Chapter 753 The Basics of Ruling

Of course, Chen Xie would not kill these people who support him the most. This was not an era of rule.↖, the privileged class will exist at any time, but the degree is different. These are people who grew up in the Ming Dynasty, and they have no idea of ​​the rule of law in their hearts. After all, they have hurt Chen Xie and the collective interests and enriched themselves. If it weren’t for Chen Xie, others would not be able to do anything to them. If these people cannot be given a reason to tell the past, how can others be relieved? This is a military interest group with Chen Xie as the core. The so-called privileged class refers to such a group of people.

But these people did too much and could not help but express it. It was also the charge of "exile". Exile itself was a very serious verdict in this era. At least the public perception is like this. Exile for three thousand miles is a great thing. If it is exiled to India, it will be more than ten thousand miles.

There are people present who are counting on each other. Not only does they have no resentment, but only gratitude. The problem in Liaodong is actually very serious. After an interest group with the army as the core has occupied all kinds of problems. This is still early to discover, otherwise, like the Huai Army in history, the entire army that dares to fight was destroyed in just twenty years.

Life is too comfortable, what should I do? Get rid of a group of people, maintain the enterprising spirit of this group, and reform the Liaodong military management model. Leave the decision-making power of government affairs to civil servants, implement a system of separation of military and government, constantly replenish fresh blood, form a competition mechanism, etc. If there are too many of these things, it is not something that can be accomplished day and night. It will take several years to basically take shape.

Chen Xie knew very well that what he could change had almost reached its extreme. In this era of illiteracy, it was impossible to implement any democratic system. Centralization during this period was necessary, and the group was used to promote compulsory education and wait for the next generation to grow up. Emerging capitalism became a big climate, and there was no need to promote it at that time, and the next generation had to make their own voices. In order to put it bluntly, institutional reform had to accumulate strength. Taking modern times as an example, from the beginning of the Opium War, the Qing government completely disappointed the elite class of the entire country. After experiencing half a century of turmoil, it was only after half a century that the political unification was completed. For such a long time, it was a very easy thing to express it in words. It was really easy to see this history when you really approach history, it was all the blood of your own people!

Chen Xie didn't plan to let his people bleed, so let the foreigners bleed. Let these guys go to India and lead a bunch of Japanese tyrants to India to cause Shunchang's demise. Chen Xie may not be relieved in other countries, but in India, don't worry. This country is too special. If you basically deal with the local kings and nobles, the rule of this country can last for a long time. How to deal with it? Of course, you can't learn from the British. The British Empire's set lost India in the end. Of course, this is also related to the loss of Britain's own national strength. This is what the small country is like, and it will affect the whole body, and the small country's own immunity is too poor. After the two world wars, the glory of the British Empire was completely over.

India is a country that is so strange. In history, the Mumbai famine was starved to death. So many people were starved to death, but they did not see a large-scale uprising. It is really unimaginable. The cause of the Indian uprising was not starving to death, but the grease on the bullets, which was religion. Given the living examples of history, Chen Xie's plan was to cultivate a group of new ruling powers in India. Just kill the old group of people. As for the Indian people who are willing to continue the caste system, then continue.

Of course, there will be no country in India in the future, only a certain province. Chen Xie thinks that half of this plan can be completed in his lifetime. The massacre of 70% of the Indian nobles is probably almost done. Anyway, even if the lowest-level people starve to death, they will not think of rebelling.

Another problem is that the Liaodong resources that were not thought about solving before. These resources were nominally Chen Xie. Although part of the taxes in Liaodong were transferred to the Ming Dynasty’s Ministry of Revenue, it was for the sake of Zhu Youjian. The entire Liaodong was defeated by Chen Xie. When Zhu Youjian was there, the officials sent by the Ministry of Personnel were empty-handed. The part that could reflect political achievements was taxation. There were more taxes for cooperative officials, while there were fewer taxes for non-cooperation officials.

In terms of face, Liaodong was the land recovered by the Ming Dynasty, while the inner world was Chen Xie's private territory. In the past, Liaodong was a bitter and cold place. If the emperor had not guarded the country's gates, this place would have been unpopular. Now Liaodong is Chen Xie's heavy industrial base, and its development in industry and commerce was second only to Jiangnan. In addition, the prosperity of trade with North Korea and Japan, the proportion of tax revenue was increasing day by day.

