"Within our Restoration Society, the political philosophy, the selection system, the punishment regulations, and so on that matter to every member of the Liberation Society must be made public. These things need to be discussed before they can be understood. As I said earlier, the Liberation Society is not a recovery meeting for one person, nor is it a recovery meeting for some people, but a recovery meeting for all our members. These matters related to the vital interests of the members of the Liberation Society and the exhibition of the members of the Liberation Society cannot be hidden. This is the basis of democracy! Do you think that's right? Wei Ze forcefully expounded his ideas to a kind of selected members of the Restoration Society, and this interest was not surprisingly supported by everyone.

Of course, there are those who say the opposite. For example, Major General Lin Asheng Lin raised a question, "You can't always take out the war and talk about it publicly, right?" ”

"Fighting the war is the job of the military department of the Restoration Society, and it is the job, not the question of the basic political power of all the members of the Liberation Society. When we don't need to fight, we can go to war for a month, or even a year, without fighting. That does not affect the work of our Restoration Society at all. But I forced everyone to accept that my relatives must be placed in important departments, and my relatives naturally have a higher status than everyone else, won't our Restoration Society be chaotic immediately? When I say that it must be made public, I mean that these latter issues, which are related to the vital interests of all members of the Liberation Society, must be made public. And not to take the secrets of the army department to make it public! So, do you understand? ”

When all the participants heard this, they couldn't help but get excited. Weeser's example is too targeted, but it's also very lethal. Because Weeser is not just talking about his own relatives, but pointing out a problem, the Restoration Society does not accept nepotism. The brothers who followed Wei Ze to break away from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom naturally agreed with this. Everyone has seen those boring and even hateful things in the kingdom of heaven, so naturally they don't want to see this kind of behavior.

As for the comrades who are new to the list, or who were formerly peripheral personnel, they naturally agree more. They have always been worried that they are not qualified enough, and they may be suppressed by their "seniors". Now it seems that Wei Ze is showing that he treats everyone equally and does not engage in extra support.

Moreover, the public meetings of the various political systems within the Restoration Society, as well as the common decisions of the various systems emphasized by Wei Ze, also made everyone feel that they had indeed received a guarantee of power. This kind of guarantee is of great significance. Of course, Wei Ze's premise is that this belongs to the "democratic mechanism within the Restoration Society", and becoming a member of the Restoration Society naturally has such political power. Although everyone instinctively thinks that the status is not high, maybe the democratic voice will be lower, but whether there is a right to speak is a fundamental question. If you don't agree with what you say, and you don't have the opportunity to speak at all, that's a world of difference.

"Resolutely support the orders of the Victors!" Someone has already begun to speak out for their interests.

Wei Ze waved his hand, "I'm going to talk about what everyone likes to hear first, so what I'm going to talk about next is what everyone doesn't necessarily like to hear." Now that there is democracy, let's talk about centralization. In this concentration, the minority obeys the majority, the lower levels obey the superiors, and the localities obey the central government. The discussion should be democratic, but once the discussion has a result, whether the result is agreed upon by everyone or not, it must be implemented in accordance with the policy. When you encounter a problem, no one is allowed to pick on it, saying nonsense like 'look, look, I said I couldn't do it a long time ago', then you have to be disciplined! Since the Liberation Society is the Liberation Society of our entire Restoration Society, no one can stand idly by! This discipline is cast from iron to steel, and it cannot be shaken in the slightest! Do you understand? ”

It's true that this centralism is something that people don't necessarily like to hear, "Why do you want to implement policies that I don't support?" "A lot of people have this idea in their heads. But these people also understand one thing, if they don't carry it out, Wei Ze will not let those people go.

Wei Ze continued, "Many things may not be able to see the results in the short term, just like Wei Changrong was in charge of the combat training department back then, and at that time, almost everyone was beaten with military sticks for training. The army was strictly controlled, and even so, there were some strange words in the army at that time, saying that our troops were 'swollen army'! All of them were swollen and spanked! ”

The newcomers didn't expect that Wei Ze's brave and combative Liberation Army still had such a history, and the veteran people themselves had participated in this process, and they had all been beaten with military sticks. Everyone laughed out loud together.

Wei Ze also said with a smile: "Now, if you let the troops not engage in combat training, the staff and officers will be the first to jump out and oppose it." In fact, the soldiers also know the importance of combat training, and if they are well trained, they have a much better chance of surviving on the battlefield. Do you think persistence helps? If we hadn't insisted at that time, we wouldn't have the iron army we have now. ”

