Chapter 192: Carrying on the Past and Forging Ahead (1)

The essence of traditional China is probably related to the eighteen inner provinces, Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Anhui, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, Gansu, and Ningxia. Taiwan and Qiongzhou are not considered provinces, and Xinjiang, Tibet, and Mongolia are all relatively wild areas.

Shaanxi, Gansu, and Ningxia were under the control of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the remaining fifteen provinces did not enter Shanxi for the time being. The remaining 14 provinces can basically be determined to be under the control of the Guangfu army. A regime that has seized such a large territory in more than a decade and finally been overturned has never appeared in Chinese history, and Wei Ze certainly does not want to make this first case.

Lei Hu sent a telegram asking Wei Ze when he would officially become emperor, and Wei Ze was initially unsure of what he wanted to say about the political commissar who favored the price. At least in Wei Ze's opinion, the so-called official title of emperor is a trivial matter, and it is better to honestly build the people's congress with that idle work.

The speed of the construction of the people's congress is really enough, not that some people want to get in the way, but that no one in the group in power wants to go to the people's congress. Theoretically, the National People's Congress is an organ of power, but in Chinese culture, the organ of power is an administrative body, and the current officials are in charge of things. A body that only has legislation is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from power, no matter how you look at it. Not to mention that the legislative power of the people's congress is now also carried out by the national conference of the Central Committee of the Liberation Party, and in addition to electing a group of comrades with relatively strong local appeal to take charge of the work of policy propaganda, it is really impossible to see that the people's congress is still useful.

Wei Ze thought about it, and felt that Lei Hu was really very subtle and reminded that everyone wanted to evaluate the merits.

This kind of hope is not absent in the Liberation Party, but it is becoming more and more obvious. Feudalism is like this, there is no feudal system without privileges. Everyone has worked hard to follow Wei Ze to fight the world, if you really have no privileges and no benefits after you really conquer the world, this is completely unacceptable to everyone. Of course, if he is really crowned a king and knighted, and finally a group of feudal nobles come out, Wei Ze will not be able to accept it at all.

The politics of the industrial countries are of course class rule, but the politics are always a process of compromise of interests. Even Taizu said that there is no party in the party, and the emperor thinks; There are no factions in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things. At this stage, Wei Ze suddenly realized one thing, why any era will be slaughtered, a big reason is to use the civil service system to gradually abolish the meritorious system. Sooner or later, faster or slower, this process has never been able to bypass this problem.

So in the end, Wei Ze decided to compromise for the time being and solve the internal problems of the army first. Although the Liberation Army is theoretically a people's army, and the internal political commissar system is also doing well, if the military rank system is not finally established, there will be a big problem in the army.

From this point of view, Lei Hu was no longer suitable to continue to lead the Northern Expedition. This is just like Wei Ze once killed the city of Nanjing in 1853, but he turned around and ran, not daring to take the first victory in Nanjing. This action in 1853 proved to be correct, Wei Ze gained the autonomy of the operation in Anhui, if Yang Xiuqing was not at all worried about Wei Ze, Wei Ze had to stay in the city of Nanjing. With Wei Ze's personality, God knows what bad things can happen in Nanjing.

Sure enough, when the Military Commission talked about changing the commander of the Northern Expedition, all the generals looked at Wei Ze with blank eyes. The commander of the navy is better, the navy has made great contributions in the war in the South China Sea, and he is still the protagonist of the future Dutch East Indies War. Unless the Army can develop the technology to allow the Army to walk on water, the future will not be able to run.

Now the opportunities for meritorious service on land are all in the north, and Lei Hu fought from the south of the Huai River to the north of the Yellow River, and this credit is already great enough. It is also necessary to let other brothers have the opportunity to be promoted through meritorious service.

Wei Ze was not hypocritical, and asked clearly: "I have a question for you now, how should my military rank be determined." ”

This question is to the point, everyone was stunned at first, and then there was joy on their faces. After Weeser's rank is determined, it will be the turn of the generals below,

"The Governor is naturally the Governor!"

"Cut, you've heard of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, what is the Metropolitan Governor. I think Generalissimo Zhengyi is good. ”

"I think the generalissimo is better."

"There are many people who claim to be handsome in this troubled world, does calling this a loss of our identity?"

"Comrades, we already have the rank of marshal in our existing ranks."

"You made the governor a marshal? What is your heart? ”

……

Friendly, unfriendly, unkind, step-by-step, all kinds of opinions have come out. Wei Ze summed this up, and the Military Commission's opinion is probably like this, Wei Ze must have a military rank that no one can match. And this title should be loud, majestic, and intimidating.

From Wei Ze's heart alone, he is not so trendy in this regard. Since the Liberation Army already has the rank of marshal, then Wei Ze can be completely satisfied with the rank of generalissimo. He knows that in the modern powers, the United States is the president and the commander-in-chief of the three armed services, so the United States only has a five-star Shangjiang. China is Taizu did not want the military to be in power, so he refused the title of generalissimo. The rest of Stalin was the Generalissimo.

As for Wei Ze, the current system is not so responsible at all, he is the emperor, and the title of supreme is matched with the rank of generalissimo, which is really appropriate.
