Rise of the Argentine Empire

#253 - La Pampa Military Academy

The La Pampa Military Academy, officially the La Pampa Army Military Academy.

In the suburbs of the Ahirrich district, a brand-new military school rose from the ground.

As the president of the academy, Saint-Hesse gave a speech at the opening ceremony of the military academy, giving them their first lesson.

He looked at this group of student soldiers, selected as one in ten, full of energy.

“First of all, congratulations to everyone for successfully passing the entrance exam to the La Pampa Military Academy. This was not easy. Each of you has defeated at least 10 competitors. Next, you will undergo 4 years of study.”

“Although our province is still very difficult, it is also developing very quickly, and protecting the lives and property of the people of La Pampa Province is the glorious mission of our La Pampa Provincial Defense Force…”

The first class of the La Pampa Military Academy enrolled 300 students, after rigorous cultural level examinations and military skills physical fitness tests.

Meeting the basic requirements was not easy:

1. Age must not exceed 20 years old, height above 1.65m, with regular facial features,

2. Naked eye vision must reach 4.6 or above,

3. Saint-Hesse organized a dual structured interview of military officers and civil officials.

Some items were even stricter than the civil servant examination in Blanca City.

However, judging from the announced benefits, it was far better than the National University of the South. The fact that there was no tuition fee and that one could become a formal military officer upon passing the graduation exam attracted many young people to participate in the exam.

Saint-Hesse had already prepared a 3,000-strong defense force, most of whom came from the Blanca City Armed Police Force, with rich experience, new and old helping each other.

The New Youth League, which Saint-Hesse founded at the University of Buenos Aires, also played a role.

A group of young military officers from the Argentine National Defense Military Academy joined the La Pampa Military Academy, enriching the faculty here.

The defense force launched a large-scale reorganization and training.

Completed the development of the first 3 regiments of 4,500 people.

Saint-Hesse unscrupulously started to build it up.

Not hesitating to put in the remaining core forces of the Thunder Cross and the Blue Delta.

The Thunder Cross and the Blue Delta officially withdrew from the stage of history, and some were reorganized into the combat department of the Falcon Bureau.

They became the Oran City Police Department, the Blanca City Police Department, the San Ma City Police, and other institutions.

Saint-Hesse also figured it out.

Even the most powerful security company cannot compare to a regular army.

He felt ashamed of his previous naive ideas.

Fortunately, there were still lessons learned.

Blanca City has changed from "White Harbor" to "Golden City".

Public security issues are also stimulating Saint-Hesse's nerves.

Not to mention that the population of a city has increased from 100,000 to 500,000 in more than a year, which is a miracle in any era.

The Alta district has become the most chaotic area in terms of public security, even though the number of police officers in the Alta district has increased to 600.

The number of police officers in Blanca City has increased to 4,000, but it is still far from enough, because the actual managed population may have approached 600,000. Saint-Hesse accepted everyone and did not conduct a large-scale census.

In April, the number of newly opened small factories in the outer Alta district reached 160, which is more than all other districts combined.

Now making money in Blanca City is like robbing money.

The public security in the core urban area of Blanca City is better, but outside the urban area, in the outer urban area, danger can be encountered anywhere.

With Saint-Hesse's intentional indulgence, robbery, theft, or extortion, and even arson and murder, are very common. This is also the necessity of Saint-Hesse's proposal to establish a defense force.

If you want people, you cannot establish a very strict population review system, otherwise no one will come.

On the surface, all the laws in Blanca City are the strictest.

However, the implementation plan is tight on the outside and loose on the inside, otherwise it will not be able to rob other cities.

Even before your annual sales exceed 500,000 US dollars, no one will ask you to pay taxes. As for the tax police, they are aimed at large enterprises and large factories.

Pigs must also be fattened before they can be slaughtered.

The outbreak of public security problems means that there are not enough police officers here.

Blanca City has not conducted a proper large-scale census. The number of unregistered residents inside is likely to approach 100,000, in addition to regular immigrants, there are also smuggled Chilean farmers, and even scattered Colombians.

Now the Colombian military government is extremely brutal, and the population loss is serious. The rich go to the United States, and the poor immigrate to Brazil and Argentina.

Now the safest area may be the Ahirrich district.

What East District and West District, public security has also deteriorated in the short term.

Saint-Hesse took the opportunity to propose the establishment of the La Pampa Defense Force, which is logical.

