Chapter 117 Attacking the heart is the best
"Of course, as long as everyone works together, this is not a dream," Wei Aiwen began to outline the future: "Everyone has been here for a month, how is your life?"
"It's nothing to say, they've given out new clothes, and the food is plentiful and good. Where can I find such a good job?"
"I was given shoes to wear. I couldn't bear to wear them when they were given to me for the first time. I had never worn such good shoes before." A soldier was wiping his tears. "Later, the commander said that he had to wear them. If they were broken, they were given to him again. They all survived. I haven’t worn a pair of good shoes in more than 20 years—" He started crying and burst into tears.
In fact, these so-called good shoes are not even cloth shoes. They are just straw sandals with a cloth sole sewn on them and cloth strips on the uppers. They are more comfortable to wear than pure straw sandals.
"But -" Wei Aiwen's tone changed, "We poor people are living a good life. Will those landlords, commanders of thousands of households, and robbers and bandits just watch us enjoy our happiness? Just like you, you think you can come to Qiongzhou to open up wasteland. Live a good life, what’s the result?”
Everyone's eyes suddenly widened. When Wang Tao saw that the heat was up, he immediately gritted his teeth:
"No, we must not let them take away the fruits of our labor in vain."
"That's right," Wei Aiwen raised his voice, "We ordinary people have been bullied by big officials for generations. They enjoy hot and spicy food every day, and rob us of the common people when they have no money. In the past, we had no backbone, so we had to cry in our stomachs. "Liu, now that the short-haired master is backing us, we have big iron ships and fast guns, and we also have swords and guns in our own hands, can we still let them do evil?"
"Then you have to ask me if I can accept the gun in my hand." Wang Tao made a bold gesture, assuming a pose like Li Yuhe in "Red Lantern Diary".
As expected, the emotions of the "non-agreeing" masses were aroused. The soldiers from several communes in the company were those with vested interests and felt the most.
"What if they want to take it by force."
"Then beat his mother"
Wei Aiwen saw that the fire was almost done, and then said: "As long as everyone works together, everyone will be proud and live a better life. We don't have to dig wild vegetables to satisfy our hunger. We can eat white rice and fish every day, and have good clothes and shoes. Everywhere. Build a building and install air conditioning to keep the winter warm and the summer warm. There are also electric lights. When they are lit, the whole house is bright, which is tens of thousands of times better than this kerosene lamp. Children can go to school, study, and have compulsory education. Our country has also become prosperous and powerful. The space shuttle was also successful, and we even applied for the Olympic Games. Anyway, all this will come true." Wei Aiwen secretly complained. He was so excited just now that he suddenly stopped talking. He said everything he should say and shouldn't say at once. Got out. Fortunately, everyone has no reaction to words like "air conditioning" and "Olympic Games", but they are quite fascinated by the life of not having to eat wild vegetables.
After the meeting ended, Ma Qianxu pulled Wei Aiwen and gave him a thumbs up: "Hey, Xiao Wei, you are really good. This meeting was a great success. Everyone recalled the past together, and everyone gritted their teeth and hated it. If you do this, at least it is ours. People."
Wei Aiwen's face was full of pride: "This is a piece of cake. I'll wait for it later. I have more ideas."
My heart is full of tears: My last Coca-Cola has been replaced by these things, Yu E Shui, you are too beastly
The next day, Wei Aiwen's set of things was compiled into materials by Ma Qianzhu and distributed to each company commander for study. Wang Tao, a fellow time traveler, also had to be temporarily kicked out of the dormitory area - he was no longer a "leader", his identity was a soldier of the first company of the teaching camp. Every company held theme meetings and called him to give reports. This Wang Tao was a trainer, and he relied on his words. He also studied storytelling in his spare time. Not only did he talk about things with emotion and emotion, but he also often used buttons to make everyone want to stop. His scripts became more and more complex, and in the end Ma Qianzhu had to remind him not to make things too outrageous.
However, this education method of remembering hardships and thinking about sweetness is not enough. Based on the experience of Xi Yazhou and others in Yanchang Village, Ma Qianzhu organized people to write a booklet, focusing on the slogan of the time travellers: "Eradicate the strong and eradicate the evil." , protect the environment and the people" to make a fuss. At the same time, a few more active people from the commune-born soldiers were selected and given special political training.
"The core of political work is to cultivate loyalty to us." Ma Qianzhu emphasized this point at a meeting of new army officers. "I personally think that ordinary people don't necessarily love the government very much. To them, the government is just an authority that they must obey, not the country in our concept."
Of course, cultivating loyalty cannot rely on a few slogans. No matter what political theory, no one can effectively protect his own interests. As soon as the Anti-Japanese War ended, they carried out large-scale land reform in the liberated areas, thereby gaining control of the people's hearts and giving themselves a stable base and an endless supply of troops. This is more effective than talking about class consciousness eleven thousand times.
Providing the new army with a living standard that far exceeds that of local people and even commune members, they will be full of nostalgia for such a life and regard the time travelers as their great benefactors. Once their interests are tied together, they will go through life and death in order to travel across sentient beings. For travelers who have no foundation and are incompatible with this society, luring them with benefits is the most effective and fastest way.
