Why didn't Li Zicheng become Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang? What did he do in his 42nd year in office?

Li Zicheng did not become Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang. Within 42 days of becoming emperor, he always did three things wrong. It was these three mistakes that completely disappointed the people and completely ended his rule.

At that time, Li Zicheng reduced the fighting capacity of the former Emperor Chongzhen's army because of the disaster in Beijing. At that time, Li Zicheng also seized Beijing and successfully ended the rule of Emperor Chongzhen. The first wrong thing he did was to insult Emperor Chongzhen. On the first day of his reign, he searched for the body of Emperor Chongzhen. After finding the body of Emperor Chongzhen, put it in the city gate for public display. This is undoubtedly an insult to the emperor. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen was very dedicated and loved the people, so Li Zicheng's behavior disheartened the people.

The second thing he did was to indulge his soldiers. At that time, because Li Zicheng's troops often made insurrections in Beijing, they were able to defeat themselves at first, but the time was not normal, so they stopped suppressing their desires and plundered women everywhere in Beijing. When Li Zicheng knew these things, he didn't stop them, but let them go.

The third wrong thing he did was to take Wu Sangui's favorite concubine, Gao Yuanyuan. At that time, Li Zicheng tried to attract Wu Sangui but forcibly took Wu Sangui's concubine, which completely angered Wu Sangui and led Wu Sangui to surrender to the Qing army. It was Wu Sangui's surrender that led to the growth of the Qing army. At that time, Li Zicheng's army could not resist the Qing army. So Li Zicheng's rule was overthrown only after more than 40 days as emperor. It can be said that Li Zicheng has no talent to be a monarch. He has no plans for this country.
