Yes, trains, and nothing wrong is trains. www.biquge.info At the same time as the laying of trains and rails in the native territory of the Russian Gothic Empire, in the vassal areas of the south, that is to say, in the territory of the original Ottoman Empire, the construction of rails, trains and railways was also in full swing.

It was like William's concern. If there is a problem with the empire, then the probability and probability of a problem in the external vassal realm is much greater than the probability of the occurrence of the mainland.

And if you want the empire to truly become a great empire that is unparalleled in the world, then you must digest and absorb all the territories you currently have in your hands and turn them into your own territory.

To do so, you need to do three activities and achieve three goals. That is, economically, politically, and culturally.

Political unanimity has gone farthest so far, but still not to the extent that William had hoped to turn all the realms into imperial provinces. For now, at least, there are some difficulties in implementing the institutions and laws of the Russian Gothic Empire in these regions.

The empire did not have enough administrative resources, not to mention talents, and the resulting administrative costs were also a considerable burden on the central government.

In addition to this, the Russian Gothic Empire had to take into account the ideas of powerful people who occupied the region itself. That is, those local nobles, and those dark elves.

These guys occupy the means of production, occupy public opinion, and occupy more power. So much so that the Russian Gothic Empire was a bit of a mouse-thrower.

If you force these things up, it will definitely cause all this turmoil. Eventually led to the chaos of the empire.

Especially at the moment, when the Empire was in serious foreign troubles and needed to compete with the Britons and the Visigothic Republic.

So, the empire currently has to resort to such tactics.

That is, cooperation. Preferential treatment, tolerance of the strength of these places. Even William's decision to roll the sheets with the dark elves' Su Dan and the general was out of this consideration.

On the other hand, there is education, and the subtle influence.

The Romans have been doing the same thing since pre-AD times, just as the Gothic Empire of Russia is now doing to the people of the steppes who are of various ethnic origins, but who are unified into a Cossack subculture. These guys are hopeless.

They are too old, too stubborn, and can't keep up with the times.

But their juniors, their children, have a bright future. Gather them, the first is to take these guys hostage, and the second is to let these guys receive the advanced education and advanced ideas of the Russian Gothic Empire. Let these guys become loyal followers of the empire both in terms of educational philosophy and ideology.

This is also the reason why the education sector of the Russian Gothic Empire received so much funding.

The Russian Gothic Empire spared no expense in establishing free, public academies in those occupied territories, and even through preferential measures, to encourage these guys to send their children to school, to learn the language, writing, and culture of the Russian Gothic Empire.

All this was the plan of the Russian Gothic Empire. So far, it seems that there are no problems with this series of plans, and of course, the power of this series of plans has not been demonstrated.

But William believes it will definitely work. In the end, after dozens or hundreds of years, you will definitely be able to get what you want. Uh-huh, that's it, that's it, there's nothing wrong with that at all.

Although there will be many twists and turns in the process, even the story of the "last lesson" written by some dead liar and now becoming a laughing stock will most likely be made up by those stupid and unscrupulous literati to prove how evil and damned the empire is.

And in addition to cultural resistance, it is not impossible to resist in practice, even rebellion.

Will the barbaric and backward peoples and tribes who maintain their traditions and habits really want to accept a guy who looks completely different from them as their monarch?

Yes, there is nothing wrong with this guy according to the decree of succession that he should be his own ruler. The question is, is he really a Berber & Levantine & Turkic?

Is a guy like this, who has been poisoned by the evil empire and has completely become a loyal lackey of the empire, really fight against the empire for our benefit?

Thoughts like this are bound to arise. And the resulting conflict. Even killing the ruler who doesn't look like them at all, and then rebelling or something, it's definitely not uncommon.

In this context, the attitude of the Russian Gothic Empire became even more important. All kinds of chaos, all kinds of battles. It is even indispensable to retreat, to take three steps forward and one step back, to fight tactics or something, to paralyze the enemy or something. It's all going to be done.

In fact, if William's appetite, William's ambition is a little smaller, and then a little smaller. He should be satisfied by now.

Well, yes, totally satisfied. His empire had expanded too much, too much. Big outrageous. And what he should do now is not to continue to expand his territory or anything, but to spend the next time ruling and managing his territory, and promoting the development and integration of the economic, industrial, and cultural fields, then maybe William will be more successful.

Because now, his empire has enough resources, population, and markets. Even if all other directions of the world and land are cut off now, only the Russian Gothic Empire will remain, and the internal resources alone will be enough to ensure the growth and development of the empire.

Even if there is no other territory, even if this is the case, the empire will develop naturally, and with the size and resources and population of the empire, it is enough for the empire to naturally become the most powerful country in the world.

However, William did not choose this path that seemed very easy......

......

Finally, it is easier to rely on the military, technological and economic advantages of the Russian Gothic Empire, as well as the economic and industrial advantages of the Russian Gothic Empire, coupled with the advisers sent by the empire, it is easy to "guide" and "guide" the development direction of those territories. So in fact, the Russian Gothic Empire, together with the former Ottoman Empire in the south, has long been economically integrated, forming a huge and vast market.

Although the new territories are in a weak position in this market due to their own problems, even so, the Russian Gothic Empire is still unable to integrate all the strength here.

Because, although economically, these bastards had to support the Russian Gothic Empire, but economic and political things cannot be generalized.

Although there is a theory that politics is a continuation of the economy or something. But that just sounds like a lot of power. In reality, this is not the case.

Not with such a politically prioritized state as the Russian Gothic Empire.

Or, rather, the vast majority of countries in the world are not.

It is said that politics is the continuation of the economy, and the military is for politics or something. It sounds plausible, but it's actually just a Cthulhu-like murmur from a monster called Capital. It can't be true at all - because to achieve all this, there needs to be a premise, that is, the economy can decide everything, and everything is in the service of the economy.

In other words, everything is in the service of capital.

As long as there is a demand for capital, it will create war, as long as there is a demand for capital, it will be enacted, amended, or simply divided into a certain law, and as long as there is a demand for capital, then all the wretched creatures in this world will have to serve for capital.

This is perhaps a very pleasant thing for those capitalists who have mastered capital, who have imperceptibly influenced and manipulated the situation in the whole world.

Of course, in a sense, these capitalists themselves are just slaves of capital, and their status is not something to be proud of or envied.

At least not for someone like William, who is in control.

If the capitalist aims at capital alone, then he is only a derivative of capital. They are being exploited by capital. All they do is work for the continuous multiplication of capital.

They can trample on all the morals and laws in the world in order to increase their capital, they have no humanity, and they don't know what is meant by moderation. Their lives and lives are always like this. Their fine clothes and luxurious pleasures are only wrapped in their decayed and depraved interiors, the outer garments of their souls that have long since rotted, and there is nothing to be proud of.

That's it.

That's one of the reasons why William despises these guys so much.

Is it the state that controls capital, or is it capital that controls the state. The game between politics and economics has become white-hot in William's previous life.

William definitely didn't want to see that in his own country if he could.

Stand to reason.

It is not capital, nor bureaucracy, that rules the country. Although the vast majority of countries in the world are actually controlled by capital or bureaucracy. But Wilhelm von Hereford didn't think so.

It's difficult, though, and even that this has never happened before. But, yes, at least in the time of Wilhelm von Hereford's life, it was neither capital nor bureaucracy that ruled the world's largest, richest, and most powerful country.

It's the will.

The Will of Wilhelm von Hereford! )
