Qiming 1158

Chapter 358

After Su Yonglin and everyone else had arrived, he announced the official start of the meeting.

But what he said at the beginning was not what everyone thought.

but a different thing.

"The reason why the Guangfu Army is called the Guangfu Army is because we exist to overthrow the Jin Kingdom and restore the domination and status of China in the Central Plains. The so-called expelling the Hulu, restoring China, and taking back the land of Shenzhou that originally belonged to us from the Hulu.

So, at the time of the uprising, I named this army the Restoration Army, but isn't our mission just overthrowing Ginting and restoring China?I don't think so. After overthrowing Ginting, we have more important tasks! "

Su Yonglin unfolded a map of the Central Plains.

"That's what I've always said, we not only want to overthrow Ginting, but also build a country where everyone can eat and wear clothes and won't be bullied. This is my greatest wish, but if we want to do this Everything, we still have a long, long way to go.

Right now, the most intuitive thing in front of us is the flooded Yellow River and the vast disaster-stricken areas. The victims of the flooded Yellow River are tossed to death by the flooded river. We are lucky that the Yellow River has not burst this year.

However, this does not mean that the Yellow River will not burst. Once the Yellow River bursts, it will be a raging flood and a tragedy in the world. That is something I absolutely cannot allow. So after the overthrow of Ginting, one of the things we have to do is to manage the river.

If the Yellow River is not rectified, the entire Central Plains will continue to be broken and withered. Even if we overthrow Jin Ting and restore the Central Plains, we will not be able to keep everyone fed and clothed. After a flood, nothing will be left. . "

Su Yonglin pointed to the map behind him, and looked around at the civil and military subordinates he had called for a meeting. Seeing their different expressions, he laughed.

"Don't think I'm joking, I'm very serious, I must do this thing and restore stability to the Central Plains, maybe you will think that this is something that the Song Kingdom and Jin Kingdom have not done, it's difficult, but I'm not afraid.

The problem is here, if you don't care about it, it will flood into a disaster, and the grain you have worked so hard to grow all year round will fail, and you will starve to death. "

After Su Yonglin finished speaking, Wei Kexian suddenly raised his hand to signal that he wanted to speak. Su Yonglin nodded and let him speak.

"Alang, did you call us here just to talk about river governance?"

"Only?"

Su Yonglin looked unhappy: "Is it a trivial matter to manage the river? The two big powers are helpless to manage the river, and they are almost caught. Every time the Yellow River bursts, thousands or thousands of civilians will be drowned. Is this a trivial matter?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant."

Wei Kexian immediately shook his head: "I mean, is Alang just talking about the management of the river?"

"of course not."

When Su Yonglin said this, many people froze in their hearts and became nervous again.

But what Su Yonglin said was still not what they wanted to hear.

"To manage the river requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and a competent authority department that can handle affairs is required to be fully responsible for handling this matter and coordinating everything. It needs to mobilize millions of troops and civilians from top to bottom, and it takes at least three years before and after the first meeting. This is still my best estimate.”

Su Yonglin sighed and said, "Those ancestors of Zhao Gou couldn't defeat the Khitan people, and they couldn't take back Yanyun, so they could only toss their own people. Sanyi returned to the river and destroyed Hebei in a mess. In the Jingkang year, Tokyo stayed behind Du Du. In order to escape, he dug the Yellow River dam and flooded the Central Plains, which directly led to the diversion of the Yellow River and seized the Huai River into the sea to this day.

They don't care about everything, leaving this mess to toss the people of the Central Plains, and now they don't even want to come back to solve the problem, they just want to stay in the south of the Yangtze River to live a happy life, the lives of the people in the Central Plains are nothing in their eyes... They don't care, I do. "

Su Yonglin slapped the table and said solemnly: "If you want to manage the river, as I said, it requires a lot of manpower and material resources, requires the cooperation of several departments such as the Grain and Pays Department and the Guidance Department, and requires the cooperation of the local government. impossible.

