Vol 3 Chapter 187: Party leader and head

Volume Three Huaxia Longteng Chapter 187 Party Leaders and Heads of State
In April 1933, when the Kuomintang, which had ruled China for more than 20 years, finally withdrew from the arena of history, a new unified government was born.
(Reading Network)
The Southwest United Autonomous Government issued a political order in the name of the United Government for the last time, announcing the preparation of the establishment of the New China People's Government, which will complete two important tasks in two months. First, the original local armed forces of the Kuomintang will complete the final Collection work. Second, form a new government.
At the same time, Zhang Shusheng, chairman of the Southwest Supreme Military Commission, announced the expansion of the Southwest People's Army into the Chinese People's Army. This new army is mainly composed of approximately 80 divisional divisions, except for the more than 40 divisions of the Southwest People's Army that were directly under the Southwest. The rest are former Kuomintang troops temporarily listed. Although there are many original divisions in this batch, some enlightened generals who have been carefully selected are temporarily employed, such as the anti-Japanese patriotic generals Zhang Xueliang, Song Zheyuan, Han Fuqu, Chen Cheng, Fu Zuoyi, Wang Mingzhang, Zhang Zizhong, Liu Jiaqi and other former senior generals. There are also former KMT enlightened generals such as Zhang Zhizhong, Xu Yongchang, Xue Yue, Tong Linge, Yang Hucheng, Cai Tingguang (formerly the 19th Division Chief of the Tianjin-Beijing Battlefield Anti-Japanese Division, and a renamed historical celebrity), Zhao Dengyu, and Hu Zongnan.
These generals all have one thing in common. They have excellent resumes and rich commanding experience in combat, but they lack education in the most advanced military cultural knowledge.
When appointing a temporary division commander, the Southwest Military Department also fully considered whether a person can serve as a temporary division commander and become a reserve officer of the Chinese People's Army in the future after the initial reorganization of the new government has been completed. There are multiple inspection standards.
First of all, is this person inferior? This is the most important consideration. If the most sinful Republic of China generals are mixed into the new army, even if they are temporarily led by the army, and they are still under heavy surveillance by the former Southwest Army, the new government will encounter crisis.
Secondly, is this person sufficiently talented to be able to serve as interim division commander and later be able to become a reserve officer. The investigation of talents is also very detailed.
Finally, did this person ever strongly oppose the former Southwest United Government, if there is one, then I'm sorry, you can only get rid of the armor and return to the field. The new government should definitely not have such a stubborn ambition.
"Chairman, our reorganization plan is roughly like this. According to the previous expansion plan, a considerable part of the original army was demobilized first, a severance payment was given, and the reserve was temporarily provisioned. Then the remaining divisions were cross-organized. This It is the first part of the reorganization of the entire New People's Army.
Later, we will mix the new editors of the former Southwest with these editors to completely eliminate any potential dangers. Of course, the official side of the military is still to select some outstanding officers of the original main force, this time the scope has been expanded to more than 20 elite divisions, as long as officers at all levels through military inspections can go to the new army.
In order to eliminate the doubts of a very small number of former generals, we will retain a small number of outstanding officers, such as Zhang Zizhong, Chen Cheng and others, who will serve as the division commanders and commanders of the People's Army. However, before taking up the new military post, they must join other generals to enter the Huaxia Military Academy for a one- to three-year modern military education. If they pass the exam, the military will eventually appoint them at their discretion. If they fail, they will be transferred to Second line. "
Zhang Shusheng closed the file, and with his speed of browsing, he had already looked at this ten-page plan. There are too many things in the transition period. Although Sun Changqing is the leader and the new government preparatory committee has been formed with Wei Sancai, Zhou Guolai, and others, there are so many things that people can't afford to breathe.
Although the preparatory work for the formation of the government began in January, when the battle was progressing smoothly, various tasks are still in full swing.
