As for Cixi, no matter how much you hated her, you had to admit that she was a ruthless person.
In the entire history of Huaxia civilization, she was the only woman who had achieved what she did as a woman, other than the one from the Tang Dynasty.
However, Cixi's ruthlessness was used in internal strife, compared to her softness in external affairs.
"You…you traitor, how dare you sit on the dragon throne?”
When Cixi saw Chen Ling sitting on the dragon throne in Taihe Palace, she was so angry that she began to tremble.
"Old witch, wake up. The Qing Dynasty is dead.”
Chen Ling said to Cixi with a smile. At this time, she still couldn't see the situation clearly. As expected, she had dementia.
" The Qing Dynasty is dead. Impossible. This widow's Qing Dynasty cannot be dead. Impossible…"
As Cixi spoke, she fainted.
F * ck…
This was a f * cking actor, right? He fainted just like that.
"Carry her to the side and get the imperial physician to take a look. It's too easy for her to die like this.”Chen Ling waved his hand helplessly and said to his subordinates.
Whether Cixi was really unconscious or pretending to be unconscious, he had no time to care about this matter now.
Even though Chen Ling had conquered the Forbidden City, the real test was coming up next.
How many soldiers were there in the capital?
According to historical records, there were definitely more than 50,000 soldiers in the capital.
And now, the capital's lieutenant camp and the soldiers of the Eight Banners and Three Banners were almost at the Meridian Gate.
Other than the soldiers stationed in the capital, there were also the city guards under the Nine Gates Admiral and the Valiant Cavalry Battalion outside the city.
In total, there were more than 80,000 soldiers that could be mobilized around the capital, and this did not include the troops from Tianjin.
There were only 1800 soldiers under Chen Ling, and they were guarding several gates.
Even if the weapons were advanced, tens of thousands of people were not easy to kill. Even if they killed pigs, tens of thousands of pigs could not be killed in a short period of time.
"D * mn…hurry up and level up. When I reach level 10, everything will be easy.”
Chen Ling looked at the level on the system screen. He was only at 35% of his level 9 experience, which made him a little anxious.
All the guards in the Forbidden City had been killed.
If he wanted to level up, he could only wait for the next battle.
Da da da da…
At this moment, gunshots rang out from the Meridian Gate again. Chen Ling knew that the Bio-Human soldiers guarding the Meridian Gate had started fighting with the Manchu troops.
"Leave 100 people to watch them. Kill those who act rashly. The rest of you follow me to the Meridian Gate to support them.”
After Chen Ling heard the gunshots, he no longer pretended to be cool in Taihe Palace. He immediately led his men to the Meridian Gate.
When he arrived at the Meridian Gate, he saw the Bio-Human soldiers guarding the Meridian Gate. They were using their firepower to suppress the Qing army, preventing them from reaching the Meridian Gate.
From the looks of it, Chen Ling and the others had the advantage. With their powerful firepower, the Qing army could not charge in at all.
But the problem was that if the Qing army could not rush in, they could not go out and fight the Qing army.
"Inform them to lower their firepower and let the Qing army enter the Meridian Gate. Let them cross the Golden Water Bridge. You guard the Gate of Supreme Harmony, the Gate of Xi He, and the Gate of Harmony. Wait until the Qing army crosses the Golden Water Bridge before attacking.”
Chen Ling looked at the situation for a while and immediately gave the order.
If this continued, he would not lose, but it would be a waste of time.
If this dragged on for too long, the high-ranking officials in the capital would definitely know about the situation. It would not be good if they were allowed to escape.
As expected, the moment Chen Ling's firepower weakened, the Qing army rushed into the Forbidden City like crazy.
Perhaps these Qing troops were useless against the foreigners.
However, they were not afraid of a group of rebels. It was said that there were only a few hundred of them, but their firepower was a little stronger.
Even if they had to take on a group of people, they were confident that they could wipe out the rebel army.
When the time came to rescue Empress Dowager Cixi, wouldn't that be the rhythm of promotion and wealth? Therefore, these Qing troops rushed forward crazily.
"Charge, all of you, charge in and save the empress dowager.”
"Killing a rebel soldier costs 100 taels of silver.”
The Qing army rushed through the Meridian Gate and arrived at the Golden Water Bridge. They found that other than the corpses on the ground, there was no sign of the rebel army.
"Quick, quick, quick…the rebel army must have attacked the palace.”
Just as the Qing army rushed across the Golden Water Bridge and arrived at the Gate of Supreme Harmony, dozens of guns stretched out from behind the Gate of Supreme Harmony.
Da da da da…
In an instant, the Qing army at the forefront fell one by one like wheat being harvested.
At the same time, the soldiers lying in ambush at Xihe Gate and Xiehe Gate opened fire at the same time.
"Ding…congratulations on leveling up!"
This wave of harvest directly raised Chen Ling's level to level 10, and level 10 was also a watershed.
When Chen Ling heard the system notification, he immediately laughed.
50,000 soldiers are nothing, I want 500,000.
