Chapter 45: Datongism (II)

As early as when Mozi founded the Mo family, he put forward the bold idea that the Son of Heaven should be elected by the people, which was unbearable for the rulers of any country in the era when the world was hereditary monarchy, and the strict organization and strong action of the Mo family made it a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the monarchs.

Such an organization, which is naturally hostile to the monarch, has always idealized its hopes on the "virtuous" monarch because of the limitations of history, and has never thought of violent revolution from the bottom up, and it is natural that it will be destroyed.

But for Li Hui, a traverser, the former is completely acceptable, and the latter is convenient for him to build the party and save the country, especially the Mohist "Shangtong" ideology provides a solid theoretical basis for Li Hui's expectation of "centralization under the democratic system": the process of electing the supreme leader must be democratic, but once elected, everyone from the top down must resolutely obey all his orders

Due to historical limitations, when the Mohists established this principle more than 2,000 years ago, they did not think about "what should we do if the elected boss is incompetent?" This is certainly conducive to Li Hui's future dictatorship, but it is not a good thing in the long run.

Li Hui has the advantage of being a traverser with foresight, and with the help of the system, it is unlikely that he will make an irreparable mistake, but it is difficult to say who will be his successor, what if the latter makes two consecutive mistakes like the head of the map and leads China to the ditch?

Therefore, Li Hui thought of a means of "impeachment" for the future Congress, the authority of the leader is unquestionable, but every member of the parliament has the right to initiate an impeachment bill in the Congress, once the number of votes in favor exceeds half of the total number of members (not the number of voters), the leader must immediately step down (and if the impeachment fails, the member who proposed impeachment will lose his status as a member.) ), which is kind of an insurance.

As for the chivalrous spirit that the Mohists have always admired, because "chivalry violates the prohibition with martial arts", it often shakes the authority of the government and the law, so all dynasties have been equally suppressed.

But Li Hui may have a different view on this because of the "hero complex" he has had since he was a child.

Li Hui believes that as long as it is indeed a crime, then even if it is not a law enforcement officer, it should have the right to stop and punish, which can stimulate the people's sense of justice and courageous spirit on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also make up for the inefficiency of relying on law enforcement agencies alone.

Therefore, the chivalrous spirit also occupies a place in the neo-Mohist thought, but the neo-Mohist thought is mainly used to govern the country, so it is certainly not as good as the status of the pre-Qin Mohist family to become one of the three major branches

The core idea of the Mohists is "to love each other and benefit each other." It was most admired by Li Hui, but considering the convenience of publicity, Li Hui decided to change it to "fraternity" and "mutual benefit".

This is not only conducive to winning the favor of the West and gaining time for the development and growth of the organization and base areas, but also more in line with the language habits of the lower-class people in China today, and will be somewhat helpful to the spread and development of the Neo-Mohist organization in the early stage.

Because of the Mohist thought as the core, it is not impossible for Li Hui to call his improved thought Mohist thought, but in order to keep up with the times, Li Hui named it "Datongism".

Although after more than 2,000 years of repeated propaganda by Confucianism, the "Datong Society" seems to have been labeled as Confucianism, but this ideal society was actually the common ideal of the pre-Qin princes, and the difference between the various schools was only the different routes chosen to realize this ideal, so Li Hui directly took it with confidence.

It is worth mentioning that for the first time in Chinese history, Li Hui clearly defined the "Datong world" as an idealized social model that can never be attained, but can be approached through hard work.

Since it is clearly stated that this is just an ideal society that cannot appear in reality, then there is no need to carry unnecessary burdens for the sake of political correctness; On the other hand, if it is clearly said that it will get closer and closer, then people should be more and more equal, and the gap between the rich and the poor should be smaller and smaller, and they cannot be reversed, at least not for a long time.

With the slogan of "Datong under Heaven," an ideal society that has been longed for thousands of years by Chinese, especially the lower classes, Li Hui's development organization will inevitably achieve twice the result with half the effort, and the name of this organization is therefore naturally named "Huaxia Datong Party."

Although the biochemical soldiers may not be able to understand this idea immediately, as long as they believe and follow it, they can become seeds and continue to spread it, as shown by the achievements of those "Liangshan heroes", but Li Hui's side is relatively slow because the First Sino-Japanese War has not yet broken out and does not want to be exposed too early.

However, in any case, Li Hui was greatly encouraged by the results achieved by the cavalry team, and after researching and completing the two technologies of "manual bolt machine" and "pointed bullet", Li Hui immediately sent 50 new biochemical soldiers to bring a batch of new firearms to merge with them, and I believe that with this batch of advanced rifles that are ahead of the world, the combat effectiveness of this team can be enhanced several times.

You must know that the rifle bullets used in all countries in the world are round-headed bullets, and the maximum distance for accurate shooting at a single target can only reach about 300 meters (generally speaking, 200 meters to hit a fixed half-body target can be nine out of ten, even if it is a sharpshooter.) ), but the new rifle with pointed bullets can reach more than 600 meters (as long as it reaches the level of a special shooter, it will definitely be no problem to hit a fixed half-body target within 400 meters). )

What once made Li Hui a little depressed was that because the built-in age of the lower-level main technology was only 1880, and the world had not yet invented the pointed bullet, although the technology of the pointed bullet was researched, there was only one pointed rifle cartridge to choose from for system products, that is, the first pointed rifle cartridge in the history of the world - the French 1898 Type 8×50mm rifle cartridge; The type of leash rifle that can be matched with it is the French Lebel 1886 rifle, which is not particularly advanced.

This made Li Hui somewhat disappointed, even if the fame factor is not considered, the first generation of products will generally have a lot of design flaws due to the lack of actual combat testing, but fortunately, he can still optimize them

Perhaps because he has money now, or because of his subconscious perfectionist tendencies, Li Hui has optimized the French pair six times in a row (optimization can only make small changes to the basic size, and if you want to make a big change, you have to optimize it many times. ), finally made him satisfied with the 8×65mm rifle cartridge and a new matching rifle, because this year is the first day of the year, so Li Hui named it the first day of the year
