The captured commander did not escape the fate of death in the end.

After he was no longer able to provide more information, the two young Imperial officers who were in charge of interrogating him gave him a good deal as he had promised him.

After all, there is no deep hatred with this commander, so there is no need to use special means to make him die.

Everyone is in a different position, so it can be said that there is no private hatred.

Some of the previous interrogation methods were just to obtain information.

Therefore, it is completely unnecessary to torture him to death by such special means.

When the Commander died, a relieved smile appeared on his face, for he thought that he would finally be free from the 'terrible' interrogation.

Although his interrogators did not use cruel means and methods, the alternative methods they used still made him unbearable.

"The Tatanirs are going to do something to the Bukuts, and it is not clear what kind of agreement the Tatanirs have reached with the Kopoyali in private. Ironically, the Bukuts knew nothing about this, and had been completely deceived by the Tatanirs. “

After listening to the report, Zhang Xiao quickly analyzed it in his heart, and also informed Aziz.

For Zhang Xiao's analysis, Aziz deeply agreed.

Yes, because of his knowledge of the Tatanirs, Aziz thinks that this is not the case.

Who here in the Cuman Desert doesn't know, dealing with the Tatanirs, you have to be on guard against them.

The title of the cunning fox in the desert refers to the Tatanirs.

The Tatanirs, in particular, are most famous for their style of going back on their word.

Therefore, don't look at the fact that the Tatanirs are ostensibly befriending the Bukuts, and have also sent the daughters of their own tribal chiefs to each other.

However, in the desert world, women have the least status.

If it is possible to finally achieve hegemony in the Cuman region. What does it matter if you sacrifice a few women?

Even if it was the daughter of a Tatanir chieftain, it was worth it.

For the Arab men of this era, women were no different from camels and goods in their eyes. If anything, it's that women can talk and sometimes bring some special joy to themselves.

But women have no status in this period, and it is also very realistic and real.

Ordinary women and slave girls and daughters of chiefs, there was no difference in this point.

At critical times, they can be sacrificed.

It was with this that the Tatanirs paralyzed the Bukuts.

Let the Bukuts really think that the Tatanirs are going to unite with them to deal with the Kopyali.

Zhang Xiao is not like Aziz. He is a native who has lived in Cuman all his life.

The reason why there is such a judgment is because Zhang Xiao got a lot of information about the three major tribes of Cuman from the mouth of a dead commander.

In addition, Aziz also told himself in detail about the situation of the three major tribes, so after taking it all together, Zhang Xiao made such a judgment.

There is nothing wrong with the three tribes in the Cuman region being the strongest, but there must be a division between the strong and the weak among the three tribes.

The Tatanirs were the weakest, and could not be compared to the Bukuts and Kopoyali in terms of population, warriors, and vassals.

So, in this imminent war of Cuman hegemony. The Tatanirs had the least advantage among the three major tribes.

After all, war depends on people and materials. Because this is the most crucial thing that can sustain the war, and without this, there would be no way to go to war.

Meantime. If it's two tribes fighting for hegemony, then it's all right.

But here in Cuman, three tribes are about to compete for hegemony.

Then, the problem in front of the three major tribes arises. They must choose one of the temporary alliances to get rid of the other target.

Zhang Xiao judged that the Tatanirs had secretly allied with the Kopyali to deal with the Bukuts in addition to the information revealed by the commander earlier, and some of his own speculations.

First of all. Like the Tatanirs, the Kopyali tribe did not have as many people and warriors as the Bukuts.

That is, the population and warriors of the Bukuts, in fact, were the most powerful of the three major tribes.

In such a situation, as long as you are a normal person, you should know how to choose.

Two weaker ones join forces and take out the self-reliant people together.

Then, the two weak ones will fight again, which is the best option.

So, how do you unite the strongest tribe and defeat another weak tribe, and then look back and deal with the strongest tribe?

There is only one hegemon in the Cuman region.

The Tatanirs were also reluctant to become vassals of others, especially of the Bukuts.

After all, the Tatanirs also have the strength to become the hegemon, don't they?

So, at such a time, why don't they bother about it?

People are ambitious, especially when they see hope and opportunity.

Therefore, the best method and strategy is to get rid of the Bukuts first.

As long as the Tatanirs are not stupid and the Kopoyari are not idiots, then both of them should know how to choose.

