Regarding the increase in the death penalty, Gu Hang was a little hesitant.

He felt a little bit like a virgin.

But he really didn't want to issue more death warrants in order to increase the raw materials for servo skulls and servants.

He didn't think it was appropriate.

But on second thought, it's not a big deal.

So, he proposed his idea to Lambert.

"On the one hand, it is necessary to improve the mortality rate of hard labor." Gu Hang said, "I know that we can't invest a lot of resources to improve the living conditions of prisoners, they are criminals, they are to serve labor, not to enjoy happiness, the alliance is now every resource is useful, and improving the humane treatment of criminals is far from a priority." ”

"However, the thing you have to deal with is the corruption of the prison guards, the labor overseers. The problem of withholding the treatment of criminals and deliberately abusing criminals should be clearly eliminated. This is not the same as improving the treatment of prisoners. ”

"I agree to a significant reduction in the number of sentences imposed on 10 years of hard labour. We make it clear that if the crime is really heinous and belongs to the person to be killed, then the death penalty is to be imposed, and the use of corpses is another matter; But if you don't want him to die, or still expect him to serve hard labor and continue to return to society after being reformed, then try to sentence him to five years or less, and don't put him to death. ”

Lambert listened and nodded.

That's good.

In the future, it is estimated that the number of 10-year years of hard labor will be reduced to 20% of the original amount; For the rest, half of the vicious criminals were directly executed and made into servo skulls or servants; If half of the crimes are minor, then simply give fewer sentences so that people can have a way to live.

Save every day from hard labor and overwork, and he will be scolded a lot; The servants and servo skull workshop people over there don't have enough materials, and they will be scolded.

After talking about the situation of the prisoners, I returned to the main topic of anti-corruption.

The fact that so many officials have been dismissed actually shows that the alliance's clean government work is not working.

Although there are historical problems that are difficult to change after the original rulers are transformed on the spot, the corruption of officials is always a major problem that needs to be guarded against.

However, there is good news. Among the officials of the Alliance, more and more people have graduated from the Loyal Heir Academy. In Lambert's anti-corruption campaign, people who have had experience in the Loyal Heir Academy are not all fine, but the probability of problems is much lower than that of converted officials.

After a large number of positions cleared up in the anti-corruption campaign are replaced by these newcomers, the problem of corruption can be alleviated to a greater extent.

Of course, on this premise, there may be another issue to consider: political stability.

The original ruling class was retained in order to enable a smooth transition of power. In addition, these people were indeed the most capable, most suitable, and most knowledgeable of the local situation that could be found at that time, so they were naturally chosen.

Now, the sudden replacement has become a public servant trained by the alliance itself, and turmoil is inevitable.

On the one hand, it is necessary to let people with intentions to cause sabotage, after all, those who dismount may have a good influence in their own local area; On the other hand, it is also these officials sent from the Central Committee of the Union who have to do a good enough job to quickly straighten out the local situation and take over the political situation smoothly.

However, in general, although there are no small messes, there are no major incidents.

After all, the policy of the alliance is generally good, and it is a basic tone to have a stable life just by setting a rank, and it is decided that no matter where there is no big incident.

Why? However, do you want to go back to live that kind of precarious life and not being treated as a human being?

Most people are not stupid.

And the handful of people with ulterior motives don't have to worry.

The Union has knives.

There is an army with the overall situation of the town; There is an ICAC that secretly conducts investigations; If you are a little more ruthless, the witcher may come to the door.

Since they can't incite a big chaos, they let them stumble away with their small actions in the dark, and they should be trained by the newly appointed officials.

After talking about the anti-corruption matter, Lambert brought up the third thing.

It's an intelligence-related thing.

"Before, when the 'Witcher' organization was first formed, we split that team into two. One group went south to investigate the corruption case in the northern Qinggu Province, and the other team was sent to the west to investigate the information about the black bird heavy industry in the west of the mainland. ”

"It's very difficult for the team going west to get in touch with our headquarters here. In the past year, the news has been intermittent and often lost, which is quite worrying. But the good thing is that after a while, they will always get back in touch and send back some information. ”

"Up to now, by sorting out this information, plus some information left over from the old alliance in the past, some old people's records, and some dictated accounts of businessmen, we have probably pieced together what the western part of the continent looks like."

"From the central bank province, to the west, is the Western Desert region. It's really sparsely populated. The vast desert is as large as the three central provinces and the three eastern provinces combined; A dotted oasis that feeds a small number of people. But it was also an important food producer for the entire planet of Raging in the past. Oases alone certainly don't produce as much food, mainly underneath those oases, where there are usually plantation factories left over from the pre-war era. ”

"In the entire Western Desert region, there are only five million people, so naturally there is a large amount of food to be produced."

"It's just that the only thing that can be produced in the Western Desert is grain, and there are no other large-scale products, let alone industrial capacity, so they can only rely on grain trade in exchange for other necessities. Their main buyer is Blackbird Heavy Industries, and only the few oasis territories close to the east do business with us. ”

"And further west from the West Desert, it is the actual control area of Blackbird Heavy Industry. The area there is only about half the size of the Western Desert region, about the size of the three eastern provinces, and the natural environment is also very similar. ”

"Blackbird Heavy Industries is stationed there. Fifteen million people work for them, and the majority of the population works in low-end industries, recovering from ruin mines, processing raw materials, and aggregating on a small amount of arable land to provide food...... And on the west coast, there is Blackbird City, which is the core industrial area of Blackbird Heavy Industries, where seven million people gather. ”

"Blackbird City is supposed to be the center of their heavy industry output, but the control there is very strict, and our people have failed to enter several times, and the people who entered have not been able to come out, nor have they been able to send out the message. It's a huge city, like a black box, and nothing can be revealed. ”

"They're continuing to try to infiltrate, hoping to get their hands on more core intelligence as soon as possible."
