Chapter 222 Li Zicheng's Decision
Everyone's complexion has changed drastically, especially Li Zicheng's complexion has already darkened.

Don't look at the fact that they have millions of people now, but they have already lost 10,000+ people in Chengtianmen.

If at this time, Daming's 10,000+, or even 20 reinforcements come, the battle that is already almost a foregone conclusion will be completely reversed!

At this moment, it was time for Li Zicheng to make a choice.

Now, should I continue to attack Guangcheng, or should I first defeat the enemy troops who came to aid me!
Li Zicheng also knew very well in his heart that if Daming really had 10,000+ reinforcements coming, he must deal with it carefully, and it is impossible to divide the troops.

Don't look at the fact that there are millions of people under his command, but if these people are compared with those professional officers and soldiers, their combat effectiveness is still not as good as that of officers and soldiers.

Their group, except for the [-] elite cavalry that Li Zicheng has trained carefully over the years, all rely on crowd tactics.

Now if they face 10,000+ or ​​even 20 officers and soldiers, if they don't all dispatch their own people, it may not be easy to beat the opponent back!
But now, the defenders on the imperial city seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. They no longer had guns and could not use firearms. Now it was only a matter of time before he wanted to take down the imperial city!Now, if he tries his best, he might be able to take down the imperial city, go in and capture the dog emperor inside!
At that time, with the dog emperor as a threat, maybe the 10,000+ officers and soldiers still dare not act rashly!

Therefore, Li Zicheng had already made such a big sacrifice to win the imperial city, and he was really not reconciled if he wanted him to give up. After thinking about it, Li Zicheng decided to gamble this time!
Li Zicheng said to the thief who sent the letter: "Go and tell the brothers guarding the city to let them persevere. You must persevere. You can only persevere for half a day, half a day is enough!"

The thief who sent the letter hesitated for a while, and said with some difficulty: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there are too many defenders outside, and they are all coming in menacingly. I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on. I can't hold on!"

Hearing this, Li Zicheng said angrily: "Tell them, no matter what, you must persevere! You must persevere! You must persevere even if you die! This is an order! No matter what, they must persevere for a long time, no matter what the hell Give me half a day!"

Seeing that Li Zicheng was furious, the thief who sent the message could only nod his head and said, "Yes!"

Then he left in a hurry.

Seeing that the messenger had left, Li Zicheng looked at the Chengtian Gate, tore off half of his clothes, half-naked, and pulled out the long knife at his waist, shouting loudly: "Brothers, we don't have much time left now! Go! Come with me, let's rush in! Catch that dog emperor alive! Kill! Kill in!"

In such an emergency, Li Zicheng personally went into battle, which greatly inspired the courage of his men.

Sure enough, under Li Zicheng's encouragement, the morale of those thieves is now high, and they charge towards Chengtianmen one by one without fear of life and death.

Qi Jiguang, who was standing on the tower, looked at the scene in front of him, and said angrily: "Bastard! This intruder is going all out now! He wants to gamble!"

At the critical moment, Qi Jiguang shouted to Dasheng's soldiers: "Dasheng's soldiers, hold on! As long as we can withstand the counterattack of these thieves, we will win! Hold on!"

"I, Qi Jiguang, are with you, and I swear to the death to fight these thieves to the end!"

Now Qi Jiguang is also going all out, fighting for it!

If the reinforcements hadn't arrived, he might still consider breaking out, but Dasheng's reinforcements had already signaled that they were coming, so how could he give up!

Then, another brutal battle began.

These thieves were as crazy as they were, and the defenders of Dasheng were even more crazy by them!
The defense battle of the entire imperial city has also entered a feverish state!
But now, outside the capital, the 70 strong army headed by Xia Houyuan has completely surrounded the entire capital.

The thieves outside the city were not even qualified to fight with the soldiers of Dasheng, that is, after a few times of firing, the thieves outside the city were all defeated by the defenders of Dasheng.

Then, Xia Houyuan issued the order to break through the capital of Ming Dynasty!
Xia Houyuan also knew that the Dasheng defenders in the city must have reached the most urgent and dangerous time, so he didn't dare to hesitate, and directly ordered the ten artillery regiments under him.Simultaneously launched indiscriminate bombing against the seven gates of the capital.

Then concentrate the most elite troops to attack Yongdingmen.

Under the cover of Dasheng's powerful firepower, Yongding Gate was broken without holding on for two hours.

And the other seven doors were broken one after another under Dasheng's spear and cannon!

The 70 Dasheng army entered the capital with great strength, and then surrounded the entire capital in a watertight manner.

Fearing that Qi Jiguang and the others would not be able to hold on, Xia Houyuan directly led the elite lineage under his command, and 2 people took the lead in a strong charge, forcibly killing a bloody path and hitting the Daming Gate in the inner city.

After another bloody battle, Dasheng's army occupied Daming Gate, and then headed towards the imperial city.

And the other Dasheng's hundreds of thousands of troops also moved towards the four places in the southeast and northwest, and slowly killed the intruders in the city. The intruders were no match for Dasheng's army at all!
Under the absolute strength and comprehensive firepower of Dasheng's army, Dasheng's 70 troops directly blocked Li Zicheng's millions of thieves in the inner city of the capital.

And now, the battle in front of Chengtian Gate is still going on with an incomparably tragic one.

And the fighting situation is getting more and more intense.

Many burglars and thieves have already boarded the city gate.

Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin led people to occupy the tower.

And now, below the Chengtian Gate, the city gate of the Chengtian Gate is also about to be opened under the desperate attack of these intruders.

The Dasheng defenders headed by Qi Jiguang are still desperately resisting, sticking to the tower. Although there are constant casualties on Dasheng's side, the Dasheng defenders are still fearless.

And Qi Jiguang himself is now injured and continues to fight. Now Qi Jiguang's Chengtian Gate has 4000 defenders, and only [-] people are left. You can imagine how tragic this battle was!

The war has reached this point, even Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin and the others can't help but admire Qi Jiguang's army.

Li Zicheng no longer took the initiative to recruit these defenders, because he knew the determination of the defenders on these towers to hold on to the imperial city, and these defenders were determined not to surrender to the death!

Looking at the retreating Dasheng defenders who had already been killed by him, Li Zicheng raised his arms and shouted: "Kill! Go up and kill them all! Kill the dog emperor!"
