"Brother-in-law, why are you still hesitating? Taking advantage of the fact that the Bingzhou Army has not yet established a stable foothold, I quickly sent troops to take back Feihu Pass. If it is too late, there will be no chance." Ma Yuan urged urgently.

Lin Li snorted coldly and said, "Do you think this prison is so easy to repair? The reason why the Bingzhou Army dared to attack must be fully prepared. Now that Feihu Pass is completely in danger, I will bring my reckless land at this time, wouldn't I just fall into the trap? You should retreat, I will make a decision."

After driving Ma Yuan away, Lin Li immediately ordered the four gates of Guangchang to be closed, and all the troops immediately climbed the city wall to prepare for battle. At the same time, they sent fast horses to report Guangchang's situation to General Lu Zhao, the Zhenbei, and requested him to send troops to support him.

Lin Li is still a relatively cautious person, otherwise Lu Zhao would not have sent him to guard Guangchang. It was just that he was nepotism, which would lead to the easy loss of Feihu Pass. However, Lin Li did not attack rashly. Feihu Pass guarded Feihu Pass because of the danger. If he lost the danger, it would be useless even if he sent more troops to pass.

What's more, he didn't have many troops in his hands. If he had left all his nest, Guangchang would fall to the point where there was no soldiers to defend, so he simply gave up the idea of ​​regaining Feihu Pass and guarded Guangchang City with all his heart, waiting for Lu Zhao's reinforcements.

After Wang Jin easily captured Feihu Pass, he immediately reported to Yu Yanghu, and Yang Hu soon led the army to arrive. Wang Jin suggested that the army take a short rest at Feihu Pass, and perhaps the Jizhou army would make a comeback and launch a counterattack. The Bingzhou army took this opportunity to give him a head-on attack.

Yang Hu looked at the terrain of Feihu Pass and said, "The dangers of Feihu Pass are all in Feihu Pass. Now Feihu Pass is gained by us. If the Jizhou army wants to counterattack, it will be a weak attack. If Lin Li is well-versed in military tactics, he will definitely not dare to attack rashly. Defending Guangchang to the death is the best choice. Pass the order, march quickly, and attack Guangchang City immediately without giving the enemy a chance to breathe."

Yang Hu's judgment was correct. When the Bingzhou army led its troops eastward and rushed to Guangchang City in one breath, it found that the four gates of Guangchang City had been closed, and the defenders were ready for battle. Not only did they show no signs of leaving the city, but they instead acted like they were guarding the city with strict precautions.

Yang Hu didn't know anything, and even omitted the method of going to the city to curse the formation and directly ordered the infantry battalion to start siege the city. It was obvious that Yang Hu had already seen Lin Li defending Guangchang to the death. At this time, he called for the formation and lured Lin Li to fight, which was almost in vain. In order to fight quickly, Yang Hu launched his full strength to attack the city as soon as he arrived at the city.

Since the infantry battalion was lightly equipped, the heavy equipment was behind and did not come with the army. Now the siege equipment that the infantry battalion could use was only a simple ladder. However, Yang Hu did not suspend the attack because the siege equipment was not arrived. Instead, he ordered the launch of ant siege and took Guangchang as early as possible.

The importance of taking Guangchang is self-evident. As long as Guangchang is taken, the East Advance Corps of the Bingzhou Army can smoothly exit the Flying Fox Path. If it is blocked on the narrow Flying Fox Path, no matter how many troops are, they will not be able to operate.

The defenders of Guangchang City are not afraid, but Yang Hu is more worried about Lu Zhao's reinforcements. If Lu Zhao comes to support quickly, the situation will inevitably become serious. As long as Guangchang is captured as soon as possible, the passiveness can be transformed into activeness.

Although the conditions for siege were very simple, the momentum of the siege of the infantry battalion was not affected. They launched a charge without fear of death and launched wave after wave of attacks on Guangchang City.

The sword and shield soldiers were the main force of the siege. They held shields one by one, and under the cover of the archers, they climbed the ladder with all their might and rushed towards the top of the city. Their morale was very high, and the violent impact put a lot of pressure on the defenders of Guangchang City.

Lin Li's face turned pale. He had already predicted that the attack of Bingzhou Army was planned and prepared, so he did not dare to attack rashly and adopted a stable strategy. However, he did not expect that Bingzhou's offensive was so fierce. The entire army under the city swarmed in like locusts and ants, which made his scalp feel a little numb.

However, Lin Li was a man who had experienced the battle formation at all and was not overwhelmed by the momentum of the Bingzhou Army. He personally took an arrow and stood on the Guan Building, commanding the battle himself.

With the backbone like the main general, the defenders of Guangchang City are naturally strong in fighting spirit. The battle of the city originally means that the defenders have advantages. As long as the defenders' fighting spirit does not collapse, they will still have the power to fight. Therefore, although the infantry battalion has the advantage in military strength, the defenders are defending tenaciously with the strong city. The two sides fought for a long time and fell into a stalemate.

Lin Li's letter of help was quickly delivered to Lu Zhao, who was on the front line of Jingxing Pass.

At this time, Jingxing Pass was in full swing, and the Bingzhou Army's offensive was quite fierce. Even if Lu Zhao personally led the army to aid, the Bingzhou Army showed no sign of retreat. Instead, the attack became even more intense. Lu Zhao had to respond with all his strength, strictly guard against the enemy, and ensure that Jingxing Pass was not lost.

At this moment, he suddenly received an emergency from Guangchang. Lu Zhao couldn't help but be stunned. He was really confused about the strategic intentions of the Bingzhou army. He attacked Jizhou according to the normal military route. Jingxing was the first choice. Feihu Zhi was more biased. It was more appropriate to attack Youzhou. It would be a bit far away to attack Jizhou. Even if he captured Guangchang, it would be difficult to threaten the safety of Jizhou.

Jingxing is different. Once Jingxing Pass is lost, the entire Jizhou gate will be opened. Therefore, Jingxing Pass is the top priority to defend against Jizhou. Lu Zhao almost concentrated all the troops that Jizhou could mobilize to Jingxing Pass to ensure that Jingxing Pass is not lost.

But at this time, the Bingzhou army suddenly attacked Guangchang, and Lu Zhao was a little confused. The fierce battle at Jingxing Pass was in full swing. The Bingzhou army's actions were too abnormal. Even if they took Guangchang, it would be difficult for them to threaten Jizhou for the time being.

This is clearly Cao Liang's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, trying to weaken the garrison power of Jingxing Pass. Well, this cannot be fooled. The defense of Jingxing Pass is the most important thing.

The current battle situation is very stalemate. If one step is wrong, it will lose all the way. Jizhou's troops are limited. If Bingzhou attacks with all its might, Lu Zhao will not be able to reach it at all. He has already asked Sima's army for reinforcements, but even if Sima's army sends reinforcements, it will take some time, so Lu Zhao must defend it during this period.
