"The city is broken! The city is broken!"

The Ming army, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately rushed in from the collapsed gap of Yifeng Gate like a tide. Due to the power of blasting and great damage, when the Ming army rushed into the city, the Qing army could not organize effective defense at all, and could only watch the more and more Ming troops with high morale.

The first thing that collapsed were the temporary soldiers and young men. These people were not regular soldiers. When they saw the towering city walls being broken by the other party like paper, the last glimmer of hope in their hearts was completely shattered. In addition, after the explosion, the Ming army rushed into the city like a surging force, so these ordinary people did not have the desire to resist? When the first person began to turn around and run into the city, the rest of the people hurriedly threw away their weapons and fled desperately to the city regardless of the obstruction of the Qing army around them.

The collapse of the soldiers and young men led to the defeat of the regular army. Although some Green Camp and Eight Banners tried to stop the escaped people, they just slashed one of them and ran around them. Some soldiers and young men even fled to seize the road, turned their guns and swung their weapons to the Green Camp and Eight Banners soldiers who were fighting side by side a while ago. Since the number of soldiers and young men was far greater than that of the regular army, their positions were immediately chasing.

"Counterattack! Counterattack! Bring the thieves back!" Jiangning General Okson shouted loudly, and rushed over with hundreds of people, trying to reorganize the defense and defeat the Ming army that rushed into the city.

But at this time, more and more Ming troops were entering the city, and the Ming troops were well-trained. After rushing into the city, they did not blindly chase the city. Instead, they first formed combat units based on squads, and then formed a squad to form a brigade or even a whole battalion of troops, covering each other and rolling towards the left and right sides and forward. In a short while, they occupied the entire area around Yifeng Gate.

When Jiangning General Okxun arrived in a hurry, there were nearly a thousand Ming troops entering the city, and the number was still rising. After finally gathering hundreds of defeated soldiers, Okxun knew in his heart that if he did not repel the Ming troops at this time, the longer the hope of defending them would be slim.

Immediately, he gritted his teeth and rushed over to himself, trying to repel the opponent and block the gap again. Unfortunately, the Ming army's combat power was far stronger than he thought. Not only did he fail to repel the Ming army after several charges, he suffered heavy injuries.

"Capture Jinling! The Ming Dynasty has won thousands of victories! Long live the country's supervision!"

"Kill! Kill!!!"

The shouts of killing from all directions were connected. Although Oksun, who was very skilled in martial arts, he still retreated step by step with his sword in his hand. Seeing that there was no hope of counterattack, Oksun was anxious and his eyes were red and his heart was filled with infinite sadness.

"Kill the rebels! The time is for loyalty to the Qing Dynasty! All the soldiers will follow me to kill..."

Waving the sword, Okson exclaimed loudly, suddenly feeling something hit on his chest. When he looked down, he saw a big hole in front of his chest, and blood and broken internal organs were flowing out along the hole.

The strength in his body seemed to disappear with the blood flowing out in an instant. Okxun relaxed his right hand and the sword fell to the ground with a sound of a precious knife. He tried hard to look forward and saw a young Ming army not far away, putting down the musket in his hand. The Ming army looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a youthful childishness on his face. The musket in his hand was emitting light smoke. It should have just been fired, which means that the gun in his chest should have been shot by him.

"I didn't expect that I, Okson, would die like this... The emperor... the slave... the slave tried his best..." Okson's eyes changed from astonishment to doubt and then from doubt to grief and anger. Finally, with infinite attachment and reluctance to this world, he gradually lost all his expression...

When Ekson's body fell heavily to the ground, the Qing army's counterattack attempt to regain Yifeng Gate completely failed. With the cheers and shouts of killing, countless Ming army steps past Ekson's body and killing the city...

Jinling City was completely broken. After more than an hour, the Ming army took Yifeng Gate as a breakthrough point to seize several city gates on both sides. Immediately after learning that Yifeng Gate was broken, the Qing army defending five city gates in the east and south directions began to collapse. The Ming army took advantage of the situation and successfully climbed to the top of the city under the cover of artillery fire, and then seized these city gates.

After more than two hours, all the Qing troops at the inner city gate were lost, and the Qing troops who retreated into the city could only begin to shrink into the city under the organization of middle and lower-level officers. Governor Gali led his governor's bidding and the only last battalion of green camps in the city, centered on the Governor's yamen and several streets and alleys around to resist.

In the evening of that day, the Ming army basically cleared the rest of the Qing army in the city and surrounded Gali's remnants. After a fierce night of fighting, the remnants of Gali were completely resolved at dawn the next day. Gali himself committed suicide but was captured. The Liangjiang Governor's Office occupied it, and the entire Jinling City was completely fallen into the hands of Zhu Yicheng.

"Jinling... No! The lonely Ming Nanjing City has finally been taken down!"

After the good news reached Zhu Yicheng, Zhu Yicheng, who had not slept all night, finally smiled. He looked at the Nanjing city in front of him. The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties finally returned to the Ming Dynasty. With the capture of Nanjing, the strategic goal was basically achieved. The next step was to free up hands to deal with Su Song's Qing army, and then counterattack the Qing army in Fujian.

When all this was settled, the Ming army completely occupied Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Taiwan, such as part of Huizhou and part of northern Fujian, as well as Jiujiang, Wuchang and other places occupied by Yuan Qi and Zhu Jiancai's territory in Henan, which shows that the army had the capital to truly compete with the Qing army for the world at this time.

"The country is ready, you can enter the city." Zhuang Yan said to Zhu Yicheng with a smile. At this time, Wang Dong and Boss Pan, who were commanding the navy, hurried over. Seeing Zhu Yicheng and the others knelt down from afar, Zhu Yicheng smiled and took a few steps forward to help them up one by one. At the same time, he praised the contributions made by the navy to seize Nanjing, which made Wang Dong and Boss Pan very excited.

Although the Ming army captured Nanjing City with Yifeng Gate as a breakthrough point, Zhu Yicheng did not walk through this gate when he entered the city, but instead entered through Zhengyang Gate. This was not only because Zhengyang Gate was the main gate of Nanjing as the capital, but also the national gate after Zhu Yuanzhang built this gate!

Entering the city from Zhengyang Gate not only represents the orthodox Ming Dynasty, but also determines Zhu Yicheng's legal status as a descendant of Zhu Ming. When Zhu Yicheng drove from Zhengyang Gate, long live like a tsunami came from all directions.

"Long live the Ming Dynasty! Long live the capital of Nanjing! Long live the country! Long live the supervision! Long live!"
