Chapter 084
Cheng Shijie didn't know whether he should give ideology to an army. As a grassroots cadre, he knew that he should give ideology to the workers.
From 2008 to 2013, these were the five years when China's economy took off at a high level. However, it was also the darkest five years for Hansteel Group. Those who did not understand English, did not have a high degree of education, and had no chance of promotion. Countless people with second or third grade Workers with ten or even thirty years of advantage have been eliminated from the frontline workforce.
Employees are not allowed to have any non-work-related communication with each other. They only do their own things. They are not allowed to ask about or interfere with matters that are not related to their positions. Under the management of this returnee faction, Hansteel Group not only failed to develop effectively, but also experienced a serious decline in production capacity, production efficiency, and production quality.
In a small business, although the train can be driven by a locomotive, it is indeed possible for a small business to develop rapidly with a powerful locomotive.
However, the problem is that Hansteel Group is not a small company. It is a company with 30 wholly-owned or wholly-owned subsidiaries, covering 11 areas including energy, chemical industry, mining, smelting, precision instruments, automation control, special steel, etc. Industry, a large group company with nearly 400,000 registered employees.
Relying on the energy and ability of the leadership alone is far from being able to move this huge train forward. Such a huge train requires not only a steady stream of power from the locomotive, but also the efforts of all employees.
The same goes for companies and the military.
This is the most obvious difference between the ancient army and the professional armies of later generations. The professional armies of later generations will not have rewards of hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. The current reward standard for Cheng Shijie to Ning Haijun's fallen soldiers is twenty taels of silver. , plus one hundred acres of land.
The value of these lands is as high as about one thousand taels of silver. Even if the current price of food in Dengzhou City is as high as eight taels of silver per stone, one tael of silver can only buy 235 jins (500) grams of rice. If the price is 2.99 yuan per jin in later generations. Calculating the price of rice, the purchasing power of silver in the Ming Dynasty is equivalent to 702 yuan in later generations.
There are also other calculation methods. Applying this basic calculation method, the prices in the late Ming Dynasty are actually not too low. For example (Lao Cheng moved a set of data)
Wheat: 1 stone = 0.81 taels * 704.3 = 570.48 yuan / 188.8 = 3.02 yuan / catty;
Glutinous rice: 1 stone = 1.12 taels * 704.3 = 788.82 yuan/188.8 = 4.18 yuan/jin;
Black beans: 1 stone = 0.44 taels * 704.3 = 309.89 yuan/188.8 = 1.64 yuan/jin;
Soybeans: 1 stone = 0.535 taels * 704.3 = 376.80/1888.8 = 1.99 yuan/jin;
Mung beans: 1 stone = 0.71 taels * 704.3 = 500.53/188.8 = 2.65 yuan/jin;
Sesame: 1 stone = 1.3 taels * 704.3 = 915.59/188.8 = 4.85 yuan/jin;
Some prices in the Ming Dynasty were even much cheaper than in later generations. At least soybeans, mung beans, and sesame seeds were cheaper than in later generations.
Let’s look at the price of war horses.
Mounting: 30*704.3=21129.00 yuan;
Kansai launch: 21.4*704.3=15072.02 yuan;
China and Malaysia: 20*704.3=14086.00 yuan;
Kansai Central Malaysia: 14.3*704.3=10071.49 yuan;
Dismount: 16*704.3=11268.80 yuan;
Kansai dismount: 11*704.3=7747.3 yuan;
It's basically the same. If every tael of silver is equivalent to 704.3 yuan, the gold pension for Ning Haijun's fallen soldiers is equivalent to 718,386 yuan, which is not too outrageous.
Through the mutiny of Ning Haijun, in fact, this was the ideological evolution of Ning Haijun. At least they all have a unified understanding. If Cheng Shijie is here, they will have a good life. If Cheng Shijie is gone, they will not have a good life.
This independent thought may not necessarily be correct, but it is a breakthrough from zero to nothing.
In all mutinies in the past, there were only three possibilities: either there was a lack of military pay, there was no food to eat, or they couldn't survive.
But Ning Haijun's mutiny was the most incredible kind. It was not for money or food, but for their general. This was actually the germ of Ning Haijun's thoughts.
