Chapter 114: Coming to the Fore
"Li Ye, there is a meeting in the dormitory tonight. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Wang Heng, there is a meeting in the dormitory tonight."
Liu Zhengshan and Wang Yuan went their separate ways, telling every member of the "Kyodo Society" about the matter, and asking them to go to the dormitory for a meeting tonight.
A few months have passed, and the "Kyodo Society" has developed well, and some people who "have different ways" have left, and some "like-minded" people have joined in, and the number of members of the "Kyodo Society" plus Liu Zhengshan and Wang Yuan, the first president, is 26, and their desire is to make this "country" stronger.
Although Wang Yuan is the vice president of Kyodo News, in fact, the development direction of Kyodo News has always been controlled by Liu Zhengshan, a "fox", not to let it deviate from the direction, as an agent of the Ministry of Intelligence, Liu Zhengshan is also trying to complete his own tasks.
And tonight, Kyodo News will hold a plenary meeting, in which it will discuss how to make the "country" strong, and it will inevitably talk about the various shortcomings of the Manchu Qing, which is precisely the purpose of Liu Zhengshan, so that everyone can correctly understand the Manchu Qing, and then slowly become dissatisfied with the Manchu Qing until they stand on the opposite side of the Manchu Qing.
After dinner, the members of Kyodo gathered in a dormitory room, which was not large, only a dozen square meters, and the 26 members of Kyodo Society packed the room, and several people had no place to sit and could only stand.
In addition, Liu Zhengshan also let a fox be on guard outside, some remarks in the meeting are not good for outsiders to hear, it is easy to put a crime on the Kyodo Society, it happened that some time ago the superior notified that he could communicate and cooperate with other foxes, and tonight Liu Zhengshan asked his partner to help guard it.
At the beginning of the meeting, as the president of Kyodo News, Liu Zhengshan took the lead in speaking.
Liu Zhengshan: "Ahem, comrades, the theme of today's meeting is "Strengthening the Country", please express your opinions. (Comrade refers to like-minded people, do not associate with anything else)
As the vice president, Wang Yuan began by saying to the members: "I think that if the country wants to become strong, the best way is to introduce advanced technology from the West to the country, as long as our country also has advanced technology, we can manufacture advanced firearms, advanced warships, and arm our army and navy...... This concludes my statement. ”
As soon as Wang Yuan finished speaking, before he sat down, one of the more radical members of Kyodo stood up and said loudly: "What the vice president said is very right, the introduction of advanced technology from the West can indeed make the country stronger, but our country itself also has a big problem, corrupt officials are rampant, if we do not rectify the corrupt officials, the country will also decline......
In the meeting, one by one the members of the club said what they thought in their hearts, they saw the strength of Western countries, but also saw the backwardness of their own country, and saw the decay and decay of the Manchu Dynasty, but no one has proposed to overthrow the Manchu Dynasty, after all, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has existed for hundreds of years, even if the four sides are occupied by the "short-haired thief", in their opinion, as long as the Beiyang New Army is trained, the extermination of the "short-haired thief" is just around the corner, and they are even more unlikely to know that there is a "short-haired thief" spy in this dormitory, or their president.
Looking at the fierce discussion among the members, Liu Zhengshan just listened with a smile, Liu Zhengshan knew that as long as he continued to guide, it would not be long before they would become disgusted with the Manchus, and finally stand on the opposite side of the Manchus, which would mean that their tasks were completed.
In Kyodo Society, Liu Zhengshan and Wang Yuan are more popular with ordinary members, basically Liu Zhengshan and Wang Yuan are about to become the superiors of ordinary members, and if they say, ordinary members will follow, not only because the two of them are the founders of Kyodo Society, but more importantly, the two of them are among the best among all students in the infantry department.
It stands to reason that Liu Zhengshan, as an agent, should hide himself and not stand out from the crowd, so that he is more likely to be discovered by the enemy.
But don't forget one thing, the "foxes" entered the military academy not only to win over these future Beiyang New Army officers, they also had to try their best to get a higher position, and there was only one way to get a higher position at the beginning, that is, to make their academic performance better, so as to attract the attention of teachers or generals, so as to get a higher position in the Beiyang New Army compared with the students of the same period.
Of course, the "foxes" will not be at the top of all their grades, and with their knowledge reserves, they can easily crush the "classmates", but doing so will make the "foxes" more exposed, even if they have been lurking here for months.
Therefore, some "foxes" will be among the best, Liu Zhengshan is one of them, some "foxes" are slightly worse than Liu Zhengshan, some "foxes" are more ordinary, and some "foxes" have poor results.
The advantage of Liu Zhengshan's top grades is that he gets more attention from foreigners, and he will call Liu Zhengshan to answer questions from time to time during class.
If Li Hongzhang or other generals of the Beiyang New Army asked the foreigners: Who has military talent?
The answer to the foreigner's teaching is, of course, Liu Zhengshan, who has the highest academic performance.
As for whether Liu Zhengshan's name can be remembered by the generals, it doesn't matter if Liu Zhengshan's crash course graduates and enters the Beiyang New Army, the generals will have an impression of Liu Zhengshan's name when they see it, and they will arrange Liu Zhengshan to a higher position, which is only relative.
In any case, being at the top of your academic performance is an opportunity to stand out, and it can make the "big guys" notice, which may have a big impact on your future official career.
Moreover, after entering the Beiyang New Army, the level of official position also has a great impact on other ordinary members of Kyodo Society, and you must not be a president with a lower official position than other members, right?
In the martial arts academy, it also has a lot of impact because of the problem of academic performance.
Because the academic performance of the leaders is relatively poor or average, the members of some student groups quit directly, and the groups were quietly disbanded because there was no one.
Poor academic performance does not mean that other abilities are weak, but everyone is more willing to follow people with better academic performance, just like Liu Zhengshan.
Because Liu Zhengshan's grades are among the best and he is well-known in the martial arts academy, there are still many students who want to join Kyodo Society, but unfortunately Liu Zhengshan has strict restrictions on the "conditions" of members, and he will not let others join casually, except when he first established Kyodo Society.
On the whole, the Tianjin Wubei Academy is calm, and the land of China, where two regimes have emerged in one country, is also "peaceful", but its enemies are ready.
