As usual, the government always issues some State of the Union address, and this year the military also made some moves.
After attending the New Year's Day party of the Northwest Military Region, the second elder gave a public speech and gave a series of instructions on the issue of corruption within the military.
He believes that under the new economic situation, the anti-corruption work of the military is particularly important. Living standards have improved, but whether the combat effectiveness can be improved is a question. Catching out the bugs in the system in a timely manner and ensuring the combat effectiveness of the military is the current focus.
A task carried out by the district.
At the same time, the second elder also said that safeguarding national sovereignty, territorial integrity, social stability, and strong national defense are the basic starting points for the modernization of the army. The principle of the party commanding the gun cannot be shaken. The army should follow the party and there should be no discussion.
The second elder also proposed that the military should follow the unified deployment of the General Political Department and the Discipline Inspection Commission of the Military Commission and start to focus on the bidding and bidding in the fields of engineering construction, materials and equipment, medical and health, military transportation, finance, military supplies, communications, paid services and social security.
, commercial bribery in military-civilian economic exchanges such as procurement, and ensure that senior and middle-level military leaders and agency cadres strictly exercise self-discipline and engage in politics with integrity.
In response to several corruption incidents involving high-level military cadres that occurred last year, Mr. Er also made some analysis and believed that it is necessary to carry out a large-scale disciplinary rectification within the military to eliminate the small group of people who are not firm in revolutionary will and are mixed within the military.
The moths were removed.
Compared with the New Year's Day speeches of Comrade Jiang Cheng and Premier Yun on the party and government aspects, the words of the second old man seemed a bit murderous. Many people felt uneasy, fearing that the second old man's knife would fall on their heads.
superior.
After Ye Kai saw it, he felt a little strange. He didn't know why the second old man chose this time to suddenly go on a killing spree. At the end of the year and the beginning of the new year, everyone's thoughts should not be on this.
So Ye Kai ran to the second old man to talk about this matter and other things by the way.
On the second old man's side, people were coming and going, and everyone looked nervous, as if something had happened.
After the secretary made the announcement, Ye Kai was led in. The second old man here was talking to someone. After waiting for a while, he was called in.
"What happened? Why is everyone keeping a straight face?" Ye Kai asked curiously.
The second old man replied, "A staff officer of the Naval Equipment Department misappropriated more than 30 million in equipment money and used it for loan sharking. In the end, he could not get it back. This incident made everyone feel ashamed."
"More than 30 million is not a small amount." Ye Kai nodded after hearing this.
"This is just one of the things. During his tenure at the General Logistics Department, a deputy commander of the Navy used the barracks infrastructure project to make a profit of more than 100 million. Now it has been controlled." The second old man said, "This person is already a lieutenant general.
Military rank, now it’s completely over.”
"Oh, this is another big fish..." Ye Kai was surprised again after hearing this.
It turns out that when the deputy commander of the Navy was in charge of the Infrastructure and Barracks Department of the General Logistics Department, he was mainly responsible for the construction of military barracks, ports, agencies and other infrastructure. He actually had great financial power. During his time in the General Logistics Department, he was fully responsible for the renovation of all military barracks.
During the same period, the military housing reform project centered on establishing a housing subsidy system also began to be launched on a trial basis, and the monetization of housing allocation began to be trialled internally.
The huge amount of funds and the army's new housing reform policy made him feel that there was an opportunity to exploit. In addition, the army's bidding system was relatively loose compared to the bidding system for other public buildings. Sometimes, due to reasons such as involving military secrets or armaments, he
It is carried out through invitation for bidding or negotiation, and to a large extent, the contracting method is still adopted where the leader has the final say.
Because of his great power, the funds he took out were approximately more than 150 million, not including unverified funds.
"Is it no wonder that the military is preparing for a large-scale movement?" Ye Kai asked.
"The scale will definitely not be small, but the specific number of people who need to be investigated remains to be discussed. After all, the army cannot cause chaos at all. Once chaos occurs, things will be difficult to deal with." The second old man frowned and replied, "It is also under consideration now.
, kill a few chickens and scare the monkeys, that’s the most it can do.”
Ye Kai didn't feel the slightest surprise when he heard this. Nowadays, there are quite a number of revolutionaries among the top brass in the military. However, these people's influence in the military has been deeply rooted and they cannot lose their power. If there is no suitable name, the top brass will
I am not willing to touch them. After all, it is not easy to kill them, but it is not impossible. However, after killing them, it will hurt the muscles and bones in some aspects. This is the most troublesome.
matter.
"The problem of military corruption has been around for a long time and is difficult to avoid." The second old man mentioned this matter and remembered the past. "When the People's Republic of China was first founded, there was a wave of violence."
