Chapter 207: Educational Affairs and the Emerging Exploration Department

Zhuo Erling is not a little girl, and her emotions will not multiply indefinitely, so even if this conversation with Cui Wenli did not really solve her in fact, Zhuo Erling also made herself strong and settled down, and after bidding farewell to the old captain, she began to draft an application for the convening of the provisional calculation meeting.

"But... What the hell is Cui Wenli here for?"

"What am I here for..."

Outside the office building, Cui Wenli herself was thinking about this problem, she patted her head in annoyance, and found that she had forgotten to do business.

"I would also like to refer to how the Department of External Exploration carries out its work.... Forget it, let's talk about it next time~ Although it is all "reconnaissance" in disguise, the nature of the military and government departments is different after all, and maybe it will go astray if you refer to it."

I don't know if it was self-comforting or if she really thought so, Cui Wenli didn't turn around to disturb her old partner who had already started work, but walked straight to the camp outside the city.

There, she and a group of newly promoted non-commissioned officers were working day and night to study the tactics of the new troops, the arrangement of grassroots formations, and other affairs;

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and the army's requirements for the intelligence suppression corps are very high, so their current daily life can be called exhaustive.

~~~

It didn't take long for the application of the Provisional Calculation Society, led by Drow Ling, to be submitted to the Rune Council, and it was approved;

Soon after, consultations between the House of Representatives and the ruling government on this issue were held under the auspices of representatives of the Parliament.

"Abolish the Protectorate's right to monitor the budget", this proposal like smashing a wall was naturally rejected first;

For this reason, the ministers of the ruling government who attended the meeting were also scolded by several representatives of the Protectorate, saying that they wanted to subvert the rights and interests that the people had won with great difficulty through struggle.

The proposal to smash windows and "control of the lake with extra-budgetary funds" was also rejected;

Now that the work of education has been unswerving for nearly sixty years, the people of the Republic are not at all stupid enough to be deceived by such an obviously foolish proposal.

However, perhaps because the "smashing the wall and smashing the window and then opening the door effect" has been verified, or perhaps it is true that what it said is justified, the "Mohu Budget" proposed by the ruling government was understood by the Senate and then officially entered into force with the approval of the Rune Council.

Since then, in addition to the funding arrangements that can be clarified in advance, the ruling government will also set aside an additional part of the "Mohu Budget" to be used for additional expenditures in that budget year.

Although this money can be withdrawn without convening a temporary calculation meeting, its whereabouts, uses, and actual effects need to be kept on file in detail for the Protectorate to monitor afterwards.

If something is found to be wrong, the House of Protectors will immediately initiate the impeachment of the officials involved and seek the intervention of the Rune Council.

Leaving aside the future matters, Zhuo Erling is quite satisfied at the moment, although it is not cash, although it is not directly distributed to the department, but the "First Bank" that has carried out simple deposit and withdrawal business is pre-existed, and the transfer still needs to be approved by the Council of Ministers.

But what can be solved within the ruling government is better to go over and fight with the trolls of the Conservative Yuan, isn't it?

However, when there is no money, it is okay, and with a large amount of unplanned allocable funds, it is as if the various departments in the ruling government have been turned on a switch, and suddenly there are many more plans that Zhuo Ling has never heard of.

The Ministry of Railways said that it would establish branch tracks between the various stations, the Ministry of Civil Affairs said that the basic living security funds of the people should be raised, and the Ministry of Education said that the literacy schools in the various stations should be renovated....

Even the representative of the bank, who is only responsible for keeping the funds, said that the money could be doubled in the north, and asked the Ministry of Finance to consider whether to use it for lending and interest.... Then of course, he was scolded.

Zhuo Erling was dumbfounded all of a sudden, didn't I apply for this money? Shouldn't it be prioritized for the expansion of the Department of External Exploration? She thinks so ....

"How did you get that? It is clearly written on the document that this is "an additional allocable budget shared by the executive government."

It's the result of all of us working together.... Drowling, you're not going to use them all, are you?"

"You guys! You guys!

"Clanging Clanging", "Jingle Clanging"....

For some reason, there was a sudden commotion in the conference room, and the trolls who were working in the entire building pricked up their ears in confusion at this time......

