Chapter 1055 Military Academy
The ink on the tip of the pen left a mass of ink on the paper. Cai Que shook his head and smiled bitterly. He was an expert in calligraphy, so he couldn't see the ink stain at all.
I hastily approved a few sentences, put the chapter aside, and picked up another copy.
There is no other way. If you choose to give up on Wang Gui, then you may lose the best opportunity in your life, or even be unable to stand out again.
When he was in Weizhou, Su You was his immediate boss, and he was the one who lifted him out of the mud.
Later, he followed the path of Mr. Anshi and was promoted by the Rockets.
Su You's qualifications and reputation are all above his own, and the most important thing is his youth. If he were to be his subordinate again, he would definitely be able to survive better than himself...
It's a pity... I have to give up the idea of cooperating with Su You.
Looking at the Li Bu Quan Kao in his hand, Cai Zhen couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. After all, there was no one in the bag...
Su You didn't think much about it. He was standing on the edge of Shifu School Ground, watching the cute Colander pedaling his tricycle.
In the history books of later generations, he is destined to be portrayed as Zhao Xu's loyal dog, helping him consolidate the monarch's power and split the power of the prime minister.
In order to achieve Zhao Xu's will, he did not hesitate to cooperate with his relatives, compromise with the middle-ranking officials, and strive to create achievements for them and allow them to gain promotions and titles.
Su You is a politician, and he knows very well that politicians who criticize the sky, the earth, and the air will usually change careers quickly.
Even saying goodbye.
Politics Politics, politics is a means, governance is the purpose.
From a sociological perspective, this is a behavioral process in which social groups make collective decisions together.
Therefore, this collective decision-making naturally needs to take into account the interests of as many groups as possible.
Different from the traditional scholar-officials, he did not think that the only two groups in the world were the royal family and the scholar-officials as mentioned by his senior brother.
In order to take care of the interests of as many groups as possible, Suyou has actually sold out many of its own interests, made many compromises, and suffered many grievances.
"Old Book of Tang Dynasty·Pei Du Biography": "I'm happy when I hear that I don't need medicine, and I'm even more happy about the power of adjusting the tripod."
To harmonize the cauldron and provide gentle food and supplements, instead of drugging the country at every turn, this is the duty of the Prime Minister in itself.
In other words, it is the duty of the Prime Minister to balance the interests of all parties, keep everyone consistent in their goals, and feel that the soup of the Song Dynasty tastes good.
This spoon was born to be grasped by the Prime Minister, so this grievance burning by the smoke and fire by the stove was born to be handled by the Prime Minister.
If you can't stand this at all, then just stop doing politics and go teach and educate people, or help the world by helping others, which is actually quite good.
Of course, there will definitely be people who say that I don’t believe in this evil, so I’m going to use medicine and go under the knife, that is, I’m going to completely shuffle the cards, okay?
Of course it's not impossible.
But the question is, does just overthrowing the emperor count as shuffling the cards? No.
It was also necessary to kill Fan Zhongyan, Fu Bi, Han Qi, Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, Su Shi, Su Che, Zeng Gong, Zhang Zai, Cheng Zhu Xi, completely kill the scholar-bureaucrats, and then replace them with a new emerging class.
Otherwise, history will still return to its original track with its stubborn inertia.
Is this advisable today when the Chinese nation is facing internal and external troubles?
Su You is a somewhat idealistic pragmatist.
Having ideals is the attributive, and being pragmatic is the subject.
…
At the southern foot of Songshan Mountain, a huge permanent military building is under construction.
The people responsible for the construction of this military stronghold were the students of the first Royal Institute of Technology.
There is a mountain temple near the stockade, which is now occupied by Zhongjie, and it has become the preparatory office of the Polytechnic Institute.
The New Army is also a brand-new subject for Zhejiang. Fortunately, the New Army is only a part of the academy. Su You has already planned the structure of the academy properly. The Training Department, Political Department, Research Institute, Strategy Department, and Campaign Department are what they are today.
Several major subjects.
These are teaching and research units that provide training for high-level generals.
In addition, there are branches such as liberal arts, science, riding, artillery, infantry, vehicles, carriages, engineering, and medicine, which are professional branches for training middle- and lower-level officers.
Everything was started in the first place, and the students are still living in big tents, studying half of the day and building half of the day every day, and people are still coming from all over.