This is a seed, this is how they started to think independently. An army with ideas can easily crush an army without ideas. Even if their equipment is not as good as the other's, even if their military strength is not as good as the other's, even if they are short of food and clothing.
During Mao Wenlong's era, the Dongjiang Army never had a mutiny. Even if they had no food, grass, or equipment, many people would freeze to death every day and many would starve to death.
At that time, Mao Wenlong had given the Dongjiang Army the idea that they wanted revenge and took back their homeland. This was their idea and their belief.
After Mao Wenlong's death, the Dongjiang Army's ideas and beliefs collapsed, so they began to break the rules.
The seed of Ning Haijun's thoughts will gradually grow into a towering tree. At this time, there will be no way to suppress it.
Since you can't suppress it, you can only guide it slowly.
Guide and guide Ning Haijun's thoughts from narrow personality worship to the right path. Cheng Shijie kept thinking about it on his way to Dengzhou City.
How to guide Ning Haijun's thoughts.
As a cold wind blew, Cheng Shijie's brain instantly became clear. He looked a little unhappy when he saw Chen Guodong riding a war horse and slowly advancing with the team.
Chen Guodong is not like Song Xiance. Song Xiance will hide what he is thinking, which is what people call the city. Zhou Yandong can also do this. Of course, in front of Cheng Shijie, whether it is Zhou Yandong or Song Xiance, their hearts... It can be seen through by Cheng Shijie.
Because he suffered discrimination, Song Xiance's real idea was to trample under his feet those who looked down on him and those who discriminated against him in the past, robbed them of their lifetime wealth, and let their wives and daughters live in front of him. Humble begging for life.
Zhou Yandong's idea is the most common, that is, to honor the lintel of the family and the ancestors.
Shen Mingyu was feeling frustrated. He had to work hard, forge ahead, and prove to his biological father: "Old guy, you are wrong, your son is better than you!"
Changyu's thoughts are more pure, that is, promotion and wealth...
As for Chen Guodong, he actually has thoughts, but his thoughts are on his face: "Shen Ming is a layman and has no leadership skills. Chang Yu is a young boy. If I go to bed, I will be stronger than them..."
"Guodong, come up!"
Cheng Shijie waved to Chen Guodong and said, "Let's talk!"
"It's... the handsome man!"
Chen Guodong also knew that things were different now, so he gave the Tang straight knife that Cheng Shijie had given him directly to the driver of the carriage.
"sit!"
Cheng Shijie took the teapot on the table in front of him and poured Chen Guodong a cup of tea.
"Bad mood?"
"No?"
"Is it because I didn't promote you to an official position?"
"no!"
Chen Guodong looked at Cheng Shijie and said, "Commander, I..."
"You are a good soldier, a good soldier with ideological consciousness!"
Cheng Shijie said: "Do you know that I asked you to lead the troops before, but now I don't let you lead the troops?"
"I don't know... I don't know!"
Cheng Shijie said: "This time, I was assassinated and almost... This time Ning Haijun launched a mutiny, and you also made great efforts. Although it was a big mistake and put Ning Haijun in a desperate situation, Merits are merits, and faults are faults. Merits and faults cannot be offset. I have never engaged in the practice of outweighing merits and demerits. If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have faults, you will be punished. But what?"
Chen Guodong lowered his head and said: "My life was given by the commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief can take it back at any time!"
"What would I do with your life?"
Cheng Shijie picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Your decision is right. If you don't stand up and fight, I might be killed. I didn't let you go down to lead the troops because I am not practical here!"
Cheng Shijie patted his chest: "Now our Ninghai Navy has expanded its navy to more than 8,000 people. The cavalry has grown from scratch to more than 2,000 people. In addition, the people of the former Denglai New Army and the Guns and Artillery Bureau have just been produced. With the twenty-four Thunder Guns coming out, our Ning Navy now has more than 20,000 troops. Among the more than 20,000 troops, there is a mix of fish and dragons. The forest is so big that there are all kinds of birds. Some people are of the same mind as me, and some people are of the same mind. We are not of the same mind as me. Some people seem to be in harmony with each other, while others are just being hypocritical. Can I be practical? Let alone solid, I can’t even sleep well!"
