After Su Yonglin put forward his opinion, the whole place was in an uproar.
The public representatives were very surprised and shocked by this. They felt that it was really strange that Su Yonglin and Xin Qiji had opposite opinions.
In their previous understanding, Su Yonglin and Xin Qiji were very close comrades-in-arms and had a very good relationship. In many previous discussions, Su Yonglin and Xin Qiji had kept in step. If Su Yonglin supported it, Xin Qiji would definitely support it.
But why do they have different opinions now?
What's more, most public representatives feel that there is nothing wrong with this proposal.
Many people have fully understood the policy adjustments of the previous Shandong Incident and have drawn their own conclusions. They feel that Xin Qiji's proposal is very meaningful.
After all, they all care about Su Yonglin very much. Anyone who wants to murder Su Yonglin is their enemy. This is for sure. This policy seems to be to ensure Su Yonglin's safety. Is there anything wrong with this?
However, now Su Yonglin has taken the initiative to stand up against this proposal made for him.
This puzzled the public representatives and kept talking among themselves in private.
Of course, Su Yonglin didn't hide it, but explained his reasons.
“The reason why I oppose this proposal is not for myself. I admit that Deputy Director Xin’s original intention of proposing this proposal is for national stability, but in my opinion, this stability cannot be the overriding reason.
The reason why I chose to leave some autonomous power to the local militia is that I hope that they can become part of the error correction mechanism in a sense. When big mistakes are made, their existence can be a factor that the wrongdoers have to take into account. part.
I have been emphasizing that no one is immune from making mistakes. Local governments will make mistakes, and the Central Government will also make mistakes. However, the cost of mistakes made by Central Government will be much higher than the cost of mistakes by local governments. There is no doubt about this. If you make a mistake somewhere, you can correct it in the middle, but what should you do if you make a mistake in the middle? "
Su Yonglin's speech aroused extensive discussion among the delegates. Su Yonglin gave them some time to discuss before continuing.
"No one is a sage, and no one can make mistakes. This is true for a person, and it is also true for a group. Some groups are good at correcting mistakes and have a complete error correction mechanism, so the group can be strong for a long time. However, some groups are not good at correcting mistakes, but instead If you are good at making mistakes, then such a group cannot last long.
I hope to leave some error correction mechanisms to the Ming Dynasty, so that when the court makes mistakes, someone can stop it, and after making mistakes, someone can work hard to correct the mistakes and correct them. This requires a certain amount of strength, and the militia system has this strength. "
Su Yonglin finished the first stage of his speech and stepped back, indicating that Xin Qiji had something to say and could continue.
Xin Qiji hesitated for a while, nodded, and walked onto the podium.
"I must say that I do not object to what the chairman said. A correction mechanism is needed, but I think we can discuss other correction mechanisms instead of involving the country's military power.
I believe that the military and politics should be separated. The military cannot get involved in government affairs. Whether it is the regular army or the militia, it should not be involved in government affairs. This is very dangerous. "
Xin Qiji finished speaking and looked at Su Yonglin again.
Su Yonglin nodded and continued on stage.
“Under our setup, if the error correction mechanism of the local militia is activated and has to be used, it means that the political level correction is no longer able and errors have taken over the mainstream.
In this case, conventional means are no longer available, so in order to protect the results of our hard work, the military is the last line of defense. I think that at that time, political correctness is meaningless. "
Xin Qiji hesitated for a while, but then he went up.
"For this possible mistake that has no trace at all, the cost of asking Ming Dynasty to bear the risk of mutinies that may occur one after another is too high. I cannot agree with the chairman's suggestion, and I still maintain my own opinion. "
Of course Su Yonglin would not agree, so he spoke again.
“In order to prevent the risk of mutiny, we can take more policy measures and we can discuss them, but I don’t think the two are in conflict with the strategy of preventing mutiny by retaining the final flexibility at the local level. This strategy We can take the matter to the Ministry of Military Affairs to discuss it, but in principle we cannot discuss it."
Xin Qiji took a deep breath and felt that he had less and less words to say.
"So, Chairman, what strategies do you have to prevent the Shandong Incident from happening again?"
Su Yonglin smiled slightly.
"This is a strategic matter, a matter of specific measures under major political principles. It does not need to be discussed in this kind of situation. What we need to ask the representatives to vote on now is whether we can ensure that the local area maintains a certain degree of military flexibility. matter."
Xin Qiji was stunned and realized that he had made a mistake.
But he had no chance to modify it.
Su Yonglin delivered the last speech on the stage immediately afterwards.
"What has happened over the years has made me understand the fact that people will change, and even the warriors who once fought alongside me will one day fall to a level that I simply cannot believe.
Therefore, I firmly cannot support any behavior that pins all hopes on one place. Everything has to pay a price, but if after paying the price, we can gain valuable success in correcting mistakes in the future, then I think, The price is worth it.
Representatives, the reason why you can become representatives is because of the Ming Dynasty's revolution. It is not easy for you to be the master of the court. I hope you will cherish everything that is hard-won now.
At the same time, you must understand that only the people and yourself are your most solid support. Relying on heaven, earth, and heroes is not as good as relying on yourself. "
Su Yonglin actually wanted to say more, but considering the central representatives behind him, he felt there was no need to speak so simply now.
So he finished speaking.
The public representatives were speechless for a moment.
But at some point, from the moment the first person clapped and cheered, deafening applause and cheers erupted throughout the entire People's Congress chamber.
This is the cheer and recognition that belongs to Su Yonglin alone. It is the cheer and recognition given to Su Yonglin by the public representatives on behalf of the people of the whole country. It is something that no one can have except him.
When the members of the decision-making team behind Su Yonglin and the Central Committee representatives faced such a scene, the emotions that emerged in their hearts were very complicated.
Some people are relieved.
Someone sighed.
Some people are envious.
Some people feel panic and uneasiness.
Some people feel so stressed that they can't breathe.
Some people are confused about the future.
Their emotions are very complicated, but this does not prevent the public representatives from voting to express their support for Su Yonglin.
They once again realized Su Yonglin's overwhelming prestige and popularity, and realized that as long as Su Yonglin was alive for one day, it would make no difference no matter what kind of good system the country had, or whether he was still the leader of the country.
No one can compete with him at this level, unless he lives in seclusion in the mountains and does nothing and says nothing. As long as he appears in the crowd, this situation cannot be broken.
This proposal was rejected by all public representatives.
On this issue, Xin Qiji was completely defeated.
