After the military meeting ended, everyone returned to their troops, and the headquarters quickly fell silent.

"Ahh Ahh Zhao Bei stood at the conference table and sneezed twice, raised his hand and rubbed his nose, looked forward, and saw that the staff officers were still formulating a reorganization plan, and he only needed to give a program for these things, and the rest of the things, these officers who graduated from various military academies would naturally handle it properly.

"Zhang Jiyang!" Zhao Bei glanced at a staff officer who was sorting out the documents, this person was an official member of the Restoration Society, unlike him, who had not even submitted a letter of introduction to the headquarters of the Restoration Society.

"Here!" Zhang Jiyang walked up to Zhao Bei and stood up and saluted.

"I have to thank you for helping me out just now."

"The commander-in-chief is gracious. For the sake of the revolutionary cause, you did not hesitate to bear the infamy, and the department admired it very much. ”

"Where, where, it's just the responsibility of the revolutionary. Let's go to the garden. Zhao Bei rubbed his nose and walked out of the conference room with the guards.

The two of them walked around the back garden of the yamen with the guards, it was winter, there was nothing in the garden, dead branches and leaves, a dilapidated scene, but it was in contrast to the situation of the Qing Dynasty today.

Zhao Bei opened the guards, walked into a pavilion with Zhang Jiyang, brushed off the dust on the stone bench, and sat down.

"Stirring, what's your name?" Zhao Bei motioned for Zhang Jiyang to sit opposite.

"Report to the commander, the word 'Fenfen', the number 'Shiren'."

"Sit down, sit down, don't be polite, now we are not speaking as a subordinate above, we are speaking as a comrade of the Restoration Society, and there is more courtesy." Zhao Bei waved his hand, motioned for Zhang Jiyang to sit back on the stone bench, smiled, and said: "I didn't expect you to have a number, so let's do it, I'll call you 'Shiren' in the future, you call me 'Zhenhua', I'm two years older than you, you can also call me Brother Zhao." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! The department still calls you commander. Zhang Jiyang was a little restrained, and he didn't even know where to put his hands.

"Shiren, I heard that you were born in Xiucai and also went to the military academy, right?" Zhao Bei asked.

"I graduated from the Anqing Military Training School and learned surveying and mapping. As for Xiucai's fame, don't mention it, Haoshou is poor, time is wasted, literature can't be peaceful, martial arts can't set the country, that's not called learning, that's called nerds. Zhang Jiyang raised his hand to support the pair of round-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and then put his hands on his knees.

"Surveying and mapping? No wonder Lan Tianwei sent all those students of the Jiujiang Surveying and Mapping School to you. Zhao Bei nodded, changed his words, and asked, "In your opinion, how is the organization of our Liberation Society in the new army developing?" ”

"The development of the Anhui New Army is not bad, there are some forces in Zhejiang, and other places are not very good, but the department is only a small member, and these things involve secrets in the association, and I don't know much."

"It seems that there are no comrades in the Hubei New Army and the Jiangsu New Army."

"Probably not, if there is, presumably they should come to the organization these days."

"It can't go on like this, the combat effectiveness of the revolutionary army comes from strict organization and discipline, and the morale of the Qing Dynasty army comes from military salaries and rewards, but we are a revolutionary army, we can't use the Qing Dynasty's set, we have to find a new road." Zhao Bei stood up, paced a few steps in the pavilion with his hands behind his back, looked at the dead branches in the garden, and said quietly: "Shiren, I plan to establish a 'current affairs speaker' system in the newly formed Republican Army, and our Restoration Society should bear the historical burden of transforming this old army." ”

"The current affairs speaker system?" Zhang Jiyang also stood up, pondering the word.

Zhao Bei patted Zhang Jiyang's shoulder and said: "We must develop this current affairs propaganda system to grassroots companies, and every newly formed company should have at least one such representative, his main responsibility is to preach revolutionary principles to soldiers, preach current affairs and politics, and grasp the mentality of soldiers, and report to me in a timely manner, we must not only tell soldiers what they are fighting for, but we must also publicize our ideas through such a system, so that more people know our ideas." The current affairs lecturer is not bound by the military commander, but is directly responsible to the headquarters. ”

"I see. This is similar to the military supervision system of the Ming Dynasty. Zhang Jiyang suddenly realized.