Chen Guodong's eyes widened: "Is it so serious?"
"What do you think? Let's talk about Navy Vice Admiral Shen Shikui first, right?"
Cheng Shijie took out a letter from the roster: "Shen Shikui, Chen Jicheng, and Zhang Pan were the three heroes under Mao Wenlong and Marshal Mao. Later, Zhang Pan died in Lushun, Chen Jisheng was killed by rebels, and Shen Shikui is now the oldest veteran of the Dongjiang Army. Right? Even Huang Long, the current commander-in-chief of the Dongjiang Army, is slightly underqualified in front of him, right?"
"this……"
Chen Guodong sighed and said: "Shuai Shen is a businessman and is not valued by everyone!"
"Then he is a senior person who doesn't even obey Huang Long. Why would he obey me?"
Cheng Shijie smiled softly and said: "Is it because I am handsomer than him? Or am I taller than him? Actually, it's neither, because he has no choice but to stay dormant temporarily!"
When Cheng Shijie went back this time, he also found out that Shen Shikui's son Shen Zhixiang was actually Duke Shunshun of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he was the first generation Duke Shunshun. The title of Duke Shunshun continued to the Guangxu period. This was a hardcore traitor. .
This had to make Cheng Shijie wary.
"this……"
Chen Guodong hurriedly explained: "My disciple previously held a low position in the Dongjiang Army. I know very little about this secret matter!"
"I understand!"
Cheng Shijie continued: "There are also Chen Shiyou and Liu Chengzu of the navy. They are both at the rank of deputy general. From the second-grade official position, will they be willing to join me? I don't believe it. Who can be trusted by Ning Haijun now? I don’t know who is untrustworthy!”
"The commander-in-chief means..."
"Your place is here!"
"Monitor!"
Cheng Shijie said: "Since he is a supervisor of the army, I have awarded him the title of General Guangwei of the fourth rank, and his actual post is the Superintendent of Ning Haijun."
"Supervising the army, isn't it all done by eunuchs?"
"That's right!"
Cheng Shijie said seriously: "Eunuchs are all slaves of the emperor. They keep an eye on the emperor and monitor the armies!"
Now the structure of the Ning Navy is loose. Cheng Shijie controls the infantry force of the Ning Navy through Shen Mingyu, Chang Yu, Cheng Shi, and Cheng Hu, the navy force through Li Zhixiang, the artillery force through the artillery Yuan Shiliang, and the cavalry force through Zhao Wencai. force.
However, there is another problem with this indirect command, which is reflected in Sun Chengzong. Sun Chengzong was the original founder of the Guan Ning Army. In the second year of Tianqi, Sun Chengzong was worried about the situation in Liaodong. As a bachelor of Zhongji Palace (chief assistant of the cabinet), he invited himself to go to Liaodong to supervise the army. Emperor Tianqi trusted Sun Chengzong very much and ordered him to serve as his original official. Supervise the affairs of Guancheng and Ji, Liao, Tianjin, Deng and Lai.
When Sun Chengzong arrived, he found that the soldiers previously locked up were undisciplined and that a large number of unqualified people pretended to be paid. So after Sun Chengzong reviewed the military, he sent back all the unqualified soldiers from Henan, Zhending and other places. Seven thousand of the refugees rescued by Lu Zhijia were recruited to garrison Qiantun, and the Liao troops recruited by Yang Yingqian were sent to garrison Ningyuan...
The Guan Ning Army is because Yuan Chonghuan only has military power in Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan towns, so he can be called the Guan Ning Army. The predecessor of the Guan Ning Army, this army actually belongs to Sun Chengzong, just like Steve Jobs to Apple.
At that time, a series of generals, such as Zu Dashou, Yuan Chonghuan, Man Gui, Zhao Lijiao, He Kegang and a large number of generals in the late Ming Dynasty, were all promoted by Sun Chengzong.
Since then, the generals under Sun Chengzong ranged from Datong to Xuanda. You Shilu was also a general promoted by Sun Chengzong, including Liaodong. Sun Chengzong could influence decision-making and military operations through generals. But the problem is, there are people who treat Sun Chengzong like a thorn in his back or a lump in his throat.
