"At the last meeting, the work of the Military Commission was questioned. Some people thought that your second grandfather is too old and is not suitable to continue to lead the country." Ye Ziping said to his son Ye Kai.
If the matters at the Central Political Bureau meeting did not involve relatively sensitive matters, Zi Ping would not mind telling Ye Kai about the parts related to the old Ye family.
"Do they have better candidates?" Ye Kai asked with a frown.
"Someone proposed that Lieutenant General Tan Shengguo be added as deputy chief of the Military Commission." Ye Ziping replied.
"Tan Shengguo? He is just a lieutenant general." Ye Kai was a little surprised, but he immediately thought of something, "Oh, could it be that he is Bi Shengjie's brother? It seems to be Comrade Jiang Cheng's group."
When Mr. Tan was still alive, he had four sons, each of whom were named after the four characters "country, hero, hero". However, only two survived later, namely Tan Shengguo Middle School, who served as the vice president of Military University.
General, and Deputy Director of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China Tan Shengjie.
It's just that Lieutenant General Tan Shengguo belongs to the Wenzhi faction. He has been working in the Military University before, far away from the smoke, but his official career is very good. Now he is only in his early fifties, but he is already a Lieutenant General, and he has reached the red line for promotion.
.
It is said that Comrade Jiang Cheng was able to rise to power because of the appreciation of Comrade Fang He. His subordinates relied on the assistance of the two Tan brothers. The two brothers complemented each other in both literature and martial arts. They indeed made many plans for Comrade Jiang Cheng.
Policy.
Now that Comrade Jiang Cheng has gradually secured his position as the No. 1 leader, the meritorious officials who should be rewarded have naturally begun to emerge. The two Tan brothers are the first to be rewarded.
Strictly speaking, although the two Tan brothers were born in the Tailuzi Party, judging from their experience, they should also be classified as academics, especially since they also have many supporters in the academics. These people are
He is a supporter of Comrade Jiang Cheng.
"In the past two years, Comrade Jiang Cheng basically avoided getting involved in military affairs, so our old Ye family's influence in the military grew rapidly. But now the situation has changed, and his position is secure, so he wants to
Taking back power is also what I want to do." Ye Ziping sighed.
How do you say that? When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooked.
From the traditional concept of the Chinese people, if one does not have military power in his hands, he will not have the full confidence to sit in the position of the leader, so it is inevitable for him to ask for power in military affairs.
"However, it is not appropriate to let the Wenzhi faction lead the troops." Ye Kai pointed out unceremoniously, "They are civilian generals who have never even fought in a battle. They have no blood at all. After a few years of leading troops, the Eagles will not be able to do anything."
He is about to be treated like a little chicken. Some of the military power can be let go, but Tan Shengguo has no way to enter the decision-making level of the Military Commission. The old Ye family must resist with all their strength! Not only the old Ye family must resist with all their strength, but also the big bosses in the military.
A consensus needs to be formed, and if you want to be in the core circle of the Central Military Commission, you must be unanimously recognized by everyone!"
Ye Ziping said, "Your tone is too loud, but this matter is relatively big, and your grandfather and the others have to consider it carefully. I think it is probably unstoppable. It is said that Comrade Jiang Cheng's opinion seems to be relatively firm.
"
"You have to block it even if you can't. This is a major matter related to the future of the army, and we must not give in." Ye Kai said.
Ye Ziping felt a little strange. He wondered why his son was so crazy. What did this kind of thing have to do with him?
Besides, Comrade Jiang Cheng's position has become more and more stable now. Although the senior leaders have the same important say, they cannot fail to give him face. Although Mr. Ye is determined to stay in office for one term, he is definitely energetic.
It's not as good as it used to be. At most, it just plays the role of sitting in charge and competing with Comrade Jiang Cheng. There's no need for that.
"This matter is not a trivial matter. I'm just taking precautions." Ye Kai felt a little depressed when he saw that his father didn't understand his opinions, but he couldn't say some things.
Can he say that the army twenty years later has been turned into a herd of sheep by the Wenzhi faction?
If you say this, no one will believe it.
The modernization of the army must be carried out, and the army must also escort the country's modernization. However, the army cannot go without fighting for a hundred years. What is the difference between an army that has not experienced the baptism of war and a militia? Or it may not be as good as during the war.
Where's the minpong?
After talking to his father, Ye Kai hung up the phone with the second old man and talked about the matter.
"It can't be stopped. No. 1's attitude is very resolute. Tan Shengguo's personal conditions have reached the red line for promotion. It is estimated that this appointment must be passed. It is impossible for the old Ye family to have a unified voice in the army, otherwise they will attack in groups.
