The Republic of Newland secretly negotiated with the Liangxia Empire, which made Tigala feel very bad.

After going to the conference room to announce the end of the meeting, Tigala returned to the study and asked the secretary to stay in command of the Western Theater Command, General Chajit, who was promoted not long ago.

In the Vanro Army, Chajit is considered Tigala's confidant.

The reason is also very simple. When Tigala became prime minister, Chajit was still a major army major, and within the following years he rose to major general. Although his performance in the following years was mediocre and he was promoted to lieutenant general before the outbreak of the war, he was promoted again in just a few months. Then, under Tigala's arrangement, he served as commander-in-chief of the Western Battlefield as an army general.

Obviously, this is not a place to be envied.

As mentioned before, the main battlefield is in the northwest, and the western battlefield only plays a connection role, and it is unclear to the three adjacent battlefields.

To put it seriously, the Western battlefield itself is a microcosm of the internal power structure of the Van Roh Army.

Some of the combat troops deployed in the northern defense zone centered on Jaipur are from the northwest battlefield, and senior officers are more or less related to the combat troops in the northwest battlefield. The combat troops deployed in the southern defense zone, especially the combat troops near Udaipur, mainly come from the southern battlefield, and most of the officers and soldiers come from southern provinces, and the officers and soldiers of Mangsui alone account for 30%. The combat troops deployed in Kota mainly rely on the northern battlefield. Not only many officers and soldiers come from the Gangaro Plain, but even supplies are highly dependent on the northern battlefield.

Although almost all the main forces are deployed near Jaipur, that is, the northwestern factions account for the majority, it does not mean that the southern factions and the northern factions can bow their heads. In fact, factional disputes have always been the most serious internal conflicts of the Van Luo Army.

The result is that the order issued by the battlefield command may not be implemented outside Jaipur.

What to say is also the key to Tigala's reluctance to believe in military generals.

For those senior generals from the aristocratic class, the number one purpose is not to win the war, but to gain benefits in the war.

Not only now, but for thousands of years, it has been like this.

In fact, this is also a feature of the Southern Subcontinent.

Whether conquered by the Aryans from the north, or during the reign of the Crip Empire, or even enslaved by the colonists of the Bran Kingdom, the people on this land still divided the high and low status according to their origins, and the nobles who lived in the ruling class were always nobles.

Of course, Tigala is no exception.

The Gambala family is one of the oldest nobles on the southern subcontinent, dating back more than 1,000 years ago, and has always been a core member of the ruling class.

In other words, if tangible benefits can be obtained, those guys who hold the lifeline of the Fanluo Kingdom will not mind losing this war, even if they are ruled by foreign powers like hundreds of years ago. After all, those who suffer will always be the lowest untouchables.

In fact, this is also the key to the fact that the Vanluo State has not achieved industrialization for decades, and has not even found the threshold for industrialization.

The main force that obstructs industrialization comes from the aristocratic class that controls the lifeline of the country, especially the major families that control a large amount of land.

To put it bluntly, by controlling the land, the aristocratic class can exploit other classes, obtain rich income, live a rich life, and use the plundered wealth to build armed forces to protect their own interests. What are the reasons to promote social reform?

To put it another way, if the reform succeeds, it is still the ruling class. If the reform fails, everything may be lost.

Since there is no way to obtain more benefits, there is naturally no need to reform.

The key is that the basis of industrialization is a large number of workers who can participate in large-scale social production.

This means that the quality of the people must be improved and more people can receive education.

The emerging industrial countries, without exception, have completed the industrial revolution that traditional industrial powers have been achieved in just a few decades through the development of education. If the Fanluo Kingdom wants to become an industrial power, it also needs to increase its investment in education.

However, educated workers are not only workers on the production line, but also promoters of social system changes.

Obviously, industrial workers are born to be mortal enemies of the feudal ruling class, and industrial workers will inevitably take action to protect their own interests.

This is why the compulsory education in the Fanluo Kingdom has been carried out for decades and has not been promoted nationwide so far. More than 80% of the citizens are illiterate.

There are not even workers, so how can industrialization start?

