Koroga's reform continues to be advanced.
Although there were a lot of difficulties, Gu Hang actually didn’t have any big worries from the beginning.
If you hold these three things like a gun barrel, a money bag, and a pen holder, things will be difficult to accomplish.
It goes without saying that the barrel of a gun has always been the most important thing to Gu Hang. Not to mention his own direct troops, the Dragon Eagle Legion controlled by Lieutenant General Hans seems to be quite obedient at present; it should not be a big problem to get the local defense force with a scale of over 100 million.
At this point, the barrel of the gun is stabilized.
Not to mention the money bag, Koroga is as poor as a ghost. The alliance’s economic assistance, industrial reform, and imperial tax exemptions are all in Gu Hang’s hands, and they are protected by force. The money bag Very stable too.
With these, it is only difficult to promote reform, but the probability of failure is not high.
The last item, the role of the pen cannot be ignored.
This is public opinion, the right to speak, or ideology. You can call it whatever you want, but in the final analysis, it is the people’s hearts.
In fact, it is very important. In a sense, it is even more important than the first two.
It’s not enough to just have guns and money, but people’s hearts don’t follow. Society will operate in a high-consumption mode and cannot become the norm.
But fortunately, the alliance’s ruling system has always had a good grasp on people’s hearts.
The development of productivity and the rise of living standards will directly capture the most basic people's hearts; the alliance's propaganda and mobilization department is also carrying out their work, and the most important thing is to bring these good changes to the former. Being bound to the alliance and Governor Gu will naturally win the hearts of the people.
But this alone is not enough.
Especially the place of Koroga.
In the past, a point that Gu Hang never had time to care about is becoming more and more important recently.
That is the state religion.
The state religion is a force in the empire that is easily overlooked, but in fact it should never be ignored.
They have some dark history, and under the strict restrictions of the empire, their power has been greatly weakened. They can't even build an armed force and can only fight in a rather nondescript manner. The Sisters, not to mention one-third of the Battle Sisters are under the orders of the Inquisition, another third are directly under the orders of the Empire, and the remaining one-third are under the orders of the State Church, but half of them are independent. Still very strong.
However, they still cannot be underestimated.
The most important point is their influence on people's hearts.
The entire human empire has the Emperor as its universal belief. From peddlers to fearless heroes, from poor people at the bottom to powerful people at the top, from psychic scholars to minions of the Inquisition, there is no one who doesn’t shout the words "Emperor's blessing"
Even those in the Adeptus Mechanicus who have nothing but brains Dare to change, other places can't wait to replace everything with mechanical parts., the God of All Opportunities shouted in their mouths, they also admitted that it was the incarnation of the emperor.
The Emperor’s influence is everywhere.
Koroga is the core area of the state religion among the recent star districts. The reason is that there are many people here, and the state religion needs to expand its influence here, so hundreds of years ago, it established a diocese, set up a cathedral, and even sent a sister order of fighting sisters such as Holy Mercy Lily to be permanent. Here it is.
The Holy Mercy Lily is small, but it is also a serious nun.
In Koroga, the priests of the state church will really go to the lowest level. Some of them ascetics, dressed in the simplest and tattered cloth, go to lower-level areas to treat illnesses and save people, distribute food, and act as arbiters to resolve disputes. Of course, these things are secondary. The most important thing is to preach and appease people.
In Gu Hang’s observation, many of these members of the state religion, especially the upper class, are also very extravagant, which fits Gu Hang’s stereotype of decadent religious forces. But objectively speaking, what they have done in Koroga over the past long years has still played a role in stabilizing society, and has also been widely recognized among the people.
However, Gu Hang has always been relatively uninterested in religion, and even has a vague feeling of rejection. Moreover, in the highly centralized political system ecosystem of the Alliance, there was no place for the power of the state religion from its initial design.
This cannot be the case when we arrive in Korodya.
If the issue of the state religion cannot be properly handled, the reform policy implemented by the Alliance in Koroja will not only be difficult to implement, but will at least achieve twice the result with half the effort.