At this time, Aziz opened his mouth and responded to Zhang Xiao: "You are right, according to the virtues of the Tatanirs, they can indeed do such a treacherous thing. Not to mention that their current friendship with the Bukuts is itself a conspiracy with ill intentions. However, I have to admit that if the Tatanirs really choose to join forces with the Kopyali to deal with the Bukuts, then they have made the right choice. “

Aziz sighed as he took a deep breath at the end.

Yes, the population and number of warriors of the Bukuts are half more than that of the Tatanirs. It is also one-third more than the Kopyali, and it can be said that no matter which of the two tribes is opposed, these two tribes cannot compete with them.

Only when the two tribes unite will they have the advantage of defeating the Bukuts.

After the Bukuts were defeated, the Tatanirs and Kopyali were able to confidently start a struggle for supremacy in the Cuman region and decide the final victory.

Moreover, there is not much difference in the strength of the tribes of the two sides. It's better than facing the Bukut tribe alone.

Besides, when they jointly eliminate the Bukuts, the two sides can also continue to absorb and digest the power of the Bukuts in the battle to strengthen themselves.

So, it's a good deal.

In short, cooperation is a two-way benefit, and a division is a two-loser.

Of course, the Tatanirs have such intentions, and while taking action, they are also willing to pay for it.

The chief sacrificed even his own daughter. I have to say that it is really a character.

You know, once the war begins, and when the paralyzed Bukuts come to their senses, the poor woman will be killed.

The deceived Bukuts will definitely vent on this woman, and this can be imagined on their knees.

However, this is not a matter of concern to me.

Aziz also quickly began a long-term analysis and consideration of this news in his heart.

"The Tatanirians are doing a good job, and the Koppelians have seen that. But what makes me strange is that. Are the Bukuts really that gullible as easily? Could it be that they could not think of this, and get into the full set of the Tatanirs? ”

Zhang Xiao looked at Aziz with some confusion and asked.

Yes, Zhang Xiao pondered, if he was a high-ranking Bukut. Then he'll take that into account as well.

Because his own tribe is the strongest, then he will definitely be feared by the other two tribes.

In particular, it is even more impossible to be ambiguous on the issue of competing for regional hegemony.

There are many ways at which people can use to achieve victory.

Wise man. Then it should be known that the Tatanirs, the weakest of the people, should first be destroyed and their tribal population and warriors should be annexed to strengthen themselves. Make yourself stronger.

After that, wouldn't it be easier to deal with the Kopari?

It's a pretty obvious thing.

Well, it is impossible for the Bukuts not to see this.

If the Bukuts do not do this, then they will definitely face a confrontation between the two tribes, and only then will the two tribes be able to move from disadvantage to advantage.

Hearing this, Aziz smiled strangely.

"If it had been decades ago, the Bukuts would not have been fooled. But I think this Tataniel conspiracy will be successful. ”

Aziz's response made Zhang Xiao very puzzled.

"Oh, why do you say that?"

Aziz explained: "Your Excellency, you don't know, the chief of the Bukut people today is a guy who only knows how to eat, drink and be merry, and those high-ranking people only know that they are drunk and dreaming of death, and they are drunk all day long. If the Tatanirs are willing to endure humiliation and bear the burden to curry favor with them, then I dare say that this Tatanir conspiracy will definitely succeed. ”

"The top brass of the Bukuts will be deceived by the illusion before them, and they will not be able to see through the Tatanir conspiracy. As long as the Tatanirs are willing to pay for it, there is no reason why the Bukuts should not be fooled. ”

Although he has some understanding of the situation of the three major tribes in the Cuman region, Zhang Xiao is still not very clear about such deep-seated problems.

Only someone like Aziz could have known.

At this time, after the Kurt cavalry was defeated, the Imperial soldiers who had lost their owners had gathered their camels returned.

They found about 900 camels, and the remaining 1,000 tribes, except for those who died, had run away without a trace and could not be recovered.

"My lord, we have gathered all the camels around."

The sound of the report interrupted the conversation between Zhang Xiao and Aziz, and when he heard this, Zhang Xiao smiled at Aziz: "Let's continue the question just now, now I ask you to do me a small favor, I hope you can send some people to teach the soldiers under my command, so that they can control these camel ......" (to be continued......
