In fact, Xue Yongli knew very well in his heart that Chen Zhongzhi's accident this time would bring great trouble to the Runing Army. Not to mention anything else, just looking at the results, the court and outsiders will think that the Runing army killed Chen Zhongzhi and annexed his troops. And no matter how much Ru Ningjun explained, it was useless.

But this is the case, and I can only go on hard. However, at the beginning of the whole battle, such an unpleasant thing happened, which made Xue Yongli's heart quite uncomfortable. But then, another unexpected news came.

Just when Xue Yongli was taking over Chen Zhongzhi's troops, he suddenly received an urgent report from Zhou Xun from Ruzhou, and Zhou Xun wrote in the urgent report: "...... Hurry up and reinforce us, we're going to be surrounded by captives. ”

Xue Yongli and his little friends were immediately stunned by this incoherent and illogical sentence. However, these words also reflect that Zhou Xun has lost his mind, and he expresses how excited, boastful, and arrogant he is under zero IQ.

In the original Jihua, while Xue Yongli led his troops to surround Chen Zhongzhi's troops, Zhou Xun led Nanyang's troops north to Ruzhou to make a feint to attract the attention of the camp. After that, Xue Yongli will lead his troops to break the encirclement of the camp, escort Chen Zhongzhi's troops into Kaifeng, and send Yao Liang across the Yellow River. And Shumo will lead Guide's troops to protect Xue Yongli's troops from the flanks.

When all this is completed, these three forces will withdraw to their respective garrisons, and Xue Yongli will concentrate the main force of the Runing Army and begin to move south to encircle the 5th Battalion of Gezuo.

Therefore, according to the original Jihua, Zhou Xun set off with Nanyang's troops at this time. Because he had to guard against Zhang Xianzhong's troops in Xiangyang, Zhou Xun could not take many troops to the expedition, so he asked Zhang Biao to stay in Nanyang with most of the troops, and he personally led 3,400 cavalry. Quickly attack Ruzhou.

At this time, the northeastern region of Henan was completely shrouded by Li Zicheng's camp, because Li Zicheng could not take so many people to attack Kaifeng, so he scattered his troops to various places to eat.

As a result, the peasant army happily plundered the cities and countryside in various places, and still did not depart from the nature of the rogues, but when the Zhou patrol sent troops, all this completely changed.

In the minds of the exiles and bandits in Henan, the Runing Army is a complete combination of angels and demons. said that he was an angel, because as long as the homeless people and bandits accepted by the Runing Army could always solve their food and clothing, so that these people could survive in the year of the catastrophe.

Say he's a demon. That's because as long as the interests of the Runing Army are violated, then they will face the crazy retaliation of the Runing Army, which is simply a chicken and a dog, and even those who shield and do not resist will be exterminated. Therefore, although Henan was rampant with homeless people and bandits, the four seas trading houses of the Runing Army only relied on the banner of the Runing Army. You can pass unhindered in Henan, and no one dares to touch the caravan of the Four Seas Commercial Company.

And now Li Zicheng's swelling 700,000 troops are almost all composed of displaced people and bandits from Henan. So as soon as they saw the banner of the Runing Army. Immediately he fled from the wind. I don't even have the heart to resist, it's just a mouse seeing a cat.

But Zhou Xun dispatched cavalry this time, and the speed of maneuvering was quite fast, and many of the men and horses who broke into the camp did not have time to escape. So after a contact, those men and horses surrendered one after another, very quickly. Zhou Xun captured more than 30,000 prisoners. Therefore, those officers of the Runing Army did not expect that they had such a great influence in Henan.

At this point, Zhou Xun could no longer move. With so many captives, he was already caught in his footsteps. Zhou Xun can't ignore those prisoners, otherwise, those prisoners will disperse again and be thrown into the camp again, isn't that to enhance Li Zicheng's strength in the camp?

So Zhou Xun asked Xue Yongli for help, asking him to send troops to get closer to him first and control those prisoners first. But in the excitement, Zhou Xun issued that incoherent sentence.

And this "great victory" without any battle once again made Xue Yongli speechless. This is completely a problem for Xue Yongli - if the camp is so easy to deal with, should it change Jihua, first target Li Zicheng, and settle down in Henan?

What a difficult choice! On one side is the established jihua, and on the other side is the great victory that is possible. And at this time, Xue Yongli had no one to discuss, he had to make a decision immediately.

After weighing the pros and cons for a short time, Xue Yongli still decided to maintain the original Jihua, because if it is changed at this time, the Runing Army will face the transfer of troops, and after wasting this time, the situation may change again, and the Runing Army will also face a situation where both ends are not relied on.

Besides, in order to rescue Kaifeng, Zuo Liangyubu and the new governor Ding Qirui have sent troops to help, and Li Zicheng's camp will also face the siege of Ming troops from all walks of life, and there are not many Runing troops. And even if you win a big victory, you will only gain a reputation, and you won't get any benefits, so let's pick the five battalions of the left with a lot of meat first!

However, when this happened, the original Jihua of the Runing Army must be adjusted, so Xue Yongli asked Yao Liang to go to Kaifeng according to Jihua, and let the Shumo Department escort and protect, and his own troops went to Ruzhou first, first to support the captured Zhou Patrol.

