Chapter Eighty-Seven: Military Interference in Politics
In the modern history of the past life, military intervention in politics seems to be a derogatory term. Military interference in politics is easily associated with oligarchs and dictatorships. But this judgment is not fair.
When a country is still in the midst of change, sometimes the military is precisely the representative of the country's advanced culture and ideology. When the country lags behind, the first thing that comes to mind is the build-up of force. One of the ways is to send officers to advanced countries for military education and study. At this time, this officer will also be invisibly baptized by advanced culture and thought. When I returned to China at this time, I could feel the backwardness of my country.
The patriotism of military personnel will also make them want to make a difference for the country.
However, almost every soldier who interferes in politics does not end well, because the military does not know how to govern? The military advocates the use of force, or is the military not suitable for politics at all? No.
Military personnel are precisely adapted to modern politics, they are highly organized and suitable for forming political parties. They are highly learners and can quickly adapt to government work. They also have a high degree of self-discipline and are not susceptible to corruption. There are a lot of benefits.
But the military lacks a lethal factor, very deadly. legitimacy, it can also be understood that it is recognized by various groups of society and the people. Because the military generally achieves political dominance through a coup d'état, and it is a coup d'état with the nature of force. This undoubtedly carries the death penalty in the political sphere where the use of force is strictly prohibited.
So at first the military will be relatively smooth, but then the revolt will come. The various groups of society will be eager to get rid of them, even if they have behaved well and impeccable during their time in power.
This is also the reason why the modern military government cannot survive for long.
But Wayne is different, he wants the military to be involved in politics, not to govern. And it was he who was ordained, and in this era the nobility represented legitimacy. He can give legitimacy to the military who participate in politics.
Moreover, these soldiers are the most advanced of Nolan's thinking, they are exposed to equality, they know the preciousness of knowledge, and they are more receptive to new things.
He needed soldiers to bring a huge change to the dull politics of Nolan and Wasser.
Wayne picked up the roster that Beson had given him and picked it up.
Carol, a former artillery squad leader, has a disabled left hand and is now unemployed ....
Wayne made a lap.
Gomes former infantryman lost his legs and now home textile .....
Wayne moved on to the next one.
These soldiers have to go to the grassroots level to exercise, preferably without a disability in their legs, and be able to speak well. In this way, there is potential, and the effect of going to the grassroots level is also obvious.
In the end, Wayne elected about 300 people, and now take Nolan as an example, the government has 4,000 clerks. The structure is as follows: the Tax Cabinet and the Guard, which have recently been converted into police departments by Wayne, and because the concept of the legal system is not strong, there is no judicial department, and the basic judicial power is combined with the political power at the grassroots level. This has caused great corruption, and the experience of his previous life has taught him that the separation of powers at the grassroots level is the most perfect. Vasser is also largely consistent. The grassroots level is the street management committee, and the middle level of the district department, and the upper level is directly the city lord's mansion.
But Wayne doesn't have the energy to do this right now, and he needs the military to bring a bunch of culture to Nolan. Changing Nolan's officialdom style also has a reason to cut off those officials who eat and don't do things.
And these and the military first have to be sent to receive the management council, and it is best to start touching the management of a street, and Nolan has four districts. Streets are unevenly distributed.
The southern and northern districts are prosperous commercial districts with a large population flow and mixed population. There are 20 people in the police station and 100 people in the street management committee.
The East and West Sides are industrial areas developed by Wayne, with a relatively single population, basically workers, and service personnel engaged in service personnel, although the population density is large, but the difficulty of governance is also small, and the main person is responsible for the improvement of the streets, etc., each with 30 people. The police station is divided into 10 people each.
And then even the Department of Revenue, which is the department that surprises Wayne the most. It is said that this department has the most oil and water, and it is more likely to breed corruption. But somehow, this is the most incorruptible department in Nolan, and its efficiency is also highly surprising. But that doesn't mean Wayne won't be transformed, thirty.
There are still seventy people left for me to go to Longji City to lead Wayne personally, and Wayne has long been tired of the landlords there. He needs a production team, a big socialist family. Only in this way can the production of grain there be greatly increased.
As for the more detailed division, he needs to find Evans to divide.
Evans, on the other hand, was working on the road west of the city, which was a freshly poured concrete road. At the bottom is the honest dirt that has been trampled on, covered with a layer of gravel and then poured with cement. Lay it out with a wooden plank, fence it off, and dry it in the sun.
Such a small project didn't need Evans to do it personally, but for the next phase of Wayne's transportation network, he took advantage of this practical opportunity to bring a few more apprentices.
"Ettore, tell me about the ratio of cement, sand, and water. ”
A man who seemed to have some experience immediately replied.
Report Master Evans, 1:3:0.6. ”
Evans nodded with satisfaction, these apprentices brought by himself all took night classes, and they also knew the words "New Era Soldiers". And it also counts.
Otherwise, I don't know how much effort it will take to start all over again. Through this incident, he also gradually understood what Wayne meant when he said that the quality of the population is also part of the strength of the city.
At this time, there was also a person who was silently watching from the side, the censor Thorin!
He hadn't left yet, and he felt that there was something he hadn't figured out about Nolan. He intends to see more.
And this cement road, he also watched it for a few days and witnessed it from scratch. Evans came to teach every day, and he couldn't hear it when he stood far away, but he could guess that it was the professor's apprentice.
He also took the opportunity to go to the night class, but because of his short stature, he didn't occupy a good position, so he had to listen with his ears. The teacher in front of me was talking about "New Era Soldiers" that he had read countless times in the past few days. And he can also feel the blazing eyes of those people around him for knowledge.
The civilians of Rune's imperial capital boasted that they were superior to the civilians of other cities, but they didn't know how to feel when they saw this scene.
And those policemen, who used to be called guards, are now police. Patrolling the streets every day, changing into a uniform black uniform, similar to Nolan's military uniform. Both are two large pockets on the chest and two large pockets on the waist. It is extremely suitable for the human body and can greatly improve people's spirit. And these police officers have significantly improved law and order in Nolan.
Thorin didn't expect Wayne to do these measures, and he could understand the road construction. The cement road is many times better than the previous dirt road, which can greatly improve the speed of the march. The police maintain law and order.
But he really didn't know why to make civilians literate.
