Chapter 357: Siege
Long Xin Yu Tu reined in the horses, cautiously approached the city, and when he arrived near the city, he found that there was indeed no problem, could it be ...... The opposing army's army really didn't come here? Where did the tens of thousands of troops go?
However, Long Xin Yutu didn't think about it so much, he went directly to Wangcheng, and when Long Xin Yutu returned to Wangcheng, he saw Longtu Riding Branch, and directly told Longtu Riding Branch about him in Yumen Pass.
"Really?! Huo Gang really said that?! The dragon rider asked directly in astonishment.
"Yes, but Your Majesty, it's not a good thing." Long Xin said quickly on the way, and he told all the things that happened on his way to the dragon tuqi branch.
"This? How this should be for the better! The dragon rider was immediately stunned, and his whole person immediately began to spin around like an ant on a hot pot, because for Yanqi Kingdom, not to mention the Great Han, even the Gaochang Kingdom next door They are not opponents!
At this moment, hearing that tens of thousands of troops of the Great Han were going out, and it was still possible to come at them, how could the Dragon Turf Cavalry Branch not be worried? Because once the two sides are at war, it is not something that can be solved by surrendering, they will definitely not be able to defeat each other, and these armies of theirs do not have any desire to fight at all.
It is estimated that once the other party comes, even if it is all cavalry, it is estimated that they will surrender instantly.
Because the Yanqi Kingdom had surrendered too many times, they were all used to such an existence.
"Or else...... Shall we surrender? Isn't it a complete submission to the Great Han? Isn't Bosa also the lord of Loulan City now? If I surrender, as long as I become a city lord, I will admit it. After walking a few laps, the dragon rider suddenly spoke.
He is no longer young, and he is not the same person he was back then, although it is said that the capital of Yanqi is surrounded by water, but no matter how surrounded by water there is no way to stop the siege, and the walls of their city are not as tall as the Tang Dynasty.
Long Xin paused on the way, he didn't know how to describe it for a while, not that he felt that the Dragon Rush Cavalry Branch didn't have ambition, to be honest, he didn't have this ambition either, because the two sides were not at the same level of battle at all.
The Eastern Turkic Jieli Khan carried 40,000 elite Turkic cavalry, but all of them were wiped out by Huo Gang, and the Han casualties were no more than a thousand! And their entire Yanqi soldiers are only six thousand, even if they have a city, the two sides are not at the same level at all, if they once they resist stubbornly, then Huo Gang's other murderous name may have to be shown.
He wouldn't say that the people were slaughtered, but their kings and their nobles and ministers were absolutely inevitable.
"Or shall we wait? Although Huo Gang is murderous, he is indeed reputable, and he will hardly regret what he says, since he said so, he must not regret his hunger, but he doesn't know what he is going to do. Long Xin Yu Tu hesitated for a moment and said.
The dragon rider thought for a while, and then nodded fiercely, he is now a king, and the Yanqi Kingdom has been the king of their dragon family for hundreds of years, and suddenly let him directly give up the entire Yanqi, if he is not reluctant, it is impossible.
can be an emperor, who wants to be a city lord? Even if Bosa is still doing well, he is not like a king who can do whatever he wants.
The dragon turkey cavalry nodded: "Okay, then you let people pay close attention to the movements of the Han army, if there is any movement, report to me as soon as possible, no matter what they are doing, but in a word, they must have a purpose." ”
"Yes!" Long Xin Yutu nodded, and then he hesitated for a moment and then spoke: "Your Majesty, although I don't know whether to say this or not, but if they really make a move, Your Majesty is ready to surrender directly?" ”
"Do you have any opinions, then?" Dragoon looked at him and asked.
"Shall we contact Ju Wentai?" Long Xin asked after a moment's hesitation.
"Do you think that if we join forces with Gao Changguo, we can beat the big Han?" Dragoon asked.
"I can't." Long Xin Yutu didn't even hesitate this time, because this was simply impossible.
"Then what do you think is the use of us contacting Gao Changguo? Ju Wentai is a very arrogant and conceited person, he thinks that Gaochang can resist the Han Dynasty, he thinks that the Han only has cavalry and is not good at attacking cities, but what benefits can we Yanqi get? The dragon said.