Now that Guan Ning's army is strong, it's time for the original founder to retire.
However, the problem is that Man Gui is dead, Zhao Lejiao is dead, Yuan Chonghuan is dead, He Kegang is also dead, and the only surviving Zu Dashou is surrounded by the Daling River. Who is the most worried?
It must be Sun Chengzong, because through Zu Dashou, Sun Chengzong could influence Guan Ning's army. In the second year of Chongzhen, Zu Dashou heard that Yuan Chonghuan had been arrested and questioned. He was so frightened that he took more than 7,000 Guan Ning's cavalry and ran to Shanhaiguan. Sun Chengzong persuaded Zu Dashou to come back.
As long as Sun Chengzong does not step down and remains on the stage, whether he is the chief minister of the cabinet or the cabinet minister, he will feel blushing. In terms of seniority, who can compare with Sun Chengzong, the veteran of the Four Dynasties and the great scholar of Zhongji Palace? Under normal circumstances, Sun Chengzong's Grand Bachelor of Zhongji Palace was the standard configuration for the first assistant.
Therefore, in this case, it was not just Emperor Chongzhen who was sitting on the throne, but the four elders of the cabinet. So Guan Ningjun made one move after another, two thousand, six thousand, six thousand, this is Typical fueling tactics are also a taboo for military strategists. Doesn’t Sun Chengzong understand?
Understood, but there was nothing he could do.
Without Zu Dashou, the nominal boss of the Guan Ning Army, Sun Chengzong's hands would not be able to get into the Guan Ning Army. In this battle of Daling River, why could Zu Dashou run back to Jinzhou alone after surrendering?
The answer is actually very simple, because Zu Dashou was betrayed by his brother-in-law and his old subordinates. If Zu Dashou died, the Wu family could replace the Zu family and become the leader of the generals in western Liaoning.
How smart is Huang Taiji? What's the use of wanting a mortal ancestor to live a long life? It would be better to let Zu Dashou go back and let Zu Dashou serve as a troublemaker within the Guan Ning Army. Sure enough, after Zu Dashou returned, Wu Xiang became a prisoner and was questioned.
But the problem is that Emperor Chongzhen is still too young to be able to play with this group of old foxes, and he has no opinion yet. Once he was fooled, he burned his anger on Sun Chengzong.
Sun Chengzong was unable to defend himself at this time and had no choice but to resign.
Sun Chengzong was tricked because the generals he passed directly commanded the army. As long as the other party killed the generals, Sun Chengzong would have nothing to do. Whether it was Man Gui or Zhao Lijiao, including Zu Dashou and He Kegang, they all got the full set. Moreover, it was a trap set by an insider, and he was tricked to death.
Cheng Shijie thought for a long time and decided to learn from Tong and establish a branch.
Cheng Shijie doesn't have a Tao that belongs to him yet, so he will build the supervisory army in Si Shang.
Ning Haijun's establishment is one team of twelve people, four teams of fifty people per sentry. Three infantry posts, one fire support post, two hundred soldiers, a baggage transport team directly under the General Command, a communications and guard team, a military law team, and a medical team, a total of three hundred people.
The army of 300 people, Cheng Shijie's target, was actually an outstanding figure of Jiannu. Slavery is the nature of the tribal alliance of slavery. Although it is said that a cow record of 300 people is not enough, under normal circumstances, the number of 300 people is not compiled. It may only be 200 people, or it may be 250 people. Sixty people, maybe only a hundred people.
Under the attack of a fire support post with eight thunder cannons and 240 fire cannons, and with more than one hundred and fifty crossbows, there was a good chance of blocking Jiannu's charge.
As a basic tactical unit, if the Chief Executive who controls the walkie-talkie is instigated or killed in battle, the Deputy Chief Executive cannot actually take over.
As an agency cadre, Cheng Shijie knew very well that deputy directors, including his own deputy director, had always been guarded and suppressed by his immediate superiors and principals. When his boss died suddenly, Cheng Shijie could not directly take over the large affairs of the agency office. of.
