Chapter 145 Have an example
Lin Junhong smiled and made tea himself, gave the two brothers a cup, and said, "Actually, we all know in our hearts that Ozil does not want to be independent from the empire. Everything he implemented in Tibet has a premise, that is, to get the support of the empire, otherwise his rule would be challenged."
There is no doubt that Ozil implemented a very radical public ownership system in Tibet, which is a forward-looking thinking, which is one step further than the "equal land and exemption of taxes" of peasant uprisingers like Li Zicheng. Although it is very radical, these policies do not include massacre.
A large number of old nobles and monks of the Yellow Cult only lost their means of production and did not completely lose their influence. Some of these people fled to the empire or neighboring countries, and some were forbearing in Tibet, wanting to restore the old order at all times.
The Imperial Security Bureau never gave up contact with these people, but did not provide substantial support. Li Junwei and Ozil even made clear in the correspondence.
The Empire did not object to his radical rule over Tibet, and all the work it did was to prevent the land from falling into the hands of ambitious people or being taken advantage of by those enemies of the subcontinent after his failure.
It is precisely because of the empire's default attitude that the two countries on the subcontinent that directly border Tibet, the Hindustan Empire and the Mughal Dynasty, did not have the courage to support the old forces in Tibet on a large scale.
Lin Junhong continued: "We actually know that everything Ozil does will not realize a real threat to the empire, whether in terms of strength or geopoliticality."
Li Junhua nodded, and Li Junwei smiled meaningfully without expressing his opinion.
Is everything Ozil does really not pose a threat? He doesn't think so, of course, in terms of strength, it is indeed the case. Although Tibet has a vast territory, it is a plateau environment and is not suitable for the development of industry and agriculture. The carrying capacity of the population is also extremely limited.
Since the arrival of the Little Ice Age in the late Tang Dynasty, the temperature on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has dropped and high-yield economic crops like wheat cannot be planted. It has been destined that in terms of natural endowment, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau will no longer produce a country that has a huge impact on the mainland like Tubo.
A small agricultural country will never be an opponent of a big industrial country, no matter how advanced the system of that agricultural country is.
But the problem is that thought is not a sword or a human being, it will be spread through various channels. Just as after the rise of the empire, ideas such as equality, fraternity, and rule of law are spreading rapidly, the politics implemented by Ozil will also spread. Perhaps Ozil will not succeed, but this regime already has a red background, and red thought is destined to be a huge challenge to a capitalist country like the empire with a binary constitutional monarchy.
Lin Junhong continued to explain: "I have also been studying the Ozil regime in Tibet recently. The madness of the early regime has gradually disappeared. As every country and every dynasty has experienced, the dividends of the early establishment are gradually disappearing, and the bureaucracy will gradually become rigid.
The people who supported Ozil now have great power and hope to get more material enjoyment, which Ozil has always advocated strict control. Especially in recent years, not only the bureaucratic system, but also the most basic ranch farms have problems. From this point of view, Ozil's regime cannot last for a long time. I can even conclude that if Ozil himself dies, everything will be destroyed."
As he said that, Lin Junhong pulled out three or five thin pieces of paper from the thick materials as evidence. The two brothers Li Junhua looked at it and were both surprised because the information that Lin Junhong attached the most was not from the vassal states and intelligence departments such as the Lifan Academy and the Security Bureau, but from the Ministry of Agriculture of the Empire.
Ozil's compassionate attitude towards the empire was not just to obtain the empire's political support, but also needed a lot of things.
For example, in the first seven or eight years of the establishment of the regime, the most important officials and generals of the Ozil regime were taken away from the Guihua Hall of the Lifan Academy system. Most of them were concubines from low-level foreign vassals who had children, young children, but were educated. This was the initial team of the Tibet Diba regime, and then it was mainly trained by Ozil from the liberation of serfs.