~~~~

At the end of the meeting, a consensus was finally reached among the ministers....

First of all, this money is not a lot, and it is absolutely impossible to use it in a single department;

Secondly, everyone had the idea of "getting the money first", and the plans that were set up by surprise were either completely rejected or sent back for careful polishing;

Finally, this expenditure must be converted into "formal projects that require continuous investment" that can become "full-budgeted" in the next budget year, thereby increasing the size of the budget pool for the coming year.

Therefore, after heated discussions, the ministers unanimously launched a long-term project that can jointly "benefit" - the "Executive Government Talent Development Programme".

To explain this plan, it is necessary to understand the arrangements for educational affairs in the Republic at this stage.

At this stage, education affairs are basically divided into two modules: "central" and "local".

In the central government, there were already schools for school-age trolls in the early days;

Over the decades, the school has become a one-stop training base for pre-school, primary, secondary and tertiary education, covering everything from juveniles to sub-adult trolls.

[In view of the general environment,

Since the establishment of the Republic, the base has been officially known as the "First Central School of the Republic", and the administration of the school is under the supervision of the Ministry of Education of the executive government, and the educational content is directly reported to the Education Committee of the Rune Council.

It can be said that every little troll has to stay in this school for about 20 years from the time they are weaned, until they officially graduate from sub-adulthood.

Since the civilization of the tribe, all kinds of subjects such as mathematics, Chinese, physics, biology, physical exercise, meditation education, etc., which have been summarized by witch doctors and witch medicine disciples, will always accompany the little ones in the past 20 years.

Nesta, who is also the "dean", thinks that trolls and even future elves have a long lifespan anyway, and instead of letting them develop the "immortal vice" like this, because of their long life span, they spend their time doing nothing, it is better to let them get used to learning, learning, and learning again from an early age.

Even when you grow up, you should deeply understand the preciousness of time, and continue the "short-lived time concept" that you have cultivated since childhood, so as not to waste time outside the normal range.

All in all, Nesta can't stand the terrible situation of spending hours, if not days, in a daze...

Therefore, when planning the education plan of the central government at this stage, he basically designed it according to the time habits of the "short-lived species" in his previous life.

In addition to the main class, the morning class and evening self-study are arranged for them.... No, maybe there is one aspect where he didn't refer to his past life, which is physical education.

Little trolls, including future elf kids, will also be involved in sports at the school level. Or rather, the "combat class" is taken seriously;

In addition to ensuring the necessary physical exercises to cope with growth every day, there are also various individual and group combat skills, which should be arranged in accordance with the various stages of physical growth.

In addition, the cultivation of scientific thinking and experimental thinking is also essential;

To this end, the school will cooperate with the various research laboratories set up by the apprentices for a long time in terms of teachers and venues, so that the little ones will not only care about fighting and memorizing textbooks all day long, but also try to observe and practice from easy to difficult.

In addition, if we consider the lifespan of human beings in previous lives, we will count them as 100 years

Count, then it will take 17 years from preschool to college graduation, right?

Even if you skip the doctoral stage of "research and study", only add the time of master's education..... That's about 19 or 20 years to get an education, which is equivalent to one-fifth of the entire span of a human life.

And what about trolls?

Even if for the sake of convenience, the average life expectancy is only recorded according to the 300 years of Black Forest time, so it is not too much to take 60 years of full-time education from it, right?

And after that?

The work that needs to be done every day, at least at the present stage, is actually a little bit, and there are forty-eight lamps available a day, and it is not too much to spare six or seven lamps for amateur training classes after production, right?

So, compared to the average lifespan of a troll, it's only about 20 years of schooling, and Nesta thinks it's too merciful.

With the increase in the accumulation of knowledge in the future Republic, the number of years of education will definitely have to be improved;

Seriously, it would take 60 years to spend 60 years on full-time education, but it would not be wrong to improve it as much as possible while meeting the needs of society for labor, and use the rest for "part-time training".

