In fact, not all inner-city people are rich.

With this ruined productivity, where can we afford to raise so many rentier classes.

Most people in the inner city still have to rely on their own work and labor to support themselves and their families. They just have a relatively more solid family background, better education, and better and more opportunities.

They were industrial workers, clerks of factories and enterprises, clerks of the Chamber of Commerce, and officers of the Union government...... They have a stable, even decent job, but that's where everything comes from.

In fact, under the new system designed by Gu Hang, if these people do things well, their chances are still much greater than those in other cities. A better level of education and more work experience are their advantages.

But this cannot be convinced by propaganda alone. Gu Hang also didn't need to maintain stability through empty words for the time being, and his army would be able to do this in a short period of time.

As for the future, these inner-city dwellers will feel this through actual experience.

Actually, the whole political-economic architecture of the future, he already had some preliminary ideas, and with Osena passed the gas.

The entire livelihood system will be built on 45 levels: A-E stratification, with 9 levels per level.

Each level will be equipped with corresponding benefits, including food rationing, housing treatment, medical treatment, and determine the purchase rights of a small number of scarce goods.

Every regular employee will have at least E6 treatment after stepping into the workplace. Below E6, it is for apprentices, trainees, partially assisted students, convict workers, and those who are unemployed for reasons other than their own......

The specific level is determined according to the position and individual work contribution.

Although there is a certain link between rank and position, it is not exactly the same in practice. In the early stage and low grades, according to the seniority and work contribution, the rank will be upgraded year by year, that is, the basic treatment will be improved.

The rate of promotion will be slowed down after the senior rank.

Those with significant performance will skip a grade and be promoted.

The treatment of the soldiers of the army does not follow this line, but will correspond. Private and senior soldiers have allowances similar to those of grade E, depending on the specific differences in the troops, and after retirement, they will try to arrange the corresponding level of work; Non-commissioned officers, senior non-commissioned officers, and some lower-ranking officers correspond to the D rank; Middle- and high-level officers are treated with C-level treatment when they retire; The retirement of high-ranking officers and generals depends on the situation of B or A grade.

Ranks and positions will also be paid on a monthly basis, but they are no longer alliance coins. Now it is the division of labor, and there may be some monetary reform in the future. You can buy things at the store for the cost of work or currency.

Most civilian goods, as long as they are not scarce, will be put on the shelves normally.

Want to eat better side foods like cakes, ice cream, meat and dairy products in addition to your regular food rations? can be bought;

Want quality appliances? can be bought;

Want to buy a three-jumper, or even a car? It may not be available for a short period of time, but when the production goes up in the future and the demand for military supplies is satisfied, there is additional capacity, and it can also be bought. In the initial stage, there may be a rank limit, but after the production capacity is more abundant, the limit can be lifted.

When the materials are more abundant, such as personal hobbies, reading, entertainment, art...... You can buy it.

In other words, housing, food and clothing, and medical care, as long as they enter this new system, they will be guaranteed; Wages can meet higher-level, more personalized, and diversified needs.

Want something better? Yes, try to get a promotion and a raise.

Education is the exception.

This thing, Gu Hang plans to take the route of public, free, and all based on results.

And this system will bring future civil servants, industrial workers, service industries, and farmers ...... are all included.

Of course, at present, this whole system looks beautiful and has a bit of a utopian meaning, and I am afraid that there are many problems in implementing it.

Ensuring fairness, ensuring reasonable promotions, ensuring adequate supply of materials, meeting the diverse needs of individuals, fighting corruption, avoiding institutional rigidity, planning material distribution and production planning...... There are many problems.

However, this collectivized and planned system has a fundamental advantage: it is easier to concentrate on big things.

There is a fundamental difference from the modern world on the planet of rage: for a long time there was no problem of overproduction.

The significance of market regulation is not so great.

All excess capacity will be dissipated by the huge pressure of the empire's tax revenue.

The only thing Gu Hang has to do is to expand production capacity as much as possible, and no matter how many things he makes, he can't sell them or use them, it doesn't matter, the empire's huge system will eat all these things.

Under this premise, Gu Hang's most important point is how to make this system full of incentives for the people in the system.

