There were bad people among the comrades who could get into the upper ranks of the Liberation Army, but there were no fools. Benevolent people see benevolence and wise people see wisdom. The more capable people are, the more they can understand other capable people. Qi Rui led everyone to talk about facts and reason. In the end, all the comrades had to admit one thing. Their success depended on their own efforts, and more importantly, the system provided opportunities for everyone.
"My father often told me many times that he and a group of meritorious ministers had killed the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, and the Prince like slaughtering chickens and dogs. Like slaughtering chickens and dogs, they had killed tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of various princes, nobles, and officials. Like slaughtering chickens and dogs, they had killed millions of different kinds of Manchu Qing lackeys. I still remember when I was a child in Nanjing, I saw the hanging of Manchu Qing princes and ministers. I think the comrades in Nanjing have probably seen it. "Qi Rui asked many of the comrades who attended the meeting.
Among the hundreds of people, there were more than a dozen descendants of the revolutionary heroes who lived in Nanjing who raised their hands to show that they had an impression. That execution was completely open. Vézé wanted the people to see how lowly the nobles were killed. At the same time, he wanted to strengthen the deterrence of the "Lowly Law".
"Those people's ancestors were really emperors. They were officials themselves, and their children used to rely on their power to flaunt their military prowess. They were feared by the local people. What happened to them in the end? These people suffered a crushing defeat in the foreign war and were beaten to the ground by the small British. These people cruelly harmed the Chinese people in all kinds of ways. So the foreigners beat up the former ruling class of China, and the Chinese people rose up to resist the former ruling class of China. In the end, these people died without a complete corpse, and these people were completely buried. Standing on the ground where these people were buried was the Pillar of Shame. When future generations mention Manchu Qing, they remember the crimes of Manchu Qing. So, as the Min dynasty that overthrew Manchu Qing, what should we learn from them? "
It had only been 61 years since the Jintian Rebellion of 1850 and New Year's Day 1911. Many of those who had participated in and experienced this great historical change were still alive. For this group of people in their 30s to 50s, this period of history was indeed history. However, this period of history was not unrelated to them. It was this period of history that determined the fate of these people's families.
"The strength of the Liberation Army lies in our advanced system. From everyone's self-introduction and analysis and discussion, I think everyone understands that we rely on this advanced system. If we destroy this system ourselves, we will be walking down the same path as Manchu Qing. We appoint people by favoritism and don't look at contributions at all. Or they would arrange for their children and relatives to be on lucrative jobs and reap the benefits. Let others who are able take the places of labor for the privileged group of our children and relatives. Then, in a few years, we will have the same result as the Manchu Qing. We painstakingly want our children and relatives to enjoy wealth and glory forever. In the end, our descendants will be killed like dogs, and their corpses will be strewn all over the ground. After they die, they will also be endlessly cursed. "
Qi Rui repeated his father's words to everyone. Because he completely agreed with his father's words, Qi Rui spoke calmly and sincerely. This kind of historical perspective was already very impactful to hear from a war zone political commissar. The war zone political commissar was the eldest son of His Majesty Vézé, so the impact of his words was doubled.
"This is all history that we have seen with our own eyes. This is also the history that China has repeated for thousands of years. No one can say that we can be different. When the previous dynasties were founded, those people thought that they could be different. The tragedy of the ruling class of the previous dynasty would not be repeated in the new dynasty no matter what. In fact, as long as we are as corrupt and degenerate as the previous generation, we will push our children and relatives into the abyss with our own hands. This result is the same every time. If we repeat the same mistakes, we will definitely die without a burial place! No one can escape! "
This meeting lasted for four days. On the fifth day, the North American War Zone Party Committee made a decision to carry out a major rectification and training activity in the entire army. The forerunner of this major rectification and training activity was naturally a crackdown on criminal activities. All personnel involved in the sale of license plates to the outside world were arrested, and after all illegal gains were confiscated, those peripheral members were stripped of their military positions and driven out of the army. Those core members were handed over to the military court for trial and sentencing.
With this as the beginning, a number of illegal activities in the army were fiercely cracked down. The army strictly ordered that except for all social public services that were allowed to be provided to the outside world after discussion by the military region party committee, such as weather forecasting, hydrological data, state-level mapping services, and engineering blasting, the army cut off all services provided to the society.
After the North American War Zone Party Committee gave the order, Qi Rui found that he did not feel guilty. He could not help but feel that he had grown a lot. Most of these paid services were decided and implemented by Qi Rui and the party committee at that time more than a decade ago. At that time, North America had just been conquered, and the North American part of the Min dynasty was a super large barracks of more than a thousand square kilometers. At that time, the role of the army was irreplaceable.
Therefore, Qi Rui was very satisfied that he could keep up with the times. Yesterday's stepping stone was today's stumbling block. Of course, it was wrong to stand still. It was not only actions that kept up with the times, but also thoughts. In retrospect, many of the external services that were in trouble now were completely necessary at that time. It was just that Qi Rui's level of understanding of interest groups at that time was relatively low, and he could not adjust in time. Yesterday's good and today's evil could not be equated. Only by recognizing this could one be considered to keep up with the times.