I thought, river governance is a long-term task, not something that can be done in just a few months. Instead of piecing together things and temporarily mobilizing a large group of people to take charge, it is better to set up a department dedicated to river governance now. , put up the shelf first.

Therefore, I decided to establish a new department in charge of river governance, and dispatched the competent people needed for river governance from various departments into it. success. "

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't understand what Su Yonglin was doing, so they continued to listen.

"This new position is different from the general government office, nor is it an official government office, but it does the same thing. I am going to name it the Revival Society, and I will take care of it myself."

"Renaissance meeting? Alang is in charge of himself?"

There was a lot of discussion below.

"Well, the Revival."

Su Yonglin nodded: "Since it's not an official government office, it's more casual to name it and list it. As for the name of this revival association, I think we can make the Central Plains, which is in ruins, rejuvenated and prosperous by controlling the river, hence the name. Revival.

All of you who have ideas or opinions on river management, you can put them forward to me and submit them to the Renaissance Society for discussion. After that, I will also arrange relevant personnel to put up the framework of the Restoration Society, and then choose the right one among our entire Restoration Army. talents are included in the revival.

In any case, the Fuxing Association must first come up with the river management strategy, and then the specific work will be done. To do things, it needs to coordinate various personnel and mobilize the human and material resources of the people. The people in the Guidance Department are the best at this, so the Fuxing Association mainly includes Guidance staff to enter. "

Tian Guizi was stunned for a moment, then thought of something.

Xin Qiji was also stunned for a moment, as if he noticed something.

But most people didn't notice Su Yonglin's intentions, just watched Su Yonglin go further and further away from the topic, a little anxious.

They came to the meeting, not for this revival meeting, but for other things.

Although this revival may sound unusual, Su Yonglin is personally responsible for it, and a large number of staff from the Guidance Department must be included.

The Guidance Department itself is a special existence. It is responsible for guiding soldiers' cultural and ideological learning in the army. It is the only way for recruits to become soldiers of the Restoration Army.

The soldiers who have been guided and educated by the Guidance Department have not only made breakthroughs in culture, but also ideologically inclined towards Su Yonglin and the Restoration Army. They are full of vigilance and hatred for Jin Ting and even Song Ting, and they train very seriously.

But it's not necessarily true if it's just that they are teachers of soldiers in the army.

They have a great influence in the army. When they are not fighting, the officers must follow them to study.

Outside of the army, it is said that the place where the military dependants live is where the instructors of the Guidance Department are in charge of management. They set up a peasant association in the village, and the instructors under the jurisdiction of the Guidance Department enter it as vice-chairmen, serving as the communication between the Restoration Army and the people. bridge.

The Grain and Salary Division, an important organization responsible for collecting taxes and maintaining the survival of the Restoration Army, contacted the Farmers' Association through the Guidance Division to handle tax collection matters.

In both the military and the civilian population, guidance divisions and instructors have a strong sense of influence and presence.

It is said that there is no real power, no military power, no political power or financial power, but it seems that they can be seen everywhere. Without them, it seems that nothing can be successfully accomplished.

Therefore, in order to manage the river, a large number of instructors from the Guidance Department are needed to help, and it is only natural.

But Su Yonglin suddenly called everyone, just to talk about this?

Just to explain that I want to set up a new department to be responsible for river management?
As if it was really just to talk about this matter, Su Yonglin didn't say anything else, just explained that everyone should pay attention to the work of the revival meeting, and planned to announce the end of the meeting.

So Su Yong, this foolish man, couldn't take it anymore, so he stood up straight and cut to the chase.

"Alang, you have something to say about that Khitan man becoming the emperor!"

"what?"

Su Yonglin looked at Su Yong strangely: "What do you mean? What do you want me to say?"

"This……"

Su Yong opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, and the other people at the scene didn't know what to say, and the whole scene was extremely embarrassing for a while.

Su Yonglin was silent for a while, then smiled.

"Oh, I see, do you think I called you here to discuss the matter of becoming emperor with you?"
