"How come I haven't seen you talk recently?" Li Yannian asked Qi Rui as he walked.
Qi Rui replied calmly, "I don't know what to say."
This reason was so good that Li Yannian couldn't find a suitable response for a while. In the past few days, not only Qi Rui, but everyone also couldn't find a suitable question for the time being. Li Yannian and the others were very puzzled that they could persuade the Hokkaido army to choose to move north. The intermediate cadets were not teenagers who passed the examination to become military school students. These people were in their twenties and thirties. Before becoming a cadet, their military rank was at least a major, and lieutenant colonel was not uncommon. This made this group of people who were not familiar with each other, and in a sense, were in a competitive relationship. Everyone knew that some things couldn't be asked at all, and even if they asked, they might not get an accurate answer. What's more, the leader hadn't said anything, and it was not the turn of the cadets to say so much.
Li Yannian and Qi Rui were relatively familiar, and he couldn't help but come over to ask. Seeing that the first topic had fallen to the ground, Li Yannian simply talked about the problem he was concerned about, "How did these people in Hokkaido figure it out?"
"I don't know. But it's definitely not because of me, "Qi Rui replied.
In response to such a humble answer, Li Yannian laughed, "Haha, don't joke, after you told them those things, they went north. If you said it didn't have anything to do with you, who would believe it?"
Qi Rui's mood was stable, and he smiled slightly, "Old Li, if you see a person jumping to pray for rain, and then it rained. Do you think it was the person jumping to pray for rain? When the Hokkaido army went north, it rained, and I was the person jumping to pray for rain. If you really think that I prayed for rain, I have nothing to say. "
Such an answer was quite philosophical, and Li Yannian couldn't say anything for a while. He was quite surprised and thought for a while before continuing to ask, "Do you think they decided to retreat before?"
Qi Rui nodded, "At least some of them decided to retreat with a firm attitude, and there was no time for them to continue to talk nonsense. Right now, Hokkaido is very clear that the war has turned into a terrible one. Leaving the front line to regroup is probably the best choice. "
This was just the most basic strategic judgment. Of course, Li Yannian understood what Qi Rui was saying. What Li Yannian couldn't let go of was Qi Rui's position on this matter. Just like Qi Rui's analogy, if there was a drought, and the God of Sorcery performed a crazy dance, it would rain heavily. Gods naturally had the right to be rewarded. However, according to Qi Rui, it would have rained regardless of whether he jumped or not. In that case, where did Qi Rui's credit go?
Thinking of this, Li Yannian smiled and said, "Qi Rui, you're really humble."
"That's right. It's not appropriate to be too humble. You make it sound like you didn't contribute at all, "Ma Xiaoming chimed in after listening. Qi Rui could be humble, but the comrades around him could not. No matter how the Hokkaido Army operated or what kind of discussions went through. For the Liberation Army, the purpose of this group of students coming was to hope that the Hokkaido Army could go north. In fact, the Hokkaido Army could be considered to be going north at a very fast speed. The stage of the credit had been made. With the credit, it was necessary to divide the work. Qi Rui said it so casually. Was he not going to let the brothers divide the work?
Qi Rui saw these things clearly. He smiled and said, "I'm talking about doing things. The Hokkaido Army's choice to go north was not driven by me alone. As for the evaluation, that's the leader's business. Can I be more awesome than the leader? Why should I evaluate the credit for myself first? "
This time, both Li Yannian and Ma Xiaoming chose not to say anything for the time being, while several other students leaned towards Qi Rui. Everyone hadn't talked to Qi Rui for the past few days because everyone knew what they wanted to say, but they didn't know how to say it to Qi Rui. If Qi Rui was now complacent and said, "It's my credit that the Hokkaido Army was able to go north," then everyone really had nothing to say to him. Qi Rui knew his position very well, and his evaluation of his role was also very pertinent. This was the basis for the discussion about dividing the credit.
Dividing the credit was a very personal matter, and it was basically a zero-sum game. The total credit was only so much, and one more piece for one person meant one less for others. Qi Rui was right. This was a matter of the leader's decision. However, there were many factors that determined the leader's judgment. If Qi Rui could cleverly use his performance during the period, he would certainly have a reason to get more rewards. Just like the analogy of dancing god, if the person who paid for the god to dance god did not believe that the god's crazy dance was useful, then there would be no such thing as dancing god at all. Since someone had come out to dance god, it meant that the person who had the resources must have thought that it was useful.
This kind of strange low pressure made Qi Rui feel waves of discomfort all over his body. He was very clear about what these colleagues and students were expecting. That was the credit. In the intermediate training, if one could meet the standard, he would be promoted one level, but it was not so easy to meet the standard. These students who came together with him were appointed to work, and naturally had the possibility of meeting the standard earlier. The result of the Hokkaido Army going north meant credit, and everyone hoped that this credit could become a cornerstone for their future promotion. It was easy to understand their eagerness.
