"His Royal Highness King Zhao seems to be very interested in our country's territory!"
Although Ashoka was joking, his eyes showed extreme cruelty.
"Yes, I'm very interested!" Zhao Rui said without hesitation: "If one day the entire territory of the Maurya Dynasty can be merged into our Dachang, what do you think it will be like?"
Ashoka couldn't hold back any longer. He didn't expect that Zhao Rui would say such words in front of him.
After calming down his mind a little, Asoka drank the wine in front of him in one gulp.
"How can the territory of the country be handed over to others casually? Although the territory of our Maurya Dynasty is vast, not an inch is redundant! If His Highness King Zhao wants our country's generals, I am afraid he will have to pay a bloody price, and he may not be able to get it!
"
Zhao Rui laughed twice, tore off a rabbit leg and took two hard bites.
"The food of the Maurya Dynasty has a unique flavor. One day I will go directly to your capital to have a good taste!"
With these words, Zhao Rui withdrew from the canyon with his army.
Ashoka narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhao Rui's back, his face full of murderous intent.
"That's too presumptuous!" A general immediately came up to him and said, "Your Majesty, they are in retreat now. If we pursue them at this moment, we will definitely annihilate them! Please give me your order."
King Ayu exhaled slightly. He certainly knew that now was the best time to destroy Zhao Rui, and keeping such a person alive would be a big hidden danger to the Maurya Dynasty.
But he still suppressed his inner impulse.
The ancestors of the Mauryan Dynasty had never come into contact with the Great Shang, let alone what their strength was.
However, the fact that its army can continuously defeat empires such as Cochin, Khmer, and Izumo is enough to prove how powerful it is.
Moreover, killing a Zhao king and Dashang might send other kings over, which would only lead to an all-out war between the Maurya Dynasty and Dashang in advance.
As a monarch, Ashoka must consider all possibilities.
"Go back to the palace!"
No one dared to be negligent in the slightest, and the army slowly withdrew from the valley.
The main river originating from Dashang territory can be said to have a long history in this land, from north to south all the way to the southernmost sea.
When Zhao Rui led the army to arrive here, he suddenly felt heroic in his heart.
From now on, the vast land on both sides of this main river belonged to Dashang.
"Your Highness, the Duke of Qin has arrived!"
Zhao Rui was shocked when he heard the news. Just a few days after he asked Luo City for help, Bai Hua arrived here.
After a brief surprise, he led the guards to a water village in a hurry.
"Second brother!" Zhao Rui shouted as soon as he entered the door, and then grabbed Bai Hua's shoulders.
"I didn't expect the person who came was you!"
Bai Hua was a little helpless: "I set out from Luocheng on His Majesty's order two months ago, but I have never been able to see you. I can only follow the strategic goal you set and head south along the main river. Finally, I
