There is a space for passenger planes in the late Ming Dynasty

The war was about to begin, and after adjusting the army's arrangements, Lin Feng felt more and more that he lacked available officers. The newly formed brigades all seriously lacked battalion commanders.

As more and more Ming troops were captured, these people were not confident about being directly assigned to their posts without some transformation. There were also outstanding talents emerging from newly recruited soldiers who also needed training, so the urgency of establishing a military academy immediately increased.

When faced with important decisions that needed to be made, Lin Feng entered the space as usual, leaned on his dedicated business seat and began to think.

Thinking about the problem here, one is that it is absolutely quiet and no one is disturbed, and it saves time. The other important reason is that the position is comfortable. Those wooden chairs from the Ming Dynasty are not as comfortable as the business seats on airplanes.

The purpose of establishing a military academy is definitely to cultivate qualified Zhenming Army officers, not only to improve military skills, but also to strengthen political training and improve the loyalty of reserve officers, especially captured officers.

Military instructors are easy to find. Generals from the surrounding areas can come and take turns to take classes. Political instructors are hard to find. They must be absolutely loyal to the Zhenming Army and have a deep understanding of the Zhenming Army's philosophy.

Lin Feng thought about it and decided that he should let Su Shunnian work part-time first. This veteran has been with him the longest and is loyal. The key is that he understands the philosophy and policies of the Zhenming Army.

As for the person in charge of the military academy, of course he has to be the principal himself, and the officer's loyalty cannot be entrusted to anyone else.

I think back then, a certain bald man managed to win over a lot of generals just by relying on his reputation as a principal.

He Shijie could be the vice principal in charge of administrative affairs. He had a certain status, but he didn't have much real power and didn't need much ability. There just happened to be no place to place him.

In addition, there are two vice-principals responsible for military and political training respectively. The political vice-principal is Su Shunnian concurrently. The original suitable candidate for military vice-principal was Wang Qin, but he could not get through on the northern front. Song Jilie and Zhou Rui All must lead troops to fight.

Lin Feng thought about it and felt that Zhuang Hong's military quality was good. Although he was a little conservative in fighting, his basic skills were still solid. He could teach basic camp setup, defense layout, training organization, etc., which was very useful for newly recruited officers.

In this way, several higher-level demoted generals will also have a place to go, which will also help attract more Ming army generals to surrender.

After considering the person in charge of the military academy, Lin Feng thought about the training time and classroom settings. After roughly considering it, he made room and prepared to summon relevant personnel for deployment.

The lobby of Jiazhou Governor's Mansion.

Lin Feng convened Su Shunnian, Lin Jiakang, Deng Hao, Cao Xiong, He Shijie, Zhuang Hong and others to discuss the establishment of Zhenming Military Academy.

Lin Feng invited several people to sit down, picked up the blue and white porcelain teacup and took a sip before saying: "We are calling everyone here today mainly to discuss the preparations for the establishment of Zhenming Military Academy.

The full name of Zhenming Military Academy is Zhenming Military Academy. As the name suggests, it is the school where I train Zhenming Military Officers. As our Zhenming Army continues to expand, the demand for grassroots officers is increasing, and it is very urgent to speed up the training of grassroots officers. "

"What your Excellency has said is true. Our Second Mobile Combat Brigade does not have all the companies and battalions, let alone the sentry officers and team posts below. Please establish this military academy as soon as possible to train urgently needed officers." Deng Hao is now in charge of mobile operations. The Second Brigade is having a headache with staffing junior officers.

"Let me first talk about the considerations about the military academy. The establishment of Zhenming Military Academy is naturally to cultivate grassroots officers who agree with our philosophy of Zhenming Army, are ideologically loyal, and are militarily strong.

Therefore, our schools should focus on training in both military and political aspects. It is easy for everyone to understand that military means cultivating the skills of how to organize drills, march and fight. The so-called politics is to identify with the philosophy of our Zhenming Army, cultivate the quality of loyalty, and strengthen the awareness of obeying discipline. "

"The political training that your Excellency mentioned is extremely important, otherwise the grassroots officers would not betray our Zhenming Army as soon as they encounter setbacks in battle or are tempted by the enemy." Su Shunnian interjected.

"Whether we can ensure loyalty, ideological understanding is the first priority. Only by truly agreeing with my philosophy of Zhenming Army serving the country, the people, and benefiting the people can we withstand the test of various complex situations. Don't you think so?" Lin Feng said. He said this while taking a look at the generals who had surrendered.

"What the Governor-General said is true. He abandoned his humble position and turned to the bright side because the imperial court saw no hope of benefiting the people." Zhuang Hong responded with emotion.

"Okay, I have told you the main purpose of establishing Zhenming Military Academy and the focus of training. Let's discuss the specific matters.

The first thing is to talk about the person in charge of Zhenming Military Academy. To get something done, someone must do it first. I personally serve as the principal of Zhenming Military Academy. From now on, all Zhenming officers will be my disciples. " Lin Feng said.

"When the Governor sits in the south and faces the north in the future, those Zhenming officers will all be disciples of the emperor." He Shijie flattered.

Lin Feng then glanced at the several surrendered generals. There was a hint of eagerness in their eyes, especially He Shijie who was very anxious.

