18th century total war

Chapter 138 Too many captives
A large number of ordinary families live frugally for their children's education and even spend their money, but they still cannot enjoy the educational resources enjoyed by the children of rich families, because they are not qualified enough to even make up the entrance ticket money!

Although the nobility has been almost eliminated in the 21st century, the rich and bureaucrats have taken the place of the nobility. They still enjoy a life that is superior to others and does not require much sweat.

These people only need one sentence, and there are countless people below who are doing their best to complete it. Their children enjoy the best welfare for generations, and they look at the majority of the common people with the eyes of the servants and the poor!

This is the inevitable development trend of human society!
As for the salary you get, it’s not because you sold your dignity, it’s just your labor remuneration, but in order to keep this job and not be disgusted by your boss, you can only wear a mask.

Serving tea and handing water has become a basic etiquette in the workplace. Being humble in front of superiors has become a classic saying in the workplace, because if you don’t do it, some people will do it for the sake of life or even survival!
The nobles and kings who oppressed the common people disappeared, but capital took their place and got worse!

Because capital is invisible, most of the oppressed people don’t even know who to resist or fight with. They can only use striving to become a master as their motto in life to constantly paralyze themselves...

When they are still unable to surpass those rich people in the end, those rich children will use their full sense of superiority to enjoy the wealth inherited from their parents and step on your face and say proudly: "Our ancestors have worked hard for several generations. How could you possibly surpass this world in your lifetime?

Be a worker with peace of mind! "

An ordinary person is forced to go to work every day by his boss, and pretends to nod and bow like a grandson. Isn't he allowed to vent on the Internet after returning home?

Li Wei, who came from the 21st century, is very aware of this, so he traveled to this seemingly more backward era, and was very indifferent when facing the inequality between people in this era.

In Li Wei's eyes, the only difference between the inequality of this era and the inequality of the society in his previous life is the degree.

Because the productivity of society is highly developed in the 21st century, people will not starve to death, no matter how unfair the society is, you will still have a bite to eat.

But in this 18th century society, the productive forces were not developed enough, so inequality would starve people to death!

Jorgen passed away in his ideal country. His dream was beautiful, but it was destined to never be realized. This is the bad root engraved in the bones of human beings.

Because people's vanity and ambition are endless, when a person reaches a certain height, even if he is just better than the people around him, he can't help but show off himself or even bully others!
Class reunions after entering society have witnessed too many of this reality.

Why should the law crack down on the social ethos of flaunting one's wealth?
It is precisely because this kind of social atmosphere reveals the hidden bad qualities of human beings that it can easily arouse public outrage!
It's like, you can do many things, but you must never say them, otherwise you will easily become the target of public criticism.

With Jurgen's death, the sharpshooter never showed any signs of loss, and killed the last recalcitrants who lurked one by one.

If you want to be a sneak attack sharpshooter, you must at least be at the level of an elite veteran like Russell.

A few days later, in the barracks behind the intercepting troops on both sides, Bohr inspected the increasingly crowded prisoner-of-war camp with a sad face.

For brainwashed officers and soldiers with few facial expressions, if a sad look appears on their face, it is obvious that the problem has developed to a serious level.

"Oh, I'm really sorry. I didn't expect this before. This was a mistake on my part."

This time, Bolcha, who was in charge of commanding and intercepting the enemy armies on both wings, bowed to the subordinate officers in front of him with a very sincere apology.

Bolcha's apology was not at all contrived, because although the battle to intercept the Two Wings Legion had achieved a brilliant victory, it was precisely because the victory was too brilliant that the number of people killed was far less than those who surrendered, which caused the prisoners of war to be on the verge of dying. Eat the rations of the soldiers of the Black Dragon Legion!
But their troops are originally small. Once too many troops are allocated to escort prisoners of war to the rear, based on their current depth, it is estimated that they will lose these troops escorting prisoners of war for a long time, which is equivalent to weakening their own military strength!
"Sir, our enemy's morale is low now, and they have stopped advancing. Everyone's eyes are on the decisive battle between the central army and Arno. It doesn't matter if we send some troops to escort the prisoners back to the base camp."

A major suggested in a gentle tone.

"However, if we do that, even if we can complete the combat mission of intercepting both wings, we will not be able to allocate excess troops to support General Karl."

Borcha was very ambitious. On the basis of completing his own mission, he wanted to deploy some troops to act as surprise troops, so that Major General Karl's side could win more easily and reduce his own battle losses.

According to information received from various sources, the morale of the Marseille Legion is frighteningly high.

Moreover, through the interrogation of the prisoners of war, Boercha and his party also learned that the four legions surrounded by the two wings of the detour were all reorganized and "picked out" troops.

Those veterans with strong revolutionary intentions and war experience were all retained by Arnault and reorganized into the Second Army of the Southern Army.

Arno's self-supporting First Army of the Southern Army is the Marseille Army!

The morale and combat experience of these two legions are higher than those of the four legions responsible for outflanking.

It's a pity that Bolcha has no choice now, he can't kill all these valuable prisoners of war labor.

What's more, these people may become their comrades in arms in the future!

In addition, Li Wei has always strictly prohibited large-scale unreasonable killings of prisoners, so as to prevent the hostile French soldiers from surrendering when they attack the French army in the future, and they will fight to the end with themselves...
