"Honey, you want to stop the Wei Nation from invading the Qing Kingdom?”
"Hmm, do you think that with Russia backing Qianlong, the Wei Nation will stop invading?”
Catherine nodded subconsciously.
In the next second, she shook her head again as she was familiar with Qin Jun's personality. She asked in puzzlement,""Hubby, the Wei Nation is small and lacks resources, so it's not very strong.”
"With the help of our Russia, the Wei Nation won't start a full-scale war, right?”
Wrong!
At the mention of the Wei Nation, Qin Jun's mood became even worse.
Who did the gardener hate the most?
Other than the Wei Nation people, no one else counted.
He hated the Wei Nation to the bone, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he wanted to eat their flesh.
"You're thinking too much. Although the Wei Nation's economy has made great progress due to the modern and industrial era, it also faces two extremely serious problems.”
"First, the distribution of wealth in the Wei Nation is extremely uneven, and civilians are severely exploited.”
"This has to start from before the reform. During the Edo period, the Wei Nation was a country with a shogunate system. In addition to the territories directly under the generals, the entire country was also divided into a large number of vassals.”
" After the reform, although the government took away the ruling rights of these lords, they didn't deprive them of their property. Instead, they maintained their property and allowed them to continue to have huge wealth.”
" At the same time, the government also took over the debts accumulated by these old daimyo in Edo for more than 200 years and turned them into public debts, further consolidating the wealth of these people.”
" Then, the government implemented the land rent correction, confirming the freedom of private ownership and circulation of land, so that land is still concentrated in the hands of a small number of large landowners.”
"The reason why the Restoration Government did this was partly because the Restoration Party was originally a vassal clan, and partly to protect the national system they had established.”
"In this system, the big landowners were integrated with the entire aristocratic system of the empire. This was also the result of the reform elders at that time. They wanted to learn from the Germanic Empire and create a big landowner class to maintain the rule of the empire.”
"This also shows that the Wei Nation's reform was built with the oligarchic empire as its goal from the very beginning.”
"Therefore, under such a system, the farmers of the Wei Nation suffered extremely high land rent and exploitation, and their lives were miserable. In the Taisho period, there were even cases of selling their children.”
" In the early Shōwa period, due to the severe imbalance of the land system and the expansion of military spending, there was a famine in the northeast of Shōwa that lasted for several years. A large number of people died of malnutrition caused by the famine.”
"In addition, the Wei Nation's domestic market is small, and the level of industrial and commercial development is limited.”
"This problem is partly due to the distribution of wealth in the Wei Nation, which is too concentrated, resulting in the lack of a large consumer class, causing the market to shrink. On the other hand, the Wei Nation's territory and population are naturally limited.”
" At the same time, the economic conservativeness that prevailed in the world has caused every country to erect high trade barriers, and the foreign market has become narrow.”
"Not to mention the traditional mercantile countries like France and Germany, after the current Great Recession, even the beautiful country of Great Britain, which once advocated free trade, has moved towards closed customs barriers.”
" Great Britain implemented the imperial preferential treatment system, intending to rely on its own land and colonies to build a business circle, not allowing other countries to seize the market and profits. The beautiful country also began to implement heavy taxation, causing the Wei Nation's largest export, raw silk, to suddenly plummet, igniting the entire country's economy.”
"These two problems together, coupled with the population expansion, from 40 million in the Meiji era to 70 million today, caused the internal conflicts in the Wei Nation to become extremely intense, and the social mood is also very excited.”
" The contradictions are getting deeper and deeper. The reason why the young soldiers are running amok is partly because they are deeply influenced by the extreme ideologies and hope to expand their territory more fiercely. On the other hand, they are indeed indignant at the corruption of the cabinet and hope to clear the obstacles and rebuild the Imperium.”
"The so-called theory of defeating the corporations and creating a new empire.”
" Therefore, the domestic social contradictions are very sharp, and the political turmoil needs to be alleviated through external plunder.”
"The war is inevitable. There is no room for reconciliation.”
Speaking of this, Qin Jun recalled the intelligence gathered by the Wei Nation branch.
After the investigation and analysis of the secret agents, they came to a conclusion.
The Wei Nation was too arrogant, they actually wanted to occupy Eastern Siberia and obtain enough resources for development.
Why was he so bold?
First, Russia had just experienced civil strife. The old system that had lasted for hundreds of years had collapsed, and social order was in chaos.
Although Catherine had turned the tide and quickly stabilized the situation.
However, 70% of the officers in the Russian army were noble officers who had received formal military training and had rich commanding experience.
The backbone of the Saro-Russian army had almost been wiped out in the civil strife because they had rebelled and joined the rebels who had saved the government.
As for the officers in the Russian army…it was hard to explain in a few words!
The Wei Nation was taking advantage of the unstable social system in Russia, the huge economic losses, and the disunity of the military to take your life.
And behind the Wei Nation, there was no lack of figures from the beautiful country of Great Britain, France.
Needless to say, these three sh * t-stirrers did not want Russia to rise up, and because of the economic depression, they did not have the energy to give Russia a taste of its medicine, so they turned a blind eye and allowed the Wei Nation to invade the Qing Kingdom.
If they didn't help the Qing to defend against the Wei Nation's invasion, and didn't put pressure on the Wei Nation to stop, who could the Qing Kingdom ask for help?
There was no one else besides their neighbor, Tsarist Russia.
Russia, which urgently needed to open up the market and revive its economy, would let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
Moreover, how could he allow others to sleep beside him?
The Wei Nation had swallowed the Qing Kingdom and obtained a huge population and mineral resources. With such a vicious neighbor by their side, they probably wouldn't even be able to sleep in peace…
To sum up, this battle had to be fought even if he didn't want to!
Qin Jun sighed helplessly. He was very impressed by the methods of the three sh * t-stirring countries of Great Britain and France. They were too f * cking disgusting.
