The Parthian Plain is located in the northeast of the Armandche Plain and is also where the royal court of the Odin Empire is located.

In the eyes of countless Odin people, apart from the Arctic Icefield where the gods are said to live, the Parthian Plain can be regarded as the most sacred land in the entire north.

because,

Many, many years ago, the ruler of the Parthian tribe announced the establishment of the Odin Empire on this plain!

In the thousands of years that followed, although the Parthian tribe had long since become the dust of history, perhaps it was to commemorate the powerful tribe that established the first nomadic empire on the continent.

This vast plain located in the core of Odin's empire is still named after the Parthian tribe.

Taking control of the Parthian Plain has become the common goal of countless nomadic tribe rulers.

Following repeated killings and battles, countless tribes became the masters of this land. They were successfully crowned Lord Odin and became the co-lord of many northern nomadic tribes.

And today's O'Sullivan tribe is also one of them.

In order to stabilize his domestic rule and resolve the increasingly tense food problem, the current Odin monarch Alio O'Sullivan launched the largest war in recent decades against his neighbor the Norman Empire.

The two armies advanced hand in hand, and for a time the nobles of the Norman Empire even felt the most severe threat in history.

However……

Although they were unstoppable in the early stages of the war, winning successive victories and even occupying the entire northern part of the Norman Empire,... the Odin people made an extremely fatal mistake!

They extended their tentacles to the seemingly weak eastern territories of the Norman Empire!

The soldiers of the Idar Principality used their own strength to let the Odin people recognize the face of their dear father, and also exposed the conspiracy between the Odin Empire and the Church of Light to the eyes of all the Idar people.

Therefore, while the Principality of Idar was able to develop peacefully after the war, the Odin Empire in the north was not peaceful.

Alio O'Sullivan is indeed one of the few wise monarchs in the history of the Odin Empire.

Although he is very young, he is very capable of balancing the relationships between the major tribes in the Odin Empire and launching wars at the most appropriate time.

But the problem is...

He met the variable Bruno.

When the high priest died in battle, the imperial marshal fell on the battlefield, Odin's army lost all morale, and Idar's army became fierce, peace talks were undoubtedly the best option before Alio O'Sullivan.

However, the signing of the "Valens Peace Treaty" meant that Alio O'Sullivan was retreating, and it also meant that he would have to face challenges from various domestic forces.

Odin people only look at the results, not the process.

Even though the battle plan drawn up by Alio O'Sullivan is comparable to that of any famous Odin general, and Alio O'Sullivan's decision was the most appropriate approach at the time, but... this still cannot conceal the fact that the Odin Empire is in the hands of the Idar people.

The fact of defeat.

The Odin Empire was able to defeat the regular army of the Norman Empire, but it was defeated in the hands of a border noble. This can be regarded as a great shame and humiliation in the eyes of any tribal chief.

so,

For Odin Lord Alio O'Sullivan, the days after the armistice were not easy.

Many tribes in the Odin Empire did not receive the land originally promised to them, and the Odin Cavalry, which was directly affiliated with the O'Sullivan tribe, suffered heavy casualties in the war with the Idar people.

The temporary weakness of the O'Sullivan tribe made many tribal chiefs dare to join forces and ask for the spoils they deserve from O'Sullivan.

What's more, there are far more headaches for Alio O'Sullivan.

"What on earth did those damn Idar people do in the eastern highlands?"

Looking at the map hanging on the side of the big tent, O'Sullivan felt a little pain in his head.

In these days, as the Idar people's development of the eastern highlands gradually got on track, the construction of Hobbs Port was also in full swing, and news about the Idar people was constantly being submitted to Alio Osha.

In front of Levin.

only……

All this good news for the Idar people has become a sharp sword piercing O'Sullivan's heart.

The reason why Alio O'Sullivan transferred the mineral mining rights on the eastern plateau of the Odin Empire to the Principality of Idar is because the eastern plateau is a barren land known to everyone in the Odin Empire.

In the hundreds of years since the founding of the Odin Empire, no one has successfully mined any mineral deposits in the eastern highlands.

But,

Even though he was thousands of miles away, Alio O'Sullivan was stunned just by relying on the words in the letter.

The Idar people seem to have already anticipated the distribution of minerals in the eastern highlands. Everywhere they go, there will be a mineral buried deep underground exposed to everyone's eyes.

Such exploration efficiency has caused widespread shock throughout the Odin Empire.

