    All the officials of the Lin Kingdom were quickly summoned to the court. The news of losing three battles in a row made everyone very surprised. Everyone was talking in low voices and began to feel panic in their hearts.  King Lin felt the criticality of the current situation, stood up and said: "I think our country, Lin, is also a dominant force in China. Since the creation of the world by my ancestors, we have had a foundation of more than 500 years. There has never been a moment when we have been in such an unbearable situation today. The country's  Our safety rests entirely on you. Please feel free to speak out if you have any countermeasures." A military commander said: "Although we have lost all three battles, we have not lost much strength. We have enough strength to fight Si Guo to the end."  Long shook his head slightly. When he first persuaded King Lin to negotiate peace with Qian Xiaoxing, King Lin insisted on fighting to the end. Now King Lin finally understood Qian Xiaoxing's strength and began to be afraid. Lin Yilong stepped out and said: "The general just said that.  Yes, we still have strength, but have you noticed that after three battles, our defeats were all major defeats. Like the battle at Lianhua Pass, the army did not lose a single person, but we killed 10,000 soldiers and easily captured Lianhua Pass.  I wonder if you can do it? Our fighting ability against Si Guo is like a mantis fighting against Si Guo. Even if we have millions of elite soldiers, I don¡¯t think we have a chance of winning against Si Guo.¡± The general said displeasedly: ¡°Master Lin, you¡¯re just like someone else.¡±  Destroy your ambition and prestige!" Lin Yilong waved his hand and said, "What I said is the truth, and the truth is cruel, but we have to face it." The general was not convinced and replied: "Fighting is nothing more than courage, just like me.  There is a big and colorful tiger in front of me, but if I fight with the big tiger bravely, I may not be able to kill the big tiger! " "Having said that, do you think Si Guo is a big tiger? I think it is a dragon.  There is no way to fight!" Lin Yilong replied helplessly.  Seeing that they were arguing fiercely, King Lin stopped him and said: "Stop arguing, Lin Yilong, what do you think we should do based on the current situation?" Lin Yilong leaned over and replied: "Your Majesty, you want to keep me, Lin Guowu.  With a century-old foundation, the best thing to do is to negotiate with Qian Xiaoxing. Qian Xiaoxing is a soft-spoken person, but if the emperor agrees, I am willing to go out and talk to Qian Xiaoxing." Prince Lin thought about it and asked:  "Then what are you going to use for peace talks with Qian Xiaoxing?" Lin Yilong had a plan in mind and immediately replied: "If in the past, when we were undefeated in three battles, we could cede the land of Hu State to Si State for peace talks  For peace talks, Qian Xiaoxing is not likely to agree to this condition. He may have to cede half of the territory of our country, Lin. Maybe we can negotiate." "Half of the country!" King Lin was obviously very surprised and shook his head and said, "I am the fifth country of Lin.  For hundreds of years, I have only expanded the territory and never made it smaller. How can I do this to my ancestors? What is the difference between this and destroying the country?" Seeing King Lin's refusal, the general said: "Your Majesty, our army is currently in charge.  There are still more than 200,000 people. The emergency recruitment can reach more than 300,000 people, but the Si Kingdom only has 150,000 people. If we are still required to cede territory and negotiate, wouldn¡¯t it make the world laugh out loud? Your Majesty, we would rather die than  No peace talks!¡± The generals were filled with indignation and said loudly: ¡°I would rather die than have peace talks!¡± After hearing this, King Lin was very excited, but his mind was still relatively clear, and he said: ¡°My dear friends, your spirit of preferring death to surrender is very good, but we  What we want is not to die, but to defeat Si Jun. Please think of a good strategy." A military commander came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have studied the battle of Lanjiang. The confrontation between the two armies was only more than 500 meters away.  Our army's inability to charge into the Si Army's camp caused a major defeat, so I suggested that the country mobilize horses and increase cavalry. As long as we can rush in, the Si Army's artillery will have no effect." After hearing this, King Lin nodded happily and praised:  "Ai Qing is right, then immediately mobilize the horses from all over the country and use them as war horses!" When the general heard that King Lin had adopted the opinion, he continued: "A charge may cost a lot of troops, so I think we should gather all the troops from across the country together.  , to avoid being defeated by Si Jun one by one. " King Lin also nodded and said: "Yes, now we take back our troops to gather strength, and then we will punch out like a fist and give Si Jun a hard blow!  " After hearing this decision, the officials felt at ease. Lin Guo adopted the human sea tactic. Even if Si Guo's cannons were powerful, they would not be able to kill 300,000 people. At that time, they would not hesitate to fight to the death with Si Jun.  !  King Lin immediately issued three instructions. The first was to recruit horses from all over the country. The second was to recruit troops nationwide. The third was to summon troops from all over the country back to the vicinity of Qidu to defend the capital to the death.  The conversation turned to the Lotus Pass of the Si State. Sima Yiqing was ordering the soldiers to mount the Shenwei Cannon on the Lotus Pass. Although the chance of Lin Jun's capture of the Lotus Pass was slim, Sima Yiqing could not give his opponent a chance, so he renovated the Lotus Pass and returned it.  plus ???Cannon.  The damaged areas were re-poured with cement and the city wall was strengthened. Sima Chuchu went up to the city wall to see Sima Yiqing and said, "Father, Lin State's 90,000 troops have been identified and have retreated to the city ahead. How should we deal with it?"  Sima Yiqing stroked his beard and said: "I have not made any great achievements since I came to Si State. This time I must wipe out these 90,000 Lin troops to show my ability. I immediately arranged for them to be divided into two groups and go around all the way.  Passing through the enemy's city, they carried three hundred Shenwei cannons and set up an ambush on their retreat. They sent troops from the other side to attack the city and force them to retreat. "Sima Chuchu nodded and asked, "Father, what is your plan?" "  Haha, this plan is to scare the enemy away. Those Lin troops have suffered a lot. If I attack the city with artillery, they will definitely abandon the city and flee. Then if I am ambushed on the road, Lin Jun will be defeated, and our army will definitely win a complete victory."  Sima Yiqing said confidently.  It is not easy to carry the cannon, and it cannot be discovered by the enemy. Sima Yiqing asked the soldiers who went to ambush to take a long detour. When these people reached the ambush position, they could launch an attack.  Two days later, the ambush troops finally arrived at the designated area, but the scouts discovered that there were traces of a large number of soldiers passing by on the road. After asking around, they learned that 90,000 Lin Army soldiers had just withdrawn from here.  Sima Yiqing was very disappointed when he heard the news. As long as he had arrived half a day earlier, Lin Jun would have been surrounded.  However, Lin Jun retreated so promptly. Could it be that Lin Jun knew his plan in advance?  Of course, it is impossible for these Lin Jun to know Sima Yiqing's plan. Lin Jun was summoned back by King Lin.  Sima Yiqing looked at the empty city and said to Sima Chuchu: "I wonder how the other two groups are currently fighting?" Sima Chuchu replied: "With the powerful cannon, victory should not be a problem." The two were talking.  , there were soldiers who sent military reports. In Siguo's developed information transmission network, the transmission of battle reports was still very fast.  Sima Yiqing opened the battle report and saw that Lu Shengzhong led Lanjiang to a great victory in the battle and captured 80,000 enemy troops.  The navy led by Qian Xiaoxing has returned in triumph. Not counting the entire Lin Kingdom navy, it also captured 55 warships and captured more than 30,000 people.  Sima Chuchu said happily after reading it: "Brother Xing is so awesome." Sima Yiqing was unhappy and said: "They all achieved major victories, but I only killed more than 10,000 people along the way. Where can I go with my old face?  "No, no, I can't lose to them, march on immediately!" Sima Chuchu said with a smile: "Father, we are all our own people, there is no comparison, Brother Xing, they all know your ability." "That's not what you said.  Xiaoxing has given me such an important task, so I have to make some achievements," Sima Yiqing replied.  "Then we'll fight again. Don't take risks. If Lin Jun makes a surprise attack, we won't be able to see them." Sima Chuchu reminded.  Sima Yiqing nodded and said, "Of course I know this." Although Sima Yiqing said this, due to his greed for success, he took the risk of entering the army and led to a critical situation, but let's not mention it for now.
