Pauling looked coldly at the panicked Goa City, which is the central city of the entire Tik-controlled area, the capital of Goa Province, rich and comparable to the first-class mansion of the Central Province of Indean, known as rich in gold, the gold mines in the east and the gem producing areas in the south are rich and oily, just from the main street of Goa City, you can see a series of gold shop signs and gem shops can not see the end, mansions and mansions abound, beautiful and beautiful. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but today the bustling streets have become a mess, and the merchants who come and go are all frightened, and before it gets dark, the gates of the streets have begun to close, and the panic atmosphere that spreads like a plague is pervasive throughout the city of Goa.

A large group of soldiers who had followed Pauling had already put the whole post house on guard, and there were no outsiders in the whole post house, and now that the flames of war were about to burn here, no one wanted to stay here. Pauling paced in the courtyard a little impatiently, how come these stupid Tiks have not been involved until now? The news spread by the intelligence department is indeed enough to confuse the truth, causing the whole Goa city to panic, but this damn Farash has never been willing to accept his terms, is this guy really willing to be a prisoner of the Luzons? Pauling does not believe it.

Pauling has dealt with Farash many times for so long, if the leader of the Tik people was barely competent before the invasion of Hyderabad, except for some lofty ambitions, he couldn't see anything, but after the failure of the northern invasion and the double blow of the Western Frontier and the Komini people, the leader's spiritual defense line completely collapsed, if it wasn't for the fact that Bremer took on the responsibility of supporting the overall situation of the Tik tribe in time, I am afraid that the Tik people would fall apart if they couldn't even maintain it now. The Farash family should be said to have accumulated a huge amount of wealth over the past hundred years, and he will definitely not be willing to let this wealth fall into the hands of the Luzonians, with this wealth, it is more than enough to be able to live in peace and stability there for dozens of lifetimes, from yesterday's interview, Pauling has noticed that this guy has something faintly under his own persuasion, and the only thing he is worried about is whether the safety of his wealth can be guaranteed, right? But he seems to have no way out, and he has no other way out except to believe in himself. Of course, it is not impossible to protect his private property, but it requires the necessary price.

"Lord Bao, Chief Farush's personal butler has come to invite you to his inner mansion alone. The words of the pro-soldier made Pauling's heart happy, yesterday there was a guy Bremer, many things that could have been picked out could not be picked out, after all, this guy still has tens of thousands of Tik troops in his hands, and he has to be counted on to support him on the front line for a few days, and this guy seems to be a little unskilled, then he can't blame himself, with Farush's cooperation, everything is enough.

Stepping into Farush's inner mansion, Pauling was once again shocked by the opulence of these Indians, the whole courtyard was full of classical style of the Middle Continent, Pauling was very suspicious that the chief really had such a high level of appreciation, in his opinion, it was only more likely that he would be a vassal and elegant, but even so, the cost of such a courtyard alone was probably enough for a division for a year, and this was only the cost of building this courtyard.

Twelve jade flying heavens with different images surround the garden, the huge fountain sculpture in the center is a masterpiece at a glance, the sprayed spring is full of rich floral fragrance, there are some reddish petals on the pond in the pool, swimming fish are leisurely and comfortable in it, the waiter servant in brocade robe stands respectfully in front of the door, the guard with a knife and a gun is level-eyed, motionless, and there are different servants leading the way through the doors, which is enough to show the strict rules and regulations in the mansion of the great chief.

Pauling was finally able to sit one-on-one with the ninth generation chief of the Farash family, seeing the big chief in front of him who was a little depressed but his eyes were beating with unwilling light, Pauling was also unbearable in his heart, but now he couldn't do anything, the rule of the Farash family has ended, whether it is the Luzon people or the empire to become the new masters of this land, but there will definitely be no more this big chief, his best choice is to leave this land with the endless wealth left to him by his ancestors, and live a carefree rich life in peace, this kind of life of the jungle is not suitable for himAlthough he was once ambitious, it turned out that being too ambitious would only bring more pain to himself.