After the founding of the Republic, the army moved from rural areas to cities, and the number of middle- and senior-level cadres increased rapidly. The focus during this period was to prevent the corruption of military life. From 1953 to the first half of 1954, the divisions directly accepted by the General Political Department
Among the above-mentioned cases of party members and cadres violating laws and disciplines, 30% are related to corruption in life.
In July 1953, some people reported to Mr. Peng that some military-level cadres showed signs of corruption in pursuit of enjoyment. Mr. Peng immediately criticized these cadres. Unexpectedly, he was retorted that Zhongnanhai had chosen dance partners, and we danced
What’s wrong with dancing and engaging in cultural and entertainment activities?
Mr. Peng learned after getting to know that the Central Police Bureau was selecting dance partners for central leadership comrades, and the standards were very high, requiring beautiful appearance and good posture. Some of the selected female comrades were even rejected twice in a row, causing dissatisfaction among the relevant leading comrades of the military region.
Later, Mr. Luo ordered the deputy director of general affairs and the chief of the Central Police Bureau who signed the telegram to make a written review and remove the secretary who arbitrarily imposed appearance conditions on the selection of female cultural troupe members.
After this incident, the General Political Department sent a working group to go deep into the army to investigate the corrupt behavior of taking credit and pursuing pleasure.
Within half a year, 3 corps-level cadres, 12 army-level cadres, and 205 division-level cadres were found to be corrupt and in violation of laws and disciplines.
"When dealing with these problems back then, we were absolutely ruthless. We would arrest those who should be arrested, imprison those who should be imprisoned, and kill those who should be killed. There would be no obstacles at all." The second old man recalled the situation at that time,
He said to Ye Kai.
The army that came out of the war years just now is still very militarized when it comes to organization. Unlike now, it has experienced too much peacetime and discipline has become loose. Favors are more important than legal principles. Once you have to deal with senior cadres and intercessors,
A lot of them came first, which gave me a huge headache.
"After the September 13th Incident, the serious damage and negative impact caused to the army were fully exposed. In 1975, Comrade Fang He began to reorganize the army. At the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission, he focused on five problems existing in the army
, First, it is a bit bloated. The total number of people in the army in 1971 increased by 3.6 million compared with 1959. Second, it is a bit scattered. Third, it is a bit arrogant. Fourth, it is a bit extravagant. Fifth, it is a bit lazy." The second old man said, "The Military Commission has formulated specific
Rectification measures have been carried out throughout the military to rectify work styles and disciplines. Some personnel and units that violated mass discipline have been criticized and dealt with. Some people and units that occupy a large amount of local houses, land and other property will be cleared according to the requirements of the Military Commission.
Those who cannot be cleared temporarily must provide explanations and explanations to the local government.”
Ye Kai nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Although he had not experienced those days, he could still feel the tough style of the older generation at this time. He did not have so many scruples at all. He would just deal with it if it was necessary.
I am stumbling, but when I do things now, I am hesitant and helpless.
However, after the reform and opening up, the military's anti-corruption struggle has focused on the construction of the anti-corruption system, striving to transform the rule of men into the rule of law and effectively prevent corruption.
At this stage, the market economy has exposed military personnel to more troubles. Corruption and bribery in the military are increasing day by day. In the two years from the beginning of 1982 to the end of 1983, the military uncovered a total of 174 major cases, mainly involving smuggling and trafficking.
, bribery and bribery, corruption and theft, speculation and fraud, illegal business, tax evasion and other issues.
"To date, the entire military has investigated and dealt with hundreds of rape cases involving cadres above the rank of division commander, of whom more than two-thirds are chief officers, and nearly one-half are leading cadres who are about to retire.
, Department leaders of physical affairs account for more than one-third. It can be said that the top leaders who control key departments and key powers have become a group with a high incidence of military corruption." The second old man said, "In the face of this situation, the Military Commission is committed to starting from the mechanism and source.
To govern the government, we must first establish a clean government system, and then investigate and deal with individual issues."
"I think the main problem is that we want to eliminate some unstable forces within the army, right?" Ye Kai put forward his own point of view.
After hearing this, the second old man smiled and said, "There are some reasons for this."
Although he did not explain his words clearly, the meaning was still very clear. Now that the change of leadership is imminent, all aspects of infiltration of military power are being carried out secretly. Everyone wants to grab the barrel of the gun in their own hands, so the second
The old man has also used his big weapon. Since everyone is a little restless, let's start with a round of anti-corruption.
As long as there are people who are restless in the military, it is not difficult to find something wrong with them. Corruption is just one of them. In addition to other things involving military secrets or national security, it is difficult to find something wrong with them.
It couldn't be easier to catch a few typical people and kill them for their majesty.
