The establishment of a regular military academy was approved at the strong suggestion of Li Mingyuan.

The camp academy was renamed the Army Officers Academy, the duration of study is tentatively set at two years, the first batch of cadets are mainly junior officers at the company and platoon level who have performed well in the troops, and after the subsequent regularization, the enrollment of cadets has changed to the mode of independent examination, and the scope of enrollment has been expanded from the army to all young people of school age who have a certain foundation for reading can sign up for the military academy examination.

In terms of the organization of military academies, five major institutions have been set up: the Military Administration Department, the Instructor Department, the Training Department, the Quartermaster Department, and the Military Judge Advocate General's Department.

The position of rector is of great importance, and Li Mingyuan intends to take it personally, and the responsibility of the provost is to exercise the obligation to manage the military academy in place of the president in the absence of the president.

The most suitable person in the National Defense Force for the post of provost is Liu Pu, but Liu Pu made it clear that after retiring from the active army, there is no suitable candidate for the time being.

The dean of education is the third person in the military academy after the principal and the provost, and the scope of his responsibilities involves all aspects of military academy training, and he needs to be a general with excellent military skills and rich military experience to serve; the Wehrmacht has been in the army for a short time, the officers of the army are generally young, and there is a lack of generals with sufficient military background.

After the completion of a large-scale industrial deal between Rio Gran do Sul and Prussia, formal official liaison was established, and in the new capital, Prussia merged the old commercial representative and military liaison offices into the Prussian embassy in Rio Gran do Sul, and sent special diplomatic officers to deal with commercial and military exchanges between the two countries.

In the Wehrmacht, there are 200 Prussian officers who have helped the Chinese train the army in accordance with the trade agreement, and since December last year, more than 200 Prussian officers who have been in the front line of the army to participate in the training of soldiers have been working for nearly 10 months, and there are only two months left before the one-year contract deadline expires.

More than 200 Prussian officers were assigned to nearly 40,000 Wehrmacht units, and an average Prussian officer was responsible for managing the training of 200 soldiers.

More than 1,000 Wehrmacht soldiers were punished for resisting instructor training during training, and 300 soldiers were dismissed from the field unit and transferred to the garrison for serious violations of military regulations.

After 10 months of training, the Wehrmacht, which was originally scattered and relied on soldiers to fight to the death, completed the first step in its transformation into a modern country, and tactical exercises such as combat tactics of small-scale units at the squad, platoon, and company levels, and medium-scale combined operations at the battalion and regiment level have become the basic tactical literacy requirements of all units of the National Defense Forces. Tactics such as coordination are also imitated.

In Li Mingyuan's eyes, the Wehrmacht's training results were fruitful, and when inspecting the troops' military exercises, the Prussian officers who were tasked with the training often praised the obedience and tenacity of the Chinese soldiers, believing that the Wehrmacht had the potential to become a powerful army like the Prussian Army in terms of the overall combat effectiveness of the troops.

Regarding the Prussian officer's self-touting affirmation, Li Mingyuan only smiled slightly and did not express any more opinions.

At the same time, because of the more than 200 years of rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the brainwashing and education of the corrupt Confucian gentry, the lack of martial and bloody national spirit is as serious as that.

Troops armed with money and excellent equipment can only guarantee one aspect of combat effectiveness, and a mobile social upward channel and a firm sense of national identity and patriotic belief are the fundamental ways to ensure combat effectiveness.

After the whole army divided the land, the Chinese who followed Li Mingyuan had the foundation to start a family and start a business, and their economic and living needs were fully guaranteed.

Culturally, Rio Gran do Sul prohibits braided hair and small foot binding, abolishes the 2,000-year-old prostitution system and prohibits forced prostitution.

among the three reform systems. The abolition of the money rat tail hairstyle and the binding of small feet did not encounter much resistance, the Wehrmacht was established in Rio Gran do Sul, there is no need to worry about the restrictions of the Manchu government, there is no psychological pressure to shave off the braids, and the few women in Rio Gran do not have the custom of white European descent, they do not have the custom of binding small feet, and the abolition of the small foot binding has no effect on them, but the abolition of the prostitution system has attracted the opposition of most Chinese, including some officers in the Wehrmacht, who believe that lust is also human nature, and the sex ratio of men and women in Rio Gran do Sul is originally large, and then the ban was announced*** Wouldn't it make those Chinese young people who didn't marry a daughter-in-law hold back their problems.

Li Mingyuan could not not consider the domestic boiling opposition, and finally thought twice, made a certain compromise, and the decision to abolish the prostitution system remained unchanged, from the day the decree was issued, the Han Chinese, Miao, Dong and other Chinese women who belonged to the same Chinese branch were not allowed to engage in prostitution, and unnaturalized white and other Asian women need to be filed with the government department before they can engage in *** activities, and once foreign women choose to naturalize as Chinese, they will lose their corresponding qualifications.