The number of things is far beyond Zhang Shusheng's imagination. Since he is not good at government affairs, he does more to listen to reports and sign, and listens to the reports of passers-by in the same way every day.
Although Sun Changqing, as the Prime Minister of the State Council, can also make decisions to decide some things, he obviously regards many things as important things, and let Zhang Shusheng make the overall decision.
Although the new government preparatory committee can solve many problems, there are still many problems.
Fortunately, instead of immediately appointing or appointing officials at all levels, only temporary military control is needed, which has given a certain buffer period to the southwest.
As early as January, political workers in the southwest began to systematically appoint, remove and appoint senior officials in various places below the provincial governor in accordance with a well-prepared plan. Due to the 15 years of large-scale free higher education in the southwest, the education level of the people has greatly improved, and the number of corresponding political workers is also very large. After spreading the booth to the six provinces in the southwest, many very talented people still live in towns, Even officials at the city and county levels, and the provincial and ministerial levels also have a large number of young officials from the Southwest education system in the new era.
The rejuvenation of officials is a major feature of the Southwest. In order to avoid some well-known problems, Zhang Shusheng was not prepared to directly retain officials of the Kuomintang system.
The first round of tests set up for them was the public opinion test. If the public opinion test fails, it will be wiped out directly. Second, there are illegal acts such as adultery, bullying, smuggling and drug trafficking, etc., and they will be fired directly. No second round of assessment opportunities will be granted.
After screening through the big net, compared with the former military officers who can enter the military academies at all levels for further studies and waiting for assessment, these preliminary qualified former Kuomintang government officials will also enter the school and receive re-education. After passing the assessment, they will assume new positions. , But Guan went home and hugged the child.
This is also the result of Zhang Shusheng's deliberate thinking, which will not allow those maggots to penetrate into the people, and will not waste talent. After all, although there is no shortage of political workers in the Southwest, the Southwest currently firmly controls the size of the political talent pool in the six provinces of Bashu, Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou, Guangdong, and Hainan, and can even build a nationwide framework for governance. Then proceed with appropriate open social recruitment.
But his final decision gave these people a last chance. Through investigation, it was found that the overturning of a boat by one pole was indeed wrong. The government of the Kuomintang at all levels did have some officials who were honest and honest, but most of them were depressed. In addition, doing so is just giving these people a chance to take a ‘enter the official’ exam. If they fail, they also have no chance. In a sense, these veteran officials who do not have issues such as adultery divisions, when competing for some grass-roots positions, do not have much more opportunities than an ordinary high school or college or university graduate student.
Moreover, the high-frequency assessment system will be quickly eliminated as soon as unqualified persons are found, which is why Zhang Shusheng spent much of his early years building a clean government inspection system.
In fact, from the experience of future generations, Zhang Shusheng can establish a large-scale political party from the beginning, so that he can train "tens of millions of so-called loyal fighters". However, such disadvantages are also clearly visible, and once opened, Head, don't even think about good results later.
Imagine that if a regime is a one-party dictatorship from head to toe, even if the legal system is sound, there will be biases. Appropriate control and decentralization are the long-lasting ways of peace and order.
In this way, politically, the new government will implement the strictest and fairest social recruitment for the lowest-level officials, and implement a tenure and election system after controlling the middle and high-level political layers. After re-establishing the party, the party organization will be mainly concentrated at the middle and high levels, and the stratum serving the people will be mainly selected by the people themselves. This is not only convenient for the central control of party organizations, but also for local democracy.
In the military, reorganization is imperative. Arrangements for officers and separate repatriation of soldiers will be carried out simultaneously during this transition period.
"Well, the Ministry of Military Affairs must pay attention to controlling risks, guard against instability in some places, and cannot relax the surveillance of the old Ministry. I heard that many troops in Hunan have penetrated into the mountains to be bandits, and the matter of bandits must be seized." Zhang Shusheng also did not want to Entangled in this reorganization plan, countless high IQ staff members discussed countless plans, as long as they grasped the general direction.
