Chapter 1455: Form a police force

In fact, Marin is still stingy. The original Lincoln in history was called generous. His "House Law" promulgated in 1862 was just a generous.

The Homestead Act stipulates that any U.S. citizen who has reached the age of 21, or a foreign youth who meets the naturalization requirements, can receive free or pay a $ 10 registration fee to obtain no more than 160 acres of western state land as a share. After cultivating for 5 years, or living on the house for half a year within 5 years and paying a fee of US $ 1.25 per acre, the land received will belong to him ...

160 acres! If every acre is equal to 6 acres, that is 960 acres, or a difference of 40 acres is 1,000 acres. Resting in ancient China, it can barely be called a landlord. The landlord of Sichuan and Sichuan has become a legend with more than 10,000 acres. One thousand acres of land is also considered to be number one. Marin remembers that in the village where he lived in his previous life, before the merger of the villages and towns, the arable land in the village was 1,400 mu.

In other words, the land given to the labor force willing to go to the west by the "Homestead Land Law" is almost catching up with the arable land of a small village. How cool is it for a person to monopolize the arable land of a village?

It's just that the actual situation is that those western states are not the "land without land" that Lao Mei said, but the land of the Indians.

And this deadly president Lincoln, who was blown to heaven by the old and the beautiful, did not know how many Indians were killed by this "House Law".

You know, those so-called immigrants all went west with guns. Throughout the westward movement, Americans slaughtered more than one million Indians.

Even after the American Civil War, a large number of veterans happened to do nothing. As a result, Lao Mei organized these veterans to wash the Indian villages in the western region one by one. Men and women, young and old, one kills all ...

And all this is precisely the same Lincoln who pretended to be compassionate and sympathetic to the slaves ...

On the one hand, he liberated the 4 million black slaves in the south, but on the other hand, he made out the "House Law" which lacked virtue, resulting in the killing of millions of Indians ...

How to say, this man is dead. After all, the 4 million southern slaves he rescued were not in danger of life, and at most they were not free. But his move led to the slaughter of the entire Indian village ...

Therefore, his assassination was considered good. According to his crimes, it is not too much to be punished!

Of course, the later generations are the world's eldest, and they have the dominance of public opinion. Hollywood also desperately preached to the executioner president, which caused future generations to think that this demon is a saint ... really funny ...

...

However, Marin is not a good person. Although he despised Lincoln's character, Marlin understood that this was the best way to seize land from the Indians ...

That is thousands of acres of land, almost given away in vain! How many farmers can withstand this temptation?

Therefore, we saw in the western movies that the immigrants all went west with guns. The most classic image of those western cowboys is horseback riding, carrying a revolver. When I saw the "evil" Indians, I raised my hand ... Then, I peeled off my scalp to receive the reward ... After receiving the reward, I went to occupy the land of others ...

Not to mention these old and beautiful immigrants, even the peasant Chinese peasants who are docile, will be crazy under this stimulation. The most typical example is the development of the island by the Hans. At that time, the land on the island of Taiwan was all indigenous people, and the Han people ran over later.

Not to mention that the land on the western coastal plain was mainly captured by the Dutch and the Ming and Zheng armies. Most of the eastern coastal areas were captured by the Han immigrants themselves.

For example, the Lanyang Plain in the northeast of Taiwan Island is a coastal plain that is very suitable for farming. At the beginning, the Karmaran people lived here. The Han immigrants entered here in about 1796, but a few decades later, the Gamalans, who were once five or six thousand, were forced to move elsewhere. No way, the Lanyang Plain is too suitable for planting rice, and Chinese immigrants are fancy here. Although the Han people are usually very gentle, once the land is involved, they are crazy. As a result, the Kamarans who once killed the Spanish colonists and dared not land were killed by seemingly tame Han farmers ... not to mention the subsequent "hit X-trench and divide the cultivated land" Dividing the land, the originally weak peasants immediately broke the table, and everyone dared. Jiang Bald does not give land? Okay, I went to Taiwan Island. American? I also went back ... As long as the land is mentioned, the peasants can turn into superhumans ...

In the future, if Marin wants to seize more American land, sooner or later he will come to this step. Therefore, the "Homestead Law" is bound to be applied in the future, which belongs to Marin's reservation. When the eastern region is almost occupied by the North Sea State, this devilish "Homestead Law" can almost be released ...

However, compared to the bearded president, Marin still feels more civilized. Why? Because the times are different!

The 16th century in which I live is a brutal age in itself. The slaughter and plundering of indigenous people is nothing but normal operation. Not to mention the massacre of indigenous people, the religious wars, like the Germans, were massacred. After the entry of the Manchu Dynasty, the Han people were slaughtered ...

Lin Beard is different. He is a man in the 1860s. At that time, Europe and the United States had entered the age of civilization, and the Geneva Convention of 1864 aimed at protecting civilians and war victims came out in 1864. At this time, Lin Dabei also came up with this kind of genocide, which is definitely a beast ...