After several rounds of internal discussions, Gu Hang and his officials probably had a plan.
However, before meeting with Bishop Zhao Qinghong of Korojia, Gu Hang met with another person first.
Under the recommendation of his old acquaintance, Sister Gerrit, Gu Hang personally visited the leader of Holy Mercy Lily, the Mother Superior, Ms. Mei Dixi.
This is their second meeting.
Ms. Mei Dixi looks very old. According to herself, she is 128 years old and has never had any life-extending surgery.
This is very rare, and has almost reached the theoretical limit of human lifespan.
Gu Hang believed that this might really be the emperor’s blessing. After all, he had also seen that when Gorruite was fighting, her illusory golden wings stretched out from behind her. She killed the enemy like chopping melons and vegetables. She was no worse than the leader of the regiment next door, Martins.
Medixi was once a member of the Order of the Blood Rose and a combat hero with outstanding merits. Later, due to some differences in ideas, she no longer agreed with the too intense and cruel ideas of Blood Rose. She and some like-minded people established the lower order of Blood Rose, and then became independent, which is now the Holy Mercy. Lily.
Anyway, now Gu Hang isThere is no way to tell that the kind-hearted old lady in front of her has anything to do with the rumored Blood Rose, the executioner of the Inquisition who has terrified countless people.
"Sister Mei Dixi, I am very happy to see that you are in good health."
"Thank you, Governor Gu." The old lady said with a smile, "But that's all for greetings. , just tell me why you are looking for me. If it is about the state religion, then there is no need. For matters related to the state religion, you should go to Bishop Zhao. We, Holy Mercy Lily, only do what we should. Others never get involved in what they do."
Hearing this, Gu Hang felt more at ease.
Although Mei Dixi seemed to realize that he, the governor, cared about the influence of the state religion, so he pretended to say ugly things first, but in fact, Gu This is the attitude that Hang wants.
"If this is the case, that would be the best. I have always admired the concept of the Holy Mercy Lily, do what you should do and do the right thing. The warriors of the Sisters are not afraid of Sacrifice helped me a lot on the Raging Owl Star, and also made outstanding contributions on the battlefield of Koroga. I also know that when there is no war, the non-combat order nuns of the Holy Mercy Lily will fight to the end. Chao preached. In the future, I still hope that the Holy Mercy Lily will play a corresponding role, which will be of great help to Koroja's recovery."
"We will," Mei Dixi responded.
But in fact, she was a little unsure of what the Governor-General meant.
Is this what I came to visit in person to say?
Then they will do the same without the Governor saying anything.
They have been doing this for thirty years.
And Gu Hang is still talking.
He said, "I will give all necessary help to the Sisters. Your development in Koruga and even within the entire alliance will receive strong support from the alliance government. We will provide all necessary help." Conditions to help the missionaries of the Sisters; the Sisters can further expand their scale, and you can recruit everyone you want; you can start a nun class in our college;"
" If your nuns need customized power armor, I can find a way to help you. My soldiers have also seen that the performance of the Goddess series power armor is more suitable for nuns than the universal series commonly used by Holy Mercy Lily. If the Sisters lack funds and corresponding support, the alliance can even come in the form of donations."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Governor," Mei Dixi quickly stopped.
Although Governor Gu claimed a series of help, why did she sound so frightened?
At her age, she has never believed that there are freeloaders in this world. lunch.
If you take these things, of course you have to pay the corresponding price.
"I'm old, Mr. Governor." Mei Dixi said, "It's hard for me to think about the twists and turns behind many things. It's better toLet's be direct. Frankly speaking, these things of yours are indeed what the Sisters need and care about most. What do you want Holy Mercy Lily to do?"
Gu Hang said with a smile, "It's very simple, just do what the Sisters did in the past. Relieve the sick and weak, punish evil and eliminate evil, and spread the gospel. Isn't this the purpose of the Holy Mercy Lily?"
"That's it?"
