Chapter 358 Influence

"Yes, Dahan, the news received from these caravans has occupied all the land around us in Yanqi. Do you still remember what Huo Gang said before I came back?" Long Xin Yutu smiled bitterly. He completely understood what Huo Gang meant.

Huo Gang said that the Yanqi people should not step into the land of the Han Dynasty. He didn't think so much before, but now, when the Han Dynasty occupied all the land around them, it means that all the land around them were the land of the Han Dynasty, and they all became the country among the Han Dynasty.

In other words, the Yanqi people could not leave these places and go to any other place. If the Han Dynasty did not allow it, all caravans and grain transactions would be destined to be unable to proceed. They were not afraid of Yanqi in a short time, but if it took a long time, they destined to be unable to continue.

"This..." A hint of astonishment flashed across Long Tuqizhi's face. After the shock, he looked depressed. He fell directly on his chair, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The atmosphere in the room became depressed instantly. After a long time, Long Tuqizhi smiled bitterly: "I thought of various ways, but I never thought it would be like this. It seems that we still overestimate ourselves."

"Your Majesty...what should we do now?" Long Xin Yutu paused for a moment and asked with some trepidation.

"Do you think we can support it if we don't communicate with the outside world in a short period of time?" Long Tuqizhi was silent for a moment before asking.

"Persistence can be persistent. After all, we do not lack food, and salt can be mined. Although we do not produce other materials such as cloth, there is no problem in a short period of time. But... what I am afraid of is that the current appearance of the man is actually forcing us to make a choice. If we firmly do not surrender..." Long Xin Yutu said silently for a moment.

Long Tuqizhi shook his head slightly: "I know what you are worried about. In fact, when I got the news about you, I had already guessed that our Yanqi ended up and we could not have any other way out."

"Then your majesty, are you?" Long Xinyu Tutu was stunned for a moment, and then asked strangely. Since the Long Tuqi Branch had such an idea, he still asked if he could persist?

"It's very simple. I think that Huo Gang forced us so much, even taking such a big risk in winter, must have made plans, or it is related to their next plan." Long Tuqizhi spoke seriously.

"Although we, Yanqi, may be destined to integrate into the Han Dynasty, as long as we persist for a long time, it will affect the other party's plan. In order to implement the plan smoothly, the other party will inevitably negotiate with us. Even if we are unable to resist, at least we can fight for more favorable conditions." Long Tuqizhi's tone was very calm.

Long Xinyu Tu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect his king to think so thoroughly, or rather... he had already thought of the outcome later, but his emotions did not fluctuate. Obviously he had already considered it.

"In this case... won't they use force?" Long Xin and Yu Tu said after he was stunned, he thought for a while.

"No." Long Tuqizhi said firmly, "If they want to use force, there is no need to do such a thing. They just need to use force directly, so we have the possibility of operating like this."

"Then... I know, but, your majesty, have you thought about it?" Long Xin asked after hesitating for a moment.

Long Tuqizhi smiled bitterly, and he shook his head and said, "What's the point of thinking about it or not? Can we resist? No, either it's destruction or integration into the Han Dynasty. I can't let the entire Yanqi Kingdom follow me with me for my own sake. What's more, the people of Yanqi Kingdom may not be willing to be with me, so I have no other choice."

Long Xin Yutu paused for a moment and didn't say much, because he knew that what Long Tuqizhi was saying was right.

"Okay, you can take charge of the matters during the period when the big man blocks it, and don't cause riots. Just follow what I said. Don't worry, when I can't hold on, I will take the initiative to contact the big man's people." Long Tuqizhi shook his head and said.

"Yes!" Long Xin Yutu immediately agreed, then turned around and left.

There is no way to hide such a thing. As almost all the commercial banks in Yanqi began to evacuate, the news quickly spread throughout the Yanqi Kingdom. The news of the Han Dynasty was not a secret in Yanqi. When such news became turbulent, ordinary people in the Yanqi Kingdom began to panic.

Because they were afraid of war, they all knew that Yanqi had no way to stop the Han cavalry. If they fought, how could they not die?

