At this time, the Si army infantry had already attacked the Lianhua Pass, and many soldiers had already set up ladders to attack the city wall. Sima Yiqing looked solemn, and the attack or not attack was repeated in his heart, which made him hesitate. If the judgment was wrong this time, the current good siege situation would be lost. Moreover, when Sima Yiqing came to Sima Yiqing made such a big joke, and Sima Yiqing couldn't hold it back.

However, rich experience told him that the expression of the enemy general's general was not normal. What kind of tricks did Lin's army have made Sima Yiqing puzzled.

Sima Yiqing thought for a long time, but couldn't imagine it, so he had to ask Qian Xiaoxing and said, "Son-in-law, think about it, if you were Lin Jun, how would you deal with Si Jun?"

Qian Xiaoxing looked around and said in confusion: "There are no mountain cliffs here, so you can't even throw objects from high altitudes. There is a Heye Lake around, but what's the use of the lake?"

"Hu!" Sima Yiqing became nervous when he heard this and said, "Son-in-law, withdraw the troops quickly!"

Qian Xiaoxing heard Sima Yiqing's anxious tone and had no time to ask why, immediately ordered: "Ming Jin to withdraw his troops!"

At the Lotus Pass, many soldiers of the Army had already climbed up. Seeing that they could occupy the city wall after a little more time, suddenly, "Ding, Ding..." and the sound of gold sounded.

The military orders were like mountains. Although he finally attacked the Lianhua Pass city wall, the soldiers of the Si army retreated quickly. Seeing the soldiers starting to retreat, Qian Xiaoxing asked: "Father-in-law, what conspiracy will Lin Jun have?"

"The lake is the Lotus Leaf Lake. The Lotus Valley is low-lying. What would you think if Lin Jun digs the lake water?" Sima Yiqing asked back.

"The water flooded the seven armies!" Qian Xiaoxing screamed in shock. He remembered that in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there was a story about Guan Yu flooding Cao Cao's seven armies with the water of the Han River, and winning with less. Will this history be reproduced today?

Qian Xiaoxing was shocked and felt a strong wind blowing on his face, with a hint of water vapor mixed in the wind. When he looked up, he saw a turbid mountain torrent in a mountain stream in the distance, making a "boom" sound.

"The flood is coming!" nearby soldiers shouted loudly.

"Run!" Qian Xiaoxing shouted loudly. Seeing that the flood was only more than one hundred meters away from his eyes, the waves ahead were three or four meters high. The flood was mixed with broken trees, and the floating rocks surged all the way. Sima Yiqing reminded: "Son-in-law, let's retreat quickly!"

Hu Suoyuan turned the front of the carriage and drove quickly with the soldiers to the high ground. The soldiers of the Si army ran wildly, but many soldiers were still swept away by the surging waves.

The yellow and turbid mountain torrent quickly encroached on the open space in front of Lianhua Pass. The original wilderness turned into a vast ocean, and many soldiers of the Si army were struggling in the water. Qian Xiaoxing stood on the high slope and felt heartbroken when he saw it, shouting: "Hu Suoyuan, find a boat to save people immediately!"

Sima Yiqing was also very guilty when he saw the struggling soldiers and said, "I was too hesitant. If I make a quick decision, I can still gain a lot of time. I just blame me for being face, for fear of being embarrassed by misjudgment."

Qian Xiaoxing comforted: "Brother-in-law, you have bought a lot of time for the Si army. If you hadn't seen the clues, I'd be afraid that my infantry would be wiped out."

The flood hit the shore and caused waves. Sima Yiqing stepped back a few steps and said, "I didn't expect that there was such a master in the Lin army who could use the trick of flooding. We must be more cautious in the future." Sima Yiqing warned.

Qian Xiaoxing nodded and replied, "You can only be defeated by knowing yourself and your enemy. It seems that the reason for our failure this time is that we are too aggressive without exploring the situation. We must learn from this lesson. Zhang Yongchao immediately sent someone to find out who the Lin army was stationed in Lianhua Pass. The more we investigate this person's situation, the better!"

"Yes!" Zhang Yongchao took the order and left.

There was no ship near Lianhua Pass, so Hu Suoyuan had to ask the soldiers to cut down trees and make rafts, and push them into the flood to rescue people. Lin Jun, who was at Lianhua Pass, looked at this scene and laughed. The commander of Lin Jun wearing golden armor was over fifty years old and named Chen Tian. He had not been valued in Lin State before. This time, King Lin chose him to station in Lianhua Pass, and it seemed that he had chosen the right person.

Chen Tian's skin was dark and his face was covered with a black beard, looking like a ball of black charcoal. He only heard him say: "Although the Si army was so happy this time, the Si army had already withdrawn before the water arrived, otherwise more would be drowned. I can't figure out how the Si army knew my plan."

"Is there any spies in our army?" the deputy general next to him guessed.

Chen Tian was obviously a little intelligent, shook his head and said, "It's not the reason. If there were really spies who let Si Jun know about the flooding plan, would Si Jun die so many people?"

"Uh..." The deputy general nodded and replied: "What the general said is very true. According to the information, Si Jun now has two powerful figures, both of whom are famous, one is Qian Xiaoxing and the other is Sima Yiqing. It is rumored in China that the two of them have a combination of swords and are invincible in the world."

