(Due to some irresistible special reasons, it has to be changed, and the self-established Glorious Party must disappear, and in the future, it will act in the name of the Liberation Society, and there will no longer be a Glorious Party, please forgive me.) Actually, it doesn't matter, it's all the same, the name is still the Liberation Society, just transform it inside. ）

Li Zhigao and Tao Chengzhang are not people who like to beat around the bush, so they didn't have much greetings after they met, and went directly to the topic, that is, how to cooperate in the future.

Although they both cooperated sincerely, the differences between the two were relatively large at the beginning.

In Li Zhigao's view, the main reason for this is that there are many intellectual-type members of the Liberation Society, and they are very good at education, so he hopes that the members of the Liberation Society will only work in propaganda, education, and other political departments, so as to add bricks and tiles to the educational cause that they are vigorously developing.

Second, because the Liberation Society has been developing for a long time, has intelligence networks in various places, and has contacts with other anti-Qing organizations, especially the revolutionary aspirants in various units, such as the Communist Advancement Association, which is very powerful in the New Army, it is hoped that in the future, the Liberation Society will be able to share intelligence with its own security bureau.

Third, because the Restoration Society is currently an organization banned by the Qing court, it is hoped that the members of the Restoration Society can join the Glorious Party as members of the Restoration Society and act in the name of the Glorious Party, just like Yin Ruizhi.

Tao Chengzhang's demand was that the Restoration Society should participate in politics and discussion in the Taiping Mansion as a reading party, and that the members of the Liberation Society should not only participate in the field of education, but also allow the members of the Liberation Society to freely join Li Zhigao's military and other administrative departments, such as finance and civil affairs.

It's okay to share information, but since it's information sharing, you have to let the members of the Liberation Society join the Security Service and share the information of the Security Service.

Thirdly, members of the Restoration Society cannot join the Glorious Party at the same time as they have the membership of the Restoration Society, that is, they do not recognize dual party members, and those who previously joined the Glorious Party as members of the Restoration Society (mainly referring to Yin Ruizhi) are not guilty of the past, but the other party must choose one side again, and after choosing one party, the other party must withdraw.

Obviously, the biggest difference between the two is two points, the first is the struggle for power in the military and the political axe department, and the second is the question of whether to recognize dual party membership.

Obviously, Tao Chengzhang's demands are the lion's mouth, and Tao Chengzhang himself didn't expect Li Zhigao to agree, he was asking for a sky-high price, waiting for Li Zhigao to pay back the money on the spot.

But unexpectedly, Li Zhigao agreed directly with a smile, and even put forward a proposal that surprised him even more, that is, the Glorious Party was merged into the Liberation Association as a whole, but the premise was to reorganize the Liberation Association, and he must give himself a suitable identity.

This is nothing short of overjoyed!

In fact, Li Zhigao did not get carried away, but after careful consideration.

After Li Zhigao formed a party on his own, he found that things were not like that at all, because if he was a newly established small party and wanted to swallow up the Guangfu Society, which had a glorious tradition, it would be very difficult, and it would be better to directly study like Sun Monkey and enter the Guangfu Society and act in the name of the members of the Guangfu Society, which would be more appropriate and would be more able to gain a sense of recognition.

As for power, anyway, the strength of the Liberation Society is weak at this time, and if it goes in by itself, it will be a big bully, and it is not certain who is in charge.

Even if he joins the Restoration Society, with Li Zhigao's ability, the Liberation Society will definitely not give himself a low position, and when the time comes, he can justifiably transform the Restoration Society, fool the Restoration Society, and let the members of the Restoration Society use it for their own use.

In other words, as long as you become a member of the Restoration Society, then as long as you can come up with more benefits and give members a brighter future, then others will definitely listen to you, so that you can annex the Liberation Society more smoothly.

Moreover, he is obviously strong, but he is committed to merging into the Restoration Society, and he can also give himself some emotional points, and I believe that Tao Chengzhang will not treat himself badly.

In history, Tao Chengzhang is not a person who is attached to power, but an idealist and a man of action with a bit of bookish spirit.

Sure enough, after Tao Chengzhang was pleasantly surprised, he repeatedly promised that if Li Zhigao really planned to lead the members of the Glorious Party to merge into the Guangfu Society, then he promised that he would definitely convince other members in the future, and the chairman did not dare to say it, because it had to be elected, but the position of vice president could not run.

In this regard, Li Zhigao just continued to smile and nodded, obviously not caring much about the seat.

I really don't care, because I don't need to.

Li Zhigao knows very well that his biggest dependence, in addition to being able to travel back and forth and obtain a large amount of material and technical support from later generations, the other is the army that he has mastered.

To put it bluntly, at present, all the troops in Li Zhigao's hands are pulled up by him, and they are all loyal to Li Zhigao personally, even if they join the Restoration Society, these people will only listen to themselves, and this has nothing to do with what party they will have.

And what about the Restoration Society, although there are many talents, although there are also many rich second generations, but to put it bluntly, there is nothing to do, only full of enthusiasm, if they can give them a better future and blueprint, they will definitely follow themselves, after all, they are already people of the Liberation Society, they are their own people, and they go with their own people, yes, no?

The most important thing is that the leaders of the Restoration Society, whether they are Zhang Taiyan or Tao Chengzhang, are not people who are attached to the powerful, and they will not fight with themselves, even if they fight, they can't fight, and Li Zhigao is still very confident in this.

In short, it may be difficult to annex a long-established Restoration Society from the outside, which is well documented in history. For example, the Restoration Society was obviously gone, but Yin Ruizhi was reorganized later, even if it was weak.

It's different if you join by yourself, if you have money, soldiers and territory, you will lack talents, but there will be talents in the recovery, as long as you join, it will be mutually beneficial.