"Although I am the principal of Zhenming Military Academy, I cannot have a lot of time to take charge of specific affairs, so I must have several vice-principals in charge. I am considering appointing Su Shunnian as the first vice-principal to take charge of leading the military academy. Preparations for the establishment and future political training of the military academy." Lin Feng ordered.

"Yes, my subordinates will do their best!" Su Shunnian also knew the importance of the military academy. Now that he had handed over the Jiazhou affairs, he also had time.

Lin Feng paused for a moment and continued: "Appoint He Shijie as the vice principal, responsible for the administrative affairs of the military academy, including management, logistics and other matters."

"Thank you for your trust, sir!" He Shijie happily agreed as soon as he heard that he was responsible for management and logistics, and that he still had the authority. "Finally, Zhuang Hong was appointed as the vice principal, responsible for the military training of reserve officers and cultivating and improving their military skills. Of course, the generals of the Zhenming Army will come to teach part-time and combine the skills of leading troops in actual combat." Lin Feng ordered. .

"Yes!" Zhuang Hong responded simply. Although he couldn't lead troops to fight, he still had a position.

"Zhenming Military Academy is tentatively determined to be at the same level as the various departments in the Governor's Mansion. The vice principal will pay the salary according to the treatment of the deputy principal." Lin Feng then clarified the salary.

"Thank you, sir!" He Shijie and Zhuang Hong immediately showed joy upon hearing this, while only Cao Xiong showed a look of disappointment on his face.

"Cao Qianshi, you don't have to go to the military academy to serve. Next, I will appoint you as the deputy director of the Staff Department to participate in the planning of our Zhenming Army's military operations. Of course, if you have good opinions on the construction of the military academy, you can also put forward them. "Lin Feng naturally saw Cao Xiong's loss and gave him some reassurance.

"Ah, thank you for your trust, sir!" Cao Xiong was a little confused by the sudden good news.

Now it was He Shijie and Zhuang Hong's turn to be envious, but the Governor had already been appointed, so naturally there was nothing more to say.

"Okay, the personnel appointments are basically completed. Each of you can be assigned one or two subordinate officers. They will be selected and submitted to me for approval.

Now let’s talk about the second thing, which is where Zhenming Military Academy is located. In the coming year, can you tell me what ready-made places are there in Jiazhou? Lin Feng then asked.

"The state school in Jiazhou is training reserve officers, and there is no room left. Yao Lu, the former colleague in Jiazhou, has a large courtyard with three or four entrances, which can be confiscated and used as a military school." Su Shunnian thought. Said after a while.

"Is there a yard inside where we can practice?" Lin Feng asked.

"Yes, the yard is not small."

"That's alright, the military academy will be placed over there. You hurry up and pack it up, equip it with some necessary office facilities, as well as a place for food and accommodation for reserve officers to participate in training, so that it has the conditions to start classes as soon as possible.

In addition, He Shijie took the lead in formulating relevant regulations for the management of the military academy, and Zhuang Hong and Shunnian respectively formulated the curriculum arrangements for military and political training at the military academy.

We plan each training course for one month first. We are currently mainly conducting emergency training and training a group of grassroots officers as soon as possible. In the future, we will design officer training at different levels. For example, the training content for officers with higher ranks must be more comprehensive and in-depth. "

"Understood!" the three of them said.

"I'll give you three days to complete the preparations. Now that the war is imminent, there is no time to waste. We must focus on the content that can be used immediately to set up training, and we can also improve it while training. In short, we must get the military academy up and running as soon as possible." Lin Feng explained.

"Make sure to complete the mission!" Su Shunnian took the lead and said.

Cao Xiong, He Shijie, and Zhuang Hong on the side couldn't help but sigh that the efficiency of the Zhenming Army was so high. Such a big thing was settled in half a day, and training would start in three days.

If this were in the imperial court, the question of whether to set up an officer training school would have to be discussed for a month. Even if the emperor made the decision, there would be no hope that the class would be able to start in less than three to five months due to all the wrangling.

At this time, they felt for themselves that it was not a bad thing to join the Zhenming Army this time, and maybe it could really lead to something big.

"In addition, considering the direction of Jiazhou, Sun Chuanting's Qin army is coming over. Officers at all levels will participate in defensive operations first and will not participate in training for the time being.

Lu Jun, please notify Shenmu, Fugu and the northern line of available junior officers or proposed officers to come in batches to participate in the training. "Lin Feng explained.

"Yes!" Lu Jun took the order.

"Sir, the battlefield is the best training ground for officers. I suggest that officers can be inspected and trained on the battlefield. In addition, some demoted officers can also be organized to observe the operations of the Zhenming Army so that they can become familiar with our army's operations as soon as possible." After Xiong heard that he would be appointed as the deputy chief of the Staff Department, he became enthusiastic and made suggestions.

"Deputy Chief Cao's suggestion is very good. This time we can organize the generals who have come from the imperial court to participate in the war observation. You and Lu Jun will be responsible for implementing this matter." Lin Feng said.

"Understood!" Cao Xiong responded happily when Lin Feng accepted the suggestion.

In this way, the Zhenming Military Academy, which is related to the future development of the Zhenming Army, was established.

This is also Lin Feng's consistent philosophy. Do what needs to be done beforehand, and then perfect it while doing it. What bothers him the most is the tendency of the ink to remain silent for a long time. (End of chapter)
