Chapter 69: Vacation and Tamna Coast Guard School

After the celebration feast, the officers began to cooperate with the shipwrights to repair the ship wounded in battle. Even if there is no damage, the boat should be driven into the newly dug dry dock and carefully maintained. In this way, the battleship can be in the best condition for the next battle.

Of course, during this period, there is no need for so many people on board. In addition to the battleships on combat readiness, most of the ships that were docked, officers and officers began to take shifts on leave.

According to the "Regulations", in addition to holidays such as the Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival, police officers and sergeants also have fixed holidays of varying numbers every year, and senior police officers at the level of police inspectors can enjoy two months of paid leave; Fifty days for mid-level officers at the Superintendent rank, forty days for Superintendent and Sergeant Ranks, and 30 days for Sergeant rank.

Police officers, who currently account for 90% of the total number of police officers, do not enjoy fixed holidays, but they can redeem them with points.

The point system is an important part of Zhao Gongzi's quantitative management of the coast guard. Winners of daily training and housekeeping competitions will receive valuable points, and there will be a fixed bonus points when patrolling and fighting. The excellent performance in the battle will naturally be reflected in the points with great weight.

For example, in this punishment operation, because they have been at sea for more than two months, all police officers and sergeants can get 50 long-distance points. Add to that streak of victories, and everyone can also get 100 victory points; Police officers who perform well in combat can also receive up to 200 additional military merit points.

This is also the result of the low difficulty of this battle and the lack of any points bonus. If the difficulty of the battle is rated B or higher, there will be a significant bonus to the battle and personal points.

It is said that a certain staff officer Liu, who did not want to be named, said that fortunately, the battle of the Guanmen Strait was fought quite heroically, otherwise the final evaluation of this punishment operation might fall to the D level, which would not only be a bonus, but also would shrink the points by a quarter. Terrible!

Points are the most cherished thing for police officers, as they can be redeemed for promotions, allowing officers to get early promotions.

For example, reserve police officers originally need to enlist in the army for one year before they can become regular, but after accumulating 100 points, they can apply to the police officer at any time and consume 100 points to be promoted to a third-level police officer in advance.

Originally, you could only be promoted to Officer 2 after serving as a 3rd Class Constable for two years, but if you have accumulated 200 points, you can apply in advance and be promoted to 2nd Class Constable. If you accumulate another 400 points, you can be promoted to a first-class police officer in advance, while it is normal to stay up for another three years.

In addition, the points can also be redeemed for holidays, but it is a little darker. 50 cents for one month, 150 cents for two months, and 300 cents for three months. A maximum of three months in a year.

Of course, who would be willing to squander their hard-earned points so much?

Although the police officers have generally accumulated more than 200 points through disciplinary operations, they must give priority to redeeming promotion qualifications...... 200 points is enough for a third-level officer to be promoted to a second-level officer. If they still have 50 points left, they will consider whether to redeem a month's vacation and go home to show off.

After all, along with the points, there are also generous rewards, even reserve police officers can get 100 taels, regular police officers generally exceed 150 taels, and those with outstanding achievements can even get 200 taels!

Wealth does not return to the hometown, it is like a brocade at night......

In the end, half of them chose to take a month's vacation home for the Chinese New Year. However, they chose to take a vacation from the first half of the month, so that with the addition of the New Year's 10-day holiday, they can come back after spending the Shangyuan Festival at home.

Half of the officers chose to just take the money home and continue to stick to their posts, saving points for an early promotion to sergeants. At that point, you'll be able to have a regular vacation like police officers without having to spend valuable points.

Only a handful of people spent 150 points for a full two months of vacation to go home and have a good time. Naturally, it attracted envy, jealousy and hatred from all his colleagues, and they all said that these people were too to burn bags!

Who knows what the elders said, what is this? Our cannon king spent 300 points and exchanged for three months' leave. The police officers suddenly felt that they were worthy of being the king of guns, and the capital was really thick! I can't envy it, I can't envy it......

Who is the king of guns? Canadian Wu ...... Oh no, Shandong Chu Liuxiang is also.

But contrary to what everyone imagined, Chu Liuxiang was actually quite depressed when he went to sea this time. I fought for two whole months in a row, and I didn't get the opportunity to show my face like the previous two times. In the end, he only scored a measly 200 points...... Although this is already the highest score on a bloody ship. But on the capital ship with the prefix 2, 300 points abound, and 200 points is just an average.

This made him deeply feel that in the future of warfare, small ships can only beat the side drum and play a supporting role, and if they want to be the protagonist, they must have meat to eat, they must be on the capital ship. Thinking about it, he was so stupid and naïve that he actually refused the invitation of the chief captain to be the commander of the flagship.

Now that I'm back to it, I don't have the face to ask the captain anymore.

Alas, it's too late to regret it......

What made him even worse was that after the red-haired ghost Ping's pointing, the shooting skills of the surrounding gunners improved rapidly. His cannon skills are no longer as outstanding as they used to be. Although it is not so obscure, it also makes Chu Liuxiang, who has always been accustomed to being a leader, very disappointed.

