Qian Hong was indeed fighting for Jingxing Pass in recent days. Although he did not take Jingxing Pass, he was still a little impressed. However, this time Qian Hong strictly followed Cao Liang's orders. Cao Liang's orders only made him launch a feint attack on Bingxing Pass, requiring them to maintain restraint and not expand the scale of the war. Therefore, even if Qian Hong wished to take Jingxing Pass in one breath, he would not dare to cross this red line easily.

However, after Lu Zhao's reinforcements arrived at Jingxing Pass, he really let Qian Hong attack, and he might not be able to get down to Jingxing Pass. After all, a dangerous pass like Jingxing Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. With the support of reinforcements, his defense has increased a lot. With the strength of the Left Guard and Right Guard, he really cannot get down to Jingxing Pass.

Qian Hong was eager to avenge a single arrow, but this wish was fulfilled. After all, Lu Zhao did not succeed in attacking Weize Pass. This time he attacked Jingxing Pass, killed a large number of Jizhou troops, and released a breath of turbid air in his heart. The two sides were even.

At this time, Cao Liang's latest order was conveyed, asking them to withdraw their troops immediately, and Qian Hong was just taking advantage of the situation. Anyway, if he continued to fight, he would not get much advantage.

So the Zuoweiying and the Youweiyingying camps were camping overnight and returned to Weize Pass.

Faced with the offensive of the Bingzhou Army, Lu Zhao was really worried. Outside Bingxing Pass, the Bingzhou Army had dozens of miles of battalion, and there were many flags. Especially Cao Liang's big flag, which put a lot of pressure on Lu Zhao. Although he had never seen Cao Liang show up since he arrived at Jingxing Pass, he had never seen Cao Liang show up, but who is the name of a person, the shadow of a tree, and who is Cao Liang? He was the existence of defeating Sima Yi. Lu Zhao asked himself that he did not have the ability to compare with Sima Yi. Sima Yi was all defeated generals, let alone him.

The Bingzhou Army's offensive was quite fierce, and it used heavy equipment such as catapults and crossbows, causing great casualties to the Jizhou Army guarding the city. Fortunately, Lu Zhao brought a lot of troops from Yecheng this time, which was enough to make up for the loss.

It was a fear to think about it. Fortunately, he rescued him in time. Otherwise, it was hard to say whether Jingxing Pass could be saved. Once Jingxing Pass was lost, the vast Central Plains of Jizhou would be almost without any danger. Lu Zhao didn't know how he would deal with it when it really came.

Defending Jingxing Pass is the key to defending Jizhou. Lu Zhao did not dare to slacken at all. He would come to the city to command the battle every day and lead the way. Lu Zhao was over fifty years old, but he was indeed very hard-working to defend Jingxing Pass.

Under the leadership of Lu Zhao, the Jizhou army united as one and strictly guarded the city to ensure that Jingxing Pass was not lost.

Until yesterday, the offensive momentum of the Bingzhou army did not decline. The two sides fought fiercely until the sunset, and then they stopped the battle.

In the early morning of the next day, Lu Zhao got up very early and was the first to climb to the city in the cold wind. He was fully prepared to face the battle and believed that this day would be spent in fierce battle again, and the Jizhou army could still hold on until the end.

However, until sunrise, there was no movement in the Bingzhou Army's camp, and there was no sign of Bingzhou Army going to fight. Lu Zhao couldn't help but have a look of confusion. In recent days, the Bingzhou Army's offensive has been very fierce, so why has it suddenly stopped today?

Could it be that the Bingzhou Army had any conspiracy? It deliberately let the defenders relax and then catch them off guard?

Lu Zhao did not dare to relax his vigilance, so that the troops guarding the city continued to maintain a high degree of vigilance and were ready to enter the battle at any time. At the same time, he also closely monitored the movements in the Bingzhou Army camp.

However, it was not until the sun was over and the sun was about to understand that there was no sign of the Bingzhou army going to fight. Only then did Lu Zhao realize that something was wrong.

The Bingzhou Army camp was too calm and silent. Apart from the camp and flags, there seemed to be no one to see. Isn’t this normal?

So Lu Zhao sent several scouts to inquire. In order to prevent the sudden sneak attack in Bingzhou, he did not even open the city gate, but put down a few hanging baskets and hung these scouts.

It is unrealistic to send a large army out of the city, as it is easy to be ambushed by the Bingzhou army. If a few scouts are sent, even if they are lost, it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

The scouts quickly arrived at the Bingzhou Army's camp. They even planned to be shot to death by arrows. However, when they arrived in front of the Bingzhou Army, there was no sound inside and there was no movement at all. They plucked up their courage to enter the camp, and then they found that the entire camp was empty, and the Bingzhou Army had left without a trace at some point.

The scouts were worried, and they checked the Bingzhou Army camp inside and outside, and even checked several miles around them. Sure enough, they still did not find any figure of the Bingzhou Army. So they hurried back to Guanzhong and reported the situation to Lu Zhao.

When Lu Zhao heard the news, his face suddenly changed. He had a great move to escape! No wonder there was no movement in the Bingzhou military camp. It turned out that they had retreated overnight, leaving only the next empty camp and countless flags.

But what Lu Zhao couldn't understand was that the Bingzhou army mobilized so many troops this time, and only fought for a few days. With such a retreat, such a slight start, it was really not like Cao Liang's combat style!

If Jingxing Pass is strictly defending and impeccable, and the Bingzhou army fails to defeat it repeatedly, there may be a possibility of retreating, but the current situation is not the case. It is obvious that the Bingzhou army's offensive was still very fierce yesterday, and the pressure on the defenders was quite high. No commanding general could retreat like this when he clearly had an advantage in siege operations.

If something goes wrong, it is a monster. There must be some mystery here, but Lu Zhao is puzzled. If the Bingzhou Army deliberately withdraws its troops and wants to lure Lu Zhao to attack, it should not use this way of escape, but should retreat with great fanfare. In this way, it disappeared without a trace. Even if Lu Zhao wants to pursue, he will not find the direction.

Lu Zhao thought about it all the time, but was confused. The Bingzhou Army's series of operations were so incredible.

There was nothing I could do if I couldn't figure it out. Lu Zhao could only defend Jingxing Pass to keep up with the change. Anyway, if the Bingzhou Army's target was Jingxing Pass, they would definitely kill him back.

After waiting for a few days, there was still no news from Weizeguan, but there was news from Guangchang, and the news was extremely explosive, Guangchang was lost!

Only then did Lu Zhao realize that he had been fooled and was hit by Cao Liang's plan to attack the east and west.