Therefore, in the later period of the Horde, after truly understanding the situation in the north, the Republic set up separate "specialized training schools" for trolls in the prime of life, with the purpose of forcibly arranging idle trolls to enter them to carry out special studies in addition to literacy education, will gradually shoulder the task of "amateur training centers" in the future of the Nesta Project;

This kind of school will be scattered in the center and various places, so that the spare time life of trolls and elves will become more fulfilling and "colorful".

It is against this backdrop that the "Training Scheme" initiated by the ruling government was established.

At the central government, they will cooperate with the "First Central School of the Republic" to establish a "political science education" for young trolls at the higher education level in the school.

Interested trolls will be able to choose one or two of the major items such as finance, civil affairs, animal husbandry, road administration, etc.

Then, when they graduate in sub-adulthood, they are recruited into the government as "interns", and when they reach the prime of life, they are admitted to the government as regular employees on a merit-based basis.

Those who are not interested should at least choose one or two of the various sub-courses, such as special documents, finance, statements, practical affairs, etc., to understand and study, at least so that the Republic can have trolls available when needed in the future.

At the local level, we have cooperated with the "specialized training schools" in each of the localities and entrusted them with training staff who can adapt to the various grassroots work of the ruling government.

However, because both the cooperation with the central school and the cooperation with the local school are new projects that will be launched in the near future, it will take a long time to see the concrete results.

At this stage, the ruling government, especially the Ministry of External Exploration, which is in urgent need of expansion, has to be screened by the private sector if it wants to gain usable power.

And because the new generation of trolls who have received a complete education are now almost a carrot and a pit, there are a large number of teaching, military, political, and even research positions, which need to be carried out with them as the backbone.

Therefore, in this situation where the people are basically only old-school trolls (most of the population are of this type), the expansion of the External Exploration Division is only possible by relying on their own training from scratch, in addition to a limited number of digging into the wall.

Thankfully, most old-school trolls have gone through a forced literacy phase under Nesta's orders, so the training mission doesn't have to start with literacy before it becomes a hellish one.

And in terms of money, the ruling government did not embarrass Zhuo Erling;

In addition to the funds required for the above plan, Zhuo Erling also obtained the signed document of the Joint Council of Ministers and successfully obtained the first money from the First Bank.

If you have money, everything will be fine, organize publicity, assign cadres to various stations for interviews, and then select qualified people to bring to the headquarters for training;

Although it is time-consuming, although it is very energy-consuming, but in this department

In the follow-up progress of the column, watching the backbone of the subordinate divisions gradually take shape, Zhuo Erling is full of a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Soon, the skeletons of the four exploration divisions, namely the "Eastern Exploration Division", the "Northern Exploration Division", the "South...", and the "West....", as well as the framework of the semi-logistics and semi-technical departments such as the "Intelligence and Analysis Division" and the "Internal Communications Division", were built one after another with the joint efforts of old employees and new recruits.

Newly recruited interns, such as investigators, messengers, intelligence analysts, and other interns with different levels of difficulty and job requirements, were also trained under the personal guidance of members of the former Far Voyager Unit.

In addition, the functional design and collocation of targeted totems should also be planned during this period;

Among them, the part that can be realized with the existing totem can be negotiated with the apprentices who have mastered the technology, so as to complete the inscription of the employee.

The part of the functional requirements that cannot be achieved by the existing totems should be handed over to the Rune Council for discretion after listing a detailed application plan.

If, in the opinion of the council, the function she proposes can be achieved through innovation, the witch doctor will be assigned the task of satisfying the totemic needs of the department;

If the council thinks that her proposal is too outrageous to do what it needs to do with its existing knowledge of magic, it will push it back and ask Drow to re-plan it based on reality.

For example, the first plan proposed by Zhuo Erling was rejected by the parliament because the plan was too whimsical....

At that time, considering that the exploration of the north needed to face, almost all of them were completely different races and races, with different appearances, language barriers, and huge body shapes;

In order to carry out the investigation work more smoothly and obtain detailed first-hand information, Zhuo Erling put forward the totemic function requirements of "eliminating language barriers", "changing the appearance of investigators", and "realizing ultra-long-range communication of individual soldiers".

