Military schools, what is the importance? It is to train generals in batches. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info It is strange that in the history of China, there has never been an emperor who has set up a military academy, and it was not until the Qing Dynasty that a military academy was systematically established to train military generals.

How did you select generals before? has seniority, and has a knife and a gun to fight out, otherwise it depends on promotion, or martial arts.

In addition, some Jiangmen families are also very important, and the talents cultivated by the door can soon stand out, in addition to the network, the family history, long-term edification, is also a very important factor. But no matter how you choose, the human factor is very important.

The morale and training of an army depend on a certain person, and because of the success of the person, the situation of the person going to politics and dying will not only appear in the court, but also in the army. Even if the dynasty is still in its heyday, the control over the army is still very strict, and the strength of an army depends on the chief officer and the general of the army.

It is because of the uneven source of selection, and unlike the imperial examination, there is a unified model that can be followed, and the military generals are selected, each with its own way of leading troops, and the eight immortals cross the sea, and the way of leading troops, each showing their magical powers.

This makes it easy for an army to be labeled as someone. Many armies, many people, have become irreplaceable. And then it evolved into an army of a certain person, a certain surname.

In this way, the army will be more guarded against and use civilian weapons to control the military, resulting in the low status of the warriors. The style of writing is at its peak, but the martial arts are not obvious.

Relying on an army of one man and one surname. If in troubled times, it is easy to regard one's own army as a private army, entrench one side, and form a separation. This phenomenon was especially severe in the Tang Dynasty. Starting from An Lushan, the local feudal towns were very tolerant of being controlled by one family, and there were many people who had to follow suit. This is not a one-generation affair, throughout the Republic of China, and those warlords in the early Republic of China were also like this.

Li Chen's establishment of the military academy is to form an institutionalized model to train generals and soldiers. It is to go to war according to what Shi Xiong said, with cold calculations, and certain rules.

There are many so-called drill codes in foreign military schools, infantry, cavalry, artillery. This system of fighting according to the code of conduct is the most important for the British, and the British Navy strictly follows the code of conduct, unless you are Nelson, otherwise you have to fight according to the code of conduct.

According to the discipline, it's okay to lose the battle. If you don't follow the rules, you will also have trouble winning the battle. Li Chen wants to establish such a system. It is necessary to train officers and soldiers in batches and fight according to a pattern. In this way, if there is a law to follow, we will not succeed because of people, we can get rid of people's colors, and we will not become a private army.

Because there is a law to follow, there is a standard for judgment, and there is a law to follow, and the person who takes over will not be at a loss. If you have a law to follow, you will know what to do. If there is a law, everyone will no longer be irreplaceable.

Because there is something to replace, it will not become a separatist force. Any army, any person, from the general to the small soldier, can be replaced at will, so why should they divide one side, you are not irreplaceable, whoever is unstable I will replace him.

The top is not easy to change, I have to change it from the bottom. Anyway, there is a law to follow, and it is the same for anyone to replace. Even if you are the lord of a land, with a large army in your hands and financial resources in your hands, all your middle and low-level officers do not listen to you, you are just an empty general.

Or, to put it more bluntly, under this system, there is no such thing as a long-term inventory somewhere. The purpose of setting up a military academy is to share experience, and you have been stationed there for a long time, and you have passed on the experience, and there are people who can replace you.

Don't pass it on? Anyway, everyone learns the same way at the beginning, and there will always be someone who can take over from scratch. No one is irreplaceable, so don't be too complacent.

You say, it's not going to be too rigid, too inflexible, to be fully normalized. Will it be like the Song Dynasty, where the princes of the court blindly commanded, and the marches and battles had to be arranged according to the original arrangement, and regardless of whether they were suitable for the battlefield or not, everything had to be fought according to the formation map given by the imperial court.

First of all, why should the staff officers be formally fixed? Just to avoid this. is a group of civilian officials who don't know how to soldier, and they are busy working thousands of miles away. Commanded by those who know and have experience.

Secondly, the generals will also be given the right to make some decisions on the battlefield, and they also have some staff officers around them, who can give tips to the commander-in-chief to avoid being unaware of the changes in the battlefield due to remote control, leading to measures and even defeats.

Finally, standardization does not mean that it completely loses adaptability, of course, it is necessary to standardize for many situations, not the kind of rigid and rigid one.

