Chapter 1521 Fully embrace grassroots workers

Needless to say, because Daming's official position is stable and has the style of an iron rice bowl, after the three major purges, some officials who have been severely impacted have become lazy.

They began to focus on doing more, more mistakes, and less mistakes. They believed that as long as they did not make mistakes, they could keep their iron jobs, and it was okay to do nothing.

The key is not to do wrong, everything else can be put in the back.

The central government is okay, because there is direct supervision by the Supreme Court, and there are still some that the situation is even more serious in the local area. Anyway, it is more self-reliant if the emperor is far from the sky, and the sky is high for me to fly.

As long as you don't do it, you won't make a mistake, so I don't do it.

This situation has gradually spread across the country since the tenth year of Hongwu. After receiving repeated reports from the local revival organization and the public opinion consultation room, Su Yonglin became vigilant.

So Su Yonglin also took this opportunity to tell them that after eating this bowl of rice, you must do this thing, one radish and one pit, if you don't want to be pitted, then abdicate and let the sages, don't think this is an iron rice bowl, if you don't move, then I will melt your iron rice bowl.

This move is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the believers of "do not do well", so all the people who were not promoted in this departmental merger but were demoted and retained are all such people.

They complained, but they were despised by others and could not make any waves.

Of course, they don't have to feel so frustrated and dissatisfied, because not only the Ministry of Personnel has been "absorbed".

In addition to personnel power, military command power cannot be ignored.

In the past, Su Yonglin used the General Staff Headquarters to command the army, the Privy Council to lead the army's logistics, and the Renaissance Society's Military Affairs Department to manage the Renaissance Society organizations throughout the army. In fact, he controlled all the movements of the army and ensured that the army was under the control of the revolutionary forces.

Now that the time is ripe, Su Yonglin has decided to combine the General Staff Headquarters and the Military Affairs Department of the Renaissance Society into one, forming a brand-new military department of the national military commanding authority.

The department also takes the Renaissance Organization as the core leadership organization. Su Yonglin, the former director of the Military Affairs Department, became the director of the Daming Military Department, and Xin Qiji became the deputy director of the Military Department as the former deputy director of the Military Affairs Department and chief of staff.

This reform in fact confirmed the absolute leadership of the Ming Dynasty's military power in the Renaissance.

The complete control over the military command and the internal organization of the army made the army completely under the control of the Renaissance.

During this wave of reforms, some senior positions in the original General Staff Headquarters will also be merged into the newly established Military Department, and mid-level and senior positions will inevitably be cut, and naturally some people will feel dissatisfied.

But there is no way, Su Yonglin's prestige is too high, and the military department is the department he personally nominated. Although some officials in the staff headquarters were dissatisfied with their reduced positions and the loss of welfare, they felt that they joined the department that Su Yonglin personally nominated. longing.

This kind of admiration and longing for Su Yonglin offset their dissatisfaction to a certain extent, so that the reorganization and reconstruction of the Military Department encountered even less resistance than the merger of the Personnel Department and the Organization Department.

The merger of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Organization was a real quarrel.

Although lazy politicians don't like to do things, they can still do things like fighting for their own welfare.

Fortunately, before the merger, Pan Yongjian's explosion and the cronies he belonged to were all swept away, and the number of competitors was reduced, which to a certain extent reduced the difficulty for officials of the Ministry of Personnel to enter the Organization Department and transfer jobs.

However, the long-term suppression of power by the Organization Department made some officials in the Personnel Department very resentful and opinionated, and they were not very cooperative with the reorganization work, which brought some trouble to Zhou Chong and Di Liao.

With Su Yonglin's prestige still there, people may have grievances, they may fish for fish, and they may feel weird, but they don't dare to really oppose or prevent this large-scale change.

Even if their interests are really damaged.

This is the biggest problem and dead end of reform.

If you can rush over, the reform will be successful, and the reformer will most likely become a valuable corpse after many years.