He is not allowed to lie flat, eat and wait for death, and the situation of getting by in terms of welfare has appeared on a large scale.

These ideas should be hung with street lights, but they are what Gu Hang must do.

Promotions, salary increases, and the promotion of values are all positive incentives.

Performance appraisal, competitive promotion quota, demotion penalty system......

This type of relatively competitive means is also indispensable.

If the people don't work hard, how can Gu Hang develop?

Get to work, and next year the Governor will be able to change to a sports car.

Of course, this is a joke. What Gu Hang wants is not those low-level tastes.

Expand the army, develop industries, build starships, and raise one or more warbands...... His ambitions are great.

And to go back to the current reality, once these people in the inner city enter his new system, because of their own educational level, vocational and technical advantages, and previous professional experience, they will naturally do more than those poor people in the outer city who may not even be able to recognize all the words. It's easy for them to get a higher starting level and a faster level up.

As long as they support the Governor, they will feel the benefits.

It is not difficult to restore the standard of living of the past, and it is even inevitable with the increase in productivity. And better class mobility will give them opportunities that were simply not possible in the past.

The best days are yet to come!

……

Gu Hang's divergent thinking came to an end with the death of the last group of executed.

Then came another big event: the award ceremony and the military parade.

These two things are put together.

In fact, there are only about 10,000 people standing in the huge square, and the open space left is for the next military parade.

One by one, the troops, accompanied by bugles and majestic music, would set out from the outside preparation site, cross the main road outside the parliament square, and follow the road that had been given way by the spectators to the rostrum.

The commander of the unit will come to power, receive medals, receive military ranks, and more importantly, represent the entire unit, accept the number and flag.

The military music has already sounded, and the four military bands in the four directions of the square have made a lot of noise, and there are horns arranged in different directions, which further amplifies the music.

Immediately afterward, a square team slowly approached.

4 'Rambler V' chariots, leading the way. Behind them were tanks captured from the former Alliance Legion, all of which had not yet been repainted, and then a convoy of Iron Ox trucks, accompanied by Ranger motorcycles. These trucks range from fully loaded soldiers as personnel carriers to towing huge 155 howitzers.

This is the 3 battalion of the former Governor's Infantry Regiment. And in the front officer vehicle, sitting was Perbov of the 2 battalion, and the commander of the 3 battalion.

In fact, it stands to reason that the 2nd Battalion should be the first to be reviewed, and Perbov, as the commander of the 2nd Battalion, is indeed the first. It's a pity that he is a bit lonely, and the main force of his troops is still recruiting troops in Weixing City, so he can only rub the phalanx of the 3rd battalion.

The entire phalanx came under the rostrum, and both the soldiers in the car and on foot shouted slogans loudly!

First, the officer in front shouted, "For the emperor!" All the soldiers shouted along.

This was followed by the phrase "For the Governor!" ”

Gu Hang stood at the front of the viewing platform, watching his army walk by, his face was expressionless, he just nodded slightly.

The soldiers followed the instructions and entered the open space reserved for them in the square, and stood still. Pobov came to the stage together with the commander of the 3 battalion.

Gu Hang personally put on epaulettes symbolizing the rank of major for them; Immediately afterwards, they were dressed with medals.

Gu Hang personally designed two styles of medals.

At this moment, they are wearing the 'Restoration Medal'.

The medallion is in a circular shape and is held upwards with a hammer and is surrounded by ears of wheat.

The Revival Medal, Gu Hang intends to issue it as a basic medal. It is mainly awarded to soldiers and officers who have participated in a series of battles in Fuxing City and performed well.

Half of those who received the medal were heroic or wounded. The former doesn't need to be mentioned, and the latter is basically about to retire after taking the medal.

These medals, which were not recognized in the context of the empire as a whole, were not like military ranks. The rank of the Planetary Defense Force is recognized by the Imperial military, although the gold content varies greatly.

But Gu Hang still needs to establish this system.

Soldiers who fight for themselves deserve honor.

And, in addition to honors, there are tangible benefits to medals. The 'Revival Medal' itself is equivalent to an E5 allowance, don't look at it much, but this is an extra on top of the original soldier's allowance. In addition, this allowance will continue until retirement. Even in the event of disability or death, the pension will be higher.

