Tirumala Deva Raya, this is the name of the three-year-old new king.
Deva is the surname of the founding monarch, the troubled Hindu prince mentioned above. Raya is the surname of the usurper. Because this person married a princess, he added "Deva" before his surname, thus obtaining the legal inheritance rights of the country.
.
This dynasty was founded only 40 years ago, and it was obtained by usurping the throne. It is understandable why all the members are only twenty-five.
The two or five boys were fired, and then it was the turn of the king's supporters.
A group of these supporters had already been killed by powerful ministers. Ning Botao selected the most influential among them and wiped out another group of them. All the male members of the family were killed, and the female members of the family were assigned to soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.
The royal city has a population of more than half a million, and must rely on the old system for governance, otherwise it will not even understand the language.
The surviving supporters of the king were promoted one after another to manage civil affairs.
Thousands of cavalry surrendered, some were promoted, and some were given land, but all were converted into infantry. Their horses were forcibly handed over to Ming soldiers, and Ning Botao planned to train the cavalry troops himself.
At this time, the Ming Dynasty Navy had occupied two-thirds of the country, but had no choice to continue the Northern Expedition.
Because the rainy season is coming soon.
Ning Botao sent an envoy to order King Qin's main force to surrender immediately in the name of the new king.
Tens of thousands of elite troops received the news on the way, and they instantly became at a loss. The generals asked the envoys for news. Some learned that their families had been wiped out, and immediately shouted that they would not surrender. Some heard that their own clansmen had been wiped out.
After becoming a high official, I was urged to go back quickly to get promoted and make a fortune.
The commander of this army, Navisa, happened to be a member of the exterminated tribe.
He summoned the generals to discuss the plan, and suddenly all the swordsmen and axes came out to kill all the surrendering faction. However, this guy did not dare to go back. Once the army in the royal city was bound to lose control, even if the capital was taken back, he would be killed alone.
Other families seize power.
So, he returned to the original route and vowed to fight for the Northern Expedition.
The Bahmani Sultanate in the north was made a vassal state by the previous hero. Later, the country's name was simply canceled and renamed Golconda. Freedom of religious belief was enforced, and the king was no longer allowed to call himself sultan.
After the death of the heroic lord, the king in the north was again called sultan and sent out all his troops to conquer.
As soon as the elite army left, the powerful officials began to fight for power, and finally it turned out like this.
In desperation, the army commander Navisa led his troops to plunder and plunder tens of thousands of civilians along the way, and entered the Golconda Kingdom, which was also known as Sudan. After two months of fierce fighting, the Golconda Kingdom was declared to be destroyed. The commander actually himself
He became king and led his troops to convert to Green Religion and became Sultan.
Ning Botao has no time to care about things in the north, he is rewarding the army!
Twelve thousand soldiers affiliated with the Tianzhu Cotton Association obtained land in the basin plain near the royal city and assigned a white woman as their wife. What if there are not enough white women? Just kill a group of high castes. Not only will there be women, but also
Got a lot of land.
The three thousand Ming navy masters were all supposed to receive land, but their families were in Nanyang and they had to go back after the rainy season, so all the land was converted into gold and silver.
By then, only the 12,000 troops of the Tianzhu Cotton Association were left, which was obviously not enough to rule by force.
Then transform the untouchables!
More than 30,000 untouchables accompanying the army were gathered outside the city. They were all as black as African brothers.
Ning Botao rode among these untouchables, followed by several leading parties. He said something, and the leading party translated: "I have received the favor of Vishnu and I am here to liberate you. You will have reincarnations in the future."
rights. I will give each of you land and caste. Now, all officers, stand up!"
More than three hundred untouchable officers hurried to the front.
Ning Botao drew out his embroidered spring knife, pointed to the sky and said: "Today, I give you a surname in the name of Vishnu. From now on, you will all have the surname 'Ning', you can be an officer, and you should be of the Vaishya race!"
"
Just fooling around and making up Indian surnames.
The four major castes in India can be briefly described as follows -
Brahmins, white nobles, can learn and teach the Vedas, preside over sacrifices, can give and receive donations, and are mainly in charge of religious affairs.
Kshatriyas, white nobles, can study the Vedas, perform sacrifices and give alms, and are mainly in charge of secular power.
Vaishyas, white commoners, can study the Vedas, perform sacrifices, and give alms, and are mainly engaged in commerce, agriculture, industry, and animal husbandry.
Shudras, civilians of color, are mainly engaged in service industry, handicraft industry, agriculture and animal husbandry (rarely).
Untouchables, people without caste, untouchable.
In addition, the Sudra class can be subdivided into thousands of castes, which are distinguished by the work they do. For example, a shoemaker has the meaning of shoemaker in his surname. If nothing else, he will be a shoemaker for generations.
Strictly speaking, it is also a small caste.
It is somewhat similar to the household registration system of the Ming Dynasty. Each caste class is assigned jobs very tightly. Except for the untouchables, everyone is a defender of the caste system. They are afraid that the caste system will collapse and the same class or lower class will rob them.
work.