Qi Rui remembered that his father Vézé often said, "This is not the same thing." Specific problems and specific analysis should be like this.
Under this shock, Qi Rui's secretary suddenly told Qi Rui a piece of news. "Political Commissar Qi, we caught the murderer who killed comrade Zhong Fugui!"
"Oh?" Qi Rui was quite surprised. He thought that he paid attention to the internal work of the army, and this kind of outside murderer could only be solved after a long time.
Just as the secretary was about to report, Qi Rui waved his hand. "Don't tell me the results yet. I have work to do now. When I'm done with today's work, tell me specifically in the evening. "
"Okay. I will ask the comrades in charge to prepare again. "The secretary quickly said. In the past ten days, Qi Rui had been very busy. Of course, the secretary knew that Qi Rui was not in the mood to care about this matter, but he was very concerned about it.
At this time, Qi Rui had to meet with several comrades from the military subdivision. They were all young comrades. At least from the perspective of Qi Rui, who was in his forties, the political commissar in his early thirties was indeed a young man. When the young political commissar saw Qi Rui, he immediately stepped forward and saluted. Before sitting down, the young political commissar who was the leader of the young political commissars immediately said, "Political Commissar Qi, we have encountered difficulties in our work. Many comrades don't respect the working people, but some comrades think that the working people are not the masters of the country. Some comrades think that the working people are not honorable. These political commissars and I know that losing our temper won't solve the problem, and it's useless to say empty words. If we can't solve this problem, we will feel suffocated. So we came here to ask for guidance from Political Commissar Qi. "
This question made Qi Rui's eyes light up. Looking down on the working people was a problem that would arise in the growth process. In a sense, it was still a relatively advanced problem. At least, that was what Vézé said. A relatively advanced problem had arisen during the army's rectification. Specifically, this problem itself was a very troublesome and difficult problem to solve. But on the whole, this proved that the Liberation Army itself was constantly improving.
"Sit down first and explain the situation." Qi Rui was ready to listen to everyone's explanation with great interest.
Another clerk was called in, and the two clerks quickly began to take notes. A good memory was not as good as a bad pen. One of Qi Rui's daily tasks was to set aside time to read through the day's work records. Even if he had to postpone a little work because of this, Qi Rui insisted on doing so. It turned out that this kind of "revision" was very beneficial. After adopting this method, the deviation in Qi Rui's work was significantly reduced. Qi Rui was not the only one who benefited. After the secretary reread it at night, because he was not affected by the mood when talking about work, many problems that could not be seen at the time could be clearly seen when he reread it afterward. Asking humans to be in a rational state at all times was obviously a request that was not realistic.
The report took more than two hours. When Qi Rui saw them, it was past two o 'clock in the afternoon. In the blink of an eye, it was five o' clock in the afternoon. The secretary looked at the time and hurriedly signaled to stop. After that, he asked in a low voice, "Political Commissar Qi, I have an appointment with the comrade who reported Comrade Zhong Fugui's case to arrive at 5: 30. Do you want to see him? "
"When that comrade arrives, inform me immediately," Qi Rui replied.
After the secretary left, Qi Rui said to the group of political commissars, "I have a meeting in half an hour, which is expected to take about an hour or more. If I have that meeting, comrades, go eat first. We will continue to discuss after eating. "
The political commissars looked at each other first, and the leader asked, "Political Commissar Qi, you … how are you going to eat?"
"I'll make a working meal to eat a little when talking about work. Don't worry, I've been in a war. I know the importance of eating, and I won't starve myself. Haha. "At the end of his speech, Qi Rui laughed heartily.
The age of the political commissars was in their thirties, and only the oldest one participated in the last year of the North American War as an ordinary soldier. When the others heard that Qi Rui's life was so simple, they were quite surprised.
Qi Rui didn't want to prove how hardworking he was, so he continued, "I heard part of what you said just now. As for the views of comrades, I think there are two directions. The first direction is that everyone has a different definition of workers. Our Min dynasty's industry has developed rapidly, but at this stage, it is not a completely industrial society. Many of our views are still from the perspective of an agricultural society. In an agricultural society, between the owner-farmers with land and the landless sharecroppers, they will generally agree with the owner-farmers with land. Because land is an asset in everyone's eyes. Between the long-term workers who sell labor and the short-term workers who sell technology, they will generally agree with the short-term workers who sell technology. If they agree with the long-term workers, it is also because the long-term workers have a relatively stable income. In general, everyone will more agree with those who have more production materials, and more agree with those who have mastered technology. Don't you think this makes sense? "
This was not a big reason, it was a normal value judgment. The political commissars agreed with this, but they themselves did not dare to say so to the commanders and soldiers. After the Min dynasty implemented state ownership of land, private land disappeared. His Majesty the Emperor did not have an inch of land that belonged to him, and ordinary people did not have their own land.