Seeing that everyone accepted this explanation, Wei Ze continued: "Of course, the initial combat training manual has been changed more than a dozen times. Put the original one together with the latest one, and it doesn't look like a thing at all. Because in training, we are also revising the manual, and we are constantly identifying problems and correcting them. If the opponents had picked their guns and resolutely refrained from carrying out combat training, they would not have achieved what they have achieved today. In the same way, if the executor had clung to the original training manual and thought that absolutely not a word could be changed, it would not have been possible to achieve what it is today. At that time, all opinions opposing combat training were first eliminated, and then, in a scientific manner, military training was perfected and carried out, so that today's results can be achieved. Moreover, this result will also change constantly, when we use arquebuses, there is arquebus-based training, and with flint, the training is based on the conditions of the flint. Later, the fire cap gun was used, and the training was changed to training based on the fire cap gun conditions. This is the science that I will talk about later, and the question of idealism and materialism. However, democracy and centralism are indispensable, and since everyone is willing to support democracy, then I have to ask if everyone is willing to accept centralization! ”

Carrying out orders from above is a tradition in China, and an iron law in the army. Wei Ze was reasonable, so that the concentration was no longer the kind of lawless tyranny. In the end, under the leadership of Major General Lin Asheng, everyone expressed their support and agreed.

After determining this basic political organization model, at least everyone agreed when they didn't quite understand, and Wei Ze could be regarded as putting his mind at ease. He originally thought that this extremely advanced system might not be acceptable to his subordinates, but now that he looks, this is Wei Ze's worry. Although there will be problems in the implementation process, if the system itself is not correct, it will only get worse later.

After the end of the day's lesson, after Wei Ze went home, he saw that his wife Qi Hongyi began to have a hard time. She said calmly: "Official, you don't have to talk about my relatives, right?" ”

Of course, Wei Ze knew what Qi Hongyi was referring to, and he didn't pretend to be stupid, "I said madam, I'm not your family talking about it at all." In a sense, I'm giving your family the opportunity to get a status commensurate with their abilities. I clearly tell you, I hope you can go out to work, such a turbulent era, such a fierce and turbulent China, devote yourself to this era, and rely on your own ability to obtain a position corresponding to your ability. How fast! Madam, you are a capable person, I think you will definitely be able to pay homage to the prime minister at that time, and be a celebrity through the ages. But if I don't set the rules first, if you go out to work, what will people think of you and me? People must think that Governor Wei sent his wife out to be a prisoner! In a fair system, you can be treated fairly and evaluated fairly. ”

"Fair! Fair! Official, you always say that it is fair, you have given up the knife in your hand! Qi Hongyi did not get angry, but pointed out the difference between what Wei Ze did and the traditional power.

Weser shook his head, "No, I don't think so. I am now in charge of tens of thousands of people here, because I represent the interests of those tens of thousands. They have to follow me for their own benefit. Therefore, the opinions I put forward may not be understood by everyone, but I will not oppose them. Madam, you have also read so many history books, how many emperors can have such authority? Ministers, don't say that the order is forbidden, it would be good if they could not disagree! As for the Manchu Emperor Xianfeng opposite us, I don't think his policy formulation can be considered bad, but as soon as it is implemented, it will be out of shape. This shows that there is a big problem with their system! ”

Qi Hongyi shook his head firmly, "You are a person of great power!" It's not a system problem at all! ”

Wei Ze's gaze became more determined, "Madam, democracy just doesn't produce any powerful ministers. Because in a democracy, no one can have special power over others, and in this case, what I'm saying is that I can't let my relatives around me have privileges, I can't have them, can anyone else have them? On the contrary, this can let go and stifle the opportunity for the emergence of powerful ministers. I am emphasizing not only democracy, but also centralization! This is not to say that after democracy, everyone will herd sheep. On the contrary, it is precisely because of democracy that there must be a stronger sense of organizational discipline. If you want to take me off, you have to have the ability to do it! The artifact has no owner, and the virtuous and powerful live in it. I consider myself to be the best in the world, and I think I am more virtuous and powerful than others. Most importantly, I think I can represent everyone's interests, so what can I fear? There are so many dynasties that have perished, and there are even more grass-headed kings of all sizes who have been killed. If you have some power in your hands, you only want to keep it, not make progress, that is the way to die! ”

Qi Hongyi listened to Wei Ze's categorical words, and was already stunned. She stared at Wei Ze for a long time, and suddenly her eyes turned red, and tears flowed out, but Qi Hongyi wiped her tears with a smile, "Official, I have read a lot in the book if I claim to be unparalleled in the world." At that time, I thought those people were high-spirited, but when you said that, I didn't know whether to be happy or worried. This is stumped for me! ”

Wei Ze reached out and touched his wife's cheek, "Madam! There are a few ministers who died in my hands, governors and admirals, and now Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang who is waiting for death in prison, is still a genuine jinshi. As for the other civil and military officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, large and small, I can't count them myself. The group of people who followed me were not from a good background, and they were not very good according to the academic standards of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but after three or four years of hard work, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was completely vulnerable in front of us. I think you should have faith in me! ”

Qi Hongyi smiled, she wiped her tears first, and asked with red eyes: "You just said that you want me to go out to work, but I don't know what kind of job you are going to arrange for the concubine?" ”
