Chapter 770: twenty five. Imperial 4600 years (4)

For the liberals, I am afraid that there is no more country that Biarfheim makes them entangled with. ｀Top｀Point｀Fiction｀.2wx.om
Compared with the rigid system of human society, the unbearable stereotypes and habits, the suffocating control of religious thought. Alfheim is almost a heavenly place. Here, citizens are allowed to express their opinions on the current affairs, they are allowed to comment on the government, and they can even publicly express their dissatisfaction with the governor. These are unimaginable in human and orc countries. However, the above "freedom" is limited to the first to third races. Although "ruled races" such as orcs and humans are allowed to appeal through the judicial process, they are generally subject to state control. Any anti-system and anti-society All the comments will attract sensitive sniffers, those who are light will be detained or served in hard labor, and those who are serious will be "relocated".
Not only racial issues, but also other aspects, such as the Constitution explicitly prohibits soldiers from doing politics, but the governor himself is the highest commander of the army; advocates to change the world, to establish a more equal new order, but this new order requires bayonet and artillery It is enforced; it is said to be an enlightened society, but special agent organizations such as Stasi are everywhere. The major issues are nominally reviewed and agreed by the council. In fact, they are all taken by the consul...
Regardless of any standard, this is a fascist dictatorship under the guise of a "Republic" and should be spurned by all citizens with conscience and wisdom. It can be said that the most civilized and progressive Alfheim in the world not only accepted this kind of government, but also from top to bottom, including the vast majority of all races and classes, generally recognized this system. The left-wing people called the liberals were stunned.
"Gentlemen. We must admit that a democratic society can coexist with the political system under certain conditions."
Rudolf Ludwig Karl Filsau took off his eyes, his calm face spit out helpless words, and the professors and students in the club showed sad expressions.
This is the salon of the Alfheim State University, whether professors, colleges, or civilians passing by can speak freely here, whether they are academic discussions or scams, they can express their opinions. Over time, this became the home base for leftist activities led by liberals.
Most of the leftists in Yalfheim are made up of intellectuals, including scholars, students, doctors, lawyers, etc. They have received a good education. Mostly belong to the middle class. There are contradictions with certain policies of the authorities, such as imperialism, military priority, expansionism, racial differentiation, monopoly chaebolism, etc., and there are many criticisms of the relevant policies in the publications that you publish. There is a certain reputation among the people, but it has not been able to overwhelm conservatives and radicals, nor is it the mainstream voice of Yalfheim.
There are many factors contributing to this situation. The most important of course is the balancing technique of the consul. By maintaining a balance between the forces of all parties. The consul can easily mediate and mediate, so as to promote the smooth running of state affairs. Any party who wants to break this balance will learn the adult's wrist. Secondly, the overall political atmosphere of Yalfheim tends to be conservative. The liberals, who expected to develop members among the vast number of workers, suddenly discovered that even without the interference of national policies and official workers’ organizations. In the face of the national pride and patriotism of the broad masses, the liberal view also seems a bit outdated. Finally, for those who have experienced hardships and lived a happy life under the guidance of the ruling officer, letting them oppose a "reasonable gentleman" who has not committed a mistake has inherent moral problems, and even freedom. There are conflicts at the core of the school.
The core value of democracy is equality. Its pursuit of homogeneity in terms of material conditions and spiritual fashion does not necessarily lead to freedom. Freedom, as a morality with a stronger public nature, inherently sets the threshold for those who pursue it-take the talented and the stubborn as an example, the former must have more advantages in obtaining and comprehending freedom; wealthy People do not have to worry about their clothes and food, and they don’t have to work hard all day long. Naturally they have more leisure time to think and learn. They are undoubtedly more likely to be free than hardworking workers. Knowledge and wealth can never be redistributed in accordance with the principle of absolute equality.