"Rest assured, the military and general staff are cooperating very well, and the emergency response plan is well implemented, and the special situation department will also assist us. The bandit plan is also in progress, and it is expected to be thorough within six months Clean up the bandits in the inland provinces. "
"Well, just like that, you go down first." Zhang Shusheng looked at the time will be night, and has come to the next discussion.
After Wu Tiejun went out, Zhou Guolai of the State Council came in. At this time, Zhou Guolai, who was already the Deputy Secretary-General of the State Council, was regarded as the absolute main official of the State Council. The whole new government preparatory committee, he and Wei Sancai were like two carriages. The two busiest men in politics and the army. According to a report from the head of the Central Security Department of the Southwest Government, Zhou Guolai and Wei Sancai worked a lot of overtime all night, and they both insisted on their tough bodies.
"Chairman, the central meeting in fifteen minutes will discuss major issues such as the party establishment, the capital, the national flag, and the national anthem. This is a preliminary plan."
Zhou Guolai handed the prepared discussion plan to Zhang Shusheng.
Zhang Shusheng rubbed his head. There was no trivial matter in the state. During the period of the Southwest Government, he might wave his hand and let the people below do it, but now he really can't let go.
The political system to be adopted by the new government has long been determined in Zhang Shusheng's mind, and he will adopt a one-party, one-party dictatorship in the form of night. But he didn't say anything clearly, but he still wanted to see the reaction below. Although there is great certainty, there will be many people who put forward opinions that share his own heart, but he still wants to see how the situation is.
Take a brief look at this discussion plan, a few minutes will pass the night, then Zhou Guo looked at the watch, and whispered that the time was coming, the two talented secretary-general Mao Yunxian and the director of the central office Accompanied by Lu Yunyan, he went to the temporary venue nearby.
The entire venue was simple and not extravagant. After all, as a temporary venue, there was no need to waste too much. In the huge conference hall, the political and military politicians at all levels in the southwest were filled with pressure.
"stand up"
In the Southwest, there were not many such conferences. Zhang Shusheng was very impressed by the daily meetings in the previous life. During the Dongchuan period, he emphasized the pragmatic aspects of government work efficiency and style. many.
However, after seeing the hundreds of military and political figures in the meeting hall, Zhang Shusheng pressed the button in an empty press, motioned to sit down, and Wei Sancai, who chaired the meeting, announced that he would sit down.
The entire podium is in the same style as Southwest, with only three seats on it. At the highest point is Zhang Shusheng's podium. Behind him is the chair of Secretary-General Mao Yunxian and the director of the office, Lu Yunyan. The shorter one is the main podium, and the deputy podium is not far away, for the host of the conference.
Everyone else, whether it was Secretary of the Army Wu Tiejun or Sun Changqing of the State Council, all sat underneath. This is a rule that has been established since the beginning of the Southwest.
In the meeting attended by Zhang Shusheng, the conference set up a podium. For meetings without Zhang Shusheng, only a speaking platform and a presiding platform were set up. The concept of superiority has not existed since the beginning of the Southwest. The so-called 'leadership' cannot be mentioned. Everyone sits flat, at least in the seat, no longer one side is high on the mountain, and the other side looks up like a people of faith.
However, because Zhang Shusheng's position is not too high, it will not appear obtrusive. The layout of the venue like this is similar to the staircase classroom in Zhang Shusheng's memory. Some large conferences that he does not attend will adopt a circular conference venue layout, so that a group of people will not hold a conference, facing the direction without a podium.
"Comrades, in the more than five months of military operations, Southwest achieved the ultimate victory ..." Wei Sancai delivered the opening speech as the chairman of the conference, briefly described the current situation in China, and then invited Zhang Shusheng to speak.