They are all outstanding talents selected from the military in various places. They must first pass an examination. They need to be proficient in writing, numeracy, have military experience, have professional expertise, and have no criminal family members in the third generation. It is best to have an official in their ancestors. Children of martyrs can be relaxed appropriately.
There are a lot of standards and various conditions...
To meet such requirements, the difficulty is not ordinary. The students mainly come from Sichuan, Fujian, Zhejiang and Zhejiang, and Bianjing. This records that the cultural level of the children is relatively high.
There is also Shaanxi, but the students in Shaanxi are basically selected from the military, and there are more students in Weizhou.
As for Hebei, they are basically all descendants of generals, and they are few in number.
The remuneration is extremely generous. In addition to being overseen from head to toe by the imperial court, new students are also given five rations of military pay every month, which is almost the salary of a county lieutenant in a lower county.
Students are in a class of ten, living in a large tent, and then elect a class leader on their own. They wear the rank of quasi-guard and can earn seven guan. This is the salary of a county lieutenant before the reform, and they are considered to have entered the new military class.
And I heard that these salaries were allocated by His Majesty from the inner treasury, so they are considered disciples of the Emperor.
Entering the school is very different from other military camps. The corporal punishment here is running, and the maximum is confinement. There is no cane or even cutting.
Officers, instructors and soldiers eat in the same canteen, there is no difference.
From the moment you enter the school, you will first undergo a physical examination, then be cleaned, and then change into the new army uniform from top to bottom, inside and out.
Mercerized cotton underwear, cotton socks, leather shoes, abaca uniforms, leather armed belts, bedding, enamel cups, lunch boxes, washbasins... everything has been considered.
Many students who had never seen the world came in and made a lot of jokes.
A rookie, who was carrying a backpack and carrying two net bags, and who looked like he had just washed his hands, came to the door of a large tent: "Excuse me, is this the Third Artillery Squadron..."
Inside the tent, a boy who looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old shouted to a young man: "Brother Wang, here comes a scholar!"
The man named Brother Wang raised his head and said, "Hurry up and pick up your stuff. Brother, come here, do you know how to play fifty-four cards?"
It turned out that several people were playing poker inside.
The new student smiled and said, "I know a little bit."
An unusually strong young man threw out a card and said: "Newcomers should submit their resume first."
The rookie stood at attention: "Liangzhe Road, Hangzhou Qiangu, report to the squad leader!"
In the blink of an eye, the sturdy young man was kicked by a slender young man next to him: "The boss didn't even ask, so you just interrupted!"
Another young man put down his cards and said, "Help my brother to clean up his gifts first. Don't peek at my cards..."
Several people also put down the cards in their hands and came over to get things for the rookie. The enthusiasm made the rookie feel overwhelmed.
The oldest brother Wang opened a cabinet and said, "Brother, please use this cabinet."
The clever young man who spoke first asked: "Xiucai, where are you from? You have money and grain, so why did your family let you join the army?"
Qian Gu quickly shook his head: "No...no way..."
The first one to put down his cards said: "Liang Zhe Road, the person named Qian is designated to be the queen of King Wu Su!"
Qian Gu's face turned pale. His brother also told him to keep a low profile after entering the camp, but as soon as he entered the tent, his life experience was revealed in the first sentence.
Brother Wang smiled and said: "Brother Qian, don't be nervous. The mountain leader specially arranged for us to be in the same class because our status is a bit special."
After speaking, he pointed to the young man with the earliest square card: "This is Zhong Pu, courtesy name Shu Jian, the nephew of Zhongshan Chief, and the son of Zhong Wulang of the Western Army."
Then he pointed at the strong young man: "Yao Xiong, the son of the Western Army general Yao Hutou. Don't be fooled by his stout figure. In fact, he is the youngest, only twelve years old. Hahaha, but he has a wife.
Where is the eldest daughter of the Divine Arrow family?"
Yao Xiong's face suddenly turned red: "Brother Wang, please stop making trouble!"
Brother Wang was too lazy to care about him, and then introduced another person: "This eldest man's name is Zhe Keda, whose courtesy name is Boyao. He is not much older than Yao Pangdun. He is the eldest son of the Zhe family."
"The person who helps you carry things is called Miao Lu, the son of Miao Shu, the general of the Western Army."
Qian Gu is about to cry. This group is full of killers, and their fathers are all generals from the Western Army. I am just a weak scholar from the southeast. Is the mountain chief going to torture me to death?
With a sad face, he asked: "Then...what about you, brother?"
Brother Wang smiled and said, "My name is Wang Junwan."