"Great Chief, it's just the two of us here, and I think we can talk openly and honestly about each other's conditions. I can tell you unambiguously that now the Luzon people are making great strides, maybe three days or even two days later, the footsteps of the Luzon army will step into the city, General Bremer's army will not be able to stop the Luzon footsteps, I believe General Bremer has already reported to you, Goa City is a pearl of the Tik tribe, so we don't want to see it fall prey to those barbaric and impolite Luzon, but now we can't help but think about something less pleasant, what do you think?" Pauling wanted to put forward the conditions straightforwardly, but considering the other party's mood and worried that the other party would be difficult to accept for a while, he had to choose some euphemistic sentences to avoid irritating the other party.

"Mr. Pauling, can't you really send troops to help us? I am willing to promise you any conditions, as long as you can help my Farash family to regain its former position. Biting his lip a little reluctantly, although he had lost a lot of weight in a few days, Chief Farush's eyes were still bright.

Pauling sneered in the depths of his heart, this guy is saying a good thing at this time, he lobbied the other party in every possible way in the hope that the other party can agree to let the garrison settle in, but this guy even has a strict limit on the number of garrisons in Lahore Province, and even sent an army to monitor the garrison in the western Xinjiang of Lahore Province, and the contact between the Taiga tribe and his own side is deliberately obstructed by this guy, if it is not for this guy's troubles, maybe his own situation is much better now, if he can let the Seventh Army enter as soon as possible, Pauling believes that at least Goa Province can be controlled by his own side, but now, if he wants to forcibly enter Goa, then it is inevitable that a fierce battle will break out here with the Luzon who are determined to win, and there is no danger to follow, and this task is too difficult for the Seventh Army, which has only tens of thousands of troops.

"Great Chief, it seems that your request has come a little too late, I have pointed out to you a long time ago that the Luzon people have been plotting for your land and wealth, but you have always been skeptical of our sincerity, I have offered you to sign a mutual assistance agreement and send troops to help you station in the border areas, but you always avoid talking about it, now the Luzon people are really coming, Pongon is lost, Xi Ze is lost, Lei Bo is lost, now it is Goa's turn, you should know that the Luzon people are not good men and women, and because of your suspicion and hesitation, I cannot ask His Royal Highness the King of Qin to send more troops in time, and now in a hurry, I can not do anything。 Pauling looked regretful, "Great Chief, let's be more practical, let's leave Goa first, and when the Empire's reinforcements arrive, we can make a comeback." ”

With a long breath of turbidity, Farash stared at Pauling's face for a long time before squeezing out a few words from between his teeth and said, "Mr. Pauling, you don't have to be like this, I don't believe that your Royal Highness the King of Qin will have such a good heart to help me regain what should belong to me, and you can put forward whatever conditions you have." ”

"Very well, Mr. Farush, if you had been so sensible earlier, I don't think the situation would have gotten so bad, do people have to suffer certain setbacks before they can come to their senses?" Shrugging his shoulders in a dashing manner, Pauling laughed: "Ming people don't talk secretly, our conditions are very simple, we can help you regain control of the entire Tik tribe, in exchange, Tik must sign a protection agreement with the Empire, and like your three northeastern provinces of Indean, it belongs to the Imperial Protectorate." ”

"Just this one condition?" Farash looked at Pauling with suspicion, although this condition was very harsh, but compared to the Luzon people to completely end their position, it seemed too merciful, at least the three northeastern provinces, the main settlement area of the Solian tribe, after being annexed to the Tang people, except for some administrative power reduction, on the surface, it did not seem to have too much loss, with the heart of their Royal Highness the King of Qin, such a condition seemed to be a little too generous. And now that their own territories have completely fallen into the hands of the Luzons, and the Tang people can take all this back from the Luzons, what is a protection treaty?

"Hehe, there's another condition, but I think since the Great Chief can accept the first condition, then this one is definitely not a problem. Pauling rubbed his hands together, as if he was embarrassed, as if he was thinking about how to speak.

Seeing this chief representative like this, Farash was a little puzzled, could this guy really have any unsavory requirements? How could he have such an expression?

Seeing Farash's suspicious expression, Pauling had no choice but to shake his head and speak: "Great Chief, it is not a simple matter to fight against the Luzonians, you also know that there will be a lot of sacrifices and sacrifices, uh, I heard that the nobles have had quite a lot of savings over the years, uh, this"