After a long time, he sighed again and said: "Actually, you and I know, if the Han really wants to do something to us, we Yanqi will not have any ability to resist, don't say that you don't know about Loulan's affairs, and Huo Gang and the former Sui are not the same as the previous Central Plains Dynasty." ”
"The Han Dynasty is not the Central Plains Dynasty, but he has signed an alliance with the Central Plains Dynasty, according to our news, the envoys of the Tang Dynasty have been stationed in the Han Dynasty, and Huo Gang will marry Li Shimin's eldest princess in a few years, she is the real Tang Dynasty princess, you should know very well what it means."
"This means that the border between the Han and the Tang Dynasty will become extremely peaceful and peaceful, and then the Han can draw all the troops to the west, and the Tang Dynasty can draw all the troops to the north, which means that neither the west side nor the north side can resist the two powerful countries." The dragon rider said in a calm tone.
Long Xin Yutu was silent for a while, he knew that what his king said was true, Long Xin Yutu glanced at the king's somewhat old face, and he knew that it was not that he didn't know anything, but that he knew everything, but due to the strength of their Yanqi Kingdom, there was no other choice at all.
"So, let's just leave it alone and see what the big man is going to do." Dragoon shook his head.
"Yes!" Long Xin nodded at the top.
"Okay, you go back and rest, we have no way to resist, we can only see the move." The dragon tuqi waved his hand again.
Long Xin Yutu didn't insist, he nodded directly, and then left the palace after saluting, looking at Long Xin Yutu's back, Long Tu Qizhi shook his head slightly and sighed, he knew that if Huo Gang didn't agree to any of their requests, it meant that Huo Gang had an absolute way to control them Yanqi Kingdom.
It's just a matter of time, I just don't know what method the other party will use, but for now, this is good news, at least the other party will not kill them. It's just that the dragon rider pondered for a moment, and he was already thinking about how much of his wealth would be able to keep if he surrendered.
He has heard about Loulan, Bosa is now the lord of Loulan City, and Huo Gang, the family wealth of Bosa, has not been taken away, but the entire treasury of Loulan and other things have been collected by Datang, does he want to make everything in the treasury his own?
Although Yanqi is not too rich in the Western Regions, but in fact, Yanqi is not a poor country, thanks to Tianhai, Tianhai is the name of their Yanqi people, which means the sea of heaven, hundreds of years ago the Han people once called it the near sea, and later called it the West Sea, Dunxupu.
The vast Tianhai nourished the Yanqi country and raised the Yanqi people, and there are abundant fish in the Tianhai Sea, which makes the Yanqi people not lack meat, and because of the environmental relationship of the Tianhai, the land in the Yanqi country is also abundant, and they can have enough food.
In the entire Western Regions, they are the only ones who do not lack food and can sell it to other countries. There are even salt mines near their Tianhai, which means that they are not short of some basic resources.
It's just that now, all this is destined to become crumbling in front of the iron cavalry of the Great Han.
Now I just don't know what kind of means Dahan will use.
The idea of the Longtu Cavalry Branch is actually correct, because Gongsun Lin has already gone around to the west of the Yanqi Kingdom, just as he guessed, there are many Turkic gathering points around the Yanqi Kingdom, and the population of these gathering points is not large, but he has heard of Huo Gang, mainly because of the submission of the Tongluo and Xue Yantuo tribes, so that countless Turks have received the news.
As the caravans continued to spread some news about the Han Dynasty, the Turks living in poverty knew the opportunity. With the arrival of Gongsun Lin and them, these Turks decisively chose to join the Han Dynasty.
As for their feelings for the Turks, in fact, they don't have much affection, these tribes were not even Turkic before, they all had their own names, but after joining the Turks, they knew that the unification was called Turkic.
Many of these nomads have no concept of a state at all, and even they are forced by the Turkic aristocracy to join the Turks, and now that they have a better choice, of course they will not object.
As banners were erected in these tribes, after Yanqi, in just half a month, the White Tiger and the Vermilion Bird Army had surrounded all the territories around Yanqi.
To be precise, all the roads into Yanqi have been blocked, and the blockade order of the Han Dynasty has spread throughout the Western Regions.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is no good." Half a month passed in a hurry, and Long Xin Yutu had been listening to the movements of the Han cavalry, but what he never expected was that the latest news came from the caravan.
"What's wrong?" The dragon rider was startled and immediately asked.
"I just received the news that many of my firms in Yanqi are leaving Yanqi." Long Xin Yutu took a deep breath and said quickly.
"Leave? What do you mean? The dragon rider was stunned for a moment.
"It's just to leave completely, never to come back, they won't come to Yanqi to do business." Longxin Yutu Expressway.
"Why?!" The dragon rider was stunned, "Big man? After that, he reacted instantly and asked directly.
