Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country! - Chapter 465 The cultural strategy of the Duke of Idar

Yes,

In Bruno's eyes, there are actually two things about the Church of Illumination that are most troubling.

One,

It is the power behind it.

The secrets in the Ogure Desert and the whereabouts and functions of the corpses are all issues that the Principality of Idar must pay attention to and face.

And the other,

It is also the most overlooked,

It is the foundation of faith that the Bright Church has accumulated bit by bit during this long period of time.

Bruno knows very well,

The Idars can conquer vast lands with their guns.

However, if the local people's thinking cannot be changed to produce a national identity similar to that of the Idars, then the label that Idar will bear on the Principality of Idar will not be liberators or redeemers, but invaders.

so……

After several hours of talks with Sarah Coron, Bruno did not hesitate to hand over the formation of the armored brigade to the Idar Ministry of Defense.

At this moment, there is one more important thing waiting for Bruno to do it himself...

In any sense,

The Church of Illumination has existed in this land for a longer time than the history of the Norman Empire.

And for the vast majority of civilians living in this land...

Even from the moment they knew things well and knew how warm and cold they were, the Bright Church had become a shadowy existence in their lives.

I don't know since when, under the painstaking management of the Guangming Church, one after another churches under the Guangming Church have sprung up in most areas on this continent.

then……

The name of the Bright Church and its preached doctrines have gradually begun to be spread word of mouth among countless civilians.

Maybe some people don’t believe in everything the church preaches,

But they won’t have too much resistance to the church’s doctrines.

after all……

What the Bright Church describes to the civilians is an extremely beautiful afterlife.

After they have experienced the suffering of this life and endured the oppression of the nobles...

The civilians who have paid for their sins may enter the heavenly dynasty shaped by the God of Light after they die.

over there……

Common people will have dignity, happiness, and hope!

It is also by virtue of such a set of rhetoric,

In these years,

The expansion of the Bright Church in this land can be described as a fish in water.

The nobles need the comfort of the Bright Church, so that the civilians will be obedient;

The common people also need the true or false hope given by the Bright Church so that they can get some hope and comfort in their poor and embarrassing lives.

Until the Bright Church intervenes in this war...

The church has always been presented to most people in the image of a harmless little white rabbit.

Even after the Church of Illumination intervened in the dispute within the empire for no reason, and adopted Pitzman as emperor...

The reputation, believers, and influence that the church has accumulated over the years still provide it with indispensable assistance, enabling it to gain the support of a large number of civilians.

Although in the eyes of some civilians, many promises made by the church have not been fulfilled, but...the nobles will never make such promises at all! !

Although Bruno is very clear in his heart that the church is also corrupt and greedy, but...the common people don't know this, and the common people don't see it! !

They didn't know that in the eastern part of the mainland, the Principality of Idar was thriving, and the lives of civilians were still undergoing earth-shaking changes.

And even if you know...

In the hearts of civilians, the Bright Church may not be able to do that.

no doubt,

With the glorious image created over the years, the involvement of the Bright Church has brought hope to the common people.

therefore,

Countless civilians remained silent during Leyz's conscription, silently praying for the victory and arrival of the Holy Spirit Army and the Church of Light.

Culture, faith.

These inconspicuous elements in daily life have provided countless conveniences for the Church of Illumination, and also brought great obstacles to Bruno's current footsteps.

indeed,

In the original Principality of Idar, the Protestant missionary cleansing caused the power of the Bright Church to be quickly removed.

But……

When the Kingdom of Basel was incorporated under the rule of the Stuart family and was divided into several provinces...

Bruno had to face a very serious problem.

That is……

What should the members of the Bright Church who originally lived on this land deal with?

To know,

Unlike the Principality of Idar before the expansion,

Among the many provinces south of Idar, the believers of the Bright Church account for more than 30% of the total population!

And this also means...

At this moment, the number of believers in the Bright Church in the Principality of Idar has reached hundreds of thousands!

Even though Bruno is convinced that the faith of these civilians in the Church of Illumination is bound to fade over time, but... before then?

The Stuart family is the guardian of the Protestant faith, and the doctrine of Protestantism is completely contrary to the doctrine of the Bright Church.

If Bruno fails to give the correct guidance, this will undoubtedly become an extremely serious internal danger facing the Principality of Idar!

after all……

It will take time for the detonation of the indulgences. The plundering of the church in the interior of the empire has not yet reached its peak, and the disappointment of the civilians with the church also needs time to settle before Bruno can reach the level expected by Bruno.

Faith and culture...

In some cases, these things are unclear.

In the arrangement of the army, Bruno can rely on the advice of many Idar generals and officials, but in terms of faith and culture... he has to be more cautious.

As a traverser from the earth, Bruno is well aware of the influence that faith will bring to people and the changes that culture will bring to society.

so……

In order for the provinces of Basel, Goethe and other places to get rid of the shadow of the Church of Illumination as soon as possible, Bruno really made the blood this time!

Popularize nine-year compulsory education?

Feel sorry,

Bruno can't do it,

He knows this, he still has it.

On the one hand, the huge labor gap made it impossible for the Idar Principality to send countless young laborers to school.

On the other hand, it is because the external threat posed by the Church of Illumination also does not allow Bruno to put most of his Jing power on the management of the territory.

but……

Nine-year compulsory education cannot be universalized, but it does not mean letting go!

As an outstanding young man in the new era, Bruno would never be able to watch his leaders and continue the per capita cultural level of prenatal education.

