Qiming 1158

Chapter 1181 Is this road going down step by step, or running?

There are also two attitudes in the center of the Revival Society regarding the unprecedented number of letters and the strong or less strong but still strong ideological tendencies expressed in these letters.

Some people support this idea, some people oppose it.

Those who agree believe that this is a precious revolutionary enthusiasm that should not be extinguished, but should be supported.

Support their passion, let their passion burn, burn down the old world and hasten the arrival of the new one.

Daming cannot stay in the old social form for a long time, but should transform to the new form as soon as possible, change everything, get rid of the old burden, and look forward with all his strength.

Otherwise, there will be a huge corruption storm similar to Hongwu's three or four years.

The damage that the corruption turmoil brought to the Renaissance Society and the Ming Kingdom is still lingering to this day. Many people are reflecting on why, why the comrades who once fought together will be degenerate and will be corrupted by money and extravagant life.

The answer now seems obvious.

That is to accept the situation of coexistence with the old forces, thus giving the old forces the opportunity to contact and corrupt the revolutionaries, and make the revolutionaries who are not determined to undergo changes, thus triggering a series of events, and then the scale A huge rectification operation.

After that turmoil, Su Yonglin publicly admitted his mistakes and put forward the slogan of revolution to the end, thus sweeping the corrupters and the old forces into the garbage heap of history.

Since then, the official governance of the Ming Dynasty has taken on a new look, and until now, there have been no major problems, at least no major problems have occurred within the Renaissance Society.

It can be seen that Su Yonglin himself admits that coexisting with the old forces is a wrong thing. In this case, how can they bear to continue to coexist with the old forces at the social level?

They must be completely swept away, and then a brand-new ideal society must be built on top of their corpses to complete the revolutionary ideal for which everyone fought and bleed.

If the revolutionaries cannot advance and continue to fight, they will retreat and ruin everything.

Is it difficult to do so?

Of course it is difficult, but since Su Yonglin was able to destroy the powerful Jin Kingdom in three years and accomplish what everyone thought was impossible, then it proves that it is not impossible to complete the revolution in 30 years.

As long as Su Yonglin leads them forward, as long as Su Yonglin leads them forward bravely, then everything is absolutely not impossible.

The number of central cadres who hold this concept is not large, but their voices are very loud. They hope to continue to replicate Su Yonglin's three-year miracle of destroying the Jin Kingdom in this matter.

Those who disapprove believe this situation is not normal.

They used Su Yonglin's own summary of the founding of the country as an argument and debated with the supporters.

They believe that Su Yonglin himself said that he was able to destroy the Jin Kingdom in three years because of great luck.

So he raised the banner of nationalism to fight, united all non-Jurchen ethnic groups, and gathered a powerful force in a short period of time.

Moreover, the internal contradictions of the ruling class of the Jin Kingdom were prominent at that time. The emperor Wanyanliang wanted to reform, but the internal conservatives were unwilling to reform, and tried their best to hinder Wanyanliang's policy.

Wanyanliang fought against the insurgents while fighting against the centrifugal forces within, and his own abilities were limited.

After Wanyanliang's death, Jin Guo did not have a unified command for a long time after that, and fought independently. Su Yonglin seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and overthrew the Jin Guo regime in one fell swoop.

This is a very lucky, dangerous and unrepeatable thing.

Although success is inevitable, the three-year success is very accidental. This was something Su Yonglin himself did not expect before the uprising, so that the Ming Dynasty was founded in a hurry.

Although Su Yonglin used the General Affairs Bureau of the Central Capital for a period of deliberation, there was still not enough time to accept a large number of old officials into the Ming government, which led to the subsequent major rectification incident.

The cause of this incident can be summed up as the rapid destruction of gold, the insufficient number of cadres, and the unpredictable difficulty of governing the country. Su Yonglin made a public self-examination for this.

That's why Su Yonglin defines his success as "lucky, dangerous and unrepeatable".

With such a definition, do proponents still force such a dangerous thing to do?
At present, the main problems facing the Ming Dynasty are restoration and development, the liquidation of the old society, the elimination of the old dynasties and the unification of China, and the completion of the task of diverting the Yellow River to restore agricultural production in the Central Plains and the Huaihe River region, and restore agricultural production to its best state.

These are urgent tasks.

Building an ideal society is the ultimate ideal that everyone agrees on, not a phased task. We should first complete the phased tasks that are visible to the naked eye, and then talk about the ultimate ideal, instead of treating the ultimate ideal as a simple task. .

The realization of the ultimate ideal requires too many prerequisites, without which the ultimate ideal cannot be realized.

Supporters are too radical.

Proponents shrugged off opponents' ideas.

Instead, they think that they are conservative and degenerate in thinking. This is not a normal phenomenon. Revolutionaries should always remain enthusiastic and not stop. Once they stop and are satisfied with the status quo, they will lose their enterprising spirit.

Once the enterprising spirit is lost, burnout will prevail, corroding the revolutionaries' will to fight, so that the struggle is finally defeated.

There are certainly reasons for the rectification incident, but it was also one of the important reasons why the stable internal development of the entire imperial court was the mainstream guiding ideology at that time.

But opponents still disagree.

They believed that Su Yonglin's statement that "social development has its own objective laws, and objective laws should not be forced to intervene by manpower" is very correct.

People have good and bad luck, and the moon is cloudy and sunny. This is a natural law, and it is impossible to change.

It will take two to three years to make a piece of wasteland normal to grow food, depending on the situation. Agricultural production is still so difficult, let alone building an ideal society?

Revolutionaries need to maintain their enthusiasm for struggle, but they cannot be blinded by enthusiasm, otherwise they will starve.

Once the stomach is starving, the brain will not be able to function well, and there will be serious problems. At that time, let alone the ideal society, it will be a problem whether the existing Ming Dynasty can be preserved.

The success of the revolution does not mean that one thinks that it is successful, it needs the unanimous approval of the general public, and isn't the approval of the public a prerequisite for a full stomach?
Doesn't matter matter?
Supporters and opponents accuse each other of being [conservative] and [radical], accusing each other of thinking something went wrong, and having heated debates with each other.

From the center of the revival to the local branches, such disputes are everywhere.

For such a big debate, only Xin Qiji, Kong Maojie and other senior officials of the court and senior officials of the Renaissance Society did not speak.

Taking into account their identities and influence, they felt that if they made a public statement, the revival that they might cause would cause internal divisions, so they did not respond publicly.

But they all presented forms to Su Yonglin, hoping that Su Yonglin would say something to quell the dispute.

Therefore, when the Ming Kingdom won the second Ming-Song War and started the economic war against the Jiangnan Kingdom with great strides, when the recognition of its own advanced nature and the correctness of the road within the Ming Kingdom once again increased on a large scale, There was also an ideological battle within the Ming Kingdom.

Should we go down the road step by step, or run?

In the face of this increasingly fierce ideological battle, Su Yonglin did not have a first position.

This caught the attention of Zhao Xirui, who had been paying attention to this matter all the time.

"It's so noisy outside, why is your emperor still acting like a normal person? When I go to the headquarters of the Revival Society to do business these days, I see a lot of people getting together and arguing every day, and I'm worried that they won't be able to do their jobs well. Already working."

During the rare rest day, Zhao Xirui checked her son's homework and asked curiously while watching Su Yonglin's writing and contemplation.
