“…… So as to achieve the ultimate goal of transforming the national character! ”

When mentioning the transformation of national character, Tang Haoran only felt a stirring in his chest, national character or national character, that is, national quality, the most basic thing is its ideological and moral quality, or that national character and the people's ideological and moral quality are common under normal circumstances. Their basic connotations all refer to the common ideals and beliefs, value scales, character traits, moral norms, ways of thinking, and even psychology, customs, and so on formed by a country and a nation in the context of living together for a long time and under the same cultural background.

In later generations, whenever "national character" is mentioned, people will think of Lu Xun, and the purpose of Lu Xun's study of national character is precisely for the liberation of the Chinese toiling masses and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. As he said in his essay "Discontent": "There is a race of people who are not complacent, always moving forward, always having hope." There are many races that only know how to blame people and do not know how to reflect, woe to you! Half a year before his death, he also pointed out in a letter to You Bingqi that "exposing his own shortcomings is intended to revive and improve"! Therefore, throughout his life, Lu Xun took exposing the chronic diseases of the national character, excavating the "root causes" of the national ideological and moral quality, and exploring and shaping a new type of national quality as his unshirkable task.

However, the "national inferiority" exposed and criticized by Lu Xun was accumulated in the long-term development process of Chinese history, and it is a "chronic disease" that has not been cured for a long time. There have been too many movements and attempts in history to change the "root of national inferiority", but the only thing that has not been tried is the most effective thing - national militarization!

National militarization may not be the best option, but it is the only feasible option, compared to the ordinary sense of the movement change, or to learn from this, from that drifting, uncertain. Militarized training and life can teach people a habit, a militarized habit of life, militarized training, militarized life, and militarized country, and in the process, it can also cultivate the discipline spirit and team consciousness of ordinary people.

Moreover, through that kind of militarized national life, the people can have a healthy foundation, and the body is the capital of everything. Good physical fitness can improve the competitiveness of the whole nation.

As with Friedrich of Prussia? Wilhelm I, in general, devoted his whole life to the forced transformation of Prussia with the strengthening of monarchy and militarism. When the "master architect of the Prussian state" died in 1740, he left behind a considerable "military treasure": about 10 million thalers of money and a well-trained and powerful army, which was the best in Europe at the time, and he also brought the whole life of the country into the orbit of militarism. As Friedrich? Friedrich II, the successor of Wilhelm I, continued the career of the "King of Soldiers". Throughout his life, he pursued the "supremacy of the national interest" and was awarded the title of "King Friedrich". He demanded that his subjects be scrupulously orderly and disciplined, and that they obey his dictatorship unconditionally.

It is precisely thanks to the efforts of several generations that the Prussian people's rigid observance of order and discipline was finally created, which is exactly what the Chinese people lack, and it is also the "gift" that Tang Haoran hopes to give to the Chinese people through "military nationalization education", to be precise, a "gift" for the transformation of national character.

Cai Yuanpei, who has always been in favor of military and national education, first nodded after pondering for a moment, and then shook his head:

"But how much effort and how much money is needed to promote the militarization of national life throughout the country? This does not only depend on the soldiers in the townships, but also the establishment of corresponding groups at all levels, and how to motivate the people to take the initiative to participate in the training, relying only on coercive measures, obviously unrealistic, these need to be considered. ”

Cai Yuanpei's suggestion asked Tang Haoran to turn around and remind the stenographer behind him:

"Did you write it down?"

After receiving a satisfactory answer, he turned back with an indifferent expression and said:

"It's not a problem, how to get the soldiers in the township to enter the village self-government?"

After a rhetorical question, Tang Haoran shook his head and said.

"Relying on just an order signed by me? Although the soldiers have the name of royal soldiers, they are different from teachers, teachers are like fathers, there is this tradition here, the status of teachers itself is higher than that of soldiers, plus the name of "royal", they enter the village self-government, that is, it is a matter of course, so the problem to be solved cannot only rely on an order, but also solve the problem of their identity. ”

Identity, this is the most important thing, no matter what you do, if you have a suitable identity, everything will seem to go extremely smoothly, and Tang Haoran has long been in the chest for this.

"Or get a sheriff! Before they were discharged, they received three months of judicial training and were allowed to serve as village magistrates, but now there is a gap in the area of village security, and this can be coordinated with the Ministry of Justice, so that not only can the problem of their status be solved, but also the problem of social security. ”

Shang Dequan, who has been thinking about the identity of the soldiers in the township, suggested in a timely manner.

"If all the rural sheriffs in China were served by soldiers in the townships......"

In his heart, Shang Dequan couldn't help but look forward to it, only then, a strict military mobilization system, it is possible to establish a fundamental, now China's military mobilization system, is not strict, in the city there are police stations to assist in mobilization, but in the countryside, now China's rural areas, as for thousands of years, are "herding" type management, relying only on the village office, at most with the assistance of teachers management, but this is difficult to establish a truly efficient military mobilization system.

If the war against Russia taught him anything, it was that he and military experts around the world realized that the era of total war had come, and many people in Europe believed that the most fundamental reason why China was able to win the war against Russia was not because of weapons, but because the northeast fully mobilized every ounce of its own strength and defeated Russia with the epoch-making concept of total war -- Russia did not exert its national strength during the entire war. On the other hand, the Northeast can exert its full strength.

"In addition, it is possible to organize military skills competitions between villages, and the rewards of the competition can be through the distribution of certain bonuses, taking advantage of the collective sense of honor and collective interests of the village community, and urging the villages to take the initiative to participate in the competition through the military skills competition......

