Xinshun 1730

Chapter 137 The Legacy of Zebei Later Generations

Liu Sheng's metaphor made Liu Yu feel as if he spit out half a fly from his mouth, and felt nauseated for a while.

But if you think about it again, it seems that this is really the case.The emperor used it to do some serious business, but he could finally accept it. Thinking about it, he could bear the burden of humiliation.

Now that the name is right and the word is right, the emperor is so anxious to ask him to prepare for the exam selection questions, Liu Yu feels more at ease.

Whether it is the new army or the newly established navy, he should be in charge.

Before Shangshilun, he had already chosen the location of the Naval Academy.

A navy needs a sea.

He thought about using North Korea and Japan to break the situation, and he naturally thought of a place.

Liugong Island.

The shame of Jiawu, the hatred of ravages, naturally have to return blood with blood, and if they fall on Liugong Island, they must stand up on Liugong Island.

Liugongdao Naval Academy... Well, it's very exciting.

Liu Yu also plans to run the new army on Liugong Island as well.

The island is not big, and it is separated by the sea, so I can't even go out to see the world of flowers.

Just like what Kang Bulao said, the power of the country can be seen from the side by using the style of frontier poems, and whether the new army is strong or not can be seen from the side without fighting.

For example, the new army compiled and trained by Yuan Shikai, when they were ordered to do something wrong, they didn’t even know how to smash, smash, and loot. They foolishly carried out military orders, occupied key points in the city, and then didn’t know what to do…

If it weren't for the guidance of the big brother of the Huai Army, they would not even have experience as soldiers and robbers.If such an army can be trained, it must be regarded as a strong army at this time.

A place like Liugong Island, which is isolated from the land, is just right.

As for the emperor asking him to write a question, there is no formal appointment yet, but there is actually nothing to consider in such a matter as being responsible for writing a question.

What to test?
None of the new students in Wude Palace know how to sail.

The topic of the exam is not the key, what kind of talents to choose is the key.

Although the emperor asked him to do this matter, the emperor would definitely choose to be kind and make him loyal. When the time came, the emperor would definitely meet the person selected by himself, so as to let him know that he was a student of the emperor.

Thinking of this, I also became impatient.

Ignoring what else was written in Tian Zhenyi's pamphlet, I packed up and went straight to Yang Erguan Alley where the Raksha captives lived.

Bering and the others were wearing a civil official uniform embroidered with egret patches.

There are also a few Raksha people in there. They pronounce it with a big tongue, but they can't pronounce Liu, so they simply pronounce it as You. After going back and forth, the good "Liu Yu" has become the "squid" in the mouth of the Raksha people.

This name is really ugly, so Liu Yu simply asked the group of Rakshasa people to call him "Yuri".

Bai Ling and the others saluted a little awkwardly, and Liu Yu also returned the salute, and then heard the good news.

"Yuri, the expedition ship is back. The emperor left some people and sailors, and went all the way around North Korea along the coastline from the mouth of the Heilongjiang River. It's a pity that there are no professional surveyors, and they just drew some simple coastline maps."

This is indeed good news. Although there is no perfect map of the coastline, at least we can be sure that Sakhalin Island is an island rather than a peninsula. It is finally an exploration.

The ship is not big, but it can be repaired and repaired, and it can be used as a training ship.

Thinking that he had gained a lot by the banks of Heilongjiang, Liu Yu was in a good mood, so he invited this batch of rewards for the rank-[-] official uniforms, but in fact they were not rank-[-] officials, they just enjoyed the salary of rank-[-] officials, and they couldn't figure it out The "foreign officials" had a meal together.

Back then, he was an enemy, so he could humiliate him however he wanted.

Now that they need their help, Liu Yu has nothing to do with it. Considering the taboos and taboos, he took this group of Orthodox Christians to find a place where they can drink and go back to the restaurant...

After a few glasses of wine, they communicated in Latin, and there was no need to reveal any secrets.

Liu Yu talked about the training of naval officers.

It took only three or forty years for the Russians to evolve from sampans and manpower paddle boats to sailing warships.

Bering and others even witnessed the process of the Russian Navy from existence to non-existence. Some of them were learned by their elders who had been to Venice, France, and the Netherlands.

Generally speaking, everyone didn't quite understand the quality of Dashun's officers.

"Yuri, if all of your young people are like you, there will be no need for any assessments at all. You only need to go on a ship for an internship, and within a year, you will understand everything."

"If I were the captain, you only need to submit the sailing records and observation reports to me every week. Organize the sailors to clean the deck, learn to hang the sails, catch mice, observe the wind direction, and arrange the rigging."

This is Bering's answer.

Liu Yu asked others again, and the answers were almost the same.The officers of the most powerful navy in Europe basically entered through the back door. In fact, the real learning is still on board.

It's just that the promotion system is relatively strict, it's easy to get on board, but it's hard to become a full-time employee.

