The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 1228 Future Shogun
Some people may think that Magna Carta is the ideological source of British progress, which can promote the development of the British economy, bring more tax revenue, and enhance national strength...
After hundreds of years, there is nothing wrong with this statement, and it is indeed the case. However, in this era, Magna Carta is not only a driving force for British progress, but a huge and powerful resistance to Britain.
Because the Magna Carta of this era did not safeguard the interests of the bourgeoisie, let alone the interests of the common people, but only safeguarded the interests of the aristocratic class.
As for increasing taxes or something, don't be kidding, nobles don't pay taxes...
In fact, the only function of the Magna Carta in this era is to prevent the death of stupid kings, not to promote the development of Britain.
But the problem is that the nobles of this era are just as stupid as the kings, and they suppress and exploit the bourgeoisie and the commoners just as much. Therefore, to say that the Magna Carta of this era is a progressive thing is absolutely nonsense. Magna Carta can only become a boost to social development after the bourgeoisie has entered the political arena and has been revised. In this era when kings and nobles are as stupid as pigs, the Magna Carta, which represents the interests of the noble class, is fundamentally an obstacle to social development.
Of course, the Magna Carta of this era is not useless. For example, he restricted the king from raising taxes without restraint, which was probably the only positive effect of the Magna Carta in this period.
As for the right of citizens to self-government, it may be good for those citizens, but for a regime that wants to build a colonial empire, it is absolutely a disaster. The loss of the British colony of thirteen states in North America has an important relationship with this excessive decentralization of autonomy. The North American colonies themselves were established by a group of exiles and Puritans, both of whom were rebellious, and with the autonomy granted by the Magna Carta, Britain eventually lost its fertile North American colonies.
Fortunately, during this period, only England had such a thing, and the centralized monarchy system was still popular on the European continent. So, as long as Marin eliminated the Magna Carta in England, neither would Europe.
But Marin was certain that, in order to repeal Magna Carta, England would again be littered with corpses. The last time Edward took the throne, most of the people killed were great nobles. And this time, the butcher knife will be aimed at those petty aristocrats and the bourgeoisie...
In fact, Marin wasn't worried about those petty aristocrats. Because, as an aristocrat, although he is a bit stupid, he is also clever. In the face of the mighty Beihai army, those nobles would bow their heads if they didn't. Unless, they are tired of living. However, the burghers of those autonomous cities are not necessarily so aware of current affairs. And many revolutions in Europe were especially created by the bourgeoisie. The most representative of them is the French Revolution, which was all created by the bourgeoisie and had nothing to do with the peasants.
Because these citizens are relatively simple-minded and have no lack of courage (silly and bold),
When inspired by someone with a heart, it is easy to be impulsive. Therefore, Marin can be sure that the abolition of the Magna Carta this time may involve the blood of many English citizens on his hands. Fortunately, England was still an agricultural country in this era, and citizens only made up a minority of the population. So, don't kill too many people.
Cities in this era are basically pocket-sized, especially those in Europe. For example, a capital city like Vienna has a population of only 20,000. And Milan, with a population of more than 100,000, can already be regarded as the top big city in Europe. As for London, there are about 50,000 people. Unlike later generations, any medium-sized city has a population of 200,000 to 300,000 people, and a large city has a population of more than one million.
The main force of the bourgeoisie are artisans and ordinary workers, but the wool textile industry in England started late. From the era of Henry VII, England began to restrict wool exports and engage in the textile industry by itself. And Henry VII died a few years ago, so there should be fewer urban residents in England during this period, and fewer autonomous cities. So, Marin doesn't have to kill too many people.
In addition, if there are too many people who resist, Marin also intends to change his strategy - only a small number of people who make troubles will be killed, and the rest will be sent to the manor as serfs. Then, let the disciples of Bishop Taylor, the big fool, brainwash them every day.
These people who dare to resist the imperial court are actually relatively simple-minded, and smart people generally do not easily take the lead and die. Therefore, it is easy to brainwash these people. If it doesn't work, they will be locked in a small room by means of later generations' pyramid schemes, and Taylor's disciples will teach them to do movements and shout slogans every day.
These days, there are not many revolutionaries who have read a lot of books. Generally, those who take up arms and rebel are stupid and bold with relatively simple minds. Because the illiteracy rate in Europe was extremely high in this era, the literate people were all nobles, and the bourgeoisie could not afford to read books. For this kind of silly and bold, pyramid scheme to deal with them, it is absolutely easy to catch. You must know that many college students in later generations have been brainwashed by pyramid schemes. If you don’t believe them, these foolish and bold people can’t be washed away.
...
Thinking of the pyramid schemes that are being strictly investigated in many communities in later generations, Marin laughed. It seems that we don't need to kill too many people this time...
Then, Marin arranged for Kohler to inform Bishop Taylor to prepare a group of highly talented Frisian apprentice priests to learn brainwashing from Marin... When the new round of war in England is over, these will speak Frisian (can The missionaries who communicate with English) will bring those captured English citizens to shout slogans and do actions every day... Don't brainwash them, and never let them go...
...
So, Marin began to retreat, concentrated on "creating" (remembering) the slogans and actions that MLM used in later generations, preparing to teach those apprentices who fooled Taylor so that they could do things for him.
Just as Malin was sitting quietly in the secret room to create "Brainwashing Magic", Kohler suddenly came over...
"What's the matter?" Marin was a little unhappy about being interrupted.
"Master... No, Master, the oriental woman named Shuizi you brought back seems to be pregnant. Now that her stomach is firm, the doctor of the Ming Dynasty who accompanied her has given her a pulse, saying that she has been pregnant for four or five months... "
"Nani? Is this pregnant?" Marin was a little stunned.
You know, he and Angela have been married for many years, and currently there is only one son of Caesar. And Ganfushuizi was just used by Marin to relieve his boredom on the boat on his way back to China. As a result, I was pregnant with...
"It seems that I have to ask the Chinese medicine doctor to give Angela a pulse, because Mao has only had one birth for so many years..."
Marin was right, Angela did have some problems with her body. Of course, it's not a big problem, just some palace cold. And palace cold is a very common problem for women. For example, many girls who like to eat ice cream in later generations are prone to this problem. Angela also likes to eat ice cream, and she specially made an ice cellar to get ice cream for herself.
However, the problem of Gonghan seems to be small, but it affects fertility. Fortunately, Marin brought back Daming's traditional Chinese medicine and a lot of traditional Chinese medicine. Later, he supplemented Angela's body to solve this problem, and then reopened the fertility code...
...
Of course, Angela's matter will come later. For Gan Fushuizi's pregnancy, Marin's heart is very complicated. Originally, Marin didn't take Gan Fushuizi as his own woman at all, at most a dispensable **. But **pregnancy... well, it can't be someone else's, women in this era are not as chaotic as later generations. So, Marlin admits...
Moreover, Marin has already figured out a way out for his illegitimate child in the future——
"If it's a boy, I'll be a shogun in the future..." Malin said casually. Please use the latest domain name to read books on this site
