“Resarite, what happened outside?

Why do so many gunfires suddenly appear?”

As the head of the Levi's guard regiment and the current supreme commander of the guard troops around Levi, Resarith should have taken on part of Levi's secretarial work, especially in controlling the information of Toulouse.

Even the mayor of Toulouse needs to cross the threshold of Resarith if he wants to meet Livi.

"I'm very sorry, I'm disturbing my work.

This morning, a large number of people gathered to cause trouble emerged from the slums and civilian areas. They used the banner of "opposing civil war, opposing war taxes, opposing war indefinite labor bills" and heading towards wealthy and commercial areas, expelling the police there and starting collectively smashing and looting.

I suspect that it was the Jacobin revolutionary lurking in Toulouse that suddenly took action against Toulouse.

The revolutionaries are competing with public opinion to cooperate with their front-line offensives, wanting to make the big cities behind us chaotic and even threaten your life safety.

I had dispatched the garrison corps to suppress it before, but now it seems that the effect is not very good, and the rioters have not been dispersed."

“War Tax?

Indefinite Labor Act during Wartime?

Haha, these Jacobins have made good excuses this time!"

Li Wei narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a seemingly calm voice.

War tax is naturally a general term for various taxes temporarily added by the Li Wei regime for this war, and it is not specifically targeted at the civilian class. Whether the poor or the rich, there are different amounts of war taxes to be paid.

None of the rich capitalists who pay more taxes dare to stand up and talk too much. Unexpectedly, those mud legs can't help it!

As for the Indefinite Labor Act during the War, it is a bill for the civilian class.

Due to the war, both the Li Wei regime and the French revolutionary regime controlled the economy were seriously affected, and it can be called "the people's life is in vain."

This makes it impossible for many civilians to pay the war tax at all.

So there was a wartime indefinite labor bill as a substitute.

Since you don't have money, sell your labor.

The most criticized thing about the Indefinite Labor Act during the War is to eliminate all idle people in society.

Whether it is a beggar on the street, a idle street slut, a hooligan, etc., as long as you are not serious and pass the official job, you will be captured by the police, security team, garrison team and other government violent agencies on the street patrol, and then forcibly arrange work for you!

In addition, many factories and handicraft workshops have implemented wartime semi-military controls in order to improve production efficiency. Not to mention weekends, there is not even overtime pay!

Of course, civilians who comply with the Indefinite Labor Act of War are not without benefits, at least they can be exempted from war taxes and will not starve to death.

However, the high-intensity labor-based exploitation and the control of personal freedom, the civilian proletariat, like slave labor, have long been dissatisfied with the decree issued by the Li Wei regime.

Why did the Levi regime never have a logistical shortage problem during the civil war with the French Revolutionary Government, which had higher public support?

It is because these strict laws constantly exploit the labor force of the civilian proletariat!

The proletariat here is different from the proletariat concepts in later generations, and it stipulates that people do not have fixed assets of certain value.

If there is only one ordinary property with low value, it will be included in the proletarian civilian class.

In fact, it is not a complete bad thing to be assigned to the proletariat by the Levi regime. At least they bear much lower war taxes than the bourgeoisie, and if they comply with the Indefinite Labor Act during the War, all war taxes can be exempted!

However, during the implementation of the Indefinite Labor Act during the War, because the middle and lower management executives were not administrative officials, they did not consider the health and life issues of the civilian proletariat at all. In order to complete the production indicators issued by the higher authorities, they wished they could take up all the sleep time of the workers.

There are even many factories that use kerosene lamps and candles to carry out 24-hour uninterrupted shifts.

There is no concept of three shifts in this era, only two shifts in the concept...

This is actually a pretty good working environment. Most factories and handicraft workshops do not want to bear the expenses of lighting tools such as kerosene lamps and candles. They only take one shift and keep doing it at dawn, and do other things within their ability when it gets dark.

Those workers were encircled together to work, sleep and eat all day long, and could not go home at all.

Under this pressure, it will naturally cause dissatisfaction among a large number of civilian classes.

However, this dissatisfaction is not enough to explode so violently without anyone guiding it, but Jacobin made things worse.

The situation that caused such a chaotic situation was not Jacobin's temporary layout. As early as when Levi occupied the southwestern part of France, a large number of people who were interested in revolution were left here, and they were also the downline for the Jacobins' natural development.

During the occupation of Levi's regime, the French Revolutionary Government had been working hard to develop these underground civil forces.

Due to administrative enlightenment, the French Revolutionary Government was unable to invade the top leaders of the Li Wei regime at all, and could only develop influence among the people. This full-scale outbreak was also the revolutionary army that used all the previous revolutionary hidden background and planned to cooperate with the frontline combat.

The French Revolutionary Government was also desperate because they knew very well that under the suppression of the Black Dragon Legion, no matter how fierce the civilian movement was, or how cruel it was, in the end, it was cruel and cruel, Li Wei was not a mediocre person like Louis XVI.

After being suppressed, the backlash left by Jacobin will inevitably be uprooted, and the cities in southwestern France will become the basic base of the Levi regime like the Brittany and Normandy regions.

But in order to win the second comprehensive attack, the French Revolutionary Government could only make a one-time move. Anyway, once the second comprehensive attack fails, the French Revolutionary Government will fall into a full passiveness. What's the point of leaving behind any more backs?

It would be too difficult for Jacobin, who was left behind, to do mass work, and it would be too difficult for them to assassinate the military and political leaders of the Levi regime. At this time, we naturally have to squeeze out the final use value.

Therefore, the disgust of war, dissatisfaction with the exploitation of the Li Wei regime, and the temptation of buying zero yuan, this large-scale riot march was caused.

"Resarith, don't overestimate the garrisons that have divided the land. If they were really useful, they would have entered the standing corps long ago.

You let the Black Dragon Legion guards suppress the mob."
