Answer:

A. To unify all together

Explanation:

Miantonomo was a chief of the Narragansett people in New England and lead the Narragansett tribe in the conflict between the Pequot tribe and the colonists that happened in 1636 and 1638.

Miantonomo should have asked his audience to unify all together in retaliation against the colonists because he believed that together they can defeat the colonist otherwise no Narragansets will be left. In his speech as well Miantonomo tried to unify all Indians by saying that they have to be together like English otherwise they all shall be gone shortly.

Hence, the correct answer is "A. To unify all together".
