Chapter 186: Internal and External Transformation (9)
Qi Rui and the others were arranged to go north with the headquarters of the Hokkaido Army, and the operation officially began on the planned date. Under the cover of elite troops, the military headquarters, which were not too large, opened their garrisons.
"Why haven't I seen you talking lately?" Li Yannian asked Qi Rui beside him as he walked.
Qi Rui replied calmly: "I don't know what to say." β
This reason is really sufficient, Li Yannian couldn't find a suitable response for a while. In the past few days, not only Qi Rui, but everyone has not been able to find a suitable problem for the time being. Li Yannian and others were very puzzled that they could persuade the Hokkaido Army to choose to move north. Intermediate cadets are not hairy boys who pass exams in their teens to become military cadets, these people are in their twenties and thirties. Before becoming a cadet, the military rank was at least from major, and it was not uncommon for lieutenant colonel to be. Let this gang be unfamiliar, and in a sense they are still in a competitive relationship. Everyone knows that there are some things that cannot be asked at all, and even if they do, they may not get an accurate answer. What's more, the leader hasn't spoken yet, and it's not the turn of the students below to say so much.
Li Yannian and Qi Rui were relatively familiar, and he really couldn't help but come over to ask. Seeing that the first topic fell to the ground, Li Yannian simply talked about the issues he cared about, "How did these people in Hokkaido figure it out?" β
"I don't know. It's certainly not because of me anyway. Qi Rui replied.
Li Yannian laughed at such a modest answer, "Haha, don't be kidding, after you told them about that, they went north, if you say that there is no relationship with you, who will believe it?" β
Qi Rui's mood was stable, and he smiled slightly, "Lao Li, if you see a person jumping for rain, and then it's raining." Do you think it's the rain that the one who danced the god begged for? It's raining when the Hokkaido Army goes north, and I'm the one who jumps the gods. If you really think that I am asking for the rain, I have nothing to say. β
Such an answer was quite philosophical, and Li Yannian couldn't say anything for a while. He thought for a moment in surprise before continuing, "Do you think they have decided to retreat before?" β
Qi Rui nodded, "At least some people have decided to retreat with a firm attitude, and there is no time for them to continue to discuss blindly." Now it is clear to the Hokkaido side that the war has been a bad battle, and it is probably the best option to break away from the front and regroup. β
This is just the most basic strategic judgment, and Li Yannian certainly understands what Qi Rui said. What Li Yannian couldn't let go of was Qi Rui's self-positioning on this matter. Just like Qi Rui's analogy, if there is a drought in a place, the god who dances the great god really comes to a crazy dance and the rain pours down. Naturally, the gods have the right to be rewarded. But according to Qi Rui, it will rain if he can't jump this god, so where is Qi Rui's credit?
Thinking of this, Li Yannian smiled and said, "Qi Rui, you are humble enough. β
"That's right, it's not appropriate to be too modest. It's as if you don't have much credit for it. Ma Xiaoming, who was next to him, also interjected after listening. Qi Rui can be modest, but the comrades around him can't be humble. No matter how the Hokkaido Army is operated internally, and what kind of discussion it has undergone. For the Liberation Army, the purpose of these cadets was to get the Hokkaido Army north, and in fact, the Hokkaido Army was going north at a fairly fast pace. The merits of the stage have been made. With credit, there must be a division of labor, Qi Rui said it so lightly, aren't you ready to let the brothers divide the labor?
Qi Rui saw these things clearly, and he smiled: "I'm talking about doing things, and the Hokkaido Army's choice to go north is definitely not pushed by me alone." As for merit, that's a matter for leaders. I can still be better than the leader, give myself a sure evaluation of what credit is not successful? β
At this time, Li Yannian and Ma Xiaoming both chose to remain silent for the time being, while several other students leaned towards Qi Rui. Everyone hasn't talked to Qi Rui much in the past few days, just because everyone knows what they want to say, but they don't know how to talk to Qi Rui. If Qi Rui is now complacent and says, "It's all my credit that the Hokkaido Army can go north", then everyone really has nothing to say to him. Qi Rui put his position very right, and his evaluation of his role is also very pertinent. This is the basis for a discussion on the division of work.
Dividing work is a very personal thing, basically a zero-sum game. That's all the credit, and one more piece for one person means one less for everyone else. Qi Rui is right, this is a matter of leadership uniformity. However, there are many factors that determine the judgment of the leader, and if Qi Rui can skillfully apply his performance in the meantime, he will certainly have a reason to get more rewards. Just like the parable of the dancing god, if the person who pays for the god to dance the god does not believe that the crazy dance of the god is useful, then there is no such thing as dancing the god at all. Since someone comes out to jump, it means that someone who has the resources must think it's useful to jump out.
This kind of weird low air pressure made Qi Rui feel uncomfortable for a while, and he knew very well what these colleagues and students were looking forward to. That's the credit. In intermediate training, if you can meet the standard, you have to upgrade to a level, but it is not so simple to achieve the standard. These students who came together were appointed to work, so they naturally had the possibility of reaching the target earlier. The result of the Hokkaido Army's northward march was a credit that everyone hoped would be a cornerstone of their future promotion. It's easy to understand the eagerness.