Zhao Bei shook his head with a smile and said, "It's different. The military supervision system of the Ming Dynasty was to supervise the commanders of the army and prevent them from committing chaos, but our 'current affairs lecturer system' is not to supervise officers, but to mobilize soldiers! Be sure to remember this, is to launch the soldiers! ”

Zhang Jiyang was puzzled: "Isn't that similar to the practice of the Qunzhi Society?" They also only recruit soldiers, not officers. ”

"Wrong! The group governance society is to attract people to join the gang, which is the party's faction. We are not pulling people into the gang, but reforming the soldiers ideologically! We don't need to form cliques, because we are above board, and as long as the soldiers come to their senses, they will follow us. Zhao Bei said.

Zhang Jiyang heard a little dissatisfaction in Zhao Bei's words, nodded, and said: "In the past few days, the Qunzhi Society has indeed been pulling people everywhere, and I also heard that they are going to change the name of the society, first they said that they want to call it 'Society', and then it was changed to 'Endeavor Club', I don't know if they have changed it now?" Also, the people of the Alliance have been quite active recently, but it seems that our Restoration Society has nothing to do. ”

"Shiren, I'm worried too." Zhao Bei saw that Zhang Jiyang was already on the road, so he opened the skylight and said something bright. "If this continues, I'm afraid our army will be crushed by the Qunzhi Academy. The army, the most taboo is to form gangs, why is the Qing army's combat effectiveness not strong? Although there are reasons for the decay and backwardness of its military system, it is not without the factor of the party, and the influence of the elders' association in the Qing army is very strong, which directly affects the unity of military orders. Our revolutionary army is different from any previous army, and this army will open up a new era! Shiren, this current affairs speaker system was conceived by me for a few days, and now the framework has been basically determined, and all that remains is to find a general representative, and this person must be you. ”

"What? Am I the general representative? No, no! I'm too young to do anything like that. No, no! Zhang Jiyang shook his head again and again.

Nonsense! If you've had this kind of system before, I'm not sure I'll ask you to go!

Zhao Bei shook his head slightly, the reason why he took a fancy to Zhang Jiyang, in addition to the fact that he was an official member of the Restoration Society, was that this person was too idealistic, and his personality was relatively peaceful, obedient to authority, and very well controlled, which was conducive to mastering this army as soon as possible.

There is no way, the revolutionary situation is complicated, and it is not easy not only to fight against the enemy, but also to guard against revolutionary comrades from time to time, and to command a revolutionary army with mixed members.

"Stone Man! How can a revolution be postponed? Zhao Bei said solemnly. You haven't been a staff officer before, aren't you doing a good job now? It doesn't matter, just learn! I have a booklet here that you can take and see, I believe it will inspire you. ”

Zhao Bei took out a booklet he wrote, which he wrote last night, and while writing, he held a copy of "Kangxi Dictionary" and checked it, only a few thousand words, and wrote it overnight, but fortunately, it was written with a pen, and the calligraphy was barely okay.

Zhang Jiyang saw that the cover of the booklet had the words "Soldier Mobilization Skills" written on it, and the strokes were vigorous. In fact, this was written by Zhao Bei based on his own experience as a salesman, and absorbed the concept of MLM in small amounts.

"Remember, just read this booklet yourself, don't show it to others, and return it to me as soon as you finish it." Zhao Bei said seriously.

Zhang Jiyang tried to resign, but Zhao Bei insisted that he be the "chief representative of the current affairs speaker", and after desperation, Zhang Jiyang had no choice but to take the errand.

"Shiren, in the future, you will be the general representative of our Republican Army's current affairs speaker, don't let down my ardent hopes. Just now, a few young people from Jiangxi's 'Yizhi Society' came to join the army, and I have already arranged them in the headquarters, they have high revolutionary enthusiasm and good knowledge, and they can be your first batch of subordinates. Zhao Bei patted Zhang Jiyang's shoulder and led him out of the pavilion.

"In order to extend this system to the whole army, every grassroots company must have at least one current affairs speaker, and remember, to select soldiers with a strong revolutionary position and poor background as representatives, they must be literate! This is important. In the future, we will set up literacy classes in our army, and they will be ready-made cultural teachers. We must not only set up a current affairs propaganda team in the army, but also promote this system to the society, use the voice of our revolutionaries to cleanse this outdated era, and awaken the sleeping people! Shiren, the burden on your shoulders is very heavy, your battlefield is a battlefield without gunpowder, it is directly related to the future and future of our army, and even this country, and it cannot be neglected. ”