Thinking about the average level of the new Wude Palace, Liu Yu said: "These young military officers, um... have a rough knowledge of surveying and mapping. They should be able to understand simple geometry and simple trigonometric functions."

Hearing this, Bering looked at Liu Yu in surprise, and asked, "Such students can go directly to the ship. Don't you want them to learn more? Even in the Netherlands and England, such candidate officers need What you do is to learn everything on the ship, and pass the assessment a few years later to become a regular. You don't plan to let the chef, carpenter, and gunner all get points?"

"Are you asking for military cadets with the requirements of explorers and legendary captains?"

Not only Bering, but everyone at the table was puzzled.

The Russian Navy has begun to take shape. They have all experienced it. They know the level of sailors and officers very well.

The Russian Academy of Sciences is very powerful, but the basic education is very poor, relying on a group of geniuses.

Even the current European naval power, according to what Liu Yu said, knowing geometry and simple surveying and mapping, can actually board a ship as an intern.

What surprised them was that Dashun had such a talent pool. Why was the navy so poor?

Could it be that these alternate officers were all transferred from the artillery?
Liu Yu was a little unsure, and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Sure. It takes about five years to go from a naval intern to an officer. And none of these things can be learned on shore."

"If you want to be a good captain-cartographer-explorer, you probably need a foundation like yours. But if you just want a bunch of naval officers, you don't need a foundation like yours at all. Just geometry and Fundamentals of Surveying and Mapping."

"The Naval Academy in St. Petersburg only teaches arithmetic, geometry, trigonometry, astronomy, gunnery, and surveying."

What these people said was similar, Liu Yu pondered for a while and asked: "Then what about the use of the sextant?"

"You know geometry and surveying, but not how to use a sextant?"

"Uh……"

Liu Yu was a little embarrassed.

Looking at it now, Li Guo left an extremely rich legacy, far richer than he thought.

It's just that although the death of the people has not stopped, no one knows how to turn this rich heritage into strength.

The only advantage is that Dashun's artillery skills are not far behind, but other than that, these students from Wude Palace are either going to be military officers or civil servants, and they have not formed a new type of navy.

After asking some more questions, and contacting Du Feng's level he was familiar with, he knew it well.

There is still a gap between what Bering and the others think and the reality.

Students like Du Feng know geometry, and the "Measurement Method" is a must, but they have never been exposed to more systematic naval knowledge.

The foundation is there, but what is lacking, such as the use of sextant, wind speed measurement, star map recognition and other things, the meaning of measurement is just simple geometric application skills.

It seems that the course can be considered to be streamlined and focus on internships?
That being said, it doesn't really matter what the exam is for?The important thing is that anyone who can be admitted to Wude Palace must pass the application of geometry and triangulation.

So... is it possible to pick a batch of this year's failed students from the good families of the old fifth battalion?
He asked Bering and the others carefully again, and learned that the warship was divided into officers and non-commissioned officers.

Such as chefs, gunners, carpenters, etc., and the captain's growth path is not the same line.

Can those failed students from good families in the old fifth battalion be used as trainee non-commissioned officers?And let the students of Wude Palace serve as trainee officers?
The upper three homes are in the capital, and the camp school is also a three-room system. For those like Du Feng whose father has meritorious service and who is not from the fifth battalion, he can take the exam directly.

Those who are qualified to take the Martial Virtue Palace examination in the camp-school three-room system, although their level is a bit poor, should be enough to take on the important task of trainee non-commissioned officer, right?

Thinking about the things in the Martial Arts Palace Examination, he complained to his classmates at the beginning: Either a marshal should learn, such as Sun Wu Sima Liutao;

If you want to run a junior officer school for the navy, you don't need to learn Sun Wu Sima Rangju, nor do you need to learn riding, spear, and archery.

The focus of the exam should be on geometry, measurement, arithmetic, and application of logical thinking.

Those who did not get into Wude Palace may be very strong in these things, but they are not good in other things, and they have not achieved comprehensive development.

Among these people, there must be talents.

Poor riding skills may be, but poor riding skills are obviously not necessarily related to whether you can calculate latitude with trigonometric functions.

After eating and seeing off Bai Ling and the others, Liu Yu pondered over it carefully and was sure that his judgment should be right.

Therefore, this time, there are two sets of questions to be asked.

The first set of questions is to choose an alternate officer.

The second set of questions is to choose a substitute non-commissioned officer.

The new students of Wude Palace only use the first set of questions.

The students who failed in the camp school first used the first set of questions to select talents, and then used the second set of questions to select the next-best non-commissioned officers.

There are 12 households of good families in the fifth camp, and there are hundreds of people who can enter the camp to study and go to school.

Thinking about what Bai Ling and others said, Liu Yu couldn't help muttering that he regarded the level of compulsory education for future generations as his current goal, and his own brain is also a little problematic.

"Damn, this inheritance is really rich. After cooperating with Dashun all these years, did he guard Baoshan and cry poorly? Or did the emperor spend all his brain on balancing?"

"Ze Bei is a future generation."
