The core five-member committee of the Viceroy's Mansion consisted of the leaders of the party, government, military, industry, and justice departments. The core five-member committee of the Commander-in-Chief's Office is composed of the party, government, military, industry, and judiciary. If it must be said, Vézé does not have such a strong personality, but he does not know how to establish other types of political systems. And Vézé has only one education since childhood, "the knife handle should be in your own hands."
There is no doubt that this committee is the standard model in the handshake of knife handle.
As the Commander-in-Chief of the Commander-in-Chief's Office, Vézé's Military Committee is responsible to Vézé himself, so he himself is the head of the Military Committee of the five departments. The party affairs department is temporarily under the charge of Wu Qilu of the Political Department. The head of the government department at this stage is Bi Qingshan, the "director of the Guangdong Land Issue Office". The industrial department is actually the industry and commerce department. After Li Yuchang, the head of the Huizhou merchants, handed over his work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he completely devoted himself to this department. The head of the judicial department is Lin Asheng.
This kind of meeting of the Standing Committee is basically held frequently. In policy-making, it is necessary for everyone to meet frequently. Therefore, Lin Asheng naturally brought the issue raised by Hong Renxuan to the Standing Committee for discussion.
"The British are unfathomable, and I have long felt that we can't make any concessions to them!" Although Li Yuchang was a Huizhou merchant, he was originally a quite elegant guy, but after personally participating in the tit-for-tat struggle for interests, the murderous aura on his whole body became more and more intense, and the elegance dissipated day by day.
Vézé supported Hong Renxuan at that time, "Minister Hong has no problem in doing things, and can grasp the policy. He doesn't want to go to war with the British so simply. I don't think he is wrong."
"You can't let him mess around!" Li Yuchang is not as tolerant of Hong Renxuan as Vézé.
Vézé waved his hand, "Let's not talk about Hong Renxuan first, let me tell you my point of view. We are responsible for making policies here. Hong Renxuan does not have the authority to make policies. His duty is to implement policies. So the standard of our evaluation of Hong Renxuan is not what he does to our satisfaction! Instead, we should use his practice to prove whether there are problems with our policies, and through his practice, we should use his practice to prove whether there are problems with our personnel arrangements and our own ability to implement policies. We don't judge a person for doing a good job by telling him to get something done and then letting it go. Those who do not abide by the precepts are called violence; those who do not obey orders are called thieves. "
Wu Qilu was in charge of the party's communication. He listened attentively to Vézé's words and took notes from time to time. Bi Qingshan and Lin Asheng were both experienced people. What Vézé said made them think about it and nodded slightly. On the other hand, although Li Yuchang had been a merchant before, he had never really commanded an army or engaged in a lot of administrative work. Therefore, at this moment, he felt even more displeased.
Vézé continued, "Punishing without teaching is called tyranny, failing to observe success is called violence, and failing to obey orders is called banditry. If you don't make adjustments during the process and insist on getting the results you want, that's tyranny. If you slack off at the beginning and suddenly give your subordinates a completion date, that's a thief! Therefore, when we do things, after we make our own policies, we first have to let the comrades below understand the policy. We have to constantly test their actions in the process to see if they deviate from the policy. We can't just ignore it at the beginning and then suddenly tell them the completion date. We have to take responsibility ourselves. This is democratic centralism. "
Li Yuchang was speechless, but his still tight mouth, slightly frowning, and especially the serious expression on his face showed that he was still very emotional at this time.
Vézé said with a smile, "Then let's confirm again. The policy we made, and the basic conditions of the policy we made at the time, have there been any changes? Who's going to say it first? "
Li Yuchang didn't say anything. This was because he was very angry, and secondly, he joined late and had a low status. He didn't have the opportunity to intervene in many policy-making processes, and he didn't have the ability to intervene in the discussions.
Bi Qingshan, who was the head of the government, said, "When we made the policy, we didn't consider the British's position, nor did we consider the British's attitude. At that time, the military believed that the British would not interfere in our operations in Guangdong in the short term, so we could seize this opportunity to increase the import of industrial products with the British. As for the other policies, when we made them, our only goal was to quickly achieve full control of Guangdong. Now, we have basically completed the task. "
After the head of the administrative department finished speaking, the head of the judicial department, Lin Asheng, said, "We set up a line of defense between Hong Kong and Guangzhou. When we dealt with the group of people who smoked cigarettes, we also targeted the local tyrants in Guangdong. We didn't directly attack the British tobacco merchants. Now that the market has recovered, we have basically completed the task. "
After the other two finished speaking, Vézé turned to Li Yuchang. "Comrade Li Yuchang, it's your turn."
"Me?" Li Yuchang was stunned. He said hesitantly, "I was in charge of diplomatic work at the time, but I don't do that anymore."
"Just talk about the work you were in charge of at the time, the policy you made, and the implementation," Vézé corrected him.
