These defeated soldiers, who were chased to the sky and had no way to go down to the ground, suddenly encountered the main force of the army to come to their aid, and of course there was reason to cheer. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, Wang Guoliang's next actions made them very frightened.

As the leader of the army, Yi Bang Cai was soon ordered to lead the three hundred soldiers of his department and rushed to the rout soldiers crowded on the mountain road, first shouting and scolding, punching and kicking to drive them to fight reflexively, and those unruly and unruly soldiers who dared to resist and disobey orders, Yi Bang Cai did not hesitate to wave the iron whip in his hand and kill them directly.

It's not that Wang Guoliang is ruthless, it's really a last resort.

What's more, the bloody corpse in front of him now made him angry, he was not angry that Wang Shixuan used the honor of the main general to ignite the fire and blow up the chest, ruining the hard-won good situation, but Wang Shixuan, the main general who led the army, died, and his subordinates fled back with their lives.

Wang Guoliang's anger and Yi Bangcai's ruthlessness soon changed the situation on the mountain road, and the more than 500 defeated soldiers who were lucky not to die and are now crowded on the mountain road were desperate and soon began to fight reflexively.

The narrow mountain road is not good for the officers and soldiers, and it is not good for the thief army, and the huge advantage of the thief army in the sea of people cannot be brought into play at all, because those who can rush to the front and fight side by side are only a dozen or twenty people at a time.

In terms of the combat power of individual soldiers, that is, the killing skills of each soldier, these elite troops in Shanxi Town under Wang Shixuan are much more powerful than the rebels who are thieves.

They were just shocked by the surging crowd of the thief army like a torrent of broken embankments, plus Wang Shixuan and the generals of the battalion who followed Wang Shixuan were suddenly swept away by the explosion of the general's cannon, and the only Liu Guozhen who did not retreat was also killed on the spot, so that these originally very strong soldiers on the edge of Shanxi Town lost their organization and collapsed in an instant.

At this time, sandwiched between the two armies, behind him is the mortal enemy, and in front is the main force of the own army, and further forward will definitely die, and reflexively fighting to the death may also make the merit of the crime, how to choose, naturally do not need to say more about Yibang.

Once these originally lost souls of the defeated soldiers regained their spirits, the thief army that followed them closely behind them would soon be in chaos.

Not long ago, the officers and soldiers who were chased and fled for their lives seemed to have suddenly changed, and one by one they turned back and swooped back one by one.

The dozens of thieves at the forefront were quickly slashed and killed on the mountain road, while the other thieves who followed them had no way to retreat for a while, so they could only fight hard, and every time they killed an officer or soldier who fought reflexively with hatred, they had to die three or five terrified thief troops.

Soon, the sun sets and night falls.

The news of the encounter with the main force of the official army at the front also reached Gao Jinku, who was now cleaning up the camp at the foot of the Huanglu Mountains.

Hearing that his own troops had lost a lot on the mountain road, Gao Jinku immediately sent someone to order the collection of troops and return to the camp, and then looked at the camp in front of him that had been basically destroyed, Gao Jinku knew that he might not be able to recover for a while, so he thought about it, and soon sent someone to pass the order, and directly returned to a few camps on the mountainside to rest.

In the evening of the same day, after the thief army retreated, Wang Guoliang led the Ming army of Shanxi Town under his command to continue to go out along the mountain road and came to the open land where Wang Shixuan had set up his first formation that morning.

On the other side of the dry ravine, the camp that had been repeatedly fought over by the officers and thieves no longer had the appearance of a camp.

Wang Guoliang ordered the front army to use the materials in the camp in front of him to set up a camp on the open ground on this bank of the ravine, so that Yi Bangcai could take his command and the remaining 200 people who had just died to atone for their sins, and stationed in this place, while he and the officers and soldiers on the mountain road behind him, except for sending multiple patrols to the mountains on both sides, rest on the spot for the night.

In the next few days, Wang Guoliang did nothing else, the only thing he did was to direct his soldiers to build a strong camp on both sides of the dry riverbed, and arrange for his soldiers to cut down trees on the mountains on both sides of the valley under his control, and make a large number of horses and fences.