If it was the same thing as before, that is, the Kingdom of Bran, it would be a big problem to plunder resources and wealth through colonial rule. After all, before being colonized by the Kingdom of Bran, the southern subcontinent was not unified, and most of the time they were enslaved by foreign tribes, while the various large families still lived well. It did not say that they could not survive because they were enslaved by foreign tribes.

If you want to say, the colonial rule of the Kingdom of Bran brought great benefits to the nobles.

Not to mention anything else, advanced weapons and equipment from the Kingdom of Bran gave the dominant aristocratic class a stronger violent machine, thus gaining an absolute advantage in the struggle of the internal class and completely losing the ability to resist the ruled lower-class untouchables.

In addition, the emergence of a ruler at a higher level has effectively alleviated the internal disputes of the ruling class.

It was during the colonial rule of the Kingdom of Bran that the sphere of influence of the country based on large families stabilized.

Compared with the past few thousand years, the 200-year rule of the Kingdom of Bran was actually the most stable and prosperous period of the Southern Subcontinent.

At least for the dominant nobles, these 200 years have been living in heaven.

Unfortunately, this has become history, and history will never repeat itself.

More than 100 years ago, after the Liangxia Empire first seized the hegemony of Fanyan Ocean, the aristocratic class in the southern subcontinent discovered that this new powerful existence was completely different from the Bran Kingdom. The targets of its plunder were not resources and wealth, but more essential things.

The labor to develop resources and create wealth!

Of course, the rulers of the Turkish state are among them.

The key is that compared with the untouchables at the bottom, the number of rulers is too small to satisfy the appetite of new hegemony.

In addition, the Liangxia Empire did not recognize the rule of the nobles, nor did it think about developing spokespersons, or plundering resources and wealth through the nobles.

Fundamentally speaking, what the Liangxia Empire withdrew from the Southern Subcontinent was not colonial rule, but national liberation movement!

That is, in the following decades, before the outbreak of the First Global War, the influence of the Liangxia Empire made the enlightened nobles of the southern subcontinent realize the importance of national independence, and gave rise to the idea of ​​independent establishment of the country and realizing comprehensive national unity.

The Gambala family was one of the first enlightened nobles to support the national independence movement.

However, enlightened nobles are only a very small number.

The reason is also very simple. With the arrival of the national independence movement, it will inevitably lead to earth-shaking social changes, and the ruling order that the aristocratic class depends on will definitely collapse. Even if the aristocratic class can rely on accumulated wealth, as well as knowledge and culture that are more valuable than wealth, and seize the opportunity of social change, it does not mean that all large families can gain a place in the new ruling class.

In fact, most traditional aristocrats will be eliminated by this great change and become targets of rule.

Obviously, this is the key to the ruling class of the Fanluo Kingdom's unwilling to bow down to the Liangxia Empire.

The core issue is actually very simple.

Looking around the world, only the Fanluo Kingdom, or to be precise, the Southern Subcontinent, has the labor needed to make the Liangxia Empire go to a higher level.

Don’t forget that the Liangxia Empire is still the most populous country in the world.

The huge population size not only brings huge benefits, such as the world's largest industrial strength, unparalleled war potential and super development momentum; it also creates some difficult problems, such as no country can take over the low-end manufacturing industry transferred from the Liangxia Empire through industrial upgrading, let alone provide the market needed to complete industrial upgrading. The result is that the industrial upgrading of the Liangxia Empire has been progressing slowly, and with the development of productivity, the internal contradictions caused by the gap between the rich and the poor have become more and more serious.

Specifically, the Liangxia Empire had both the most cutting-edge high-tech industries and a large number of labor-intensive light textile industries.

There is no doubt that aviation engineers are paid far more than textile workers.

Although the Liangxia authorities eliminated and narrowed the gap between the rich and the poor through taxation, policies and other means, at most they only temporarily alleviated social conflicts and did not completely resolve the contradictions. The key is that the Liangxia authorities' intervention behavior will eventually be paid by the society.

The most obvious impact is that it forces local enterprises to move outward, especially low-paying manufacturing.

To be said, as early as a few years ago, the problem of "industry hollowing out" in the Liangxia Empire had already emerged. It was only after Zhou Yongtao moved into the official residence of the Chief Auxiliary that he began to work on military reform and increased social investment through military construction that the problem of "industry hollowing out" did not become more serious.

Of course, this abnormal state will definitely not be maintained for a long time.

