In the battle of Civil Fort, 500,000 main troops of the Ming army were really wiped out. As for what the situation is, take your time. First of all, let's talk about the historical background of the Ming Dynasty. During this period, the Ming army slacked off. Interestingly, in the eighth year of Xuande, when the governor of Liaodong visited Shandong, he found that there were only five old and weak soldiers in 130, and the vacancy rate actually reached 96%. In the face of inquiry, the military generals prevaricated and could not ask why. However, this situation is not a case. During the inspection, it was found that there were only five or six people at Shanhaiguan, an important checkpoint. All these show how serious the military corruption was at that time.

In this context, let's talk about the real situation of this civil war fortress war. At that time, Zhu Qizhen trusted eunuch Wang Zhen very much. Under the wrong command of Wang Zhen, 500,000 troops were losing ground. The Emperor urged Wu Kezhong and Wu Keqin to go out and make an inspection. Although the two men led troops to resist desperately, the quality of the Ming army was not as good as that of the Valla army, and they both died in battle.

Then the Ming army retreated to the civil fort. At this time, Emperor Zhu Qizhen could have returned to Juyongguan, but the reason for staying in the civil fort was absurd. The reason is that Wang Zhen's baggage carriage didn't arrive, which was full of luxury goods for returning home, and then the whole army was waiting for the arrival of the carriage. Later, the carriage arrived, but Vara's army also arrived and surrounded the civil fort.

On the first day, the troops stopped cooking. Although Zhu Qizhen could not stop cooking, the 500,000 troops had nothing to eat. One day, the army went hungry on the first day, and the water was cut off the next day. If 500,000 people didn't eat or drink, they would be fighting. On the third day, in order to defeat the Ming army, the Walla army gave the Ming army a retreat. Seeing a glimmer of hope, the Ming army swarmed in. At this time, the Ming army looks like an army and looks like a refugee. At this time, the Valla army began to harvest, resulting in the annihilation of 500,000 troops and the capture of Emperor Zhu Qizhen.
