Stratocracy, also known as military government, military dictatorship, and warlord politics, is a form of government in which a military person serves as the head of state and the military exercises direct control. It is a kind of military government, and most of the military governments were established through coups d'état. The most important feature of a military junta is the imposition of military laws or the declaration of a permanent state of emergency.

In general, the majority of the junta is composed of members of the military. Some junta will include some civilian officials, but the military commander will still hold the supreme power. The junta will advertise itself as non-partisan and accuse civilian politicians of corruption.

A military dictatorship is conceptually similar to a military junta, except that the head of government in a military dictatorship is not necessarily an officer or a military commander. However, the rule of the military junta is usually authoritarian dictatorship. The prime example of a military junta is the State Peace and Development Council in Burma, where almost all government institutions are under the direct control of the military, and the constitution and laws are abolished.

The territory of Kagetsu Ringo is huge, equivalent to Shikoku, China, and in the real world, equivalent to the entire Kansai region of Japan, and the country name is Asahata; The landing point of everyone is Ouyu City, which is equivalent to Kyushu and Okinawa, and it is also the rear of Hanazuki Ringo, which has certain strategic significance.

Ouyu Island is named after the black-tailed gulls that fly everywhere. Like all harbor cities, it is extremely rich in supplies, the most famous of which is Gullyu ginseng. This sea cucumber spiny is small, tender, juicy, and has high nutritional value, which is not only a favorite delicacy of the samurai class, but also a treasure for the poor to live on. Gull Island ginseng inhabits the depths of the reef, the fishing net can not reach, the hook can not be caught, the fishermen have to dive to find, most of them pay the price of their lives, so the Gull Island ginseng also has another name, called "ghost crying ginseng". Legend has it that every ginseng fisher who died in the sea turned into a black-tailed gull, crying day and night, looking for Gull Island ginseng every night.

Evil folklore adds a lot of fun to the trip. Qingyi watched the process of pickling sea cucumbers with great interest, and also bought some dry goods as a souvenir to Starmack.

Dao Bing Wuji sat in the car, his face depressed: "It's so boring, is there any pastime?" Let's have some fun! ”

Kazuki Ringo, who was riding with him, was stunned for a moment, took out a handful of shamisen from the storage bag, took the cherry blossom color and played a few tunes, and just opened his mouth, the sword soldier Wuji hurriedly stopped: "Hey, it's just fun, and it's not for you to sing!" ”

"I thought that Sword Soldier-kun wanted to recite poetry and make fun......"

"It's okay to make music, but you don't have to sing poetry! Do you think Lao Tzu seems to be a person who can be vassally elegant! Dao Bing Wuji opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in front of those big black eyes, he could only sit down in frustration and watch Qingyi bargain with low-level NPCs.

In the market, you can also see many items with "Fuji" characteristics, such as the "Needle Rope" that can seal evil spirits, the "Lucky Bag" that increases the explosion rate of items, the "Lucky Cat Hand" that increases the number of gold coins dropped by monsters, the "Magatama" that increases soul protection, the "Taiko" and "Shamisen" that are suitable for bards, the cute magic pets such as "Maomata", "Weasel", and "Artemisia Sparrow", the "Tanuki Leaf" that can transform people, and the weapons "Ten Hands", "Taito", and "Kunai...... There were even more goods from overseas, and Qingyi saw many things that were special to the Dusk Empire, and he was both surprised and vigilant.

The commercial prosperity of Ouyu is comparable to that of Fengdu and Baixuecheng, but Ouyu is only a second- or third-rate small city under the rule of Huayue Ringo, and there is no garrison in the local area, and the highest level of city guards is only in the early 30s, so its capital Night Sakura City must be a hundred times more prosperous. From this, Qingyi has a general inference about the country of Chaohua: this is a country that develops towards commerce.

"It's kind of strange." Qingyi said to Xue Duodao.

Necromantic creatures can be used as soldiers, and the Necromantic Empire can abandon production at any time and enter a state of war from top to bottom. Conceptually, every Necronomicon Empire is inherently militaristic, or authoritarian. Necromantic creatures have no personal mind, resulting in the Necromantic King having unlimited dominion over the people. From body to soul, from labor to personal wealth, the existence of each necromantic creature depends only on the thought of the king, and it is simply a slave.

Qingyi took refuge and traveled while also studying and researching. He would love to see what difference a militaristic state could make from a militaristic state. Dashu is outright militarism, everything makes way for war, and the productive forces are so weak that people can sympathize; The Dusk Empire is a little better than Dashu, and it still maintains a certain level of productivity, but it is also all for the service of war, and this trend is getting stronger and stronger, and it is about to follow in the footsteps of Dashu.

However, on the other hand, there are a lot of NPCs in the life profession (the ratio of merchants and producers in Guyu City is particularly high), and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with militarism!

Back in the car, Qingyi smiled: "You are richer than us." ”

"During the Warring States period, Japan was known as the Golden Country." Kazuki Lin Yi bowed slightly, his expression was calm, and he seemed to be proud of the praise of the guests. "In order to absorb the culture of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang envoys were sent to bring a large amount of gold, and this news became a legend in various countries, which influenced Marco Polo's "Oriental Experience", and finally made Westerners misunderstand that the East was full of gold."