As for organizations such as Ma Qianzhu's Soldiers' Committee, they were barely established under the sole control of the time travellers. Although most people were skeptical of such soldier democracy - many people even cited counterexamples. But Ma Qianzhu still insisted on doing it. The reason is naturally because after the reorganization of Sanwan, the soldier committee and the branch were built on the company, and they played a magical role in transforming the old army-almost the same as opening a golden finger.
If it worked for old armies like the National Revolutionary Army, it would be equally effective for their new armies drawn entirely from white paper.
Naturally, Ma Qianzhu couldn't do the trick of building a branch in a company, otherwise the rightists in the executive committee would have to eat him up. However, the Soldiers Committee has the banner of democracy as its tiger skin, and no one can do anything about it. To show the importance he attached to the matter, he also served as director of the battalion-level Soldiers' Committee.
The Soldiers' Committee has five main tasks: first, to participate in military management; second, to maintain discipline; third, to supervise the company's economy; fourth, to carry out mass movements; and fifth, to carry out political education for soldiers.
Its system is completely modeled on the Soldiers' Committee of the Red Army era, with the lowest level being set up in the company. The entire company's soldiers' meeting elects 5 to 7 or 9 people as executive committee members of the company's Soldiers' Committee and recommends one director. The battalion elects one representative for every five people to form the battalion soldier committee, elects 11 to 13 people to form the battalion soldier executive committee, and elects one person to be the director. By analogy, each civil service committee does not have a standing committee.
Regarding the relationship between the Civil Service Committee and military agencies, the Civil Service Committee can only make suggestions or question certain issues, but cannot directly intervene or deal with them. When soldiers have a meeting, the chief officer must be present, and closed meetings are not allowed. In times of war, military commanders can suspend various activities of soldiers' committees to prevent extreme democratization.
Of course, the Soldiers' Committee, which is managed by the time travellers, has no concept of democracy at all. Anyway, the "chiefs" asked them to elect, so they held the election. As for what the election was for and how to do it, they were all confused. Ma Qianzhu knows that this thing is only superficial at this stage, but he doesn't like the argument that "democracy must have a foundation"--sometimes it has to be a mess.
The time travelers decided to let the new army soldiers start with the simplest self-management, including arranging housekeeping in the squad, cleaning, and managing meals. The interests of the soldiers have been protected, and with the feeling of being the masters of the country, enthusiasm will be aroused and the sense of responsibility for troop building will be strengthened.
Tian Liang was released from the quarantine camp in Bopu. During these days in the quarantine camp, he had classes every day to read and read, and did some simple manual work. His body and bones became stronger, and he could also roughly read the "textbooks" that were sent to the camp as reading materials for them every day. Tian Liang was very happy. It seemed that the master here was going to promote them - at least he would be a manager or something. There was no need to be literate to be a slave.
In my free time, I sit behind the barbed wire fence with a few friends of similar age and watch the lively scenes on the training ground across the water. The best friends he made in the camp were the three brothers, Du Xingruan. After arriving here, they were named Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi according to their ranking.
Now, even a fool knows that the master who bought them is not a rich man at all - does a rich man train his own soldiers? There are country warriors in the countryside, he knows this - Tian Liang often ate these when he was wandering. We have seen them rob lone business travelers on the road, but how can those bumpkin compared to the people on this training ground? Tian Liang saw the battalion training when he was in Guangzhou, and they were considered the elite of the official army. However, compared with the soldiers on the opposite school field, I always feel that they are not as spirited as here.
The soldiers were all bare-headed, wearing short clothes, and looked capable and agile from head to toe. They walked in a uniform formation, and even when they lifted their legs, they were straight. They chanted slogans all day long during the drill. This was an eye-opener for them, although it was a bit strange - the soldiers were carrying wooden sticks to practice, so how could such a rich man not be equipped with a few spears?
The strangest thing is that although it doesn't rain here, you can always hear the sound of thunder, sometimes continuously throughout the day. Later, I heard people say that it was the gentlemen blowing up cannons. The fact that the old man still had cannons made them even more incomprehensible.
Finally one day, they were called up to bring their things. It's time to allocate places.
Boys under the age of 13 go to the "Junior Primary School". It is said that this is where they study. Tian Liang is already fifteen, so naturally he cannot go. Those over 13 who are good at arithmetic or show other talents Those who had the highest status were sent to "technical schools", and those who had no talents or specialties were all admitted to "military and political schools".
This school proposed by Ma Qianzhu did not have a school building. The children were all issued military uniforms and organized into the "student team" of the teaching camp. They also followed the adults and carried wooden sticks to go one-two-one.
Tian Liang wanted to know where Guo Fu had arranged to go, but the girls were assigned on another day. Later he found out from the aunt who delivered the meal that girls under 13 also went to the "junior elementary school", and the others were all Entered a "technical school".
"I heard that after you learn skills in school, you will be assigned to the chiefs as maids." The aunt seemed to be very envious, "They are all lucky children.",.
