    The old man Aziz from Bagir, after receiving Mabond's answer, if you look carefully at the indifferent smile on his face, you will find that it is much richer.

    "We, the Bagir tribe, have been living in the Cuman area for generations. Now that the Ottomans have given this land to you, you are already the owners of that land. For this reason, our Bagir tribe is also coming.  I want to meet you, don¡¯t I?¡±

    Mabond was unconvinced about the old man's remarks.

    If he believed this, he would be the biggest idiot.

    ¡°Is it just that you came to see us, and there is nothing else?¡± The corners of Mabond¡¯s mouth curled up, with a hint of ridicule on his face.

    Aziz was not angry about this.

    Because he is so big, if your tribe wants to survive, you must have good dealings with these people.

    Who made the Song Empire already have the sovereignty of that desert and become the master of it?

    And if tribes like Baygil are unwilling to listen to the Ottomans' proposal and leave the desert where their ancestors have lived for generations, they must have a good relationship with the Song Empire.

    "Otherwise, they would have no choice but to leave.

    But for the people of the Bagir tribe, they are not willing to leave the desert at all.

    You know, although their tribe is not big, they have been living in that desert for dozens of generations.

    In order to survive there, their ancestors shed a lot of blood.

    Therefore, they cannot give up no matter what.

    ??Besides, for them, there is actually no difference between the rule of the Ottomans or the rule of the Song Empire in a strict sense.

    MaBangde hopes that the other party will tell their purpose directly and not beat around the bush like this.

    Aziz also saw it.  These people are willing to speak directly, unlike the Ottomans who have to go around a lot.

    "There are many tribes living in that desert. The empire is the master now, so we people can be regarded as the subjects of the empire." Aziz said slowly.  "Of course I have some other reasons for coming here this time. But the most important thing is to inquire about other people in our alliance tribe and see what the empire's views and changes are on some things in this region in the future"

    There are almost more than a hundred tribes in the Cuman region, large and small, and there are very complex hostile relationships between tribes.

    It can be said that the stability of this region is very unstable.

    And, because of Arab religious reasons, they also want to know the future owner of this desert.  How will we deal with this issue?

    In addition, there are also a series of rules regarding taxes and whether they need to be changed.

    After all, what they are using now are the rules and regulations established by the Ottomans.

    Now that the Ottomans gave the Cuman region to the Song Empire, the Song Empire will definitely have to change it after taking over, right?

    Is it difficult?  Will the empire continue to manage the desert according to the rules left by the Ottomans?

    If that¡¯s the case, it¡¯s certainly a good thing.

    But it¡¯s impossible to think about this with your knees.

    So, everyone needs to know some of the attitude of the Song Empire, and be able to make some preparations when the time comes.

    At the same time, those tribes that are still hesitating can also decide whether they want to awaken as proposed by the Ottomans.  Change a place to live.

    Regarding the Song Empire, the Arab tribes in the Cuman area have also heard of it, but they have never had any dealings with it.

    They only learned about the existence of the Song Empire through some businessmen.

    Although the businessmen did not hesitate to praise it, it was their family's opinion after all.

    ??????????????????????????? What kind of people in the Song Empire are like? You always have to deal with them personally to know, right?

    Therefore, Aziz, as the envoy of several allied tribes, came to the Cairo Concession with his caravan and guards.

    "Of course the Ottoman regulations will be abolished. We have our own laws." After hearing the other party's intention, Mabond nodded and replied.  "At the same time, we also respect your beliefs. Please rest assured on this point."

    Regarding the issue of faith in the Arab region, Mabande certainly knows that it is a matter that cannot be touched.

    Unless he is mentally retarded, he will not touch matters related to his faith.

    You must know that although the beliefs in the Arab region are different from those in EuropeThe beliefs are almost the same.

    But.  Arabs are crazier than Europeans.

    Therefore, if it is not handled well, it will have a great impact on the development of the empire in the Cuman region.

    And Mabond said he respected their beliefs, which actually made Aziz relieved.

    What he was most worried about was that after the Song Empire took over the Cuman Desert, they would not allow them to continue to believe in their ¡®Lord¡¯ and restrict them from worshiping.

    "I praise the wisdom of the empire. On behalf of the Horde Alliance, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks."

    "No need to thank me, this is the power you have." Mabond waved his hand and said.

    "Some merchants who have been to Cairo said that they can buy fine weapons and armor here, as well as some other very precious commodities."

