    Dorgon's order to Zu Dashou was to do everything possible to hold back the Datong Army in the middle battlefield and prevent the Datong Army from rushing to help Shangqiu.

    Therefore, either Xihua County will be stuck, or Fugou County will be stuck.

    Compared with hundreds of years later, the rivers in Henan in the Ming Dynasty changed greatly, mainly caused by the diversion of the Yellow River.  Blocking the two counties of Xihua and Fugou, the sixth and seventh divisions of the Datong Army could not march quickly along the river, but could only walk slowly by land, and had to cross the river several times on the way.

    Zu Dashou could not retreat, at most he could retreat to Fugou, if he retreated to Xuzhou, it would be a violation of the military order.

    A soldier came to report: "Dutong, Yuan Shizhong has led troops to Fugou, but he doesn't want to continue to join the army."

    Although Zu Dashou did not confer any title, he was appointed as the commander of the Zhenghuang Banner Han Army.  In other words, the Zhenghuang Banner Han Army is under his control, and it is one of the highest military positions in the Eight Banners of the Han Army.

    Zu Dashou frowned and said: "This person may turn against him!"

    Wu Sangui said: "He is a native of Henan, and he was enshrined as Marquis of Shunyi by the Qing Dynasty. What else can he turn against? Can Emperor Zhao of Nanjing enshrine him as Marquis?"

    "Well, who can say for sure?" Zu Dashou shook his head and sighed.

    Historically, there have been many stories about Yuan Shizhong.  For example, Li Zicheng married his adopted daughter to him, but Yuan Shizhong abducted Li Zicheng's daughter.  Some historical materials also record that Yuan Shizhong's troops did not kill civilians, but rescued them, and they were called "Buddhist Soldiers".  He even defeated the small group of the Eight Banners Army who entered the customs and plundered, killed 50 Tartars, and refused to accept the goods from the Tartars.

    It is also said that Li Zicheng was afraid of Yuan Shizhong, first squeezed out, then flanked, and finally killed Yuan Shizhong and merged his tribe.

    In fact, it's not that exciting. Yuan Shizhong's troops are indeed in good military discipline.  It once expanded to tens of thousands of people, but suffered successive defeats and was helped by Li Zicheng.  Therefore, Yuan Shizhong obeyed Li Zicheng's orders, but maintained his independence, and used Li Zicheng's prestige to develop his power.

    The imperial court sent people to appease, and Li Zicheng also sent people to appease.

    Yuan Shizhong chose the imperial court and killed Li Zicheng's envoy.  Li Zicheng was furious, and led his troops to kill Yuan Shizhong!

    Before Yuan Shizhong was ordered to guard against the Seventh Division, when the Seventh Division of the Datong Army moved, he was recruited by Zu Dashou to join forces.  As a result, when this guy walked to Fugou County, he suddenly stopped moving, and even recruited refugees as soldiers along the way. By this time, the number of soldiers had expanded to more than 30,000.

    Once Yuan Shizhong chose to defect, it would be tantamount to blocking Zu Dashou's retreat.

    Zu Dashou was frightened and uneasy, so he sent a scholar named Gong Yijie to Fugou County to appease Yuan Shizhong.

    After seeing Yuan Shizhong, Gong Yijie asked, "Why did Lord Hou stop fighting?"

    Yuan Shizhong explained: "The soldiers in the army are often sick and plagued. If they go to Xihua County to join forces with the ancestral capital, the soldiers of the ancestral capital may also be infected with the plague."

    Gong Yijie said: "The enemy's army is about to arrive, and it's time to use troops. A little plague is nothing to worry about. Please lead the troops there immediately."

    "Ah, many of my subordinates are infected with the disease." Yuan Shizhong sighed.

    Gong Yijie tried hard to persuade: "Master Hou, the North-South War is the time to serve the country. Lord Hou stops the army, and he will be held accountable after the war. This is the worst policy. Does Lord Hou think that the puppet soldiers won my victory?"  Qing Eight Banners?"

    "Hey, it's hard to say." Yuan Shizhong suddenly laughed.

    Gong Yijie said in horror: "Why did Lord Hou say such a thing?"

    Yuan Shizhong did not explain, and said with a sneer: "I wanted to continue to wait and see, but you reminded me. Since I must be pursued by the Tartars, why not do the opposite now and prevent Dorgon from coming back alive? Someone is here!"

    "Here!" A few soldiers came in.

    Yuan Shizhong said: "Behead this man and send him to the Datong Army. Say that I have raised troops against the Qing Dynasty, occupied Fugou, and cut off Zu Dashou's retreat!"

    "Think twice, Lord HouThink twice, Lord Hou" Gong Yijie yelled and was dragged out.

    Yuan Shizhong was born in a family of small landlords. He also read books when he was a child. He is strong and strong, and he has practiced some martial arts since he was a child.

    In Henan in the late Ming Dynasty, even small landlords would not be able to survive if they encountered corrupt officials.

    Yuan Shizhong's family first became self-cultivated farmers, and gradually became tenant farmers.  Being constantly pressed by the government, his family starved to death one after another, so he had to flee to Kaizhou as a beggar.

    Historically, this person rose up in rebellion. Due to his good military discipline, the people enthusiastically took refuge in him, and quickly stood out among the many rebels. In his heyday, he had an army of 300,000.

    Yuan Shizhong's thinking mode is biased towards scholars. He does not want to be a traitor, and always wants to recruit security and become a regular.

    After surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, Yuan Shizhong always felt uncomfortable.

    ?Because the Manchu Qing exploited the common people very muchThe infantry of the Datong Army marched towards Taikang County in a hurry.

    Cao Bianjiao and Wei Guoxiang, two cavalry generals, each led 2,500 dragoons to drive away Wu Sangui's cavalry.

    Guan Ning's iron cavalry has long been disabled and was once divided into three parts.  Some were transferred to the customs to suppress the Northwest rogues; some were assigned to Zu Dashou; and some were assigned to Wu Sangui.

    All previous battles, constant consumption.

    Although Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui still have cavalry under their command, they are no longer the real Guanning iron cavalry, but more similar to the family cavalry of the Ming border general.

    At this moment, Wu Sangui commanded more than 4,000 cavalry, about 2,000 cavalry are considered elite, and the rest are miscellaneous cards under the command of the generals.

    Facing the five thousand dragoons, Wu Sangui dispersed and harassed, throwing bows and arrows non-stop.

    After shooting a few arrows, he stopped shooting.

    If you are too far away, you will not be able to shoot, and if you are too close, you will be shot.

    Wu Sangui wanted to go around and attack the big synchronous pawns who were stripped of their armor and marching in a hurry.  The dragoons also quickly followed to protect the safety of friendly troops and prevent enemy cavalry from approaching.

    Although Jiang Dashan had a mount, he was running with the soldiers at the moment. He shouted: "Don't worry about those enemy horses, just run forward!"

    More than ten thousand soldiers at the same time really ignored Wu Sangui, as if they couldn't see the enemy cavalry, they trotted forward with their weapons in the direction of Taikang.

    The two armies were tens of miles apart, and the Datong army planned to pursue them on foot.  The genius remembers the address of this site in a second.
