Chapter 44 The plan to cut off the water

Two days have passed since Lin Jun was besieged. Lin Jun did not make any noise, as if he was a turtle lying on his face, waiting quietly. If Si Jun dared to come, he would open his mouth and bite it hard.

Qian Xiaoxing paced back and forth on the city wall with his hands behind his back, proclaiming that he would come up with a way to break the city, but after thinking about many solutions, he still couldn't break the city, and he couldn't help but feel impatient.

Sima Chuchu walked up to the city wall, held a cup of hot tea with both hands, and came to Qian Xiaoxing carefully, saying, "Brother Xing, the wind is strong on the city wall, let's drink a cup of tea to warm your body."

Qian Xiaoxing took the teacup with gratitude and took a big sip, and said, "Chuchu, you are smart, please help me think of the way to Po Qidu."

Sima Chuchu smiled and said, "I'm looking for you for this matter, my solution is in this teacup."

"In the teacup?" Qian Xiaoxing picked up the teacup and looked around and said, "This is an ordinary teacup. What's the difference?"

"Idiot, I mean in the teacup." Sima Chuchu reminded.

"Oh..." Qian Xiaoxing thought for a while and said, "There is tea in the teacup, what do you mean..."

Sima Chuchu still smiled and said nothing. Seeing whether Qian Xiaoxing could guess. Qian Xiaoxing slapped his thigh and said, "I understand. What you mean is to burn Lin Jun to death after boiling water!"

Sima Chuchu shook her head with a wry smile and said, "Brother Xing, you don't have a fever, you can think of this method."

Sima Chuchu made a move to touch Qian Xiaoxing's forehead, but Qian Xiaoxing grabbed his little hand and touched it and said, "Do you think I'm really so stupid. I know your solution, it's just to cut off the water source of the forest army in the city and force them to surrender, right?"

Sima Chuchu then smiled and said, "This is my smart star brother."

"Break the water source..." Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but think, cut off Lin Jun's water source. If Lin Jun had no water to drink, he would never be as safe as the rock at the moment. Qian Xiaoxing waved to Sima Chuchu and said, "Come here, come here."

Sima Chuchu approached Qian Xiaoxing, and was caught by Qian Xiaoxing and kissed her fiercely on her sexy lips. After that, Qian Xiaoxing said, "Good wife, I will give you a reward. I will arrange the water source of Duan Qidu now."

In ancient capitals, there were places near rivers in construction locations. Because only by solving the problem of drinking water can people be retained, there was also a big river near Qidu City. An artificial canal was dug to guide the river water to Qidu City. Qian Xiaoxing observed that it was relatively simple to cut off the water source of Qidu, just cut off the canal water.

Qian Xiaoxing and Lu Shengzhong and Sima Yiqing discussed it. Everyone thought this method was feasible. Sima Yiqing praised Qian Xiaoxing for his cleverness. Qian Xiaoxing said embarrassedly: "It was Chuchu's solution. If it works, I will give her a first-class merit this time."

"It doesn't matter if Chuchu thinks or you think, it's all our own family." Sima Yiqing said happily.

Seeing that everyone had no objection, Qian Xiaoxing immediately arranged for soldiers to block the artificial river. The soldiers carried large stones and threw them in, cutting off the water flowing to Qidu.

As soon as the water flow was cut off, the river water downstream quickly became shallower and shallower. There were several dry water bays with fish in dense crowds. Qian Xiaoxing commanded the soldiers to catch the fish. It seemed that he could have a fish soup at night.

In Qidu City, the daily water consumption of 200,000 soldiers is not small. Qian Xiaoxing believes that Lin’s army will soon be unable to bear it. Qian Xiaoxing is also considering what Lin’s army will do next. After the water is cut off, one possibility is that Lin’s army will surrender obediently. Of course, this is unlikely. Another possibility is that King Lin leads his troops to break through the siege, but with the divine cannon in charge, Lin’s army’s breakthrough is just to die.

At this moment, the news that the river water was intercepted reached the Qidu Palace. King Lin had been unable to sleep at night these days, for fear that Qian Xiaoxing would make any tricks, and was worried that Qi would be compromised by the Si army, but he was afraid that something would come. King Lin was frightened when he heard the river water was intercepted and his face turned pale.

