According to the city defense of Luoyang City, it is fine to stick to it for ten days, half a month or even half a year or several years. [】You must know that Luoyang City is not an ordinary place. It is the capital of the gods, Luojing, the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, and was once the heart of the world. It has contributed bricks and tiles throughout the dynasties, which is absolutely magnificent and majestic!

The actual situation in Luoyang City is that there are at least thirty miles around the city. The whole city is covered with bricks, and the city wall is thicker and wider. You can run two four-wheeled carriages side by side! Think about it, what does this mean? It is probably the new type of artillery of the town army, and it is very difficult to make a hole in the city wall. If it is replaced by a small cannon like a crusade, it is probably similar to tickling it, and at most it will be just a white dot.

The trenches around Luoyang City are also very eye-catching. There are four trenches, each about fifty zhang wide, and it is estimated to be four or five zhang deep. It took a long time to dig out this trenches. Now it has played a role. With such a deep water level, let alone people fall down when the bandits rush, they will be burping. Even if the defenders are not so nice, you can dig the soil and fill the trenches, it will not be completed in a short time.

The city gate bridges are all built at the crossing of the five city gates. The suspension bridge is made of the century-old elm locust wood that the two of them hugged together, and no more than a dozen men can lift it! If there are police outside the city, the suspension bridge can be pulled up immediately. To put it bluntly, it is like a hard turtle shell. With Li Zicheng's current firepower, it is like the millet and rifle of a certain army when it was first established in a later era. It is not easy to capture Luoyang City.

Generally speaking, the reason why Li Zicheng was able to conquer famous cities repeatedly in history was not because of the poor defense of the city, but because of the "people". When Li Zicheng's troops were at the city, the war drum beat, or the hungry people in the city should join forces inside and outside, or the local defenders fled or surrendered, Li Zicheng's army often could easily settle in without losing one soldier and one soldier. This situation could make people laugh at later generations!

Zhang Linqi also led his troops to advance quickly. Even after passing through the famous Longmen Grottoes in the world, Zhang Linqi only learned from Dayu to control the flood, but did not enter. Although Zhang Linqi knew that these Longmen Grottoes three hundred years ago were definitely more important than the Longmen Grottoes in later generations, and had more essences preserved, such as the essence of the masters of the steles of all dynasties, the steles of the Buddhist silos of the Tang Dynasty, etc.

However, Zhang Linqi also knew that if the bandits could not be eliminated, then everything would be fake. No matter how much of such a legacy was left, it would be useless. Is it useless to leave them to the rebels? Only when Li Zicheng was pacified can he feel at ease to appreciate it!

………………………………

Eighty miles outside Luoyang City, Yongning City. As a county under the Ming Dynasty, Yongning City is just an ordinary county town, but it had changed its owner a few hours ago. The city wall, which was originally more than ten feet high, has been flattened, but its popularity has not diminished at all. Instead, it is more prosperous than before.

Not to mention the densely packed banners of "crazy" characters, the bonfires everywhere, and the densely packed tents inside and outside the city seem to spread to the horizon.

In the former county government office in Yongning City, there was a group of core figures of the rebel army, surrounding a large round table and discussing major events. They sat upright for the head of the head, nearly forty years old, wearing a white felt hat with red tassels, and a very burly figure. The big eyes flashed from time to time, showing that this person's extraordinaryness!

What is even more unique is that the person's eyes have a faint blue color, showing a different bloodline. According to the research of some scholars in later generations, Li Zicheng was a descendant of the Dangxiang people. The famous writer Ding Ling once claimed that he was a descendant of the Dangxiang people and a descendant of Li Zicheng.

The person's head was also shaved. An important living custom of the Dangxiang people was bald. Li Zhiqiang, who worked in the Tongchuan Mining Bureau of Shaanxi Province, the 14th grandson of Li Zicheng, said: Li Zicheng was descended from Li Yuanhao, the King of Western Xia, and was the Tuoba clan of the Dangxiang ethnic group. The descendants of Li Zicheng in Taiping Village still maintain the characteristics of the original ethnic group, appearance and bald customs.

This person was Li Zicheng, the leader of the rebel army, who was called the King of Chuang at that time. He was called the rebel king by Chongzhen! He wanted to eat his meat and drink his blood! If he was an ordinary bandit leader, Chongzhen did not hate him so much, but Li Zicheng was different. In the past few years, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong led his troops to capture Fengyang, Nanzhili, dug up the ancestors of Chongzhen, the ancestors of all generations, that is, the Ming royal family, and burned down the "Huangjue Temple" that Zhu Yuanzhang once became a monk, killed more than 90 eunuchs, and killed the capital's guard prime minister Zhu Guo.

It can be said that he had a different hatred with Chongzhen. In the Ming Dynasty, the ultimate hatred was to dig the other party’s ancestral grave, and Li Zicheng did exactly this. Now that Zhang Xianzhong has been executed, Chongzhen transferred all his hatred to Li Zicheng. It is said that whenever Chongzhen wrote the three words Li Zicheng, he wrote it very small, which shows his contempt for Li Zicheng!

