After Huang Xing left, Yang Xingguo sent someone to Qingdao secretly and invited the German Wilhelm to come to Liaozhong. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Arsenal technicians can solve the problem in China by poaching people.

However, with all kinds of equipment needed by the arsenal, I can only pin my hopes on foreign countries.

During the few days of waiting for William, Yang Xingguo was not idle.

It took two days to further improve the training manual of the Liaodong Army. Then he and Chief of Staff Sun Liechen nested in the headquarters every day to discuss the expansion and reorganization of the Liaodong Army.

The sudden addition of a main division in the army means that the whole army will have more than 100 officers at and above the company level.

In a hurry, Sun Liechen just wanted to break his head and didn't know where to change so many officers.

In the absence of any choice, Sun Liechen could only promote some company-platoon-level officers who had performed well on the battlefield to battalion and company-level officers. In this way, the formation of the four divisions can be considered complete.

However, what Yang Xingguo didn't understand was that Chief of Staff Sun Liechen's frowning brows did not mean to relax.

Before Yang Xingguo could ask, Sun Liechen frowned and said, "Commander, the establishment is finished, but the hidden dangers inside are too big......

"Not only the fourth division, but also other troops have a big hidden danger......"

"More than eighty percent of our officers at and above the company level have risen step by step from ordinary soldiers by virtue of their military merits. And this creates a problem, the culture of officers is generally very low, and even many battalion and regiment-level officers do not even know the words......"

"If you don't know how to read, then you don't have to talk about looking at the map. Such an officer, you let him command hundreds, or even thousands, of people to fight, how can you rest assured, there are no hidden dangers......"

"What about the teaching team? Didn't we set up a training corps dedicated to the training of officers? Yang Xingguo asked rhetorically with a frown.

Sun Liechen shook his head and replied: "The teaching team is all some low-level officers at the squad and platoon level, and the teaching team still pays attention to training, and we rarely touch on the command and culture of the troops, and we don't have the strength to cover. After all. The teaching team is educated, and there are very few officers from military schools. ”

At this time, Yang Xingguo directly retorted: "No, I don't even know the words." Middle-level officers who can't even read a map are absolutely not allowed to lead troops, and that is a joke with the lives of the soldiers. ”

Sun Liechen shook his head and retorted: "However, the army is expanding too quickly, except for those people. There is simply no one to replace them......"

"If you can't find it, you can train it yourself, if you can't read, we will teach them to read, if you can't read a map, we will teach them to read a map, and if you can't command the troops, we will teach them to command the troops." Yang Xingguo replied without thinking about it.

"We also have a lot of officers from military academies, as well as several officers who have studied abroad, and we can temporarily gather them and let them teach those officers who have no education......"

"That's it, our training already has its own routine, as long as there is no fighting, there are people in the troops watching the training. It didn't have any problem pumping them out......"

"In addition, Director Huang will go to Hubei in the next two days, and he will definitely be able to bring back a lot of scholars. I plan to set up night schools in the army, one for each battalion, to teach the soldiers culture. As long as you want, whether you are an ordinary soldier or an officer, you can take advantage of the fact that there is no training at night to study in night school......"

"As for officers at and above the company level, in addition to attending night school, they must also conduct a systematic officer training and pass the training. Go back and continue to be an officer, and even get promoted. If the training is not qualified, the use will be downgraded, and the training will continue. If you are unqualified, you will be demoted again, and you will be downgraded below the company level until you do not need to continue training! “

Sun Liechen was obviously shocked by Yang Xingguo's proposal, and subconsciously exclaimed: "Commander, you want to establish a martial arts hall......

"It's a meaning, but it's not called a martial arts hall......," Yang Xingguo affirmed with a serious face.

"The lecture martial arts hall is for the imperial court to train officers. Look at what the imperial army is like, I don't want to use this name. ”

"I plan to set up the Liaodong Military Academy, I will be the principal, and the chief of staff will be the chief of education......"

"Seven training courses have been established for the time being: the training course for divisional officers, the training course for regimental officers, the training course for battalion officers, the training course for company officers, the artillery training course, the engineer training course, and the staff training course...... When there are conditions in the future, we will have more talents in our hands, and then increase the ...... according to the actual situation."

"In the training of divisional officers, I am the teacher myself, and I attend two hours every night, and there are no classes during the day......"

"The regimental-level officer training is a full-day class, let Li Zhilong be a teacher, he has stayed in school, he is a division commander, and he will definitely be able to ......"

"There are two classes for battalion-level officer training, and I remember that among our dozen or so regiment commanders, two were born in military schools, and they were selected to be teachers."

"There are five squads for the training of company-level officers, and I believe that there should ......be no problem at all in finding five cadets from among the officers above the battalion level."

"Artillery training is taught by Zhang Shaozeng, and engineer training is taught by Commander Wang of the Engineer Battalion of the Headquarters, and the staff training is wronged by you, the chief of staff, as a teacher......"

"Of course, my arrangement is a temporary arrangement that has no way, and when we have qualified teachers in the future, the people I just arranged, including the two of us, are likely to follow as students......"

Sun Liechen didn't expect that in front of him, after thinking about the problem for several days, every time he found a solution, in front of the commander Yang Xingguo, it was solved in less than ten minutes, and it was arranged properly, and even the specific way to do it was clearly arranged.

Therefore, Sun Liechen was shocked again.

What Sun Liechen didn't expect was that the reason why Yang Xingguo was able to make this decision immediately was also to learn from the experience of more than ten years later.

In a dozen years, China will enter a chaotic phase of warlords.

At that time, officers of all stripes would face the same problems as themselves.

At that time, these warlords trained a large number of officers for themselves by running military academies, so as to achieve the purpose of expanding their army.

Now I do it myself, to put it in layman's terms, that is, to draw a scoop according to the gourd.

Of course, Sun Liechen didn't know what Yang Xingguo was thinking now.

It took a full minute for him to react from the shock that Yang Xingguo had brought him.

After thinking about it, he asked Yang Xingguo: "Commander, how long does this officer school last...... How many students are accepted at one time......"

"Three months of training at a time, the most basic military training is forgotten, and the main thing is to let everyone learn military culture. How to read a map, how to command troops to fight...... In addition, it is necessary to bring out some classic foreign battles in the past ten years and so for everyone to learn ......"

"Another problem is also simple, in order to ensure the stability of the troops, one-third of the officers of the same rank are selected to study at a time. For example, in the regiment, the regiment has a chief of staff, a deputy regimental commander, and a regimental commander. One person came over for training every time......"

"And the night school I just talked about, it's even simpler......"

"The General Staff, the Field Hospital, and other departments of the Headquarters, hundreds of cultural people can still find out......

"Tell them that they are willing to spend two hours every night to teach the soldiers, and the headquarters will compensate them for overtime pay of five taels of silver every month. Although the silver is not much, it is a little bit of the command's heart......"

"When the time comes, there should be no problem with two teachers in one main battalion......"

"In addition, we also want to tell our soldiers, whether officers or ordinary soldiers, as long as they can read enough 1,000 words, they will add one tael of silver to their salaries every month......"

"Since I want to do it, then I will build the Liaodong Army into a literate army......" (To be continued.) )
