    Two days have passed since Lin Jun was besieged. Lin Jun has not made any movement. He is like a turtle lying down, waiting quietly. If Si Jun dares to come, he will open his mouth and bite hard.  Qian Xiaoxing paced back and forth on the city wall with his hands behind his back, boasting that he would come up with a way to break the city, but after thinking of many plans, 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 in both hands, and cautiously came to Qian Xiaoxing's side and said, "Brother Xing, it's windy on the city wall. Let's have a cup of tea to warm up." Qian Xiaoxing gratefully accepted it.  He took a big sip from the tea cup and said: "Chu Chu, you are also smart, help me think of a way to break Qidu." Sima Chuchu smiled and said, "I was looking for you about this matter. My way is  In this teacup." "In the teacup?" Qian Xiaoxing picked up the teacup and looked around and said, "This is just an ordinary teacup. What's the difference?" "Idiot, I mean in the teacup."  .  "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, looking to see if Qian Xiaoxing could guess, Qian Xiaoxing patted it  Thigh said: "I understand, you mean to boil the water and scald Lin Jun to death!" Sima Chuchu shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "Brother Xing, you don't have a fever, you can think of this method." Sima Chuchu pretended  He went to touch Qian Xiaoxing's forehead, but Qian Xiaoxing grabbed his little hand, touched it and said, "You still think I'm really that stupid? I know your method, which is to cut off the water source of Lin Jun in the city and force  Are they surrendering?" Sima Chuchu then smiled and said: "This is my smart brother Xing." "Cut off the water source" Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but think about it. Lin Jun's water source was cut off, and Lin Jun had no water to drink.  If that happens, he will no longer be as secure as he is now. Qian Xiaoxing waved to Sima Chuchu and said, "Come here, come here."  After a fierce kiss, Qian Xiaoxing said: "Good wife, as a reward, I will arrange for people to cut off the water source of Qidu." In ancient times, capitals were built near rivers, because only  Only by solving the problem of drinking water can we retain people, so there is also a big river near Qidu City, and artificial canals have been dug to divert the river water to Qidu City. Qian Xiaoxing observed that it is relatively simple to cut off the water source of Qidu City, as long as the canal is  Just cut off the water.  Qian Xiaoxing discussed it with Lu Shengzhong and Sima Yiqing. Everyone thought this method was feasible. Sima Yiqing praised Qian Xiaoxing for being smart. Qian Xiaoxing said sheepishly: "This is Chu Chu's idea. If it is feasible, this time  I¡¯ll give her a first-class merit.¡± ¡°That¡¯s it, it doesn¡¯t matter. Whatever Chu Chu thinks about, or whatever you think about, it¡¯s all our own family,¡± Sima Yiqing said happily.  Seeing that everyone had no objections, Qian Xiaoxing immediately arranged for soldiers to block the man-made river. The soldiers carried large rocks and threw them in to cut off the water flow to Qidu.  As soon as the water flow was cut off, the river water downstream quickly became shallower and shallower. There were several dry inlets where fish were densely packed. Qian Xiaoxing directed the soldiers to catch fish. It seemed that they could have fish soup at night.  In Qidu City, the daily water consumption of 200,000 soldiers is not a small amount. Qian Xiaoxing believes that Lin Jun will soon be unable to survive. Qian Xiaoxing is also thinking about what Lin Jun will do next. After the water is cut off, one day  One possibility is that Lin Jun will obediently surrender, but of course this is unlikely. Another possibility is that King Lin leads his troops to break through desperately, but with the Shenwei Cannon in charge, Lin Jun's breakthrough will only lead to death.  At this moment, the news that the river was intercepted reached the Qidu Palace. King Lin had been unable to sleep at night for the past few days. He was afraid that Qian Xiaoxing would play another trick and that Qidu would be attacked by the Si army. However, he was afraid of something coming.  Hearing that the river water was intercepted, his face turned pale.  "Qian Xiaoxing! I think your grandma is a bear!" Prince Lin ignored the majesty of the emperor and cursed hysterically.  