Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Strictly speaking, the area of ????the Cuman Desert is not very large, because it was originally the Kuwait area in later generations or another time and space.

    There are many Arab countries in the surrounding area, as well as some powerful tribal alliances.

    Therefore, the turmoil in the Cuman region will definitely attract the attention of these forces.  Especially the Ottoman Empire, which provoked this dispute, paid even more attention to this.

    Originally, the Ottoman Empire was very resentful about abandoning the Cuman region for special reasons.

    It is precisely because of this that the Ottoman Empire provoked turmoil and disputes here after withdrawing from Cuman, which caused a lot of trouble for the empire to enter.

    At that time, the Ottomans¡¯ plan was very simple, which was to create trouble for the Song Empire.

    Furthermore, if the Song Empire cannot control the situation in Cuman, the Ottoman Empire may be able to bring the Cuman region back under its control by then.

    I have to say that the Ottoman Empire made a very good plan.

    However, they did not expect that the Song Empire did not care at all about this little trouble and would not care.

    Governor Mabande of the Cairo Concession also guessed the intentions of the Ottomans and was very disdainful of their little idea.

    After all, it was the Ottomans themselves who came to the concession to ask for financial assistance in exchange for Cuman.

    And he also provided assistance according to the needs of the Ottomans.

    So, in exchange for financial assistance, the Cuman area was voluntarily transferred by the Ottomans.

    But now, the Ottomans actually don¡¯t want to let go, which is a bit unreasonable.

    You know, financial assistance has already been given to the Ottomans.

    The Ottomans, who had received the money, were burning bridges across the river.

    Fortunately, Mabande did not make things easier for the Ottomans. He secretly funded the insurgents in the northern part of the Ottoman Empire, causing them to cause unrest in the northern border of the Ottoman Empire, making it impossible for the Ottomans to continue focusing on the Cuman region.

    And.  With the secret help of Mabond, the rebels who were originally from the northern part of the Ottoman Empire actually occupied the Hungarian Empire, and at the same time, based on this, they threatened the security of the northern part of the Ottoman Empire.

    Because the rebels were originally a group living under the oppression of the Ottoman Empire, their hatred for the Ottomans can be said to be higher than the sky, deeper than the sea, and irreconcilable.

    ¡°Otherwise, they wouldn¡¯t have rioted.

    The main reason is that the Ottomans oppressed them too much and these people couldn't bear it anymore.

    So, after such a group of people owns a territory.  The threat to the Ottoman Empire was very serious.

    It is precisely because of the existence of such a factor that the Ottomans are now really powerless to deal with the Cuman region they abandoned.

    What they can do now is just to pay attention. As for some actual things, they are powerless.

    After all, all their energy is now focused on how to deal with the Principality of Hungary occupied by the rebels.

    You must know that with the Principality of Hungary as their territory, the rebels can rest and accumulate strength.

    This is different from those wandering rebel troops who have no territory.  It is very threatening.

    If you don¡¯t solve this force, then give them some time to develop slowly.  The northern frontier of the Ottoman Empire will never find peace.

    And the Ottomans.  There will also be a heavy price to pay for this, that is, all military power and economy must be devoted to dealing with issues and things in northern Xinjiang.

    This is something the Ottomans do not want to see.

    "Besides, these insurgents have been dealt with.  You can also easily take the territory of the Principality of Hungary into your hands.  This is a very good opportunity, and the Ottoman rulers will not forgive themselves if they miss it.

    Of course.  The ¡®boss¡¯ of the Principality of Hungary, which is the European church group, will not remain indifferent to this.  After all, they couldn't just give up the territory of the Principality of Hungary.

    The Ottoman Empire was also very aware of this.

    However, now the military forces of the church group have been involved in the war with Portugal and France.  There is no extra military force left to retake the Principality of Hungary.

    Therefore, this gave the Ottoman Empire a great opportunity.

    As long as it can be done before the church military group has the strength to retake the Principality of Hungary.??Just get rid of the original Northern Xinjiang rebels who occupied the Principality of Hungary, and occupy the Principality of Hungary at the same time.  So even if the church military group conflicts with the Ottoman Empire in the future, the Ottoman Empire can deal with it calmly.

    Anyway, now the Ottoman Empire has broken with the church military group, and conflicts have begun in the Mediterranean.

