1329 TWO Chapter 1329-Unusual actions of the Great Xia army (2/2)
Luckily, with the Xia emperor's promise, this problem would come to an end no matter what.
The Ashoka King knew his place and did not bring up the issue of compensation. As long as the Great Xia Army stopped these actions, the little losses the Ashoka Dynasty had suffered so far would not be much.
In truth, Ashoka would not flip on Great Xia because of such small profits.
No matter what, the India war situation was beneficial to them. Moreover, before they obtained a clear victory, many things could happen.
At such a time, the worry would be the alliance having cracks and breaking apart.
The Ashoka King understood the importance of this.
After this, since he handled the matter well and did not lose his head, Ashoka felt delighted.
...
Unfortunately, the following events proved that Ashoka was happy a little too early.
After Ashoka personally appealed, Great Xia seemed to stop on the surface, allowing him to heave a sigh of relief.
However, just a week later, a new situation that occurred.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
Based on the reports from the spies, Great Xia's actions went from on the surface to in the dark. Although they did not openly take money and grain, they 'invited' merchants to Hetao Province to invest and do business.
Facing the army's personal visits, how could they refuse?
At the same time, Great Xia's Nanjiang Governor-General House also openly hired talents from the occupied regions.
Although they did not sweep up everyone, they took in all kinds of talents, taking the cream of the crop.
Great Xia's method was truly ingenious.
Saying that all parties were willing, they openly stole talents in a flawless manner.
Due to many years of fighting, the merchants and talents were not all forced to accept the olive branch from Great Xia. A large portion of them willingly moved over to Nanjiang.
After all, everyone sought a peaceful life.
In comparison, the civilians did not like the Ashoka Dynasty as much.
When Ashoka received the report, he was so furious that his face turned black. However, there was nothing he could do. After all, the civilians of the occupied land were all willing to move, so Ashoka did not have the face to complain.
As a ruler, he had his own pride.
He could not be like a peddler and quarrel with the Xia emperor like a little kid.
Ashoka could not lose his face like that.
”We have to take measures!”
Ashoka was a prideful person. Since he had eaten a defeat, he wanted to turn the situation around.
Not complaining did not mean that there was nothing he could do about it.
”'Men!” Ashoka shouted.
”Present!”
The Ashoka King ordered, ”Let the personal troops know that I want to go to the frontlines myself.”
”Yes!”
Ashoka had calculated everything. Since he could not stop Great Xia from playing tricks, he could only let his strength do the talking. He would gather his forces on the frontlines of the Peacock Dynasty to race against Great Xia.
The faster they conquered the Peacock Dynasty, they less that they would lose. The more cities they conquered, the less Great Xia could take.
This idea seemed dumb and careless, but it was the only way for Ashoka now.
”I want to see exactly how many cities Great Xia can take down.”
