Ancient Rome: From Slaveholder to Supreme Emperor

Chapter 588: The Wheel of Wang Mang

It has been a hundred years since Ye Tian came to this world.

Now he is a four-star extraordinary!

I don’t know how many of the war slaves who once followed him have passed away.

However, Bardock and Caesar are still alive.

Because, with the existence of spaceships, they can follow Ye Tian to the Mayan Interstellar in the spaceship.

At that time, they have to lay down the country for Ye Tian, ​​at least they can run errands for Ye Tian.

Therefore, since the end of the war, they have been taking holy water.

Decades have passed, Ye Tian’s female warrior army has expanded to 200,000, all of them are beauties from all over the world, and even some black beauties that are rare in a thousand years, but they are very rare.

The army of monsters has expanded to 200,000, and the “540” is basically on par with the female warriors, one per person.

The rare and exotic grass space has now evolved into a huge island, all of which are planted with all kinds of rare and exotic grasses, so there is no need to worry about the holy water.

In the first year of the first year, that is, in AD 8, Wang Mang accepted the renunciation of Ru Ziying and proclaimed himself emperor, changed the country name to new, and changed Chang’an to Chang’an, creating a precedent for usurping the throne as emperor in the history of China.

After successfully usurping the throne, Wang Mang followed the precedent and patted his envoys to the Roman Empire. He wanted to continue establishing diplomatic relations with Ye Tian’s Roman Empire, and he brought a lot of beauties with him.

However, this time, Ye Tian didn’t accept the establishment of diplomatic relations, and he didn’t even meet those envoys, so he directly drove them away.

This result completely exceeded the expectations of the ministers of the new dynasty and Wang Mang, and at the same time they were also very uneasy.

This is the first time in recent decades that the Roman Empire has refused to establish diplomatic relations with them, and they are really worried that the Roman Empire will attack them.

Ye Tian naturally did not attack them, but he issued an order to expel all the merchants in the new dynasty in the Roman Empire, and recall all the merchants in the new dynasty at the same time.

For a time, Wang Mang was a little stunned.

It has been more than fifty years since he came to this world. For people of his time, it was really incredible that such a thing happened to him.

However, he quickly calmed down, and through understanding, he discovered that this era was the period of the Han Dynasty, but there were more existences in this world that he could not recognize.

That is, there is a terrible and powerful Roman Empire, not the Roman Republic, and the ruler of Rome is not the dictator Caesar, but a great emperor named Satan.

Moreover, the Roman Empire during this period was also so powerful that it annexed the whole of Africa and Europe, as well as the whole of West Asia.

The Roman Empire is called the Kingdom of God. It is said that because the Roman emperor is immortal and his face does not change, his legend has existed for at least a hundred years and is called the Roman God of War.

He found that everything in history was the same as Dahan and he knew, and the history of the whole world seemed to have changed.

Even, he personally witnessed the change of history. In history, a Roman emperor who was married to all the queens and princesses is said to have gained immortality with the Roman emperor.

What made him very incomprehensible was that the endless Roman Empire could absolutely crush the Han Dynasty in terms of population, military strength, and economic strength, and could easily annex the Han Dynasty.

But the Roman emperor did not, not only established diplomatic relations with the Han, but also offered a helping hand when the Han encountered difficulties.

Although puzzled, Wang Mang from the future couldn’t bear to see China being bullied because of its backwardness, so he wanted to change the weakening situation of the big man.

Therefore, he wants to govern and establish the perfect new dynasty in his mind.

After years of planning, he finally succeeded.

However, just when he finished his ascension to the throne, the Roman Empire cut off diplomacy and trade with his new dynasty, pushing him to the cusp of a wave.

Because of the sudden severing of diplomatic relations, the Western Han Dynasty fell into some economic difficulties, especially the interests of the gentry were dispatched.

But in any case, Wang Mang strengthened his heart, resisted the pressure, and insisted on implementing the most ideal system in his heart.

After becoming an emperor, Wang Mang couldn’t wait to implement his own policies, because he was already in his fifties and he was afraid that the time would be too late.

The first is that the land is state-owned, and private sales are not allowed. The amount of land owned by each family is capped. If it exceeds the limit, it will be confiscated and distributed to the neighbors or relatives of the landlord. Farmers who do not have land will be allocated land by the government. The lower limit of land ownership is also stipulated. supplemented by the government.

The second is to freeze the slave trade. With the natural elimination, slavery will be gradually eliminated and everyone will be equal.

The third is that everyone has to work, and the homeless will be punished, otherwise they will serve labor under the supervision of the government.

The fourth is to implement the monopoly system of salt, wine and iron ware, and the mineral resources are nationalized and mined by the government.

The fifth is to establish a government loan system. When people encounter embarrassment, they can borrow money from the national government and repay it slowly without interest.

The sixth is to implement a planned economy, with the government controlling prices to prevent rising prices and creating a gap between the rich and the poor.

The seventh is to levy income tax on various industries and commerce as a fund for the government to control the economy.

At the same time, in order to enhance the country’s combat effectiveness, he began to encourage the comprehensive development of science and support various inventions.

However, he was too hasty after all, forcibly implemented the New Deal, repeatedly changed the currency system, changed the official system and official names, and deprived the Liu nobles of their rights, causing dissatisfaction with the tyrants.

Because he looked down on the frontier vassals, he cut the king to be a marquis and imposed heavy labor, and the punishment was harsh and violent. In AD 11, the Yellow River was diverted, and the victims were everywhere.

If Wang Mang hadn’t ruled, the Roman Empire would certainly not have severed diplomatic relations with the Han Dynasty, and would have certainly aided the refugees.

Thus, the uprising broke out on 3.7.

In 17 AD, the scale of the uprising reached its extreme, and farmers from all over the country rebelled one after another, forming the Chimei and Green Forest Uprisings.

Ye Tian was the Dragon Soul after all, he couldn’t bear it anymore, he sent a large army, did not help Wang Mang suppress the uprising, and did not interfere with the entire Xin Dynasty, but only extradited countless refugees to the Roman Empire, and divided him a piece of non-fertile land, they let him Take root here.

This incident was deeply recorded by the refugees. The aftermath is called one god crossing all peoples!

This has also become one of the important documents of postmortem scholars studying the God of War.

The technology of later generations cannot be developed, but most people firmly believe in the existence of God of War.

But what is the god of war in the end? Where does it come from? But there is a huge controversy!

Because on every continent, the shadows and relics of the God of War have appeared,
