Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 41: Dealing with prisoners of war

Which expert proposed this, and everyone did not ask it very tacitly. Franz was unwilling to admit that he had proposed a "piece-rate system." People believed that he had principles and was unwilling to greedy others for their work.

In this era, the "piece piece system" is undoubtedly progressive, which can release more productivity and break the tradition of "grinding foreign workers."

We must know that in this era, capitalists used brutal methods to crack down on "foreign workers", and it was trivial to deduct wages.

More often, they suffered a severe beating while deducting their wages, and there are not a handful of workers who are killed each year.

Especially in mines, in order to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm, many times capitalists will kill chickens and tamarins to deter others from working hard.

These brutal methods are obviously impossible for the government to learn. Carl was worried that the government would directly lose money by managing the enterprise, that is, he was worried about the emergence of large-scale "grinding foreign workers."

There are also many such cases in later generations. After a state-owned enterprise with a heavy loss became a private enterprise, it reduced its staff by half and doubled its production capacity.

...

"What plans do you have for sentencing of captives?" Franz then asked.

He decisively ignored the nobles and capitalists involved in the rebellion. These people basically ran almost the same, and were caught with stupid heads with less aura.

As the leader of this rebellion, there is no need for trial at all, and when the rebellion was suppressed, it was already resolved.

It can be said that as long as the rebels are middle-level or above officers, Franz is a sharp knife, and kills first.

Except for those who did not release a shot, they took the initiative to run out and surrendered, and the other rebel leaders had a box lunch above the platoon leader.

The suppression of the rebellion killed more than 3,000 rebels. The rebel leaders who were subsequently executed also had more than 2,000 people.

There is no way. Insurgents have no human rights. As long as they are involved, the higher their status, the faster they die, but the ordinary people have not been held too strict.

Even the Artillery Party, which advocated revolution at the University of Vienna, received box lunches and the army took over the campus. There was only one result of joining the Revolutionary Party and advocating revolutionary ideas.

These orders were issued by Franz, but it is certainly not him who is the one who holds the blame. The cabinet has not yet been formed, and he issued the order in the name of the cabinet.

If historians are interested, they will find that the people who issued these orders were prime ministers, and the Crown Prince, Franz, knew nothing.

These are all minor problems. The people of Vienna were not badly affected this time. Everyone hated the Revolutionary Party and no one would sympathize with them.

"His Highness, this rebellion is too implicated, and these captives must be severely punished and unscrupulous, in order to serve the purpose and deter the country!"

Archduke Louise's eyes were red, and he said fiercely, as if he had the same hatred with these people, and he could not wait to execute them all.

Not only him, but also several other members of the Cabinet were expressions of enmity.

Needless to say, Franz also knows that there are many relatives of the old nobles, and there must be their relatives and friends in the rebellion.

If this is the case, it is not unbearable. The key is that the rebels also ransacked their home, the goods were taken away, and the loyal servants were killed.

Even the youngest son of Archduke Louis, slowed down when he escaped because of bad luck, and was attacked by the rebels. This is the main reason for his anger.

Prior to this, he also advocated betraying the party from a light hair, soothing the people, and stabilizing the domestic situation as soon as possible.

At this time, when the pain of bereavement is involved, everything is different. First, at the aristocratic conference, all the nobles who participated in the rebellion were executed. At this time, even the captives did not want to let go.

Franz was very aware of the causes and consequences of the rebellion, and he was more aware of his class position. Therefore, after catching the nobles who participated in the rebellion, he did not execute them immediately, but left them to the noble parliament.

Most of the nobles' participation in the rebellion was due to the stimulus of interests. In order to recover the losses, the most important work they did was actually burning bank data.

Not only are Austria's local financial institutions badly hit, but even the Vienna branch of international banks has not escaped.

The bosses behind these financial institutions are also the main advocates of severe punishment of the insurgents, including the Vienna court.

The profits in the financial field are so large. How could the Habsburg family as the local snakes not participate? In fact, many financial institutions in Austria have shares in the Habsburg family.

At this time, it is obviously impossible to recover the losses. For this reason, Franz was in a hurry to form a cabinet. The main purpose was to put pressure on the cabinet and prevent the nobles from getting back their losses.

After all, these were confiscated from the rebels. It was not clear who the original owner of the property was. In addition to the real property with the owner on the bright side, Franz was preparing to fill the treasury.

If he returned to the Lord, he would guarantee that all the spoils would be quickly divided up by the aristocracy, and the greedy humanity Franz was not ready to test.

Franz thought for a while and said, "It is necessary to severely punish the rebels, but most of these captives are workers. It is better to send them back to the factory to continue to create value for us.

According to the seriousness of the plot, a fine was imposed and they were allowed to go to the factory to work and pay with wages. They would not be free until the fine was paid. "

This is already the lightest punishment he can fight for. No one can live with the money, and the cabinet cannot refuse so many free labor.

"This is a good way. We can't kill all of them with so many people. It's better to make good use of the waste!" Finance Minister Carl first agreed.

With the rebellion in Vienna, there are more places where money is needed. He supports the proposals to increase fiscal revenue.

"Yes, but where are the diehards? What if they do damage in the factory?" Archduke Louis reluctantly said.

"This is simple. You can take a sitting system, divide them into groups, and let the workers supervise and report to each other. Those who report merit can reduce their sentences.

No one reported being arrested, all of them sat together, all sent to the mine. Chancellor of the Exchequer Carl sneered

Franz couldn't help but want to like it. In fact, if there were not a series of rebellions in Austria, he was ready to send these prisoners to mines and build railways.

Considering that there may be more prisoners in the future, these people are not die-hards, but also surrendered quickly under his call, so they were awarded the lightest punishment.

"If you don't have any better suggestions, then this is the thing!" Franz said calmly.
