Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the white chief's tent of Ramode's tribe, Zhang Xiao was exchanging cups with a group of Bedouin chiefs.

    For Zhang Xiao¡¯s arrival, these Bedouin people burst out with great enthusiasm.

    Although Zhang Xiao brought few troops, the envoys who had witnessed the Imperial Army's annihilation of the Kurds told the senior leaders of their respective tribes about this matter in the shortest possible time.

    Although the number of Kurdish troops in the sneak attack was not large, it was still more than 2,000 people.

    Moreover, they also had a feeling at the time that the Imperial Army under Zhang Xiao was not doing its best.  The battle to annihilate the Kurds was fought very easily.

    So much so that they all have the illusion that even if the number of Kurds increases tenfold, they can still be wiped out by the Imperial Army.

    This feeling is very unreasonable, and even makes them feel a little strange.

    However, after witnessing the easy killing battles of the Imperial Army, everyone felt that maybe this kind of thing was not impossible.

    Therefore, after listening to their reports, the Bedouin tribal chiefs who migrated to Koso stopped their contempt.

    "Obviously, they felt that the Song Emperor's team could not be viewed in a normal light.

    But no matter what, the Song Empire¡¯s army is more powerful, which is still good for them.

    Who made them choose to join the Song Empire?

    Therefore, the more powerful the Song Empire becomes, the more they like to see it.

    ¡°At least, with a strong backer, people like them will be safer, right?

    It¡¯s just that the number of troops sent by the Song Empire is too small. It would be better if there were more.

    This is also a small disappointment for these Bedouin chiefs.

    Zhang Xiao smiled and talked to everyone one by one. The etiquette was also very decent, and he was not as arrogant as the Ottomans.

    This point has won the favor of many people.

    but.  Although Zhang Xiao was talking to these chiefs, his eyes fell on the girl Farie who was sitting next to him from time to time, looking extremely bored.

    Farie is indeed a pearl of the Bagir tribe. Although she is a bit boyish, she has exquisite facial features.

    Because of her pure Arab ancestry, she looks even more exotic.

    To be honest, the appearance of Farie attracted Zhang Xiao from the beginning.

    Although Zhang Xiao is a supporter of Chinese chauvinism, he also likes beautiful girls, doesn¡¯t he?  After all, he is a normal male, not that kind of incompetent guy.

    Of course.  This is just appreciation, there is no admiration in it.

    But if he was allowed to have sex with Farie, he wouldn't refuse.

    Well, if possible, it is not impossible to marry an Arab girl like Fariya.

    Anyway, it is normal for a capable man in this era to have several wives.

    If you insist on monogamy, no one will laugh at you.

    "However, Zhang Xiao knows.  A girl like Farie will be nothing more than a concubine in the future. The position of the head wife in the family will definitely need a girl of Chinese descent.

    However, he is just having some random thoughts now. It is still unknown whether he can get a handle on Farie.

    Farie looked at a certain man several times.  I have already felt it.

    Farie felt very impatient with this kind of gaze.

    However, on this occasion, it was not easy for her to do something rude.

    after all.  The people sitting here are all chiefs of various tribes, as well as powerful elders in the tribes.

    If she does something too rude, she will lose the face of the Bagir tribe and his father, right?

    so.  Farie could only pretend to turn a blind eye to a certain man's gaze from time to time.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? discovered that the little girl was obviously very impatient, but had to pretend to be a lady, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but secretly laugh.

    A very cute girl, but it¡¯s a pity that she is not of Chinese descent.

    All the people attending the meeting sat around the big tent, forming a big circle.

    In front of everyone, there was a small square wooden table with a lot of snacks piled on it.

    For example, some roasted lamb, some dried fruits, etc., there are not many varieties.

      After all, this is the early seventeenth century, not the highly civilized 21st century.

    Therefore, there cannot be any fruits or other foods.

    Being able to eat some dried fruits in the desert of this era is considered a very good treat.

    In this regard, Zhang Xiao is not picky.

    "What you mean is that the Governor has already reported it to the mainland. The Governor expresses great appreciation for the Bedouin's choice, and is also pleased with your correct choice."

    At this moment, Zhang Xiao was talking with Farie¡¯s father, Omar, the current chief of the Bagir tribe.

    In the circle where everyone was sitting, a dancer wearing a vaguely sultry gauze dress was dancing a sultry dance.

    In the corner of the big tent, several Arab musicians played bright music with a few very simple instruments.