Thinking of this, Qi Rui suddenly felt that he was too naΓ―ve, just as Li Yannian said, "modest enough". Qi Rui now thinks that he can figure out the basic truth, can't these fellow students think clearly? With the strategic literacy of these people, would they think that Qi Rui alone could move the upper echelons of the Hokkaido Army? If Qi Rui believes it, it can only be said that Qi Rui is too naΓ―ve. Now everyone is worried about what Qi Rui is doing in it, and taking all the credit on himself.
After figuring out this section, Qi Rui said in a voice that only these student colleagues around him could hear: "Comrades, brothers. I'm not going to put me in the wrong place. If the leader asks me, I will also tell the leader what I say to you now. I'm just a member of the team, and all the credit goes to the whole team. β
Some things can only be said here, and Qi Rui doesn't want to say too much. Unexpectedly, after saying this, Qian Duo smiled and said: "Don't worry, we all understand this." Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and said: "Actually, I think we should worry that the leader should not take away all the credit." β
"Haha", "hehe", "hehe", all the students laughed. Most of the money is telling the truth, and the students attach great importance to merit, can the leaders avoid vulgarity? If the leader can give all the credit to himself, everyone does not think that the leader will really give it away so selflessly. After all, it is the leaders who hold the power to share the merits, not these students who work under them.
Qi Rui also laughed a few times along with Hehe, but what he thought of at this time was his father Wei Ze. In terms of leadership power, Weeser undoubtedly stands at the pinnacle of power. Qi Rui now found that he didn't understand what kind of person his father Wei Ze was. He is a father who loves his children, and he is a very serious and capable homeschooler. In addition, Qi Rui's evaluation of what his father can do is probably only an empty sentence "for the country and the people".
Not long after the fall of the Manchu Dynasty. Qi Rui was born when the Manchus still occupied a large area north of the Huai River, and most people at the time considered the Manchus to be orthodox. The people also recognized the arrogance of the Manchu officials and the untouchable prestige of the Manchu emperor. In the eyes of the people, kneeling to the emperor and kowtowing to officials is a matter of course. Humility towards those rulers was the duty of the people, and this was not only the custom in China at that time, but also in Japan, and it was clear how deeply rooted this thinking was.
However, it was only twenty years before the prostration was canceled. With the development of the productive forces, the atmosphere of society has also changed. All of this is something that Qi Rui's father, Wei Ze, is committed to promoting. Qi Rui felt that everything he got was what he deserved. Now Qi Rui found that he could be rewarded with this level of work, which was a miracle in normal human thinking.
As Qian Dazhong said, if the leader really wants to take these credits for himself, he can take these credits for himself. This is a perfectly normal thing. What is abnormal is that these students dare to say this and laugh like this. Because everyone thinks that this is not right, everyone believes that since they have worked hard for this job, they should be entitled to a share of the reward. It's not surprising to think so, but it's the biggest abnormality to take it for granted. Because the system of the Republic of China is a system that supports the cultivators to have income and the laborers to share their merits. But it is too easy to destroy this system, and Qi Rui himself can come up with many ways to destroy this system and give himself the credit.
Qi Rui also found that he did not agree with this.
As Wei Ze's son, he is the son of his mother Qi Hongyi. Qi Rui didn't have the idea of inheriting the throne of his father Wei Ze. However, how to inherit the throne is a very inexplicable topic for Qi Rui, and he has accepted a point of view from his father Wei Ze since he was a child, "It's shameful to get something for nothing." Therefore, Qi Rui hopes to establish the same credit as his father Wei Ze, and then naturally take over the power in his father's hands.
After this incident, Qi Rui's mentality has changed, and he feels that he can finally look at the problem from the perspective of the successor of his father's thoughts. This action, which was supposed to pull in the relationship between father and son, caused more confusion for Qi Rui. finally looked at the problem from the perspective of "Qi Rui is Qi Rui" instead of "Qi Rui is Wei Ze's son". Qi Rui suddenly discovered that his father, Wei Ze, had created an unimaginable feat. Not to mention being on a par with his father, let alone surpassing his father Wei Ze. Just wanting Daddy Wei Ze's work to continue to operate, Qi Rui felt that it was completely beyond his ability.
Power is power, and power can decide too much. The leader can decide the fate of his subordinates and can decide the mode of distribution. Those in positions of rank who choose to obey the system will only receive their own gains according to the rules of the system over which they have no control.
However, this seemingly supernatural power itself is not as glamorous as it seems. The Manchu Qing Dynasty was once extremely arrogant and was recognized as the imperial court. But when power fell to the ground, they couldn't even save their own lives, and they were even scolded to the point of being useless after death.
Qi Rui now has to admit that his father Wei Ze, as the founding emperor, is already powerful beyond the limits of Qi Rui's imagination. Can you really inherit everything from this person? Qi Rui lost confidence at all.
