Back to the Republic of China as a commander

With such clear support from Wang Zhenyu, Yan Yangchu and Liang Shuming actually forgot where they were, pushed aside their chairs in front of Wang Zhenyu, and started planning their ideal new village.

Liang Shuming excitedly said to Wang Zhenyu: "Thank you very much, Chairman Wang, we plan to set up a new rural construction department in Guangdong Province, and organize people who share the same ideals with us. Then through division of labor and cooperation, we will carry out this project. stand up."

Yan Yangchu interjected: "We should first establish schools in pilot areas, such as six-year or five-year compulsory primary schools. All school-age children aged 6 to 11 must receive compulsory education. For teenagers over school age, they must be educated." Compulsory literacy education and legal education will eliminate blind groups and blind consciousness from the root of ideology."

Wang Zhenyu smiled and said: "Your ideas are good, but they are only treating the symptoms rather than the root cause."

Hearing this sentence, Liang Shuming, who was a little pedantic, immediately turned his face: "Dare to ask Chairman Wang, what is the standard and what is the basis? Dare to ask the chairman how many books of the saint's book? Morality is the basis, and self-cultivation is the most important thing." It’s the teaching of a sage. I really can’t understand Chairman Wang why you want to ignore the basics and always emphasize the drive of profit? I have to remind you that this kind of thinking is very dangerous!”

This is the Republic of China, after the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, with Liang Shuming's tone of voice, what awaits him is the literary prison and the rightist hat.In fact, Liang Shuming was a rightist, but because he contradicted him in public, many people excused him.In the end, he was not sent to Jiabiangou, Gansu, and barely survived.

But the luckiest thing for Liang Shuming is that the person he said this to was Wang Zhenyu, who came from a later generation, and although he was promoted step by step in this era, he still had the same kind of heart as before.So Yan Yangchu's careful Long Yan was furious, but Wang Zhenyu said with a look of embarrassment: "It's true that I haven't read much of this sage book, and even if I did, it was mostly taken out of context."

Yan Yangchu was immediately knocked down by lightning, what's going on?

But Liang Shuming said relentlessly: "But you are the chairman of the national government who holds the real power? You are not alone, you are not alone! Once you make a mistake, the level of involvement will be huge. You are a follower of power and a habit of blind obedience. They will magnify your mistakes infinitely through their actions. If you really reach that point, the harm in the future will be great."

Wang Zhenyu nodded and said: "Mr. Liang's words are correct, but I still can't agree with your morality-based proposition. You can educate a person well, but if you have no clothes to cover your body and food to eat, you let him How can self-cultivation be the best? Does he want to solve the problem of eating, does he want to solve the problem of housing, does he want to solve the problem of marriage and reproduction? Come on, let me show you the case I received here, just yesterday, Just in Wuhan, two gangsters fought for territory, 3 dead and 17 injured. In Nanjing, two beggar gangs fought to divide the territory, 2 dead and 11 injured. If we can give them better choices, let They live decently, will they choose to live in this precarious gang life?"

"That's because they are stubborn by nature, and they don't accept the teachings of saints!" Although Liang Shuming was a little shaken, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on his point of view.

Wang Zhenyu shook his head and said, "Then I'm surprised. Among the officials in the former Qing Dynasty who were full of evil, how many of them had never been educated by saints? How many of them were not educated in poetry and books and passed the imperial examination? , where did the teachings of this sage go?"

"Chairman Wang, it seems that these officials are not the precarious poor people you said?" Liang Shuming felt that he had caught Wang Zhenyu's language.

Wang Zhenyu laughed three times and said: "They are indeed not poor, but they are also precarious. In order to be an official, they have to serve the superiors, and to serve the superiors, they have to be corrupt. And this is exactly the condition of the lack of a health system. The cost of evil has been greatly reduced, and they can't justify their corruption. This is the importance of system construction. Under a good system, no matter how bad people are, they have to restrain their arrogance. Under a bad system, No matter how good a person is, evil thoughts will breed. Don’t you two gentlemen say so? So what is the basis and what is the standard now?”

Liang Shuming was rendered speechless by the refutation, but he still turned his head to one side in dissatisfaction to express his attitude.And Yan Yangchu is much more flexible than his hard-headed one. He still remembered what he was going to do this time, so he pulled Liang Shuming's clothes and said: "Then Chairman Wang, according to your opinion, we are in Guangdong. How should work be carried out?"

When Wang Zhenyu heard this, he put away the pride he had just won after winning the debate, sat back on his chair, picked up his cigarette from the table, took out one and lit it, took a deep breath, and fell into a deep breath. meditation. . .

On December 12th, the vast rural areas have entered the slack season, and farmers in Guangdong are busy looking for fun and hoeing the land at this time.However, a bill affecting the future development of the Guangdong region is currently being debated and voted at the meetings of the two chambers of the Nanjing National Congress.This is already the third vote on the proposal called "Guangdong Provincial Reform and Development Plan" within half a month. The proposal was unceremoniously rejected in the previous two votes.Liang Shuming even got into a fight with the opposing political committee members at the meeting of the Senate, the brow bone was broken, and blood flowed all over his face.

