Chain Reaction (9)
After the meeting of the Central Military Commission was adjourned, Hua Xiongmao hurriedly left the venue. His heart was full of a sense of the people's revolution. Just as he was about to walk out of the barracks gate quickly, he suddenly heard a familiar voice shouting from behind him: "Zhenglan, don't leave yet." ”
Hearing the sound of Qiu Jin's shouting, Hua Xiongmao's heart was shocked, after Qiu Jin came to the base, Hua Xiongmao tried to avoid meeting Qiu Jin. He was well aware of the attitude of Chen Ke and the Party Central Committee towards the Yue Wang Society and the Guangfu Society, and Hua Xiongmao himself supported this attitude. The BJP is under no obligation to provide military or political assistance to the Yue Wang Hui and the Guangfu Society. The greatest existential significance of these two revolutionary parties now is nothing more than to attract the attention of the Manchus in Anqing and Chizhou. Chen Ke is not a "good person", after the Battle of Anqing, the reason why the People's Party handed over Anqing and Chizhou to the Yue Wanghui and the Guangfu Society was that Chen Ke's plan had quite cruel considerations. The Yue Wang Association is a local party, and the Guangfu Society is the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Revolutionary Party. It is unlikely that these two will be completely wiped out by the Manchus. And the Manchus will definitely exterminate these two political parties that have created such "movements". Just cutting the grass and eradicating the roots required the great strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. These two parties will certainly be able to buy the BJP a lot of time.
Hua Xiongmao knew that it was not Qiu Jin himself who Chen Ke was calculating, but Qiu Jin was Hua Xiongmao's aunt after all, and it was impossible for Hua Xiongmao to violate the discipline of secrecy to reveal the internal confidential information of the People's Party to Qiu Jin, and he had a sense of guilt towards Qiu Jin. As a result, Hua Xiongmao tried in every possible way to avoid contact with Qiu Jin. Today, it was a hundred secrets, but it was still blocked by Qiu Jin.
Treating Qiu Jin's shouts as if he hadn't heard them was certainly a solution to the problem temporarily, but Hua Xiongmao couldn't bear to do so. He stopped his pace, turned his head, and saw Qiu Jin running quickly.
Stopping in front of Hua Xiongmao, Qiu Jin said straight to the point: "Zhenglan, I have something to ask you." You lend me some soldiers. You have the final say on the number of people, it doesn't need to be much, ten people, twenty people will do. But you have to be able to help me and your uncle, Xu Xilin. ”
"Auntie, I can't help with this." Hua Xiongmao replied regretfully, "Our People's Party is the party's command army, and I can't move alone without the orders of the party committee." ”
Qiu Jin glared at Hua Xiongmao, as if he was looking at a monster. After a while, she asked in the angry tone that is characteristic of being fooled, "Zhenglan, you have a few thousand men?" Would you not lend me ten men? ”
"Auntie, it's not that I'm fooling you, our People's Party is such a system. The party committee made a decision, and I had to go out to fight with thousands of troops and horses. Without the decision of the party committee, I could not take it with me. Hua Xiongmao worked hard to convince Qiu Jin.
"Zhenglan, do you think this can deceive me?"
Hua Xiongmao didn't know how to explain it to Qiu Jin because he had never thought of it. When he was thinking hard, a thought suddenly flashed in Hua Xiongmao's mind, which he had never considered before, but now this thought was like a lightning bolt crossing his thoughts, making Hua Xiongmao suddenly have a feeling of enlightenment, "Auntie, it is because our army has such discipline that our People's Party can be invincible. Our army is the party's army, not my army alone. Our army can win the war because it fights for the common people. If the army becomes my army alone, who will listen to me? ”
If these words were said to the People's Party's military commissar and the soldiers of the army, Hua Xiongmao would definitely have succeeded in convincing the other party. But he is now facing Qiu Jin outside the People's Party. Qiu Jin couldn't understand what Hua Xiongmao was talking about at all. Because Qiu Jin is also an important position in Chizhou, he knows that as the leader of a political party, he must set an example. Therefore, Qiu Jin can understand the reason why Chen Ke can't agree to borrow. Today, when the People's Party is also facing the siege of the Manchus, it is inconvenient for Chen Ke to explain to the people below the People's Party. After thinking about it, Qiu Jin felt that Hua Xiongmao would definitely be able to help, Hua Xiongmao had thousands of people, and it was not very easy to support a dozen or twenty people? Unexpectedly, Hua Xiongmao actually rejected himself with the incredible reason that "without the order of the party committee, he can't be transferred by himself".