Zhang Shusheng coughed twice and said slightly to the microphone, "Comrades, I have thousands of words, but I condensed in one sentence. You once bowed out, and in the future, I also ask you to be big, big, and big. Great for the people. Whether it was in the sacred place Xiaoqingshan, Dongchuan, and later the southwest, we continued to make progress and win continuously because we always put people first and economic construction as the foundation. Based on the development of science and technology to improve productivity. Take the self-improvement and self-improvement route and insist on punishing domestic thieves internally and rejecting strong enemies. The ruling area has become larger, but our political policy will not change, and political titles will change, but our political determination is not Will change.
The new government is about to be set up. Many people will go to new jobs. The power is greater and the scope of management is wider. However, I want to give everyone a wake-up call. No matter what happens in the future, as long as Zhang Shusheng hasn't stepped down for a day, this Chinese land will not turn the sky.
No matter who it is, it can't. "
"Papapapap ..."
Zhang Shusheng's voice, warm applause sounded densely. From the later period of the Southwest United Government, his personal worship has risen to the peak. This kind of personal worship is irresistible, and no force can change it. Even if Zhang Shusheng himself spoke, it would be difficult to stop this personal worship of him.
Not because of anything else, but because of the great victory that the Southwest has achieved internally and externally, and because of a series of major achievements made by the Southwest in military, science, technology, economics, education, and culture.
These things have made his reputation, from the civilian to the military and political high-levels, absolutely climbed to the peak.
Of course, he also knew that there were other things in this applause. Some people may simply worship and believe in themselves, while others see the upcoming higher political status, while others see the opportunity to make a name for themselves and jump onto the Chinese political stage.
This is inevitable. Some people will be beaten down when they come out, and some people will always come forward. This is a problem of standing team. Southwest has won. Those who follow the start will also harvest a small part of the fruits of victory.
Relative to Zhang Shusheng's strength, compared to the harsh punishment laws enacted by the Southwest from the beginning, these people may go all the way incorruptly, but they will also continue to sprint on the pinnacle of power.
As long as this promotion of the officialdom does not evolve into the faction of private parties and official earthquakes, he is happy to see it, and can not stifle a person's originality, he should appropriately watch.
"I think our new government should adopt a Western-style head of state system that not only avoids the public opinion shock caused by the imperial system, but also concentrates power on the head of the country ..."
"I recommend a monarchy ..."
...
Sure enough, the enthusiasm for discussion at the conference was very high. After Zhang Shusheng made a statement and signaled that everyone could discuss freely, the first question entered into a fierce debate. To Zhang Shusheng's surprise, quite a few people actually demanded the adoption of an extensive monarchy. Although it is not a monarchy in the direct sense, nor is it a pure western constitutional monarchy, the fundamental purpose of this kind of extensive monarchy is definitely an extremely important step towards monarchy.
Of course, some people think that the current timing is not appropriate. If the monarchy is adopted, it will have a certain negative impact on the government's image. It is better to adopt a temporary head of state system and wait for the time to mature before changing it.
Although there are still some messy proposals, they mainly focus on these two big discussions.
A very large faction of the military, including Zhuge Sheng and others, insisted on the monarchy, Wu Tiejun remained silent, and the government faction basically agreed with the head of state system.
The results of the conference discussions will not be announced on the spot, but will be announced later by the Government Council.
Subsequently, discussions were held on issues such as party building.
This problem of party building was raised by Zhang Shusheng, because a political party does help to gather strength, and a pure government and pure faith maintenance will have an adverse effect for a long time after the founding of the country.
The issue of party building was discussed smoothly. Thanks to Zhang Shusheng's advice, the Secretary-General of the State Council, Zhou Guolai, has already announced a general party formation plan.
First, the party will be named the Ba'ath Party, with Zhang Shusheng as the party leader. The party building preparatory committee will be led by Sun Changqing, the Prime Minister of the State Council, and Mao Yunxian, the secretary general of the Central Office.