After a while, all the officials were summoned. At first, everyone thought that Si Jun was standing still because he was afraid of Lin Jun in the city, but they didn't expect that Qian Xiaoxing was playing tricks.  "There is no water, what do you think we should do?" King Lin asked, spreading his hands.  The officials lowered their heads and thought, and one official said worriedly: "There are 150,000 civilians in Qidu City, 200,000 soldiers, and 350,000 people have no water to drink. They won't be able to survive for a few days." Some generals were excited.  Said: "Your Majesty, let's fight with Si Jun, otherwise we will all die of thirst." "Let's fight!" Everyone shouted one after another.  King Lin stood up and saw that everyone was eager to fight, but without considering the consequences, he shouted: "Fight! Why fight! You can fight those powerful cannons"?, Besides, Qian Xiaoxing is forcing us to fight with them. If we really go to fight, we will really fall into Qian Xiaoxing's trap.  "A civil servant came up and said: "Your Majesty, although the river water has been cut off, there are wells in the city, and the draft problem can still be solved.  " King Lin waved his hand and said contemptuously: "Of course I know this. How can those wells feed so many people? If it were enough for us, Si Jun wouldn't cut off the water!  " The civil servant said hurriedly: "The emperor is right. Although the current wells are not enough, we can dig new wells immediately, so that we can increase the water supply. I believe it is not far from the big river outside the city, and it will be able to be used.  of.  " "That's it," King Lin lowered his head and thought for a moment, then ordered: "Okay, then order the soldiers to dig wells immediately. The more wells you can dig for me, the better!  " King Lin's order was immediately conveyed to the military camp, and the 200,000-strong army immediately dug wells in various garrison locations. The soldiers dug continuously and soon the wells were dug. " Lin Jun's action of digging wells could not be hidden from Si Jun.  Eyes, the situation was reported to Qian Xiaoxing, which made Qian Xiaoxing very disappointed. He originally wanted to use the water cutoff strategy to force Lin Jun to attack, but he didn't expect that Lin Jun just didn't succeed and adopted the tactic of digging wells to avoid it. Sima Chuchu heard about it.  After this news, he said disappointedly: "Brother Xing, it seems that my method didn't work, and it was easily cracked by Lin Jun.  " Qian Xiaoxing comforted: "No, this method works, at least it gave me some inspiration. Originally, I wanted to seize Lin Jun's food and grass, but after Lin Jun did this, I had to give up this idea.  " Sima Chuchu's eyes lit up and he said: "Do you mean to cut off Lin Army's water, but cut off Lin Army's food and grass?  " "Yes, I don't believe Lin Jun can still come up with a solution!"  Qian Xiaoxing said confidently. Sima Chuchu thought for a moment and said, "Lin Jun's food and grass must be heavily guarded. It's not easy to destroy it."  "Haha, Chuchu, did you forget that we still have a hot air balloon?"  "Qian Xiaoxing laughed. "So that's it!  Sima Chuchu understood immediately, kissed Qian Xiaoxing on the face and said, "Brother Xing's method will work, reward him with a sweet kiss."  " "It's just average. My intelligence is second in the world.  "Qian Xiaoxing said happily. Sima Chuchu asked doubtfully: "Who is the number one person in the world?  " "This" Qian Xiaoxing pretended to be mysterious and said, "I admit that I am second in the world, but no one dares to admit that I am number one in the world!"  " "Go away, you stinking fart!  "Sima Chuchu scolded. "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 made speculations.  The purpose of the hot air balloon. When the hot air balloon was filled with hot air and stood upright, the soldiers couldn't believe it. When the hot air balloon slowly rose with the two guard company soldiers, everyone opened their mouths in surprise. By Hu Suoyuan.  Leading the team, two hot air balloons floated slowly over Qidu City. The main task this time was to conduct reconnaissance. First, they found out where Lin Jun stored food and grass. The two hot air balloons floated over Qidu City, letting the people below.  The people and soldiers of Lin State stopped and looked up to observe. Things could actually fly in the sky. Such a scene was rare.