In addition, he is already a first-class police officer, and if he wants to be promoted to sergeant, in addition to asking for higher points, he also has to go to the preparatory non-commissioned officer class of the Coast Guard School for further study...... I heard that I have to take an exam after completing my studies. This made Chu Liuxiang feel even more afraid.

Although he has been in the army for two years, he has learned basic literacy through night school. But that is just the level of literacy, and it is even more uncomfortable for him to write and calculate than to be punished.

For all kinds of reasons, Chu Liuxiang was inevitably a little frustrated, and said that he would not make progress, so he would continue to be a police officer until he was old. So he exchanged all his points for a long vacation, and with the three hundred taels of silver he had saved this year, he was ready to go home to buy a house and land to marry a daughter-in-law, and practice his other gun.

Strive for the starting hit and give birth to a fat boy. Hey, hey, haha......

Thinking of this, Chu Liuxiang's heart was hot, he calculated, the garrison area arranged a boat to send them back, and they had to wait until the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and they would be at home until the end of the year, and they would definitely not be able to marry a daughter-in-law before the year. So let's go early on your own.

There happened to be a boat from the Gabo Island Marine Police Station, and he was going back to Xingang in the afternoon, but Chu Liuxiang couldn't wait for a moment, so he immediately applied for immediate leave, and took a boat to Xingang with a backpack on his back.

But I didn't ask, when will Xingang have a ship back to the mainland?

~~

Speaking of Zhao Gongzi, he took a day off at the base and participated in the groundbreaking ceremony of the 'Tamluo Coast Guard Academy' on the 25th.

Jin Ke picked and chosen, and finally decided to put the coast guard school on the sunrise peak of Chengshan. First of all, Sunrise Peak is big enough, and thousands of acres of flat land on the top of the mountain are enough to build a school that can accommodate thousands of people. And Sunrise Peak is the commanding height of the entire base, facing the vast sea, and the name also has an excellent meaning - the sunrise in the east, the coast guard force will rise from here!

In addition, this sunrise peak is less than 200 meters high, but whether it is a barracks, warehouse, workshop or office building, it is very inconvenient to go up and down, and even fresh water has to be taken from the mountain. Or allocate it to the coast guard academy and let them toss the trainees who come for training...... Oh no, better hone the will of the cadets.

After listening to Jinke's report, Zhao Gongzi thought so, so he approved the construction of the 'Tamluo Coast Guard School' at Sunrise Peak, and personally inscribed the name of the school.

Don't laugh, after a few years of practice, his handwriting has made great progress, and the neatness of the regular script is chasing Liu Zhao.

Well, at least that's what everyone around him says. They don't lie, right?

After the groundbreaking ceremony, Zhao Gongzi held a mobilization meeting for the Coast Guard School. At the meeting, he pointed out to all the personnel involved in the construction that they should continue to give full play to the spirit of Xishan Island of 'going all out and working hard', run fast in small steps to seize time, cross the river by feeling the stones, and teach while building. We will strive to spend one year to find out the teaching method and content that best suits us, and complete the supplementary courses for the existing coast guard officers and soldiers.

The navy is a technical branch, how can you dominate the seven seas with a group of illiterates?

In terms of faculty, in addition to Jin Ke, the executive vice president who is fully responsible for the construction of the school, he also appointed Tong Zigong as the provost and Pinto as the chief professor.

Pinto came from a family of seafarers in Portugal and studied at the nautical school founded by Prince Henry. In addition to knowing how to shoot cannons, he also knows how to map and map, meteorology, oceanography, shipbuilding, and navigation, and is an out-and-out treasure old boy.

Although his nautical skills are not advanced, the advantage is that they have been tested in Portuguese nautical business for a long time. For example, the quadrant for measuring altitude and the horizontal marker for measuring latitude have guided the Portuguese to sail around the world, and naturally they will not mislead people's children, which is very suitable for laying the foundation for the officers and soldiers of the coast guard.

In fact, Zhao Gongzi had already asked Pei Peijia and Hua Bozhen to study more scientific sextants and other nautical instruments in Nanjing, and to carry out research on surveying and ballistics. However, in view of the cruel reality that the officers and men of the coast guard are not even good at addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, it is better to complete basic geometry and algebra education first, and then access advanced knowledge.

After a period of discussion, it is tentatively planned to open four public courses for police officers next year, such as mathematics, oceanography, meteorology, and surveying, and in addition, different courses such as sailing, gunnery, logistics, damage management, and life-saving will be offered for different positions.

In addition to these courses, police officers also have to learn special courses such as military thinking, ship command, and fleet coordination.

Don't look at these courses as intimidating as they sound, but they're actually very plain. In addition to mathematics and surveying, a course can be taught in ten days and half a month.

Because no matter how deep it is, not only will the police officers not be able to learn it, but Mr. Zhao Gongzi and Heping will not be able to do it at present. Therefore, as long as the police officers study hard, it will not be a problem to complete their studies in one year.

In Zhao Gongzi's words, it is to build the skeleton first, and if you have bones, you don't have to worry about meat. After solving the problem from scratch, it is enough to slowly enrich the course content.
