Chapter 68: Thoughts

A change in matter is bound to cause fluctuations in thought. Wayne's military reform was swift and brutal, and it was different from the old army.

In the old days, the treatment of military officers and soldiers was completely different, and officers were like old men in the army, and they could call soldiers at will. Their own armies require officers to live and eat with their soldiers, even more so than their soldiers.

Officers are not allowed to put on a show outside of training, and they even have to shout at the soldiers.

Of course, there is still a difference between officers and ordinary soldiers, not to mention that officers' salaries are higher than those of ordinary soldiers.

However, this is not enough to offset the impact of the decline in the status of officers brought about by the military system, in fact, the status of officers has not declined, but there is a lot less "convenience" in private life.

This makes many newly promoted officers not know what the meaning of being an officer is, and their thinking is still stuck in the idea that being an officer is to eat and drink spicy food.

And, of course, there were night classes, and without the oppression of the elves, these newly recruited soldiers scoffed at it. I don't know what to do with this, I fight on my own, and I'm not literate.

In some churches, when believers take artillery theory classes, they even go up to scold the instructors as the embodiment of the devil. Wait a minute...

These are all things that Beson told him, Bald's side is fine, the white regiment is still the old military system, and the ideology is still the traditional idea of loyalty.

This also sounded the alarm bell for Wayne, who was changing the material basis and did not pay attention to the ideological level. Or that I didn't notice that the change in people's thinking could come so quickly, and I started the industrial revolution.

During the Renaissance, there was not much material change in the material aspects of the people. And Nolan and Italy have a common feature that they are prosperous in business and open-minded. It may be that some kind of change will cause a wave of ideas.

And Nolan has no ideological craze now, or there are too few scholars, and he doesn't even want a bachelor's degree.

But Wayne will vigorously build the school in the future, and if it is not, some scholars will come over and give birth to a group of philosophical masters.

It doesn't matter, it would be fun to make something like anarchism.

He had to control the direction of this wave of ideas as early as possible and not let it drift too much.

As for how to control it - movable type printing!

Before the Internet age, what was the fastest way to disseminate information, traditional paper media. It can be said that whoever controls the printing industry has the possibility of propagating his ideas to the masses.

And movable type printing is not difficult, now that Rune already has engraving printing, he can improve it himself a little. Reynolds cooperated with Bešić in Vaser to make ceramics, and he couldn't come back for the time being, and he had to do it himself.

In the next few days, Wayne ran all the way forward with the craftsmen of the traditional printing industry, and even switched directly to copper movable type. Directly skipped the wooden type, pottery type.

Wayne would have better just get on the waterwheel and replace the manual printing. These craftsmen, who have been working for decades, feel like they are dreaming for the past few days, when they finally see the machine carrying a wooden board inlaid with movable type to print words on paper. It's the feeling of being real and illusory.

On the one hand, I participated in the whole production process and understood the principle, but this is a strange thing.

In short, it took Wayne a few days to figure out movable type printing, which is still hydraulical, and it is several times more efficient than people.

As for what to print? Print the text for the army first, after all, the army is now the most literate among all the people in Nolan, and his original intention is to guide the army's thinking.

But it's easy to be saturated, after all, there are only more than 10,000 people in the army, but it doesn't matter, sell it, your own books are cheap, and in this era of high book costs, someone will definitely buy them. Then I saw my own novel thoughts, and the result was definitely more good and less good for me.

What follows is Wayne's painful time of writing books, you must know that Wayne's 800 line in the college entrance examination in his last life was squeezed out by himself, and now it is painful to have 20,000 or 30,000 words at every turn.

Fortunately, there is a memory palace, and I copy it selectively, otherwise Wayne really doesn't know if he can stick to it.

Title: "Soldiers of the New Era"

Chapter 1: The Mission of the Soldier

To understand the mission of the military, we must first understand why the military is needed. For the time being, the army is defending against aggression,

What to resist aggression. Because as soon as it is occupied by the enemy, the people (all the people in the territory) are subjected to the ravages of the enemy.

The army is formed by the people, the soldiers are raised by the taxes paid by the people, and the equipment (artillery, swords, guns, armor, etc.) is also bought by the taxes paid by the people...

Chapter 2: Why be loyal to your lord

....

Wayne's days of hard work are also the days when Nolan conducts a large-scale search for spies.

Ever since there was a reward for catching a spy, and someone around me received a reward. There were a lot of people in the workshop all day. Idle youth, children driven by parents.

There was a crowd of people around the workshop, all of whom craned their necks to look at the workshop.

For fear that someone stepped into the cordon and didn't see it.

Every time a person came out of the workshop, there were children, and the young people followed. I wondered if I could make a fortune. This group of workers engaged in three o'clock every day, home, vegetable market, workshop. I didn't dare to go to a strange place at all, for fear that I would be taken away in the next second.

A few days before the news was released, there was a lot of harvest. The whole guard team was very busy, and even four or five people were interrogated in groups. In the end, it was Evans who mobilized the manpower to alleviate the situation.

Almost most of them were caught by mistake.

It also seriously affected Nolan's daily life order.

But Evans and Wayne show no signs of stopping, because every new policy comes with a period of adaptation. It will be back to normal later.

For example, Nolan is not as noisy now.

Now those spy organizations have temporarily stopped carrying out their missions.

Especially the spy organization of the fourth prince Gallo, when Wayne had an impact on the political situation, the four princes sent people to Nolan. In particular, artillery, armor, is even more important.

As a rival to the throne of the Grand Prince, he needed artillery skills even more. Quite a few nobles have been shaken in their confidence.

So his spy organization is also the largest and insane of all spy organizations. Once Nolan's counter-espionage campaign began, the losses were the most serious.

Hundreds of people are now left with an old janitor, and even the old man has left in the end, after all, there is no salary.

The whole army was wiped out, and there was no way not only to keep an eye on the raw materials in the workshop, but also to have a good relationship with many craftsmen. Hiss had a lot of information about their members at that time, and he wanted to catch them all, but he endured it in order to catch a big fish.

When Quan Nolan began to catch spies, the leader of this organization panicked, and he endured many days of killing Hiss with one blow, and scored all of them.