That's it." The second old man was also a little scratching his head about this matter.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't have a good impression of Tan Shengguo. He knew this man. He liked to talk, but he was unrealistic. He was good at making lies. He had no unique insights into military affairs. Comrade Jiang Cheng's
This idea is indeed a bit too unique, and now several other military leaders are also somewhat resistant to this proposal.
"A lion can turn a group of sheep into lions, and a sheep can turn a group of lions into sheep." Ye Kai said, "Anyway, the Wenzhi faction has many disadvantages in running the army. This example cannot be used, otherwise twenty years later, if you want to
If we fight again, we won’t even have usable soldiers. Didn’t we learn too many lessons from the self-defense counterattack against Annan Kingdom?”
The first battle against Annan was because the army had not experienced a major war for decades, and as a result, it was almost degraded in all aspects. It suffered serious losses at the beginning of the contact, and the losses were quite heavy. Later, it had to be replaced by veterans. After some transfers,
, and then gradually adapted to it, and finally beat Ananguo to a state of great disarray.
Mr. Ye was naturally very clear about this matter, so when Ye Kai mentioned this matter, he also thought deeply about it.
"Your grandpa may not necessarily have objections to what he means," the second old man said.
If the second old man is the only one who objects, it will naturally be unstoppable. But if Mr. Ye also objects, it will easily form a bad impression that the old Ye family wants to control the military. In this way, the gossips will
There are just too many people, which is not good for the future development of the old Ye family.
Now that we have reached the old Ye family, Mr. Ye and the second Mr. Ye have no room for development. They have reached the top. The hope of the next second generation depends on Ye Ziping. Now that Ye Ziping has entered the game, he will still count on him in the future.
He has offended too many powerful people when he joins the regular committee, so it is really inappropriate.
Therefore, neither Mr. Ye nor the other two elders were willing to stand in the way of Zhao Shengguo's rise to power.
It's just that what Ye Kai said is not unreasonable. This issue makes it difficult to make a choice and gives me a headache.
"It would be easier if I could make the decision alone." The second old man sighed.
Ye Kai patted his head and suddenly had an idea and said, "There is a way."
"What?" After hearing this, the second old man was a little surprised.
"Aren't they trying to embarrass you with the Soviet coup? Let's follow suit and use things in the United States to embarrass them. This is called reciprocity. It gets things done while making it difficult for people to find fault." Ye
Kai said.
"Tell me what you think." The second old man was very interested in this.
To be honest, the people in the Ye family are not actually very Machiavellian. In the era of Mr. Ye and the second Mr. Ye, it was basically chance of getting to the top. There might be some struggles, but most of them were in the open.
, it is not as complicated as it is now. One thing can involve the interests of countless people, and the intrigues are fierce.
This time, Ye Ziping went to Pearl City, and before he even got off the plane, secret battles in all aspects had already begun. It cannot but be said that everyone's IQs have made great progress.
It's just that if there are too many strategies, people will inevitably become feminine. It is more suitable for people like Tan Shengguo to engage in intelligence work or staff work, but it is a bit inappropriate to be at the decision-making level, so Ye Kai firmly expressed his opposition.
"This Gulf War has exposed many misunderstandings in the theoretical construction of the military. Taking this as an opportunity, why not criticize the work of the Military University, maybe more harshly. For the sake of national security, the modernization of the military must be carried out well. Theory
The guidance in this regard must be advanced, and those who are in the corpse position must bear part of the responsibility." Ye Kai said to the second old man.
After hearing this, the second old man thought that Ye Kai's idea was very good, practical and tenable.
As the highest academic institution in the military, Military University has always been a place to train senior officers for the military. If there is a problem with the guiding ideology of Military University and there is a serious lag in modernization, it will have a great negative impact on the entire military.
After the Gulf War this time, some of the problems that were exposed are enough to show that the military college has not done enough in all aspects. It is not an exaggeration to evaluate it with a corpse.
As soon as the second old man thought about it, he felt that Ye Kai's suggestion was very good, and what was even more rare was that he could use it to vent his anger.
It is the duty of the deputy chief of the Military Commission to criticize the ineffectiveness of the organizations under the military.
Sure enough, two days later, at a meeting of senior generals within the Military Commission, in front of hundreds of generals, the second old man talked about the importance of military modernization, put forward several elements of modern national defense, and at the same time discussed the work of the military academy.
He made severe criticisms regarding the serious lag in the informatization construction of the military.
As the person in charge of the Military University, Lieutenant General Tan Shengguo had to make self-criticism in public, admitting that there were misunderstandings and omissions in the thinking of the Military University's construction, and that the leadership of the Military University bore the main responsibility.
For a moment, the military generals were shocked, thinking that the second old man had finally shown his strength!