In fact, the awarding of medals to those who were disabled, retired and killed in battle was also to give an extra pension to the soldiers who died bravely in battle, and send them to their relatives.

As for those who have no relatives, the political department of the army will arrange for an orphan - there are too many in the wasteland - to inherit these, but only if the orphan needs to inherit the hero's surname.

They will be raised in specialized institutions for war orphans and receive the necessary education.

After Gu Hang put on the ranks and medals of the two battalion commanders, the ceremony of awarding titles and medals to them was over, and the phalanx of the 4th battalion had already come from behind.

The two battalion commanders and the few soldiers they brought to the rostrum, each of them received a small box and a lot of rolled flags from the hands of the governor's retinue, and hurriedly stepped down to make way for the brothers of the 4th battalion behind.

The box contained a number of revival medals, which the battalion commander wore on the soldiers of his own battalion after going down; The rolled up flags are the battalion headquarters red flag and the company red flag, and the number of the team will be clearly written on them.

These flags were distributed and immediately raised by the standard-bearers.

Soon, when the next batch of chief officers came to the stage to confer titles and awards, the red flag fluttered in the first phalanx.

Among them, there are two special numbers - the 1st Waste Hole Company and the 4th 'Cody' Company.

These two flags belonged to the 1st Composite Battalion of the 1st Composite Brigade of Perbov. Although he didn't bring anyone with him, the friendly troops sent someone to help the standard-bearer and raised the flag.

The former was to commend Gu Hang's outstanding performance in many battles for the outstanding performance of the first company established by the natives of the Angry Owl Star; The latter, in recognition of the great achievements of the sacrificed Cody, was given to the company of which he served as political commissar, and this company was incorporated into the 1st Composite Battalion, which became the fourth company.

That's all there is to it.

To be honest, the level of military music with circular accompaniment is quite average; The phalanx of soldiers and vehicles is not particularly neat when walking.

From Gu Hang's point of view, especially comparing the military parades that I watched on TV before, it is almost meaningless.

But there's something completely different about it: it's really his army.

At his command, the guns of these phalanxes would open fire on any enemy for him; The soldiers in the phalanx will die for him.

Looking at them on the high platform, Gu Hang's heart was full of infinite pride.

The people of the inner city who watched the ceremony together were silent.

In fact, many of the soldiers who came in the form of a phalanx were familiar to them. Many of them were indeed soldiers of the former Union Legion, and a considerable number of them were absorbed into the 1st Composite Brigade; The rest will be filled into the skeleton of the 2nd Infantry Division.

However, the people of the inner city felt that these familiar soldiers looked strange at the moment.

There has never been any military parade in Fuxing City, and they can usually only see these soldiers when they are on duty and on duty. The people of the inner city are generally indifferent to the army.

But now, the whole army seems to be different from what they remembered.

The whole spirit is different.

Led by those red hats, the soldiers puffed up their chests one by one, and they were majestic.

When have the inhabitants of the inner city seen their own army and had such a mental outlook?

Oh no, it's already the Governor's army...... Hey? No, we also seem to be the people of the Governor, and this is still our army......

It's a bit confusing.

The people watched these familiar and unfamiliar soldiers walk in front of them, and then stand in a neat line on the other side of the square, with mixed feelings.

And the people in the outer city are not so complicated.

Fuxing City does not have the ability to broadcast the live screen, so it is not good to let everyone see the picture of this ceremony.

But at least, the technology for broadcasting via radio is still available.

Lambert's announcement of the death sentence for various characters was also broadcast live on the radio.

Compared to the calm of the inner city, the outer city is quite lively. As people went about their work, they heard about the executions of all sorts of bigwigs. They don't know who everyone is, but they always hear someone they know who they feel hateful being shot.

As a result, there were jubilant sounds on the construction site from time to time.

In the later award ceremony, the radio master of ceremonies will also read out the awards received by each unit and their merits according to the script.

This also made the poor people in the outer city understand that there was such a reliable army before, fighting to defend Fuxing City from being destroyed by the cult plot.

……

After all the armies had passed, the last two to come to power were Yan Fangxu and Tadius.

In the former, Gu Hang wore the rank of colonel for him.