In this way, people can enjoy the benefits of equality as long as they are alive, but it takes a lot of effort and hopes for various internal and external factors to achieve freedom, and freedom is easily judged as unimportant. In the most extreme case, after overthrowing the old system of inequality, the majority of the public whose knowledge level and economic status are still at a disadvantage will continue to be hostile to the minority intellectual and wealthy classes. If there is a master who is willing to satisfy the majority of the public When equality is required, the people will happily abandon freedom and sing praises to the rulers who give them a sense of stability and happiness in order to enjoy the life of stability and happiness.
There have been too many such things in the history of the earth. The French Revolution, the Second French Empire, the Russian Revolution, the chaos in the Weimar Republic, the establishment of the Third Reich, various color revolutions... this has almost become a habit Whenever society is caught in a political and economic dilemma, people will shout vocal words like "democracy", "freedom" and so on to start a violent revolution, and then induce various chaos and cleansing until a certain wise and powerful power appears, The people are grateful for the chanting hymns, and live a happy and healthy new life from now on...
The current situation in Yalfheim is roughly the same. This shadow country was planned by the consul, and it can be established and grow to the point where it is today. And more importantly, Li Lin succeeded in making the elves live a far richer life than in the past. Although the "ruled nation" is not necessarily happy, the standard of living is much stronger than in the past. For most people, since Li Lin can unify a decentralized tribal government that is threatened by the surroundings, is extremely backward and poor, and is on the verge of destruction, leading to prosperity and independence, whether it is exercising power or enjoying luxurious treatment is reasonable. . What's more, Li Linsu is known for his high work intensity and simple life style. He wants to attack a leader who takes work as entertainment, so far there is no personal housing leader, and it is still a bit difficult to destroy his prestige.
The popular belief in the ruling officials and the numbness of democracy have left the left winged, but they are more concerned about it.
In nominal and theoretical terms. Yalfheim is a republican country. Legislation and decisions are made by the parliament. The ruling officer plays the role of coordinator of sorting out relations between departments and the executor of urging the decree. It is no different from the chief executive of a large company. It is a senior wage earner. The actual situation is just the opposite. It is the ruling officer who really plans the national government and sets the directives and guidelines. The council is only a rubber stamp and is only responsible for passing bills. At most, it creates a little trouble, and cannot shake Li Lin's authority. This is still true of the council, not to mention the political factions. Although there is no party ban. The way the government implements its policies can be criticized. It is even possible to question the policy itself, but it is never allowed to doubt the basic principles of the founding of Yalfheim, nor any other form of political power.
"What is the difference between this and the one-party system? It is clear to form a unified political party, and the legislation is the only legal ruling party!"
Legal expert Hans Gisvius shouted loudly on the table. As the most determined democrat. It would be a wonder that he would serve as a Stasi legal advisor. The fact that working in the secret service promoted his democratic belief is even more shocking.
In Gisvius' view. It is not necessarily a good thing for the council to be controlled by a group of late grandpas, but it is of no use to the country, but it is not necessarily a good thing for the supremacy of the supreme leadership who tends to use military means to solve the problem of "survival space". The best solution is to create an additional institution with legislative and supervisory functions that can express public opinion. Expressing the interests of different parties can also restrict and supervise the ruling officer, so as to achieve power checks and balances. As for those countries outside—contact with them through the means of negotiation in a civilized society, as a kind of wisdom that also accepts the influence of civilization, the other party should understand the form and be willing to recognize the independent elven country.
"In short, our policy is peace, and it can only be peace. In the event of war, no one can really confront the ruling officer."
Another doctor of law, Hans Donani, made a statement. He was younger than Gisvius and his speech was more straightforward.
After all, the left is not all pacifists, and some members are not even more peaceful than the right. But they believe that peace is beneficial-not only for the country, but also for the power structure of Yalfheim. In their view, as long as war breaks out, regardless of the scale, the defense forces will be able to win. This poses a problem. The position of the military and the ruling officer in the hearts of the people will be more unshakable, and it will be more difficult to promote democratization.
