In the future, Earth is no longer habitable due to thermonuclear war, world-ending earthquakes, tectonic plate shifts, species extinction, and psionic awakenings...
Qin Che, an ordinary perso...
All the high-ranking officials present were intelligent people, and after listening to what Qin Che had just said, they understood most of it.
Even Li Mi understood, and said to Cai Dong, "Having a military supervisor is only a temporary solution. Haven't you understood what I mean? The separation of military and political affairs is to transform a dictatorial officer into an officer of our collective, understand?"
Cai Dong was somewhat bewildered.
Qin Che clenched his fists and said, "Divide the troops into military and political officers, and let them work together. The former will be responsible for troop training and combat missions, while the latter will be responsible for daily work and internal affairs. Let me put it more clearly: after the military reform, you will only be responsible for fighting, while your partner will be responsible for living and internal affairs."
Cai Dong suddenly realized: "Master, I understand!"
"Mm." Qin Che nodded with a smile.
Lu Guimeng said, "Master Qin, if we need to recruit agents, you might as well give us some pointers on how to do the specific work so that the people below can understand it."
It has to be said, Old Man Lu's words are just pleasing to the ear.
Qin Che smiled and said, "For example, personnel transfers and appointments must be signed by the head of internal affairs. This is to prevent the military from appointing relatives and friends."
Cai Dong wiped away his sweat...
Qin Che added, "Secondly, the discipline and ideological work of the troops are also the responsibility of the internal affairs department."
"I will be in charge of this agency for the time being. Once the military reforms are fully implemented, I will delegate more authority to lower levels..."
As he spoke, Qin Che looked at Cai Dong and said, "So General Cai, there's no need to be nervous. All these powers will be yours in the future."
Cai Dong nodded and smiled slightly.
In Qin Che's vision, all troops under his control must have a collective leadership organization, but this organization may not necessarily be him.
He can be a part of it, but he must never be a dictator.
The military is different from politics. In politics, he is a dictator in order to consolidate power and do great things. It doesn't matter if he makes the wrong choice. Just look at the officials left by Yuan Lin, which can tell you a lot. But if he is a dictator in the military, if he makes the wrong choice, it will be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and countless living people will die.
Although they are all consumables, in the heat of battle, being more cautious is certainly better...
Therefore, in the envisioned collective body, it must be composed of multiple military and internal affairs officers. All major issues must first be discussed and decided upon by this body before being approved. After the orders are issued, the military officers are responsible for implementing the combat work, while the internal affairs officers are responsible for implementing the political work.
This is what is known as the division of labor and responsibility system.
All branches and departments within the military, with their respective responsibilities, must be deeply rooted at the grassroots level, including battalions, companies, teams, and groups.
Qin Che still believes that only a great person could come up with such a great system.
Of course, no system is perfect. This system is no exception. Just like a coin has two sides, because it is based on collective leadership and division of responsibilities, it will inevitably have flaws in decision-making efficiency. War is unpredictable and sometimes the outcome can be decided in a minute or two. If the decision-making is left to a group of people to discuss, and they cannot reach a decision, the opportunity will be lost forever.
And sometimes the truth is not in the hands of the majority.
Therefore, in order to improve this system, in case of emergency or special circumstances, the decision will be made on the spot by the number one commander, but afterwards, a detailed report must be made and the decision must be reviewed by the authorities.
"Remember, the most important thing in military reform is the soldiers' mindset. The military reform we are discussing can only be considered the body of the army at most. But what kind of ideology is instilled into this body is what determines the nature and soul of this army. I call it the 'military soul'."
"Only in this way can this army be completely distinguished from all other old-style armies. Lu Guimeng, the personnel you recruit need to be vetted and undergo a period of training. They must understand deeply what this army is fighting for, and this must be implemented at every level!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was filled with respect and took notes.
Lina remained silent throughout, but after listening to these military reform topics, she suddenly realized that Qin Che's way of doing things was indeed much more sophisticated than anyone else's.
She couldn't think of any flaws or shortcomings in such a system.
It can be judged that he had been conceiving this idea in his mind for a very long time, and he probably already had a general plan before the Sandcastle military reform.
This person not only possesses superhuman physical strength bordering on savagery, but also an exceptionally intelligent mind that many of the incompetent officials within that wall cannot even imagine…