In addition to the clearly promulgated laws and regulations, in daily life, Li Mingyuan also made many plans with the slogan of reviving the Chinese civilization of the Qin and Han dynasties, such as implementing the reform of Hanfu styles, absorbing the clothing styles of Western countries and later generations, transforming the wide-mouthed and long-sleeved Hanfu into a new style of Hanfu that is convenient to make and wear, and at the same time retaining a part of the classical Hanfu as a national ceremonial costume for major celebrations and national sacrifices.

There are also incentives for retired soldiers to breed horses, and August 15 is designated as the Qingqing Festival every year (August in the spring of South America), and horse racing activities are organized in various parts of Rio Grande do Sul during the Qingqing Festival, and at the same time, the villagers' joint protection system is implemented to encourage the Chinese to learn musket shooting techniques and allow the Chinese to keep guns and weapons for self-defense.

There are hundreds of laws and policies aimed at national rejuvenation, among which Li Mingyuan attaches the most importance to the most is the recently promulgated "On My National Believing," which he personally participated in writing.

The book "On My National Belief" is a professional book written by Li Mingyuan to systematically discuss the transformation and reshaping of national characteristics by absorbing the theories of national formation in later generations.

The main contents of the book are summarized in three aspects:

The interests of a country are above all else.

2. A nation, a country, and a leader. The monarch is the representative of the state and exercises state rights in place of the people. The broad masses of the people should respect the monarch and obey the leadership of the monarch and the state.

Third, we believe in the simple truth of natural selection and survival of the fittest, and establish a philosophical system based on the theory of evolution. Based on the theory of evolution, the people are encouraged to establish personal values of martial arts, scientific knowledge, and independence and self-reliance.

At the beginning of the 20th century, there was no national infighting and splitting, suppressing the main nation and a strong country.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire was a country with Germans as the main body, and after the Czech, Hungarian and other ethnic groups were merged into one country, the rulers of the country, in order to achieve the so-called national equality, stipulated that the languages of all ethnic minorities were also the official languages, and in areas where Germans and ethnic minorities were mixed, ethnic minorities were given priority in the selection of officials and company employees.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire's policy of suppressing the Juche ethnic groups and giving excessive preferential treatment to ethnic minorities not only did not win their approval, but strengthened their national consciousness: "Didn't you say that you want ethnic equality? Since it is the equality of ethnic groups, it is not too much for us ethnic minorities to manage their own affairs? The central government cannot interfere in our military politics, we must have independent autonomy, and we must have our own army and government ......"

After the slogan of ethnic equality was shouted, the ethnic minorities demanded more "reasonable" demands, and as the central government, should they agree or not?

Trapped in the complex national question, during the First World War, the Czech, Slovakia, Poland and other ethnic minorities in Austria-Hungary joined the hostile countries to fight against the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the minority governments in Austria-Hungary also disobeyed and resisted the orders issued by the central government. However, the difference is that the newly established countries do not hold the Germans high as their masters, but do not hesitate to expel them, and the two very different results are embarrassing.

Li Mingyuan came from later generations, and he has seen a lot of all kinds of farces about ethnic issues, what Han nationality is a cultural nation, propaganda of Hanfu is extreme nationalism, saying that those who revive the Han nationality are indignant fools, and all kinds of strange rumors are popular, but the Han nationality, with a population of more than one billion, has become a weak person in public opinion.

At that time, Li Mingyuan was just a mercenary who was in danger, and he had no ability or interest in arguing with those people.

No longer his position is not responsible, the officials are responsible for major state affairs, and an ordinary mercenary, even if he worries about state affairs, is just a superfluous move, not only will not be understood, but will be laughed at by others.

And the rebirth came more than 100 years ago, Li Mingyuan became the leader of a country, with the power to change the fate of the Chinese people, and naturally did not want the things of later generations to be repeated in the country he established single-handedly, so it became very necessary to combine the requirements of the industrial age and cooperate with the excellent cultural traditions left by the Chinese ancestors to transform a unified and suitable national belief for the Chinese nation.

The theory of natural selection and survival of the fittest mentioned in it was admired by many Western countries, and the colonial empires such as Britain, France, the Netherlands, and Spain had proved the correctness of this sentence hundreds of years ago.

"On My National Beliefs" lasted about five months from the time it was written to the official completion of the book, and during the creation period, in order to enable ordinary Chinese people to understand the contents of the book, Li Mingyuan successively deleted and revised it three times, removed a large number of complicated and incomprehensible parts, and explained some professional knowledge in easy-to-understand language, and when the book was finally completed, only 70,000 words remained in the first draft of more than 200,000 words.

Two days ago, Li Mingyuan and senior officers of the National Defense Forces jointly discussed and decided to make "On My National Belief" a must-read material for the army and included it in the planned textbooks of military academies.