"Zhenglan, can't you borrow a dozen people from your guard for me?" Qiu Jin was already completely furious.
"My guard?" Although he saw Qiu Jin's angry face, Hua Xiongmao still almost laughed out loud when he heard this. The military cadres of the BJP do not have their own guard units. The only guard battalion was the one that was used to defend the direct subordinate units of the Party Central Committee. The guards of the commanders at all levels were all arranged by the political commissar He Zudao. To say something unpleasant, even if Hua Xiongmao is willing to follow Qiu Jin by himself now, he doesn't even dare to take the guards. Because the guards may not agree with Hua Xiongmao's idea of leaving without permission. But this kind of problem can't be explained to Qiu Jin, Hua Xiongmao is very clear. If he really explained it like this, Qiu Jin couldn't understand the organizational model of the People's Party at all.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Chen Ke's guard appeared. "Mr. Qiu, Chairman Chen, please come over."
These words finally saved Hua Xiongmao from an embarrassing situation, but this feeling of happiness did not last long, and Qiu Jin glared at Hua Xiongmao with angry eyes. The resentment caused by extreme incomprehension made Hua Xiongmao's heart chill. He suddenly felt a sense of grievance that the BJP's organizational model had eliminated the private control of military cadres in the army. The troops are under full control of the Department of Political Affairs. All of Hua Xiongmao's power comes from the authorization of the party committee, and although Hua Xiongmao himself has a high status in the army, he is only a member of the party committee standing committee in the party committee. He, a member of the Standing Committee, must also accept the resolution of the party committee. and cannot dictate on their own.
Qiu Jin didn't give Hua Xiongmao a chance to explain, she turned around and followed Chen Ke's guards and left.
Hua Xiongmao turned around and walked outside the barracks in frustration, to be honest, since he followed Chen Ke, Hua Xiongmao never thought that he would become the commander in charge of tens of thousands of troops so quickly. However, the organizational model that Chen Ke framed did not reveal anything special at first. The like-minded comrades are very young, and they have no experience in the face of sudden floods, and everything must be discussed. At that time, Chen Ke personally led by example on the front line, leading everyone from birth to death. Since Chen Ke is not afraid, what else do you have to say. Follow Chen Ke, the founder of the People's Party. A whole set of systems was unconsciously established in Chen Ke's seemingly casual arrangement. Every comrade seems to have his own responsibilities on his shoulders, and he can find the relevant person in charge of everything. Hua Xiongmao is very satisfied with this system. Today, he discovered that even if he is in a high position, it is absolutely impossible for him to use this system to do something private for himself that violates the principles of the People's Party. If you want to send troops to help Qiu Jin privately, then you must let the system that has been built have huge loopholes artificially created. And Hua Xiongmao asked himself, he didn't want such an artificial loophole.