Li Yuchang finally understood. He thought for a moment and said a little unconfidently, "I was doing business with foreigners. From the introduction of cannons to the introduction of ironmaking technicians, and the introduction of rubber seeds, these tasks have all been completed."
After waiting for them to finish speaking, Vézé said, "Then the work we made half a year ago has now been completed. The original policy has led to a result, and the conflict between us and the British has intensified. Obviously, when it came to formulating policies in the future, since the British had considerable strength, the British's reaction could not be completely ignored when formulating policies in the future. That's probably what happened, right? "
After listening to this simple summary, the other people at the meeting thought for a while and agreed that things had indeed reached this point. Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Vézé said frankly, "We don't have a navy, and our armed forces at sea are weak. It's very difficult to compete with the British at sea. That's why I didn't want to go to war with the British from the start. We want to defend against the enemy outside the country, but it's obviously impossible. If the British attack from the sea, how are we going to defend and counterattack? We don't have the relevant experience. "
Vézé's frankness stunned everyone. Until today, the impression that Vézé gave everyone was that he was calm and could always come up with various ways to win a battle. This was the first time that Vézé admitted that he didn't have the confidence to win.
Lin Asheng, who was second only to Vézé in his military career, said, "Commander-in-chief has no intention of admitting defeat."
Vézé nodded and smiled brightly. However, everyone could see that Vézé's eyes were not smiling at all. Not only was he not smiling, but Vézé's eyes became extremely sharp. It was a gaze filled with the will to fight. Vézé's voice was filled with enthusiasm. "Of course I have no intention of losing. The British dare to be so arrogant because of the military power in their hands. They have a powerful navy and a very good army. The reason why they dare to fight us now is nothing more than to open up the China market and make a lot of money from the China market. I can tell you now very clearly that I don't really care about the British making money. As for business, it's fine as long as they can maintain the balance of imports and exports. This isn't just a personal thought. I've always thought so. The problem now is that the British think they can use force to deal with us and force us to sign an alliance. I want to go to war with the British now to dispel this unrealistic idea of the British. They don't expect to be able to make me lower my head by force. Of course, I don't know if my comrades think the same as me? "
"The British barbarians don't even think about fighting me!" Li Yuchang said.
"I used to follow Commander-in-chief, and I will follow Commander-in-chief in the future!" Lin Asheng did not say anything harsh.
"We fought until today, and we will naturally continue to fight!" Bi Qingshan's attitude was very clear.
"Subordinates obey their superiors. Of course, we will obey Commander-in-chief." Wu Qilu's attitude was also very clear.
Of course, Vézé's question was not to let others sing a different tune to him. If anyone dared to have cold feet or an attitude of fear of war, Vézé would immediately find a way to get rid of that person. Since these people had made it clear, he continued to speak in a very rational manner. "So, we fight for peace. We refuse to let the British make money by selling cigarettes, but that doesn't mean we refuse to let the British make money in China. Now, I'm going to introduce the history of the British to let everyone know why the British are so powerful. Why they don't take us seriously at all. "
The crisis brought great danger and put a lot of pressure on people. However, Vézé firmly believed that the crisis was also an opportunity. At least half a year ago, if Vézé had put forward the opinion that the British were powerful, his men would not have cared. Because the conflict between the Commander-in-Chief and the British was far from fierce to the stage of war. Now, even without Vézé's emphasis, the senior cadres began to listen very carefully to the history of the British.
After spending nearly two hours listening to the history of the British's domination of the world against a map of the world, they also learned about the history of Europe. Although the comrades were a little dazed, their attitude towards the British also unconsciously became rational.
"The British were founded on industry and the sea. It seems that they are really amazing!" Li Yuchang, who was originally very dissatisfied with the British, could now speak in a very rational manner. And this attitude was also approved by the other three people.
Vézé took a sip to moisten his throat. "I'm talking about the British now because war may break out soon. But what I want to say is that China is not a small island country. Our area is almost equal to the area of the entire Europe. We are not divided like Europe, constantly at war with each other. Do you think I'm afraid of war with the British? "
Everyone shook their heads. So far, even if the British were described very clearly, Vézé's attitude was still full of confidence.
"The crisis of this war is admittedly very difficult, but I believe that we can get through it. By the time the British believe that they can't conquer us with force, they will have already paid a huge price. Even if it is to earn back the money, the British will be forced to choose to live in peace with us. At that time, not only do we have to do business with the British, we have to learn industry from them. As long as we also develop industry, provide social services including education to the country, and build a modern nation-state. Then, we only need to bury our heads in work for thirty years, and we will become a country stronger than the British. At that time, we will be able to build a new China that is unprecedentedly powerful, with a territory several times larger than the current one. At that time, the British will be nothing. "
Vézé's voice carried a hint of passion. With a faint cruel smile on his face, he said with a firm attitude: "We are all very young. I believe that everyone will be able to see, when we become strong, how we will smash the British's balls! They will definitely roll on the ground, wailing and begging us to go around them. At that time, we will be able to look down on them and tell them that they brought all of this upon themselves! "
