The next day, Qian Xiaoxing sent troops to surround Qingyu City just like he used smoke to attack the city last time. Last time in Qingyu City, Sima Chuchu had only 5,000 guards, and this time there were more than 20,000 people, which increased the difficulty. However, using the smoke strategy, even if Sima Chuchu has many people, it would be useless...

Qian Xiaoxing looked at the wind direction and pulled the items that caused fire and smoke to the south gate. Seeing that Qian Xiaoxing was about to use the same trick again, Sima Chuchu stood on the city wall and smiled and said, "Qian Xiaoxing, do you think I would be so stupid? If you capture it once, you can capture it again?"

"I think you are so stupid! After I capture you, you will feel good!" Qian Xiaoxing looked at the city wall. The guards were no different from last time, so he waved his hand and commanded them. The soldiers brought the straw branches over and piled them up by the moat.

"Light!" Qian Xiaoxing gave the order, and a row of firewood piles beside the city wall immediately started to burn. The weather was originally hot, and the flames made people sweat even more.

"Sima Chuchu, it's still time for you to surrender now!" Qian Xiaoxing gave an ultimatum.

On the city wall, Sima Chuchu replied: "Haha, you'll know if you come and try it."

Seeing that Sima Chuchu was unwilling to die from the Yellow River, Qian Xiaoxing was very helpless towards him and ordered: "Splash water and smoke!"

The water was specially made, not only smoked, but also smelled like a stinking smell. The soldiers of the Si army immediately followed the order and poured the water from the wooden barrel onto the pile of firewood.

The open flames were extinguished, and the firewood piles emitted strong black smoke. Seeing the black smoke rising and slowly floating towards the city wall, Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but feel proud. This smoked plan seemed to be invincible and no one could break it.

However, when suddenly seeing the actions on the city wall, Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but open his mouth wide in surprise.

I saw a lot of thick bamboos coming out of the walls of Qingyu City, each with a length of more than three meters. Sima Chuchu gave the order: "Shoot!"

I saw that water droplets were sprinkled on the city wall. It turned out that the middle of the bamboos had been hollowed out and filled with water. I used a pole behind it and poked forward hard and sprayed the water inside out through the small hole in the front.

There are many water guns made of these bamboos. The sprayed water is poured onto the smoked firewood pile, which immediately makes the firewood pile soaked, and no trace of Mars or black smoke can be emitted.

"Ah!" Qian Xiaoxing looked at the pile of firewood that was soaked in water, and looked at Sima Chuchu's proud smile on the city wall, and his heart was so angry.

Seeing Qian Xiaoxing's depressed look, Sima Chuchu couldn't help but smile and said, "Qian Xiaoxing, you have nothing to do this time. If you apologize to me, I will let you into the city."

"Apology? What did I do wrong?" Qian Xiaoxing replied in confusion.

Sima Chuchu had no choice but to remind him: "You said you wanted to rape me in full view of everyone. You must apologize to me in front of so many people, otherwise I and you will never end up!"

Qian Xiaoxing finally understood that it was for this reason. It seems that women want face, but men also want face. She apologized when she said she apologized. It was not too embarrassing. After thinking about it, she couldn't help but answer: "Why did I apologize? I said I wanted to rape you. It's my truth. I was right."

"You! Big Hooligan!" Sima Chuchu was furious and ordered: "Shoot him for me!" Seeing the soldier raising his bow and arrow, he hurriedly said: "Stop shooting him with a water gun!"

All the water guns on the city wall shot Qian Xiaoxing wildly. Qian Xiaoxing was soaked and was as embarrassed as a cock. Seeing Sima Chuchu laughing happily, she shouted: "Sima Chuchu, wait, I won't catch you, and I will circle you, and I won't be Qian!"

Sima Chuchu ridiculed Qian Xiaoxing with a grimace. The victory at this moment made her feel very happy. Seeing Qian Xiaoxing’s embarrassing look, she didn’t know why she felt very accomplished.

If he had to attack Qingyu City, it would only be cheaper for Hu Guo. Qian Xiaoxing still remained rational in his heart. Although he was very angry, he led his army to retreat.

Back to the camp, after taking a shower and changing his clothes, Lu Shengzhong came over. Qian Xiaoxing knew that Lu Shengzhong was going to ask, so he spoke first: "Sima Chuchu and I have been experiencing it, and they just don't let us enter the city, and the smoke method will be broken by her."

