"If you want a peaceful world, then what you have to do now is to immediately disarm and suppress the military power!" Jiang Fei said.
"Ah!? Why? " Lina was dumbfounded. These soldiers had paid a huge price to win. Now, they were talking about disarming and suppressing the military power. Wasn't that like killing the donkey after the grinding was done?
"Let me tell you why we need to disarm first." Jiang Fei smiled. He could understand Lina's feelings. After all, she had lived with these soldiers for so long, and these Rebel Army soldiers had also paid a huge price to win. However, there were some things that if not done now, it would be a huge problem in the future.
"Yeah!" Lina nodded.
"Do you know how many people there are in the Gamma Space?" Jiang Fei asked.
"A few million …" Lina was not very sure. Previously, there were six or seven million people in the Gamma Space. However, after this catastrophe, it was estimated that there were only four or five million people left. A large number of people had starved to death or died in the war.
"Do you know how many troops we have now?" Jiang Fei asked.
"Four or five hundred thousand?" Lina roughly calculated.
"Yeah! It's nearly a ratio of ten to one. Moreover, we are in a state of waiting for development. We can't afford to raise so many soldiers, and it's not necessary! " Jiang Fei said. In fact, these four or five hundred thousand soldiers had not been on the battlefield. Most of them were reserves. After all, there were only so many firearms in the entire Gamma Space.
"That's true …" Lina nodded. In a situation where there was no war, a ratio of ten to one was simply insane. Not only did it waste a lot of labor, but it also caused a great burden on the people.
"So, disarmament is necessary. We have to let these laborers go back to where they belong. Only then can the whole world be revitalized," Jiang Fei said.
"Okay! I'll listen to you, but if I tell them to disarm now, will there be a backlash? "Lina said worriedly.
"Of course, we can't force disarmament!" Jiang Fei laughed. If they forced disarmament, the Rebel Army soldiers would definitely suffer. They had to pay attention to strategy.
"Okay, do as you say." Lina nodded. She did not want to care about these things. Now, she just wanted to stay by Jiang Fei's side quietly and be a little woman.
"Well, then let's talk about suppressing military power. Colonel Keno is an example. Facts have proven that it is definitely not a good way to run a country. They lack the experience to manage a country. Moreover, soldiers are often radical and belligerent. They need military achievements. When there is no war, they will create war. Therefore, it is necessary to suppress military power and let civil officials manage the army."
"Oh!" "Alright, you don't have to tell me all this. I've already said that I'll live with you in whatever kind of world you want. If you want to reduce the number of soldiers, then do it your way. If you want to suppress the military, then do it. I trust you." Lina nodded, not fully understanding what Jiang Fei meant. She then said, "Alright, you don't have to tell me all this.
"Thank you …" Jiang Fei smiled and patted Lina's head.
"En!" Lina leaned into Jiang Fei's arms contentedly. Jiang Fei's body stiffened. He wanted to push Lina away, but in the end, he did not do so.
In the next few days, Jiang Fei issued a lot of policies, including restoring financial order, stabilizing the market, and other operations. At this time, the value of the Moon Crystals that Jiang Fei had hoarded showed. With the endorsement of these hard currencies, a new financial order was quickly established.
Then, Jiang Fei began to stimulate production and encourage people to restore productivity. He also provided interest-free loans and used severance pay to encourage soldiers to voluntarily retire to do business or buy land to farm.
Most of the people who joined the Rebel Army were poor. Under the temptation of money and land, many people voluntarily retired. In the end, there were only 30,000 to 50,000 people left in the Rebel Army. It was about the same size as the previous military police. Jiang Fei organized them into professional soldiers and had them train every day. They could also receive monthly wages.
Seeing that the order in the Gamma Dimension was gradually restored, Jiang Fei waited silently. He was waiting for the hidden members of the Council of Elders to appear. During this time, Jiang Fei brought Lina to find the Consul who had become stupid. He fulfilled his promise and gave Lina a chance to kill the Consul with her own hands to avenge her father.
However, in the face of the Consul who had become a fool, Lina's heart softened. She felt that the Consul had already been punished and there was no point in killing him. So, she let the Consul go.
When Jiang Fei saw the Consul, the only thing that touched him was the advisor. Even though the Consul had become stupid and the city was in chaos, he still took care of Consul Gu. Even after Lina spared the Consul and left with Jiang Fei, he still took care of his former employer so that he could live a decent and clean life instead of dying in a corner like an ordinary fool.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a month had passed. At this time, the entire Gamma Dimension had basically returned to the right track. There were many disadvantages of a small population and narrow space, but the advantages were also obvious. That was, it was easier to recover.
At noon on this day, Jiang Fei's secretary, Anita, knocked on the door and walked in. This chick could be considered lucky. She had hooked up with a rich husband before, but before she could marry into a rich family, a financial crisis broke out, followed by military control and war. During this time, Anita's rich boyfriend's family collapsed. In the end, these great nobles even became food for Keno's military police, but Anita was lucky to survive.
When Jiang Fei rebuilt the order of the Gamma Dimension, she came back to apply for a job. Because they were all acquaintances, Jiang Fei directly accepted her as his secretary. After all, they had worked together before, so it was easier to cooperate with her.
"Boss, there are three old men who want to see you," Anita said.
"Old men? Who are they? "Jiang Fei asked.
"I don't know. They said they have something important to tell you," Anita said.
"Oh? Could it be the Elders? "Jiang Fei's heart skipped a beat, then he said to Anita," Let them in! "
"Yes! Boss! "Anita turned around and went out. Soon, she came in with the three old men.
Jiang Fei looked at the three old men up and down. From their clothes, he could tell that only one of the three old men came from a rich family, and the other two were born in the poor. Although they had gone through a catastrophe and the rich had been looted, they still had a few good clothes. As for the poor, although they won in the end, they were still very poor.
