Chapter 145 Erlang, please remember your mission!
The "Little Yuan Camp" mentioned by Zhu Guobi refers to the troops of Yuan Shizhong, the general under Li Zicheng, but the "Little Yuan Camp" under Zhu Guobi's command is not all, but one of them has only more than a thousand people.
Yuan Shizhong was not Li Zicheng's subordinate. It was just because locusts were flying in the local area to cover the sun, and the people had no food in the winter, so they gathered tens of thousands of people to revolt. Because of their strict military discipline and strong combat effectiveness, the people of Henan called them "Little Yuanying", also known as "Buddhas", which means that the benevolence and righteousness of the Little Yuanying.
In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Yuan Shizhong was chased and beaten by the Ming army, so Yuan Shizhong had no choice but to join forces with Li Zicheng to open the forefront to attack. Soon after, seeing that the bandits in Li's army were serious, he drove away to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. However, the Ming Dynasty was afraid that Yuan Shizhong would surrender and dared not accept him, so he forced Yuan Shizhong to return, and the two states of Bo were confused.
Last year, Rao Yubeile Abatai led his troops into the pass. His general Gushan Ezhen Baiertu led more than a thousand Mongolian soldiers from the foreign vassals and 3,000 Han troops to fight south to Haizhou in Huai'an Prefecture, burning, killing, looting, and killing countless people along the way.
When Yuan Shizhong heard that the Tartars entered the pass again, he was indignant that he led Xiao Yuan camp to Shandong to prepare for a battle with the Tartars. Halfway through, he heard that a Tartar soldiers occupied Haizhou, so he led his troops to attack Haizhou, and ended up encountering the Qing army outside Haizhou City.
Xiao Yuanying was brave and brave. He first used cannons and then shot arrows, and finally fought with the Qing army in hand and blood. The Qing army could not resist the camels that fled into Haizhou City, and the baggage was seized by Xiao Yuanying.
Yuan Shizhong then surrounded Haizhou. The Qing army in the city was scared by the Xiao Yuan camp. Gushan Ezhen Baiertu actually bowed and sent someone to give Yuan Shizhong gifts and beg him to rescue him.
Yuan Shizhong killed the fifty Qing soldiers sent by Baiertu to give gifts. He originally wanted to capture Haizhou and completely resolve the Qing army. However, the main force of the Tartars in Shandong heard that Haizhou was surrounded and sent troops to rescue him. The soldiers in Xuzhou and Haizhou in the Ming Dynasty did not care that Xiao Yuan camp was fighting with the Tartars, but they also raised their troops to attack and say that they wanted to "suppress the bandits."
Yuan Shizhong had no choice but to withdraw from Haizhou. He had no place to stand and met Li Zicheng again. As a result, Li Zicheng, who had long been suspicious of him, ordered his nephew Li Guo to behead him.
After Li Guo removed Yuan Shizhong, he originally wanted to incorporate all the Xiao Yuan camps, but some of the soldiers of Xiao Yuan camps hated the killing of the lord and were unwilling to work hard for Li Zicheng, so he abandoned the camp and scattered them all.
One of the more than a thousand people rushed to the junction of Shandong and Henan under the leadership of Yuan Shizhong's brother-in-law Zheng Sihua and fellow villager Wang Dalong. Because they were unwilling to violate Yuan Shizhong's orders during their lifetime, they had no food in the army. After discussing with Wang Dalong, Zheng Sihua decided to send someone to beg for surrender to the Ming Dynasty again.
This time, Xiao Yuan camp remnants got the opportunity.
Zhu Guobi, the Funing Marquis who had just been sent to Shandong by Chongzhen to be responsible for the river, heard that there were bandits to surrender and the famous Xiao Yuan camp in the army was at that time. He was overjoyed and immediately sent deputy general Ma Rulong to lead them over.
The reason why Zhu Guobi attached so much importance to Zheng Sihua and the others was that not long ago, the salt inspector Wu Luzhong gave the court a question book, which was about the detailed process of Xiao Yuanying fighting with the Qing army in Haizhou.
This memorial, titled "The Imperial Principal of the Imperial Principal Wu Luzhong's Inscription", was the only official manuscript in the Ming Dynasty that had a positive evaluation of the "treaches" and gave fair records, and was published on the Tang newspaper.