    The dancer¡¯s dancing posture is very sultry, and every move she makes has a strong sense of charm.

    Even Zhang Xiao, who didn¡¯t pay too much attention, was attracted.

    Of course, Zhang Xiao¡¯s eyes did not stay on the dancer for too long, but he moved away after a while.

    However, this dancer didn¡¯t know why. She always came close to Zhang Xiao intentionally or unintentionally, dancing back and forth not far from where he was sitting.

    ¡°Obviously, this dancer is seducing him.

    Zhang Xiao just laughed it off in his heart.

    Now he still has very important things to talk about, but when this meeting is over, he doesn't mind having an intimate encounter with the dancer.

    There are no strict restrictions in the empire regarding such matters.

    Chief Oma, who was talking to Zhang Xiao, noticed Zhang Xiao's gaze and found that he was slightly interested in the dancer, so he secretly remembered it in his heart.

    At the same time, he also noticed that this young general from the Song Empire seemed to be more interested in his daughter Farie.

    This made Omar suddenly have some ideas in her heart.

    Of course, these are just some ideas now.  There are deeper things that he hasn't thought about yet.

    "The situation in Cuman is very unstable at the moment, which we don't want to see. As for the current situation in Cuman, I also heard Aziz talk about it on the way here, so I have some understanding.  Understood. So, now that you Bedouins have made your choice, the three major tribes are already enemies, right?"

    Zhang Xiao used a knife to cut off a strip of barbecue that was placed in front of him and put it in his mouth, then looked at Chief Omar and asked seriously.

    Perhaps because there was food in his mouth, his words were not very clear.

    However, this does not prevent Omar from hearing clearly.

    Because, behind Zhang Xiao.  There was also an Egyptian translator hired from Cairo.

    After the translator finished speaking, Amma nodded: "Yes, there is no peace between the three major tribes and us. Now for us Bedouins, there is no way out. Judging from the current situation,  There are only two ways out before us, leave Cuman immediately and move to other places, or simply join any one of the three major tribes."

    "But you chose our Song Empire."

    After Zhang Xiao¡¯s translator translated Omar¡¯s words, a smile broke out on his face.

    "We are unwilling to leave Cuman. After all, this is the place where our ancestors lived. And it is impossible for them to join the three major tribes. Because the three major tribes have feuds with us!"

    The Arab attendant beside him handed over a handkerchief at Zhang Xiao's signal.  After Zhang Xiao took it, he wiped his hands and threw it aside. Then he looked at Chief Omar seriously: "I'm not interested in some grudges between tribes. I'm here to take over all the rights of Cuman. After all, Cuman's  Dominion. The Ottomans have transferred it to us."

    "But I also understand that with the current situation, it is impossible to take over Cuman without going through a lot of blood and fire. The Tatanils, Bukuts, and Kopuyali people all have ambitions. They  I want to become the overlord of this desert after the Ottomans withdraw. Therefore, for those of us who have the right to rule, you can be considered their enemy."

    "So, you Bedouins have chosen to join the Song Empire, but do you know what this means next?"

    Facing Zhang Xiao¡¯s question, Chief Omar nodded again with a serious look.

    "Of course it's clear! We have surrendered to the Song Empire, so in your caseBetween ? and the three major tribes, we chose you.  Then, after the war breaks out between the Song Empire and the three major tribes, we will inevitably send troops to side with the Song Empire.  "

    The corners of Zhang Xiao's lips curled up: "That's right! Since you have chosen to take sides, you must take corresponding responsibilities. I can tell you responsibly that Cuman will definitely not be calm. Let's not talk about the three major tribes.  A war will break out in the future, and just after we enter Cuman, Cuman will also stir up a storm, so you must be mentally prepared."

    "Of course, you don't need to worry. I haven't put the three major tribes in my eyes yet. Although they are very powerful and invincible in their eyes, in my opinion they are simply vulnerable."

    Regarding Zhang Xiao¡¯s words, Omar was very unconvinced.

    Although he listened to Aziz¡¯s account of the Kurdish sneak attack, he knew that the combat effectiveness of Emperor Song¡¯s army was very strong.

    But, after all, that battle was between four thousand people and more than two thousand people.

    This kind of battle may not really prove that the Song Empire's army is so powerful.

    "Besides, it's child's play to have to fight against three major tribes with only four thousand people.

    At this moment, Chief Omar even felt that the young general of the Song Empire in front of him was taking things for granted (To be continued)