How are the overcomers' funds distributed? In the end, how to implement it for each family? Or let a few profit from it? ”

Zhang Zhidong, who has been silent all along, immediately retorted that over the years, as the prime minister, with the stability of the country, he found that he seemed to be outdated, and it seemed that he was getting older, so he rarely expressed his personal opinions now, in fact, he, the prime minister, was more like an ornament more often, and he knew very well that soon, His Majesty might consider the issue of the prime minister's more human.

And for his successor, he has his own opinion, compared to those unstoppable officials in the Northeast, he is more inclined to conservative officials, just like in this cabinet, he is more inclined to Yuan Shikai, inclined to this official who is the same as him, the old minister, the reason why he is inclined to him is because his character is more stable, but he is not sure about the emperor's attitude.

But now, in the face of this suggestion, even with his eyes half-closed, he can no longer remain silent.

"Do not suffer from poverty, but suffer from unevenness, whether the distribution of this bonus may provoke dissatisfaction in people's hearts, please also ask for three graces!"

Zhang Zhidong's opposition made Shang Dequan frown slightly, not suffering from poverty, but suffering from unevenness, this is human nature, and it can even be said that there is no way to solve it, but at this time, Yuan Shikai took the initiative to speak on the side.

"It's easy,"

In Yuan Shikai's view, this is not a problem at all.

"Of course, the prize money issued by the military competition does not need to be paid directly to individuals, but directly returned to the national schools in each village, so that the beneficiaries are the children of those villagers, so there is no unfair problem, after all, almost all families have children studying in national schools, and this is also their common property, I believe they will not object to such an arrangement."

Although the national primary schools in the villages are actually built by the villages themselves using village funds in the name of the people, it is precisely for this reason that the villagers have always been the "directors" of the national primary schools, and the "boards" of each national school are actually members of the village councils, and correspondingly, every school in China is actually the "common property" of the people in its "school district".

After thinking about it carefully, Shang Dequan, who realized the benefits in the meantime, nodded again and again and said:

"Yes, that's it, it's a good idea, and as His Majesty said, it's the collective, the collective interest, the collective honor, and ultimately the collective benefits......"

No one expressed any objection to this, and Tang Haoran also glanced at Yuan Shikai with satisfaction, although he had always been wary of this person, but on the other hand, he had to admit one thing - compared to others, Yuan Shikai did have talents that were difficult for others to match, no wonder he was in another time and space...... Thinking of this, I was secretly vigilant in my heart, how should this person be used?

After a moment of entanglement between history and reality, Tang Haoran looked at everyone and said.

"Let the township soldiers serve as sheriffs and military competitions are only one of the steps, we have to consider a whole, after all, the sheriff is only a part of the township soldiers, my idea is that we want to establish a civil defense regiment, from top to bottom to establish civil defense regiments at all levels, and include all male nationals in the civil defense regiment system, through this way of all the people are soldiers, to achieve the goal of using the township soldiers, training the people, and changing the people. In the current world of the jungle, if we don't find a way to strengthen ourselves, it is purely the fate of being slaughtered......"

After a seemingly emotional sigh, Tang Haoran continued:

"This is not only a matter of improving the overall quality of the people and a matter of generations to come, but also related to the rise and fall of the entire nation; if the civil defense regiment is done well, then the civil defense regiment will have a lot to do; if it is used well, it can not only defend the township against bandits, but also effectively mobilize the people; in wartime, each division and district only needs to distribute the supplementary quota to each district in proportion, and the civil defense regiment and district can directly replenish the troops, and if the soldiers and the people are united, it is the road to be taken by the ********."

Seeing that everyone's expressions were extremely solemn, Tang Haoran took a sip of tea and explained seriously:

From now on, China must fundamentally and completely change the tradition of "the imperial power does not go down to the village community", and the domestic armor protection system must be further improved, with ten households as the first, ten as the guarantee, and ten guarantees as the township as the standard. A has a chief, a security chief, and is also the reserve captain of the civil defense regiment, responsible for the training of the first and the main protection of the male ding, the township has a township chief, and the captain of the civil defense regiment, who is responsible for the examination of the brigade, supervision and training, these positions are all held by the soldiers in the township, which can be regarded as government officials outside the "autonomous association", of course, they can be the official rank of the general staff headquarters, as "royal officials", they should naturally directly enter the village council and the village office. ”

Tang Haoran's proposal does not seem to be very new, after all, the armor protection system existed thousands of years ago, even now, although there is a village office, there is also a armor protection system, but this armor protection system is not so rigorous, and now the implementation of this system is undoubtedly to further master, more precisely, to control the countryside. In the same way, this is just looking for a "starting point", but the ultimate goal is to enrich the township servicemen to all angles of society, and to use the township servicemen to conduct military training for the people, so as to achieve the goal of "integrating the whole country."

Of course, the more important point is to divide the situation that with the traditional village kun leaving the countryside and going to the city, the rural power is all behind the teacher, after all, as the emperor of the empire, he has to think about the future, considering the possible hidden dangers in the future, and from the perspective of power balance, using one group to balance the power of another group is the real way of stability, the court is like this, and the same is true for the locality, checks and balances, power can only be balanced by checks and balances.

"Okay, take a look, according to the content of today's conversation, we have integrated some corresponding laws and regulations, and this year, we must do a good job of nationalizing the national military! After all, this matter is related to the future of the country! ”

After a slight pause, Tang Haoran, who stared at everyone, knowing that they did not know what kind of changes this movement would bring, continued.

"Okay, now that this topic is over, then there is another topic that needs to be discussed, that is, foreign affairs, and now, our foreign policy is directly related to the direction of the next ten years, what do you think about this?" (To be continued.) )
