Chapter 179: "PLA Zoo"

I'm sorry, I had something at home yesterday, I'll make it up.

On November 1, the 26th year of the Republic (192 AD), Lianyungang.

At the foot of Chuanshan in the southeast of Lianyungang City, there is a large area of newly built buildings, which is the school area of Lianyungang. There are schools such as Jiangsu Maritime Campus, East China Shipbuilding College, Lianyungang Naval Non-commissioned Officer College, East China Ocean University and so on. In addition to these relatively normal schools, there is also a very unusual school - the People's Liberation Army Animal Academy.

When you see the name, you know that this school is different from the previous schools, this is a school for animal schools, and it is also a military school, yes, it is a military school for animals.

The predecessor of this school was the Sichuan Mintuan Dog and Horse Training Department, which was established in 19uu, and was an institution specializing in training military dogs and horses for the "Sichuan Mintuan" (that is, the Xingke Guarding Factory Team). After the establishment of the Southwest Autonomous Government, this dog and horse training department was upgraded to a dog and horse training department, and later upgraded to a military animal training camp. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was relocated to Lianyungang City and reorganized as the People's Liberation Army Zoological College.

The school has the largest campus in the area, covering an area of 33 square kilometers, which is not as large as the other schools combined. And it also has forests, grasslands, swamps, lakes, rivers, tidal flats, and most of the terrain except deserts and ice fields, of course, many of which are artificially created.

Up to now, the "students" here have long been not only horses and dogs, but also cats, rats, ferrets, eagles, pigeons, elephants, camels, pigs, sheep, cows, panda whales, dolphins, sea lions and even octopuses and other animals, with more than 4o species and more than 60,000 (heads and horses).

It is precisely because of this that this school is also called the "PLA Zoo" by good deeds. In fact, this kind of "PLA Zoo" is not limited to Lianyungang, there are such schools in other places, but the scale is far from so large, and there are not so many animal species. For example, the Qinghai Military Animal School in Xining, the Yunnan Military Animal School in Kunming, the Xinjiang Military Animal School in Hami, and the Suiyuan Military Animal School in Baotou have relatively single breeds of trainees

It can be said that the PLA Zoological Academy is the largest, most complete and most advanced military animal school on the earth today, and has the highest teaching quality

However, Comrade Yang Ning, the head of the third department (military horse department), was not happy here, because he was in charge of military horse education here, so he was given the nickname "Bi Ma Wen", the same title as Monkey King. Well, this is only a secondary issue, the main thing here is that the work here is too far from his ideals.

"Why do I, a cavalry student, want to be Bi Ma Wen?" Yang Ning looked at the thick stack of military horse files on the table, and couldn't help but sigh faintly.

Yang Ningzi Pingyuan, 2 years old this year, is a native of Hanyang, Hubei, and was born in a local merchant family. He was one of the first batch of international students in the Xingke Study Abroad Program, and was sent to France to study in 19uu, because he admired cavalry since he was a child, so he was a student of the cavalry department of the Saint-Cyr Military Academy in France. In 191o, when he returned to China after completing his studies, he happened to encounter the "Liberation of the Three North Campaign", Yang Ning was assigned to the Northwest Military Region as a cavalry platoon commander, after the liberation of the Northwest, he was promoted to captain cavalry company commander, and last year was sent to Wuchang's Zhongshi University (formerly Wuchang Revolutionary Army Command College) for further study to study intermediate command courses.

After graduating from the Military University, his superiors did not let him continue to work on the front line, but let him live in this "PLA Zoo". Probably as compensation, the original head of the department was transferred to Suiyuan 2 months ago, and he was promoted to another level as the head of the department, and the military rank was also promoted to major. It stands to reason that it is already very good to be able to become a major at the age of 2. However, it was not Yang Ning's ideal to be Bi Ma Wen, what he wanted most was to lead the cavalry to gallop across the country and defeat the enemy for thousands of miles.

Well, although Major Yang's current work is also related to horses, the two are also too far away.

"Could it be the reason why I learned to raise horses in France......" Yang Ning thought for a while, feeling that this was probably the biggest reason. "However, our Chinese military horses are not the same as foreign ones, no, all military animals are different, they are so smart that they are not like animals, no wonder the place where animals are trained should be made like a human school......"

At this time, the internal phone rang, and Yang Ning picked up the phone: "Hey, the third department office ......"

Someone on the phone said: "Director Yang? I am the school office, and today representatives of some fraternal units of the Northeast Military Region are going to visit and select a group of animal cadets. They may be able to ask some professional questions, so the principal asks you to participate in the reception. The time was 2 p.m. ......"

"Okay, I'll prepare ......" Yang Ning hung up the phone and began to deal with the text on the desk.

"Deputy Colonel of the 3rd Division, Deputy Colonel of the 3rd Regiment, Yi Damao ......" Yi Damao and others first gave a military salute to the reception staff of the school, and then introduced themselves.