What Ozil attaches most importance to is cooperation in agriculture and animal husbandry. After all, Tibet is a production model dominated by animal husbandry. Everything Ozil does not only give the Tibetan people freedom and the rule of law, but also wants to give them a happier life, which requires a solid material foundation.
Every year, the Ozil regime introduced a large number of cattle and sheep breeding animals from pastures under the control of Lifanyuan, so that the mixed animals in Tibet have gradually been replaced by cattle and sheep with better milk production capabilities.
In agriculture, Tibet also promotes the barley varieties trained by the Imperial Academy of Agricultural Sciences. The Empire also sent many agricultural technicians to Tibet for assistance, and the information specially retrieved by Lin Junhong was from the hands of these dispatchers.
These dispatched personnel found that the yield of the same variety of barley in Tibet was much lower per mu. No matter how you improve the farming and fertilization, it is useless, and the yield per mu is getting smaller and smaller. At first, they thought it was a difference in farming methods and climate environment, but recent studies have found that the yield of the same variety and the same area is still quite different.
The data introduced were obtained in the Xining Appeasement Zone, which was the only appeasement zone in the empire located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which directly bordered the land under Ozil's control. Two pieces of land, one belongs to Tibet collective farms, and the other belongs to the Xining Appeasement Zone. The farthest distance is only thirty miles apart. The same seeds and the same farming technology are used. Even the farmers who cultivate are mainly Tibetans, but the yield varies greatly. The per mu of the experimental fields in the Xining Appeasement Zone exceeds that of the Tibetan collective farms.
In fact, it is not only barley cultivation, but also the difference in output in animal husbandry is even more obvious.
After reading these materials, Li Junhua immediately understood that this was no longer an agricultural issue or a technical issue, but an institutional issue.
Although the collective farm and collective pasture system implemented by Ozil in Tibet ensures the stability of the regime, the enthusiasm of farmers and herdsmen to produce has declined year by year because they eat big pots. Who is willing to do more?
However, because of the reform, even the current inefficient production organization method has higher productivity than under the serfdom, so Ozil and his partners do not pay much attention to this.
Li Junwei knew that Ozil's regime originated from his simple ideals, and just so happened that the support of the empire gave him room to realize his ideals. This regime was essentially an accident.
From another perspective, Ozil's regime is just an ideal, built on Ozil himself, including at most a few confidants' authoritarian authority. They do not have a mature organization to sublimate and inherit this ideal. He and his subordinates are still loose. This is not a faithful organization, nor has it established a systematic value and ideology. Ozil's passion is being wiped out and will sooner or later disappear.
The light of this regime lies in the present and their future is very dark. But this does not mean that everything Ozil does is meaningless. He is destined to be the pioneer of this era. The Yangtze River pushes the previous waves. Even if the previous wave is photographed on the beach, it cannot be denied that it has set off the torrent of the era.
Li Junwei supported Ozil and only regarded everything about him as a huge experiment. He did not think Ozil would succeed, but just hoped that theory and practice could confirm each other and become a cornerstone of the future.
Therefore, Li Junwei was very alert to the analysis made by Lin Junhong. He was very worried that this guy would create an illusion for Li Junhua, the decision-maker, who believed that the Ozildeba regime in Tibet was not unbreakable, but fell down with one push.
"So, Brother Junhong means using force?" Li Junwei raised his eyebrows and asked as plain as possible.
Lin Junhong laughed: "Haha, of course not, third brother, don't be nervous. I just hope to find a balance between the territorial law and the punishment of foreign vassals, and both sides compromise."
If you do not want to change the territory of Tibet, you must destroy Ozil's regime and achieve direct rule over Tibet. But if you do not want to do this, then you must give Ozil's regime a special status in handling the foreign vassals.
Li Junhua asked: "Does Junhong have insights?"
Lin Junhong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you know that I rarely get involved in the affairs of the Lifan Yuan, and I am not very familiar with the vassal government. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that I have some advantages of being clear about bystanders. I have considered it carefully during this period and I do have some ideas in my mind, but they are not systematic and may not be suitable for use. There are no outsiders today, so I will share it."
