Chapter 329: Sycamore Storm (I)
>,!
Wutong Town, a small town located in the southwest of the mainland, became popular almost overnight, and its name was suddenly widely mentioned, and its fame was even greater than that of Gregor and Stormwind City.
For no other reason, it is about to become a place of alliance between the Tully and the Holy See.
The alliance between the Holy See and the Skinners is unprecedented, and in fact it is far more than just the Holy See and Tully who are involved in the alliance.
The sixteen heads of the Tully family will all be present on the day of the alliance.
The Holy See and the Sacred Flame Dragoons will also arrive in the town on time before forming an alliance.
As for why they chose this town for the alliance, it is a matter of opinion.
"Hey, this move is really big, the alliance between seventeen large and small families and the Holy See",
"Alas, since the appearance of the puppeteer, the Holy See has been in a bad year, the Funeral Sect, Shane, Groot, there are enemies everywhere, in addition to these powerful enemies, there are also the Black Flag Army that suddenly appeared, the Red Rock Island, which is ready to move, and the island of Cologa with the backing of the Irish Navy",
"Coloka Island, it's the hometown of the puppeteer, the puppeteer and the Holy See have formed such a big bond, they will definitely not give up",
"But the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, it is not so easy to bring down the Holy See, and the Holy See has made a rare compromise, if it was placed in the past, how could the Tuli family be qualified to form an alliance with the Holy See?",
There is a lot of gossip in the taverns of Sycamore Town, which is already a scene that can be seen everywhere in the town.
While they were talking, no one noticed, and an old man hunched over his waist walked silently out of the tavern.
A slender and frail young man followed.
From time to time, you can see patrolling congregants in the streets, all of whom have been carefully selected by the Holy See, who are both loyal and brave.
As early as a month ago, the Holy See had already begun to prepare for this alliance. In order to ensure that the alliance was foolproof, the Holy See did not hesitate to use nearly half of the Shadow Guard Brigade. Now the town is an iron bucket. No bad guy can make waves here.
"Raphael, why did you choose this town for the alliance?" asked Fergus.
If Roger had been here, he would have recognized the man who was following the old skinner as his "old friend",
Raphael, who once "went on an embassy" with Dorog to Slok.
Raphael said respectfully: "Because this place is adjacent to the Yangtze River, and the mountains on both sides are close to it, which is convenient for fortification".
"What else?",
And Raphael thought for a moment and said, "Because of."
He really couldn't think of any other reason, he had always regarded himself as a literati, and it was okay for him to write and write, and it would be very difficult for him to think about these political issues.
But when facing Fogg, he was under a lot of pressure, and he stuttered for a moment.
Fogg said: "Are the people here rich?",
Raphael shook his head and said, "It seems to be poor",
"Are they strong in their faith in the Holy See?" asked Fergus
"not firm",
Fogg asked, "Why are they not strong in their faith?",
Raphael snorted. He didn't know how to answer.
"Because the Holy See has not paid attention to them, there is no church here. The congregation is scarce, with an average of only once every three months, so they are not firm in their faith in the Holy See",
Raphael and Fogg arrived at the same time, and he didn't know much about the town, but Fogg had studied all the customs and customs.
Raphael secretly admired him, maybe people in high positions always have some special skills.
"The Holy See has always favored the rich, the nobles, these people will not have a firm faith, but those people can make the Holy See rich, but unfortunately when the war comes, they will not be able to go to the battlefield, and the Holy See is only now realizing this drawback",
"This is the same as all the places that have been neglected by the Holy See, if not worse, and the Holy See wants to take this opportunity to let thousands of ordinary people on the mainland know that the Holy See has not abandoned them and that the Holy Light is still shining," said Fergus.
With a sharp insight, Raphael said: "The subordinates have been taught",
With his hands behind his back, the distant sunset stained the earth red, like the color of twilight.
The three families of Tully, Groot, and Meyer were all self-made, and the Tully family had the worst reputation, and Fogg knew this, but few people paid attention to the fact that the soldiers of the Tully family were no less loyal than the battle maniac Groot.
The name of the skinner, the method of treating the prisoners, these notorieties have little impact on the Tully family, the old skinner's life is magnificent, he single-handedly supported the Tully family from the halfway up the mountain to the top of the mountain, and knows how to fight the world and how to rule the world.
His reputation was so great that others ignored his treatment of his own people, and his careful cultivation of Garcia, his compassion for his subordinates, and the continuous improvement of the military merit system made the Tully family stand on the mainland for decades, make the soldiers loyal, and make the invincible bloody Garcia desperately revenge
But now that Fogg is watching the sunset, he no longer believes in his own strength as before, many things in this world cannot be decided by man, even if he is as powerful as the Tuli family, he may not be able to reverse his fate.
"Raphael, strive, the Tully family needs fresh blood", Fogg said.
Raphael was stunned for a moment, then his brow was overjoyed, God knows how much he contained in this sentence
The alliance of Sycamore Town was in full swing, and three days later, three horses arrived at the foot of the mountain east of Indus.
They avoided the family members who kept entering Wutong Town, and stopped at the foot of a remote mountain.
These three people are Roger, Oga and Angel, who have been fighting with the Tully rangers for hundreds of miles along the way, Roger and Oga are fine, but Angel looks a little tired.
Roger tied her horse to a tree and said, "Stay here",
Oga who had just taken out the Thousand Thorns said, "Boy, I'll stay here too?",
Roger nodded: "You stay to protect Angel",
"Boy, it's not impossible for me to stay and protect him, but are you sure you can succeed alone?",
They are not only here this time to destroy the alliance between the Tully family and the Holy See, but there will be many actions in the future.
Roger tightened the strap on the container and smiled to himself: "Of course you can",
"Well, boy, be careful yourself",
Oga said no more, and the strength and wisdom that Roger had shown along the way were enough to convince him.
Roger turned his head and glanced at Angel striding towards Wutong Town, without instructions, without warnings, everything was silent.
He walked without hesitation, and when he turned around, he was decisive.
This time he will be here to fight the most powerful enemy, the prophet Fatima, the old skinner, the pope, all the hatred, all the hatred will be ended here. (To be continued......)
