In the dark night, the boundless thick ink smeared heavily on the sky, and there was not even a glimmer of stars. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Chen Ming lay calmly on the bed, his eyes like a pool of water as flat as a mirror, quietly hidden in the depths of the dense shadows. His gaze was very cold, his mood was stable, and the low enthusiasm of the people who had returned from Borneo and River Immortal did not worry him.

China's base is still on the mainland, not on the newly developed Borneo and Ha Xian. As long as the enthusiasm of the domestic people to join the army is not truly dispelled, Chen Ming does not have to really worry about this problem.

Although surveys have shown that in the past two years, the enthusiasm of the domestic people to join the army has been declining year by year -- one of the most obvious reactions is that the number of discharged soldiers is increasing rapidly. In particular, the policy of paying Tashiro will come to an end, which to a certain extent will frustrate the enthusiasm of the people to join the army.

But China's basic plate is too big, with a population of 20,000,000, and some children from poor families in China are willing to eat the bowl of rice as a soldier.

Although the current situation made Chen Ming a little depressed from the heart, years of persistent 'brainwashing' have not been able to completely polish out all the negative effects when the enthusiasm for joining the army fades. Even his own current thinking is a very backward idea -- the military is regarded as a profession for eating.

But he knew very well that this was a necessary process of spiritual transformation in a country.

The core of Chen Han's initial recruitment was to lure them with 'profit', and then instilled the honor and spirit of the country and the nation, and instilled the spirit of soldiers and martial arts. However, with the stability of the country and the recovery of the people's living standards, this kind of "attractiveness" premised on "interests" will inevitably decrease.

An old era is over, and a new one will naturally emerge.

In particular, with the end of the Tian Dai salary policy, this represents a change and an innovation in Chen Han's recruitment policy. It also represents Chen Han's increased demand for 'dedication' for his own army.

The influence of being a soldier is fading, and the dedication to defending the country is increasing -- this is a turning point.

Removing the temptation of profits, the salaries of military personnel should only be maintained at a middle and upper level, and the temptation of high salaries should be offset by 'rewards' in other aspects, so as to instill the national honor of the country and the dedication of military personnel to the country. This is what Chen Han will be working on in the next 10, 20 or even more years.

The attraction of the army has shifted from 'high salaries and high treatment' to spiritual construction and to a sense of social honor, just like the original PLA.

The calmness in Chen Ming's eyes was because the rising tide of 'good men not soldiers' in Borneo and Hexian was really a small and small matter in his eyes. So he can use a very calm and calm mind to consider a series of military 'benefits' in the new era submitted by the cabinet!

This is a time of change. Chen Ming: He wants to allow 'chaos'.

The cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods all came out, and the demons danced wildly, so that they could be slashed and killed one by one by the knives raised by the court.

Transforming material attraction into honor and dedication and elevating the social status of military personnel is not because they make more money, but in a purely spiritual realm -- soldiers defend the country, and the country must repay the soldiers' efforts. So 'welfare' is very important.

Heroes (soldiers) cannot be allowed to shed blood and tears.

The scenes of PLA in the 80s and 90s of the last time and space are poignant.

But at that time, the ability of the rabbits was there, and the rabbits were more than capable of strength. But now China is different!

At present, China's strength is the highest in the world, and if you simply talk about GPD, if China does not account for half of the world, it is at least two-fifths. After all, in his memory, some people say that China's GPD during the Qianlong period was one-third to one-half of the world's.

Will Chen Han's current productivity be as good as Qianlong's?

Therefore, the 'detour' that PLA has taken in the previous life, Chen Han's national defense force cannot go through it again in this life, and China now has the ability to make soldiers shed blood and sweat instead of tears. The detour that the rabbits had to take in the previous life directly made the status of the military very unbearable in society.

From the mid-to-late nineties to the first decade of the twenty-first century, how many people saw the military as a concentration camp for scum? Those who are unwilling to continue going to school after graduating from junior high school, and some hairy and green-skinned gangsters, who make their parents and relatives have a headache and distress, are all thrown into the army to exercise and become new people.