Because for him, the per capita education level of prenatal education undoubtedly means his failure in the governance of the Principality of Idar!

so……

Read aloud! spell!

Perhaps today I still cannot popularize the nine-year compulsory education, but the Principality of Idar has the conditions and ability to popularize spelling and reading!

Just like before in Idar City,

He will ask all school-age children to go to community schools to learn spelling and read aloud, so that these civilian-born children can read newspapers and know how to think.

In Bruno's view, only after letting them learn more about the world and get in touch with more things than ever before, can civilians have the possibility to get rid of ignorance and learn to think and explain problems.

Thus,

Bruno can not only curb the spread of the Church of Light from the source, but also cultivate a sufficient number of reserve talents for the future Principality of Idar!

What to read aloud, what to spell, there is actually a lot of room for manipulation.

Let these youthful civilian children,

In the process of learning, it is much easier to identify with the ideals of the Duchy of Idar and support the rule of the Stuart family than to wait until they reach adulthood to teach them.

But……

anyway,

If only this is the case,

The Idar Government Affairs Office, which is so familiar with it, is completely capable of this task, and there is no need to spare Bruno to deal with these matters, and there is no need to do so.

Yes,

Bruno has to do more than simply copy the scene that was once performed in Idar City.

Admittedly,

It is a good thing to popularize reading and spelling, and children’s thinking can indeed be cultivated slowly, but...

This all takes time!

Far can't quench the near thirst,

Bruno is worried about the present!

What he worries most is those adults, those adult believers who respect the instructions of the Bright Church, and those fanatics of the Bright Church mixed in the crowd!

Will they... pose a threat to their rule over this land? Will there be any unusual moves?

Bruno’s concerns are not unreasonable.

Because the church’s hostility towards the Principality of Idar has been more than just a day or two.

Ever since Protestantism was born in this land located in the eastern part of the empire, the Church of Illumination has hated Bruno!

First, Mike’s deception,

Then there is Will Roach’s betrayal,

Then the arrest of Bishop Olsson...

The Principality of Idar seems to be incompatible with the Bright Church, which is thousands of miles away, and every move will produce contradictions and conflicts.

not to mention……

Even the Cardinal and the Church of Illumination do not know how much Bruno knows about the secrets of the church!

Just as Bruno has been sending people to inquire about news from the Church of Illumination, the Church of Illumination is also inquiring about everything that happened in the Duchy of Idar.

Because he was also uncertain, what kind of secrets were hidden behind the Principality of Idar that had quietly risen in a blink of an eye.

And now,

Bruno had only one goal,

That is to do your best to kill the hidden dangers in the bud!

to this end,

Bruno deliberately prepared two-handed thinking.

Arranged in a bright place,

Naturally, he is the little master of "missionary cleaning" in the Principality of Idar-Bishop Mike who is loyal to Bruno.

Mike's brainwashing ability is definitely one of the top in the Principality of Idar, and a talent that Bruno believes in.

But it takes time to preach and wash the ground, so...

At the same time, Bruno also prepared some other fresh things.

Aristotle once said that only magic can defeat magic.

Similarly,

Only by spreading new cultures and beliefs can the dross of the Bright Church dissipate as soon as possible.

In other words,

It is to feed those believers and common people who have a good impression of the Church of Illumination, and then they can be fully aware of...

Compared with the Principality of Idar, compared with the Protestant Church, what kind of scumbag is the true Bright Church!

It doesn't sound easy, but...

What do you say?

For a traverser like Bruno, what he lacks most is enough "jing **** food"!

Last life,

Humans on the earth have used thousands of years to create countless popular literary and artistic works.

Just picking out a few of them is enough to make the soil buns in this world pull their **** with a knife and open their eyes.

only,

Considering the shocking literacy per capita in Basel and other places...

After some careful consideration, Bruno assigned an extremely important task to the painters in the Duchy of Idar.

draw!

Draw a comic book!

nowadays,

The Principality of Idar has newspapers and magazines.

The "Idar Daily" brings the people living in this land with the latest news about various parts of the Idar Principality.

The monthly issue of "Football World" brings fresh topics after dinner and tea to the people of Idar.

But this is not enough!

Prior to this ~www.novelbuddy.com~ Idar's propaganda on the territory of the former Kingdom of Basel, such as the Goethe and Basel provinces, mostly focused on criticizing the abuse and corruption of the Basel royal family.

And now, as people gradually recognize the demise of the Basel royal family, the focus of propaganda in the Principality of Idar has reached the time to make a change!

The comic strip requested by Bruno is of course not just painting, and it is not only for entertainment, but for very realistic considerations.

Firstly,

The Basel people who live in this land don't know how to spell much, but there are a lot of people who can read pictures and talk.

The easy-to-understand existence of comic strips undoubtedly greatly lowers the threshold.

As long as there is nothing too wrong in your head, you can generally understand the meaning.

And at Bruno’s request,

The content of these comics is naturally centered on criticizing the selfishness and corruption of the Church of Illumination.

Just like some fairy tales in the previous life,

At first glance, it seems to be depicting a beautiful picture of harmony between man and nature, but if you look closely, you can experience a deeper meaning from it.

The same is true for these comic strips that were drawn by Bruno's order and will be distributed on a large scale throughout the Principality of Idar.

At first glance,

It's just a fascinating story.

However……

With the continuous development of the plot, the ugliness of the church will be revealed involuntarily by readers.

None of the pictures in the comic strip blame the church,

But the hypocrisy of the church,

But it is the deepest meaning hidden in the story, which is suddenly shocking.