But this time it will definitely be passed, which is guaranteed by Chairman Wang Zhenyu.Wouldn't it be that Wang Zhenyu would imitate a group of citizen petition groups to block the door, or imitate Cao Kun in history and mobilize a large number of soldiers with bayonets to intimidate the parliamentarians.Instead, Wang Zhenyu has done many things and even made many concessions for this reform in this half month.

The first thing is to agree to the request of Hu Hanmin, a member of the Tongmenghui, and promise to accept Sun Wen's recovery after January 1 of the following year, and support him to continue to exercise the power of the chairman of the National Government.Wang Zhenyu even asked Wang Longzhong to issue an amnesty decree against Wang Jingwei in order to urge the League to support Yan Yangchu and Liang Shuming's proposal.So the most ironic scene appeared, an assassination led by Wang Jingwei, the assassins involved, the high-level navy were killed, and those who were dismissed were dismissed, but the rightful owner Wang Jingwei was actually innocent.

The second thing is that the National Socialist Party is divided into three: the National Socialist Party, the Kuomintang, and the Chinese Progressive Party.Among them, the Tongmenghui formed the Kuomintang, while Zhang Taiyan's Guangfuhui chose to form the Chinese Progressive Party with the Progressive Party led by Liang Qichao.In addition, the ban on parties has been lifted to allow other political parties to come out.However, the discussion on the political reform bill will obviously continue, because everyone has been arguing about whether to go to the federal system in the United States or to go to a centralized system like France and Japan.Wang Zhenyu prefers federalism but dare not express his opinion casually. Therefore, in terms of political structure, the current county ruled by people is continued. However, it is very contradictory that when it comes down to the villages, it is possible to encounter new villages that are strongly promoted by the central government. Therefore, the direct control of the central government over the provincial governments will be retained for the time being.In the words of Shanghai Shenbao, the current national government is nothing like four.

The third thing is that the organizational structure of the national government will undergo a third large-scale reorganization. The candidate for the prime minister of the government affairs council and the chairman of the national government only have the right to appoint and remove, but not the right to nominate.At the same time, in response to the scandals that have been continuously exposed by the news media recently, Wang Zhenyu personally proposed to set up the Independent Commission Against Corruption under the name of the Chairman of the Nanjing National Government to be fully responsible for investigating and punishing illegal activities within the government. It also extends from within the government to the whole country. . .

In the end, the motion passed the vote with a support rate of 70%, and the personnel list was soon released.

Chen Shao, who had just made great contributions in the Tibet area, was recalled and directly appointed as the director of the Reform Commission of the Nationalist Government in Guangdong Province, the director of the Guangdong Provincial Government Affairs Office, and the director of the Political Guidance Department of the Guangdong Provincial Security Corps.Yan Yangchu was the head of the rural construction team in Guangdong Province, and Liang Shuming was the deputy head of the team. A vigorous reform of rural areas and farmers began in Guangdong Province.

Compared with the long-term and continuous nature of rural construction, the reform of the national government requires Wang Zhenyu to cut through the mess quickly.

The war in Europe has basically come to a standstill. Unlike in history, this time the Germans took the initiative to ask for peace.Because of the joining of China and the United States, Germany is already in a precarious situation.In real history, even at the most difficult moment in 1918, the German army unceremoniously defeated the British and French troops.

But this is not the result Wang Zhenyu wants. He hopes that the German sailors will launch a revolution under the leadership of the German gc party, then mess up Germany, and then run to the German territory by himself. Kidnapping technical talents, in short, is the same as the old Soviet Union's routine.To this end, Wang Zhenyu sent a secret message to Gu Weijun, the head of the Nationalist Government's foreign affairs corps in Paris, and Li Zongren, who had just arrived in France to serve as the third commander of the Chinese European Expeditionary Force: "Demand the unconditional cooperation of the Chinese European Expeditionary Force." orders from the Foreign Service Corps, and the Foreign Service Corps is to do its best work for the industrial development of the motherland."

In the appendix of the secret message, including engines, steelmaking technology and equipment, production equipment and technology of various chemicals, especially the production equipment and technology of poison gas bombs are listed by Wang Zhenyu.At the same time, Wang Zhenyu also asked Gu Weijun to try to get rid of all the foreign debts he owed, because just yesterday, December 12, he successfully reached a three-way agreement with Juncker, the Deputy Prime Minister of the Principality of Luxembourg and Prime Minister of the Interim Government of the Principality of Luxembourg. Agreement, the details are as follows:

First, it is agreed that Princess Charlotte will marry Wang Zhenbang, and after marriage, Wang Zhenbang will follow the princess to Luxembourg (the door went backwards).

Second, fully support the restoration of the Principality of Luxembourg, and at the same time send troops to escort Princess Charlotte back to Luxembourg to accept the position of Grand Duke.

Third, Luxembourg exempted all existing foreign debts in accordance with the friendly relations between the two countries, and transferred all buildings and equipment in Liuzhou City to the Military Commission of the National Government at a low price. . .