The people always stand with the winners-this is the saucy remark made by the consul. History-Emperor Napoleon, who surrendered to Europe as a whole, became the most authoritative figure in the hearts of the French. Conquering France in 1940 and becoming the capital of the male in the hearts of the German people fully proved the rationality of these words. The leftists do not know the story of the dwarf emperor and the Austrian corporal, but they are well aware that once the war begins, the title of the consul should be replaced by "Emperor", and no one will go against a wise founding monarch.
"It is now said that it is to commemorate the 4,600 years of the imperial period, but the real purpose is actually to propagate the'national system idea, inculcate the first-class reactionary awareness to the people, improve the morale and morale of the people, and speed up the overall war preparations. We must be firm 'S opposition to imperialism and militarism, and against strengthening the power of the ruling officials, and building a truly democratic society."
Most of the participants nodded in agreement, and Karl Friedrich Goldler shook his head disapprovingly. As a representative of the left-wing monarchy advocate, he had very different views on this.
"Gentlemen, please note. After all, we are only a minority. Whether it will become an independent small country or a great empire that dominates the world, this will never change. If there is no authoritative person who can hold the scene, we will Have to face the situation of being suppressed by the majority of humans and orcs in the new legislative body. This kind of situation in the civil society will be more intense, which will lead to political chaos and ethnic conflict. By then, we still have to resort to the power we It is possible to oppose the war, but we cannot be unprepared for the war, nor can we oppose the correct opinion of the governor because of the opposition."
"Yes, gentlemen, we love democracy, but we cannot deny enlightenment."
Dietrich Bonhofer plugged in, and the Lutheran priest was agitated because of being too excited. As a priest serving the goddess, he had longed for this.
"Don't talk silly, how is this different from the right-wing group of people who demand dictatorship?!"
"The title of the consul is enough. The emperor said nothing!"
"Do you want to take the risk of violating public opinion and tearing the country?"
"In any case, the celebration of the 4,600 years of the imperial era must be low-key, or simply cancelled!"
"What stupid words..."
##########
"Oops, these intellectuals..."
Putting down the report on the content of the liberal assembly sent by Stasi, Li Lin shook his head with a wry smile, and Brenhill on the side stepped forward to collect the documents with the "extremely dense" stamp.
The show rebelled and failed for ten years-this unshakable truth is always fulfilled on the intellectuals time and time again, hitting their faces again and again.
In contrast.
"They need treatment."
Freya's face was determined, and her tone murmured:
"9㎜Headshot peanuts? Heavy tank load wheels? Or simply kick their hard. Kick them into the door that says'Work makes people free and make soap? I think either one is good. It is used to treat brain disabilities. Both are remarkable."
Just kill it cleanly;
Those who engage in democracy must die;
Thousands of years of soldiers from the guardians of order have faced the noisy voice of democracy, and they often come up with such ideas unconsciously. The military was originally a violent organization that advocated discipline and obedience, and it was naturally unpleasant to the guy who broke the social order with only one mouth. What's more, the literati are still thinking about overwhelming the soldiers, and a group of laymen are going to point the finger at war. This makes experts in this field unbearable.
As a sword and shield to protect the country and the ruling officer. It is already the bottom line of the military to intervene in finance and personnel affairs by the council. Then let such a group of bird scholars who have never seen blood come to command the army to decide the battle and major events?
"War is very important and cannot be given to intellectuals."
Thor rarely said a serious sentence. It sounds like that, but the point of view is seriously wrong.
"Tor, do you want to learn from Titans?"
Brenhill turned his face and asked:
"Let soldiers take control of government functions? How is this different from Charlemagne today? Do you want everyone to take a path that has been proven to fail?"
"No, but..."
"Shut up, Thor, the argument will only become darker and darker."
Tyre sighed. He didn't understand what Thor wanted to express, but with all the "deeds" of Titans, he witnessed the damage to the country caused by the warlord's power throughout the journey. Slightly sensible people would not approve of Yalfheim's path to military dictatorship. No matter what kind of whimsy the left wing makes, how much the military hates these long-tongues, but on this matter the two sides tend to agree.