Accepting this rank basically means that he bids farewell to the Imperial Navy sequence and joins the Planetary Defense Force sequence of the Raging Owl.

The relevant formal procedures have already been completed, and Gu Hang also specially greeted Brigadier General Yelicia for his business.

Since this is the case, Gu Hang also spent 10 points of grace to activate Yan Fangxu.

In his systematic evaluation, the rarity is N, that is, the ordinary level, he is a level 2 military commander, and the highest attribute point is the commander, reaching 12 points, and there is only one attribute of [excellent military commander], nothing special.

In addition to getting the rank of colonel, Yan Fangxu also received a 'revival medal'.

Next to him, Tadius, who was awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel, was also given a 'Medal for Extinguishing the Wind'.

The medallion has an irregular cone shape, which looks like an abstract tornado.

This is the second type of medal designed by Gu Hang, and only one was awarded this time, which is for Tadius.

There is no doubt that in the entire military medal system, the 'Wind Extinguishing Medal' is a hundred times more precious than the Revival Medal.

After completing the conferment of their individual titles, the two also received a flag each.

They saluted Gu Hang, wore military ranks on their shoulders, medals on their chests, and walked down with flags in their hands.

Then, they each went to the front of the two large phalanxes and handed the flags to the standard-bearers who had already prepared them.

The flag-bearer squad hoisted the red flag, and two flags were raised at the front of both armies.

The flag that Tadius brought with him was nothing special, and after it was unfurled, it was the banner of the [2nd Infantry Division].

The flag that Yan Fangxu brought down is a bit of a statement.

After unfolding, it reads: [1st Wind Extinguishing Brigade].

Undoubtedly, this is also an honorary number, which was given to the entire brigade in recognition of the outstanding performance of the officers and men of the brigade, including those of the former Union legionnaires who were absorbed into the operation, including the company that Tadius had previously led as a political commissar.

After completing the award ceremony, the broadcast signal switched to the microphone in front of Gu Hang. His voice, along with the megaphone, resounded throughout the square, and then throughout the city.

The people fell silent, and they began to listen carefully to the Governor's words, hoping to find some more credible support for the rest of their lives.

"Hello residents of Fuxing City, my most loyal warriors. I am your governor, Gu Hang. ”

"Just now, the warriors who fought valiantly to defend this city wore their due honor."

"I have given out a hundred Restoration Medals, and each of those who receive them is a well-deserved hero. They made outstanding contributions to the defense of Fuxing City, even sacrificing their lives. ”

"I presented a medal for extinguishing the wind, which is the highest honor, to Comrade Tadius."

"The storm 10 days ago is still fresh in many people's minds. With the help of the Immortal Birds and the Sisters of the Lily of Mercy, we thwarted the cultists' plots, we extinguished the storm, and saved the city. And Comrade Tadius is, without a doubt, the most outstanding of them all. He accomplished the most heroic feat at the most critical moment, with the most fearless attitude, and he achieved the final blow to extinguish the storm. ”

"Extinguish the Storm, this is where the name of the Extinguishing Wind Medal and the honorary number of the Extinguishing Wind Brigade comes from. All the soldiers who fought bravely, all those who maintained order and saved the city in the midst of the disaster, are heroes. ”

At the beginning of the speech, Gu Hang started with the origin of the Wind Extinguishing Medal and the honorary title of Wind Extinguishing Brigade.

The people of the inner city are silent, and they don't feel it deeply; People outside the city remembered the soldiers.

In the war of grain transport, they are right under their noses, fighting the cultists who are trying to destroy the grain wagons and make them hungry.

In the storm, which intensified and finally came to an abrupt end, they may not know what happened in several wind farms, but they clearly saw a large number of soldiers, maintaining order, distributing food and supplies in the wind and rain, and arranging for personnel to evacuate the city.

This army does seem to be different.

In the midst of the disaster, they did not use the weapons in their hands to smash and loot, and did not oppress the poor, but stood with the people and withstood the wind and rain.

These were all things they had witnessed, and the Governor's concluding words of praise reinforced their impressions.

Gu Hang's purpose is this.

He wants to give honor to the army.

Honor keeps the army disciplined, and honor makes the people love the army.