    Moreover, the former Grand Duke of the Principality of Hungary led his army back from the front lines of the Portuguese-French battlefield and was completely wiped out. Therefore, the church military group will no longer be able to mobilize forces to deal with the Principality of Hungary for a long time.  things.

    Therefore, the Ottoman Empire must seize the entire opportunity.

    And all of this is exactly what Mabond wants to see in the Cairo Concession, especially what Mabond hopes most for the Ottomans to focus and energy on dealing with the rebels in the Principality of Hungary.

    hey-hey!

    It would become a meat grinder, trapping the limited military power of the Ottomans.  When their military power suffers heavy losses, some domestic opposition voices will arise one after another.

    By that time, the turbulent Ottoman Empire will be in turmoil.

    Split is not impossible.

    Since the Ottomans want to take over the Yin Empire, don¡¯t blame yourself now for taking action and causing some big trouble for the Ottomans.

    Therefore, the situation here in Cuman is in full swing, and the Ottomans have no energy to participate. At most, they can only pay attention.

    As for the forces outside Cuman, except for the Ottoman Empire, they do not dare to act rashly because they do not understand some of the internal affairs of the Cuman region.

    Of course, it¡¯s also because Cuman is really very barren and has little production.  Therefore, even if they join in, for these forces, the gains outweigh the losses.

    So, everyone is just watching the excitement and paying attention to the progress of the war.

    ?? If Cuman is a fertile land and has a large amount of mineral resources, then this matter will be different.

    But in fact, apart from the endless sand, there is really nothing here.

    Therefore, for such a barren land, it is simply impossible for major forces to participate.

    Only the Song Empire knew what kind of wealth was buried under this desert and would join this war.

    And how many countries like the Song Empire can there be in this world?

    After all, the Song Empire was cheating.

    Let¡¯s not mention the attention of surrounding forces to the Cuman area. Just say that after Zhang Xiao and Farie led the Imperial Army, their Bedouin warriors and more than a thousand slave warriors entered the territory of the Kopuyali people,  A series of actions began.

    In addition, they used many means to make some people from small tribes who were vassal under the command of the Kopuyali people join the team.

    Therefore, in a very short period of time, Zhang Xiao and his team quickly expanded to more than 20,000 people.

    And, as they go deeper and deeper into the territory of the Kopuyali people, this number is still growing.  As they gradually approached the location of the Kopuyali tribe, the number finally stabilized at around 30,000 people.

    Driven by profit, these people who joined in would rush in and plunder like hungry wolves every time after the Imperial Army destroyed a certain tribe.

    They inflict the suffering they have suffered on others and gain a sense of satisfaction from others.

    These are what Zhang Xiao hopes to see.

    It is precisely because of this that these talents have no way out and can only follow Zhang Xiao and the Imperial Army into darkness.

    The people in this group come from many tribes, and they all have the same experiences. Even when their own tribe was in trouble, their companions robbed them.

    Because of this, there are many contradictions within this group, and it is impossible to be monolithic.

    Because of this reason, Zhang Xiao is not worried at all that they will become a rope and pose any threat to him.

    As long as this contradiction exists, they can only rely on themselves to follow themselves, and they will not be able to achieve the day they leave.

    Therefore, the fate of these people has been determined.

    They are the best cannon fodder.

    "General, ahead is the tribal settlement of the Kopuyali people. I heard that the Kopuyali people also have a medium-sized city, and all the tribal populations are scattered around it.",At that time, Zhang Xiao's adjutant was reporting to him.

    The team was advancing rapidly, and their gains in the territory of the Kopuyali people were considerable.

    Basically, half of the wealth stolen by the looters became the wealth of the Imperial Army.

    After all, this is the rule here in Cuman. Half of the things must be handed over to entities like the Imperial Army.

    And those slave soldiers who were brought back by Zhang Xiao in the early stage also made a lot of money.

    Therefore, the faces of the people rushing in the team were full of joy.

    "Oh, the Kopuyali people also have a city? This is completely unexpected. How did they create it in such a desert area."

    After hearing what the adjutant said, Zhang Xiao showed a surprised look.

    "It seems to be a small city, made entirely of clay and sand. It is completely different from the solid city we have in mind. It can even be said to be very crude. But in an environment like Cuman  In the middle, it¡¯s pretty good.¡±

    The adjutant told Zhang Xiao bit by bit the information he had gathered.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
