Chapter 647 Central Military Academy
The Central Military Academy and the Central Military College refer to the same school, which is the highest military institution in China. It is also a comprehensive military university with the most subjects, the strongest faculty, the most strict admission, the most strict study, and the most strict graduation.
This is true for both fresh graduates and trainees in the advanced study class.
Compared with the relaxed atmosphere of the advanced study class of the Central Political College, the Central Military Academy is like the eighteenth level of hell.
It has been five years since Chen Han officially founded the country, and the new education system has covered all aspects of society. All subjects such as industry, commerce, civil affairs, law, and military are covered. The military academy has naturally completed the establishment of the entire system, from the most basic non-commissioned officer school to professional schools, then to specialized military departments, and then to comprehensive universities...
"The Muslim world has a long history of institutions, and many people in your world already have the concept of school in their minds. This is much stronger than China and the East."
"You know, in ancient times, we had more academies. China's ancient education system is very different from the education model of schools. In the past few years, I have been vigorously promoting new-style education. Although the time is still very short, the effect has already been shown to a certain extent."
Let the Ottomans develop new-style education, which is the second trick Chen Ming used against Selim. Although this will inevitably make the education system heavily linked to the Muslim religion, this is necessary under the current situation of the Ottoman Empire. From a long-term perspective, it will inevitably have an adverse impact on the Ottomans. But Chen Ming does not need to be responsible for the future of the Ottomans? As long as the new-style education can develop in the Ottoman Empire, it will definitely inject a new force into the Ottoman Empire in ten or twenty years, which will make it easier for China to manipulate it. That's enough.
"China's new-style education will continue to develop ahead of time in the next few decades. Our normal colleges that train all kinds of teachers will continue to increase, train more and more teachers, build more and more schools, and let more and more people enter the school gate when they are children."
"China has attached importance to knowledge since ancient times. Now, knowledge can change a person's destiny." Selim also agrees with this statement. In Ottoman, a learned person will also win the respect of the nobles and powerful.
"Of course, given the current reality, we have to adhere to the principle of walking on two legs. While developing conventional education and reserving talents for future development, on the other hand, we also carry out quick popular education to meet the development needs of the current society."
Chen Ming is instilling a concept in Selim, using all means and methods to facilitate the development of the country. Everything is for the strength of the country.
In China, although the new education is still in its infancy, it takes ten years to grow a tree and a hundred years to cultivate a person, so five years is too short. But the facts show that this development idea is still very desirable.
The regular education that started with children is developing steadily, and the accelerated education of adults has also added a lot of impetus to the development of society.
Anyway, China is now open to Selim and others, and it depends on whether they can learn from it.
Perhaps if bilateral exchanges deepen further, China will become the destination for Ottomans to "study abroad", and become the object of Ottoman learning in the future. It is not impossible that the flower of Ottoman revolution will be born on Chinese soil.
The notice that the emperor and international friends will come to the Central Military Academy today was delivered to the school's desk yesterday. Although the letter clearly stated that the school was not allowed to make any preparations, who in the entire Central Military Academy, from the director to the student soldiers guarding the gate, didn't know?
The entire Central Military Academy started cleaning before dawn today.
When Chen Ming got off the car in front of the gate, he looked at the military academy with a shiny iron gate, and felt that he could roll on the ground without getting dirty.
All the school leaders were present, and when a team of student soldiers standing on duty at the gate saw Chen Ming, their faces flushed unconsciously.
"Your Majesty, I greet you." The senior officials of the school put on military uniforms one by one. Almost all of them were heroes who had walked down the battlefield, but this peaceful life has only been a few years, and some of them have stomachs as big as a watermelon in their arms.
However, in this era, fat is not a derogatory term, and it is a blessing to eat well and have a good appetite.
"This is Selim, the Ottoman envoy. I will walk around the school with the envoy today, and you should do whatever you should do."
Of course, there are "high-quality" Ottoman military representatives in the Ottoman delegation, including the injured Mirza, and many of them are heroes in the last Russo-Turkish War. The whole team was divided into three layers of small teams of five or six people at the gate. There were Ottomans, Chinese escorts, and translators. Their respective goals were different, covering infantry, cavalry, artillery, navy, staff, logistics, politics, engineers, and gendarmerie.
Many of these were small teams formed temporarily, such as staff, politics, engineers, and gendarmerie. Selim and his group who set out from Istanbul had no preparation in this regard. In the Ottomans' cognition, war is infantry, cavalry, artillery, navy, and logistics.
After getting in touch with politics, Selim and others felt that this was somewhat similar to the religious order in the Guards.