This requires a certain amount of time to get used to and a certain amount of time to master. In this case, a hidden team must be supported, just like the shadow troops in the Soviet army. When a Soviet unit went to the front line, a team headed by deputies immediately began to implement an expansion plan. Even if the original team was exhausted, the shadow troops would transform into a new army.
The branch is established on the company, and it is not as simple as setting up an instructor. Why can the commander be on an equal footing with the company commander? Because the officers in the army are the backbone of the business, almost one-third or a quarter of the people are officers, which is the basic base of the instructors.
If the commander is just one person, the company commander can easily ignore him, but with all the key business members as the basic instructors, the company commander is also difficult to control.
According to Cheng Shijie's idea, at the division level, the captain of the military law team will be the chief supervisor, and the basic team of the chief supervisor is a twelve-person military law team.
To reach the general commander, a director needs to be established. The director's immediate subordinates are three supervisors from three departments, plus thirty-three members of the Military Law Corps, and fifty people directly under the director's supervision. There are a total of eighty-three personnel in the ACFTU responsible for supervision and military law enforcement, including three supervisors at the level of the General Secretary and one director at the same level as the General Secretary.
At the level of the capital commander, it is necessary to establish a capital supervisor. The supervisor is at the same level as the capital commander. His direct subordinates include five directors and 15 department supervisors, 165 military judges, and 250 supervisors. Ten people, a total of 435 people.
The reason why the military supervision system in the past dynasties ultimately failed is because this system is fundamentally a political system that does not belong to the military system itself. The purpose of this system itself is to monitor and check and balance the military. No one wants to be monitored. Being checked and balanced, this system has gone astray since its establishment. It has appeared as the opposite of the military. Therefore, it is inevitable that this system will be destroyed by military generals in every possible way.
As for the political commissar system itself, they belong to the military, and they must fight on the front line during battles, so that they will not be targeted by the military. To a certain extent, this system is superior and cannot be surpassed.
In Cheng Shijie's time and space, this system had always been very advanced. The promotion or transfer of any officer requires democratic review by instructors and officers, which itself is supervision. The soldiers responsible for supervising military law know these officers who are to be promoted best.
…
Just as Cheng Shijie was on his way to Dengzhou City, the young emperor Chongzhen, who was far away in the Forbidden City Palace in Beijing, had been unable to sleep for several days.
With the Battle of Daling River, the Ming Dynasty was completely defeated. This battle started on August 6 and ended on November 9, when Zu Dashou surrendered for the first time.
For more than three months, Emperor Chongzhen was roasted on the fire by the ministers.
Emperor Chongzhen was not a prince who was raised as an emperor, so his understanding of political struggles was far from adequate. Although he was very diligent, the problem was that diligence could not solve the essential problem. Secondly, he did not really belong to His team.
As a result, Emperor Chongzhen was fooled around by the civil servants. Sun Yuanhua, who was far away in Dengzhou, received the news and learned that Song Wei, the commander-in-chief of the Guanning Army, and Wu Xiang, the commander-in-chief, led 6,000 Guanning troops to support Daling River City. After hearing the news that Jian Nu had been defeated and his entire army was annihilated, Sun Yuanhua immediately judged that someone was digging a hole.
Xiang Zhuang dances with his sword, aiming at Pei Gong.
The ability to see through the layers of fog and see the essence of the problem was not something the little emperor could do. He just felt his face hurt.
Being deceived again and again, he was very angry with Sun Chengzong at this time.
But the problem is that Emperor Chongzhen really hated the wrong person.
In fact, Sun Chengzong was also a victim.
However, Emperor Chongzhen angrily agreed to Sun Chengzong's resignation directly, without even going through the process of three resignations, and directly drove Mr. Sun out of the capital.
Of course, many people celebrated.
Until Sun Chengzong left the capital, Emperor Chongzhen didn't know that he went to the grave of the wrong person to cry.
ps: I finally wrote 6,000 words, so I’m very sorry. Lao Cheng didn't understand much about the political commissar system. I was so busy today that I got the chapter sequence wrong. Lao Cheng doesn't have the authority to change it. I'll ask the editor to change it tomorrow. Chapter 85 will be coded immediately.
