Chapter 640 Abolition of Caste System
Before Cao Bianjiao went to visit the Coconut Tribe, he had prepared tough measures. After all, he was a general and highly respected force.Originally, he planned to take the Coconut Tribe for his own use in a peaceful way, but when he arrived at the Coconut Tribe, he gradually discovered that the Coconut Tribe had its own system. Taking advantage of the chaos, they killed a group of nobles from the coconut tribe.

The Coconut Tribe has never seen such a ruthless person. When the army was overwhelmed and the leader was killed, the Coconut Tribe had to surrender to Cao Bianjiao and his party, who had only more than 20 people.Although the Ruan family conquered the Vijaya area, they did not dare to use such a strong method against the coconut tribe, which is very powerful in the Vijaya area, so the coconut tribe still formed its own system.Only this time, they were faced with the choice between surrender and survival.

"My lord, you are too fierce. You are not afraid of the people of the Coconut Tribe at all. I think they are all scared." The local Han interpreter saw the people of the Sixth Corps marching into the village of the Coconut Tribe. His eyes already seemed to be looking at a great hero.

Going alone with more than 20 such heroes to the coconut tribe and beheading its leader can last more than ten years.

"These people are too ungrateful. If we don't uproot their aristocratic influence as soon as possible, we will cause harm to the Chief Secretary of Cochin in the future." Cao Bianjiao threw the musket back to his guards and wiped the blood on his boots .

"Yes, most of these nobles are Brahmins of the highest caste. They are used to being domineering and domineering. They thought that we should follow their rules. We deserve to die!" said the local Han people.

"Order the abolition of the caste system of the Coconut Tribe, and the land owned by the nobles will be distributed to the common people on a head-to-head basis. [-]% of the property of these nobles will be confiscated to help the military." After Cao Bianjiao killed the group of nobles, he thought it would be better to break the jar Wow, the reform of the Champa Kingdom started with the Coconut Tribe, killing chickens and monkeys to see if other tribes dare to resist the management of the Chief Secretary of Cochin in the future.

The ferocious soldiers of the Kyushu Army broke into the houses of the Brahmins and Kshatriyas of the Coconut Tribe, and they still rummaged through the boxes. Sure enough, they found a lot of good things. They stared at the low-level castes who were watching outside with gold, silver and jewelry.They know that the people of the upper caste occupy the best resources of the coconut tribe, but because the caste system exists, they take it for granted.But after seeing so many treasures copied from the homes of people of high caste with their own eyes, their beliefs were gradually eroded by the golden light and silver light, and a crack was gradually eroded. Life?

And the most important thing is that some of them witnessed the so-called high caste being slaughtered by more than 20 people of the Kyushu Army like pigs and dogs, and the survivors knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy from the Kyushu Army.In their belief, suffering in this world is for the purpose of becoming a high-level caste in the next life, but even if it is a high-level caste, so what?Wasn't he trampled on the ground by the Kyushu army?
"Bring all the high-ranking castes to the stupa, and the rest of the castes will also go together, register and register, and anyone who registers and registers will be given the land." The local Han people shouted from top to bottom in the village.

For a while, the temple of the Coconut Tribe was overcrowded. Thousands of people from the Coconut Tribe gathered here, and their heads surged.The top Brahmins and Kshatriya nobles were escorted to the temple by the soldiers of the Sixth Corps, and knelt before the crowd.As the local Han people said, these people are used to being domineering, and now they are captives, and they can't help being ashamed of being embarrassed in front of the lower castes in the past.

Cao Bianjiao's military boots made a crushing sound on the stone steps, which made the prisoners terrified, and their foreheads were covered with sweat.In their eyes, this general of the Kyushu Army is a murderous devil without blinking an eye!
"I plan to abolish the caste system. From then on, the Coconut tribe will no longer have the distinction of caste, but the unified Chinese surname will be given to everyone, and everyone is equal. Do you have any objections?" Cao Bianjiao paced in front of these kneeling captives, every step It's like stepping on their hearts, making them tremble with fear.

Some of the captured nobles were still dissatisfied with this, but just as they made trouble, Cao Bianjiao signaled to the surrounding soldiers, and those people were shot dead on the spot!

Bang bang bang!The gunshots rang out, and the captured nobles and onlookers covered their ears in fright. The gory scene of blood splattered made the faces of the coconut tribe turn pale.

The high castes that were once revered are no different from the lower races, they are all a shot.

"Does anyone have an opinion?" Cao Bianjiao, who suppressed the Coconut Tribe with iron and blood, looked around the crowd, and no nobleman from the Coconut Tribe dared to resist.They were also a little innocent, they obviously did nothing, but the bald old man and more than 20 nobles representing them rejected the request of the Kyushu Army for help, and were dragged out by the Kyushu Army to show the public.

"Today, anyone who registers can get land, and these fields are given by people of high caste. In the future, you can freely intermarry, and everyone is equal in status. You must pay taxes and respond to corvee." Cao Bianjiao Zhujian Look around the commoners and slaves, and announce such great changes to them.

But unlike Cao Bianjiao's expected cheers, these lower-caste clansmen were more bewildered, as if they didn't know how to enjoy the land even if they were given it.

"They have been bound as slaves by the caste system for too long, so that their servility is so deep that they won't be able to recover for a while." The local Han people whispered to Cao Bianjiao.

"Yes." Cao Bianjiao was very helpless towards these people.

The caste system has been ingrained here for hundreds of years, and even Cao Bianjiao cannot reverse it by force. They can only wait for the people of the lower castes to get the land and realize the value of equality before their backbones straighten up.

After Cao Bianjiao suppressed the Coconut Tribe by force, he plundered the property of many nobles, and forcibly divided the fields to low-level surnames, and finally left a team of [-] people to supervise.In addition, he also recruited [-] people from the Coconut tribe to conquer the last Bintonglong area of ​​Champa in the south.

The fleet commander Deng Qianlong of the Nanyang Fleet, which was temporarily moored in Zinai Port, heard that Cao Bianjiao had attacked the Coconut Tribe, and he didn’t react violently. Let’s use force. We transported the Sixth Corps to the Port of Zinai and entered the original northern part of the Champa Kingdom. It’s time to start our own combat goals, and immediately set off for Priango in the Chenla Kingdom.”
