Chapter 804: The Holy Light Sect Comes to the Door (1)
At the beginning, the two Holy Sees would hold their breath and desperately build churches below, you build one, I build two, and they are still door-to-door robbing believers.
But a single holy war throughout the Southwest, or even a religious conflict in one or two kingdoms, was enough to destroy these beautiful churches into ruins.
Later, when it was not known which side occupied the other party's church first, but the flag was changed and used as its own church, the act of desperately building churches with each other disappeared, and they all became to snatch the only church in a region as a war achievement.
In fact, it is not surprising that the clergy will occupy other people's churches without psychological barriers, who let the supreme gods of both sides be the same, and even many rituals are exactly the same, the only difference is the religious name and flag and clothing. As long as you replace these different things in the other party's church with your own, even the people from the general court can't tell the difference. Especially after occupying the church, it will be repaired when the church is owned, so that the church naturally has the style of both sides, and it is even more difficult to tell whose church it is.
Because of this, almost all towns and towns in the entire southwest region have churches, but the flags above these churches will change from time to time. The common people don't pay attention to the flag above the church, anyway, they just go to the church when they pray.
Such casual behavior also confirmed that the local people did not care much about participating in the jihad, and it was impossible for them to kill their neighbors because they killed all the infidels.
Therefore, in the holy war in the southwest, many times the civilians watched from the sidelines, watching the respected bishops of the two Holy Sees, the local strong nobles, and their disciples and knights fighting each other, and then when the victor appeared, the civilians rushed to the church to pray and celebrate.
Because of this, in addition to recruiting die-hard fanatics, the two Holy Sees are coercing and seducing powerful figures in various parts of the southwest.
And these real power figures who have been swaying from side to side for I don't know how many years, it is natural that whoever gives more benefits will fight with whomever they want.
It can be said that except for a few kingdoms and principalities, these big bulls will not easily rebel, and the nobles below them will really rebel at any time. Because this has nothing to do with betraying the kingdom, even if the people of the same kingdom fight to death, the king has no right to blame and punish, so on the surface, the power of these kingdoms and principalities in the southwest region is fixed, but the noble territory below them changes from time to time.
The Holy See on both sides is extremely dissatisfied with this kind of thing, and they can't wait to pinch the forces under their own command into a firm mess, and not to rebel at will. However, due to various restrictions, this idea has never been implemented.
For others, they remain optimistic about such things that can be reversed at will. The reason why the top bosses of the rebels, those kings and princes, secretly support it, is that they don't want the reunification below, this is that they are in danger of being hollowed out, and secondly, they will be used to death by the Holy See, and then they will be the ones who are bleeding and unlucky.
Therefore, it is better to keep the top stable and the bottom chaotic, so that the Holy See still has to rely on itself, and its own kingdom can continue to be inherited. Also, the people below are bleeding a lot, and they can't challenge themselves, right? It's good for their own dominance.
For other forces outside, let alone the more chaotic the southwest region, the better, lest it be unified to unify the whole world!
Many world-class forces are very vigilant against these two religious forces, not to mention the means of agitating people's hearts, just by virtue of their location in the southwest, and they are two sworn enemies who are fighting all day long, and there are still a vote of people jumping back and forth to make trouble, in this case, other forces would have collapsed long ago, but the two major religious forces have actually been able to become a world-class force, which is not a strange thing for other world-class forces to be vigilant!
And now the Holy Light Sect and the Illuminati Sect have entered a holy war that will spread throughout the entire southwest region, and the two religions and the aristocratic forces below them have also begun to prepare for war. That's why the Holy Light Sect is slow to respond to the events of this Guardian Island.
However, Zhang Zhongjun is also strange, aren't you meowing in preparation for a war? Why do you suddenly have the leisure to come to yourself? According to the information I got before, every time the holy war starts, ninety percent of the bishops and knights on the Holy Light Sect on Jiade Island will be transferred back to the Holy Grace Continent to participate in the war.
Although Zhang Zhongjun thought a lot in his head, he was just stunned in the eyes of outsiders, and then asked his subordinates to invite people in.
When a Holy Light Sect bishop wearing a white robe embroidered with red trim walked in, Zhang Zhongjun just stood up and covered his chest and saluted, and the surrounding guards didn't move a moment.
The reason why everyone is so casual is very simple, the status of the Holy Light Sect on Jiade Island is not very good, and the people in the north of this island are all overflowing believers, even if they believe in any religion, they will never become brainless fanatics. Therefore, it is obviously impossible for everyone to show their heartfelt awe for this Bishop of the Holy Light Sect, who is a weak force on Guardian Island.
On the contrary, most of the people on the south side of the island are devout believers, and there are many fanatical believers, but unfortunately, the south side does not believe in the Holy Light Cult. People believe in the native Poseidon Sect on the island, this sect is very powerful, and even in the north, as well as in the coastal areas of the Holy Grace Continent, there are many people who believe in it. It can even be said that wherever you are near the sea, you can find the followers of the Poseidon Sect.
The old man, who looked very kind, did not care at all about the contemptuous looks of everyone present, not only him, but also the two papal knights who followed him, who also looked unconcerned, with the same gentle smile on his face as the bishop.
In fact, when the diplomatic moments of various forces are trying to find an excuse to go to war, they will never be angry because the other side is contemptuous or impolite. Just kidding, when you are external, you represent the entire organization, and the organization does not express its position, is it possible that you will mess around?
Even if it is the crown prince, the second generation of officials, etc., he will not immediately blow up the stab in a diplomatic occasion because the other party does not give face, otherwise the education of these second generations will be too failed.
The kind of person who gets angry as soon as he is unhappy, one is that people are the biggest heads, why don't you discuss with your subordinates if you want to do it, do whatever you want. The second is that they have been waiting for an excuse to go to war for a long time, otherwise how could such an idiot appear in a diplomatic situation?
The red-edged and white-robed bishop also made a religious salute and said very gently: "When we first met, I am Lewinster of the Holy Light Sect in the Guardian Island. ”