The gate of the Central Military Academy was very uncharacteristic. But the roads throughout the military academy and the roads in front of the military academy were paved with cement. There was not a single leaf left to be cleaned now.
Trash cans and statues can often be seen on both sides of the road.
Statues of ancient Chinese generals of all sizes are lined up throughout the campus, including some heroes in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, such as Yan Yingyuan, Lu Xiangsheng, Zheng Chenggong, Li Dingguo, Qin Liangyu, Zhang Huangyan, etc. As for the statue inside the gate of the military academy, it is of course Chen Ming himself.
As a comprehensive military university, the architectural style here is more of the modern architecture of the 21st century in Chen Ming's memory, square and full of geometric sense, which is not very beautiful in the eyes of people of this era.
But such a building can undoubtedly save a lot of money for Chen Han's tight finances.
Although the strength of cement in the current era is far from comparable to that of the 21st century, it is still possible to build three, four or five floors.
Compared with the area of the entire Central Military Academy, the area of pure building land is undoubtedly very small. So a large number of open spaces were opened up by the school as playgrounds, training grounds and sports fields.
There are sports venues for football, polo, shooting, wrestling, etc. in the school.
The school implements military management. The entire Central Military Academy is more like a military camp than a school.
Teachers and students are neatly dressed, dormitories are clean, and their behavior is serious and their attitude is correct. Two people standing side by side or three people standing in a row is the most basic requirement.
On work and study days, teachers and students must sign in on time; the workload is broken down into weekly, and there are hard indicators for how many class hours to take. Class hours cannot be missed without special reasons. In addition to class hours, there must be corresponding scientific research workload and detailed assessments of professional nature.
From the school gate to the teaching building, the principal, the dean of academic affairs, etc. introduced some of the achievements and course arrangements of the Central Military Academy along the way.
Selim is also an official, and the official culture of the Ottoman Empire is also very deep. Of course, he knew that this was the landlord taking the opportunity to give the boss a brief work report.
He kept silent, just listening to a pair of ears and watching with a pair of eyes.
Walking along the cement road to the campus, there are green trees planted on both sides of the road. The grass and trees that were transplanted are now lush and green, and there are various flowers and trees in between. Under the summer sun, they compete to bloom.
There are also a few stones dotted among the green trees and flowers, and there are a few benches under the shade of the green trees.
Those stones, standing up are tables, and laying down are chairs. The arrangement is simple and elegant, and quite ingenious.
This directly reminded Selim of the scene he saw when he visited Yangcheng Business School in Guangzhou. Such an arrangement is in the same vein, making people feel relaxed and happy while walking.
I remember that it was the second day after the Ottoman fleet arrived in Guangzhou. The name of Guangzhou is very loud in the whole world, so Guangzhou became the first stop for the Ottomans to land on the Chinese mainland. Even that stop is unnecessary.
Selim visited Yangcheng Business School, which is the first private institution in Nanling. In recent years, it has trained a large number of business backbones for the Guangzhou Business Group. Selim has a good memory. The layout of the Central Military Academy campus in front of him has the same meaning as that of the private school, although the beauty here is much higher than that.
I remember that day when Selim visited Yangcheng Business School, he happened to catch the latter doing drills.
In Yangcheng Business School, after the second class every morning, all students have to go to the big playground to practice martial arts. Although the Hongquan set is just a set of fancy moves, Yangcheng Business School requires all students to master it. After the second class every morning, they practice boxing together to cultivate students' self-improvement spirit.
Although this statement made Selim very confused.
But the memory of that day is really very deep. When he walked outside the big playground, the martial arts practice had ended. After completing the last few movements, each class gathered their formations and returned to class.
The students wearing uniform military school uniforms marched in neat steps and in strict formation towards their respective teaching buildings. Although there were dozens of teams marching at the same time, the playground looked as messy as a pile of weeds. But the teams seemed to have the best tacit understanding in the world. They shuttled back and forth in formation. The complex queues were running in an orderly manner under the leadership of the squad leaders. After a while, they all evacuated the venue and returned to their respective classrooms.
Are these still students?
This is completely an army.
At that time, Selim was stunned. He really doubted whether the name of this school was wrong. This should not be a business school, but a military school with strict teaching.
Just like the place under the banner of the Muslim Church, there are actually a bunch of soldiers hidden inside.
At that time, all the people in Osman’s group were speechless-they were shocked too much. If these business school students in front of them put on military uniforms, they felt that they would be first-class strong soldiers! The formation was flexible, so many people followed the command and acted as one person. Not many people in the elite corps under the Ottoman frontier governor could do it.
Entering the teaching building, everyone in the group consciously shut their mouths. Even their footsteps were softened and slowed down.
