Chapter 890 Paying the Price

"Your Highness, they have withdrawn!"

A hot air balloon was floating in the sky.

At this moment, the balloon soldiers on it kept sending flag signals to transmit information.

From high altitude, they could observe the whole situation.

After sending Xu Ke and his party to Songyang Pass, these balloon soldiers stayed to investigate.

"The rest will be left to Xu Ke." Zhao Xu snorted.

He had no plan to pursue.

The Tubo area is too vast, not just a small area like Yizhou.

And the altitude of Songyang Pass is already very high.

Without adaptive training, entering high-altitude areas and engaging in intense exercise such as fighting will result in a lot of non-combat casualties.

Many soldiers of the Ashur tribe came from small countries around Tubo.

After occupying Tubo, they even incorporated the Tubo army.

The environment of the Tubo plateau is obviously more suitable for them.

In the next hour, the soldiers of the royal palace clearly felt that the resistance had decreased.

Finally, the Beidi soldiers and Nanliang soldiers escaped directly from the trench.

After crossing the trench, they successfully entered Songyang Pass.

"Your Highness, you only need to repair Songyang Pass and leave more than 10,000 soldiers stationed there. The remaining troops can be transferred to Yunzhou to recover Bazhou and Yunzhou. In this way, the civil strife will be settled." Zhao Xu and Chang Wei also came to Songyang Pass after the soldiers entered the city.

Climbing the city wall that was almost bombed into ruins, Chang Wei looked towards the direction of Tubo and said.

Zhao Xu nodded, "Leave 30,000 people and conduct practical training on the plateau on weekdays to prepare for the capture of Tubo in advance. Other soldiers should also rotate here for training."

"Yes, Your Highness." Chang Wei responded, and he was excited. "Your Highness is really a great lord in the world. Since ancient times, there have been only a handful of dynasties that can control Tubo. This time, our Dasong will regain its glory."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu smiled, "This is nothing. In the future, the territories controlled by the Northern Di and the Far North territories seized by the Russians will all belong to us, and as for overseas, there are more."

For hundreds of years, this world has been a world where the Westerners have been rampant.

They enslaved one race after another, and almost wiped out one race after another.

Occupied most of the rich territories in the world.

If Lenghan allowed the Westerners to occupy these places.

Then, just like today, more than a hundred years later, the Ansa people will control most of the world's resource areas.

Use the advantages left by their ancestors to suppress Dasong.

So, he must not let this happen.

In this worst era, whoever can expand the territory, as long as he can keep it, will eventually belong to him.

Besides, he is too lazy to be a gentleman.

Clearly, he just wants to snatch their colonies from the Westerners.

To deal with robbers, you can only use robbery methods, no need to talk to them.

Barbarians fear power but not virtue.

In modern times, those countries that were once colonized by Britain, how many have backbone, are still kneeling and licking the Western Land.

Especially Tianzhu here, contemporary India.

At present, they are not ashamed, but proud, complacent about being a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, and put themselves in the Western camp.

He also pursued the colonial annexation policy left by Britain, invading everywhere and occupying other people's territories.

It is based on this that after he drove away the Westerners, he would replace them and make these places in line with the interests of Dasong.

After all, this is the world.

As long as you are strong, everything is right.

Even if you spit on the ground, someone will come to whitewash it and say that you spit elegantly.

As he was thinking, Chang Wei saluted him and said loudly, "I will always follow your highness and expand the territory for your highness."

"It's just around the corner. After taking over Bazhou and Yunzhou, we will ask our enemies for debts. Whether it is Beidi or Xitu, we must repay what we owe." Zhao Xu smiled.

After saying this, the two went down the city wall.

Zhao Xu decided to live in Yiyang City for a while, waiting for the results of the assassination of the four courtyards, and then return to Yancheng to deploy the second industrial revolution and the next strategy.

The war in Dasong was settled, but the real war has just begun.

In order to safeguard the interests of Dongtu and the world hegemony.

The Western world is bound to fight him to the death.

And he also wants to collect debts from the Western world. Someone has to compensate for the internal consumption caused by this civil strife.

As for Bazhou and Yunzhou, he will not go there.

These two areas can be left to Chang Wei and Ma Han to pacify.

Both the Liang family and the Fan family are at the end of their strength and can't make much waves.

After deciding this matter, he went to Yiyang under the protection of 3,000 soldiers.

At this time, the defeated army led by Ashur and Orski was heading towards Sacheng.

The border between Tubo and Yizhou is also surrounded by mountains.

After withdrawing from Songyang Pass, the army will go along the mountain road to the Tubo Plateau.

One part of them will go to Sacheng, and the other part will go north to the grassland.

As they marched, pairs of eyes in the mountains and forests were observing them through telescopes.

This is Xu Ke and his team.

"Great, Dou Wei, Xiao Cheng, and Ashur are all walking together." Xu Ke never took his binoculars away from his eyes.

In his field of vision, Dou Wei, Xiao Cheng and other core members of the clan, as well as Ashur and others, were in the center of the team.

At this moment, they were constantly approaching the mines they had laid.

This was a minefield that was a hundred meters long. As long as they walked in, they would be dead.

Ashur and others were obviously not prepared for the upcoming danger.

The team advanced slowly, and soon they stepped into the trap set by Xu Ke and others.

At this moment, Xu Ke decisively ordered to pull the trigger of the mine.

Under the pull of the dark force members, long thin ropes bounced from the ground.

At this time, Ashur and others realized the danger.

But it was too late, and the loud noise and flames covered the valley.

A huge flame rose within a hundred meters.

When the smoke cleared, the hundred-meter mountain road was full of corpses.
