In early January 1362, the Tard-Venus invaded Forez and Meschin held the priory of Estivareilles. King John II commissioned Count Jacques de Bourbon and to raise an army to put down the "Free Companies" under the informal leadership of Petit Meschin before they could overrun Burgundy. Bourbon and Tancarville gathered their army at Brignais. The French King's forces were besieging the town of Brignais, which had been seized by the Companies in March as an operating base. Never dreaming that the companies would dare challenge them in the open the Royal forces took few steps to secure their camp and when the companies attacked that morning of 6 April 1362 they were taken completely by surprise. In the battle that followed the government army was routed and James Bourbon and his oldest son were mortally wounded. Le Petit Meschin was taken prisoner in 1368, by the , , on 11 May 1369.
