Zhu Cixiang were attracted by these words at the same time, and turned to look down the city.

Indeed, after discovering that Liu Zongmin was killed in battle, the vanguard of the Chuangjun immediately suffered a great morale setback.

As the saying goes, a soldier will be brave!

It is not an exaggeration to say that the role of a general in a war is the key to victory or defeat.

In many battles, it was clear that the main general had the upper hand, but the main general was suddenly killed by cold arrows, and then directly turned from victory to defeat.

As the number one general of the Chuang army, Liu Zongmin's reputation in the Chuang army can be said to be in the sky, and even Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, has three points of scruples.

Now that he is dead, the morale of the vanguard of the invading army has naturally plummeted in an instant. They no longer want to fight and start to retreat one after another.

Cao Huachun's eyes widened, he was dumbfounded.

At this moment, Cao Huachun came back to his senses and knew exactly where Zhu Cihong's shot had just been.

"Prince, you actually shot Liu Zongmin to death?" Cao Huachun's heart was filled with turmoil.

Seeing the Dashun army retreating like a tide, the city wall resounded with loud cheers.

"Liu Zongmin is dead!"

"The thieves have retreated!"

"We held it!"

Everyone was very happy and celebrated wildly.

For these officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, they had heard too much news about the fall of the Ming Dynasty city and the massacre by the invaders in recent days. Even not long ago, they themselves did not feel that they could hold this city wall.

But it turned out that it held up!
The Dashun Army, which swept across the entire Central Plains and Hebei, finally suffered a major setback under the walls of Beijing and lost its number one general Liu Zongmin!
Slowly, everyone's eyes focused on Zhu Cihong.

Everyone is not a fool. They all know the reason for the sudden reversal of the situation.

It was this young prince who arrived at the most dangerous time. He first used artillery to defeat the first wave of offensive by the vanguard of the Breaking Army, and then killed Liu Zongmin, the general of the Breaking Army. This helped the officers and soldiers gain this defensive victory. city ​​victory.

Suddenly, a soldier waved his arms and shouted.

"The prince is mighty, the Ming Dynasty is mighty!"

The next moment, everyone shouted in unison.

"The prince is mighty, the Ming Dynasty is mighty!"

The shouts resounded through the sky, deafening.

Cao Huachun listened to such shouts and felt the burning gazes of countless soldiers on the city wall. He wanted to continue to let his subordinates take Zhu Cixi away, but how could he dare to say this?
Zhu Cihong suddenly took two steps forward, came to Cao Huachun, smiled and said: "Eunuch Cao, what did you want to do just now, speak louder, I didn't hear you!"

Cao Huachun was trembling, subconsciously took two steps back, staggered and almost fell.

"Prince, misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding! The prince is mighty, and this old servant admires, admires!"

Seeing Cao Huachun's embarrassed appearance, Zhu Cihong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At this moment, the system voice sounded in Zhu Cixiang's mind: "Congratulations to the host for killing Li Zicheng's number one general Liu Zongmin and repelling the attack of the invaders. Since the host overfulfilled the task, the host's artillery operation skills were upgraded to S level.

Now that the battle at Changhua Gate has temporarily stopped, the host is requested to rush back to Fengtian Hall as soon as possible to start the next check-in task. "

After hearing what the system said, Zhu Cixi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from this situation, at least today, Changhuamen is completely guarded.

As for what happens next...

At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly came to the city wall.

"His Royal Highness, Your Majesty has an order, please return to Fengtian Palace as soon as possible!"

Zhu Cihong smiled, this is really sleepy and meeting the pillow, Ben Gong just wanted to go back.

But, you can't just go back like this.

Zhu Cixiang suddenly took out his pistol and fired several shots.

Every shot hit the ground around Cao Huachun, spraying a small amount of smoke and dust, making Cao Huachun scream in fright.

"Prince, I know I was wrong. If you have anything to say, please speak it out. Spare my life!"

Several of Cao Huachun's subordinates looked at each other in blank dismay, intending to step forward, but they were afraid of being shot, so they hesitated and hesitated, but they still didn't dare to move.

You know, hundreds of pairs of eyes on the city wall are all staring at them!
Zhu Cilang said with a smile: "Eunuch Cao, I'm going back to my father now, so you should guard this palace well, you know? If something happens here, you, Eunuch Cao, will inevitably be with you too." Then Liu Zongmin is the same, eat the taste of this bullet!"

If it was in normal times, it is certainly not impossible for Zhu Cihong to consider some political tricks and the like, but at this critical juncture, it is better to just show the muzzle of the gun!

After saying this, Zhu Cixiang waved his hand towards Wang Chengen who was not far away: "What are you waiting for? Come back to the palace with me!"

Wang Chengen looked at this scene with a complicated expression.

According to common sense, Cao Huachun is Wang Chengen's adoptive father in the palace, and Wang Chengen's success today is inseparable from Cao Huachun's support.

However, as the crown prince, Zhu Cihong is Wang Chengen's real master!
What's more, there is a huge gap between what Zhu Cihong and Cao Huachun did today.

Zhu Cihong was saving Daming from danger, while Cao Huachun did nothing but hold back.

After thinking about it, Wang Chengen also had an idea in his mind, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, slow down, the old slave is here!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Chengen followed Zhu Cihong away in a flash. As for the adoptive father Cao Huachun who collapsed on the ground, he didn't even look at him!
Outside the city, Li Zicheng was furious.

"Why did Liu Zongmin, that bastard, lead the entire army to retreat without my order? Damn it, does he think he doesn't need to listen to my words? Can Dashun get better?"

Just as Li Zicheng was cursing, a general of the invading army rode up on his horse as if he were mourning for his heir. Then he rolled off his saddle and fell off his horse, rolling and crawling in front of Li Zicheng.

"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. Mr. Liu Zongmin, the left governor, was killed by the army!"

Li Zicheng froze as if struck by lightning.

After several seconds, Li Zicheng came back to his senses and roared angrily: "This is impossible, it's just nonsense!"

Li Zicheng couldn't believe it.

For many years, Liu Zongmin followed Li Zicheng, loyally and conscientiously marched all the way to the north and south, and made many contributions.

For Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin is his biggest support, his Xu Da, his Han Xin, and his Lu Bu!

Now, after finally sweeping the north and hitting the city of Beijing, Daming was about to be destroyed, but at this time, Liu Zongmin died?
Li Zicheng, I can't accept it!

But whether you accept it or not, the hard facts are right in front of you.

After a while, when Liu Zongmin's body was carried in front of Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and looked up to the sky and roared.

"Who actually killed Zong Min? I'm really angry!"

Li Zicheng yelled, his body trembled, his throat felt sweet, and he almost vomited blood on the spot!