What support Qiu Jin can get from Chen Ke has already been discussed by the party committee, and the People's Party will send someone to escort Qiu Jin back to Chizhou. Since the system of the Liberation Society is completely different from that of the People's Party, any help given to the Liberation Society is unlikely to have any real effect, and it is better to simply not help each other than to waste the lives of comrades. The Liberation Society had cooperated with the People's Party, and in return, the People's Party had handed over Chizhou to the Liberation Society. In the eyes of the comrades of the People's Party, even if Chen Ke's strategic design did not fade out, the Liberation Society had greatly publicized its existence by occupying Chizhou. The capture of a city is something that the Liberation Society can do at great cost, and the People's Party does it for the Liberation Society. Everyone has settled accounts with each other according to the original agreed plan. As for what will happen after that, the Liberation Society will seek mercy for itself. There should be no complaints. However, Qiu Jin and Xu Xilin are Hua Xiongmao's relatives after all, and they know that they are in danger, but Hua Xiongmao can't help, and this feeling is still very bad. Hua Xiongmao lowered his head and walked out of the barracks, the guards had already prepared horses for him, this was the war horse of the new army captured in the Battle of Anqing, after Hua Xiongmao got on the horse, he couldn't help but look back at the direction of Chen Ke's office, Qiu Jin should have quarreled with Chen Ke about aiding the Chizhou Restoration Society at this time. Hua Xiongmao couldn't help but sigh slightly when he thought of this, and then urged the war horse to rush in the direction of Yue Zhangji's station.
The dispute between Hua Xiongmao and Qiu Jin took place at the gate of the Fengtai County military camp, and many cadres saw it. Yan Fu came out with Hua Xiongmao, and he also saw this scene of relatives fighting. Seeing Hua Xiongmao's dejected appearance, Yan Fu even felt a kind of sympathy from the bottom of his heart. Sympathy is sympathy, Yan Fu doesn't think there is anything wrong with Chen Ke's attitude towards Qiu Jin. Yan Fu knew that Chen Ke and Qiu Jin were old friends. The two have the same style of expensive watches in their hands, which is enough to prove that the relationship between the two is not ordinary. As the chairman of the People's Party, Chen Ke takes the interests of the People's Party as the highest criterion. This attitude made Yan Fu agree very much.
Before the Battle of Anqing, Yan Fu also had some illusions about King Yue. I hope to get the help of King Yue when attacking Anqing. Before Yan Fu mentioned the Yue Wang Society, Chen Ke didn't even know about the existence of the Yue Wang Society. But Chen Ke can grasp the characteristics of King Yue's meeting just by imagining. In the Battle of Anqing, Chen Ke's position on Yue Wanghui was "malicious neutrality". At the summary meeting after the Battle of Anqing, everyone exchanged many things that happened when they came into contact with Yue Wanghui, and the comrades were full of praise for Chen Ke's foresight. The "meeting party" is unreliable, and this is the unifying idea of the top level of the People's Party.
However, with Yan Fu's experience, the bottom of what he can imagine is the party. Although Yan Fu has heard Chen Ke talk about the "people's revolution" countless times. But Yan Fu still couldn't quite accept what Chen Ke called the "people's revolution". In Yan Fu's view, the people need the education of the superiors. Whatever the People's Party says, the people just have to do it. Isn't it a matter of course for the superior to guide and educate the people?
Yan Fu could feel that Chen Ke also had a lot of the same thoughts as himself in his heart, but Chen Ke himself was trying to fight against this kind of thought. Chen Ke not only constantly taught the comrades of the People's Party, "The people know the truth, the people can distinguish between right and wrong, and they must trust the people." And Yan Fu could see that Chen Ke was also trying to convince Chen Ke all the time to believe in this attitude. When Chen Ke formulated policies, he demanded that the cadres of the People's Party must make it clear to the people in words that the people can understand before implementing them. Yan Fu felt that this was where Chen Ke contradicted himself. If the people can only understand the meaning of the policy when they get benefits, then doesn't this practice mean that the people are villains who do not understand the general righteousness and only know how to pursue their own interests?