It is better to consider all kinds of situations in advance, standardize and dogmatize, than to deal with some absurdities at the end of the matter, or even to be at a loss, and to lose the ground. Besides, acting dogmatically, the British Navy is the best, have they ever lost a battle?

If there is still a defeat in accordance with the dogma, it is to be reviewed, and it is a completely new situation, and the dogma does not have it. Or they didn't do it at all. If it is the former, fail once or twice, what is the matter, study it again, and start again. If it is the kind of World War I gambling on the fortune of the country and can't lose, then there will be a situation that is not in the code, and you don't take precautions, then you deserve to die.

Don't the Chinese have such a system? In fact, China is not without such norms, in all dynasties, there are many military books, from the Art of War to the Taiyin Fu Jing, some of which are written in a foggy way, which basically talks about how to use soldiers.

Some are more detailed, such as the Tang Dynasty's military art of guarding the public and joining the army. The team had to be composed in detail, how it should be organized, how it should march and how it should be fought.

However, these tactics are just references. Let's not talk about whether the generals are illiterate, and even if they are literate, they may not necessarily do it. Therefore, there are many military books, and leading troops to fight still depends on individuals and experience. Everyone has their own set of practices and their own set of criteria for judging.

The book of soldiers, after all, is used for reference, the Chinese pay attention to the letter of faith, it is better to have no book, it becomes a book, and it is not possible to believe it, so those book of soldiers are just taken to see.

Back in the palace, the next day, Li Chen began to deal with many issues. One is whether to establish a non-commissioned officer school. In the modern army, it can be roughly divided into three classes, soldiers, non-commissioned officers, and officers. In a unit, the veteran non-commissioned officer is usually the backbone of an army.

Usually there are 30 people in a platoon, and the platoon commander may have just graduated from a military academy. Considering that in the future, it is necessary to establish a large-scale graduation of cadets and the rank of non-commissioned officers.

The difference between a non-commissioned officer and an officer is that the officer is equivalent to the planner, and the non-commissioned officer is the executor of implementation. Officers will be transferred around, but non-commissioned officers will not. They are the ones who have the deepest grasp of the soldiers, of the troops. To use the analogy of a construction site, an officer is an engineer, a non-commissioned officer is a foreman, and a soldier is a worker.

If it is the previous model, the generals also start from the lower level and slowly climb to the top of the first army, then there is no need for non-commissioned officers, and the officers will grasp the state of the army. However, if military schools are used for officer education, then non-commissioned officers are very necessary.

If you want to establish a non-commissioned officer school, in terms of the military system of the Tang Dynasty, the squadron leader is probably a non-commissioned officer. In a modern army, there are about 30 people in each platoon, and the platoon commander is a second lieutenant. Each brigade of Datang is fifty people, and in the era of cold weapons, for the sake of formation, if there is a little more number, it is equivalent to a platoon in modern times.

He thought about it for a long time, the non-commissioned officer school was indeed quite necessary. With the situation that the soldiers of Datang are now standing on their own, it is inevitable that even the squadron leaders at the grassroots level must be mastered. Squad leader, you just need to dare to fight. The squadron leader, as well as the deputy head of the flag, will all enter the non-commissioned officer school in the future.

It is also necessary for them to learn various leadership and control techniques, as well as various tactics, after all, they are the first line and the executors of various tactics. Just training officers is not enough at the grassroots level, and no matter how good the tactics are, it is useless.

In addition to mastering the non-commissioned officers, it can weaken the situation that the Tang Dynasty often supported without authorization, and it can also be trained through these non-commissioned officers, so that the grassroots troops will not be weakened because they have been peaceful for too long and there is no war. In particular, the soldiers will continue to replenish and retire, and the non-commissioned officers are even more important. Iron can fight the camp, flowing water can get soldiers, and non-commissioned officers who do not move will not lose the spirit of an army because the soldiers have to be replaced.

At the moment, Li Chen recorded this, and this had to be discussed with Shi Xiong. Then he remembered another question, which was about the construction of a primary school and a secondary school.

Li Chen once had a wish to restore schools in various states and counties. At least to the Tianbao period, that was the peak of Datang school education. The Governor's Mansion has a government school, the state has a state school, and the county has a county school. Basically, it's already already been done. When he clarified the various tax systems, the taxes left enough financial resources for the local government to run schools.