He is already blatantly opening up to foreign immigrants, completely ignoring the warnings of the Argentine Immigration Bureau.

Damn it, Cordoba Province now has an army, and La Pampa Province also has one. If you don't agree, arm yourself, who is afraid of whom.

Saint-Hesse did not say anything about the nationalization of Rhein Military Industries by the hawkish faction, but he still hated it in his heart.

Developing to the end, 5-10 immigrant ships arrive in Blanca City every week.

Most of these people are diverted to the Alta district to meet the employment needs of factories.

In order to meet the remittance business of new immigrant workers, Saint-Hesse let Plari International establish Plari International Bank, specializing in providing international remittances for foreign workers to attract foreigners to join.

After all, everyone goes to work in other countries, so they must want money. It is useless to receive a bunch of pesos and go home.

Anyway, the Andes Cigarette Factory has a large amount of foreign exchange, and it is also very convenient to exchange it into Chilean pesos and the like.

Attracting them to immigrate and settle down is another matter. The interests of unregistered residents are difficult to guarantee, so the role of the Blanca City Police Department is reflected.

Joining Argentine nationality can enjoy legal rights and be protected, and only need to go to the Blanca City Police Department for legal registration, swear to join, and you can be whitewashed and transferred to full-time, and immigrate as a family, you can also get 3 months of minimum living security subsidies.

Basically, many foreigners in Blanca City directly become Argentines, that's how it works.

He doesn't care about anything.

Even so, most people are unwilling to naturalize. They just come to make money, and Saint-Hesse does not object to this, so that the economy can be developed quickly, so Blanca City has become the place with the most unregistered residents in Argentina.

Saint-Hesse changed more than 30 passenger ships from the 2,200-ton fishing boats produced by the Sanhai Shipyard, basically one ship can carry 500 people.

He unscrupulously increased the population. If there is no one in the country, he will attract people from foreign countries. Anyway, they all speak Spanish, and there is no communication barrier or anything like that.

Since Sanhai Shipyard established a dock in Blanca City, it has begun to frantically produce freighters and passenger ships, squeezing the value of retired freighters and passenger ships.

A 20,000-ton large passenger ship is also ready to be launched.

A 50,000-ton giant freighter is also under research.

With the support of large-scale orders at home and abroad, the development of Sanhai Shipyard is getting better and better. In order to alleviate the problem of the lack of shipbuilding talents, Saint-Hesse is preparing to establish a Blanca City Maritime Vocational School. Too much education funding is not a good thing.

A large amount of high-quality steel is transported here and turned into large ships. Sanhai Shipyard is the largest employer in the Alta district and also the trump card of the Alta district.

There are more than 30 supporting suppliers surrounding the shipyard. Shipbuilding is a labor, capital, and technology-intensive industry, which has a strong driving effect on the development of upstream and downstream industries such as mechanical and electrical, steel, chemical, shipping, and marine resource exploration, and is of great significance for promoting labor employment, developing export trade, and ensuring national defense security.

And the supporting factories of the automobile factory are also largely set up in the Alta district, such as the Blanca City Sean Glass Factory, with a factory area of more than 100,000 square meters, providing tempered glass for both the shipyard and the automobile factory, and also producing building glass, with more than 2,000 workers.

The building materials industry in the Alta district has developed rapidly. There are more than 300 large and small building materials factories, which have made a lot of money during the large-scale infrastructure housing construction in Blanca City.

Many people are still entering the building materials industry, such as cement production, tiles, red bricks, and daily-use ceramics.

There is also the wire industry. Maya Chemical provides raw materials, and there are many factories that produce water pipes, etc. With the large-scale production of the Pachón Copper Mine, the input of copper has also led to the emergence of some local wire factories.

And the clothing industry also has supporting button factories, woolen yarn factories, zipper factories, and other factories, and there are quite a few of them.

The Alta district also has a clothing industry. Because of the fierce competition, some people have flexible minds. Gradually, there are underwear processing factories everywhere in the Alta district.

In the Alta district, the large underwear factories have hundreds of employees, and the small ones only work by themselves. The sound of sewing machines "da da da da" rings from morning to night.

Build a few factory sheds, set up a few machines, and it is a factory.

This is also the reason for the wild growth of Blanca City. Compared with the strictness of the central urban area, this place is growing arbitrarily.