If Yuan Shizhong had not been killed, the Ming Dynasty would have likely changed its previous attitude and actively sent people to recruit Xiao Yuanying.
Although it was not all the small Yuan camp led by Yuan Shizhong, even more than a thousand people were enough to make Zhu Guobi moved. After all, this team was much better than the Qing army.
After Zheng Sihua and Wang Dalong led the remaining troops of Xiao Yuanying to Zhu Guobi's place, the Marquis of Funing really trusted them and directly regarded them as their direct descendants. They received rewards from time to time, allowing Zheng Sihua and Wang Dalong to work hard for them, and then protected Zhu Guobi all the way to escape from south Shandong.
It was precisely because of these more than a thousand soldiers who could fight that Zhu Guobi had the confidence to agree to fight, otherwise he would not have agreed to what Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, said.
The reason why he dared to get off the boat was because Xiao Yuan camp was there.
However, even if the remaining troops of Xiao Yuan camp were led by Zheng Sihua and Wang Dalong, fighting hard with the "bandits" Huai Army in their eyes, it could not change the fact that Zhu Guobi's troops collapsed.
Or if the pig teammates cheated people to death.
The Iron Armored Guards of the Huai Army were sharp and unstoppable, but when they were exhausted, Zheng Sihua originally wanted to fight and retreat and consume the strength of the Iron Armored Guards of the Huai Army, and wait for reinforcements from the rear to come up before counterattacking.
However, the other Ming troops on both sides were constantly severely damaged by the Huai army. The left wing still had a little power to fight back, and the right wing was directly stirred by someone with a bamboo pole, which seemed to put a blade in his stomach.
The Huai Army even took the opportunity to drive the defeated soldiers of the Ming army on the right wing, and drove the central army continuously to the two groups of people and horses to the same place, breaking the rear of the Xiao Yuanying, which was in front of him.
The rest of the Xiao Yuanying Army, who could still grit their teeth and persevere, probably also died for his confidant. After all, Zhu Guobi treated them well.
Zhu Guobi was willing to accept Zheng Sihua and the others' retreat. The marquis who governed the Beijing camp knew very well what the difference between 10,000 troops and 1,000 elite troops was.
But the collapse of both wings made him powerless. The two reinforcements from the rear were even slower. After barely waiting for a while, they still didn't come. Zhu Guobi was really panicked. He didn't want to be "sold" and could only take the horse and leave first, otherwise the thieves would kill him and he wouldn't be able to leave even if he wanted to leave.
When the Marquis left, the Ming army, which was already in chaos, was even more panicked. The wolf ran and the ghost shouted to the ferry. After running, the small Yuan camp was left in the huge battlefield.
Wang Dalong wanted to run away, but Zheng Sihua stopped him from his stupid decision, saying that so many defeated soldiers rushed to the ferry, afraid that they would kill each other to rob the ship without the thieves driving them away.
"It is better to fight for his own way of death than to die at the hands of his own people!"

The bloody path Zheng Sihua pointed to was to fight westward and go towards Yizhen. Maybe there would be a chance to meet with another Ming army.
"good!"
Wang Dalong had always heard Zheng Sihua, and saw the thieves rushing to the ferry and chasing the defeated soldiers. He also knew that even if they retreated to the ferry, they were just fools who were chased into the river. He immediately commanded the remnants of Zheng Sihua and fought with the iron-armored soldiers in front of him and retreated to the west.
"Master Lu, the officers and soldiers are defeated!"
Seeing the Ming army of Zhu Guobi's troops fleeing to the ferry crossing, Sun Wujin was so happy that he stamped his feet.
"If you lose, you'll lose."
Lu Si was not as excited as Sun Wujin at all. If he didn't win against this third-rate army that Shi Kefa had pieced together, Lu Si would not be called Wenzong.
"Master Lu, those soldiers are really fucking able to bear it. I led the flag team up to cut them clean!" Seeing that there was a group of Ming troops with about a few hundred people fighting with the Iron Armored Guards, and there was no sign of collapse, Sun Wujin was eager to try.
As for war, if your opponent is too weak, it will be useless.
But Lu Si stared at him with deep eyes again: "Erlang, have you forgotten your mission?"
"Master Lu, me?" Sun Wujin was stunned: What mission?
"Go, if you can't catch the person in white robe, don't come back!"