Fundamentally, it is still necessary to accelerate the pace of industrial upgrading.

Then, it is necessary to open up a huge enough overseas market to promote industrial upgrading, and this overseas market must also shoulder the important task of accepting low-end manufacturing industries.

Simply put, there must be enough industrial populations that can participate in large-scale social production.

Obviously, this can only be the Southern Subcontinent.

The key is that in order to control this market more effectively, the only feasible way is to return the Southern Subcontinent to the Turkish era, break it down into several, or even dozens of countries, and then integrate these scattered markets together through a loose military and political alliance.

In fact, this is also the key to the Liangxia Empire's refusal to let Fanluo Kingdom go.

Tigala had a very clear understanding of this, and had long realized that no matter whether it was enlightened or conservative aristocrats, they could not gain a foothold under the rule of the Liangxia Empire, and the Fanluo civilization that had lasted for thousands of years was likely to die.

Don’t forget that the Liangxia Empire is also an ancient civilization with a history of thousands of years, and it has maintained a unified state for most of the time, and its culture has basically not been broken. From the perspective of national culture alone, the Liangxia Empire is the real traditional empire.

It can be imagined that along with capital, industry and technology, there are also cultural and ideological invasions.

What to say is that cultural and ideological invasion has long arrived.

After the Second Global War, under the strong promotion of the Liangxia Empire, Eastern culture had surpassed Western culture and became the mainstream of world culture.

Not to mention anything else, Liang Xiayu replaced Bran after the war on the grounds that "the largest population is used", and became the world's number one common language.

As for popular culture, let alone.

Obviously, this is definitely not a good thing for the ruling class of the Fanluo Kingdom.

The key is that in the Kingdom of Bran colonial rule for more than 200 years, coupled with the inertia of history, the national culture of the Vanluo Kingdom is more inclined to the West. Due to the limitations of objective factors, especially geographical isolation, even if it is on the huge land, the Vanluo Kingdom and the Eastern culture are not very close. In fact, in the past few thousand years, it was the Vanluo Kingdom that influenced Eastern civilization, such as Buddhism originated from the southern subcontinent.

It is precisely because after the Second Southern Subcontinent War, all the Prime Ministers of the Vanluo Kingdom tried their best to form an alliance with the Republic of Newland, rely on foreign aid to fight against the powerful Liangxia Empire, and protect their core interests, especially their hegemony on the Southern Subcontinent.

Unlike the previous prime minister, Tigala was more proactive and faced core issues.

No matter who joins with it, if the Fanluo Kingdom wants to grow and grow, it must take its own development as the foundation.

Then, social reform is necessary.

As far as domestic reform is concerned, Tigala's number one enemy is not the Liangxia Empire, but the conservative elements in China who hold real power and hold high positions.

Among them, senior generals in the army were mainly composed of the army.

Obviously, this is also the key to Tigala's attempt to carry out a bitter plan and bring the Kingdom of Vanluo into the war.

Only a war with the largest scale will allow Tigala to gain the opportunity to go deep into the core of military power, thereby eliminating the main obstacles to reform.

Of course, there is definitely a long way to go when it comes to reforming the country's foundation.

Although through the previous farce, Tigala had solved a large number of senior generals and basically controlled the combat troops in the northwest battlefield, from the overall situation, especially in order to maintain the stability of the domestic situation, Tigala did not aim its finger at the combat troops in the other three battlefields.

The key is that I didn’t have this ability at that time.

What Tigala can control now is actually just the combat troops on the Northwest battlefield.

Even if the main force of the Fan army, especially the main force of the army, is almost all on the northwest battlefield, in terms of the overall situation, the other three battlefields are also very important.

Among them, the western battlefield is the main one, or the western battlefield is now the main one.

Only after controlling the western battlefield can we intervene in the southern battlefield and the northern battlefield!

That's why Tigala reused Chajit.

Although Chajit's family is the number one landlord in Madhya Pradesh and owns tens of millions of acres of land on the south bank of the Gangaro River, their political stance is similar to that of the Gambala family. They all support reform and believe that the country can be developed and strengthened through reform and gained more benefits.

The key is actually the influence of the Chajit family in Madhya Pradesh.

Let him take action, at least gain the support of the northern faction.
Chapter completed!
