12. The Dashun Army's offensive was frustrated, and my Prince Daming is mighty
Liu Zongmin's death was completely beyond the expectations of all the Dashun soldiers around him.
But the personal guards around Liu Zongmin still reacted very quickly and immediately surrounded him.
"General, General!"
Liu Zongmin's body remained motionless.
Soon, someone finally realized the reality and shouted.
"General Liu is dead!"
This shout instantly broke the mentality of all the soldiers of Dashun Army nearby.
They began to be scared and subconsciously retreated.
Liu Zongmin, the number one general under the command of the King of Chuang, died suddenly.
If anyone continues to stay here, will he be killed by the Ming Dynasty's official army?
Retreat, retreat quickly!
On the city wall, Zhu Cilang breathed a sigh of satisfaction.
Through the scope, he clearly saw the process of Liu Zongmin being shot and falling off the horse, and knew that the other party was bound to die.
Of course, Zhu Cilang also heard the shouts from Cao Huachun behind him.
So Zhu Cixuan 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 Cilang, an extremely dangerous feeling suddenly emerged in his heart.
At this moment, Cao Huachun felt that he seemed to be targeted by an ancient beast that could choose people at any time!
Not only Cao Huachun, but also Cao Huachun's several confidants were shocked by Zhu Cilang's momentum and did not dare to step forward for a while.
At this moment, Wang Chengen next to him suddenly burst out with cheers.
"Look, the enemy's lord was killed by the prince, and they have begun to retreat!"
Cao Huachun and Zhu Cilang were attracted by this sentence at the same time and turned to look down at the city.
Indeed, after discovering that Liu Zongmin was killed, the vanguard of the rebellion army was immediately defeated by great morale.
As the saying goes, you will be brave!
It is not an exaggeration to say that the role of a general in the war is to shoulder the key to victory or defeat.
In many battles, the main general was obviously at the advantage, but he was suddenly attacked by a cold arrow, and then he turned from victory to defeat.
As the number one general of the rebellion army, Liu Zongmin's reputation among the rebellion army can be said to be at its peak, and even the rebellion king Li Zicheng had to worry about three points.
Now that he died, the morale of the vanguard of the rebel army suddenly plummeted, and he no longer had the desire to fight and began to retreat one after another.
Cao Huachun stared at him and was stunned.
At this moment, Cao Huachun came to his senses and knew where Zhu Cilang had shot the shot just now.
"Crown Prince, did Liu Zongmin actually shoot to death?" Cao Huachun's heart was filled with storm.
Looking at the Dashun Army retreating like a tide, there were shocking cheers sounding above the city wall.
"Liu Zongmin is dead!"
"The thief army retreated!"
"We're holding on!"
Everyone was very happy and celebrating freely.
For these Ming official troops, they have heard too many news about the fall of the Ming city and the massacre of the rebel army these days. Even not long ago, they themselves did not feel that they could defend this city wall.
But it turns out that I held it!
After sweeping across the entire Central Plains, the Dashun Army in Hebei finally encountered a major setback under the city of Beijing and lost the number one general Liu Zongmin!
Slowly, everyone's eyes were gathered on Zhu Cixuan.
No one is a fool, they all know what the sudden reversal of the situation is.
It was this young prince who arrived at the most dangerous time. He first defeated the first wave of offensives of the vanguard of the Rebellion Army with cannons, and then killed the general of the Rebellion Army Liu Zongmin, which helped the officials to achieve this victory in defending the city.
Suddenly, a soldier waved his arms and started shouting.
"The prince is mighty and the Ming Dynasty is mighty!"
The next moment, everyone started shouting in unison.
"The prince is mighty and the Ming Dynasty is mighty!"
The shouts rang through the sky, deafening.
Cao Huachun listened to such shouts and felt the scorching gaze of countless soldiers on the city wall. He wanted to continue to let his subordinates take Zhu Cixuan away, but how could he dare to speak out?
Zhu Cilang suddenly took two steps forward, came to Cao Huachun, and smiled and said, "Eunuch Cao, what did you want to do just now? Say it louder, I didn't hear it!"
