Chapter 1427: The People's Heart and the World

On the mountain road, a group of ants, carrying dirt and stones, slowly walked along the high majestic mountain road to the top of the mountain. At the top of the mountain, where the clouds were shrouded and the mist-fog was churning, the mages flew around the huge mage tower, using magic to shape the stones, dirt, etc., and build some new additional buildings, some of which were so large that they were almost one-fifth the size of the main tower!

"It's really a waste of money and labor!" Haidar, who is an external consultant to Midland, sighed a little when he saw this: "Under each mage tower, there are the blood and tears of the people of the five manors. Alas~~~ These people don't look good. If there is more oppression, I am afraid that the right side of the people's hearts will only. And the silver armor boy next to him also looked at these sweaty people with pity: "The construction must be completed within a month, and it may not be successful if it is completed." It's the busy farming season again, so disregard for the people's power, it's really ~~~ Alas~~~ sister, you should also persuade your father, even if you want to get these things, don't be in a hurry at this time. We must put the interests of the people first in everything we do, and we must take the people's hearts as our own hearts~~~~"

This kind of bar-la-la-la-la-la As for 'taking the people's hearts as your own hearts'~~~~ Midland suddenly asked rhetorically: "The people's hearts, the people's hearts are really reliable? Wasn't there a forced sale a few days ago? At that time, the 'people's hearts' wanted to kill all the people, saying that only in this way could justice be served." Whoever dares to question this case a little will be pointed out by thousands of people and scolded by thousands of people. As a result, the donations ran away, and the strangeness in the case was also exposed. Now the 'people's heart' is saying that the punishment for those people is heavy, and it is the administrative interference in the judiciary. Hum. What is the 'people's heart'? 'The people's heart' is like water, and it can't be relied on at all!!"

"Those who lose the hearts of the people will definitely lose the world! This is true of the kings who have fallen in history!" When the silver armored prince said this categorically, Midland shook his head: "Yes? But what about the nobles under the king? What about the rich gentry of the earth? What about the rich families? The kings have fallen, but they are still there. Even continue to be a nobleman in the new dynasty. Isn't it the same with the kingdom of Raziraka?"

The silver armor prince was stagnant, and when Raziraka established the country, it was because a large number of nobles from the previous dynasty had fallen over, so the dynasty change was quickly realized, and this also laid a hidden danger for the later civil strife. Rao is so. It still has to rely on the support of 'acquaintance nobles' such as the Duke of Van Doren and the Silver Armor Prince's family. It is not difficult to unify the whole country, otherwise it will not be difficult to divide into several countries.

"The king and the country have lost the hearts of the people. Midland suddenly said in a heavy voice: "But don't the nobles, rich gentry, and wealthy families who actually manage the people continue to live well? Although a number of people are dead, the living people may not have won much popular support." I also recently read some information about the establishment of the country of Kanremai. She repeatedly wore beautiful blonde hair: "Actually. At least half of the population at that time did not support independent statehood. And that's not even counting people from the remote countryside. If you count it, it is estimated to be more than sixty percent. Although there are many harsh policies in its home country, it has not yet reached the point where the people are not able to make a living. Even in the early days of the Revolutionary War, there were many tax reductions. However, there is a small group of rich gentry and wealthy people who are stirring up fires everywhere. A large group of pen and staff are hired to incite rebellion everywhere under the banner of so-called national self-determination, freedom and democracy, resistance to discrimination, and political progress. To put it bluntly, a group of newly promoted wealthy gentry and wealthy families do not want to pay taxes to the nobles of the home country, and want to obtain the status of nobles by virtue of their wealth, but the nobles of the target country do not want to be birdy of them. It just so happened that the mother country was at war with other countries, and the entire battle line stretched for thousands of nautical miles, from the ocean in the east to the narrow strait in the west, and the war situation was very tight. So they fooled a group of fools into pursuing independence, you can see if you look at the War of Independence, the people who fought were civilians and slaves, and after independence, they were all rich people who became commanders and parliamentarians. ”

"How can there be ~~~" The silver armor prince was dumbfounded, and he had always been instilled that "the independent revolution of Kanremaia is a great, truly liberated, and truly revolutionary war, an objective result of the victory of justice, and a great mission given by the gods." He could not accept this argument at all: "How can it be so unbearable? Even if there are a few inferior gentry, how can they achieve a great victory without the full support of the people?"