There are classrooms at both ends of the corridor. Standing outside the classroom, you can still hear the loud voices of the teachers in the classroom.
Chen Ming led Selim to stop at the windows of the left and right classrooms. The large glass windows were bright and clean, and the light was excellent. Of course, the students in the bright classroom would not fail to notice Chen Ming, but no one turned their heads to look at them without permission, including the teachers in the classroom.
This is the second-year artillery class 3.
There are only 30 students in the whole class, sitting in rows of 6*5, and each student has his own table, a very large table. Every student is listening to the teacher's explanation attentively and taking notes seriously.
"The artillery class of the Central Military Academy has two classes per term, each with 30 people. The infantry class has three classes, each with 30 people. In addition, there are cavalry, navy, logistics, military industry and other arms. The source of students is from the whole society, and some are soldiers from the army. It can provide more than 300 excellent grassroots officers for the army every year."
"China has many comprehensive military universities and specialized military academies throughout the country. Now it can provide at least 2,000 excellent grassroots officers of various arms for our army in a year.
There are also intermediate and advanced study classes in our military academies. The students recruited are all intermediate and senior officers in the army, and they are always supplementing their brains with the latest theoretical knowledge.
This is a blood-making machine that can make our army stronger every year. When you build it from scratch, it is very troublesome. There are all kinds of things missing. But when it is running, it can be used by the army. Constantly produce fresh blood to be injected into the army, complete the replacement of the old and the new in the army, and complete the reform of the army.
The replacement of the old and the new, the new force replaces the old generation, and completes a cycle of the army. This is also the key to an army's ability to ensure vigorous combat effectiveness. "
"There is an old saying in our army, the iron camp is permanent, but the soldiers are changing."
"Thirty years old is a line for soldiers. Unless they are non-commissioned officers, all soldiers who reach the age of thirty are retired from active service. 18 years old is the age line for our new recruits. Of course, new soldiers do not have the combat effectiveness of veterans, but as long as we have a high-quality officer team, we can continuously bring out batches of soldiers who can fight and dare to fight. "
This is like after the establishment of a new education system, as long as the primary, middle and high-level education schools appear, they can continuously generate power, just like the late Qing Dynasty in history. As long as the source of this power is not cut off, history shows that they can grow little by little, and eventually participate in the tide of society as a political force.
This is the case in China, with a strong religious color, and the Ottoman Empire with heavy historical shackles will also be the same.
However, when the Ottomans would eventually reach that point was beyond Chen Ming's prediction.
Chen Ming accompanied Selim and his friends through classroom after classroom on the first and second floors. They saw regular classrooms with bright windows and well-shielded military academy students' war chess simulations.
They saw classrooms that were completely silent with only the teacher's voice, and they also saw messy war chess simulation rooms.
But no matter what kind of classroom it was, there was no scene where teachers and students delayed their work and study because of Chen Ming's identity.
"Ding Ding Ding..."
The bell rang for the end of get out of class.
There was no movement in the war chess simulation room. It was a large class, and it could last all day. Among all the classrooms, Selim found that only the war chess simulation room had a wind lamp hanging on the wall.
"Okay, this class is over, get out of class is over."
"Hello, teacher."
Such voices rang throughout the corridor.
"Hua hua hua..."
The meticulous students rushed out of the classroom, and the shouts of the emperor's arrival resounded throughout the teaching building.
"Selim, I won't accompany you next. You can take the translator to walk around, take a walk, and have a look." Chen Ming put down his responsibility and gave Selim space to move freely. He turned to the group of school leaders behind him and said, "Let's go around the playground next. I have heard of the reputation of the Central Military Academy football team. It has always been known as the martial arts team. If they can't win in football, they can fight three people at once."
The Central Military Academy is full of soldiers, with strong bodies, good physical fitness, strong fighting spirit, and high urine. Due to their background, they often involuntarily use larger movements on the court. Even if they are sanctioned by the referee every time, won't the opposing players have to bear it?
There are two high-end football leagues in Nanjing City, and football is very popular among the people.
One is the Nanjing University League, and the other is the Nanjing Football League.
With Chen Ming's support, how can football not develop rapidly? The big boss behind this football league is Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce.
After the two league games every year, the champion and runner-up teams will participate in the competition for the Bauhinia Cup, which is of course also Chen Ming's advice.
As a result, the football league champion team, whose skills are obviously higher than those of the college league, fell to the feet of the Central Military Academy football team who dared to fight for two consecutive years. And the Central Military Academy football team, which used the kick that cut off the descendants again and again on the green field, also earned itself the title of "Martial Arts Team".
No one knows that this nickname can give Chen Ming a sense of intimacy.
