Looking at the unconscious Liu Zishan, Li Xiao was very sad.

No wonder people say that it is easy to conquer the world immediately, but difficult to rule the world immediately.

The world cannot be governed by a group of soldiers. They have experienced too much cruelty and too much life and death. Therefore, they cherish life very much!

I always think that since so many people have died, I should enjoy the rest of my life while I am still alive.

It is actually a very good virtue to live without ceasing to fight. It is a pity that virtue is called because it is rare.

"You are all people who have endured hardship. I don't need to tell you what your life was like before you became a soldier. I don't need to tell you how you were bullied by those officials back then.

Now that you are also officials, think about how your actions now are different from those officials back then who ate people without spitting out their bones.

You have all seen what happened to the Donglin Party people. Could it be that another group of people are required to hold guns and kick you out of your official positions, and then sit on your official chairs? And then, your

The fate will be the same as those of the Donglin Party.

Do you want that end? If you do, I will satisfy you now. Say it! Which of you wants it?" Li Xiao shouted sharply, and the auditorium filled with more than 800 officers fell silent.

"Give moldy grain to the peasants. The grain only costs a few dollars. You are all greedy. A monthly salary of twenty silver coins is enough for an ordinary farmer's family to earn a year's income.

Not satisfied yet!

Drink Maotai and eat seafood.

Back on Changxing Island, when everyone was vomiting from eating seafood and clamoring for pork, did you all forget?

Now they have all been picked up, and they have all been eaten and turned into bastards who have brought disaster to the country and the people. I, Li Xiao, tell you that the Liao army conquered the world to make the people of the Ming Dynasty live a good life, and for our descendants to stand at the top of the nations of the world.

It’s not for you people to sit on top of people’s heads and shit.

These are the eight latest regulations promulgated by the imperial court. Take a good look at it when you go back and learn from it. If you don’t understand, please ask an expert. I, Li Xiao, put these words first. Who the hell is guilty? Don’t blame me, Li Xiao.

I don’t miss the original friendship!

Ao Canghai! Read it!" Li Xiao shouted, and Ao Ye immediately stood up.

Holding a few pieces of paper in his hand, he glanced at the generals and officers below.

"Eight Rules of the Imperial Court!

First, we need to improve surveys and research, and go to the grassroots level to get an in-depth understanding of the real situation...!"

As Ao Canghai recited, the people below did not dare to breathe as they listened. The auditorium echoed with the roar of Ao Canghai's broken gong voice!

Early the next morning, the headlines of major newspapers in the capital all published the eight regulations. The reporting mailbox was also marked. Anyone who found clues about corruption could report it with or without a signature.

Li Xiao knows that many people don't actually hate corrupt officials. If you stop a few people on the street and ask them if they would be corrupt if you were an official.

Nine times out of ten, you will say that I will definitely be greedy. If you meet someone who is upright and upright, he is either a rare moral person, or there is something wrong with this guy's head.

Besides, corruption and bribery are all done by people who sneak into the village to shoot. There are not many idiots who accept bribes in court.

Since ancient times, this thing has been a matter below the table and cannot be put on the table at all. Even Wei Zhongxian, who was rampant in lawlessness back then, more or less covered it up.

Since the common people couldn't see it, they could only mutter in private.

What ordinary people are dissatisfied about is actually their privileges!

Official carriages can travel on high-speed official roads without charging any fees. Private vehicles have to pay a lot of tolls.

When officials go to inspect a place, Jinyiwei often closes the road beforehand, and some places have to be cleared. Zhang Huangyan once went to Bianyifang Supermarket and met a pork seller.

Zhang Huangyan asked the pork seller: "How is your business? How many kilograms of pork were sold today?"

The pork seller answered honestly: "It's usually very good, but it's not open today."

Zhang Huangyan was a little puzzled: "Why isn't it open?"

"You are here today. The police have sealed the supermarket so that no one can come in." The pork seller almost choked Zhang Huangyan to death.

There was no other way, so Zhang Huangyan could only take out a silver coin and said, "I'm delaying you from selling meat. I'll weigh you two kilograms to give you a chance."

"Not for sale!"

"Not selling?" Zhang Huangyan's eyes almost dropped, and the accompanying officials were very reluctant to strangle this bastard to death.

"It's not that I won't sell you, it's because when you come, the officials put away the meat cleaver. There is no way to cut the meat!"

As for those who hold banners, lay out red carpets, and place flowers and plants along the street to please the superiors, they are everywhere.

In the canteen opened by the government, ten copper brothers can eat a lot of fish and meat. It is not open to the public, and the chicken, duck, fish and meat thrown away every day become swill and end up in the pig's belly.

There was also a case where pigs were drunk to death due to swill in the cafeteria.

The luxury carriages that can be seen on the streets are basically the cars of officials. There is even a jingle among the people that eating a cow in one meal will have a building underneath it.

Not only the carriages are awesome, but the number plates of the carriages are also awesome. They are either consecutive numbers or special numbers. The most awesome ones are numbers like No. 1 and No. 2. These carriages are very popular on the streets, even if they are pulled by

The horses pooped their manure all over the ground, and no official dared to take care of it.

