After dinner, Zhou Changfeng and Xia Xiaoshi took a short walk and then separated.

Although people who are outside the matter may not be able to understand it, after this period of life, Zhou Changfeng can already deeply feel the magic situation in all aspects of the Ming Dynasty.

Say that the current Ming is open, right? No, there is no shortage of conservatives; Say conservative, right? Not really, because in many ways it's very open.

In this Ming Dynasty, where there are a lot of remnants of feudal colors and have to develop for decades in accordance with the times, it can be said that any magical situation can happen.

There are two sources of power in a dualist constitutional monarchy – the first is the hereditary monarch, behind which is the royal power; The second is the parliament elected by the people, behind which the people are behind it, or the forces that can manipulate the people.

Obviously, these two sources of power cannot get along, and they will inevitably slide into one of them eventually. For example, although the German Empire had a parliament, it put aside the parliament early, and the Kaiser was basically the sole ruler of the Kaiser.

When the Qing Dynasty was preparing for the constitution, they were also preparing to engage in a dualistic monarchy constitution, but they did not recognize the form - since the southeast mutual protection, the Qing court has been in turmoil, its power has declined, and as a result, it is naïve to create a "royal cabinet", which can be described as death.

Of course, even if the Qing Dynasty was prepared to make a compromise on constitutional knowledge and current affairs, the Qing Dynasty, which successfully established the constitution, would also change from a "real monarchy constitution" to a "hypothetical monarch constitution" in a short period of time, after all, the power of the imperial family and the imperial court at that time was far less than that of the local forces.

However, the situation of the Later Ming Dynasty is very different, as in the Tianqi and Chongzhen periods, even at the end of the period, the Later Ming court still has a certain prestige and power.

In this way, the forces were barely balanced, and the current situation was only possible after mutual compromise.

Under the dualist constitutional system, vigorous development and construction will naturally enhance local power, so that the influence of the parliament will become greater, if left unchecked, the imperial power will decline, then sooner or later the emperor will withdraw from the center of power and transform into a "virtual monarchy constitution".

It may even go one step further and go straight into the republic.

In addition to the usual power tactics such as pulling one faction and fighting another faction, vigorously strengthening the army has become one of the important means.

After all, what age is this, and it is impossible to rely on the power of eunuchs to help.

In this way, it can be seen that the dualist monarchy is quite unstable, and the two major forces will work hard to expand their influence, and there will be endless infighting.

But in a sense, this is not all bad, after all, this is not the classical era, so the ambition of the Ming faction at the national level is reflected in the rapid development!

Local forces and bureaucratic capital are constantly investing, building, and expanding, and are in the ascendant; The army is also growing and developing in full swing.

However, the appearance of this rapid development has covered up countless ills and irreconcilable contradictions that have not been eliminated in the Ming Dynasty, and they will not disappear naturally, but will explode sooner or later.

"It's the eve of the Great War... Hey, let's go back to the light, even if death is inevitable, but if we can win this war, it can be called the last glory of the empire. Zhou Changfeng sighed.

Well, that's a good place to be.

Until then, you have to be prepared to climb as high as you can.

Not to mention being able to control one side or command the three armies, at least it must be the commander of a corps, so as to escort the smooth transformation of the Ming Dynasty at the moment of change, so as not to be stolen by traitors.

A few days passed in a flash, and after the initial theoretical study, the first test was organized.

Although it is called an exam, it is actually like a quiz for admission, but... You need to write an entire essay of at least 3,000 words.

“…… It can be written, and at the latest it is no more than two o'clock in the unitary hour, and you can refer to books and literature. Let's go. ”

Yang Zhen, the secretary of the Admiral's Office of the Oriental Fleet, who was in charge of the workshop, personally came today to assign the topics, and the topics of the captains were slightly different from those of the majors and lieutenant colonels, and the former was more "smaller."

In fact, Yang Zhen arranged a "saying", which was an argumentative style in ancient times, usually expressing opinions on things and phenomena, and the writing style and writing were relatively free, and the length was not long, similar to an essay.

"Isn't that just for us to blow water? Whatever you want, you can write it. ”

For this kind of article with no limitations and a high degree of freedom, Zhou Changfeng didn't take it to heart, and started writing without thinking about it.

「…… When carrying out landing combat missions, the Marine Corps can use them in a centralized manner or in a decentralized manner.

Centralized use is to put into the Marine Corps in a structured manner, and this is divided into four forms: one is to complete a certain task independently by the Marine Corps; the second is as the first echelon of landing; the third is to undertake the landing task in a certain direction alone; Fourth, it is jointly responsible for landing tasks in a certain direction with the army.

Decentralized use means to break up the formation of the Marine Corps, divide it into detachments at the company and battalion levels, and temporarily strengthen it to the Army. In this case, the Marine Corps usually serves as the advance assault force of the landing force, and is used to capture landing sites, surprise attacks on important targets, destroy enemy communication lines, remove beachhead obstacles, and so on.

When carrying out a landing mission, if there are amphibious armored units to cooperate with the operation, the combat efficiency and the ability to attack fortifications can be greatly improved, so it is necessary to give priority to the subordinate ......

Looking at Zhou Changfeng, who wrote a full page of paper with a pen like flying and a cup of tea, Yan Chenwu next to him was slightly shocked in his heart, and looked at himself again, but he had just written half a page.

No way? Is this man so violent?

Yan Chenwu thought back to Zhou Changfeng's performance in class these days - careless, with a disapproving look.

A guy from the army didn't see how serious he was in class, but now he writes like a god? Don't even open the book next to the table?

This... Doesn't seem reasonable, does it? I'm afraid he's scribbling as he wants?

Yan Chenwu exhaled lightly and decided not to be disturbed by him and concentrate on writing his own.

In this realm, time seems to pass extraordinarily fast.

Just over an hour and a half, Zhou Changfeng, who was dizzy from writing, put down his pen, shook his sore right hand, browsed his handy work, and then handed it in.

Yang Zhen, who was drinking tea and looking at the newspaper, was also surprised, he raised his hand and glanced at the time, and he finished writing it halfway through the time, could it be perfunctory?

"That's it?"

"Yes." Zhou Changfeng replied very simply.

Of course, Yang Zhen knows his details, and he doesn't think he is the kind of showmanship that is touted, after all, the showmanship can't play a real record.

Therefore, he only felt that Zhou Changfeng was a little flustered, and he didn't take this Marine Corps training class seriously. Sure enough, young people are easy to be impetuous.

After putting down the teacup, Yang Zhen took the pieces of paper and glanced at them quickly.

Communication coordination with naval units, the order and steps of force projection, the infiltration and marking of special operations detachments, and the shielding of the two wings of the smoke curtain?

After a quick flip through it, even if he hadn't looked closely, Yang Zhen realized that his idea just now was very wrong - hey, there is something, this kid is really not obvious.
