"Your Highness is wise, I don't know what our next step will be..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Rui took out a token from his body.
"Master Xu, you can rest here for a few days, and then use my king's token to mobilize 50,000 soldiers and horses to gradually wipe out the surrounding small countries and tribes."
Xu Shengfeng's eyes widened immediately. The total number of troops sent by Dashang this time was 110,000, so he was immediately given 50,000.
He knew how powerful the army was. Even if he only had these 50,000 men, he could easily regain the Southern Xu Kingdom and gain a wider territory.
Just when he was about to go over to pick up the token, he suddenly thought of something and took a step back.
"Your Highness, I am just a king who has subjugated his country. No matter what, I am not suitable to control an army! Please take back your life!"
Zhao Rui smiled with satisfaction and put the token away directly.
He did this just to test Xu Shengfeng. After all, he had just joined the big business and it was hard to distinguish between loyal and treacherous. Moreover, he had warned Zhao Rui before.
Now it seems that this guy still has some brains, but if you really want to take him under your wing, you still have to observe him for a while.
The war launched by the ten armies in the jungle soon came to an end.
The weapons they possess are beyond this era in a large sense, especially when faced with this group of indigenous people, who are countless times more advanced and can easily wipe out all the small countries and tribes in the jungle.
The mineral deposits hidden in this vast primitive jungle are so rich that if they could all be mined, the wealth would be unimaginable.
Originally, Zhao Rui didn't want to take action against the natives here so quickly, but now that the river has been dredged, and baggage and reinforcements from the north are constantly being transported here, it is the best time to take action.
And as long as this place is developed a little, it can be turned into a rear area to fight against the Maurya Dynasty.
Half a month later, the ten armies that had been dispersed gathered together again, and the places where they fought the most were already close to the sea.
And their damage is not that big!
The road with the greatest casualties was also due to the encounter with Congzhanqi, which resulted in the loss of twenty-nine people.
Just as Zhao Rui was about to lead his army back to the water village, a group of less than a hundred people appeared outside the camp.
"His Royal Highness King Zhao, you are too overbearing! Our place is not adjacent to the Great Shang Dynasty. We have lived here for generations without any worries. But why do you want to lead an army to capture our home?"
Zhao Rui couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect that someone would dare to appear in front of him and say such things at this time.
"What are you?"
The question was full of majesty and immediately stopped the guy opposite.
The leading man was stunned for a moment, then dismounted and walked up to Zhao Rui with a long knife in hand.
"It doesn't matter who I am. Since I want His Highness to rule this land, I have to follow our rules. If I can defeat you, please ask the merchant army to withdraw from this land."
