Chapter 302: Military Academy

A few days later, Liu Yan came to the Qingzhou Fucheng Military Camp, the Qinglai Town Military Academy and the Qinglai Town Yanwu Hall had been selected, and Tian Huixu was recruiting craftsmen and people to build them as soon as possible. These two military academies are in the north of the city, adjacent to two intersections, very close.

However, before the completion of the Qinglai Town Military Academy and the site of the Qinglai Town Yanwutang, the "plastic talents" drawn from each battalion have been assembled in the barracks, and the first batch of freshmen of the Qinglai Town Military Academy began their study careers in this temporary school.

Although the combat power of the new army in Qinglai Town is already very strong, the generals of each battalion have basically grown up in actual combat, and almost no one has gone through systematic study, so this is not a long-term solution. In the entrepreneurial period, you can use the grass platform team to support the scene, but when it comes to development and growth, you must use professionals.

At present, a complete set of new school systems has been established in all parts of Qinglai Town, and the school-age people from all over the country can enroll in the new schools in various prefectures and counties, and take the entrance examination step by step, so that after graduation, they can obtain a livelihood in various industries in Qinglai Town according to their personal learning situation.

Moreover, in addition to the ordinary schools that taught literacy, the Four Books and the Five Classics, Liu Yan ordered the addition of some specialized schools, such as mining schools, commercial schools, agricultural schools, etc., and deliberately recruited skilled craftsmen from various industries to act as gentlemen.

As for the military academy, Liu Yan attached more importance to it, and personally compiled the textbooks of the two military academies, starting from the arrangement of troops, the composition of troops, the training of new recruits, the building of military equipment, and so on, and so on, and even Liu Yan even summoned the commanders of all battalions to sort out the battles that the new army had experienced in the past, and as examples, he continued to analyze the successes and failures in the military academy, and summed up the lessons and lessons.

Liu Yan believes that the knowledge taught in the military academy should be based on the experience of the new army in Qinglai Town, which has always been fighting, and these experiences are all exchanged for the blood of the soldiers of the new army in Qinglai Town, so they should not be spread out arbitrarily, and can only be taught to the generals of the new army.

In addition, in order to improve the cultural level of the officers and men of the new army, Liu Yan stipulated that the soldiers who studied at the Qinglai Town Military Academy and the Qinglai Town Yanwutang must pass the graduation examination, otherwise no matter how great their military achievements are in the future, as long as they do not have the graduation certificates of these two military schools, they will not be promoted!

If the officers and men of the new army want to graduate, they must have a certain level of education, be able to read and write, be able to write and write, be able to write articles, and read a certain number of books. Liu Yan is sure that every new army soldier who graduated from the Qinglai Town Military Academy and the Qinglai Town Yanwutang will have the level of at least being a prisoner.

Of course, if you compare the four books and five classics, the new army officers and men who graduated are definitely inferior to the prison students, but in terms of vision and knowledge, they are far above the prison students.

At the same time, Liu Yan also stipulated that the generals of each battalion should be inspected by the instructors of the Qinglai Town Military Academy and the Qinglai Town Yanwutang, and check the literacy rate of the officers and men of each battalion at any time.

Liu Yan wants to comprehensively improve the knowledge level of the soldiers through this move, only in this way can the soldiers better understand what they are fighting for, which is also the difference between the modern army and the feudal army.

Liu Yan inspected the first batch of cadets of the military academy in the barracks, and gave a speech at the opening of the school in public, calling on everyone to study hard, seize the great opportunity to study in the military academy, and not waste their lives.

More than 370 soldiers of the first batch of trainees were enthusiastic, raising their arms and cheering after Liu Yan's impassioned speech, and some even shouted long live.

However, Xu Ming, Miao Shao, Qian Qiao and others who accompanied them did not understand why the martial artists still wanted to enter the military academy to study, as long as they could read and read, what else could they learn?

None of the generals had gone to military school before, so didn't they defeat the army of slaves and thieves several times? Didn't it also bring the new army of Qinglai Town into the first strong army of the Ming Dynasty?

After inspecting the first batch of trainees, Liu Yan and a few people returned to the official office, and Qian Yan was the first to ask.

Liu Yan believes that now the martial artists of the Ming Dynasty have begun to become complete martial artists, and their research on the art of war and martial arts is far from comparable to that of the Han and Tang military generals.

I think that back then, the military generals of the Han and Tang dynasties were all civil and military, and when they came out, they commanded 100,000 troops to cross the desert and conquer the world.

It is precisely in this way that the Han and Tang Dynasties can become the pinnacle of China and the palace in the hearts of all the descendants of Yan and Huang!

Therefore, Liu Yan wanted to use his own efforts to at least train the generals of the new army in Qinglai Town into all-rounders like the military generals of the Han and Tang dynasties.

Even if it can't be like the generals of the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is at least far stronger than the generals of the rest of the towns in the Ming Dynasty.

Xu Ming, Miao Shao, Qian Jian and others listened to Liu Yan's words, and they understood Liu Yan's intentions, no matter how much they were unwilling in their hearts, they all patiently acted according to the rules and did their best to do their own affairs.

However, a few days later, Tian Huixu, who was in charge of the preparatory affairs for the establishment of the military academy, rushed to the General Military Office to report the matter, and after meeting with Liu Yan, Tian Huixu reported some of the information collected by the Intelligence Department recently.

After the two finished discussing, Liu Yan asked; "What do the officers and men of the battalions think about the establishment of military schools now?"