However, Long Xinyutu had obviously expected such a thing. All Yanqi cities posted relevant announcements, telling all Yanqi people that they were negotiating with the Han Dynasty, so that everyone would not worry. If Yanqi really offended the Han Dynasty, the other party would have called him long ago.

This statement finally stabilized the situation temporarily. At least ordinary people in Yanqi are not short of food or anything like that, so they are just worried that the situation is still stable.

The outside world's news cannot be conveyed to Yanqi now, but the news from Yanqi cannot be hidden at all. Gongsun Lin knew about the announcement issued by Yanqi Kingdom, but Gongsun Lin just smiled slightly and didn't care, because such a thing was powerless to stop their ending. Maybe he couldn't see anything in the short term, but over time, problems would always break out.

Seven or eight days passed, and the first snow in winter finally fell. Looking at the snowflakes falling outside his camp, Gongsun Lin pondered for a moment, then asked directly: "Have our logistics supplies and other things kept up?"

"When I say to the general, the second batch of food and grass has been shipped, which is enough for us for two months. As for horse supply, there are many dead grass around us. We need to feed a small amount of essence every day to ensure the nutrition of the horse."

"Well, remember, there must be no problem with all the horse feedings." Gongsun Lin said seriously.

"yes!"

"Send an order to send someone to investigate the range of falling snow." Gongsun Lin thought for a while and added.

"Yes!" As the scout left, Gongsun Lin looked out the window. If he remembered correctly, as his great man expanded, any rain and snow would definitely cover the area of ​​the great man. The surrounding area was not the territory of the great man, and it would not fall at all.

Gongsun Lin saw this scene more than once. This is the power of the leader, because the leader is the incarnation of heaven, and this is also the reason why they swear to follow the leader to the death, because in this Western Region, rainfall represents hope!

More than an hour later, as the scouts outside returned, Gongsun Lin put on his armor and walked out, "How is it?"

"If you go back to the general, the snowfall is like the summer rainfall. It is within the territory of our Han Dynasty. The subordinates ran dozens of miles along the border we planned. There was no snow in the range of Yanqi Kingdom. The dividing line over there was clearly visible."

"Is that right? Let's get on, get on the horse, and let me see." Hearing this news, Gongsun Lin immediately spoke. If this is true, thinking about the political lessons he had heard before, if he grasped the accurate social class, it might not take that long to take over the Yanqi Kingdom.

Gongsun Lin was not slow either. He led his guards to patrol the border between the two sides for dozens of miles. Looking at the snowflakes, just like the rain in summer, only within the territory of their Han Dynasty, and there was no snowflakes on the opposite country of Yanqi.

Gongsun Lin said directly: "Send an order to send people into the territory of Yanqi and pass on a message, which means that the king of Yanqi offended our Han leaders. As the incarnation of God, God will punish them. From today on, their Yanqi will not fall in snow. If they do not surrender, the entire Yanqi will not grow in a single grass next year. This news also spread to General Ma Yuan, and from different directions of Yanqi, the news will be spread in."

"yes!"

The messenger behind Gongsun Lin quickly left here and passed the order quickly. Looking at the snowflakes falling in the sky, Gongsun Lin, after this time, it may not take long for this news to spread throughout Yanqi.

Just as Gongsun Lin guessed, in fact, even if Gongsun Lin did not spread such news into Yanqi Kingdom, rumors were already spreading among the people of Yanqi Kingdom, but Gongsun Lin and others accelerated the spread of these news.

The snow fell for a day and a night. All the cities and villages living near the Yanqi border could see the snowflakes falling all over the sky, but none of them fell into the territory of the surrounding Han Dynasty.

The rumors that Loulan offended Huo Gang last year were reminded of everyone, and they recalled the freshness of the present. When the news that King Yanqi offended Huo Gang came, the bottom people of the entire Yanqi Kingdom were completely sensation because they did not care about who would be the king, but if they offended Huo Gang, it means... they will not be able to survive next year!

Gongsun Lin still underestimated Huo Gang's influence, or in other words, Huo Gang himself underestimated his influence and underestimated what precipitation represents in the Western Regions!
