Chapter 15: The Partition of the North
Four hundred and sixty to four hundred and thirty years ago, the apostles of St. Ossidine, at the north and south ends of the continent, established two huge empires, except for some marginal areas, these two countries almost covered the continent of Rukai, in the past thirty years, the apostles pushed the faith to all mankind, including some other races, more and more fanatics, only one step away, can meet the requirements of St. Ossidine, completely absorb the energy of this plane.

If that's the case, Brian's ancestors, as well as the ancestors of all humans, have now become all kinds of undead, and the Lukai continent has also become a corner of the underworld. Unfortunately, everything did not develop safely according to the will of the supreme divine Osidine, and the nine kings of the underworld were too powerful, threatening the spatial barrier he had established at all times, so he had to spare enough time and energy to deal with this matter.
So the Tula plane was temporarily abandoned, if St. Osidin knew that this plane was once the test base of the Ronin race, and an eighth generation of human beings would be born in the future, and it would be completely wiped out no matter what, but unfortunately, the Supreme God could not predict the future, he could only choose to solve the most important difficulties in front of him first.
At that time, the Church of the Stars lost the support of God, and the Fergus and Rodney families in the south rose up bravely, organized the people, conquered the city, and established today's Yamelo Empire. And in the north, the Hill family, who have always believed in the god of the sun, wrote the same epic of rebellion, they started from scratch, created something from scratch, repeatedly created miracles, and finally crushed the Chenxing Church into powder and became the founder of the Sunward Empire.
Unlike the Yamelo Empire, the Xiangri Empire ********, the capable Hill family, attaches great importance to the cultivation of children and grandchildren, and its status for more than four hundred years has not been shaken at all. Since there was no serious internal struggle, and the governance was passable, the strength of the Xiangri Empire was obviously stronger than that of the south, and the only thing that bothered them was the Nevin Fortress. To unify the entire continent, it is necessary to pass through the Nevin Fortress.
In the history of the Xiangri Empire, there have been many domineering popes, and they don't believe that they can't open up another way, bypassing and attacking Yamelo. They tried to cross Mount Tonna, but the soldiers were frozen on the top of the mountain, they tried to force their way across the swamp, and the soldiers became food for the marsh creatures, they tried to cross the Kinkeburn Desert, and the whole two legions were never heard from again, and they wanted to cross the sea, and the poor boat was broken into pieces by the wind and waves.
Later, the Xiangri Empire firmly believed that only the fortress of Nevin was the only way to enter the south, and the civil strife in Yamelo finally gave them a chance, and the Duchy of Godobtan, as a traitor to the Southern Empire, suddenly attacked the base camp of the Neven defenders, and opened the gate that had been blocked all year round to welcome their "ally" Xiangri Empire, dreaming of carving up the whole of Yamelo. The army of the Xiangri Empire finally galloped on the southern land four hundred years later, and the ancestors' long-cherished wish to unify the continent may be about to come true.
Unfortunately, the goddess of wisdom descended, and this goddess ruthlessly destroyed the dream of the Xiangri Empire, destroying their army with a wave of his hand, and their strong man, before the gods, could only bow their heads.
The Yamelo Empire can be described as devastated, but the arrival of God has given the country unprecedented cohesion, and no one can shake the dominance of the Church.
It's a pity that the Sun Empire, which is about to collapse, is in a different state, because the sun god has not had a miracle for hundreds of years, and people begin to doubt his existence, once the mind is shaken, the unbreakable position of the Hill family also shakes. Fifteen legions, the power of the whole country, were gone.
As soon as the old Pope Matthew Hill died, the Pope's sons fought for the succession, and the brothers fought against each other, regardless of their father's bones. The Xiangri Empire fell into serious civil strife, and perhaps no one thought that Yamelo, who sent troops to invade the civil strife, would end up with the same fate.
Maybe the brothers are all close in strength, or maybe they all have different ideas, and no one can convince anyone, and no one can deter anyone. This is a very bad situation, and it brings endless consumption, consumption of lives, consumption of goods, consumption of wealth, and finally the northern kingdom is a whole country, divided into dozens of small city-states. The nobles all had a city to rely on, and they all became kings, established states, and the territory of the Xiangri Empire became sparse.
Many southerners, began to pass through the fortress of Newen, to the countries of the north, they love troubled times, they like the scene of separation, they were useless, and now they feel that their glorious time has come, to show their talents and strategies, for a certain monarch to plan a hegemonic career.
Matthew's five sons now regret it, if they had been more united, humble, and elected one to be the pope and emperor, the Xiangri Empire would not have been so chaotic, but it is a pity that they have been fighting endlessly, and the soldiers have not stopped, giving the local nobles a chance, they have been dissatisfied with the long-term rule of the Hill family, and now they have pulled out their own banners and become kings independently, and many people do not even believe in the god of the sun.
Matthew's eldest son thought that the nobles who did not take the god of the sun in their eyes were simply heinous, and if they did not have the help of the gods, they would not be where they are today, and he contacted several younger brothers in the hope of regrouping and crusading against those who rebelled.
It's a pity that when it comes to specific matters, the five brothers quarreled again, who would be the commander of the coalition forces, who would be responsible for the food supply, and who would be the vanguard to take the lead, these questions made them quarrel, and the ancestral industry was finally abandoned in the dispute, and the relationship was completely broken because of this, and in just three or four months, the Xiangri Empire was divided into forty-two small countries, and there was no hope of reversing this situation.
Pope Haino is happy to see such a situation, he hopes that the north can always maintain strife and maintain a scattered situation, so that the Amellot Empire only needs two years and a little breath to wipe out the northern countries, and establish the influence of the Church of the Star on the entire continent, he will be the hero of St. Ossidine, believing that God will definitely take him to the heavenly realm and give him true eternal life.
As for the Misty Kingdom, it was the last thing Haino put on his mind, the southernmost deserted place, as long as there was no threat to the church, let them fend for themselves, solve the heresy in the country, and then put down Alik's betrayal, he would immediately turn north and achieve the unification of the continent. So Cumberland's proposal to establish diplomatic relations with the Misty Kingdom is also a strategy he is considering, stabilize this small country and don't make trouble behind his back, it's okay, it doesn't matter if they believe in St. Ossidine now or not.
What Haino didn't expect was that two years later, after the Yamelo Empire became strong again, the biggest headache for him was the Misty Kingdom, a decisive battle that had to be opened early. (To be continued.) )