"That's it. Gu Hang's smile became even brighter, "Just do these things. There is no need to intervene in other things that nuns should not do. What do you think?"
Mei Dixi understands
She couldn’t help but ask, “Are you going to attack Bishop Zhao?”
“Of course not. "Gu Hang said, "I am an extremely loyal governor of the empire, how could I be an enemy of the state religion? I have always respected the role of the state religion in the construction of the planet. It's just that the state religion should play a role under the alliance's system so that they can work together better, what do you think?"
Mei Dixi sighed, "If it's too much, it won't work. ”
Gu Hang knew that the matter was settled.
He said no, but this was obviously a tacit attitude.
It’s okay if it’s not too much< /p>
Gu Hang stood up with a smile, "Don't worry. I sincerely hope that the Sisters will develop better and better in the future. After all, in this cruel universe, the light of the Lily of Mercy is greatly needed. ”
As the saying goes, eating people with short mouths and taking advantage of people with short hands is like this with the Holy Mercy Lily.
After Gu Hang promised various supports and even various donations in the future, they approximately She has a tacit attitude towards what the Alliance will do next.
And that’s not all.
After Holy Mercy Lily accepted various assistance from the Alliance, many things changed. How can you stay out of the matter?
One hundred sets of the alliance's stock of Samurai Gods were quickly shipped over, and they were painted with the white and green colors of the Holy Mercy Lily when they were shipped out of the warehouse. Style.
In addition, the promised nun class and the promised missionary protection are all in place.
What can’t be done?
I wore it. Waiter God, don’t you want to work for me?
The nuns who went to preach were quickly pulled by the alliance officials to work in various production teams, engineering groups, and factories. Of course it can comfort the soul. It should be taken care of by looking at work-related injuries and boosting workers' morale.
The nuns are working. As sisters who wield force, the fighting nuns can't do it.
With dozens of battle nuns stationed in one neighborhood, can a large part of the alliance's military control troops be withdrawn?
As Gu Hang said, he does not need the saints. As long as Ci Lily does their job well, it will be of great help.
And the Holy Ci Lily is the most important force controlled by the Koroja State Church. , the Sisters have always been in Koroga,Especially in Mingyan City, it has a great soothing effect on people's hearts.
But after they had no problems, Gu Hang no longer had such big scruples when it came to attacking the state religion.
A series of laws were promulgated.
Of course Gu Hang does not want to abolish the state religion, but the state religion under the alliance system should act under the management of the alliance.
They no longer have economic privileges and cannot intervene in production;
Cannot force, semi-force, or induce donations;
Non-public preaching is prohibited , no secret gatherings are allowed;
Corrupt elements should be eliminated;
The alliance will not interfere with the financial resources allocated by the superior state religion, but the purpose of use needs to be reported to the alliance
< p>This series of measures almost stepped on the tail of the state religion. Zhao Qinghong was so anxious that she quickly came to see Gu Hang.He has no cards left to play.
Even if they want to engage in confrontation, they have no military power and no finances. Even if they want to inspire people, there are still Holy Mercy Lily over there to do the work of stabilizing people's hearts for the alliance, and the effect is greatly reduced.
Gu Hang’s attitude towards Zhao Qinghong is still very good, but the rules mentioned above are iron laws, and Gu Hang is not going to compromise.
But he has also relaxed in some areas. For example, in terms of missionary work, Gu Hang is willing to give strong support to the state religion. Faith in the Emperor can significantly inhibit the corruption of cults.
At the same time, the alliance is also willing to provide a special religious allocation.
Gu Hang is essentially asking for money. He can give it to you, support it, or give it to you, but you just have to do your work honestly and contribute to the development of Koluojia. As for abnormal means of raising money such as economic privileges, holding sectarian gatherings and getting involved in politics are not allowed.
Zhao Qinghong compromised on this.
Even the last allocation from the state church superiors needs to be supervised by the alliance, and he accepted it.
In many worlds where the state religion is weak, local governments often make such requests, which is not excessive.
If you don’t want to cause trouble, why don’t you tell the government about the funds?
