What does it mean to have the inherent saying that "it is easy to fight the country and the mountains is difficult to defend the country"? I believe that looking at Li Zicheng's career as emperor, you will understand, no wonder Li Zicheng only served as emperor for 42 days, but he led his troops to fight for 18 years. Originally thought that there would be a scene of sheep herding babies constantly upgrading to play the boss, and finally sit on the CEO throne, marry Bai Fumei from then on to the peak of life drama, did not expect to fall so quickly, then what is the reason why he can't sit still? It has nothing to do with these 3 stupid acts he did in these 42 days!
First: There should be no rush to prepare for the enthronement ceremony
Li Zicheng was anxious to ascend the throne as soon as he arrived in the capital, and at this time he was experiencing the great plague of the plague in the capital, the peasant army was burning and looting in the city, the army was scattered, and the casualties were heavy, at this time Li Zicheng only cared about the dream of the emperor, and did not know that the crises faced were many, the people had just experienced war, their lives were ruined, and they could not live in peace. At this time, it is necessary to comfort the people, reclaim the people's hearts, and stabilize the army, but Li Zicheng, instead of worrying about his own enthronement ceremony, moved into the palace early, stayed overnight in the dragon bed, robbed many concubines and palace women, and took the palace women as concubines and enjoyed the pleasures of the emperor. He also put up a shelf for his courtiers and did not listen to advice.
Second: Indulge your subordinates in wanton behavior
The Dashun Army founded by Li Zicheng started with a peasant uprising, and although it was under the banner of "eliminating righteousness for the people" and "eliminating violence and peace and well-being," after entering Beijing, it connived with his subordinates to burn and rob the people's property, wantonly robbed the people's women, robbed the rich people of gold, silver, and jewelry, and raided their homes everywhere. Therefore, it did not bring well-being to the people, but the people complained and suffered unspeakably. This also made the capital itself unpopular at all, and laid the hidden danger for the later attack and no one to use, and eventually escaped from the capital.

Third: Rob Chen Yuanyuan and anger Wu Sangui
Li Zicheng's most foolish behavior was that he did an extremely devastating thing, which directly led to the entry of the Manchu Qing, the loss of the capital, and the escape and exile to Xi'an. Chen Yuanyuan was the wife of Wu Sangui, a heavy soldier at Shanhaiguan, but Li Zicheng seized Gao Yuanyuan and killed his father when he persuaded Wu Sangui to surrender, originally Wu Sangui intended to surrender, but when he heard the news, he was extremely angry, insisted on not surrendering, turned around and defected to the Qing general Dolgun, and quickly raised an army in cooperation with the Qing army, and li Zicheng's Dashun army fell into the water, directly leading to the final defeat.
In the 42 days that Li Zicheng spent in Beijing, he actually ascended the throne as emperor for one day. After he had the throne, concubines, gold and silver treasures, he killed 34 people of all sizes up and down Wu Sangui, and fled to Xi'an the next day. What do you think of Li Zicheng's stupid behavior? Xiaobian believes that everything is not reached quickly, and do not forget the original intention!