Fail to dash, and the reformer will quickly turn into a worthless corpse.

As for Su Yonglin's position and timing, it is destined that he will stand in an unprecedented position and promote this reform with an unprecedented huge impetus. At present, the resistance he encounters will be far less than that of his peers.

After Su Yonglin's large-scale reform of the superstructure was carried out, the Privy Council, the only remaining military department of the imperial court, became the real logistics steward.

However, the entire leadership of the Privy Council, with the exception of the privy envoy Sun Ziyi, is all members of the Revival Society, so it is actually another organization of the Revival Society, under the leadership of the Military Department.

So far, in the top-level design of the Ming Dynasty, the personnel power and military command power have been completely controlled by the revolutionary forces, both in de jure and in practice.

Holding two extremely important powers in his hands, the Fuxing Society's presence in the court has been greatly deepened, and even jumped up, in a sense, ending the court-dominated, court-dominated, court-based Fuxing Society since the establishment of the Fuxing Society in the early years of Hongwu. The revival will be supplemented by the situation.

This was the afternoon of December 11, [-], the superstructure reform plan announced by Su Yonglin just before the New Year.

This major reform directly achieved the political situation of the Ming Dynasty, which began in Hongwu 12 years, with the revival organization as the main body and the various departments of the court as supplementary.

And for the realization of this situation, the revolutionary forces in the DPRK and China rejoiced, and everyone celebrated, celebrating this great victory belonging to the revolutionary forces.

The hidden opponents with dark minds are like mourning concubines. They only feel that the things they dream and pursue are getting farther and farther away from them, and it is impossible to pursue them and go back to the past.

The reactionary forces were crushed, unable to resist in the face of Su Yonglin's huge prestige and habitual fear.

Ordinary officials with neutral political stances who have not participated in the Renaissance organization are still in a calm mood, but they are also clearly aware that in the future political situation of the Ming Dynasty, if they cannot have the status of a Renaissance member, I am afraid it will not be so easy to stand out.

However, from a practical point of view, Su Yonglin began to strictly control the number and quality of members of the Renaissance Society ten years after Hongwu, and it was already quite difficult to join the Renaissance Society.

After Hong Wu's ten-year-end assessment, one-fifth of the members were kicked out of the Renaissance Association for various reasons. Those who wanted to join the Renaissance Association later had to go through rigorous assessments, and they didn't relax at all.

Therefore, the number of new members who successfully joined the revival society in Hongwu's 11 years has greatly decreased compared with previous years, while the number of people who tried to join has continued to increase.

Joining the revival is not as easy as it used to be.

For example, in the sixth and seventh years of Hongwu, court officials and newcomers to the imperial examination were almost able to participate in the interview and assessment as long as they submitted an application. The interview assessment was more like a cutscene.

Some people who found a referral from a member of the Renaissance did not even need an interview and assessment, and they could join directly.

Su Yonglin was very angry when he learned about it. He severely cleaned up the organization department of the Revival Society, and then tightened the entrance. He also conducted a series of assessments on those who had already entered, and brought in many people with other purposes. kicked out.

The chances of court officials and newcomers to the imperial examinations wanting to join the Fuxing Association were greatly reduced.

But from another perspective, the revival organizations in local villages, local workshops, and the military have shown relatively positive acceptance of grassroots members, and the local organization department will even take the initiative to develop members among these groups.

It's just that these people's cultural literacy is relatively low, and the road to improving their cultural literacy is still relatively long, so not many people have successfully passed the assessment.

As a result, the growth of the membership of the Revival Society became relatively slow during this period, with little fluctuation.

Finally, some people concluded that the current admission of new members by the Fuxing Association mainly focuses on the groups of farmers, workers and grass-roots soldiers, and their willingness to accept other groups is relatively low, and they are more cautious about applications submitted by non-member court officials.

The revival society began to remove malicious speculators from within, and instead embraced grassroots laborers and fully represented their interests.