Among them, except for the second item, she did not have much hope when she reported it, but the first and third items were expected.

First, "bridging the language barrier" is not without examples, at least the cave wolves can do it;

She thought at the time that maybe the witch doctors could find a way to dissect its brain, so as to obtain the original template for this type of spell, and then by turning one to a symbol culture and two to a totem, wouldn't that be a usable totem?

But in the end, it was rejected by the council, and until at least three replacements were obtained, the importance of the Cave Wolves to the tribe was self-evident.

Leave its brain behind and take the magic crystal? Not to mention whether it can be done, and even if it could, it would be impossible for the Council to risk losing the Cave Wolves to take this step.

As for the second item, "to achieve ultra-long-range communication for individual soldiers", Zhuo Erling actually knows that both ultrasonic and infrasound bands actually have their own transmission limits;

In other words, as long as the Republic is still using "sound waves" as a carrier for communication, it is basically impossible to raise this distance to an outrageous level.

But with the idea of "what if", she still reported this demand, and then was called over and scolded as a matter of course, saying that she had received a complete education, why did she make such a request that she knew was impossible to waste everyone's precious time.....

The third item, "Changing the Appearance of the Scout", is due to the fact that in nature, at least to the extent known, the witch doctors have never come into contact with a magical beast with this ability;

Therefore, in the absence of the original template of its quasi-spell stage, there is naturally no way to magicize, let alone go further totemization.

The "Druyin Transfiguration" unique to advanced witch doctors is perhaps the closest to this requirement at this stage;

However, due to the process of its transformation, the transformation from "biology" to "rune" has not been completed, and it can even be said that there is no progress, so the principle of its transformation has not been explored, and naturally the corresponding totemic transformation cannot be realized.

Since all three of these were returned, Zhuo Erling began to think about new plans;

Of course, she didn't do this alone, many of them were brought in from the Far Wanderer troops

's subordinates are also putting forward various ideas based on their own practical experience.

One by one, the options are proposed and listed as waiting options, and there are only three available totem slots, and they must find the best of the best to find the best solution to maximize the utilization.

~~~~

"Minister, I have a general idea... Or the idea."

"Tell me about it?" His train of thought was interrupted by his subordinates, so Zhuo Erling put down his pen for a while and looked up to ask.

"You see, the divisions in our existing plan can actually be divided into three categories, analysis, communication, and field investigation."

"Needless to say, the analysis class is there, and you probably only need to stay at the back, or even the headquarters, as long as you have a good brain, so we haven't thought about designing any special totems, right?"

"That's right, keep talking..."

"And this "telecommunication class", I don't think it's actually necessary to be too radical to engage in "ultra-long-range" and "dedicated line"..."

"Oh? So what?"

"That's right, for example, for the information support of the Northern Exploration Division, we can actually solve it by designing a segmented communication plan."

"For example, the segment is divided into three parts: "remote", "relay", and "terminus".....

"The 'remote' part of this is the most dispersed and can only be personally handled by front-line scouts in each direction."

"In the "relay" part, the scattering distribution can be adopted in the front and back, and by developing the application range of the existing sonic technology to the extreme, as far as possible, the semi-permanent secret relay station can only be arranged at the most critical "far end" point that can take into account multiple directions at the same time."

"According to this arrangement, as long as the distance between the upward relay stations is calculated and the off-peak transmission time in each direction is planned, the number of expatriate dispatches we need should be reduced to a low point."

"Basically, the closer you get to the inner ring, the lower the number of relay points you need to be because of the first tightening along the line.....

"Moreover, after entering the signal capture range of the Northern Fortress, we don't actually need to shoulder the communication task ourselves at all, we can borrow the existing channels of the Ministry of Communications."

"After setting up our own internal password rules, even if the big mouths of the Ministry of Communications spread our original signals everywhere, as long as the witch doctors didn't have to crack it, there would be no leaks."

"Of course, it would be better if we could work with the Ministry of Communications to set up secrecy rules, or have the Rune Council issue secrecy rules to prevent the original signal records from leaking.

"For the time being, our own Communications Division is only responsible for this part of the trunk from the remote end to the periphery.....

Listening to this, Zhuo Ling fell into a moment of contemplation, if there is no great improvement in communication in the short term, then it seems that this is the best solution.

"Okay... The Communications Department will prepare according to what you said, and I will apply to the council for secrecy rules, do you have any ideas? Like the scouts?"

This subordinate seems to be quite smart, and Zhuo Erling can't help but bring a little expectation.

"Uh... I don't have a specific plan, but it's a bit of a simple idea."

"Okay, you can tell me."

"Understood!"

The troll involuntarily responded in the manner of the army, but as soon as his arms were raised to his chest, he realized that he had left the army.

He smiled and scratched his head slightly in embarrassment, before continuing with the minister's encouraging look,

"I've read the information from the hornhoof, the situation in the north is indeed quite complicated, and it would be best if the two totems you mentioned could be realized..."

"But now that we can't do it, should we settle for the next best thing and design according to the realistic needs of each direction?"

"If you can't get in, then go for a more powerful stealth effect; If you don't understand the language, then shift your energy to the observation of the entity for the time being."

"For example, the known Triangular, from the intelligence, they have nothing but basic vision

In addition, there are other keen senses.... The Lai Yin species are known for their night vision, the Mengqi species have excellent hearing, and the fanged species have a keen sense of smell."

"In addition to the three of them, there are also some other ones that are sensitive to vibrations, can "see" the heat source, etc., so in addition to the usual optical stealth, the protection of these special senses should also be taken into account in the scope of our needs."

"And according to the actual situation in each direction, we can make a more detailed classification of investigators.... For example, if you specialize in the direction of coming to Yin, you should focus on arranging totems for night vision."

"Of course, in this way, unless the totem is changed under the rule of the republic, the direction of the investigator's responsibility will be determined in the short term."

"But death also has the advantage of death, at least it can allow scouts in all directions to have a richer understanding of their investigation targets, more accurate information transmitted, and even the possibility of gradually learning the local language."