After the other party returned the salute, he also began to introduce himself.

"Head of the Third Department of the PLA Zoological Academy, Major of the 6th Army, Yang Ning, responsible for the ...... of military horse education"

When it was Yang Ning's turn to introduce himself, Yi Damao and the others were obviously solid. A whispered discussion ensued.

"God, it's really a man's ......"

"It's so unscientific that a man looks like this"

There is no way, Yang Ning's appearance is "boy and girl" according to the traditional point, and it is "pseudo-mother" according to the fashionable point, and it is also the kind of pseudo-mother who is very good. That appearance and skin can ⊥ many women cry, plus his Adam's apple is not obvious, and he still has short shoulders, and he has been treated as a girl more than once. There are even people who pursue him as a goddess for unknown reasons......

Just now, Yi Damao and the others also thought that he was a female officer, and even several young officers had their eyes lit up, obviously having some kind of idea. As a result, it wasn't until he spoke that people realized that he was a man, and the few guys who had ideas just now suddenly withered like frosted eggplants.

However, Yang Ning has been accustomed to this kind of misunderstanding since he was a child, and he didn't take it seriously. Colleagues at the "zoo" are also used to it, but they think it's funny to see that someone has been fooled again.

The Northeast Military Region delegation was led by a colonel surnamed Zhang, director of the Second Office of the Military Region's General Staff.

"This time, we came to your school, and the main task is to select a group of military animals suitable for the Northeast region. Director Zhang went straight to the point and explained the meaning.

There is a vice principal on the school's side, and he immediately said: "This is no problem, we have received an order from our superiors, and you can choose the animals that are about to graduate from our school this year." ”

Yi Damao opened his mouth and said: "Comrade Vice President, I heard that you have military cats suitable for the cold zone here, and we want a batch of ......."

The vice principal smiled: "There is. However, the cold zone military cat is a new breed, and we don't have many of them here, and there are about 6o of them graduating this year.

"There are also military horses for the cold zone, war horses, and horses. ”

"Military dogs and sled dogs are indispensable......"

"War Eagles for Reconnaissance and Anti-Carrier Pigeons, Signal Eagles for Communications......"

Representatives of other departments also put forward their own demands.

"There is no problem with all of this, we have them here, but I am afraid that the number will not be able to satisfy you all......" The vice principal thought for a moment and said.

Director Zhang said: "How many ...... you want"

"This is the snow hoof horse, a new type of heavy pull-back horse, with an average weight of 11oo kilograms and an average shoulder height of 186 centimeters, although they are slightly smaller than the Sharma, but their strength and endurance are far superior to the Sharma, pulling a six-ton weight on flat ground without any problem. This horse is especially suitable for cold temperate and boreal regions, and can work well even at minus 2 degrees...... Of course, they can also be ridden, but their explosive power is not enough, so they are not suitable as war horses......"

Yang Ning gushed about the representatives of the Northeast Military Region: "Like other military animals in our country, this horse has a high intelligence, about the same as a 9-year-old child, that is to say, when you use them, don't treat them as horses, just be human." All the common commands, as well as simple everyday conversations, they are understandable......"

A large group of tall horseshoe horses stood neatly in front of the delegation, and they had stood for more than ten minutes now, but they had not moved, not even the tail flicking, which is a common movement for horses, and if it were not for the fact that their eyes were still blinking and the white air spewing from their mouths and noses, they would almost have made people think that they were wax figures rather than living horses.

"It's incredible, your horses are so well trained," Yi Damao couldn't help but say. "Do they want to stand in a military posture too?"

Yang Ning said proudly: "Of course, all the animals in our school, as long as they have legs, must stand in a military posture without exception......"

As he spoke, he turned to the horses and said, "Students, now turn back and crawl forward until you ...... across the playground."

The horses immediately came to a neat spot and turned back, then lay down and began to crawl forward until they reached the opposite side of the playground.

"Papapa......" The delegates applauded.

"Okay, this horse is good" Director Zhang smiled happily: "Director Yang, how many such horses do you have?"

"This year's graduation is 34o horses...... Yang Ning said casually.

"Okay, we're all going to ......"

"All of them?" Yang Ning was solid, and immediately said: "This is impossible, you all want it, what should the other troops do?"

The vice principal next to him hurriedly said: "Xiao Yang, there is an order from the superiors, and all the things that the Northeast Military Region wants this time will be met." ”

Yang Ning thought for a while and said, "Okay, but we also have to leave about 2 horses as seeds, and the rest can be handed over to them......"

"Okay, next, we're going to take a look at the military cat......" Yi Damao said. As a cat lover, Yi Damao has always been full of interest in this creature that can fight side by side with humans, but in the past, military cats only had breeds suitable for fighting in the south, and they had not been equipped with northern troops.