"You're so knowledgeable." Qingyi said in his heart: You are systematic, I am talking about your business prosperity, and you and I are talking about abundant minerals? Didn't my ancestors have a wide spacing? "I found that there is a lot of stuff sold here, and there are a lot of foreign things."

"If you want to develop, you can't close yourself off from the country, this is a bloody historical lesson. Since the Black Ship Incident and the Meiji Restoration, Japan has tried to absorb excellent foreign science and technology, catch up with the tide of capitalism, and become one of the great powers from a small land. Now that I think about it, what a miracle. ”

Qingyi nodded: "Yes." We also had a Westernization movement there, trying to 'master the art of mastering the art to control the country', but unfortunately the weak and incompetent Qing government messed everything up. ”

"It is not that the Qing government has messed up, but that the feudal society naturally cannot compromise with capitalism, and the merchant class will always infringe on the interests of the landlord class and cause contradictions."

"Yes, only by covering up aggression in the name of co-prosperity in the Great East-Asia and transferring the contradictions to foreign wars can we successfully transition to a capitalist society." Dao Bing Wuji sighed lightly: "Why is the Qing government so stupid? If we expand a bit, we will have more than 56 nationalities. ”

Katsuki Ringo was silent for a while, then stood up and bowed to the two: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. Personally, I also hate war. ”

Qingyi smiled bitterly. He could already foresee how uneasy the journey would be.

After a while, Hanazuki Lin asked "June Jun, forgive Lin Yi for being presumptuous, you are also Chinese, why did you create a character in the 'Gospel'?" ”

This question is very sharp, think I'm a cent-cent?

"When I went to live in the United States, it happened to be the open beta of "Qiankun", and I played directly on the 'gospel' server. However, after the identity was scanned, because of my Chinese nationality, I was still more or less able to get in touch with a little bit of Chinese elements, such as my uninvited general mentor, and my Taoist priest. Maybe I'll be able to have a weapon with Chinese characteristics in the future. ”

"The systematic deduction of "Qiankun" is really magical." Kazuki Ringo agreed.

Virtual games, like dreams, are all innuendos of reality.

Bigbower, Royal Palace.

"Saramonroe's envoy is dead?" The king was stunned.

But it was only a little stunned.

The most powerful man on the continent has a lot of opportunities, and his brain, body, and mind are all operated by Bigbower, and it is not easy to be slightly stunned by a small person. When the little man dies, he dies. The death of a person does not mean that the agreement signed by this person cannot be carried out, and there will still be a tacit understanding between Saramonro and Bigbower in the future.

But......

Why do you have a tacit understanding with those mud legs?

"The runaway dogs have been gone for too long and have become wolves, why do they come back and rub their master's legs with a dead face?" The king shrugged, helpless. He instructed the Minister of Intelligence, who was poking in front of him like a hardcore, "Make an appointment with Saramonroe and re-sign the agreement." ”

"Yes."

"Also, the person you watched closely died for no apparent reason? Do you think I'm blind or stupid? Or do you expect Saramonro VIII to be mentally retarded? Games belong to games, and work belongs to work. I don't want the next envoy to die in Bigbowo, it would seem like we're both incompetent. ”

The Minister of Intelligence replied: "Yes." ”

Looking at his subordinates who did not enter the oil and salt, the king was even more helpless. Capable people have many quirks, and qualified kings will of course tolerate a little willfulness of their subordinates; It's just that only his subordinates have fun, but his game can't go on, which always makes him unhappy. Isn't it? Even Saramonro is on his side, how else can the Dusk Empire play? There's no more to play this game, right?

————————————————————————————————————

"Nine percent off, 45 percent, three years."

When he saw the Saramonroe negotiators, Love said this. He hadn't even sat down at the negotiating table, his hands still clutching the doorknob. His indifferent eyes flashed with a cold, mechanical blue light. In fact, opening the door was just a symbolic action, and his [Soul Reading Technique] was already working with all his might through the wall, and he didn't have to step into the room at all.

"Huh? ......" The negotiators didn't react, and all of them turned their heads to this side, like a flock of chickens hearing a sound. The leader asked suspiciously, "I'm sorry, you-"

"Oh, fix that...... The contract fee is calculated at 80%, with a down payment of 30% and the final payment to be paid off in five years. You can use specific goods to offset 60% of the final payment, so you don't have to worry about the economic sanctions of mainland countries, right? Love's wrist retracted, looking like he had just opened the wrong door, so he left the room apologetically: "I'll get someone to draft the specific rules now." ”

There were seven or eight people on the other side, and all of them were shocked as if they had been hit by thunder magic, and then stiffened in place as if they had been hit by ice magic. It wasn't until the door slammed shut that the negotiator at the head came to his senses, pounced on the door, and roared at the young white head in the corridor: "Come back!" Sir, the details—"

"In the face of such relaxed conditions, the details are not really important. Believe me, we are sincere and will not take our word for it. Saying words that made people completely insincere, Love didn't bother to turn around, raised his hands, and didn't know whether to say goodbye to the person behind or greet the person in front.

"We don't accept it!"

"Then you wait slowly. Hopefully, you'll be able to make it in time for Ling Yan's sixteenth birthday, and in any case, her father's absence will leave a memorable day to regret. Love stretched around the corner and was gone.

Before the anger could fully condense, the negotiator's face was only shocked, and his mouth could not be closed.