In the end, after some very sincere compromise between the two sides, everyone finally reached a few points of consensus, that is, the Glorious Party as a whole was merged into the Guangfuhui, and all members of the Guangfuhui would automatically become members of the Guangfuhui, and the Guangfuhui would be the only ruling party in Taiping Province in the future.

Since the Glorious Party was merged into the Restoration Society, it was necessary to gather other core members of the Liberation Society as soon as possible to convene an enlarged meeting of the members within the Liberation Society, at which a new president and vice president would be elected, and a new reorganization plan for the Liberation Society would be discussed, and a new revolutionary program and constitution of the Liberation Society would be determined.

When Tao Chengzhang took this news to the headquarters of the Liberation Society, President Zhang Taiyan and other key cadres were very excited, and immediately ventured back to China, came to the Taiping Mansion, and quickly convened an enlarged meeting of the Liberation Society, which quickly adopted several charters.

First, the Liberation Party can also be called the Liberation Party internally, and it will implement the original purpose and program of the Glorious Party, that is, to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, which is still divided into three goals.

Second, Li Zhigao was elected as the new president of the Restoration Association, and the vice presidents were Tao Chengzhang, Zhang Taiyan and Liu Runsheng, but in fact, Zhang Taiyan was obsessed with Chinese studies, and the vice president was the top name, and the vice presidents in charge were Tao Chengzhang and Liu Runsheng.

Third, a special military committee was set up to elect Li Zhigao as chairman of the military commission, and the chairman of the military commission was for life.

Fourth, the former SS was reorganized into the Guards, which, like other relevant security departments, was only personally responsible to Li Zhigao and was not subject to the supervision of any other department.

Fifth, it is necessary to establish a press censorship system and set up a press censorship office, so that all newspapers and magazines that will be distributed in Taiping Province in the future must first pass the examination and approval of the press censorship office before they can be released to the outside world. As for the committee members of the Press Censorship Division, the system of appointment is practiced, that is, the members of the Liberation Council themselves propose the candidates, and then Li Zhigao personally appoints them.

Sixth, in order to eliminate the [***] of officials, the establishment of the Independent Commission for Integrity in the political axe department, and the establishment of military courts and military discipline picket committees within the army, referred to as the Military Discipline Inspection Commission.

The difference is that the Independent Commission Against Corruption is responsible for the president and vice president of the Liberation Society, while the Military Discipline Inspection Commission is only responsible to the Military Commission, the Independent Commission Against Corruption is mainly responsible for the political axe officials, and the Military Discipline Inspection Commission is responsible for the internal affairs of the military, and the two do not interfere with each other. To put it simply, if a political axe official is found out by the Independent Commission Against Corruption, it is generally a normal court trial, while once the military is discovered by the Military Commission for Discipline Inspection, it is a military court trial. In principle, the punishment for corruption in the army is faster and higher, and the system of fast and strict punishment is implemented, for example, embezzlement of more than 100 taels in the army is directly shot! If it is less than 100 taels, no matter how much it is embezzled, it is a life sentence! There is no such thing as fixed-term imprisonment in the army, and the families of corrupt officers are not allowed to enter the army for the next three generations, and the law is strictly punished!

Seventh, in the future, the political axe department of the Taiping Mansion implemented the autocratic system of the Liberation Society, and the original organizational arrangements of the Glorious Party were automatically merged into the leadership of the Liberation Society.

These seven articles are the contents of the treaty on the merger of the Glorious Party and the Restoration Society, and from then on, the Glorious Party will be a historical term, and there will only be the Liberation Society in the future.

It is not difficult to see from here that although Li Zhigao joined the Restoration Society, his power has not weakened at all, but has been greatly enhanced. Violent organs such as the army, the police, the security bureau, and the security army are still firmly in the hands of Li Zhigao, and only other administrative powers such as education, medical care, sanitation, and administrative supervision are slightly liberalized, but this is nothing.

In fact, in terms of administration, Tao Chengzhang is indeed stronger than Liu Runsheng, after all, the gap between knowledge and governing experience is there, Liu Runsheng is just loyal enough, but his ability is really average. Liberalizing administrative power will, first, liberate a lot of Li Zhigao's energy, second, show his generosity, and third, give up the most difficult position to others, so that if there is any problem in the administration, he will go to the head of the political axe, such as the mayor or the prime minister, instead of him, the chairman of the Military Commission. In this way, Li Zhigao will be able to follow the example of Chairman Chiang of later generations, firmly grasp the barrel of the gun, and sit firmly in the back of the Diaoyutai so that if he sees who is not doing a good job in administration, he can change people at any time to calm down the anger below.

It's just that in this way, the Liberation Society will automatically be used by Li Zhigao, and it has a large number of talents, which is the meaning of new wine in old bottles.

After the merger of the Liberation Society, Li Zhigao continued to be busy training his own army and running his own factories and businesses, Zhang Taiyan continued to play his national studies, and Tao Chengzhang, the new chairman of the Advisory Council, was busy with local administrative reform with great interest. Tao Chengzhang decided to change the original advisory bureau of Taiping Province into a de facto local council, and then discuss the formulation of new laws and regulations at the meeting, and reorganize a new and more complete political structure.

To put it simply, Tao Chengzhang wants to establish a more perfect, similar to the British cabinet system, the separation of powers, the new axe, want to make the legislative power greater than the other two powers, let the parliament become the highest decision-making body, and formulate relevant laws and regulations in advance, so that the political axe will be more organized in the future, and pay attention to the rule of law. And at this time, an accident interrupted everyone's plan, and this accident was the change of the Qing court!

To put it simply, the GIs are overwhelmed!;