"The world is invincible! A joke!" Chen Tian laughed and said, "Now they are both hit by my flooding plan, but they can feel the danger in advance and withdraw their troops early, so they are a little capable."

The deputy general slapped and said, "That's right, with the general stationed here to guard Lianhua Pass, the Si army will flood it once and once. If there is a general in the Lin Kingdom, you can rest assured and worry-free."

"Qian Xiaoxing, Sima Yiqing is just like this!" Chen Tian was full of confidence, but turned around and said, "The water in Lotus Lake will always shine. The construction of Lotus Pass must be accelerated."

The deputy general bowed and replied, "Yes! We must build it quickly!"

After only a part of the water was released, the gate was closed. The flood came quickly and retreated quickly. The land washed by the water was in a mess, but the most dazzling one was the corpses of the soldiers of the Si Jun. A large number of corpses were lying in the pond. Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but cry.

Sima Yiqing was in a heavy mood and said, "Son-in-law, let's withdraw back to Huju Pass first."

Qian Xiaoxing looked at the sky was almost evening and nodded and said, "Okay, Hu Suoyuan, has the personnel losses been counted?"

Hu Suoyuan came up and replied: "Chief of Staff, more than 3,500 soldiers were killed this time."

Qian Xiaoxing sighed and said, "This time he went to the army is not good, it is so frustrating."

Sima Yiqing comforted: "A mature commander, a virtuous son-in-law, will not be disturbed by one or two wins and defeats. We must also win and lose!"

Qian Xiaoxing nodded as if he had some understanding. The Si army returned the same route and retreated to Hujuguanzhong. Although he was defeated this time, the morale of the Si army soldiers did not diminish. Instead, they all held their breath, and their desire for revenge for Lin Guo became stronger.

Under the moonlight, Qian Xiaoxing and Sima Yiqing sat opposite each other on the tall Huju Pass. The father-in-law and son-in-law were drinking while discussing the matter. Qian Xiaoxing said: "Father-in-law, Lin Jun used a flooding strategy on us this time. So, Lin Jun will still use this trick in our next attack. How should we deal with it?"

Sima Yiqing said helplessly: "It seems that the chief general of the Lin army is not a good person. Judging from today's situation, the water in Heye Lake has been controlled by the Lin army and can be released to flood people at any time, but I think there will always be a time when the water shines."

"My father-in-law means that we lure the Lin army to release water. Once the water is empty, the Lin army will have no choice?" Qian Xiaoxing just finished speaking, shook his head and said, "I think this method will not work. The Lin army general is not so confused. If our army attacks on a small scale, then we can resist it without releasing water. If our army launches a large-scale attack, even if we are prepared, there will inevitably be losses."

"Haha, the son-in-law has a good analysis, but what you thought of was asking Lin Jun to let the water go. Why didn't we help them release water?" Sima Yiqing said with a touch of beard.

After hearing this, Qian Xiaoxing said in admiration: "Just hit a snake, just hit seven inches. The gate for water release is the key. My father-in-law immediately grasped the key point. Then I will arrange for someone to destroy it immediately and shine the water in Heye Lake!"

Seeing Qian Xiaoxing standing up and going to call someone, Sima Yiqing grabbed Qian Xiaoxing and said, "Son-in-law, don't be anxious, sit down!"

Qian Xiaoxing sat back in confusion. Sima Yiqing took a sip of wine and said, "Have you learned your lesson yet? You must know yourself and your enemy, and you must not make a rash move."

Qian Xiaoxing was stunned for a moment after hearing this and said, "What father-in-law meant is that the gate that releases water might be a bait?"

"Yes, since the general of the Lin army can use a flooding plan, we cannot underestimate him. If we can think of destroying the water gate, he will naturally think of protecting the water gate. If the design is good, an ambush against the Si army who went to destroy it will cause a considerable loss to our army again." Sima Yiqing analyzed.

After hearing this, Qian Xiaoxing calmed down and secretly blamed himself for why he is so frigid and not at all careful. After thinking for a while, he said, "My father-in-law is right. Then I will arrange someone to go to reconnaissance first. If there is really an ambush, we will think of another way."

Sima Yiqing nodded and encouraged, "Son-in-law, you are still very smart, you can do whatever you want. I will give you twelve words: be careful and serious, be modest and cautious! These are the qualities that an excellent commander should have. I believe that after being tempered, you will definitely be more mature in the future."

"What my father-in-law taught me is that now I have the safety of Si State on my shoulders. Even if I am sorry for myself, I cannot be sorry to the people and soldiers of Si State. I will remember it." Qian Xiaoxing replied seriously.

That night, Qian Xiaoxing sent a scout to go to the vicinity of Heye Lake for reconnaissance. By the next day, Zhang Yongchao had already found out the situation of Lin Army Chief Chen Tian and came back to report to Qian Xiaoxing immediately.

Zhang Yongchao said: "Chen Tian is a hereditary general of Lin Guo. His family has been generals for three generations. His father is a famous general in Lin Guo. After his father's death, Chen Tian was at the top of the throne, but he has never been valued. This time, King Lin sent other generals to Hu Guoshandu, which gave him the opportunity to show off. With intelligence analysis, Chen Tian was arrogant and impetuous in character, and his strategies and tactics were learned from his father's place."

"It's very detailed, this information is very timely." Looking at Zhang Yongchao who had not been sleeping all night, Qian Xiaoxing said: "Zhang Yongchao, thank you for your hard work, go back and rest."