In addition to Xingxue, he also made some changes. He remembered that in the early Ming Dynasty, there were actually various public schools, and after students graduated, they passed the examination and were conferred official positions. In the past, this school was still quite popular, after all, you can be an official.

This school system has one characteristic. Students can enter the local government for internship, on the one hand, to learn government affairs, in the future can quickly get started, on the other hand, but also to supplement the manpower gap, so it is widely praised by all parties, scholars like, the government is also welcome, once very popular, not lost to the imperial examination.

Why did it fall later, in the end, everyone only remembered the imperial examination, and he also forgot. However, it did not prevent him from implementing this system in the Tang Dynasty. Of course, how many people to recruit depends on local talent and financial resources, and if you have money, you can recruit more, after all, they are also busy with affairs, and if you don't have money, you can recruit less.

There is no resistance to this policy in all localities, and in any case, it would be good to have more people to do things. Li Chen also achieved his goal, to try to make school education replace the imperial examination, which is the goal that all dynasties have been striving for.

In addition, he also had a purpose, which was to clarify the rule of officials. These students, all of whom are relatively young, or have not been deeply involved in the world, let them enter a local government for internship. Young people are always unaccustomed to many things, especially those that violate conscience and the law.

They have not been too smoothed by society, and they are not used to many injustices. It is just right to curb all kinds of unhealthy trends in officialdom. Not to mention whether they will do this in the future, at least they can prevent it now.

Also, in view of some characteristics of the Tang Dynasty, he made some regulations for entering the officialdom after graduating from school. One is that he is an official in a different place. Locals can enter local schools or intern locally, but if they want to become a professional in the future, they must be in a different place, avoid forming a party with the township, and become a big local force.

Or the magistrate promotes the students, enters the officialdom, and controls the government of a certain place. Don't forget the Tang Dynasty feudal town system, if there is a temperance envoy to change the officialdom up and down, it is equivalent to covering the sky with one hand.

In addition to public school education, in recent years, with his imperial examination reform, the number of admissions has increased a lot every year, because whether it is an official or a former official, it has become a necessary examination. As a result, the rise of private schools has also increased a lot.

Regarding the school for the examination and becoming an official, Li Chen began to think about primary and secondary schools. In Li Chen's plan, it was not for the sake of cultivating bureaucrats. The main thing is to implement education and train talents for all walks of life, including various technical schools, a group of illiterate, unable to promote the development of technology, do not even know the words, and can only rely on experience to do anything.

Illiterate and unable to record, they can only rely on the teaching of masters and apprentices. If you can't read or write, you can't even read the manual, how to use a more complex machine? Just teach slowly by hand? If you are illiterate, you can only know all kinds of phenomena, but you can't use them because you can't even improve them.

In addition, all walks of life need to be literate, and a lot of literate manpower is needed. Like business, if you don't have enough literate manpower, you can't expand, can you imagine an illiterate person who can't even read the account books and master a store?

Therefore, Li Chen should try to popularize education, not to mention achieving universal literacy among the whole people, but also to increase the literate population as much as possible. Originally, Li Chen had money this year, so he could ask the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry to come forward and start building primary schools to promote new education.

It's just that Longxi has to be recovered, which accounts for a lot of funds. At present, Longxi urgently needs to resume production. The court wants to take the money out. Someone suggested that Zhang Yichao be appointed as the envoy of the Guiyi Army, and then allocate some money, and let Longxi find its own way to raise it in other aspects.

This method was refuted by Li Chen, if the local government is allowed to raise its own funds, what is the point of separating the military and civil affairs from the civil affairs, and in the end it is not to let the local government do its own thing, after all, you have not paid the money, just thinking about collecting money, since the local government has given you all the protection money, how can you still have the face to meddle in local affairs. It depends on the local government to develop after that, but the early development, especially in Longxi, is in ruins, and it is impossible for the imperial court to ignore it.

If you want to manage it, you will have to spend money, and if you spend it, the court will have no money. Cultivating wasteland, building water conservancy, and immigrating all cost money.

Li Chen didn't have much money, he wanted to expand the army and make weapons, but the imperial court couldn't come up with so much money, it was all subsidized by internal funds, so he didn't have much money to run a school.

Is it going to be put on hold? This is suitable sooner rather than later, besides, he knows who has money, so he recruited someone into the palace. Leave the affairs of running a local primary school to him. (To be continued.) )
