Chapter 4420 The power of the people is unstoppable

Wang Miaoyin breathed a long sigh of relief: "It turns out that you have already thought about everything. Brother Yu, you have said so much to me today, and you are all speaking from the bottom of your heart. I am really touched. After I go back, I will try my best to make you happy."

Mom cooperates with you, and the Xie family cannot hold you back no matter what."

Liu Yu said calmly: "I don't want to announce it to your mother now, including to Fatty, about my time travel from the next life. I also want to keep this secret for the time being. If it weren't for Doupeng taking the initiative to mention it to you this time,

, wants you to help him deal with me, and I don’t want to tell you about it. I’m sorry, Miaoyin, but this matter is too important. Even to the people closest to me, I don’t want to reveal my identity like this."

Wang Miaoyin nodded: "I understand, just like those who seek immortality, or the immortals who have achieved immortality, they will hide their identity. After all, they are different from ordinary people. If they are too close, they will attract the attention of people with evil intentions.

The threat may be that thousands of years of Taoism will be destroyed in one day. This kind of thing does not need to be explained. We can all understand it. It’s just that in your ideal system, the Xie family is not passed down to the descendants like the emperor. In fact, according to your current situation

According to this set of rules, if you inherit a title, you will have to surrender it if you have no merit. In this way, if a big family like the Xie family cannot make contributions to the country from generation to generation, it will slowly lose its power and wealth."

Liu Yu said seriously: "I know that this will make those descendants of the Xie family who want to rest on the merits of their ancestors feel resentful. After all, in the past, they could be born with wealth and splendor, and they were destined to have power, no matter what.

Unworthy, even if they are like Wang Guobao, they don't have to worry about not having an official position. But the more wealthy they are, the more they will seize other people's positions and resources, so that the truly talented and capable people will have no chance to succeed. In this way

Contradictions and grievances will continue to accumulate until they are irreconcilable, and large-scale civil strife will only occur from the bottom up."

"This is how the reforms and civil wars of the Western Yi powers came about. Because the king took too much and occupied too much, it violated the interests of the princes and lords, and the princes and lords were greedy and infringed on the small nobles at the next level.

, the interests of the knights, the ruling group finally split internally, and the small lords of the middle and lower classes began to awaken the people and raise armies. Due to the advancement of technology, many fire-related thermal weapons will appear in later generations. These thermal weapons no longer resemble

The bows, swords, swords and halberds of our era require skilled practice and professional warriors to operate them."

Wang Miaoyin's eyes lit up: "Are you saying that besides mechanism techniques, there are other military innovations in later generations?"

Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, just like a thousand years ago, our wars were all wars between nobles. The princes and nobles fought in chariots, and everything paid attention to rules and formations. But after the Warring States Period,

, the military reforms in various countries allow civilians and even slaves to go into battle. The movements they usually make when farming and swinging hoes can be used on long weapons such as daggers and spears. Due to their large number, they can take the lead in using manpower.

One side will gain the advantage in the war."

"The same is true in later generations. In order to rule the people and quell their resistance, the aristocratic lords in the past practiced martial arts professionally. A fully armed aristocratic knight who had practiced martial arts since childhood could defeat dozens of farmers who went into battle with farm tools. This

It was the basis for the feudal lords to rule the people before the Western Yi Powers' reform. In our world, it is actually similar."

Wang Miaoyin nodded: "Yes, most of the housekeepers in the manor are veterans who have fought in the war. As long as they put on armor and pick up steel swords, a few people can suppress hundreds of households.

Manor, it seems that this point is the same at all times and in all countries, so can the hot weapon you mentioned be used by ordinary people with a little training, so that the advantages of these professional warriors will no longer exist? "

Liu Yu said seriously: "Yes, later generations have made changes in technology. They can use the power of flame burning to explode instantly, generate powerful force, and shoot sharp points like arrows. We call these points bullets.

Its power is enough to penetrate heavy armor at a distance of one or two hundred steps, so the biggest advantage of professional warriors, that is, the protective power of the armor's stomach, no longer exists. With this, as long as a large number of people can be mobilized,

This can change the situation in which a few rule the majority.”

Wang Miaoyin breathed a long sigh of relief: "So that's it. I've been doubting it just now. Even if a large number of people can be mobilized, they still have insufficient combat skills and are still a mob. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, tens of thousands or even tens of thousands have been killed countless times.

One hundred thousand peasant rebels were defeated by a handful of well-equipped officers and soldiers, that's it. But if it's true as you said, a farmer can defeat a heavy-armored warrior head-on with a little training, then it is indeed the rule of all and the law of war.

, I have to do it all over again.”

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "What makes the emperors, kings, and nobles abdicate obediently is never the conscience of some people, but when their power can no longer suppress the united power of the majority of the people at the bottom.

Or if the entire country or the entire ethnic group is facing the danger of life and death, and will perish together if it remains unchanged, then changes will be made. We need a group, an ethnic group to work hard as a whole. Only in this way can technology advance and change the current situation.

This situation requires enslaving and oppressing all people to cultivate the land in order to maintain basic survival needs."

Wang Miaoyin nodded: "I understand what you mean. Your system is right. People are lazy and greedy by nature, and no one wants to lose power. But if we do not let go of power if we occupy it like this, it will only make everyone finish together."

, even Mr. Xianggong can see this clearly. While establishing the Beifu Army, he has already made preparations to use you, the fresh blood of the middle and lower classes, to change the decay and decline of the family. However, he

I'm afraid I never dreamed that you, a person from later generations, would be so advanced in thinking. If he could have such a long conversation with you in his lifetime, maybe everything would be different."

Liu Yu said calmly: "I think that maybe this result is the best. After all, he is the leader of the two evil organizations of the Tiandao League and the Mafia, and he is also for the benefit of the Xie family, or maybe

He is a cultivator of his own. He may not necessarily be of the same mind as me when it comes to big issues, and he may even attack me for his own purposes, just like Commander Xuan..."