Different times have different judgment standards. Just like Manqing and the little devils, Manqing slaughtered the people in the barbaric era, and Little Japan slaughtered the people in the civilized 20th century. Although there were more massacres in the Qing Dynasty, judging from the barbarism, it must have been more brutal. Because the background of the two is completely different. A country that has slaughtered civilians in the era when the Geneva Conventions have been around for decades can only be beasts. Moreover, Japan was at that time, it is impossible not to know this convention.

...

Of course, those who are right or wrong Malin do not want to comment. Because in this time and space, these have not happened yet.

In addition, regarding the issue of the job field, Marin intends to postpone implementation. This group of 320 surviving old brothers, he does not intend to take back their job fields, but allows their children and grandchildren to inherit.

Mainly, this group of older brothers Marin had different feelings towards them. The other thing is that Shida ’s idea came only after Schwartz had allocated the land, and he could not overturn the original decision. This explanation is also reasonable ...

...

In addition to the problem of dividing the field, the reason why Marin hastily came to Schwartz is actually a very important thing. That is-Marin wants to form a police force ...

what? You said that there are already sheriffs in the rural areas of Beihai, and no police are needed?

wrong! The sheriff system is inherently backward. Because there is only one sheriff ...

Yes, village sheriffs often have one sheriff in a town. As for how the sheriff handles the case? Others are not fighting alone, but will recruit a few local unemployed homeless people or even fooling around as their "helpers." Of course, there are also some help from my brother.

Then, when dealing with cases, the only sheriff in the town, surrounded by his own brothers or helpers, came into power to scare the gangsters ...

The brothers and helpers of these magistrates are obviously not regular policemen. Because, the biggest characteristic of these people is that they are bullying and being afraid of being tough. If such a person is on the battlefield in wartime, it will definitely be behind ...

As a result, Marin sometimes recruited the sheriff's mounted police and could only recruit the sheriff himself. Their help is basically waste ...

Therefore, Marin only planned to form a police force to replace the original sheriff and a group of modest helpers who were bullying and afraid.

And how is it organized? Marin hadn't thought of it. But taking advantage of the opportunity of the 320 old brothers to retire, Marin suddenly thought-since this group of old brothers have retired, why not arrange them to form police teams everywhere?

These old brothers are at least a 25-person squad leader and have extensive training experience. If devolved to serve as a sergeant in various townships and towns, it is entirely possible to recruit a group of local youths and train a police force that can be pulled out to fight during the war.

Don't have too many people, 320 old brothers, each train a small team (25 people), this will not come out of 8000 troops? Once there is a war, you can pull it out and use it ...

what? You say there are too many police officers in a small town?

Well, there is nothing wrong with this, it is indeed a bit much. However, Marin ’s real intention was to use the opportunity of forming a police force to secretly hide a second-line force in the civilian sector. Waiting for the war, don't you expect them to go south and go to war, at least to protect their homeland? In this way, Marin can rest assured that he will lead his army to fight in the south!

Moreover, these 320 old brothers are just the first batch of sergeants arranged by Marin. After the second and third batch of veterans are discharged, they can continue to arrange for the sergeant. Marin's ultimate goal is to hide a police force of 10,000 or 20,000 in the private sector.

Of course, there are certainly not so many on the establishment. Usually, these sergeants assigned to various townships ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ will only bring 5 police officers to the police. However, they can train more people during the agricultural slack season and train at least 25 young men. When it was okay, only 5 people were brought to the police. When manning the sheriff, you can pull out another 20 people.

And the 20 reserve police officers, Marin also gave a very Chinese title-auxiliary police ...

In other words, these sheriffs usually keep the five most elite members as official police officers. For the other 20 people, their identities are auxiliary police.

The regular police officers are busy with security all day long, but the auxiliary police are different. They usually do farm work at home as usual and receive the materials distributed by the manor. However, when the farm was idle, they were recruited into the police force for training and training in combat skills. These people don't have to pay full salary, they just need to give more benefits to be able to pass. After all, do they usually have supplies allocated in their respective estates?

In this way, as long as 400 sheriffs are sent out, Marin can form a police force of 10,000 people. Spread 800 sheriffs to go out, you can get 20,000 police units. Moreover, it doesn't have to be maintained like the 6 big legions. In addition to the fact that only one-fifth of the regular police officers need to be paid, other auxiliary policemen only need to issue some material benefits. For example, the salt water fish, sugar cane, canned food and so on generated during the holiday season are enough to kill. After all, these people are not the old-fashioned civic grandfathers of the later generations, only the serfs in the 16th century. It's a big profit if you can reward some welfare materials ...

...

In this way, Marin can not only quietly hide a large second-line police force among the people, but also strengthen the war. Moreover, this old brother's ability has not been wasted. After all, they are only about 45 years old, and it is still early to retire. The township sheriff who worked him for more than ten years is not a waste of their skills (Marin wanted to exploit them to grow old) ...