Tian Huixu said: "Most of the generals in the army still have reservations about this matter, but all the officers and men can follow the orders of the general town, the first batch of soldiers assembled can also start studying with peace of mind, and the commanders of each battalion have also begun to look for candidates for the second phase of admission." ”

"So, there are still people in the battalions who agree with the establishment of military schools?"

Tian Huixu nodded and said, "There are quite a few people, but most of them are grassroots generals of various battalions. ”

"That's ......"

Speaking of this, Liu Yan had another idea, that is, he was going to set up comfort officers in the battalions of the new army in Qinglai Town, following the political ~ committee settings of the people ~ people ~ army in later generations.

Liu Yan planned to set up consolation officers at the general level of each battalion to specifically counsel the psychology of the officers and men of each battalion, and to boost the morale of all the officers and men in battle, just like the political ~ commissar of later generations.

As soon as this idea was formed, Liu Yan was ready to start implementing it immediately, after all, the reason why the strong army in later generations was able to recruit it to fight and win the battle, although there were many factors in all aspects, but the role of the political ~ commissar was also very huge.

The addition of consolation officers in the new army of Qinglai Town will definitely make the new army of Qinglai Town like a tiger.

So, Liu Yan said to Tian Huixu: "This town has an idea, that is, to gather all the grassroots generals in each battalion who agree to establish a military academy, gather them in the general military mansion, and the town will personally train these grassroots generals. ”m.

Tian Huixu asked suspiciously: "What does Zongzhen mean by this?" ”

"This town is preparing to add the post of consolation officer in each battalion army!"

"Comfort officer?"

Looking at Tian Huixu's puzzled expression, Liu Yan explained the duties and functions of this comfort officer.

Tian Huixu was also very curious after listening to it, and said: "This comfort officer is really ingenious, if it is successfully established, it can really play a role in motivating the soldiers, and it can also stabilize the morale of the army!" ”

"Exactly!"

A few days later, the Central Department issued a document, and the military department issued an order to transfer hundreds of grassroots generals from the battalions of the new army in Qinglai Town, and it took only ten days for these hundreds of grassroots generals to gather in Qingzhou Prefecture.

Liu Yan also met with these soldiers at the General Military Mansion of Qinglai Town.

"This town has selected you because there is a great achievement to entrust to you!"

Liu Yan looked at everyone's excited expressions and said loudly: "From today on, you will be trained in the big camp in the city, and your original official positions will be removed, and this training will be personally taken care of by this town." ”

"At the end of the month-long training, you will be sent to each battalion in the army to fill a new official position, which is the newly created consolation officer in the army!"

Then, Liu Yan announced the duties of the consolation officer.

After listening to this, the officers and men also understood that the official position of this consolation officer was better than that of the picket officer under Xun Jingyun, who was specifically responsible for stabilizing the morale of the army and boosting morale.

After the hundreds of generals dispersed, Liu Yan was also ready to cuddle the grass and beat the rabbits, and while cultivating the comfort officers, he also shaped the spiritual level of these generals who participated in the training, so that everyone could know what the new army of Qinglai Town was fighting for.

Although the training is only a short period of one month, Liu Yan plans to regularly conduct rotational training for the comfort officers of each battalion in the army in the future to continuously improve the quality of the comfort officers, which will be a continuous plan.

A month later, the first batch of 98 consolation officers carefully trained by Liu Yan successfully graduated, and then they were assigned by the military department to the battalions of the new army in Qinglai Town, and began to exercise the functions and powers of consolation officers.

Of course, compared to the more than 80,000 soldiers of the new army in Qinglai Town, the 98 consolation officers in this district are still too few, and they can only set up one consolation officer for each one.

Therefore, Liu Yan also gave everyone another task, that is, to find and cultivate "seeds" that can become comforting officers in the army.

Liu Yan is ready to start the selection and training of the second batch of comfort officers after a period of precipitation, and finally let the comfort officers in the new army in Qinglai Town reach one person per banner, or even one person per team!

At the beginning of October, Liu Yan saw that the preparations for the construction of new-style schools and military schools had been fully rolled out, and the enrollment and teaching work was also in full swing, so he began to fully implement the new policies in Qingzhou and Laizhou Mansions.

Liu Yan ordered: All the generals in Qinglai Town must disband their families; The local health centers immediately began to eliminate the old and weak, and recruited young and strong military households to fill the vacancies; The local health posts should re-approve the cultivated land of military households, and if the cultivated land is insufficient, the local management officer and defense officer shall be responsible for leading the people to reclaim wasteland; At the same time, all departments in Qinglai Town should verify all books and files, and all fraudulent case files should be cleaned up immediately, and relevant people should be questioned together.

At the same time, the Chamber of Commerce led by Wang Jing and the workshops managed by Song Gongming also entered Qingzhou Mansion and Laizhou Prefecture, began to maintain merchants from all over the country, and opened new workshops in suitable locations in various places.

With the full rollout of Liu Yan's new policy, Qingzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion suddenly set off a wave, and those officials, squires and others were panicked.

On the eighth day of October, Liu Yan received a warrant from Lu Xiangsheng and prepared to go to Jinan Fucheng to report to Governor Lu Xiangsheng and Governor Yan Jizu.

Describe the situation of the Qinglai Town Military Academy, the situation of Liu Yan's lectures, explain the firearms operation, the future military development, the situation of the Ming Dynasty, and so on.

Generals at all levels above the general flag officer level must take turns to study, and they must also train special military praise paintings.

Some people died, but not completely......