"I already know this. I'm not looking for you for this." Lu Shengzhong took a piece of paper in his hand and said, "Just sending information from Hu State, the Hu army has gathered 70,000 troops to come to us. We will be here in about three days."

Qian Xiaoxing took the paper and looked at it. It was written in detail. The content was probably that the Hu army was led by Hu King Hu Kan, including 10,000 King Wu Division, 50,000 new recruits, and 10,000 imperial guards. Qian Xiaoxing said: "At the time, our army had only 20,000 people, and now we don't have to be afraid of them. Let's die if we come."

"I'm afraid, but if the matter in Qingyu City is not solved, we will not be able to occupy this military important place, and it will be inconvenient to act at that time." Lu Shengzhong analyzed.

Qian Xiaoxing nodded and said, "It is necessary to solve it as soon as possible, but this Sima Chuchu is really a headache. I don't understand why Zheng Tong listened to her so much."

Lu Shengzhong couldn't help but say, "Or, let Zheng Chang go and persuade him. As long as Zheng Tong is persuaded, Sima Chuchu wants to fight against us, and Zheng Tong will not support him."

"You can try it, I'll make something and put some pressure on Zheng Tong." Qian Xiaoxing smiled sly.

When Lu Shengzhong saw Qian Xiaoxing's smile like this, he knew he had a bad idea and couldn't help but ask: "What's it?"

Qian Xiaoxing said something in Lu Shengzhong's ear, and Lu Shengzhong also laughed. The two of them immediately went back to make arrangements after the talk.

The hot air balloon slowly took off and slowly floated towards Qingyu City. Sima Chuchu looked at the two hot air balloons, not understanding what Qian Xiaoxing was going to do.

Suddenly, many white paper pieces floated down from the sky, swaying like flowers scattered by the goddess. The strange scenes made everyone come out to watch.

The paper fell to the ground, someone picked it up and looked at it. When he saw the words on it, he immediately let the literate person read it: "Seventy thousand Hu soldiers are about to arrive. Sima Chuchu ignores the lives of the soldiers and wants to resist Hu and Si Jun at the same time, and he will definitely be wiped out. Don't be controlled by Sima Chuchu. It is a wise choice to surrender to the Si Jun! Only by resisting the Hu army with the Si Jun will you win!"

When the soldiers saw these leaflets, they started to discuss. Lanjiang was defeated by the Hu army in the battle, and the Si army was defeated by the Si army in the battle. Whether it was against the Hu army or the Si army, they were very confident.

"Hu Jun is coming again, what should I do? We only have more than 20,000 people, and we are still having trouble with Si Jun. Are we really going to die here?" Some soldiers complained.

Another older soldier said, "Let's go find General Zheng to ask for an explanation!"

"Okay, everyone will go." The soldiers immediately formed a group of soldiers and walked towards the place where Zheng Tong lived.

Zheng Tong was holding a flyer in his hand and was pondering in the room. Sima Chuchu used to say that she would give Si Jun a gift before surrendering. Now that Peng Guangyi's troops have been eliminated, this gift has been received, and Qian Xiaoxing no longer blames him. Resigning to Si Jun should be a natural result, but why did Sima Chuchu just refuse to agree?

While thinking about it, the noise of soldiers outside made Zheng Tong walk out. Seeing that everyone was holding leaflets, Zheng Tong asked, "What are you quarrels about? What's the matter?"

A soldier who led the lead came up and took the flyer and said, "General Zheng, is it true that what is written on it?"

Zheng Tong didn't know how to answer, and said to everyone: "I already know this. Please rest assured. I will definitely give you an answer tomorrow."

Everyone wanted to talk, but seeing that Zheng Tong was holding a flyer in his hand, he had to keep silent. The leading soldier said, "Okay, then I'll wait for General Zheng's reply tomorrow and we'll leave first."

As soon as the soldiers left, Zheng Tong immediately came to Sima Chuchu's residence, put the leaflet on the table and asked, "Chuchu, what are you thinking? Didn't you talk long ago? We went to Si Jun when we had a meeting gift?"

Sima Chuchu sat quietly, glanced at the flyer and said, "Qian Xiaoxing actually used a scheming to shake our army's morale. It's so despicable."

