Speaking of which, while setting up manpower defense, Wang Jiexiu sent envoys to ask for help from all over the place.

The envoy of Wang left the Wang family courtyard in Dajin Village, Jiexiu, and walked in three directions.

One way to the north, one way to the west, and one way to the south.

To the north, we naturally informed the Ji family and the Hou family, to the west, we informed Zhang Sanbai and others, and to the south, we informed the rebels who informed the direction of Lingshi.

Not to mention the other way, let’s talk about the envoy of Wang’s family who had just left Dajin Village thirty miles south and rushed to the spirit stone realm.

But I saw the bright lights in front of me, the crowds of people, and the sounds of fighting and shouting everywhere, and I was shocked.

It turned out that Wang Sheng lost Jiexiu City and had to flee south to the spirit stone.

When he passed by the spiritual stone entrance at the junction of Jiexiu and the spirit stone, he saw two mountains standing together, which was quite steep.

He couldn't help but think: "I lost Jie Xiucheng. If I go back like this, I may be punished by King Shun."

"I see that this place is dangerous, so it is the place that Jiexiu must pass to the direction of Pingyang. If he can stay here, he can make up for his mistakes."

Thinking of this, Wang Sheng gathered the defeated army and occupied the inspection department to guard the terrain.

Sure enough, after Ajige occupied Jiexiu City, his first reaction was to send troops south to capture Lingshi City.

Speaking of which, the prince Yang Guli led two thousand elite soldiers and separated from Mandarhan and Fan Yongdou, he quickly rushed toward the direction of the spirit stone, and just ran into Wang Sheng's troops who were defending here.

When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous.

To be honest, Wang Sheng was originally a hero in Yuzhou, and his reputation was not inferior to Ren Chen, but his troops were not strong.

Later, Ren Chen was defeated and died, and Wang Sheng defected to Li Jiyu.

As a result, Li Jiyu was not a talented person. Wang Sheng put him under his command for two years, but he did not make any name for himself in the end.

It was not until later that he followed Zhang Shun and sent staff and generals to reorganize a battalion of troops.

However, his battalion was newly built and had not experienced a bloody battle.

Therefore, when they are in line to fight against the enemy, they can still behave properly. If they are in a group to fight, they are not as far away as other powerful troops.

This is also the main reason why Wang Sheng's troops scattered and abandoned the city and fled after the Fan family opened the city gate.

However, if Wang Sheng's troops were not afraid of the Later Jin soldiers if they were defending the city.

Therefore, when Wang Sheng and his staff saw the terrain of the Lingshikou, they couldn't help but smile happily.

The so-called Lingshikou is the north entrance of Rat and Bird Valley, so the location of Lengquan Pass.

The area "outside the pass, there are plains and wildernesses, and when entering the pass, the left and right rivers are actually the throat of the north and south." It is the junction of the Luliang Mountains and the Taiyue Mountains, and it is the most steep.

If the Later Jin soldiers coming from the north want to enter the spiritual stone territory, they must first capture this place before they can go south.

Wang Sheng then deployed troops in the Inspection Office, and placed only seven or eight remaining artillery pieces on the mountain east of the Inspection Office to wait for the Later Jin soldiers.

After Na Yangguli led the Later Jin soldiers to arrive, how could he know that this was the remnant of Wang Sheng’s troops?

It was also said that the guards of the inspectors were guarding this place, so he ordered only one Niu Luezhen to lead more than a hundred people to attack the city.

After Niu Lu'er received the military order, he put his clothes neatly and secretly touched the inspection city.

Who would have thought that when he just approached the inspection city, the fire suddenly lit up, and two or three hundred musketeers appeared on the city and shot "bang bang bang" and killed twenty or thirty Later Jin soldiers on the spot.

"Zhi Niang, damn barbarian!" Yang Guli was so angry that he couldn't help but curse.

What kind of archers can withstand the attack of Niulu of the Later Jin Dynasty? It is obvious that these "damn barbarians" have set up defense lines here.

"Dog Tartar, I played with you before, but I couldn't play with you. This time I'm ready, just come and attack!" Wang Sheng couldn't help laughing when he saw that he had made a profit.

"This is..." Yangguli frowned when he heard this. Although he didn't know the person in front of him called Wang Sheng, he also guessed the other party's identity and couldn't help but sneer, "How dare you bark with your defeated general?"

"And put on a quilt and attack this city!"

Afterwards, Yangguli sent another Niulu to the watered quilt and then touched the inspector's city.

Since the last time I suffered a loss from rebel arms outside Taiyuan City, the "quilt tactic" has become the basic tactic of the Ajige tribe of the Later Jin Dynasty.

Wang Sheng's troops stayed on the second line and had never participated in the Taiyuan War. How could they know that their opponents had such a method?

Sure enough, another fire gun was shot, but the other party was almost unscathed and could not penetrate the wet quilt and iron armor.

"What's going on?" Wang Sheng was stunned when he saw this, and didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Hurry, fire the fire!" The staff officer beside him was anxious when he saw this and couldn't help but remind him quickly.

"No matter what tricks he is, can he resist artillery?"

Wang Sheng suddenly realized when he heard this, and quickly gave an order to order the cannons on the mountain to the east to fire.

The gunners on the mountain were too far away, and they could not see the enemy's location clearly.

He just saw a fire outside the inspection city, and let the gunners blast over.

The shooting of the Rebel Cannon was not important, and the soldiers of the Later Jin attacked the city suffered a great loss.

It turned out that after many battles with the Ming army and the rebels, the Later Jin soldiers, who were deeply affected by artillery, had no solutions.

Among them, the horizontal elongation of the formation and the vertical compression of the formation, so that the queue develops in the horizontal direction are one of the changes in the Jin army's formation in recent years.

Because this type of horizontal formation is thin, even if it is penetrated by enemy artillery, it will not cause too much damage.

But Yangguli has a lot of materials, but he did not expect that due to Zhang Shun's "cross firepower" theory, the gunners trained by the Rebels like to bombard the enemy from both sides.

The river and the mountain outside the Lingshikou are left and right, so it is impossible to perfectly realize the "cross" firepower theory, but half of it can still be achieved.

And "this half" is mounted on the mountain east of the inspection department, with the ballistic parallel to the city wall on the front of the inspection department.

But as soon as the cannon was opened, it immediately strung up the Later Jin soldiers who were sieging the city from east to west like a gourd.

Often, a shell hit can lead to seven or eight soldiers.

Even a little unlucky, the rebels even raided more than 20 people.

What kind of quilt and iron armor is no different from that of Zhihu in front of a ten-pound iron bullet.

"Go up the mountain, go up the mountain!" Seeing that the losses were so heavy, Yang Guli was anxious and couldn't help but wear neatly to lead his soldiers to attack the rebel artillery positions.

When he heard this, he couldn't help but feel anxious and quickly pulled him, "Don't stop being angry, and the prince's anger is now dark and the mountain is steep and the road is blocked. How can I make it happen?"

"In our opinion, we have not waited for dawn. We can see the road clearly and then go up the mountain!"
