With the launch of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's streamlined but great founding ceremony, the scribes and other civilian personnel of the Taiping Army began to register and summarize a large number of households.

The propaganda of the pound of black bread of the white traitors who surrendered to the United States before was not that Hong Tiancheng suddenly gave free benefits to the citizens of Kyiv, but a hidden test of the people's will in Kyiv, the political core city of the Taiping Army in the short term.

All Kyiv citizens who went to the central square of the church to attend the enthronement ceremony of Hong Tiancheng would have their families and personal information recorded in detail by the scribes and other civilian personnel of the Taiping Army who were in charge of registration when they received a pound of black bread.

Subsequently, the information that was registered and summarized will be matched and compared with the original captured household registers of the city of Kiev, which are of little value in this era, when the Cossack rebels were routed out of the city of Kiev, they completely destroyed the artillery and other military weapons at the head of the city, but did not do anything about this militarily useless copywriting.

Because even if this kind of copywriting of citizen household information is destroyed, the rulers who occupied the city of Kyiv can go door to door again, but it will only consume some more time and manpower and financial resources, which is not a valuable thing at all for the rebels who first aim to gain power.

Therefore, the Taiping army saved a lot of trouble when counting the households in Kiev.

The Taiping Army did this for one thing, to find out the people in Kiev who were dissatisfied with the Taiping Army, or who did not trust the people.

A pound of black bread is really not much, not even enough to feed a diligent and thrifty family of three for a day, and the black bread of this era is not the whole wheat black leba of the 21st century, but the food made by the black food processors of the 21st century.

In the 21st century, black bread in this era is not even eaten by animals......

Wood chips, sand grains, grass leaves, etc., which cannot be scientifically digested by the human stomach, occupy eighty percent of the bottom black bread in this era!

Only the remaining two percent are the ingredients that can be digested by the human body in the scientific theory of the 21st century, according to the basic food common sense of the 21st century, this kind of black bread will kill people if eaten, however, the human body's digestive ability always likes to create myths......

Of course, this is one of the reasons why the average life expectancy of humans in ancient Europe was less than 30 years.

Therefore, the cost of black bread paid by the Taiping army is extremely low, basically all of it is captured booty, Hong Tiancheng is cruel to the enemy, but he is very righteous to his own people, even if it is the lowest soldier of the Taiping army, the food they eat belongs to the category of normal human beings, such as the air-dried meat that was robbed, the whole wheat bread that was robbed, the various local specialty fruits that were robbed, and the ......

Well, the Taiping Army, as a plundering military organization that does not produce anything, almost all of its logistics rely on burning, killing and looting, but the Taiping Army is robbing in accordance with the laws and regulations of the sacred treasury system.

It's like the state requires civilians to pay taxes is a due obligation, if you don't pay taxes, it is a matter of course for you to be arrested and killed, who calls you a native?

If you are born in this country, you should hand over part of your labor income to the government and the ruling class free of charge, otherwise, your personal safety cannot be guaranteed, because the violent apparatus of the state will tell you every minute that paying taxes is a citizen's obligation!

Therefore, Hong Tiancheng feels that the Taiping Army's approach is very logical, in line with humanistic culture, white civilians hand over their labor income, and the Taiping Army guarantees their safety (that is, they will not kill them), it is completely a fair deal, the country and the army let you live a life, you should be grateful, is there anything wrong?

At least, the Taiping Army did not pull white civilians to the battlefield as cannon fodder, and Hong Tiancheng felt that he was merciful enough.

In other countries on the European continent, the low-level commoners not only have to hand over part of their labor income to support the aristocratic class who are full of brains and intestines, and there are a group of people who work for them at every turn, but also have to bear the obligation to defend their families and the country in times of war, and throw their blood on the battlefield, when their families finally harvest a dog tag or an urn, they will get nothing but tears, except for a pitiful pension......

In the eyes of the ruling class, no matter how heroic and fearless and noble they are to be promoted, they cannot even be left with a name in history, and the only trace of existence is the cold number of casualties sent to the rulers.

Therefore, it is reasonable and justified that the people hate war, so why let the civilians sacrifice their blood, but let the rulers enjoy the fruits of victory?

Why is it that those who sit on it can enjoy the sun, wine, and even the personal service of beautiful women in the comfort of their offices or in the court, while most people stay on the front line at any moment of death, waiting for the sickle of death to come?

This world has never been fair, I don't want to become cannon fodder, I can only rely on myself to fight, the prince will Xiangning has a kind of reason why it can be inherited for two thousand years, precisely because it shouted out the voice of the vast majority of the people at the bottom, the people don't want to be cannon fodder, let alone be a lamb who pays taxes, they just want to live a stable life, so that their labor income is not deprived of the ruling class that has never bent over to do farm work without compensation!

Of course, everything is just the imagination of most people, and even many people don't even dare to have this idea, for the simple reason that people are afraid of death after all.

Hong Tiancheng is using this point of human beings to rule, he has a full-scale war system, he doesn't need the people's will, and it doesn't sound good to say it with violence, but in fact, all countries in the world are doing this, and the law is the measure of violent suppression!

Because the law can't control Hong Tiancheng, but it can control the civilians at the lower levels!

The citizens of Kiev who came to attend the founding ceremony of Hong Tiancheng did not care whether they were greedy for a pound of black bread or afraid of the deterrent power of the Taiping army, it was enough for the Taiping army to know who those who did not come and where they lived.

The 'files' of these people will be distinguished from normal households in the newly established copywriting department of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and these people will be used as the first group of people to be recruited when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom waged wars against foreign countries.

Under the sacred treasury system, the Taiping army could use open remarks to recruit and transfer its subordinates to serve as logistical labor or even cannon fodder for free.

It is conceivable that these Kievans, who were blacklisted by the Taiping Army, will have a few percent left after walking back and forth on the battlefield......

Isn't it normal to die hundreds or even thousands of people on the battlefield?