"No, what the leaflet says is true. If Hu Jun comes, we will be attacked on both sides like last time. It is impossible for the entire army to be wiped out!" Zheng Tong reminded.

Sima Chuchu pouted and said, "Whoever asked Qian Xiaoxing to bully me, I'll give him some color to see. I wasn't bullying by him casually. Seeing that they had long wanted us to surrender, I wouldn't, so I would piss him to death."

After hearing this, Zheng Tong shook his head. It seemed that Sima Chuchu was indeed a little irritable at times, so he had to say, "If you don't surrender to the Si army, there will be no place for us to stay here. Chuchu, you have to consider more than 20,000 of our soldiers."

Sima Chuchu thought for a while and said, "This is simple. As long as Qian Xiaoxing apologizes to me, I will agree to defect to Si Jun."

"If Qian Xiaoxing doesn't apologize, we won't surrender?" Zheng Tong suddenly became angry. He had indeed helped the army a lot after listening to Sima Chuchu's advice before, but Sima Chuchu did too much this time.

Sima Chuchu said with a look on his face: "If Qian Xiaoxing watches us being wiped out by the Hu army and ignores it, then let him not apologize."

"Chuchu, you..." Zheng Tong couldn't help but stand up angrily, slamming the door out.

Zheng Tong walked depressedly in Qingyun City. It was dark and there were few pedestrians on the streets. Suddenly, a small soldier came to report: "General, someone outside the city wants to see you." Then he leaned closer to Zheng Tong's ear and whispered: "It's General Zheng Chang."

"Is it my brother? Take me there quickly." Zheng Tong said excitedly.

The soldier took Zheng Tong to the north gate. Zheng Tong went up to the city wall and looked at how many people were standing in the distance. He immediately said, "Put down the suspension bridge, I want to go out to see my brother."

After putting down the suspension bridge, Zheng Tong rode his horse to the people and ran to the near place to look. The person in front was indeed Zheng Chang. He immediately got off the horse. The two brothers hugged each other tightly, expressing their longing.

"Brother, I miss you so much, you're fine." Zheng Tong let go of the hug and looked up and down.

Zheng Chang patted Zheng Tong and said, "Your brother ate and slept soundly. He lived a comfortable life in Si Jun. Brother, come quickly."

Zheng Tong only saw that the people next to Zheng Chang were Qian Xiaoxing and Lu Shengzhong. After seeing the two, he said, "Actually, I have the intention to defect to him, but Sima Chuchu would not agree."

Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but say, "You are the chief general, she is just a military advisor, you don't have to listen to her."

Zheng Tong sighed, "Sima Chuchu led our troops to defeat Peng Guangyi, and she still has some prestige among the soldiers. If I had a quarrel with her, I was afraid that the soldiers would be divided into two factions, which would make the morale of the army unstable, so I endured it and hoped that Sima Chuchu would surrender to the Sijun himself. Unexpectedly, she acted in anger because she had some conflicts with the Chief of Staff and did not want to surrender. By the way, Chuchu said that if she asked Chief of Staff Qian to apologize, she would be willing to lead her troops to the Sijun."

"I want me to apologize?" Qian Xiaoxing pointed to his nose and said, "She doesn't even think about it. I don't owe her any more. If she doesn't want to surrender, just lead the troops here yourself, General Zheng Tong." Qian Xiaoxing suggested.

"Okay, I will lead my troops to surrender." Zheng Tong said happily, and then thought about it and said, "But what should those soldiers who support Chuchu do? Are they just watching them be eliminated by the Hu army?"

Zheng Chang also said, "Yes, those are our brothers, Chief of Staff, think of a way to bring those soldiers who support Chuchu."

"This is simple." Qian Xiaoxing had long been calculating in his mind and said, "As long as General Zheng Tong tied up Sima Chuchu and secretly transported it out of the city, those soldiers who supported Sima Chuchu would not see her, so they would naturally follow General Zheng Tong's head."

"Binding?" Zheng Tong was a little hesitant, and Zheng Chang encouraged, "Brother, you go and do it, listen to the Chief of Staff."

After hearing this, Zheng Tong made up his mind and said, "Okay, then I'll tie Chuchu up, and this time I can only be sorry for her."

Qian Xiaoxing nodded and said, "Okay, you will definitely not treat you badly if you lead your troops to join our Si Jun. Sima Chuchu tied it up and handed it over to me. I'll enlighten her."