After saying this, Gu Hang paused slightly and continued his speech:

"Hundreds of years ago, before the War Era, the Angry Owl was a civilized world, the jewel of the entire Pegasus region. With the help of developed industrial technology and the unique enrichment of psionic gas fields for energy exploitation, the Imperial Tax paid by the Raging Owl Star each time can rank among the top three in the Pegasus Star Region, second only to the Flying Wing Star and the Nest World Koroga 3; The living standard of residents can be ranked second, only slightly worse than the Garden World Flying Wing. ”

"At that time, the angry people lived in the city, and many of them had decent jobs; Food and clothing are never a concern for most people. They enjoy the sunshine, the nightlife, the diverse gastronomic output, and the well-developed cultural industry......"

"Such a world of abundance is not to be seen on the planets of many empires. At that time, the Raging Owls were the envy of most of the inhabitants of the Imperial World. ”

Gu Hang's words made many people look complicated.

What it looked like before the war, no one saw it with their own eyes. But they have heard some of them from their predecessors, and even from their predecessors, from generation to generation; This is also evidenced by the occasional excavations from the pre-war ruins.

The angry stars of the past were indeed developed and prosperous.

Why, then, are our descendants so miserable?

The Governor gave an answer:

"The hateful traitor betrayed us. The best energy output on Raging Owl: the Psionic Gas Field, which was used as a source by the Chaos Traitor, opened the Psionic Tunnel. This tunnel connects a world corrupted by chaos; Under the shroud of evil law, even the demons in hell have been summoned. ”

"A tragic war broke out with the Angry Owl as the battlefield."

"The people of the Angry Owls, along with the soldiers of the Empire, have defeated the Chaos traitors, closed the psionic tunnels, and blown up the psionic gas fields with untold sacrifices...... But at the same time, the war, which has lasted for decades, has reduced the Raging Owl to ruins, turning this once prosperous world with a population of nearly 10 billion people into a wasteland. The collapsing ecosystem has spawned terrifying wasted storms and mutated monsters, and a large amount of land is no longer suitable for survival. ”

"Since then, the Angry Owl Star has changed from the former pearl of the star sector to a wasteland planet, abandoned by the empire, and removed from the star sector planning."

Many people don't understand this paragraph. What chaos traitors, demons, etc., I don't seem to have seen them; What kind of enrichment psionic energy gas field, what kind of psionic energy tunnel, is even more incomprehensible.

But it doesn't prevent them from extracting the point: our world has been betrayed by traitors and destroyed by chaos traitors.

Those ghosts are the culprits that destroy the good life we should have.

This reminded them of the original Raging Cult, which was also a cult and almost destroyed Fuxing City!

Gu Hang's words still continued:

"After a hundred years of darkness, an imperial official named Huo Haibin, when passing by the Angry Star, was surprised to find that there were still tens of millions of people still alive here. He helped the people here and applied through the star district government, and finally obtained permission to rebuild the Angry Owl, allowing the Angry Owl to return to the embrace of the Empire, and he also became the first governor of the Wasteland of the Angry Owl. ”

"Governor Huo is a respectable man, he has worked hard in the Angry Owl for 17 years, relying on the tax holiday of the first 15 years, he has worked hard to restore the population of the Angry Owl, establish a unified alliance, unite all forces on the entire planet, put an end to the constant and frequent conflicts over limited resources in the wasteland, and rebuild the initial productivity."

"But he didn't do enough, and in his seventeenth year as Governor, for the first time, the Raging Owl had to pay taxes to the Empire, and he needed to pay the standard Imperial tax. But the angry owl has not recovered yet, and even the lowest grade of tax payment can't be done. He was executed by the Ministry of Taxation, and the then Union government underwent a major reshuffle. ”

"Then, there was the era when Nell Falchers was the Viceroy, and it was also the time of the Second Governor that would make countless Confederacy people fear when they think about it. He learned from Governor Huo's failures, and with the help of the alliance government, he implemented many policies that Governor Huo would rather die than implement, and extorted tyranny on the entire planet. Everything was done to pay taxes to the Empire, and all production and restoration work came to a standstill. ”

"He completed the tax collection work twice, but for this he hollowed out the accumulation of Governor Huo for more than ten years. Countless families have been torn apart, and innocent people have been used as taxes; Countless grains that should have filled the people's stomachs, and countless necessary industrial products, were expropriated and handed over to the empire. ”