It would be a big deal if a high-ranking official went to other places. Local enterprises, no matter how heavy their production tasks were, would still have to organize people to greet them. If they were going to the Japanese country of Korea, it would be even more serious.

The local Ming expatriates and people from the Ming Dynasty had to go and greet him. Some people even came up with the bad idea of ​​hiring people to curry favor with Shangguan, and spread the joke abroad, making Koreans and Japanese people chuckle.

Every local newspaper has become the local official's personal diary. What he did every day, who he met, and what he talked about were all clearly written in them.

People in many places no longer read newspapers that are only about bragging. The biggest role of local newspapers is to appear in toilets as toilet paper.

All these are actually manifestations of privilege.

These eight regulations of Li Xiao are specifically designed to deal with privileges. It is very important to prevent ordinary people from seeing these privileged behaviors that can be seen.

Of course, corruption cannot be forgotten.

But this kind of thing must be done with caution. From the beginning, Li Xiao planned to arrest all the officials to vent their anger on the people.

The reason is very simple. Officials are the basic tool to maintain rule. Li Xiao is currently suffering from not having enough officials. Those officials are important cornerstones of ruling the country. The most important thing is that these officials are absolutely loyal to Li Xiao. Only fools can be arrogant.

The whistling self-destructive foundation.

But it is still important to pull out a few chickens and scare the restless monkeys.

For example, when an official in charge of a coal mine was found out, the coal mine owners gave him a villa. The cabinets, under the bed, and large and small wardrobes were all filled with silver coins.

Money counting experts from more than a dozen banks spent a full eight hours counting everything.

But the director was timid and didn't dare to spend a penny of the money. When he was caught by the people from the Control Yuan, he was still eating noodles with garlic.

There was also a water affairs official in a small city who had hundreds of kilograms of gold found in his home.

Li Xiao did not defend any of the shocking things, and published them all in detail in the newspaper. For a time, the circulation of the newspaper continued to increase. This made the literati in the newspaper office smile with joy, and their monthly bonuses were countless.

small amount.

These are all within Li Xiao's control. Looking at the chickens caught from various places, Li Xiao is helpless. He didn't expect that ten years of indulgence would lead to so many shocking incidents.

As a large number of officials became unlucky, including many high-ranking officials and dignitaries, the scope of arrests began to narrow significantly.

"The main ones we want to arrest are those who still do not repent and commit crimes even after eight bans were issued. Don't catch them all!" Li Xiao ordered Xiao Zhan at the work desk.

"promise!"

"It's just..., things from the past...!"

"As long as he is not a major treacherous person and the people are extremely angry, a small punishment or a big warning is enough. We cannot arrest all the officials. If the officials are gone, who will take over the management of the place on behalf of the court?"

"No! I understand." Xiao Zhan was brought out by Zhang Huangyan. In the past few years, he has gradually matured in controlling the Supervisory Council. Now, he is already a sharp knife in Li Xiao's hand.

In just two months, a large number of officials were killed, truly staining their heads red with human blood.

While vigorously fighting corruption, Li Xiao received another gift from Jinzhou Electronics Research Institute.

It's this kind of thing. Sound can be transmitted through radio waves. Even if you speak thousands of miles away, as long as you have such a receiving device, you can receive your speaking voice, and even your tone will not be changed.

"Isn't this just Shunfeng Er?" Zhang Huangyan looked at this thing that was the size of a full-length mirror in surprise. Listening to Xu Erjue's explanation, he was so surprised that his jaw dropped to the ground.

Li Xiao curled his lips, something small enough to fit in his pocket now seemed to be taller than him.

Microphones and speakers have been around for a long time, and the British scientific genius named Tesla also invented a radio station. After a year of exploration, Jinzhou Electronics Research Institute finally combined the two things.

When Xu Ermo saw Li Xiao holding his hands behind his back and not speaking, he turned on the switch.

A male voice was saying something unknown in English. He was mumbling as if he was talking in his sleep!

"This is Mr. Tesla from the UK. He is greeting you in Jinzhou." Xu Erjue's old face turned red.

Although Li Xiao knew that the guy was not saying hello to him at all, he still nodded. That's it, the world's first computer was developed and filled five houses.

Now, in front of me, there is only a radio as tall as a person, which can already surprise me.

"Okay! This thing is great. As long as we have this thing in the future, what we say in the capital will be spread throughout China, and even to the Western Regions.

At the same time, events in the Western Regions can be reported back to us as soon as possible. This is extremely beneficial to the transmission of news." New things must first be affirmed.

"No! Thank you very much, Marshal. If you make some improvements, it will almost be ready for mass production." Xu Erjue and Xu Ermo immediately saluted and thanked them.

"There is still room for miniaturization of this thing, but try to make it smaller. Also, how about the tank." What Li Xiao was thinking about was not a large radio.

But a tank that can reliably fight in the field!

War has fully entered the era of firearms. Judging from the last European War, linear tactics have been widely used. Both sides of the war dug trenches and stretched barbed wire.

Each trench is filled with various machine guns. Behind the battle line, there are artillery emplacements composed of artillery pieces of various calibers.