"King Chuang! Those Yu people don't have the backbone of our Shaanxi people, and they don't even dare to fight when they meet a Wu butcher, they only know how to flee to us. Let me go out and take the men and horses of our old camp to fight with Butcher Wu! Liu Zongmin shouted loudly.

Knowing that the soldiers and horses of the Runing Army appeared in Ruzhou, Li Zicheng immediately became vigilant, because he was likely to be attacked by the officials and soldiers in the abdomen. So he immediately gathered the main generals and began to make accounts.

At the beginning of the tent, Liu Zongmin complained about the troops that surrendered without a fight, and took the initiative to ask Ying to fight the Runing army. But as soon as he said this, it made the big tent cold, because all the generals who participated in the tent knew that Liu Zongmin had a bad idea.

Niu Jinxing, who was hiding in the corner of the big tent, watched coldly, and it didn't affect Liu Zongmin's performance at all. According to the information that has been obtained, the camp has learned that Fu Zonglong in the north has rushed to the Yellow River with the troops of Beizhili in accordance with Ding Qirui's order. It's just that the Yellow River is flooding, and it can't be crossed for a while.

And Zuo Liangyu is also about to leave Shaanxi, looking at his marching route, he must first enter Henan Mansion to recover Luoyang, and then attack the camp that is attacking and opening the closed city. And Wu Butcher's troops in Runing and Guide are also ready to move, and now they have sent troops to control Ruzhou, so that the camp is suddenly surrounded on all sides.

Therefore, at this time, the first thing to do in the camp is to jump out of the encirclement, and unless it is absolutely necessary, it must not be entangled with the encircled officers and soldiers. Otherwise, after losing its wandering nature, the camp will be besieged in a Jedi by various officers and soldiers.

Niu Jinxing, the word Juming, a native of Da Niuzhuang (now Shiqiao Township) in Pibeili, his father is a county doctor, so he is educated, more than 20 years old in Xiucai, and he is raised in the seventh year of the Apocalypse. He is simple, likes to read, and is familiar with Tianguan, Fengjiao and Sun, Wu's art of war. There is a field in the north of Pibei, and he sets up a museum to teach apprentices on weekdays, and lives a life of only enough food and clothing.

About ten years of Chongzhen, Jin Xing was provoked by a relative surnamed Wang (sons and daughters), but that relative was a local gentry, so Niu Jinxing was falsely accused of resisting taxes and forcibly occupying 18 women, and was "wronged", was dismissed and raised, and served as an errand in the Lu family.

In the winter of the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng led the peasant army into western Henan, and Niu Jinxing, who was oppressed by the government, participated in the camp, and was immediately reused by Li Zicheng. However, at the beginning, Li Zicheng only accepted him because Niu Jinxing was a person, and wanted to buy horse bones for a thousand dollars, but Niu Jinxing immediately showed his outstanding talent.

In the first time he dealt with Li Zicheng, Niu Jinxing suggested to Li Zicheng that "less torture and killing, help the hungry, and collect people's hearts". So Li Zicheng immediately accepted it, and after attacking Luoyang City, he changed the original peasant army's symbolic practice of giving relief to the hungry, and opened the granary, which greatly expanded the shili that broke into the camp. So it has also been greatly reused by Li Zicheng. Therefore, in this account, Niu Venus also joined for the first time.

But now Niu Jinxing knows that his status in the camp is very low, except for Li Zicheng, the generals who broke into the camp don't look down on literati very much, so Niu Jinxing observes the performance of the generals, so that he can make the right decisions in the future.

So after listening to Liu Zongmin's words today, Niu Jinxing knew that he was bluffing. As the number one general in the camp, Liu Zongmin will definitely not be ignorant of basic military common sense. And the reason why he did this was nothing more than to come forward on behalf of Li Zicheng and express that he was not afraid of the Runing Army when he broke into the camp. Therefore, Niu Jinxing secretly wrote down in his heart that Liu Zongmin was by no means as reckless as he appeared on the outside, but a person who understood Li Zicheng's thoughts very well and was as careful as a hair.

"Wave the flag! You say two words! Seeing the cold scene, Li Zicheng ordered the No. 2 general in the camp - He Shaoqi.

"King Chuang! Brother Zong Min said that the road is right, he is going to go to Ruzhou, because Cao Cao is also rushing to join us in the army. But whether to fight or detour, then it is necessary to debate. He Shaoqi was very slippery, and made an answer that did not offend Liu Zongmin.

"Detour? How to wrap around? Can we hundreds of thousands of people go around? Li Guo immediately raised an objection on the side.

"How's that going to go? Is it going to Runing or to Guide? Is it a direct fight with Butcher Wu? "At this time, the rules for breaking into the camp are not particularly strict, so these generals like He Shaoqi don't buy much of Li Guo's juniors.

"It's not that I can't fight, I learned from the spies that Butcher Wu is not in Runing now, and he has taken the main force to Liaodong, just taking advantage of the emptiness to smash his nest. After that, we can go everywhere when we break into the camp. Regarding He Shaoqi's words, Li Guo was very unconvinced.

"Emptiness? Can you send spies into Runing and Guide? We didn't know what was going on there, so we just crashed into it. What kid nonsense. He Shaoqi pouted. (To be continued......)
