Night falls.

In the camp of the rebel army, Li Zicheng stood solemnly. He was surrounded by Niu Jinxing who had just emerged from Beijing secretly. Song Xiance, who tried to persuade Wu Sangui, was unable to heal Li Yan, who had not healed but could move, and other confidants.

In front of Li Zicheng, two thousand soldiers were waiting for the King of Rebellion to give a speech.

Most of the two thousand soldiers came from the northwest border army of the Ming Dynasty. Because they really couldn't survive, they joined Li Zicheng one after another. In recent years, they were all veterans in the army.

Anyone with a little bit of military knowledge knows that veterans are the most combat-capable backbone in an army.

Li Zicheng said calmly: "It has been more than fifteen years since I started the army. At the beginning, I was chased by the Ming Dynasty's official army like a dog, running around and fleeing, and was in panic all day long.

But I did not admit defeat, I fought repeatedly! Fifteen years have passed, and I will take you to the city of Beijing, only one step away from destroying the Ming Dynasty!

Tonight is our best opportunity. After the arrival of the hour, you will attack Deshengmen, and someone will open the city gate to pick you up.

All you have to do is to firmly stick to Deshengmen. After the subsequent brothers arrive, you will be the ultimate candidate to destroy the Ming Dynasty as a sharp knife.

Do you have confidence?”

Facing Li Zicheng's question, the group of veterans looked solemn and said in unison: "Yes!"

Li Zicheng nodded with satisfaction: "Remember my words, after entering the city, you will be allowed to choose all the women first, and you will be able to plunder all the wealth at will. As long as you can capture the city of Beijing for me, I will give you everything in the world!"

For new recruits, what honors are the inspiring magic weapon to win in the future, but for these veterans who have been through the battlefield or not, women and wealth are their favorite things.

Sure enough, after hearing Li Zicheng's words, all the veterans were in a state of great excitement and raised their weapons together.

"Destroy the Ming Dynasty!"

"kill!"

Amid the shouts, Li Zicheng laughed proudly.

"Gao Jie!"

A general who had already finished his clothes walked to Li Zicheng in great strides and saluted respectfully: "I am here for Gao Jie."

Li Zicheng patted Gao Jie on the shoulder: "Are you ready to go down in history as the first person to attack Beijing City?"

Gao Jie smiled: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I'm ready!"

Li Zicheng's smile became stronger and stronger: "That's good. Take these soldiers under your command for a full meal, and then wait for the arrival of midnight."

Of course, Gao Jie is not as brave as Liu Zongmin, Liu Fangliang and others, but like Li Yan, he is a brave and resourceful general under Li Zicheng. Leaving this task to Gao Jie is the best choice that Li Zicheng can make at the moment.

Deshengmen was not in the south of Beijing, so Gao Jie took these two thousand veterans to the camp secretly and waited for the attack to the rebel camp in the north.

Looking at Gao Jie and others leaving, Li Zicheng remained silent.

The fire shone on Li Zicheng's face. A night wind blew, and the flames kept jumping, and the shadows were passing through his face, making Li Zicheng look gloomy.

Li Zicheng suddenly spoke: "Military advisor, you guys say, what should we do if this failure is the case?"

Hearing Li Zicheng's words, the two military advisors around him were stunned, and then answered in unison.

"Don't worry, this time, our army will definitely win!"

Although Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance had disagreements in politics due to the representative class reasons, it was just a personnel struggle within Dashun.

The Ming Dynasty is the real mortal enemy of the new Dashun!

Li Zicheng did not continue to say anything, but nodded slowly.

Inside the capital, a house is about a few hundred miles away from Deshengmen.

Cao Huachun, Zhou Kui and Wei Zaode met secretly here.

Zhou Kui asked, "Where is Eunuch Wang?"

Cao Huachun said: "Our family doesn't know either. He is following His Majesty today and just sends someone to tell our family that we will meet here in the evening."

Zhou Kui snorted and said unhappily: "This prince will not retreat at the last minute, right? If he goes to report the news, we will be all done!"

Cao Huachun shook his head and said, "Bestie, you are thinking too much. If the prince really retreats and reports, how can we speak well now? And don't forget the letter of the letter written to the King of Chuang a few days ago, he signed the name and pressed his handprint."

Wei Zaode also said: "That's true. Eunuch Wang is a steady person. I have had a lot of dealings with him. I think he wouldn't escape at the last minute, but was delayed by something."

At this moment, a sound of footsteps came, and a few seconds later, Wang Huamin walked in.

After seeing Wang Huamin walk in, Zhou Kui breathed a sigh of relief, but still couldn't help but complain: "Eunuch Wang, don't you know that the situation is urgent now? Why did you come here at this time?"

Wang Huamin's expression was very serious and he said in a deep voice: "The situation is a bit bad. Today I got the news when I followed His Majesty. Wu Sangui has already conquered Tongzhou!"

When the other three were shocked at the same time.

Tongzhou is very close to Beijing City. Even infantry only takes two or three days, and cavalry can even arrive in one day.

Zhou Kui couldn't help but say, "The capital is now so empty that the King of Breaking can't even take it down. If the most elite Guanning Army in the Ming Dynasty arrived, can it still be fought?"

This question made the other three people silent.

Wei Zaode began to shake and said tentatively: "Or what if we might as well cancel our actions today?"

As soon as Wei Zaode finished speaking, the other three said in unison: "No!"

Cao Huachun said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wei, don't forget. If the capital is really guarded, the glory and wealth promised by the King of Break to us will be gone, and there is no hope of recovering the property!"

When Zhou Kui heard the family property, his eyes turned red and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, since the Ming Dynasty does not give us a way out, why should we be loyal to this Ming Dynasty? No matter how hard Wu Sangui can fight, it is impossible for him to fly to the capital tonight. As long as we take over the capital today, everything will be fine!"

Wei Zaode finally calmed down temporarily after being told by the two of them.

Wang Huamin looked around at the three people present and said, "Have our staff arranged?"

Cao Huachun said: "Today there are generals from Zhou and Wei families on the city walls. As long as we give orders, we can immediately seize control of Deshengmen and open the door to welcome the king's army."
