"Oh, is there anything else like this happening?"

When Mabond heard Aziz talk about it, he became serious.

Ma Bond was well aware of the importance of the Cuman region, knowing that it was a region rich in oil resources, and if it was to be taken over by the Empire, then the Empire could begin to obtain an endless supply of oil from the Cumenistans.

With this oil, the empire itself will be abundant, and it will be able to develop the empire's plans more steadily.

The Ottomans did not know what kind of treasure lay beneath the desert, so they were easily taken out and exchanged for the money and weapons they needed.

In the same way, the Arab tribes who lived there could not have known what kind of wealth was hidden in the desert beneath their feet.

And in the Cuman region, the eyes are full of yellow sand, which is of no value at all.

Therefore, Ma Bond originally thought that it should be easy to control the Cuman region.

But now it doesn't seem to be what he imagined.

Why is this happening?

Ma Bond was a little confused.

However, he will not be able to grasp the truth of the matter in a short time.

Therefore, he could only get some information he needed from the old man of the Bajir tribe who was sitting in front of him, that is, Aziz, and then make some judgments.

"These are the Ottomans' doing."

In the face of Ma Bangde's doubts, the old man Aziz said the driving force behind this matter.

But why did the Ottomans do this?

You know, there is no value in the Cumans, and the Ottomans will not do that, right?

Ma Bond was puzzled.

"Why did the Ottomans do this?"

Marbond asked.

Aziz shook his head and said, "I don't really know the reason for this, but I don't want the Ottomans to give up the Cuman region. Otherwise, they wouldn't have announced that everyone had changed owners. In private, he said something that made it easy to be ambitious. ”

Ma Bond quickly mentally analyzed the information, and guessed why the Ottomans had done this.

Soon, Ma Bond guessed that one was eight or nine and ten.

Come to think of it, the Ottomans were actually very reluctant to give up the barren land of the Cuman region.

Don't look at the Cuman, there is sand and no products, but after all, it is also the land of the Ottomans.

When the Ottomans got Cuman, they had to pay some blood.

But now, it was so easily handed over to the empire, so the Ottomans must have felt very uncomfortable.

But. The Cuman region was destined to be handed over to the Empire.

Otherwise, the empire would not have fulfilled the agreement it had signed and lent such a large loan to the Ottomans, thereby alleviating the Ottomans' financial crisis.

However, if you can secretly make a stumbling block, it is still possible to make the empire unhappy here in Cuman.

I think it was under such a mind that the Ottomans came up with such a state of affairs.

Of course, this does not exclude the possibility of borrowing money from the Ottomans. Stabilize the economic crisis in the country. Then the Ottomans would have used some other means to regain the possibility of retaking the Cuman region.

After all, there is no real friendship between countries, and the treaties and agreements signed can be torn apart.

Who knows what the Ottomans will do then.

To know. Now, when the empire is in turmoil in northern Ottoman countries, it is also secretly playing an unknown trick.

Therefore, if you think about yourself like a person, you can't think of the Ottomans as too simple and beautiful.

And the Cuman area is a yellow sand. There is nothing of value, but there are many tribes of all sizes living there in the Cuman region.

These tribes have nothing individually, but taken together. It also has a large population.

And in this world, which can be regarded as a cold weapon age, the population can be regarded as valuable.

So, could it be that the Ottomans did this kind of thing secretly because of the population of these tribes?

Well!

If you think about it, there should be such a possibility.

Ma Bond's heart was quickly thinking about the possibilities, as well as some key questions and speculations and judgments.

If he can be appointed governor of the Cairo Concession, then Ma Bond must have something special about him.

Otherwise, why did so many Chinese people choose him as the governor?

Therefore, Ma Bond has analyzed a lot of problems.

And those tribes in the Cuman region did not fall into the hands of the Ottoman Empire so easily.

They have lived in this desert for generations, and if they want to get these tribes and people, then they have to use some extraordinary means to get them.

At the same time, these tribes must not be allowed to hate the Ottoman side.

So, how do you do that?

In fact, it is also very simple, that is, war and turmoil.

In any case, although there were killings among the tribes living in the Cuman region, people still wanted a stable living environment.

Besides, vendettas between tribes, that doesn't happen every day.

Even if such a thing happens, there will only be a few people who will die in Dingtian, and the impact on various tribes is not very much.

However, when the balance of the region is upset, and the laws and rules do not exist. Then this area will be completely different, and it can even be said that it will be a hell on earth.

Once such a problem arises, then these tribes have to start thinking seriously and planning for survival.

Stay, swept away by the turmoil in the Cuman region and shed the last drop of blood of the tribe, or move to a peaceful place where the tribe can live in peace.

