Three hundred and fifty-nine Wanyanliang is really our great benefactor
In Su Yonglin's plan, he hopes to use the achievements of governing the river as the foundation of the Revival Society.
The successful management of rivers is not only a matter of Buddhahood, but also a great achievement, which is enough to be recorded in history and is known as a name.
The evil done by the rulers of the Zhao Song Dynasty, Su Yonglin and the Revival will help them wipe their butts clean, which is an absolutely good thing for the people in the entire Central Plains.
If this achievement is used as the foundation of the Revival Society, will the Revival be easily defeated and ruined?
When the Revival Association is on the right track, Su Yonglin will continue to strengthen the power of the Revival Association. Taking advantage of the fact that the country has not been unified and the regulations have not yet been clarified, more and more members of the Revival Association will be promoted to serve important officials and compete with Confucius and Mencius disciples.
Anyway, the disciples of Confucius and Mencius have not yet intended to surrender to Su Yonglin, and they are still watching the situation. Since this is the case, Su Yonglin will not beg them to become high-ranking officials with a shame.
But don’t think that everyone is Zhuge Liang, and Su Yonglin is Liu Bei, so you don’t even see if you have one percent of Zhuge Liang’s ability.
As time goes by, the number of members of the Fuxing Society will continue to increase, and the power of control will continue to increase. In addition, Su Yonglin will be in a slight position. In the end, the Fuxing Society will be different from another court outside the current court.
Confucian disciples wanted to bargain with Su Yonglin to gain power, and they also had their scarcity and irreplaceability. If this scarcity and irreplaceability disappeared, they would have no capital to bargain.
By that time, the mode of learning Confucianism, participating in the imperial examination, and entering the court will be slowly replaced by the Revival Society and its affiliated mode.
If you want to truly participate in national politics, you must join the Revival Society.
If you want to join the Revival Society, you must pass the Revival Society exam, and after the Revival Society test, you will gain the trust of the Revival Society.
Of course, the examination of the Revival Society is not based on Confucian classics.
In Su Yonglin's plan, the Revival Society exam will include all the humanities and natural sciences that can be mastered so far, eliminate boring Confucianism and boring moral disputes, and use practice as the benchmark.
Replace the imperial examinations filled with Confucian classics with a brand new examination model, change the talent selection method, and modify the content that intellectuals need to learn.
When it really comes to that point, it is almost time to end the deformed world constructed with Confucian power.
This is Su Yonglin's fundamental purpose.
Pull out all the roots of this deformed world.
Confucianism is better as a theory. Once it is regarded as a ruling power, even its original value will no longer exist.
"Revival will be a good name. A river management institution that looks harmless, but can be allowed to do it inside. We can not only cultivate talents ourselves, but also absorb real smart people into it. There is one You'an, and there is also a second and a third You'an.
I believe that not everyone devotes himself to this Confucian power strategy, nor does every scholar turn a blind eye to the sufferings of the people. They just have no organization and no power to resist, so they dare not.
If an organization provides them with channels for communication, provides them with certain security protection, so that they can get together and gather everyone's strength to resist together, then their courage will be stimulated."
Su Yonglin described the grand future of the Revival Society, described how to absorb new members into the Revival Society, how to build the organizational structure of the Revival Society, etc., which made Xin Qiji and Tian Guizi fascinated.
As he was talking, Xin Qiji suddenly asked a question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.
He didn't rush to ask, but the matter of Su Yonglin's establishment of the Revival Society suddenly increased his questions, and he needed to get a suitable answer.
"Supervisor Su, we promote the oppression of the people by the superiors in the peasant associations we control. Do the landlords and gentry, and bureaucrats, know that we are doing this? How do they view this matter?"
Tian Guizi was stunned, and then looked at Su Yonglin curiously.
Su Yonglin was a little surprised and a little surprised.
Xin Qiji obviously thought more and thought more deeply. At this stage, he had begun to consider the contradiction between Su Yonglin's regime and the superiors.
This is very good.
If his regime wants to go further and more steadily, it requires many people who are good at thinking to think about many different paths and possibilities for the regime. Without a leader who is good at thinking, it is difficult for the regime to continue.
So Su Yonglin decided to tell Xin Qiji the tricks here.
"If you don't know, I don't believe it. We are not paradise, nor are we completely closed. The public trial is very popular. Although they may not know everything and do not understand my theory, they must also know some."
Xin Qiji suddenly became worried.
"Then...if they knew that we were always hostile, wouldn't they have any ideas about us? I thought this would inevitably create a gap between us and them."
"You'an, why didn't I launch an uprising in the Southern Song Dynasty? Why did I have to launch an uprising in the Jin Dynasty? Isn't it just to avoid this conflict when we are still weak?"
Su Yonglin shook his head and sighed: "If the rebellion in Song State, we will directly bump into these landlords and gentry. We have no other common enemy to deal with, and we cannot cooperate with each other, and we can only be completely hostile and conflict.
Just those hundreds of us, fighting against the landlords and gentry of the entire Southern Song Dynasty? Isn’t that seeking death? But it’s different in the Jin Dynasty. We have a common enemy and can work together to deal with the Jin Dynasty. To put it bluntly, we can use each other.
Contradictions always exist, but contradictions can be big or small, urgent or slow, and are not completely consistent. Therefore, when facing contradictions, there is a sequence of responses. If you want to resolve all contradictions in one go, you will often not be able to resolve any contradictions."
Seeing that the two of them were a little unobstructed, Su Yonglin made another example.
"For example, you are a villager, and you have some unhappiness with your neighbors and have a barrier between you, but you have a deep hatred with the next village, and the people from the next village are already coming to chop you with a knife. You said, are you choosing to quarrel with your neighbor first, or find a way to deal with the enemy in the next village first?"
"Of course it's more important to save your life first."
Tian Guizi answered this question before Xin Qiji answered it.
Su Yonglin nodded.
"This is what I am talking about the main contradiction and the secondary contradiction. Although they are all contradictions that need to be resolved, it is necessary to distinguish which one is the main contradiction and which one is the secondary contradiction. Although there are idiots in this world who will make enemies from all sides, there are also smart people who will join forces.
For us, for the landlords and gentry who rebelled with us in Hebei and Shandong, the main contradiction is the life-and-death contradiction between us and the Jin Kingdom, and secondly, the secondary contradiction between me and them regarding political power.
The premise of fighting for political power is to live and save your life. If you don’t have any life, everything is nothing, meaningless, and no value for talking about.
Wanyan Liang is a knife that is placed on our necks. As long as he doesn’t put the knife down, or he just dies and the knife disappears completely, then there is nothing we can’t talk about.”
"I see."
Xin Qiji nodded: "In this way, Wanyan Liang is really our great benefactor."
"It's true."
Tian Guizi smiled and said, "For so long, I have never heard of anyone who he invites or promises to be appointed as an official. There is no news at all. It just looks like a faction is going to fight us to the death. This has really helped us a lot."
"He helped us a lot."
Su Yonglin also smiled and said, "Wanyan Liang has really helped us a lot. If he does not attract help or accept surrender, he will kill all those who betray him. Once he rebelled, he will be unable to survive and will inevitably be liquidated.
The reason why I first regarded Zhao Kaishan as the main force was to make Zhao Kaishan the leader, call on the landlords and gentry to rebel, and to pull his banner, cover up our actions, and decorate us as people like them.
As the rebellion became bigger and bigger, more and more Jurchen people and Jurchen officials were killed, and more land was occupied, and there was a situation between the rebellious landlords and gentry and Jin Ting.
