Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 557 The way out for the low caste
Forming a Sikh Infantry Regiment, Jat Infantry Regiment, etc. will not produce any real help to the entire war, but Bai Mingxiu hopes that in this way, these Indian nations will strengthen their sense of identity with Ming Dynasty .

Follow Ming to overthrow Mughal and other forces, let them have the consciousness of being a part of the empire, and they will get a far better quality of life than under Mughal rule, which will better bond the Indian society of Ming , Let this joint propaganda and comfort leader be more united and harmonious.

Bai Mingxiu didn't pay anything of substance. The Indian Joint Propaganda and Consolation Experience is a relatively complicated environment, with many ethnic groups and each has its own merits.Take the current Bengal Consolation Division as an example, although the Bengalis are the most important, there are other ethnic groups in this Consolation Division, and their way of life and personal rights are also respected.

Although the main ethnic group of the Xuanwei Division may be Bengalis, they are not the main ethnic group of the empire, so they are no different from other ethnic groups in principle. During the 20 years of governance, a group of Indians with loyalty and affection for Ming Dynasty emerged. Bai Mingxiu was very satisfied with this, and also admired Wu Min's governance level.

In the streets and alleys of Dhaka, a series of recruiting advertisements for soldiers appeared almost overnight. Local Chinese and Bengali newspapers also published notices on the expansion of the Bangladesh Army on almost every important page. During this period, Dhaka and even the whole of Bangladesh were shaken.

The most famous university in Dhaka Prefecture, and even the first-class university "National Western University" that can be ranked among the top ten in the whole country of Ming Dynasty, the students are talking about the new situation.

"It seems that a war is really going to happen. I don't know who the opponent will be." The new generation of college students in Bangladesh is very different from their elders. Just like the local side of Ming Dynasty, the Bangladeshi youths receiving higher education are the best , the most outstanding young people, and most of them are very worldly.Most of the students' families at the National Western University are very prominent, either high-ranking officials in the Department of Propaganda and Consolation, or extremely wealthy.

"Who else is there, it must be to fight the Mughals." Some young people were very excited.

Almost all the upper-class people in Bangladesh, even elite intellectuals and young people like them, regard themselves as civilized Ming people and look down on their distant relatives and neighbors very much.Daming really has too many things to boast about, and the actual quality of life in Bangladesh is better than that in large areas of India.

Some Bangladeshi youths will enter the Propaganda Department after they complete their studies, and a very small number of outstanding people may be selected to work in the mainland or other colonies, which means that Ming has recognized their strength.However, most young people may only be able to develop in the Bangladesh Propaganda Department throughout their lives, and the stage is limited.

The young people here know that if Ming really takes down the Mughals and the subcontinent, then Bengal, which has been part of Ming for 20 years, will be the bridgehead for Ming to control the entire India, and the Bengalis will also have a higher status.They may be selected to go to other Indian cities or even become high-ranking officials in other propaganda departments.Those who do business and open factories will also have a larger market.

After all, they all grew up learning the theoretical knowledge of Ming Dynasty. They knew that in the process of reshaping India, Ming Dynasty would definitely attack the caste, make drastic reforms, and carry out various necessary infrastructure construction by cultivating the Indian market. To finally revitalize the Indian region's economy, and it's a thrill to think about the size of the opportunity.

A student asked: "Mostak, don't you really want to join the army? This is a good opportunity, haha. As a student of Western University, if you go to the army, you will definitely be directly promoted to an officer."

The faces of the other students were more or less teasing and mocking. The Mostak facing them was different from some of their more prominent students, and he was indeed a child from a poor family.Mostak is a low caste whose family works very menial jobs in Dhaka.He entered the school entirely because Dhaka began to popularize education and make it compulsory for schoolchildren to enroll.However, in school, Mostak showed his talent. Without any help, he was admitted to Western University, the most outstanding university in Bangladesh, with relatively excellent grades.

But after all, most of the students in the school are children from relatively well-off families and high status. They must look down on the low-caste students in the school.Because Bangladesh has abolished the caste system, it is even more strictly forbidden to discriminate against lower castes in public. Many schools have punished those involved for violence against lower castes.So even though these senior disciples looked down on Mostak in their hearts, they didn't dare to say it clearly.

Mostak knows what's going on. He has felt inferior for more than ten years, but as he grows older and more experienced, Mostak gradually has his own ideas.

His father was one of the most menial laborers on the street, and now he needed his scholarship to finance the family expenses.It is impossible for him to obtain any resources and reuse them after entering the government, and it is even more impossible to do business. He does not have such capital.Therefore, Mostak hopes to join the army. Whether it is the regular army of the Ming Dynasty or the feudal army, there is a preferential enlistment policy for college students. After deliberation, they can directly enter the army as an officer.The military's promotion system is relatively fairer than that of the Xuanwei Division. Mostak believes that as long as he performs well, he will definitely be able to stand out.

"I have applied to the school for a suspension of study, ready to respond to the country's call and join the army."

What he said was in Chinese. Many courses in Western universities are taught in Chinese, and they are taught directly by professors from the mainland.However, in private, ordinary students still use Bengali more, and Chinese is mostly used in more formal occasions.

A young man like Mostak knows that his future depends on the Ming Empire, so he works hard to learn Chinese, and his Chinese attainment is also very high.

A classmate smiled and said, "Then congratulations, student Mostak, I hope you can enjoy your time in the army."

These high-school children definitely don't like the way of being a soldier. They may enter some important department of the Xuanwei Division as soon as they graduate, and they may be in their early years within a few years. In the future, they may even have the strength to compete for the senior management of the Xuanwei Division. After all, more than [-]% of the leadership of the Department of Propaganda and Consolation are now Bangladeshi natives.Being a soldier is hard and tiring, really stupid.