Then he sent people to dig an oval-shaped long trench from the foot of the Huanglu Ridge to the mountain pass controlled by the army, and buried a large number of temporary horses and fences into the excavated earth wall to consolidate and reinforce.

After entering May, Wang Guoliang and his more than 3,000 soldiers finally had a strong camp enough to accommodate thousands of soldiers at the foot of the Huanglu Mountains, and then they were relieved.

Although Huanglu Pass is still high and unreachable, after all, he has advanced from Jinsuo Pass for more than 20 miles, advanced to Huanglu Pass, and established a civil engineering city under Huanglu Pass that is enough to hold on, which can be regarded as an explanation.

Wang Guoliang was heartbroken for the death of the two fierce generals under his command, and sent people to report the fierce battle under Huangluling to Zhang Xiao, the governor of Shanxi, and Li Banghua, the minister of military aircraft, and Li Banghua, the minister of military aircraft, and at the same time, he also reported the death and cause of death of Wang Shixuan, the deputy general of Shanxi Town, and Liu Guozhen, the general of Jinsuoguan, to Zhang Xiao and Li Banghua, and asked the court to praise Wang Shixuan and Liu Guozhen for their deaths.

At the same time, because of the hot weather, Wang Guoliang asked people to cut down trees on the spot, make coffins, and bury Wang Shixuan and Liu Guozhen on the spot on the top of the mountain opposite Huangluling, and set up a stele and carved stone in front of Huangluling, so that their souls after death could witness with their own eyes that the Ming army of Shanxi Town would one day attack Huangluling and avenge them.

Liu Guozhen's body was not taken away by the thieves, nor was it destroyed by the thieves, except for a dozen fatal wounds on the front chest and back under the ribs, the head and limbs were still intact.

Although he killed and injured a large number of thieves in battle, his god-like bravery also made Gao Jinku very admired, and even more made those thieves who had never seen such a character worship as gods.

After his death, his body was placed on a wooden plank, and the clothes and armor on his body were also preserved, except for the Qi knife.

Of course, this kind of treatment seems to be nothing at first, but the subsequent discovery of the official army made them feel the difference in the treatment of Liu Guozhen's body by the thief army.

Because the weapons, armor, and even clothes, shoes, and hats of the nearly 2,000 officers and soldiers who died here were stripped away, and many dead Ming soldiers were abandoned naked in the ravines.

After burying Wang Shixuan and Liuguo Town, and also focusing on the burial of all the soldiers of Shanxi Town Ming who died under the Huanglu Ridge, Wang Guoliang's hesitant problem was committed again, and for a few days, the army was stationed under the Huanglu Ridge, in addition to the fortifications that never stopped, it was always to prevent the thieves on the Huanglu Ridge from coming down to rob the camp.

For the official army to camp at the foot of the mountain, the "king of the whole world" Wu Yangui is not without ideas, he also ordered the "Flying Tiger" Gao Jinku several times to lead his troops down the mountain to attack as he did last time, but after Gao Jinku tried once, he never dared to go down the mountain again.

It's not that he can't break through the camp of the official army, but that he has no chance to get close to the camp of the official army at all.

Because Wang Guoliang concentrated more than 50 small and medium-sized artillery pieces of all kinds on the west side of the entire walled city this time, with the protection of the earthen city fence, the artillery positions could be calmly arranged without worrying about the surprise attack of the thief army.

Also because of the protection of this walled city, Wang Guoliang was not as eager to attack Huangluling as Wang Shixuan, or capture the thief camp halfway up the mountain.

Therefore, he does not have to be like Wang Shixuan, hoping to constantly increase the range of artillery.

Although it was difficult for the Liang Division of the Kingdom to attack Huangluling, it was not easy for the Flying Tiger Gao Jinku Division's thief army to go down the mountain to attack this official army walled city like last time.

Because of the range of the official artillery, although it still could not hit his camp, if he wanted to lead the army down the mountain, he had to pass through a death zone that could be covered by the official artillery.

So he only tried once, and after seeing the power of the official artillery, he left behind more than 200 dead and wounded thieves, and he didn't dare to make a second attempt.

After all, flesh and blood are completely vulnerable in front of steel projectiles.

This also made him regret it very much, the retreat was hasty, and the ready-made artillery of the officers and soldiers under the mountain did not have time to carry it up the mountain.