At that time, the trend was far from the image of the previous PLA.

At that time, there was a saying that "the army made me, and the army forged me." ”

seems to be lofty, but in fact it is full of endless sadness.

Because the people who say this are people who have nothing before joining the army, have a very low starting point, and have few resources, and it is difficult for them (us) to gain a foothold in society or realize their own value without the help of the army. For example, children who have been poor since childhood, gangsters who can't graduate from middle school, or who can't get along in society, can be sent to the army to be beaten for a few years, otherwise they may starve to death or go to prison. But if you are a "good man" yourself, born in a family that has not experienced hunger and poverty, has excellent high cultural literacy and high ability, has the ability to think independently, has the resistance to indoctrination propaganda, has your own ideals and plans, and has the most basic survival ability to support yourself, then being a soldier is obviously not the best choice for you.

A good man is not a soldier, and a good iron does not hit nails. This is the old society where the landlords, rich peasants, and national bourgeoisie speak. In a word, because they are rich, they don't need to be soldiers to support themselves. In essence, they regard being a soldier as a profession to eat, and it has nothing to do with dedication and defending the country. This sentence itself is a product of the wrong butt, and it should be criticized in itself. But at that time, this sentence was quite influential.

Choosing to serve as a soldier in order to "earn more/eat enough/be forced to make a living/other material pursuits", so as to take on "being away from family in difficult and remote areas/sacrificing marriage and love/sacrificing freedom/risking life/sacrificing one's own happiness" is a very reasonable but unavoidable choice for 'us'. Therefore, the phenomenon of the army in that era was that children in poor areas were looking for connections to become soldiers, and the more economically developed areas, the fewer people were to join the army, and the more people were reluctant to join the army. For example, the conscripts in Songhu and Yangcheng were almost all deceived and lured by profits.

This phenomenon is really full of negative energy and has a huge impact. But this is the reality that cannot be eliminated - this is the reality. Whether it is in the previous life, or the current Chen Hanhuaxia. It's all absolute reality!

Chen Ming is not from the perspective of a ruler, from the perspective of one person, not only a "good man", but all people think from the perspective of reason and nature, no one would want to be a soldier. The profession of 'soldier' is inherently inherently inhuman. The essence of being a soldier is to maintain the rights of the majority of the people (the common people) at the expense of the interests of the small number of people (the military) - this is a kind of dedication! Very noble and noble dedication!

From the perspective of an emperor, Chen Ming longed for a genius to appear now, who could invent a brainwashing machine and instill this concept into everyone's brains.

The existence of the armed forces is the inevitable result of the system of development of human civilization. It is a liberation for society that does not drag everyone into the vortex of possible death. But for that individual: why would you risk losing your life to defend the happiness of others?

Are you paying for it enough?

This is a question that needs to be judged by each person based on his or her own experience.

It's like the temptation of the Han army at the beginning. For those who are poor, a few silver dollars a month's salary, land division, pension and settling-in allowance make them feel that their lives are worth 'buying'. And now, with the implementation of the new system, the end of the Tian Dai pay policy, and the restoration of people's livelihood, many people feel that 'being a soldier' is not worth it.

This is not only in terms of salary, but also in terms of life and death.

And fundamentally speaking, this is still the same old routine in the Ming and Qing dynasties - being a soldier and eating salaries, or the idea that should be criticized, they still regard the military as a kind of 'normal' profession that requires corresponding rewards for their efforts!

And the military is in fact an abnormal profession.

The national defense force that Chen Ming called for is an abnormal army that stresses dedication. With the end of the Tian Dai pay system, the three words of the National Defense Army will also replace the Fu Han Army as the new name of the Chen Han Army. This in itself is pregnant with Chen Ming's longing!

Just like a certain well-known joker in his previous life said: "The poor jingle sound, and those who have nothing at home sacrifice their lives to fight, which is not called revolution, but rebellion." Many of the family's property and half of the city belong to their family, and this kind of person makes a revolution for the sake of the people's happiness, and that is the pursuit and faith, and that is the real revolution. To a certain extent, Chen Ming also agrees with this concept, he hopes that his army is such an army, full of ideals and beliefs, but looking at the lighthouse armies in Iraq and Afghanistan, the so-called symbol of freedom, there are also endless evils.