~~~~~

Soon after, the Rune Council received Drow's totemic demand plan again, and after a cursory look at it, the Council decided that this time the plan was much more mature, so it quickly passed it.

Among the new totem requirements, some councils do not have mature technical reserves, but because these abilities are basically common needs in nature, some Warcraft have indeed evolved targeted spell-like abilities.

As a result, most of the republic's Magic Crystal Reserves can be found with ready-made spell-like templates;

Some of these can be applied directly after the secondary conversion;

On the other hand, because there is still some deviation between the physical object and the actual demand, the witch doctors need to change some of the runes when they carry out the rune culture, so as to convert them into spells that meet the needs first, and then do totemic transformation.

But in general, it wasn't too much trouble, and it didn't take long for a few witch doctors to take over and solve the problem, and passed on the corresponding inscription techniques to some of the apprentices who learned quickly.

After that, the apprentices who have already learned are arranged to portray the investigators, so that they have more time to understand and practice the application of the corresponding totems.

Under such a tone, in the future, you will need to face investigators in different directions, and the totems obtained will naturally be different.

For example, in addition to the indispensable teleportation totem and the Windranger totem used to escape, a special totem that can be optically invisible during the day and enhance the stealth effect at night has also been specially transformed.

For these investigators, the Ministry of External Exploration does not require them to be able to go deep into the settlements of various ethnic groups to carry out investigations in the short term;

At this stage, as long as they can protect themselves on the outskirts of the city and in the countryside, and at the same time transmit back the information they have seen with their own eyes, the ministry is already very satisfied.

Under this requirement, the training of investigators began to gradually enter the middle and late stages, and the day when the divisions could set off for field reconnaissance in the north was getting closer and closer.

In addition, the apprentices who were responsible for the totem carving, at this time, after completing the much-needed carving work, also began to teach the rest of the apprentices....

The Republic intends to enable more apprentices to master the carving techniques of these new totems through the model of advanced and backward, and further model and teach them, in order to carry out more systematic "totem inscription" education in schools.

The purpose of this is to find more professional "talents" capable of performing "totem inscription surgery" in times of war, so as to cope with the possible demand for large-scale inscription totems and frequent totem changes.