In principle, if upper castes are poor, they can take jobs of lower castes, but they will inevitably experience social death.
No matter how wealthy the lower castes are, they are not allowed to work in the upper castes. If there is any violation, the king will deprive them of their property and banish them immediately. At the same time, the king has the right to promote someone's caste, but caste promotion only exists among white people.
Ning Botao gave these untouchables a caste. First, they had to give them a surname, and then they had to give them jobs. Otherwise, they would have done nothing.
Not to mention untouchables, even Sudras were not allowed to be officers. Without an established surname, Ning Botao simply gave these untouchable officers the surname "Ning".
From now on, only low-caste or untouchable people with the surname Ning can overcome the color barrier and become military officers.
Ning Potao then said to the untouchable soldiers: "I give you a surname in the name of Vishnu. From now on, you will all have the surname 'Tao', you can be soldiers, and you should be of the Sudra race!"
More than 30,000 untouchables knelt down and worshiped. They finally had surnames. They were not worthy of surnames before.
Ning Botao said: "You can only follow me to fight. Once I leave here, you will not be tolerated by the four major castes, and you will become untouchables again! Now, be loyal to me."
More than 30,000 untouchables knelt down again and swore allegiance in various languages.
These are the most sincere oaths, and they must go all the way to the dark side. Once the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are driven away, they will not only lose their land, their jobs, but even their surnames.
Ning Botao called more than ten leading parties, all of whom were businessmen from the Vaishya class.
Ning Botao pointed to the sky with his embroidered spring knife: "I give you a surname in the name of Vishnu. From now on, you will all be named 'followers', you can be ministers and tax collectors, and you will be Kshatriyas."
!”
These guys are all southeastern coastal businessmen. They have enough money, but they have been white commoners for generations. It is harder to become a noble than to win a five million jackpot.
White civilian businessmen are the core of Ningbotao's rule. Upgrade them to Kshatriyas and give them the right to serve as officials. These leading parties will become the most loyal lackeys. Power is addictive, and they become officials.
After that, he would rather die than give up, and he was completely intolerable to other high castes.
More than a dozen white civilian businessmen suddenly became Kshatriyas from Vaishyas. The massacre of Ningbotao started again, and it was the nobles who took the initiative to kill them.
The cause of the massacre was the overthrow of caste by more than 30,000 untouchables. When the news spread, everyone became dissatisfied.
Some guys took the opportunity to join forces, the purpose was not to drive Ning Botao away, but to force Ning Botao to cancel his untouchable caste.
Ning Botao took the opportunity to raise his butcher knife, killed all the king's supporters, and conferred the title of aristocratic ministers on those die-hard businessmen. Then he selected wealthy white businessmen on the spot, promoted hundreds of businessmen to Kshatriyas, and granted them all the titles of Kshatriyas.
He was given the surname "Follower" and then went to work as a local civil affairs official.
Anyone who refuses to obey will be killed!
Possessing absolute force can break the bonds of caste. For example, in history, there was a Vaishya officer (also a Hindu leader) named Himu who rebelled and defeated the Mughal Dynasty. After becoming the king, he promoted his own caste and called himself "Superman".
King of Japan".
Untouchables also want to live a normal life. Two hundred years ago, almost all of the Indian subcontinent was greened because a large number of untouchables joined the green religion to get rid of the previous life of being unable to live.
The place occupied by Ningbotao is the only remaining Hindu country in India today, and it has long been surrounded by green religious countries.
Killing the nobles, turning businessmen into officials, and untouchables into soldiers, Ning Botao temporarily controlled the territory.
Next, there was a series of rebellions. The local nobles were dissatisfied with the merchant officials. Most of the first batch of merchant officials sent out were killed by the local nobles.
One thousand Ming soldiers and 30,000 pariah soldiers were left to guard the royal city.
The remaining 14,000 soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were divided into fourteen groups, led by the second group of merchants and officials, and went to various places to suppress the rebellion of the small nobles. Blood flowed wherever they passed. All the male rebel nobles were killed, and the women were kept for immigrants.
Wife, take away their property and land by the way!
The situation may seem serious, but in fact there is nothing to fear.
This is because the main population of Hindu society is Sudras who are engaged in handicrafts and service industries. The castes promoted by Ningbotao only take the jobs of officials and soldiers, and do not even infringe upon the Brahmins who are in charge of religion.
As long as you don't take away these people's jobs and you have a butcher's knife in your hand, you can raise your caste in whatever way you want.
If you win over a small group, attack a small group, and ignore the majority of people, most people will just choose to watch from the other side.
This routine was summed up by the Ming Dynasty Navy over many years. The Ceylon Island, Champa Kingdom and other areas where they sent troops before were also dominated by Hindus, and they knew very well what these Hindus thought.
Only the Western colonists who came from afar were confused by the various castes and did not know who to target. Although they finally figured it out, they were too lazy to change it because the Indian colonial management system had already been established.