Is that an army with 'ideals and beliefs'?

So, to complete this transformation, Chen Ming doesn't know how long it will take, it is likely that he has swallowed the last breath of his life, and the army is still far from the goal.

Therefore, Chen Ming's 'heart' should include everything that will happen in this period of change. The rapid increase in the number of veterans in the country and the negative mood of the people in Borneo, Ha Xian and other places to join the army were all expected by him.

-- This is the low tide period.

As I said before, there are too many Chinese, and there are always children from poor families who come to serve as soldiers, as long as you can change your mind. In the previous life, when the rabbits made a revolution, those martyrs who calmly faced torture and death were by no means inexhaustible in every family, right?

Chen Ming's preferential treatment to military personnel is a kind of national policy tilt.

For example, for medical treatment, military family members must have priority; For example, when getting on a bus and taking a boat, the families of military personnel should also have priority; When children go to school, military families must be given more priority. Bonus points for kids!

The longer the service, the more points are given!

What is Honor? Honor is not just a lip service, but also a contrast of real materials.

Honor is to make others envious and covetous.

It is the need for 'privilege' to set it off, until this definition is stabilized, and then talk about pure spirituality.

Chen Ming felt that this last one was very promising. The new dynasty has not been stable for a few years now, and the new school system has just been promoted. It is necessary to start waiting until ten or twenty years later, when the concept of learning to change destiny is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, how great the power that can be burst out by the children of military soldiers in the examination can be increased, Chen Ming dare not imagine.

The rabbit in the previous life was very fucked up by adding points to the young people, Chen Ming felt that the rabbit was really wrong, shouldn't it be more important to add points compared to the descendants of the young people?

Even in peacetime, military personnel have reduced the risk of death, but their individual freedom has also been restricted, and they have sacrificed the joy of being with their families and their right to normal life, normal recreation and vacation. This is only something that can be said and propagated, and there are still very strict training, corporal punishment and scolding, and even personal insults and mental torture in the army......

In order for a person to dare to kill, he must first become an ordinary person. Isn't it bt?

This makes the profession of the military (social identity) inherently unfair in all walks of life.

The only way to remedy this injustice is to equalize opportunities for all: for example, a system of compulsory military service, or a lottery that allows the children of the rich and the poor, and the children of civilian leaders, to serve in the army. But this form of military service raises a question: Is the government capable of making a citizen sacrifice his or her life if he doesn't want to?

For China, an incomparable country, I am afraid it is very difficult.

These questions make the subjective willingness and choice of military personnel to join the military important. Therefore, the development direction of the military service system is inevitably inclined to "choose independently and voluntarily join the army". Moreover, China's population base is too large, and the compulsory military service system is definitely not a good choice; even if the current Chinese population is only 20,000, in light of the development of this era, Chen Han cannot implement the compulsory military service system, and the intelligence that Chen Han can promote is still the rabbit's set -- the combination of compulsory military service and voluntary military service.

……

Chen Ming came very late this night, and he thought a lot, a lot. Who let the feedback from Borneo and the river immortals touch his heart?

Don't underestimate his feelings for the army and soldiers.

After Chen Han established the country, he continued to insist on the difficult implementation of high-standard treatment for soldiers, and Chen Ming was the army's biggest backstage in the court.

Don't let the soldiers shed blood and tears!

Chen Ming never said this sentence to the outside world, but it has always been buried deep in his heart.

For the army, no matter what the purpose of a person to join the army or whether he is forced to do so, from the day he puts on the military uniform, he assumes the responsibility of defending the security of the country and the happiness of the people, and for this he can give everything he has - including his life - at any time.

Being a soldier is really what makes people unable to become "good men". Because soldiers cannot enjoy a happy and free life, nor can they give their families reunion and filial piety; But being a soldier has made them carry more people's freedom and happiness on their shoulders.

This is the eternal sorrow of soldiers, but it is also the eternal glory of soldiers. (To be continued.) )
