Belmode was also studying and thinking, and finally came to the conclusion that the island country did not have the soil for rebellion. No matter how they rebelled, the pattern of dividing the cake could not be changed. This was determined by the model of the island country, the pattern of how others divided the cake.
It has been tested for thousands of years, just a group of landowners snatching it away.
As for culture, they have learned a lot about mainland culture, but the essence has not changed. It has always been a struggle between nobles and nobles, which is the feudal system.
In fact, we cannot just say that the island country has a feudal system. There are more than 200 countries on the earth, and only one country has truly completed the great unification. The other countries have feudal systems, and the local governments are superior to the central government, rather than the central government directly controlling all local governments.
Become a direct territory.
The county system has been implemented for two thousand years, which is unmatched by other countries. It is not easy to integrate all the land in a country.
The island country has a feudal system, so even if you rebel, it will be difficult to break through. Unless you really kill all the nobles and landowners, but this will require killing a lot of people, and even eight million is considered a small number.
Therefore, Bermod believed that stealing the country from an island country would mean at most becoming a great nobleman. Just like Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu during the Warring States Period.
They can only be regarded as representatives of the Chinese people and the aristocratic leaders of the island country, but they are not the masters of a country. This is just like how King Wu of Zhou and his allies defeated the Yin Shang. The Zhou people had allies and enemies around them, and the Zhou people had to fight against them.
All allies and enemies must be digested. But this is not a simple matter.
A thief can become an alliance leader, but cannot become an emperor.
"It seems that you are indeed studying." Dulan was very happy to hear Belmod's justified refusal. Sure enough, learning makes people progress.
"Of course I am studying and reading history, and I realize that feudalism is the choice of many countries. Ancient Rome tried to break feudalism, but failed in the end. So it is the normal state of the country to find an emperor and then form alliances with local princes.
Even if we rebel, the most we can do is become the leader of the vassal alliance. I thought about it many times and finally came to this conclusion."
"Your conclusion is correct, but it is not impossible. As long as all eight million landowners are killed and the imperial examination system is completely used, it is not impossible to solve it." Dulan said that feudalism can be solved, as long as you dare to kill people.
Then just graft the mainland's imperial system on it.
"Do you like science fiction works?" Dulan asked abruptly.
Belmode felt that sooner or later she would go crazy because the other party would always change the topic suddenly. "What do you mean?" Her train of thought could never keep up with Duran's.
"If you like science fiction works, especially Western science fiction works, you will find that many powerful cosmic forces are imperial systems. Why is this so? It is because the West is still a feudal system, and in their minds they actually have both good and bad ideas about the imperial system.
A certain understanding. After all, ancient Rome tried an imperial system. The most powerful era of ancient Rome was an imperial system. However, when it declined, the emperors of the imperial system would protect themselves first and then the empire. This made Western countries very attached to the imperial system.
fear."
Belmode thought of Nero, as a famous tyrant in the West, who was a negative example of the ancient Roman empire.

"Western countries are very aware of the advantages of the imperial system, which is that decrees can be implemented faster and national power can be maximized. But they believe that as long as the emperor is unjust, it will be a disaster. So they resist the imperial system, but they have to admit that the imperial system can make a
Countries become powerful." Duran said: "Science fiction works prove that these countries cannot get out of feudalism."
Bermod thought that asset capitalization was just a means for the princes, just like Guan Zhong's Guan Shanhai. Guan Zhong could Guan Shanhai, Zhao, Chu and Qin could all learn from it. The princes defeated the king through asset capitalization, allowing the nobles to have
There was a new way of forming alliances, but without a king, feudalism would still be feudalism.
In the era of kings, what was enfeoffed was territory. In capitalism, what was enfeoffed was capital. Big capital is the princes of capital. Of course, the enfeoffment of capital is not over yet, and it still guards a fig leaf called the country.
Therefore, the islanders are very afraid of the eight million ghosts and gods, while Westerners are very afraid of big capital and large financial groups. The root cause is the fear of feudal nobles.
"You mean we are rebelling and the way to break feudalism is to become emperor?" Belmode asked, does Duran want to be emperor?
If we really develop according to the historical context of feudalism and imperialism, if we want to break feudalism, we cannot rely on capitalization of assets, but on imperialism.
"Yes, the emperor is actually the inevitable direction for the development of the feudal system. It's just that the emperors of ancient Rome have never been able to break through the shackles of the first citizen and will always evolve into tyrants." The emperors of ancient Rome always formed an alliance between the citizens and the nobility.
, it is impossible to turn nobles, citizens, and free people into their own subjects.
The Central Plains did a good job in this regard. Although the emperors in the Han Dynasty formed an alliance with the nobility, they also tried to select talents from the people through the civil service system. They also treated citizens and free people equally and governed the world with filial piety. Regardless of whether they were aristocrats,
Citizens and free people, everyone has parents, and everyone can practice filial piety and integrity. Of course, free people will definitely suffer when it comes to practice, but in general, filial piety does not distinguish between classes.
Ancient Rome only had a monotheistic religion. Although the nobility, citizens, and free people were united within religion, the problem was that those who did not believe in religion could not be unified. You could not be a Roman without believing in religion. Religion certainly did not have such universal value as filial piety.
From then on, the emperors of the Central Plains have been working hard in the direction of integration. Of course, between protecting themselves and protecting the country, the emperor will always protect himself first and become a coward. But every time there is a change of dynasty, or even a foreign invasion, as long as the emperor ascends the throne
, they will all continue the integration started by the Han Dynasty, that is, Sinicization.
The emperor would select citizens and free people to suppress the nobility. Of course, this citizen may be a relative of the emperor's wife, and this free citizen may be a castrated eunuch, or an official selected through the imperial examination. The emperor's only goal is to eliminate the local area
All the nobles and landowners in the empire turned the land in the country into the direct territory of the emperor, who wanted to directly manage all the land.
The whole world belongs to the emperor's own family, and the officials who manage the country are domestic slaves. This was almost achieved in the Qing Dynasty. But after it was achieved, the emperor and the whole world were directly opposed.
If there are landlords, then the people will always be afraid of the landlords. Island countries are afraid of eight million ghosts and gods. The West is afraid of big capital and big conglomerates because there is a direct conflict of interest between landlords and people.

When the landlords are eliminated and all the land becomes the private property of the emperor, then the evil done by the landlords will be the evil done by the emperor, which means that the emperor and the people are in direct conflict. Therefore, the hatred of the landlords will be directly transferred to the emperor.
The emperor's territory, he has to bear all the responsibilities.
In short, the emperor aims to become the largest landowner, constantly devouring nobles and landowners, not only physically, but also culturally. From recognizing the legitimacy of the emperor, to the emperor dividing the nobles step by step, and then through selection step by step
Talents were shuffled, the control of the nobles was disrupted, and the annexation of the country's land was finally achieved.
In the West, because the aristocrats mastered the method of asset capitalization, they quickly expanded the wealth of the aristocracy and defeated the emperor. Without the emperor, the aristocrats everywhere will definitely continue to enfeoff. The country has also become a necessary evil needed for the aristocracy to negotiate.
, the nobles wish they didn’t have a country so that they wouldn’t have to pay taxes. Unfortunately, this is unrealistic. The nobles also know that a country is necessary, because without a country, there would be no place for communication between nobles and nobles.
It can be seen that the suppression of merchants in the Central Plains was beneficial to the emperor. The emperor knew very well that asset capitalization could make people richer than the country. The emperor did not like this, so the emphasis on agriculture, suppression of business, and isolation of the country actually suppressed the rise of local capital.