The Ming Dynasty had the idea of ​​taking back the rights of Liaodong, but it was not the strength. She could only watch Chen Xie runs into an iron-like territory, pretending to be deaf and dumb to continue to collect some taxes every year. It was these privileged classes of Chen Xie's group that determined the basis of Chen Xie's rule in Liaodong. Do you think Chen Xie can deal with these people to death?

Chen Xie looked around, looked at his subordinates who were kneeling on the ground and crying, and sighed heavily, "I don't blame you for some things, I blame you for not explaining it clearly before." After saying that, he also wiped the corners of his eyes in a fake manner, stepped forward to help a group of people up and waited.

Hearing everyone to sit back, Chen Xie said earnestly: "The army should not be engaged in business. This lesson is painful. After thinking about it, the military labor service company should be cancelled and changed to the military asset management office. It only has the management rights and no longer participates in business. Various resources under its name are rented out, rent collected every year, and given to a special team for investment. The profits obtained are used to resettle retired soldiers. Ensure that every soldier can get a considerable pension when leaving the army. The relevant systems will be introduced soon."

Speaking of this, Chen Xie paused and sighed heavily, "As for all the shares in the company, they will be cancelled in the future. The private interests obtained by colluding with merchants will be handed over to Zheng Hao. This is the interests of the entire army. If they have been embezzled, they will lose everyone. This is also the reason why I am angry. They were originally profitable to the entire army, but they have become private profits. Are you doing these things worthy of those comrades who died on the battlefield? Are they worthy of their families?"

Everyone was said to have lowered their heads and felt guilty! Originally, these things were all under Chen Xie's name. The prince cared about everyone's livelihoods in the future and got everyone's dry stocks. There were dividends every year. As a result, some people were not satisfied and wanted to make a fortune. Now Chen Xie took advantage of this opportunity to cancel the so-called dry stocks and reorganize the operation and management of these resources.

These people were the foundation of Chen Xie's rule. After he got rid of it, Chen Xie saw that everyone was regretful and changed the subject: "All of them were heroes who had been in the army for many years. They followed me to rob Jiannu, rob Tartars, rob thieves, and soldiers. How could they get into high-ranking officials? They lost their spirits from the past? Not to mention India, the entire Southeast Asia is full of gold. Siam, Mubang, and Annan. There are some gold and silver in these places, and there are guys in their hands, just go and grab them."

At this time, Chang Shiren stood up and said, "Master, don't say anything more, let's be ashamed to death." Everyone nodded wildly as if they were pecking at the rice, and they all spoke to Chang Shiren's point of view. Chen Xie glanced coldly, and the crowd was silent.

"Let me know, you will take one step first and make preparations after you arrive in India. In the next ten years, at least 500,000 Japanese warriors will be sent to you as subordinates. Your mission is to make full use of this power and establish a new ruling class in India. The top level is naturally you. The lower point is those Japanese warriors. The property and land they stolen will be distributed by you. I only need to collect taxes." Chen Xie drew a super big cake, and the eyes of these people stopped turning. There is such a thing? It was so surprising!

Chang Shiren was not very convinced, and hesitated for a moment and said, "This is not good, why did everyone share the huge India?" Everyone nodded again, and they couldn't believe it. Chen Xie said with anger, "Look at your prospects, India is so large and the arable land is no less than that of two Liaodongs, and the climate is suitable and the rich products are abundant. In the past, the nobles and the local kings ruled India. If you go, kill some of them and replace them. Those Japanese lackeys should not be hungry, otherwise who will be your life? You should share some of the stolen property and then divide them into land. I don't care about how to distribute it. I just need to have one requirement. In the future, the official language of India must be in Mandarin."

Chen Xie didn't say anything in his heart. In India, these people are the basis of Chen's rule. Because the situation is different, we cannot compare to other places. Chen Xie just asked these people to go to India to be the local emperors.

"Mr., I understand. Please don't worry, everyone knows what to do." Chang Shiren quickly expressed his opinion. In fact, what he was thinking about was another thing. After staying in Daming for a long time, the concept of grand unification was deeply rooted in the bones. How could it be possible to create separatist things? At least their generation did not have the courage.

Chen Xie could see their thoughts at a glance and interrupted him, "You don't understand, forget it, I'd better tell you more carefully. When you went to India, your identity was not an exiled officer, but a nobleman conferred by the President of the Overseas Alliance of the Ming Empire. In that place, you have a fiefdom. I will tell you where the fiefdom is, and then you will fight down and then seal it to the lower level. You need to recommend an Indian governor to manage the entire India and be directly responsible to me." (To be continued...)