You know, in the eyes of most Odin people, the Odin Empire has always been a country with poor mineral resources, and many iron tools need to be obtained by smuggling in the Norman Empire.

Now, mineral resources have finally been discovered in the Odin Empire, but...these precious minerals were given to the Idar people in vain by Alio O'Sullivan, the monarch of Odin, with a peace treaty.

in hands.

All of a sudden, the tribes of the Odin Empire exploded!

How to say?

In addition to the small tribes living in the eastern highlands who were very happy, the large tribes in the Odin Empire were all putting pressure on the young Odin military leader, asking him to take back the mining of minerals in the eastern highlands.

right.

In fact, it stands to reason that the nomadic tribes in the eastern highlands are the owners of these mineral deposits.

However, the leaders of these tribes are not fools.

They clearly know that with the power they possess, they simply cannot defend the minerals located on their territory.

Once the ownership rights of these minerals fall on one's own tribe, then one's own tribe will not be able to see the sun the next day at all!

Because...those large tribes that have been snooping on precious mineral resources for a long time may join forces to annihilate them overnight.

But if the Idar people are allowed to mine it, even if the tribes in the country are dissatisfied, they will have nothing to do.

So,

As minerals in the eastern highlands continue to be excavated, these tribes who are involved are happy to see the Idar people transport pieces of iron ore to the concession in Hobbs Port.

Moreover, as time went by, the massacre of the Pachinia tribe by the Idars was gradually forgotten by the Odins.

Because since the Idar people established a firm foothold in the eastern highlands, they have never had any enemies with any tribe.

Idar soldiers are always stationed in the Idar Concession in Hobbs Harbor. As long as they do not deliberately obstruct the Idar people's implementation of the "Valens Peace Treaty", then the Idar people will not make the slightest move.

What's more, the Idar people's behavior of purchasing a large number of cattle and sheep in the eastern highlands has given those tribes living in the eastern highlands a taste of the sweetness of cooperating with the Idar Principality to make profits, and naturally they are not willing to go back to eating chaff as before.

Yan Cai, when he was oppressed by powerful tribes.

"His Majesty……"

While Alio O'Sullivan was looking at the map of Odin's empire in a daze, an old slave walked in cautiously.

"Lord Soma of the Namigala tribe has arrived..."

Hearing this, the young Lord Odin couldn't help but frown slightly.

As the current chief of the Namigara tribe, Alio O'Sullivan could guess the purpose of Soma Namigara coming here even with his own toes.

It was nothing more than talking about the minerals in the eastern highlands, and asking for the spoils of war that had been promised to him before the war began.

In fact, if this war is won, then there is nothing wrong with claiming spoils based on the amount of contribution.

But the problem is... Strictly speaking, the Odin Empire did not win this war, and Alio O'Sullivan has also given a large part of the spoils plundered in the early stages of the war to the empire.

various tribes within it.

"Let him come in..."

Alio O'Sullivan still said in a deep voice.

"yes."

When the old slave slowly retreated, Soma Namigara, who was tall and tall, opened the curtain of the big tent by himself, and walked towards Alio O'Sullivan with steps that he did not recognize.

"The noble Lord Odin, the King of Kings, His Majesty Alio O'Sullivan of the O'Sullivan tribe..."

He bowed slightly and paid respect to the young monarch, but there was a hint of unruliness in his words.

If it had been before the war started, Soma would never have dared to be so presumptuous.

Because the Imperial Marshal Portia was still alive at that time, the Odin cavalry of the O'Sullivan tribe were also very strong and ready to fight.

But now he

Not only does the Namigara tribe stand behind it, but there is even support from several other powerful nomadic tribes!

He had only one purpose in coming here this time, and that was to persuade the young monarch in front of him to ask the Idar people for the mining rights to the mineral deposits in the eastern highlands.

It would be good to have it back, so all the major tribes can get a share of the pie.

But if they don't come, it will undoubtedly cause the current Odin royal family to be at odds with the Idar Principality, without any loss to the Namigara tribe.

after all……

The Namigara tribe, which occupies the southeastern pastures of Odin's empire and whose land is adjacent to the ocean and the Forest of Warcraft, has always been a strong contender for Odin's throne!

The Namigara tribe not only owns the largest number of fishing boats and Odin boats in the entire Odin Empire, but also has a large number of serfs captured from the Norman Empire for farming. It is one of the most powerful tribes in the Odin Empire.