"Scourge is in for a catastrophe, and his unsustainable behavior has provoked a rebellion. He sat in this position for six years, and the alliance almost collapsed. Many people broke away from the alliance, many people rebelled, many people rebelled, and many people were exterminated...... The loss of the planet's population is enormous, and seventeen years of recovery are almost wiped out. What he did, in his third term, sent himself to the guillotine. ”

"Then three successive generations of governors, each of whom lasted only two years, were put to death when they could not pay their taxes. The remnants of the forces conspired to control the Governor's actions, tampered with the Governor's orders, and deceived the superiors and subordinates. Once every two years, the Governor and the Governor's government officials who have been temporarily selected for two years are substituted ghosts. ”

"In the whole process, Fury Owl spent another six years. These six years of division and chaos have not changed for the better than the time of the second Governor, there are still many people dying, and the whole planet still has no hope of revival. The name of Fuxing City seems ridiculous and sad. ”

Gu Hang used a large speech to tell the history of the Angry Owl Star in the past few decades.

And this time, people are very familiar. Twenty-nine years, from one to five governors, many of the younger ones grew up during this time; Older people have gone through these years completely.

They knew that what Governor Gu said was nothing to lie about, and that was exactly what they had experienced.

However, before that, few of them thought deeply, why is all this?

And after Gu Hang broke these points, they naturally thought about these questions.

Is it because of the Empire?

No, before the empire recovered the Angry Owl, during the half-year dark post-war time, the Angry Owl was in the state of a pill. It is a generation of governors who have established a minimum order, supported the structure of the alliance through imperial aid and interstellar trade, and supported many local industries.

Fuck it up with the second-generation governors and the subsequent governors who don't have real power.

The brutal but lacking level of rule of the second governor brought great disaster;

The three subsequent governors had no real power, no soldiers and no people, and were deceived and deceited. Almost every three of them felt that they could pay their taxes, and the news they heard was stable and good, but when it came time to pay the taxes, the contents of the warehouses were not up to par, and the population camps that should have been paid as taxes were empty.

The three governors could only sit in Fuxing City as wax figures, blindfolded and blindfolded, unaware that the alliance was so loose that it was about to disintegrate. The forces of all parties do not listen to the tune or the propaganda, and under the loose and fragmented system, the power of the planet cannot be integrated, let alone developed.

Then, it seems that the answer is imminent: the problem is not all in the Empire, the main problem is in the absence of a governor who is powerful enough, bold enough, and capable enough.

Of course, there are many people who can't think of this layer. The sufferings they have experienced in the past are like listening to a book from heaven when they talk about it on a larger and macroscopic level. Their train of thought can only passively follow the governor's story.

But then, Gu Hang's words are to be said to these people who are not smart enough, but are the most important and backbone:

"Until I came."

"I came into this world more than two months ago and saw devastation."

"At that time, I used the Coalition's communications to announce my arrival to the entire planet, and my ideals. I said that I would rebuild the entire wasteland world, so that every Raging Owl could live a good life through their own efforts. I am not here purely for the sake of taxation, and I will not care about the lives of the people for the sake of taxation. ”

"When I found out that the officials of the alliance were not only not able to help, but were hindering, I left Fuxing City."

"Now, I'm back. My declaration has never changed, and those who have prevented me from bringing you a reconstruction, a revival, a better life are dead. From then on, no one will stop us from building our city and our world together! ”

"I will establish a welfare system so that everyone who works hard can be fed and clothed!"

"I will build schools so that every child can learn and grow in a bright classroom, instead of stealing, begging, and doing child labor in black factories on the streets!"

"I will build factories, produce more goods, create more jobs, and make life better for you!"

"I will build hospitals so that everyone who is injured and sick can be cared for."

"I will build a fairer and more efficient government to maintain order and order."

"I will build a better and more honorable army to fight to defend all that we have created!"

"These are my duties, my mission, the mission of the new alliance government, and the mission of every angry man."

"Together, we will win!"

What Governor Gu said in the end was something that everyone could understand.

People cheered and people were excited!

"Long live the Governor!"
