Late Ming: Raising an Army of Ten Billion and Kidnapping Chen Yuanyuan

I transmigrated to the seventeenth year of the Chongzhen era and became Zhu Youji, a prince nobody had ever noticed.

Li Zicheng had already reached Juyong Pass, with hundreds of thousands of troops eyeing the capital.

Then, by chance, I activated the Troop-Spawning System, which gave me ten thousand soldiers!

From then on, I set out to save the Great Ming. I killed Luo Yangxing and executed the Earl of Jiading. The corrupt officials of the capital trembled at my name!

In the Hall of Heavenly Purity, Chongzhen reluctantly abdicated. The ministers of the court refused to accept it, so I brought out the Imperial Seal.

I exchanged it for Fang Xuanling to handle civil affairs, recruited Han Xin to reform the army, redeemed flintlock blueprints to form a musket corps, and purchased Portuguese cannons to establish an artillery corps.

Three days later, Li Zicheng surrounded the capital.

And then...

Li Zicheng: Weren't the troops in the capital supposed to be demoralized? Where are the agents we planted? And the ministers who had already surrendered to us?

Subordinate: They were all killed...

Li Zicheng: Even if they're dead, attack!

Subordinate: Our entire army has already been wiped out.