Cao Huachun was trembling and subconsciously took two steps back, staggering and almost falling.
"Crown Prince, misunderstandings are all misunderstandings! The prince's mighty and powerful, I admire him!"
Zhu Cilang couldn't help laughing when he looked at Cao Huachun's embarrassed appearance.
At this moment, a systematic voice sounded in Zhu Cilang's mind: "Congratulations to the host for killing the number one general under Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin, and repelling the attack of the crusade. Since the host exceeded the task, the host's artillery operation skills were upgraded to S level.
Now the war in Changhua Sect has temporarily stopped. Please rush back to Fengtian Palace as soon as possible and start the next sign-in task."
After hearing the system's words, Zhu Cilang felt relieved.
Judging from this situation, at least today, Changhua Gate has been completely guarded.
As for what's next...
At this moment, an eunuch hurried to the city wall.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty has an order, please return to Fengtian Palace quickly!"
Zhu Cilang smiled. It was really a sleepy encounter with a pillow. I just wanted to go back.
But, you can't just go back like that.
Zhu Cixuan suddenly took out his pistol and fired several shots.
Each shot hit the land beside Cao Huachun, splashing a small amount of smoke and dust, which scared Cao Huachun to scream.
"Crown Prince, I know I am wrong. I have something to say and spare my life!"
Several of Cao Huachun's subordinates looked at each other, wanting to step forward, but they are afraid of getting bullets, so they hesitated and did not dare to move after all.
You know, hundreds of pairs of eyes on the city wall are staring at them!
Zhu Cilang said with a smile: "Eunuch Cao, I am going back to report to my father now. You can stay here for me. Do you know? If something happens here, your Eunuch Cao will have to eat this bullet like Liu Zongmin!"
If it were normal, Zhu Cilang certainly could not consider any political skills, but at this critical moment, it is more reliable to just show the gun!
After saying this, Zhu Cilang waved to Wang Chengen not far away: "What are you waiting for? Go back to the palace with me!"
Wang Chengen looked at this scene with a very complicated expression.
According to common sense, Cao Huachun was Wang Chengen's adoptive father in the palace. Wang Chengen's current situation is inseparable from Cao Huachun's support.
However, as the crown prince, Zhu Cilang is Wang Chengen’s real master!
What's more, what Zhu Cilang and Cao Huachun do today is even more disparate.
Zhu Cilang saved the Ming Dynasty from danger, and Cao Huachun did nothing except to drag him back.
With this in mind, Wang Chengen also had an idea in his heart and hurriedly said, "Hurry up, my slave is here!"
After saying that, Wang Chengen followed Zhu Cilang away. As for his adoptive father Cao Huachun who collapsed to the ground, he didn't even take a look!
Outside the city, Li Zicheng was furious.
"Liu Zongmin, a bastard, did not have my orders, why did he lead the entire army to retreat? Do he think he doesn't have to listen to what I said? Can Dashun be better?"
Just as Li Zicheng was cursing, a general of the rebel army rode his horse like a deceased parent, then rolled and fell off the horse, and rolled and crawled in front of Li Zicheng.
"Your Majesty, something is wrong. The left governor, Lord Liu Zongmin, was killed by the official army!"
Li Zicheng was hit by lightning, and his whole body was directly stationary.
After several seconds, Li Zicheng came to his senses and roared: "This is impossible, it's simply nonsense!"
Li Zicheng couldn't believe it.
Over the years, Liu Zongmin followed Li Zicheng and fought all the way to the north and south, and I don’t know how many contributions he made.
For Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin was his greatest support, his Xu Da, his Han Xin, and his Lu Bu!
Now, after finally sweeping across the north and fighting to the city of Beijing, the Ming Dynasty was about to be destroyed, but at this time, Liu Zongmin died?
Li Zicheng, can't accept it!
But whether you accept it or not, the iron-like facts are 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 roared to the sky.
"Who is it? I actually killed Zong Min. It's really angering me!"
Chapter completed!