Thinking of this, Qi Rui suddenly felt that he was too naive. As Li Yannian said, he was "modest enough." Qi Rui now felt that if he could understand the basic principles, could this group of students and colleagues not understand? With the strategic literacy of this group of people, did they think that Qi Rui alone could persuade the upper echelons of the Hokkaido Army? If Qi Rui believed it, it could only be said that Qi Rui was really too naive. Now, everyone was worried that Qi Rui might have done something to it and take all the credit for himself.
After thinking this through, Qi Rui said in a voice that only the students and colleagues around him could hear, "Comrades, brothers. I will not put my position in the wrong position. If the leader asks me, I'll tell the leader what I'm telling everyone right now. I am just a member of the team, and all the credit belongs to the whole team. "
Some words could only be said to this point, and Qi Rui did not want to express too much. Unexpectedly, after saying this, Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "Don't worry, we all understand." Saying this, he lowered his voice and said, "Actually, I think we should be worried about the leader not taking all the credit."
"Haha", "Haha", "Hehe", all the students laughed. What Qian Duoduo said was the truth. The students valued the credit very much, but could the leader be exempt? If the leader could take all the credit to himself, everyone did not think that the leader would really be so selfless to give it up. After all, it was the leader who held the power to share the credit, not the students who did the work.
Qi Rui also laughed a few times, but at this time, he was thinking of his father Vézé. In terms of leadership power, there was no doubt that Vézé stood at the peak of power. Qi Rui now found that he actually did not understand what kind of person his father Vézé was at all. He was a father who loved his children, and he was a very serious and capable family educator. In addition to this, the only evaluation that Qi Rui could make of his father was probably a vague "for the country and the people".
Not long after the fall of the Manchu Qing. When Qi Rui was born, the Manchu Qing still occupied a large area of land north of the Huai River. At that time, most people thought that the Manchu Qing were the legitimate rulers. The people also agreed with the arrogance of the Manchu Qing officials, and the untouchable prestige of the Manchu Qing Emperor. In the eyes of the people, kneeling to the emperor and kowtowing to the officials was the natural thing to do. Being humble to the rulers was the duty of the people. This was not only the culture of China at that time, but also clearly ingrained in Japan.
However, in less than 20 years, kowtowing was abolished. With the development of productivity, the culture of society also changed. All of this was something that Qi Rui's father, Vézé, worked hard to promote. Before, Qi Rui felt that everything he received was what he deserved. Now, Qi Rui found that it was a miracle for him to receive such a degree of compensation for his work.
Just as Qian Duoduo said, if the leader really wanted to take the credit for himself, he could take the credit for himself. This was the most normal thing. What was abnormal was that these students dared to say this, and dared to laugh like this. Because everyone thought that this was wrong. Everyone believed that since they had worked hard for this job, they were entitled to a share of the compensation. It was not strange to think like this, but the most abnormal thing was that they thought it was reasonable. Because the system of the Min dynasty supported the system of those who worked and those who worked. But it was too easy to destroy this system. Qi Rui himself could think of many ways to destroy this system and take the credit for himself.
Qi Rui also found that he did not agree with this.
As the son of Vézé, as the son of his mother, Qi Hongyi. It was not that Qi Rui did not have the idea of inheriting the throne of his father, Vézé. But how to inherit the throne was a very inexplicable topic for Qi Rui. He had accepted the view of his father, Vézé, from a young age, "Reaping without sowing is shameful." Therefore, Qi Rui hoped to establish the same credit as his father, Vézé, and then take over the power in his father's hands.
After this incident, Qi Rui's mentality had changed. He felt that he could finally stand in the position of his father's successor and look at the problem from the standpoint of his father. This action, which should have drawn the relationship between father and son, caused Qi Rui more confusion. Finally, from the perspective of "Qi Rui is Qi Rui" and not "Qi Rui is Vézé's son". Qi Rui suddenly found that his father, Vézé, had created an unimaginable achievement. Not to mention being on par with his father, let alone surpassing his father, Vézé. Just to let his father, Vézé's achievement continue to operate, Qi Rui felt that it was completely beyond his ability.
Power was power, and power could decide too many things. A leader could decide the fate of his subordinates, and the distribution model. As long as those in a lower position chose to obey the system, they could only get what they wanted according to the rules of the system that they had no control over.
However, this seemingly omnipotent power itself was not as glorious as it seemed. Manchu Qing used to be extremely arrogant and was recognized as the imperial court. But when power fell to the ground, they could not even save their own lives, and after death, they were reviled as worthless.
