Chapter 227 System and People 6
"Leader, I made the mistake of deploying troops without permission," Gao Yuan replied after getting out of the queue.

"Our Xinghan Alliance has always been surrounded by enemies. As the director of the Naval Division, you have the right to mobilize troops to deal with unexpected enemy situations. So your biggest mistake is not to mobilize troops without authorization, but to act on assumptions." Liu Xin said decisively. , and then analyzed it to everyone.

"The different status of an official determines the different levels of information he comes into contact with. The information no one comes into contact with is comprehensive, and there will always be gaps. Even I definitely have no military intelligence on the enemy situation around the Xinghan League. Si knows.

The lack of information or incomplete information will affect decision-making.The decision you make may be right from your perspective, but at a higher level, or even from an overall perspective, it may be wrong.

The harm of having incomplete information is already so great, and the harm of acting on assumptions is even more serious.

Making decisions without authorization based on your own guesses or past experience will very likely lead the person who makes the decision into the abyss of hell, and then affect the overall strategic development. "

After taking a moment to let everyone understand, Liu Xinqi continued:
"What I mean by this is to tell everyone that no one is omniscient. Therefore, there needs to be a system to restrain everyone and let everyone act within the framework of the rules, so that even if there is a slight deviation, it will not lead to a big mistake. .”

After explaining the theory, Liu Xinqi began to analyze specifically:
"Gao Yuan's reassignment of the First Fleet seems to be nothing now. The impact is not big. It just caused the First Fleet to make a wasted trip and delayed the acquisition of materials from Jiangnan to support Dengzhou. However, if we assume that because of the delay of more than ten days, the Jin army invaded Hangzhou just before our fleet went south again, it will result in our fleet not being able to buy a grain of rice or a piece of cloth in Hangzhou. .

Purchasing supplies from Jiangnan to Dengzhou for storage may seem like a small matter, but it is particularly important for the overall development of the Xinghan League.If we are completely blocked by the Jin Kingdom in the future in the north, the amount of supplies we have in reserve will determine how long we can resist and whether we can rise from the ashes of resistance. "

"Also, before Gao Yuan sent the first fleet to Japan, he was not clear about the development of the war in Japan, and did not understand the gap between the enemy and our forces. Let us assume again that if the pirates of Japan are indeed very powerful, our second and third All fleets have been defeated, so what is the use of the first fleet in the past? It can only give another wave of merit to the enemy. If the Japanese pirates are not strong, and the second and third fleets have been defeated, then the first fleet What’s the use of the past? It’s just a wasted trip.”

"Only when the second and third fleets are in a stalemate with the Japanese pirates, the first fleet's support can be effective, but how likely is it to reach a stalemate? Even if a stalemate is reached, the stalemate has a time limit. First Could the fleet arrive during the stalemate by coincidence?"

"So, re-sending the First Fleet to support the Japanese country will most likely be an idle move and a wasted trip. If I really need the support of the First Fleet, I would have sent people back to Dengzhou to summon the Second Fleet. I will leave a message when the time comes. If the war situation is so critical that even the ship that delivers the message cannot be sent back, then there is no need for you to rescue."

"Now do you understand where you went wrong?" Liu Xinqi asked Gao Yuan.

"I understand, I didn't think it through and was good at making decisions. I am willing to accept the punishment from the alliance leader." Gao Yuan replied, his voice full of guilt, thinking that he had indeed realized that his decision this time was wrong.

"I previously established laws such as the "Xinghan League Debt Law" and "Xinghan League Land Law" to establish the concept of legal system and oppose the rule of man. In my opinion, manpower is limited, and people's decisions are often affected by their own qualities, The influence of experience and mood when making decisions.

The rule of man is personal arbitrary and dictatorial, with the disadvantages of arbitrariness and variability, and the results of governance will be unfair at every turn.

The rule of law is different. When the law was first established, it was the result of everyone's joint efforts and conspiracy. It was an expression of everyone's consensus and it was the rule of the majority.The rule of law has the characteristics of unity, stability, and authority, and it maximizes fairness and justice. Then Liu Xinqi said to Gao Yuan: "The rule of law is to legislate in advance, while the rule of man is to make rules and regulations after the fact and act expediently."Since I advocate the rule of law and oppose the rule of man, I can no longer deal with you without "prior legislation", because I have not stipulated in advance how you should be punished for the mistakes you made. "

"However, your rescheduling of the first fleet to Japan did cause a certain waste of resources. As a decision-maker, you should bear part of the losses. This formed a debt relationship with the Xinghan League, and the "Xinghan League Debt Law" applies ". Since you are a first offender, I will punish you with one year's monthly salary, and you will be deducted half of the fine every month for two years." Liu Xinqi told the result of his punishment, which was regarded as a high-level punishment.

"Thank you, Alliance Leader!" Gao Yuan was about to kneel down and thank him, but Liu Xinqi quickly stepped forward to support him.

"No need! We have abolished the kneeling ceremony between superiors and subordinates. Don't make any more mistakes." Liu Xinqi joked, relaxing the solemn atmosphere at the scene.

"Thank you, Alliance Leader. I will think twice when encountering problems in the future, follow the laws and regulations, and handle them properly!" Gao Yuan thanked him again.

"Okay, I accept your thanks." Liu Xinqi replied, and then said to everyone:

"In view of the fact that the cause of this incident was to save me, I hereby declare here: Recently, my magical power has increased again, and my strength and speed have exceeded that of ordinary people by more than ten times. It can be said that no one in this world can forcefully stay. Save me, even if I am at sea, I will control the big fish in the sea to survive. So in the future, everyone must not change the established development plan or combat plan of Xinghan League just because of saving me, because if I encounter difficulties, I will not be able to escape. , then it’s useless for anyone to come.”

"do you understand?"

"Understood! Leader!" The participants shouted in unison.

"Does anyone else have any opinions?" Liu Xinqi asked.

Zhou Xinyuan couldn't help but ask: "Besides me, is there a Legalist teacher besides me?"

"No, you are my only teacher." Liu Xinqi was embarrassed. Zhou Xinyuan is a standard Confucian school, and Liu Xinqi's Legalist thoughts all come from the souls of later generations. It is not wrong to say that there is another teacher, but this teacher has not been born yet.

"As you said, everything should be done in accordance with the law. Wouldn't it be too rigid? One life is two, two begets three, and three begets all things. There are endless things in the world. How can we explain everything clearly?" Zhou Xinyuan asked again.

"The teacher is right. If there is a law to follow, then act in accordance with the law. If there is no law to follow, you can naturally act in a cheap way. Just follow one principle and put the interests of Xinghan Alliance first."
