Chapter 324 Social Issues
"It's disappointing. They don't seem to have learned any lessons from this incident." Lei Dianying put down the brush in his hand in disappointment. "The philosophers in the other world seem to have anticipated this situation."
“The only lesson humanity has learned from history is that humanity has learned nothing from history.”
“What a brilliant statement.”
Ren Lian Lingyi shook his head helplessly: "This may be the root of human inferiority."
"Human nature is so complex. Bravery is human nature, cowardice is human nature, sacrifice and nobility are human nature, but meanness is also human nature."
At the level of the entire Inazuma, the speed of the decline of the head of the Three Bugyo is relatively slow. Those civilian generals are really becoming more and more outrageous. The team that suffered the most serious losses due to arrogance is the hatamoto generals of the civilian faction among the Tenryo Bugyo.
If they themselves had not been dishonest, even the people from the Jiujiao faction would not dare to let the people from the civilian faction take the blame.
They were wrong in the first place, so it was only natural for them to take the blame. However, the civilian faction also tried to pass on the blame, which made Ren Lian Lingyi unhappy.
If you do something wrong, you must admit it. If you are beaten, you must stand at attention. If you can't even do this, you don't know how you became a general.
Among the three magistrates, the Tenryo Magistrate now has three major factions: the Kujo faction, the aristocratic faction and the commoner faction.
There are many small factions within the three factions. Among them, the Kujo family faction has at least two small factions, the main family and the branch family, and the degree of corruption is the least. The aristocratic faction is second. The big nobles are independent of each other, and the small nobles stick together. Although they are corrupt, it is acceptable .
On the contrary, the civilian faction, which was originally the most united and the least corrupt, split into several factions after experiencing a brief period of glory, and the corruption problem was the most serious. Of course, the most crucial thing was that the internal struggle was also quite serious.
Except for those who act alone, most civilian generals of most factions are really corrupt.
"This is a matter of course. Without external threats, internal corruption becomes a big problem."
"The Three Admonishments have a complete set of plans to deal with the corruption within their ranks. Although there will be problems in the long run, in the short run, there will be no problem at all."
"The means of the lesser nobles are inferior, but at least they have something."
"Civilians..." Ren Lian Lingyi didn't want to say anything.
He actually thought that civilians were quite useful, after all, most of his troops in the Rock Shadow and Thunder Campaign were civilians.
But those guys who were promoted from the common people according to Tianling's practice are really difficult to train.
Just deal with them. They haven't made any big mistakes, but it's really hard to say what to do if they can't be dealt with.
Sometimes, Ren Lian Lingyi really wanted to transfer these people to the Dark Sea and Heguan to open up new land.
Thinking of this, Ren Lian Lingyi's eyes lit up.
Yes, I can send these people to open up new land, which will just kill off the vigorous energy of these insects and prevent them from wasting time all day long instead of doing their work.
It just so happens that there are many deserted islands that can be developed around Heguan, Qinglai Island, and Haiji Island.
However, after Ren Lian Lingyi told the general about this, the general said, "I'm afraid they won't get a chance to do such a lucrative job."
“It’s true.”
"But we can draw some troops from the front line."
"We have to divert their attention, otherwise I suspect they will give us a big news sooner or later."
Speaking of this, Ren Lian Lingyi felt particularly tired.
"Okay then. We will continue to increase our efforts in land reclamation, reduce the number of troops stationed in various locations, and improve the quality of the garrisons," said the general.
That is to use high-level combat power to exchange for most of the low-level combat power, but how to arrange these people is also a problem.
The arrangements for the warriors who retreated from the Sea Island last time were made with great care.
"Perhaps strengthening industrialization is a good option, which can also solve some additional employment problems."
“Let’s start with food processing and non-staple food processing.”
Although Inazuma is a military state and its income has been decent in recent years, it has maintained the number of samurai and soldiers to face the dark military period.
It was okay when there were monsters a few years ago, and warriors and soldiers did have their own roles, but in recent years there have been no large groups of monsters like the bloody dog pack, and even those large hill tribes and evil spirits are rarely seen.
This makes the military force somewhat redundant.
So in fact, after saying so much, Ren Lingyi and General Lei Dian want to downsize.
On the one hand, it raises the threshold of the foot soldiers to LV20+, which means breaking through the first life limit.
On the other hand, they intend to improve the quality of warriors, raising the life energy level of the lowest level warriors from LV20+ to LV30+.
The requirements may not be so strict in the early stage, but the life energy level of the combat-side samurai must be reached, otherwise he will become a soldier (Ashigaru), or change his career to become a country samurai (machi magistrate system) or an acting magistrate (sha magistrate system).
As for the original foot soldiers, they were naturally given sufficient allowances to allow them to return home.
In terms of policy, there should be no problem in giving the warriors a five-year buffer period.
Moreover, in the future, there will be conditions for becoming a country scholar. It will not be like it is now, where you can do it just because you are qualified. Instead, you will have to go through an assessment to confirm that you have the ability to be a country scholar before you can do it.
Moreover, the future powers of the rural scholars will be divided into rural scholars (government affairs) and militia scholars (military affairs), and as appropriate, merchants (commerce), farmers (agriculture) and other rural scholars who will manage other aspects will be added.
Well, the main purpose is not to target those local tyrants who have too much power and like to abuse their power. That is a secondary purpose. The purpose of decentralization is to better realize the shogunate's control over the grassroots.
Although the previous shogunate had a profound influence on the grassroots, after all, everyone was a subject of Lord Narukami, and the world was ruled by faith.
But at that time, the shogunate's control over the lower classes was not strict, otherwise there would not have been so many people becoming pirates and vagrants and joining active groups.
"Have I done something wrong in continuously solving social problems in Teyvat?" Ren Lian Lingyi complained.
…
Chiyo: "What an amazing masterpiece! You actually reproduced the Eye of God in this world."
Wang Dongyao: "It's far from the Eye of God. It's just an ordinary instrument that can speed up the accumulation of innate Qi."
Wang Dongyao: "By the way, Chiyo, what are the monsters like in Xiaorizi?"
Chiyo: "It's similar to the monsters in Inazuma, but there are more Fusangjin, and fewer monsters in the clan. Unfortunately, after I extracted the innate energy, basically no monsters are willing to get close to me."
Lei Movie: “What’s going on?”
Chiyo: "I seem to have stimulated the demon side of my soul. When the demons saw me, they shouted 'Demon!' and 'You're going to be eaten.' They were no different from the little demons at Inazuma's place."