Like these two choices, I think that as long as the tribal leaders are not idiots, they should know which one is the right choice.

Of course, those who are full of ambition and some old-fashioned and stubborn people are exceptions.

And between the tribes that remained. Because if there is no restraint, then war will definitely break out between each other.

As for the owners of the land, they won't think about it.

For those who are ambitious, as long as they can take Cuman and conquer all the tribes.

Even if the people of the Song Empire came to take over the Cuman region, they could handle it.

After all, these people don't know much about the Song Empire, and they don't know how powerful the Song Empire is.

So, it's no surprise that some of these ideas will arise.

Ma Bond, who has figured this out, already has some calculations in his heart.

Besides. Doesn't the old man sitting in front of him prove that things are not incorrigibly bad?

Some people have ambitions, some people want to take advantage of the chaos to avenge the feud between the tribes, and some people see an opportunity and want to get some suitable benefits.

Everyone's thoughts are different, and everyone's thoughts are different.

"Come to think of it, the Ottomans are unwilling to hand over the Cuman region to us, that's why they made such a mess, right?"

Ma Bond sneered.

To be honest, he didn't have much affection for the Ottomans himself.

Descendants of the Turks. It stands to reason that there is an enmity with the Chinese.

As a supporter of Great Chinese chauvinism, how could he have a good impression of the Turks.

"It's the wise Governor."

Aziz hurriedly complimented.

Ma Bond waved his hand: "What wisdom, what you said so clearly, if I can't see this." Then I'm really a pig. ”

Ma Bond was not carried away by the compliments of the old man Aziz.

"Looks like you're going to join the Empire?"

As for Aziz's intention, Ma Bond also guessed at this time.

"We learned about the strength of the empire through which merchants. So. For the Cuman region under the rule of the empire, we are full of hope. ”

Aziz nodded in response.

"Who doesn't want to be vassalized to the strong? We also wanted to have a stable, peaceful and peaceful living environment, but the Ottomans could not do that. So ......"

"So you want us to be able to do it?" , Ma Bond smiled.

"Yes, so to speak." , Aziz admitted. "However, we still want to see you show this kind of strength, and then we can really make up our minds."

Yes, if you don't show some strength for people to see, then how can people really take refuge.

For example, the arrival of Aziz and them is nothing more than to see if the people of the Song Empire are really as powerful as those merchants say.

If that weren't the case at all, Aziz and the others would have found another way.

"You'll see, and you won't be disappointed. I have a corps of 4,000 men at hand, which should be enough to stabilize the situation in the Cuman region. At the same time, I also hope that you can send a few people to be guides to provide us with some convenience. ”

"You don't have to say what you want, when the Cuman region is stabilized, you will get what you want. I also dare to promise you that the Cumans under the rule of the empire will become very rich, and the people of your tribe will also become rich, and their lives will be dozens of times better than they are now. ”

There was no need for Aziz to talk about any conditions, and Ma Bond dared to make such a promise.

The intense confidence that was released on him made Aziz's eyes widen, and at the same time, his mouth could not be closed for a long time.

"I know you don't believe in the empty words, so let's take you to see the army in my hands first."

Ma Bond felt that he should let these dirt buns open their eyes first.

Otherwise, they wouldn't believe what they promised.

And Aziz had a lot of words before he could say them, and he was blocked by Ma Bond.

Originally, Aziz also wanted to use some of the advantages of the tribe to talk to the other party. Expecting to be able to get some promises of benefits, but the other party didn't give him a chance at all.

This disappointed Aziz and made him a little uncomfortable.

The people of the Song Empire are too arrogant, right?

Do they think the Cuman region is really that easy to get?

It's okay, let them suffer a little first, and then the benefits they can get here will be greater.

At the same time, he also wanted to see what the army at the governor's disposal was like, and why it made him so confident.

Moreover, there are only 4,000 people, which is nothing in the Cuman region.

However, there are some things that Aziz is too lazy to say.

Let these Song people be arrogant for a while, and when they suffer losses, will they be able to open their mouths soon?

Seriously, they've been living here in the concession for a while.

From these observations, Aziz knows very well that the empire is rich.

You know, Cairo is just a small concession, and I heard that on another continent in the distant ocean, it is the heart of the empire.

And the concession is so prosperous, so as the heart of the local empire, won't it be even more prosperous?

At the same time, it was a good thing that the Song Empire was rich.

When the time comes, they will be able to get more and better benefits from the hands of the empire, right?

It's just that what Aziz doesn't know is that the empire is so powerful that he can't imagine it at all...... (To be continued......)