Of course, in the original history, the one who forced Chongzhen to hang on Coal Mountain was Li Zicheng who he despised. Now, with Zhang Linqi's sudden appearance, Chongzhen finally no longer had to die in Coal Mountain. As for whether Li Zicheng would not die in Jiugong Mountain, but in the city of Luoyang, let's wait and see.

In the lower left of Li Zicheng, the famous general of the rebel army was sitting. Liu Zongmin ranked first. Although his arrow injury has not healed and he can only rest in bed, such an important meeting can determine the life and death of the rebel army. He has personally experienced the terrible part of the town. So he was also lying on a stretcher and being carried over to attend the meeting.

Sitting under Liu Zongmin's head was Li Guo and Li Zicheng's nephew. Then there were Li Shuangxi, Gao Yigong, Yuan Zongdi, Hao Yaoqi and other Li Zicheng's direct descendants. These people are all famous figures in history, and they are also people who were hated by Chongzhen at this time and wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible.

Anyone here here can win their heads and get promoted and make money.

In the lower right corner next to Li Zicheng, there were some people sitting, namely Li Zicheng's think tank. The leader was in his forties, with three long beards, clear face, wearing a square flat scarf, a green robe that only a Ming juren could wear, and a big goose feather fan in his hand, which was thick and had a bit of the taste of Confucius in the Three Kingdoms.

This person is Niu Jinxing, who is also the one with the highest education in Li Zicheng's bandit group. He was once a juren of the Lu family. In the original history, he later became the founding prime minister of the Dashun Dynasty. However, Niu Jinxing was already very stupid at that time and was just anxious to be his founding prime minister. So he sent a surrendered general from the Ming Dynasty to contact Wu Sangui, the swaying general of Shanhaiguan to contact him. In the future, he was defeated by Shanhaiguan! The Tartars group of wolves entered the pass! It can be said that a series of shame in the modern history of the country began!

Now, it is unknown if Niu Jinxing has just surrendered. However, Li Zichengxin is still very excited to have a juren who was once arrogant to surrender. This proves that he is the destiny of heaven, "Eighteen children, be the main artifact."

God's will is like this, Li should prosper, respond to the will of heaven, and follow the will of the people. He has the appearance of an emperor.

Of course, now that the destiny is coming, there is a roadblock in the Li family's road of advancing, that is, the town that came from afar. Now they are discussing countermeasures for this.

Next to Niu Jinxing was a man sitting. He was short and undeveloped dwarf. He was wearing a Taoist robe, with a narrow face like a horse's face, and a fierce look like a ghost. But he was in a group of people at this moment, his eyes seemed to be closed, and he looked like a master!

This person was Song Xiance, a wise man who defected to Li Zicheng not long ago. Because he was too short, he was about the same as a seven-year-old child. The army called him "Song Haier" Song Short. Moreover, because he looked really weird, he was disliked by everyone. However, Song Xiance himself did not think so. Instead, he thought he was "born and strange". It was estimated that it would be difficult for the new bird gun in the town to call him at such a height. The area was too small!

He also quoted classics to prove it. Not to mention that Liu Bei's ears are as big as a wheel, such as Sima Yi, a famous historical figure, was the father of Sima Zhao who was well-known to everyone. The one who laid a lifelong foundation for Sima Zhao. Cao Cao once commented on him as an eagle looking at the wolf.

The eagle's eyes are as sharp as an eagle. The legend of Wolf Gu is that the wolf can keep its body still, and its neck can be turned back 10 degrees. Sima Yi has this ability. Cao Cao found that Sima Yi turned his head like a "wolf Gu", that is, if he doesn't move his body, he can turn his head 10°, similar to later robots.

So Cao Cao thought that "Sima Yi looked at the wolf and could not be given military power; it would be a disaster for the country in the long run." However, even a rude master like Cao Cao could not eliminate Sima Yi. It can be seen that many people who have "distinct" in history have succeeded. With Song Xiancai as his name, he often made plans for Li Zicheng and repeatedly worked. Therefore, he was highly regarded by Li Zicheng and ranked second in Li Zicheng's think tank. The soldiers dared to underestimate him.

Next to Song Xiance, there was a very young man sitting. He was about twenty years old, his face was as beautiful as a jade, and his long black hair was tied neatly behind his head with a hair scarf, showing his good temperament. What's more special is that he was also wearing the blue robe and scarf dress of a Ming Juren.

This person is Li Yan, who is a juren, and the people call him "Prince Li". His role in Li Zicheng is huge, just like Goebbels, the propaganda minister of Nazi Germany during World War II. Back then, Goebbels bewitched many countries through his clever mouth and jumped into the warship of Nazi Germany. Finally, they sank together!