    "Oh, are you interested in these?" Mabond raised his eyebrows.  "It stands to reason that you will be regarded as subjects under the rule of the empire in the future. As long as you continue to live in the Cuman area, you will have some discounts on these products. This can be regarded as a benefit."

    Aziz was stunned when he heard this.

    Immediately, the smile on his face grew stronger.

    He was not a fool, so of course he understood the meaning behind it.

    ¡°Obviously this is telling him that it is good for the people of the empire.

    For those of them who live centered around their respective tribes, it doesn¡¯t matter who rules them.

    But if the ruler can bring benefits to them, then this becomes important.

    Under the rule of the Ottomans, these tribes had little benefit.

    Except for the constant payment of taxes and their pitiful specialties, the Ottomans will not give them any benefits at all.

    Even when they wanted to buy weapons and armor from the Ottomans, as well as some daily necessities.  The Ottomans would also sell for much higher prices than normal.

    Although I am very unhappy about this, what can these tribes do?

    There is nothing in the desert except patches of yellow sand.

    But they also need to eat, drink, and eat, and they need weapons and armor to fight against other tribes.

    So, even the Ottomans are evil.  They could only hold their noses and admit it.

    During the years under the rule of the Ottomans, these desert tribes in remote areas used countless beautiful tribal girls and the blankets that the women worked hard to make in exchange for the pitiful commodities of the Ottomans.

    ¡°We need weapons and sophisticated armor, but we don¡¯t know the price?¡±

    Mabond quoted a price that left Aziz speechless.  Because Aziz never imagined that weapons and armor would be so low.

    The price quoted by Mabande can be said to be two-thirds lower than that of the Ottomans.

    This kind of benefit is truly unimaginable to Aziz.

    ¡°The price is very low, right?¡± Mabond looked at Aziz with a big mouth and an incredulous look on his face and smiled.  "Although the price is very low, we will sell it according to the number of warriors your tribe has. It is impossible to sell it to you without limit. Because we also want to prevent you from taking advantage of this benefit to earn the price difference and undermine the empire's arms trade."

    "Will you really sell us weapons and armor at such a low price?"

    Mabond nodded: "There is no need to deceive you about this, old man."

    After receiving the answer, Aziz took a deep breath, and then put away the indifferent smile on his face.

    "We, the Bagir tribe, are willing to become vassals and subjects of the empire. As long as everything is as the governor said, we will be fair to us and respect our beliefs. At the same time, we will enjoy benefits"

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    It seems that these people came to join the empire in a hurry, and they made this choice only after seeing the benefits.

    But it doesn¡¯t matter, who in this world doesn¡¯t live for profit.

    In this regard, Mabond did not look down on the other party.

    "Please rest assured that our empire is absolutely fair. Provided that you can abide by the laws and rules of the empire, then nothing will be a problem."

    Mabond also responded seriously.

    "My Lord Governor, the Cuman area is not very peaceful now. I think if possible, it would be better to send troops to receive it as soon as possible."

    Since he has already planned to join the Song Empire.  Aziz must show some sincerity.

    The old man is not a fool either.Although I don¡¯t know the Eastern proverbs, I also know what I should say or do at this time.

    "How do you say this?" Mabond looked at Aziz with some confusion.

    Speak the truth.  Aziz came to Cairo this time not only to contact some people from the Song Empire to see if they were easy to deal with, but also to seek help.

    This includes, if the people of the Song Empire are very powerful, then they will come over and win the support of the empire to fight against their hostile tribes.

    The reason why the Ottomans were not chosen is because the tribal alliance that Aziz knew was really clear about the virtues of the Ottomans.

    ¡°If we seek help from the Ottomans, their tribes will definitely be chewed up to the bone.

    However, during this period, when the Ottomans spread the news that the Cuman Desert region had changed owners, large-scale conflicts once again broke out in the Cuman region, which was not very peaceful.

    There are constant wars between various tribes, and there is a faint trend of expansion.

    ¡°Obviously, the Ottomans are behind this.

    At the same time, there are also some tribes who use this opportunity to fish in troubled waters or take revenge.

    Although the Ottomans¡¯ control over the Cuman region was originally quite weak, because of the presence of the Ottomans, everyone was able to exercise some restraint.

    However, now that the Ottomans no longer care about it, the entire Cuman region has suddenly become a place without rules.

    Aziz¡¯s tribal alliance also suffered such an attack and was caught off guard and was in danger.

    "Someone wants to take the opportunity to occupy the Cuman Desert and become the only king there. They don't want the empire to take over smoothly" Aziz's next answer made Mabond's eyes flash, and then he sneered again and again.