Midland smiled, and the word 'childish' almost popped out of his mouth: "A handful of chief messengers, large estate owners, land speculators, big smugglers, officials who collude with smugglers." The so-called rebellion against the tea tax incident was actually because these smugglers were extremely rampant in smuggling tea, which severely damaged the normal economic order of the colony. In order to protect the interests of the legitimate merchants of the colonies and the health of the people, the government of the host country urgently dispatched a large quantity of tea from the Oriental Company to Kanremaia. In order to crack down on these smugglers, a strategy of high volume and low price was adopted, and the market price was only half of that of smuggled tea. This harmed the interests of the smugglers, who took the risk of dumping the tea into the sea and planting it for the barbarians in the vicinity, which is known as the 'tea dumping incident'. Hmph, it is obviously a smuggler who is rampant and insidious, but it is called the so-called 'rebellion against tax tyranny'. It's a lot of stuff inside!"

"Speaking of barbarians~~~ In fact, people are not barbaric. Midland was at a loss for the laughing and sneering Silver-Armored Prince, "In order to balance its political power and resist the enemy nation in the north, the mother country retains the barbarian area. But this greatly harms the interests of land speculators. In the early days of its colony, Kanremaia gave away land to all immigrants, but because a handful of profit-hungry land speculators, in collusion with some corrupt officials, they acquired land at a low price that should have been given free to working people, and then sold it at a high price. Among them was the notorious Indie Lynchlandford family. They had coveted the territory of the barbarians for a long time, and when they saw that the policy was introduced, they completely ignored the needs of the state government, jumped over the wall for their own selfish interests, and incited a group of people who did not know the truth, and became the most stubborn opponents of the government of the mother country in the colonies. ”

"Do you still remember the garlic you ruthless, the bean you play, and the 'salt shortage' a few years ago? This is the kind of goods that are insatiable and disregard for national law, and do everything possible to dress themselves up as human rights fighters and shift all the responsibilities to others. The slightest disadvantage of the policy for them immediately beckoned a group of penmen to fan the wind and light the ghost fire in the magazine this weekend. What brick family is called the famous XX family, all of them have come out to point out the country, and make a large set of fools who are straight up the market, democracy absolutely, the road to enslavement, and procedural justice are greater than a qiē or something. In fact, the real problem is deliberately concealed. Turning your hands into clouds and turning your hands into rain, just like this spring sale case!"

The Silver Armor Boy really smiled bitterly: "Where have you been in the past few years? How have you been brainwashed? If the sages of Kanremaia are all selfish and disregard the interests of the people, how can the people support them to win a great victory?" Seeing that Midland almost sneered and said: "The victory of popular support? You still haven't read the history carefully - the majority of the people in the colonies actually did not intend to divide, and many people organized themselves into loyalists. They provided food, munitions, and accommodation to the armed forces of their home countries, and risked their lives to reconnoiter the military intelligence of the rebels for the armed forces of their home countries. What is particularly touching is that they also spontaneously formed a militia organization to fight to the death against the rebels in order to maintain national unity. In New York City alone, more than 41,600 patriots joined the loyalist faction. According to conservative estimates, one-third of the people at the bottom of the population joined the loyalists throughout the insurgency. The rebels and their collusion hated and feared to death the patriotic behavior of the vast number of colonial people in North America, and they organized the reactionary terrorist organization "Security Committee" to persecute the patriotic masses, confiscate their property, throw them into prison, tar them with feathers, and even kill them. After the end of the rebellion, hundreds of thousands of patriotic people were forced to leave their homes and go to the north and other places, which also caused a very severe humanitarian disaster. ”

"As for the so-called 'Great Victory'~~~" Midland said with a sigh: "In the first year of the war, civil strife broke out on the rebels' own territory, which was bloodily suppressed by the rich gentry and bureaucrats. On August 27 of the following year, the rebels were routed at Linkruble. In September, the economic city of New York City was lost. In the second half of the third year, even the lair of the rebels was occupied by the troops of the mother country. From beginning to end, they were defeated and retreated! Because the main force of the rebels was actually a group of slave holders, smugglers, and smugglers who fought for military pay. Mercenaries only, a small number of volunteers from various states, and some are even underage children, the rebels' infantry regiments are all formed by each state, and the weapons and equipment and food are distributed separately by the legislatures of each state, so at this time, in essence, he is only hired by smugglers to lead Mr. Luo Yin's situation is very embarrassing: as the commander-in-chief who was hastily appointed by the Continental Congress on the second day after the establishment of the Continental Army, Mr. Luo Yin can neither directly command the infantry regiments by the state legislatures, nor can he persuade his employers to pay the military salaries of the armies of other states, and finally he becomes a mascot sent by the Continental CongressThe various infantry regiments under his command only obey the orders of the state legislature, and often fight on their own, and the mascot Mr. Luo Yin can only get the news from the Continental Congress where his troops have gone, who they have hit, and where they have withdrawn. ”
