軍校王建及又陳方略，嗣昭與建及分兵於土山南北為掎角，汴軍懼，下山，因縱軍擊之，俘斬三萬級，由是莊宗之軍復振。 The officer Wang Jianji offered a plan as well. Sizhao and Jianji divided their forces north and south of Tushan in a pincer. The Bian troops, alarmed, came down the mountain, and our army fell upon them, killing and capturing thirty thousand. From that point Zhuangzong's army rallied again.
