If Brother Jin were a little less intelligent, he might still be a pawn in the Flowing Sand Kingdom right now!
From these words, Gu Xin also grasped the key point: with the alliance between Langge Kingdom and Yunhai Tribe, it was no longer feasible for them to return to Da Zhou by sea.
Moreover, Gu Xin was unsure whether Kuncheng knew about the alliance between Langge Kingdom and Yunhai Tribe.
Furthermore, Gu Xin had heard Lu Zheng mention the situation surrounding the Great Zhou. There were only a few small countries, and because crossing the desert was very difficult, no matter which dynasty was in the Great Zhou, there was no contact with the areas west of the desert. There was no trade, and even less so war. Not knowing the strength of the other side and being attacked rashly would be very bad for the Great Zhou.
Gu Xin frowned: "Brother Xiao Jin, we must let Peng's army know about this so they can prepare. Otherwise, they'll think it's only Langge's troops, and then many people will definitely die."
Cheng Huaijin sighed, "I'd like to as well. But how do we make contact? It takes a month to cross the desert from Langge back to Liusha. When I went to Langge before, I tried everything by land and water, even having my entourage pretend to be merchants going to Da Zhou, but none of it worked. Langge is very strict about those going to Da Zhou to do business. Those who can go are basically people who have been doing business there for the past two years. Others can't even leave the city gates. As for waterways, forget about it."
Gu Xin pursed her lips.
She now wants to send back news that she is safe and sound, and also news of the alliance between Langge Kingdom and Yunhai Tribe, so that Great Zhou can prepare for defense.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Xin asked, "Brother Xiao Jin, do you know how many soldiers the Yunhai tribe has?"
Cheng Huaijin: "It's hard to estimate. Because the Yunhai tribe is the strongest tribe here, many small countries will submit to them at a single command. I went to Langge Kingdom because the king of the Yunhai tribe issued an order that all the surrounding small countries must send people over, otherwise they will be swallowed up directly. As far as I know, no small country or tribe can defeat the Yunhai tribe, and none of these small countries or tribes have ever thought of uniting to resist the Yunhai tribe. I want to hurry back to Liusha Kingdom because I'm worried about what the Yunhai tribe will do to Liusha Kingdom. Because my godfather clearly doesn't want to fight, if he doesn't comply, the Yunhai tribe will annex Liusha Kingdom sooner or later."
“So domineering…” Gu Xin paused for a moment, “Our Great Zhou has a strong army and a good cavalry. In recent years, we have had a bumper harvest. If we are prepared, we should be able to resist.”
Cheng Huaijin remained silent. He had been away from the Great Zhou for nearly five years. Because the Liusha Kingdom was far from the Great Zhou, there was no news from the Great Zhou. Therefore, he was unaware of the changes that had taken place in the Great Zhou in recent years.
“Brother Jin, the Jin Nan Kingdom has already submitted to the Great Zhou, and the Southern Frontier has long been defeated.” Gu Xin looked at Cheng Huaijin and continued, “I’m in trouble. My father, my sister, and Brother Yuanyuan will definitely find out immediately and will trace it back to the Sand God Kingdom. Therefore, the Sand God Kingdom and the Chuyun Kingdom will be defeated by them sooner or later. The Goddess Kingdom is now on friendly terms with our Great Zhou, and Queen Dugu has already met with the Emperor in the capital. So, the Great Zhou has no worries about its rear and can focus all its efforts on fighting the Langge Kingdom. The only problem now is the alliance between the Langge Kingdom and the Yunhai Tribe. So, I need to send a message back.”
