1611 The time to start a revolution has come!

As we all know, bureaucrats like to increase taxes the most.

Because they had to add one cent tax, they could collect five cents tax, then exploit four cents layer by layer, and throw one cent to the court to handle the errands.

Emperor Daojun Zhu Houcong should have a very deep understanding of this, so he acknowledged the exploitation of bureaucrats, but only required that the amount of exploitation of bureaucrats could not exceed the share he received.

But even with such a "humble" requirement, bureaucrats often cannot satisfy Emperor Daojun, and at most give a little more, but the big one is still lost under the layers of exploitation by bureaucrats.

In order to ensure taxation issues, Su Yonglin specially established the State Administration of Taxation and Taxmen, a quasi-armed force, and spent a lot of effort on tax issues across the country to safeguard the tax interests of the common people.

For individuals and collectives across the country, the State Administration of Taxation and tax soldiers have great authority. If the other party evades taxes, the State Administration of Taxation can dispatch tax soldiers to arrest them. The judicial department sets up a tax court in the State Administration of Taxation to conduct strict and quick trials on tax issues.

Despite this, during the tax construction period over the years, there were still a large number of individuals and collective tax evasions. Some collective farms also had illegal matters. They were dispatched by the State Administration of Taxation to directly arrest many of the persons in charge and attacked heavily.

Since Su Yonglin took the initiative to pay taxes, the income of Ming officials has also been taxed. Therefore, during the eighth Hongwu rectification movement, officials at the prefecture level also evaded taxes.

For example, the governor of Dengzhou was arrested by tax evasion and tax evasion, and the tax servants of the State Administration of Taxation came directly to the door. The governor was taken away by the tax servants in shackles. Because the amount involved was relatively large, the tax court directly sentenced him to 18 years of labor reform.

The Ming Dynasty was so tightly concerned about tax work that it had sufficient fiscal revenue to support the Ming Dynasty, a hugely consumed system, to do many, many things that were also consumed.

And here, Zou Yana has only one government order.

In order to buy high-quality weapons from Ming Dynasty, you will suffer the people and share the blame. Just collect the money for me.

So the bureaucrats were ecstatic.

Then the bureaucrats in Chameng Kingdom began to operate in a ecstatic way, successfully making the people who could only barely eat, so they could not afford to eat.

Farmers snatched away the seeds and grains, let alone food.

The small businessman could not pay the tax, the store was closed, the goods were snatched, and the people were beaten.

The little handicraft even confiscated the food as taxes.

Fishermen and others who rely on water to eat water will not be allowed to go into the water if they do not pay taxes. If you starve to death, you will not be qualified to eat if you do not pay taxes.

From the initial worry and fear to the resentment behind, and then to the anger behind, protests against tax increases broke out in Vijay, the capital of Chameng Kingdom.

At the beginning, the protests were quite normal. Everyone gathered together to keep warm, refused to pay taxes to the bureaucrats, and claimed to sue Zou Yana, asking him not to continue to increase taxes.

Of course, the bureaucrats would not let these "troubled people" tell Zou Yana the whole story. After all, if Zou Yana knew that the tax increase required by the bureaucrats and the tax increase required by the bureaucrats were almost not the same thing, it would probably not be very friendly to these bureaucrats.

I will get one point, you will get four points?

No sucker is like this!

The bureaucrats intimidate the people, let them pay taxes honestly, and threaten them to mobilize the army to deal with them. The people have no way out and are not afraid of this.

The bureaucrats became more and more frightened and felt that they could not let the situation go on, so they decided to dispatch some troops to use violent means to disperse these "troubled people" and safeguard their own interests.

The army immediately dispatched, causing a tragedy on the streets of Vijay. Many people were not prepared and were beaten badly by the army. Then the soldiers took advantage of the situation and took it a snatch.

Unexpectedly, this traditional skill caused even greater chaos.

Forget it, even if people die, they will still have to eat the worst. The cruelest thing in the world is this. Some people who did not participate in the protest were also angry. Under the threat of losing their lips and cold teeth, facing the soldiers who rushed to the door, they were angry.

As a result, a larger riot broke out in the entire city of Vijay. The angry people united to beat the lonely soldiers and beat them to death, killing many people, and gradually gaining the upper hand.

There were even more angry people who attacked the government and killed many corrupt officials.

The bureaucrats panicked and found that the matter was out of control, so they could only rely on Zou Yana, who had taken a big bite in this matter, and sent him the highest commander and Ba of the new army to call on him to dispatch the legendary elite new army to dispatch.

Heba was also very panicked.

He dared not disobey Zou Yana. Now Zou Yana doesn't know about this matter yet and is still kept in the dark. However, once the matter really gets into trouble and goes to the palace, Zou Yana learns that once he orders a strict investigation, he will not be able to escape from the relationship.

That's not going to die?

In fear, Heba quickly found Chaquan and ordered him to immediately dispatch the new army to suppress the people and restore peace in the city of Vijay.

At this moment, a fierce game was also taking place within the new army.

In fact, in the early days when the public protests against taxation incidents fermented, the revolutionaries in the Chameng Revival Society branch that had been developing for a period of time could not sit still.

They hid their identities and entered the public, investigated the actual situation, witnessed the situation of corrupt officials increasing their persecution of the people at all levels, and the people's difficult life.

After this incident was spread internally, the trend of moderate reform ideas in the Revival Society of Chameng Kingdom was curbed.

After the bureaucrats mobilized the army to start killing the people and looting the property of the people, Cha Quan made a quick decision to define the Zou Yana regime, believing that this was a reactionary bastard regime that was completely hopelessly reacted.

Anyone who continues to hold reform ideas and believes that the Zou Yana regime has the possibility of reform and saving it is the enemy of the revolutionary, and immediately fired and draws a clear line with him.

Cha Quan's suggestion was supported by most people, and a small number of moderate reformists who were still unwilling to let go did not dare to object in the face of the general trend, so they could only bow their heads and remain silent.

Then, Cha Quan decided to do something, such as sending people to bring weapons into the civilians, organizing the people to rise up and resist the tax officials and the army, and they wanted to be the leaders, inspiring the people to rise up and fight desperately against the reactionary forces.

And Cha Quan also decided to take advantage of this chaotic opportunity to concentrate the elite main forces of the new army to launch a sneak attack, attack the palace, take down Zou Yana, control all the powerful bureaucrats, control the entire city of Vijay, and establish a revolutionary provisional government.

"The time has come to launch a revolution! The reactionary bastards are wantonly humiliating the people, hurting their bodies, and embezzling their flesh and blood. The people are wailing, and they are dying! As revolutionaries, can we sit back and ignore them?"
