Chapter 4598, beyond the outline
After the news was announced, all the close confidants acted very calmly.
In other words, they had already expected this day to come.
Especially Guo Jia, as the one with the best brains among the cronies, he is very clear about the situation in Xiacheng District.
At first glance, their Xiacheng District has successfully obtained autonomy, the people's lives are getting better and better, and the development of Xiacheng District is getting better and better.
But in Guo Jia's view, this kind of life is still unstable.
All this comes from a verbal agreement between Luo Ji and the bishop, but this does not mean that this agreement will last forever.
Let’s not talk about the possibility that the Catholic Church will repent, let’s just talk about the replacement of the bishop. What if the bishop of this city is replaced?
The purpose of this bishop is to accumulate merit so that he can return to the Holy City, rather than to wait to die in a border city on a border planet.
If one day, the bishop is really promoted, then other wingmen will come here.
At that time, if they want to continue to maintain their current life, they will have to negotiate with the newly appointed bishop.
But the problem is that the personality of the newly appointed bishop may not be the same as the current bishop, so they may not be able to reach a consensus with the newly appointed bishop.
From these examples, we can see that their current situation in Xiacheng District is too passive.
And if they want to break this passive situation, they must break another layer of shackles in front of them again, so that the human beings in the Holy Light Holy See can achieve further development.
In the final analysis, in one word, it is to enhance human strength.
Only by improving their strength can they truly turn passivity into initiative.
However, this sounds easy to say, but extremely difficult to do.
Because in the Holy Light Holy See, there is really a huge gap between the strength of humans and the Winged Ones.
At the same time, this gap in strength also caused them to fall into a vicious cycle.
Because the difference in strength was too big, they did not dare to increase their strength in order to avoid incurring the killing intent of the Yi Ren.
And it is precisely because they dare not improve their strength that the strength gap between them and Yiren cannot be effectively narrowed.
This can be said to be a very typical vicious cycle, and it is difficult to break.
Guo Jia, who had been promoted by Luo Ji to the position of Chief of Staff of the City Guard Army since they had achieved self-government in the lower city, had thought about this issue in his mind more than once.
He knew what the crux of the problem was, but he couldn't solve it.
But at the same time, many key cronies, including Guo Jia, also knew that Luo Ji had been quietly building up strength.
After all, for the mass production of weapons and equipment, without the help of key cronies like them, it would be very difficult to remain hidden and not be noticed by the wingmen in the upper city.
But even so, Guo Jia didn't think that after being equipped with better weapons and equipment, their city guard army would be able to compete with the wingmen in the upper city.
The reality is cruel, they still can't compete with the Winged People.
Just when Guo Jia was wondering how their Lord, the City Lord, planned to break this cycle of death, or in fact, there was no way their Lord, the City Lord, could break this cycle of death, Luo Ji gave the answer:
The jaws of all the cronies, including Guo Jia, were shocked on the spot.
No matter how he thought about it, he would never have imagined that the solution given by their Lord of the City was to cooperate with the rebels of the Holy Light Holy See!
Good guy, for Guo Jia, this question is definitely out of line.
As a human being, Guo Jia had very limited knowledge of the situation on the Winged People's side, and he had no suitable channels to learn about it. Therefore, he could never have imagined that there would be a group of Winged People who wanted to stage a coup.
Under this premise, it is certainly impossible for Guo Jia to give the answer of 'cooperating with the Yiren rebels'.
In any case, many key confidants expressed no opinion on this news.
But this does not mean that all the people under their command, as well as the people in the entire lower city, will accept it.
In fact, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan were completely predictable.
Once this news gets out, some people will definitely say that they are the lackeys of the Winged People.
Although it has not been long enough since they obtained the autonomy of Xiacheng District for a generation to forget their experience of being ruled by the Winged People, some people in Xiacheng District have already grown to the point where they cannot survive.
The fundamental reason still comes from their ignorance.
After being freed from the oppression of Yi Ren, life became more comfortable and better and better, which made some people feel a little elated and even began to have some delusions.
They didn't know that the guards assigned to the Xiacheng District Supervisory Bureau by Yiren were just the tip of the iceberg of the Yiren's military strength. They thought that the guards were afraid of them and retreated, which meant that their strength was superior to that of Yiren.
Regarding this kind of situation, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan were actually not too nervous.
Today, the economy and people's lives of the entire downtown area are completely inseparable from the Scarlet Group.
Under this premise, the power in Xiacheng District was concentrated in the hands of Luo Ji, the city lord, and all important positions in the framework were held by their close associates.
The dissatisfaction of a certain group of fools may cause some rumors and commotion among the people, but it is not that easy to shake their rule.
Not to mention that they still have the decisive force of the 'city guard army' in their hands.
Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan were very strict when it came to selecting personnel for the city guard army.
One of the most important selection criteria is not physical fitness, but ideological character.
If your physical fitness is not good, you can practice it, but if your character is not good, it is very difficult to change it. After all, it is easy to change the situation, but hard to change the nature.
Therefore, every city guard, and even every police officer in the police station, in addition to daily work and training, they also need to go through a very important link on a regular basis, which is ideological education.
Cultural education is a big project, but it is also a troublesome matter, and there is no way to achieve results in the short term.
With funds for the development of Xiacheng District being tight, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan did not plan to spend time or money on this in the short term.
But ideological education is different.
Ideological education is the instillation of ideas. Even if the target of education cannot read a word, it is still effective. This greatly lowers the threshold for receiving education. It is far simpler than cultural education.
Under Luo Ji's rule, ideological education was basically carried out as long as the city guard and police systems were established.
The soldiers and police officers who are still serving in the city guards and police stations are basically people who are highly recognized in their ideological concepts.