"Qian Xiaoxing! My god, your grandma!" King Lin cursed hysterically regardless of the emperor's majesty.

After a while, all the officials were summoned. Originally, everyone thought that the Si army was not moving because they were afraid of Lin Jun in the city, but they did not expect that Qian Xiaoxing was using conspiracies.

"There is no water, what do you want to do!" King Lin asked with his hands spread out.

The officials lowered their heads and thought, and some officials said worriedly: "There are 150,000 people in Qidu City, 200,000 soldiers, and 350,000 people without water, and it will take a few days to survive."

A general said excitedly: "Your Majesty, let's fight with Si Jun, otherwise we will all die of thirst."

"Go ahead!" Everyone shouted.

King Lin stood up and saw that everyone was eager to fight, but he didn't consider the consequences. He shouted: "War! What kind of battle are you going to fight? Have you ever fought those divine cannons? Besides, Qian Xiaoxing is forcing us to fight with them. If you really fight, you will really fall into Qian Xiaoxing's plan."

A civil servant said, "Emperor, although the river water is cut off, there are wells in the city, so the draft problem can still be solved."

Wang Lin waved his hand and said contempt: "Of course I know this. How can those wells be enough for so many people to eat? If they are enough for us, Si Jun will not intercept the water!"

The civil servant hurriedly said, "The emperor is right. Although the water supply in the water wells is not enough, we can dig a new water well immediately so that the water supply can be increased. I believe that this place is not far from the river outside the city, so it will definitely be usable."

"That's it," King Lin lowered his head and thought for a moment, and ordered: "Okay, then immediately order the soldiers to dig the well, the more they can dig for me, the better!"

King Lin's order was immediately passed to the military camp, and 200,000 troops immediately dug water wells at various stations. The soldiers continued to dig and quickly dug the wells.

Lin Jun's actions of digging a water well were naturally not hidden from Si Jun's eyes. The situation was reported to Qian Xiaoxing, which disappointed Qian Xiaoxing. He originally wanted to use the water cut strategy to force Lin Jun to attack, but he didn't expect that Lin Jun just failed and adopted the well digging tactic to avoid it.

Sima Chuchu heard the news and said disappointedly: "Brother Xing, it seems that my method doesn't work, and it's easily cracked by Lin Jun."

Qian Xiaoxing comforted: "No, this method is useful, at least it gave me some inspiration. I originally wanted to seize Lin Jun's food and grass. After Lin Jun did this, I could only give up this idea."

Sima Chuchu's eyes lit up and she said, "Do you mean to keep the water from the Lin army, but to cut off the food and grass from the Lin army?"

"Yes, I don't believe that Lin Jun can come up with a solution!" Qian Xiaoxing said confidently.

Sima Chuchu thought for a while and said, "The food and grass of Lin's army must be heavily guarded, so it is not easy to destroy it."

"Haha, Chuchu, have you forgotten that we still have hot air balloons?" Qian Xiaoxing smiled.

"So that's how it is!" Sima Chuchu immediately understood and kissed Qian Xiaoxing on the face, saying, "It's better Brother Xing's method work, reward him with a fragrant kiss."

"Overall, my intelligence is the second best in the world." Qian Xiaoxing said happily.

Sima Chuchu asked in confusion: "Who is the number one person in the world?"

"This..." Qian Xiaoxing pretended to be mysterious and said, "I admit that the world is the second, but no one dares to admit that the world is the best!"

"Go ahead!" Sima Chuchu cursed.

According to Qian Xiaoxing's instructions, the hot air balloon that had not been used for many years began to be filled with hot air again. The huge hot air balloon attracted countless soldiers from the army to watch. Many soldiers saw the hot air balloon for the first time and speculated about the purpose of the hot air balloon.

When the hot air balloon was erected with hot air, the soldiers could not believe it. When the hot air balloon slowly rose with two guards, everyone opened their mouths in surprise.

Leading by Hu Suoyuan, two hot air balloons slowly floated over Qi's capital. The main task this time was to conduct reconnaissance, first of all, to find out where Lin Jun stored food and grass.
