Rebellion.

When the stability of the empire is reduced to a certain level, combined with policy factors, it is very easy to rebel.

But that doesn't mean stability is the first factor.

The key is to have a leader.

When the discontent has accumulated to a certain extent, and there is a capable person with his own ideas, it is not a problem to incite a riot.

There have been such things in Great Xia in the past, and the traditional festival food incident is an example, but it didn't go too far.

The development direction of the Lanxi Empire is a harmonious empire, and the stability of the territory has always been good.

And the reason for this rebellion.

It is because a large number of people were absorbed some time ago, and there was no management in place for a while, which led to the situation.

As mentioned earlier, stability is not the only criterion for the occurrence of a rebellion.

Even if the stability level reaches 80%, then at least 10% of the population does not agree with the development policy of the empire.

They all have different demands.

Food, clothing, shelter, transportation, eating, drinking, and having fun, there are always people who will not be satisfied, let alone some anti-social people.

In the midst of all peace, there are still criminal organizations, and if they are not dealt with, major cases will arise from time to time.

In addition, there is the ultimate desire of the population of the defeated country.

Restoration!

"Rebellion?" Cortana's eyes widened and she looked at Charlemagne.

Charlemagne smiled bitterly, "The Parthian colony planet has placed the people of three defeated countries, and they are each assigned to several urban areas. ”

"It now seems that some diehards, unwilling to submit to Lanxi's rule, organized the people of the two cities to attack the stellar base in battleships after seizing military power."

Charlemagne shared the star map information, on which a red ship symbol could be seen in a galaxy.

"......" looked at the picture, Cortana was silent for a moment, and then reported to Chu Hua.

Chu Hua was also stunned when he saw this news, and looked at the star map.

There are a number of blue flags in the Lanxi Empire, and that's their self-defense fleet.

And in the Parthian system, enemy ships inexplicably appeared, fighting against the blue marked fleet.

"Good guy, is the folk style so strong?" Chu Hua was surprised.

"It stands to reason that there should be a rebellion on the side of the Orange Cat Empire, why is there a situation on the side of the Lanxi Empire?"

Chu Hua is no stranger to rebellion.

There is always someone in the chat channel who broadcasts the rebellion going live.

The main problem with rebellions is that in the struggle within the empire, the destruction of the enemy too violently may cause discontent among some of the people.

In their opinion, this is their own people beating their own people.

After all, Our Lady is an eternal being.

The ruler has no problem saying anything, as long as he can accept the hidden danger of declining stability.

But if they are too gentle, the other party thinks that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it and cause more damage.

If there is a rebellion in the midst of civil strife in the empire, someone else may really seize power and establish an independent force.

To put it simply, it's a dilemma.

"It doesn't feel that simple, if they need it, you can help."

Chu Hua sent instructions to Cortana.

Cortana suggested to Charlemagne after receiving it, "Why don't you send our fleet over to help?" ”

"Nope."

"It's still not necessary, it's a family matter anyway, let's solve it ourselves."

Charlemagne shook his head, although the Lanxi Empire belonged to the vassal states of Great Xia, but before the annexation, it was better to handle the internal affairs by himself.

"It's just, I, Lanxi, have such a good policy and treatment, why is there a rebellion?"

A hint of doubt arose in Charlemagne's mind.

When the rebellion broke out, the conversation would not continue, so Cortana temporarily returned to the Ambassador's Mansion with the team to rest, and then started talking when the matter was over.

Charlemagne watched the rebellion in the main hall.

I was also thinking about the cause of the rebellion.

The Lanxi Empire pursued pacifism, no death penalty, pro-foreign policy, and **** system.

In addition to the additional benefits for administrative staff, all citizens are uniformly allocated housing to ensure food and drink.

There were no other enterprises either, and all consumer goods were uniformly produced and distributed by the empire.

The disadvantage is that the military power is insufficient, and the prosperity of the empire depends on the suzerain's assistance or trade with other countries.

When immigrants are incorporated into Lanxi, they are issued with temporary citizenship cards and enjoy all the basic rights in Lanxi, except that they cannot apply to become a public servant.

Within a period of five years, a person who has not committed any sin will officially become a citizen of Lanksee.

Such superior conditions can be possessed at this time, and when the empire stops expanding, it is not so simple to become a citizen of Lanxi again.

No matter how he thought about it, Charlemagne couldn't figure out why there were no rebels.

It seems that the truth will only be known until the rebellion is over.

The next afternoon.

The ending was pretty much the same as Charlemagne thought.

Although the rebels captured the same number of warships as the Empire, the number was still too small.

Pick up a few cruisers around the perimeter and let the rebels surrender and wait for the fall.

During the interrogation, Charlemagne learned why there was a rebellion.

It turned out that someone was secretly providing support and deploying a plan in order to weaken the control of the Lanxi Empire.

"Spies?"

Charlemagne's eyes narrowed as he looked at the list.

This is also a disadvantage of pacifism, and the relatively lax management of outsiders has also fostered this growth of intelligence agents.

"Send the villain generals to the cold areas to cultivate."

"As for the captured spies, let them go to the deep minerals to work and wait for their empire to contact them."

Charlemagne announced the fate of these people to his subordinates, and the punishment seemed harsh, but it was much better than the average military empire, after all, they all had uniform working hours in their territory.

Looking at the star map, Charlemagne was clear.

With the expansion of the open power system, the scope of the Lanxi Empire has expanded considerably.

There are a total of six key galaxies, each with two or three hyperspace lanes.

Above was the Ottoman Empire and five or six small states.

On the right are the Three Sun and Moon Alliance, as well as four or five empires.

The number of empires that can be reached diagonally below has reached more than a dozen.

Now, the location of the Lanxi Empire is simply the chosen one, and it is completely the golden trunk line between the stars.

Therefore, the appearance of spies is also in line with the cleanup, and the purpose cannot be to delay the process of Lanxi's annexation of Great Xia.

There are even some who say that they want to support the independence of the Lanxi Empire.

Charlemagne smiled at this.

If the Lanxi Empire wants to become independent, even if Great Xia is willing, I am afraid that the Ottoman Empire will be the first to rush down and eat itself.

After settling the rebellion, Charlemagne once again invited Cortana to discuss the path to the Ascension of the Lanxi Empire.

The scientific research strength of the Lanxi Empire is not strong, and now it is only a hundred per day, and it is very powerful.

Physics has just crossed 30,000.

Engineering is a little better, reaching the level of 33000.

The best is sociology, which has exceeded 40,000 with the addition of various religious psychology.

By the time the scientific research project is established with Daxia, it is expected that Lanxi will be able to promote to 4.0 in more than three months.

In the previous discussion, the Great Xia Fang hoped that the Lanxi Empire would become a commercial enclave, and they would become a bridge of communication between all the surrounding empires.

and a safe place to trade.

Although all the proceeds belonged to Great Xia, this would not only allow Lanxi to maintain his sovereignty, but also make the territory rich.

Why not?

Sovereignty is the most important thing in the empire, it is not only related to the existence of the ruler, but also the right to communicate with the outside world, rather than obeying the instructions of the suzerain.

Moreover, even if Great Xia declines in the future, as long as he handles it properly, Lanxi will not be affected.

Charlemagne was impressed.