Whether it is the party or the people, it is unreliable. Yan Fu couldn't help but think. However, Chen Ke is still more discerning, when he conquered Anqing, he finally snatched a group of female students from Anqing Girls' School, and prepared to train these female students to become teachers. Although this method is really a bit radical, Yan Fu feels that in the long run, this is a good method. Moreover, Anqing is about to become a new battlefield, Yan Fu does not believe in the military discipline of the new army, once the new army recaptures Anqing, there will inevitably be a military disaster. These female students are much safer in the base area. It is unlikely that there will be a water war in the future defense of the base areas, and the party committee hopes that Yan Fu will strengthen the education system in the base areas as soon as possible. So Yan Fu decided to go to the normal school to have a look.
When Yan Fu arrived at the normal school, the female students had just finished their task of plowing that day. Everyone has been in the base for so long, and the young lady's habits have weakened a lot. Everyone wiped their sweat with cloth towels and rested on the small benches they carried. At this time, Ren Qiying, who was confirmed as a member of the temporary ideological committee, was speaking to everyone.
"Students, everyone said yesterday that simplified words are not good-looking, and I admit that. However, simplified characters are easy to learn and recognize, and they are much easier to learn than those traditional characters. All of us will be people's teachers in the future, and we will teach and teach everyone to read and write, so that the people can master the tool of writing. Words are a tool, not a status symbol. By reading and writing, by learning culture, people can learn a lot of skills through more books. These skills can make people's lives better. That's what education is for. We educate the people in order to teach them a better life skill. It's not to breed a bunch of bastards who want to be masters after recognizing a few broken words. ”
"Then Mr. Ren, why do you still have to take the exam in the base area? I see that in the regulations of the base area, all civil servants recruited in the future need to take an examination? A girl asked.
After listening to the girl's answer, Ren Qiying smiled, "The civil servants in the base area are public servants of the people, and if they don't know how to read, they will not be efficient in doing a lot of work." The so-called good memory is not as good as a bad pen, and only by mastering the tool of cultural knowledge can we work better. We promote cultural education for the sake of enabling people to work better, not to become officials, and this is the biggest difference between our base and other political organizations. We must realize that we ourselves are the same people as everyone else at all times, rather than becoming a high-ranking lord after recognizing a few words. All of us are equal. ”
"According to what you said, Chairman Chen Ke and we are the same equal people?" The girl asked a little timidly.
"That's right, there is only a difference in the division of labor in the base area, and there is no difference in status. Chairman Chen Ke is a political leader, and this is something that already exists. But this does not mean that Chairman Chen Ke has the privilege of being above us. ”
"Then when we farm, why didn't Chairman Chen Ke farm together?" A slightly naughty looking girl whispered.
Ren Qiying was not angry at such complaints, she smiled and said, "Then when Chairman Chen Ke was fighting, why didn't you go to war?" ”
Hearing this, the girl who complained quietly blushed and didn't dare to say anything more.
"It's a difference in the division of labor. Because we believe that Chairman Chen Ke is indeed better than us in this regard, we elected Chairman Chen Ke to sit in the chairman's position. Comrades, our People's Party does not have any privileges, and Chairman Chen Ke became the chairman of the party, which is also the result of everyone's vote. As a member of the BJP, I also went to the polls. Chairman Chen Ke made us elect, not his self-appointed. It wasn't because of his coercion and inducement that he got this status. ”
Hearing this, the girl who originally didn't agree with Ren Qiying's political education couldn't help but widen her eyes. They didn't know that the instructor in front of them had so much power to participate in such a big event as electing the chairman of the People's Party. In their opinion, Chen Ke is at least equivalent to a county order. The fact that the Manchu county orders were never elected by election had a great impact on the girls' worldview.
Yan Fu listened to Ren Qiying's words and frowned slightly. This is not because Chen Ke was elected by the members of the People's Party, which made Yan Fu feel puzzled. In Yan Fu's view, education is the means by which the government transforms the people, while in Ren Qiying's statement, education only allows the people to master a tool to transform themselves. This view, which is almost the opposite, made Yan Fu feel a real shock.