Li Junwei has been hesitating about this matter. With the openness of the case of slavery, the reform of the vassal government has been no longer a turnaround. But the problem is that this has exceeded Li Junwei's original expectations.
According to Li Junwei's vision at that time, this time the reform of the vassal state was only aimed at the external vassal states in the inner Xinjiang region, while the western, far and northern borders were only adjusted and did not change its essence. For example, the Turguts completely searched for a pasture with abundant water and grass for them on the vast Kazakh grasslands and moved them. After all, those real vassal states still needed the support of the military power owned by the foreign vassal states.
But the problem is that in Li Junhua's eyes, the external vassal is the external vassal, and we must treat everyone equally.
The problem created by Li Junwei himself did not prepare a solution to the problem in advance. This was the first time he encountered it in his life, so he was very uncomfortable.
"Jun Hong, it's clear." Li Junhua signaled not to be restrained.
Lin Junhong said: "We have discussed this matter deeply. The purpose of the reform of the vassal government is already very clear. Our goal is not to eliminate the aristocratic class, not only to eliminate the imperial nobles, but also to eliminate the foreign nobles. What we really need to do is to return the civilian land. Establish direct rule over all the empire's territory and give the same treatment to all citizens, right?"
"There is no doubt about this. For the outside world, we deliberately blur the ending we want in order to have free space for policy development, so that the domestic bourgeoisie and the foreign nobles in the border areas do not know our bottom line. But it is clear between the three of us that what we want is the return of the land." Li Junhua reiterated his attitude again.
The so-called return of the land is to seize the rule of the aristocratic class over the grassroots. The establishment of the empire gave birth to many military aristocrats. The senate and noble class composed of these military aristocrats are still the most important part of the imperial politics. However, these nobles only had few legal and economic privileges and had exclusive political privileges such as senate. However, they did not have the territorial or territory. On the contrary, although the foreign nobles were subject to many restrictions, they had territorial and territory.
This time, the reform of the vassal state was to bring the land and the people back to the hands of the empire.
Lin Junhong continued: "Since that's the case, there is no need to be eliminated in Tibet's Ozil regime. In this reform of the vassal state, some people sing the vassal states, some people sing the vassal states, and some people sing the vassal states. Similarly, among the vassal states, some people sing the negative teaching materials, and some people sing the positive example."
At present, the emperor is the one who sings the red face, and the one who sings the white face is King Yu Li Junwei. After all, Li Junwei is the one who finally dealt with the situation. Among the foreign vassals, King Chahar Abunai must be the opposite textbook.
"You mean, let Ozil be the role model for all foreign vassals?" Li Junwei asked. He thought for a while and said, "This is basically impossible."
"It's just an example on the surface. In fact, you and I know that the name of Tibet is a foreign vassal state in nature, and it is essentially a vassal state. We have not yet established direct rule over Tibet. Ozil cannot leave the support of the empire now, so as long as the inner world does not change, he will cooperate with the empire's work on the surface." Lin Junhong explained.
Li Junhua said: "What's the specific?"
"First of all, change the name, establish a separate Us Tibet appeasement zone, and change the official names of those in the Ozil regime. Secondly, let Ozil improve the legal basis of Tibet. For example, now he collects the farmland, pastures and minerals in Tibet for his regime, and this time he directly made it clear that all the land belongs to the empire. Of course, it is just a superficial work." Lin Junhong said.
Although it is just a superficial work, the promotion of the foreign vassals from the empire is essentially deprived. Li Junwei said: "Although Ozil is very authoritarian, we must be clear that those under his command may not be willing."
"This is easy to deal with. Just carry out a cleanup. Ozil should be very clear. Everything in Tibet originates from his absolute authority. He may not be able to do such a thing as eliminating dissidents. Moreover, Ozil has discovered that his regime is slowly corrupting. I don't think he wants to wait until he is so old that he can't walk and his regime is full of holes." Lin Junhong said with a smile.