"We just have to obey the order, and it's not our turn to come up with other things."
A perfect turnaround. Thor, who still wanted to say something, calmed down. The Tyr had made it clear enough that it is taboo for soldiers to intervene in politics, whether they are right or wrong. If he continues to say, it is not dull, but stupid.
Li Lin nodded to Tyre approvingly, his face turned sideways.
To be fair, he didn't worry about the small movements of the left. On the one hand, it is out of self-confidence in their own strength and prestige in the hearts of the people, on the other hand, it is due to the state of left-wingers scattered. As a champion of support, what reason does he have to worry about a group of intellectuals who can't even mention a decent consensus? Without the support of external forces, without the support of citizens, without a stable funding channel, without an army... Could this group of guys still be able to turn things upside down? Not to mention rebellion, even the commemorative event of the 4,600 years of the imperial era, which they must "stop", could not be put into practice.
Rather than worrying about the fragmented left wing, it is better to worry about the right-wing activists shouting "King King Loyalty" and "National Bodyguard" every day. This guy with a hot head can act more than the left wing. Of course, Li Lin also has the means to clean up them. Even the future political issues and the issues of voices from different parties have already been calculated.
(The bicameral parliamentary system and the three-level electoral system need to be stepped up, as long as the veto power over bills is ensured, and the government is established without parliament, is not accountable to the parliament, and is only responsible for the highest ruling. Plus absolute command in wartime and emergency states , Generally no problem. The most important thing right now is )
"The project is progressing well."
Looking down, Li Lin praised them, and the attending generals all showed proud expressions.
Following their line of sight, you can see a "hill", even if the distance is 2 kilometers, you can still see the situation on the unnaturally formed hill. The entire row of mixer trucks erected the tank body and poured cement into the steel structure frame. Tens of thousands of human labors spread the hills like frosting on the bread. Under the supervision of the elder foreman, he waved his tools, laid the rails, and laid the foundation. , Install all kinds of unknown equipment and pipes. Behind them, a large group of elf engineers were busy with scaffolding, rails, and gantry cranes, and a huge monster was quietly forming in their hands.
Gustav equipment. Among the artillery weapons currently installed by the Defense Forces of Alfheim, one of the most powerful and powerful weapons is also one of the most terrifying war machines since the birth of intelligent species in the world. After passing a series of rigorous tests at the South Base, this giant beast has finally been re-titled as the "Queen of Thor" and passed the ocean waiting for the post. The core of the stronghold area of ​​the Siegfried Line, the Fortress of Isherlen, is the stage for this purpose, and the surrounding train guns are enough to devastate any enemy who dares to come.
With a super giant cannon such as "Thundergod's Hammer", there is a greater chance of winning whether it is attacking or sticking to the defense line. "Hammer" is not enough to worry about. From this perspective, it is the timely entry of the Thor's Hammer that has strengthened the military's confidence in the "Yellow Plan" and made them more able to let it go.
"Construction and training continue to work hard. UU reading www.uukanshu.com must form a combat power before the scheduled time for the war. This is essential for future combat. Do you understand?"
"Comply, sir."
The students will stand together and answer loudly. At this time, a staff member on duty ran breathlessly with a telegram. After he set up, he gasped and reported:
"The headquarters of Rudes's consortium called, and Austria sent a special envoy to interview you, saying that there are major issues that need to be negotiated. The branch in the United Principality of Ross also called, and the Principality also sent a special envoy to interview. Albert Mr. Rich and Minister Schulenburg ask you how to answer."
He took a quick glance at the telegram and raised the corner of his mouth with a boyish face.
Before the opening of the circus, there will always be a rush of drums, and now, as predicted by the upcoming turmoil, these two telegrams sounded the gong of the opening of the good show.
It's not too early or too late, just in time for the Daqing celebration of the 4,600 years of the imperial period.
"Bren Hill, pack your bags and we will rush back overnight." (To be continued...)
