149. Feudal landlord class
In the history of the game, as Arthas became the Lich King and Lordaeron was torn apart, the title of Lord of the Alliance naturally fell to Varian, who had to pay heavy taxes in order to maintain the army that fought against the tribe all year round, and as a result, the inhabitants of Storm were miserable, and many families struggled to make ends meet.
That's it, because the human kingdom of Azeroth has no rules to support the families of martyrs, and many children have become helpless orphans, and they can only live in orphanages.
However, since most of the people did not have enough to eat, and no one donated to the orphanage, these children could not even beg for anything, so they had to do some dishonorable things.
Vanessa's father had just died, and by chance she had also entered an orphanage, and finally she was able to organize Defia again, and these orphans probably helped a lot.
Speaking of which, let's talk a little more, about the war, we can analyze it in more depth, Varian definitely doesn't want to see his people live like this, but because the tribe has been in power for a long time, he must maintain an army to fight the tribe, and he can be regarded as helpless.
Admittedly, Brain-Dead Roar is primarily responsible for the war, but the Coalition is not a pure victim either.
For example, at the crossroads, the Minotaurs had a camp called Taurazu, which was later destroyed by the Alliance, and all those who are familiar with the history of the Minotaurs know that the Minotaurs are a peace-loving race, and with the exception of a few radical clans, most of the Minotaurs do not actively fight others.
The reason for the slaughter of this camp was due to some of the warmongers in the Alliance, who had just come to power at the time, and that the Alliance and the Horde had signed a brief truce after working together to defeat the Lich King, but it was clear that some people did not want to see the war stop.
For example, those merchants, who would come to them to buy weapons and equipment if there was no war? For example, those small nobles, if there was no war, where would they go to get military merits? How did the label on their head rise gradually?
Of course, in feudal society, merchants and nobles are equated, and without backers, it is difficult for any businessman to become bigger.
Now continuing to talk about the Taurazu camp, at that time, someone wrote a false letter to the commander of the northern castle of the alliance, which said that the army of the Minotaur had secretly assembled in the Taurazu camp and wanted to attack the northern castle, and then with the cooperation of various ill-intentioned people, the commander of the northern castle believed what the letter said, of course he could not sit back and wait for others to attack him, in order to catch the minotaur by surprise, he attacked the Taurazu camp overnight, but after the final victory, he found that there were only civilians here, and he knew that he was being used......
Whether it's an alliance or a tribe, there are good guys and bad guys everywhere, and war is never a one-man business, but a general trend, and this general trend cannot be reversed by Varian alone.
And in this time and space where Zhang Li is located, due to the defeat of the parliamentarian army, many people who have a relationship with them have been arrested, and he has seen a lot of familiar names on the list, many of those names are generals who fight with the tribe in the future, it can be said that they are those main battle factions, and some of them even have a good reputation, and they may be able to mix up the title of heroes if they say it.
It's just an insult to the word hero.
From the fact that they colluded with these parliamentarians, we know what these guys who are eyeing the powerful are all about.
In the time and space of the game, because Varian took back the military power in the name of avenging Marshal Wendsol, those councilors were honest one by one, but Varian didn't dare to do anything with these people for the stability of the kingdom, and the cancer remained.
Then these cancers began to ravage the country from another angle, and Vanessa was able to revolt again thanks to these people.
However, there is no role for them in Zhang Li's time and space, although many nobles want to get these people back, and Marcus and they are forced to release people, but under Zhang Li's persuasion, they are all sentenced to hanging, which will definitely kill the wrong good people, but who cares.
Although Zhang Li doesn't care if they are a scourge or not, it is very unfavorable for him to control the government by keeping these nobles, these nobles with complex nepotism are the most repulsive to the grassroots class like him, and when the time comes, he is afraid that he will not put all his energy on making peace with them, that is not good, he will have to spare energy to enhance his power.
In short, that's all the nonsense, and then move on to Defia.
In Zhang Li's view, the existence of Defiya depends entirely on whether the people are forced into a desperate situation and are forced to commit crimes, so they will naturally think of Defiya, so if they want to solve Defiya at the root, they must let the civilians have food.
"In many places, people are peasants during the day and Defiya at night, especially in the Western Wilderness, since I am from there, I can tell you very responsibly that even there are many duplicities in Grian's People's Army, this is the case, it is absolutely impossible for us to defeat Defiya by force, the real way to disintegrate them is what I just said, to provide civilians with a chance to live, so that they have something to do, no one wants to commit crimes, and no one will take the initiative to be robbers if they can live without committing crimes, so that it will not be long before Defiya ceases to existγ β
Hearing this, Marcus and the others were humiliating, even Bolval.
He exclaimed: "It's incredible, although I also think that the most important thing is not to solve Defiya, but I am not as deep as you think, I think the most important thing at the moment is actually money, there is nothing in the treasury, we can't even pay next month's military expenses, this year's taxes were only collected two months ago, but they were all taken away by Anthony and them, although my family is also greedy for a lot of ink, but the money is not enough to support until next fall." β
Actually, the most important thing I'm talking about relocating civilians is money, and we can't do anything without money or food. Zhang Li affirmed.
"Aren't the defeated councillors rich? we won them, so wouldn't we be able to take the money?" said Master Martin assumedly.
"No, we can't find even a grain of grain from them, and Duke Eberlock and Duke Solomon agreed to send troops on the condition that they are from the families of those councilors, otherwise why do you think these two figures who sit firmly in the Diaoyutai are willing to be involved?"
"But I heard that they had a conflict over the division of the spoils, and the two seem to have the intention of fighting......
..................
Money and food are the foundation of everything, without these two they can do nothing, in the end they can only go to the two most profitable dukes to borrow money, estimated that the interest is a lot, and there may be some other conditions attached, in short, after this difficulty.
Then they began to discuss some other nonsense, all kinds of trivialities that made the few of them discuss for three days and three nights, and it was thanks to Bolval that they could do so quickly.
After that, everyone finally had some free time, and Zhang Li was finally able to see the territory that belonged to him.
A small village on the shores of a crystal lake.