The Ba'ath Party Central Committee will set up a six-member group from below Zhang Shusheng, namely, Sun Changqing, Prime Minister of the State Council, Wei Sancai, Deputy Prime Minister, Cai Yong, who will be the new government ’s defense minister, Jiang Baili, deputy commander-in-chief and chief of staff of the armed forces, Wu Tiejun, army minister, Zhang Xueliang, deputy commander of the three armed forces, will enter the Party Central Committee as the only 'outsider'.
On the basis of the party leader and the six-member group, screening will be carried out at the lower levels. Among the middle and higher level personnel in the military and political fields, the group of elderly people in the Dongchuan period will be given the highest priority in the party membership list, and the southwestern elderly will be given priority in the second batch of party member candidates. The list, the remaining third batch, the fourth batch of party inspection objects, will be appropriately based on qualifications and job status to conduct an inspection, the committee submitted a list of assessments, a six-member committee review, Zhang Shusheng finally confirmed as the final result,
This also determines that the Baath Party will not have too many party members, and Zhang Shusheng insists on including in the party platform restrictions on several hard rules such as party membership inspections. The requirements for party membership will be very high.
"Below, the conference enters the fourth discussion session, and the participants discuss issues such as the capital, national flag, and national anthem."
Wei Sancai announced that the conference has entered a later stage. In fact, the military and political figures present at the conference are more concerned about party building and the political system. Even a stable old man from the southwest, such as Wu Tiejun, has actively expressed his opinions. Compared to the previous discussions on the bill, these issues are harmless and everyone is willing to participate.
The General Assembly had a very free discussion on these issues in the capital, expressing their opinions, and some conference representatives even fought in the face of the discipline allowed by the conference.
"I think Kunming is good, and Chengdu and Chongqing are also good."
"Lao Luo, although Kunming and Chengyu are good, they are too southwestern, which is not good for the new government to control the situation in the country."
"Since it is the capital, then you must choose Peiping, a thousand-year-old capital ..."
"The location of Beiping is too north, which is not good for controlling the south, northwest, and southwest. I think we should choose Wuhan."
"Wuhan is definitely not good. Wuhan has not been a capital city since ancient times. It does n’t matter whether it is Feng Shui or geographical location. I do n’t think it ’s good. The problem with the capital is that I still want to choose a city near the sea, but not too close to the north and south. I I think Nanjing is very suitable. "
"Nanjing definitely can't."
"Why can't Nanjing? The Six Dynasties, but the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, see if Chiang Kai-shek also chose there."
"In the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, have you ever heard of the long luck? What did Chiang Kai-shek end in the end? Since the ancient Jinling, the rouge is heavy and the luck is insufficient."
"You're wrong. The new government advocates scientific civilization. You said how old Liu Liu is to take things by storm."
"The national affairs are not trivial. Naturally, we must be cautious. Feng Shui has been around for a long time, and the short life in the Six Dynasties is also a fact. Anyway, in my personal opinion, Nanjing is definitely not."
...
Zhang Shusheng didn't express his opinion, so just listen. He has heard the disputes of so-called historians about this determinant capital from later generations, and it is exactly what these representatives of the conference said ~ EbookFREE.me ~ he Have heard similar arguments in later generations.
"Caution, what do you think is good?"
Lu Yunyan sat down and handed Zhang Shusheng a document. He thought it was an important thing. As a result, Lu Yunyan also cared about where the capital was. Before at home, she and He Ning couldn't wait to ask him what he meant, but unfortunately Zhang Shusheng kept his mouth shut, saying that it would not be announced at the last moment, not to mention it.
As a result, Lu Yunyan didn't hold back.
Zhang Shusheng did not answer directly, and wrote a few words briefly, "Wife, you guess, I guess there is a prize."
Looking at the words on the notepad, Lu Yunyan rolled his eyes secretly, and he really began to choose. After preparing to go back, he encouraged He Ning to also choose and see who would choose.
Tomorrow at noon tomorrow, to be his wife's family, it is considered a marriage proposal, although both sleeves are empty, but also have to bite the bullet. The update of the 5th may be put in the afternoon, this chapter still stayed up until 4 o'clock to write.
