Chapter 1865 Suitable candidate

Even if one is willing to teach and the other wants to learn, it will not be as simple as the North Koreans think to truly master the technology of manufacturing advanced weapons and equipment. There are specialties in the art, and even generals like Wang Tom and Qian Tiandun are not familiar with weapons.

The level of understanding of the manufacturing process may not be as good as that of a naturalized technician at the Tiandu Arsenal. And the skills mastered by such professional technicians are only one or one of several links in the weapon manufacturing process. If you want to start from scratch.

In order to fully learn the manufacturing technology of guns, you have to start from the basic mathematics and physics, and it will be difficult to achieve success in ten or eight years.

If you want to be solely responsible for the manufacture or even design of a certain weapon, only a few people like Bai Kesi and others in the Haihan Group can do this kind of high-level talent. Even the few apprentices they have taught carefully for many years are still far from this level.

Very far. If you are a foreign student, it would be great if you can spend a few years to understand the manufacturing process, but the equipment and methods for manufacturing and processing weapons cannot be copied back to your country. So although the North Korean prince's wish is good, objectively speaking

It is basically impossible to achieve this. They may be able to spend a few years learning some relatively simple weapon manufacturing techniques, but if they want to use this to improve their country's military strength, they may not be able to achieve the results they expected.

Of course, neither Wang Tom nor Qian Tiandun would take the initiative to reveal the inside story to the North Koreans at this time, and even if they did, the other party might not believe it. Instead, they might think it was a deliberate shirk and did not want to tell them.

An excuse for such professional skills. Since the North Korean princes are interested in this, this project can be used to attract them to study abroad in Haihan.

In the case where King Li Jie has not clearly stated his attitude towards studying abroad, the subjective will of the North Korean prince is undoubtedly particularly important among the factors that contributed to this matter. As long as he can be interested in studying abroad, let alone weapons manufacturing,

Even if they wanted to learn how to build trains and ships, Wang Tom would agree first.

After hearing Wang Tom's affirmative statement, Li Shu and Li Hao were also quite moved. As princes, they have been used to hearing all kinds of praise since they were young, including many praises for being smart. These horses

They have heard so much nonsense that they consider themselves to be talented in running the country and benefiting the world, but they have never found the opportunity to show their talents.

The Qing army has relied on force to oppress North Korea for many years. The North Korean government and the public have been looking for ways to make the country stronger. Now after hearing General Haihan's words, the two princes seemed to have found an answer that suited them at this moment. Although they did not understand

With martial arts, you cannot go into battle to kill the enemy in person, but if you can learn advanced weapons manufacturing technology from Haihan Kingdom, you can also strengthen your country's military strength, so that the Korean army can fight against the Qing army, even like

The Haihan Army gave him a head-on attack.

As for whether they can truly learn Haihan's skills and how many years it will take, they have not considered these issues yet. General Haihan has said that they are suitable to learn this, is there anything else that needs to be questioned?

Li Bo immediately expressed his attitude: "After returning to Seoul, I will immediately go to see my father and inform him about studying abroad."

Li Hao also echoed: "This matter should be done sooner rather than later. The sooner the better!"

However, Jin Sangxian poured cold water on the two of them rudely: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the King has already considered this matter, so there is no need for you to rush it. When the time comes, there will be corresponding arrangements."

After hearing this, Wang Tom confirmed two things. First, Li Zhu was still waiting to see the proposal of sending the prince to study abroad, and had not made a final decision; second, Li Zhu had discussed the matter with his two sons.

There was not much communication. As for whether it was the selection of candidates or other issues that kept Lee Seo from making a decision, we cannot expect Kim Sang-hyun to reveal it on his own initiative at the moment. The answer is still unknown.

However, this is a normal thing in an emperor's family. Li Zhu is only in his forties and in his prime. As long as he takes good care of himself, it is normal for him to sit in the position of king for more than ten or twenty years. And how to arrange it during this period.

Taking good care of one's successor plays an extremely important role in maintaining the stability and development of the country. Li Zhu's caution in this regard is completely understandable.

It was not appropriate to discuss this topic at this time, so Wang Tom took the initiative to draw the attention of North Koreans back to the competition: "We will also provide students who win this competition with opportunities to study abroad for further study.

Only those who play these games have the opportunity to go to the Advanced Military Academy in Sanya to systematically learn military skills and related knowledge. When they return from their studies, they will surely become outstanding generals and enhance your country's military strength."

Regarding the selection of outstanding soldiers to study in Haihan Kingdom, North Korea is happy to see the success. Li Zhu even agreed to it when Haihan first proposed this suggestion, but only asked Haihan to refer to North Korea when making selections.

Candidates provided by the party - as the ruler of North Korea, after all, you have to recruit some of your own people who know the inside and out to be at ease.

Shen Jingzhen, the military judge, also supported this matter. Although he was a civil servant, after this war against the Qing Dynasty, he also realized that force is the foundation for whether a country can straighten its backbone, and it must be created for the army.

It is necessary to create an environment that enhances strength. Although the Datongjiang base can also complete the task of military training, after all, it is just a military base hastily built within a few months. The professionalism in training is far from that of Haihan.

Compared with domestic military academies.

Moreover, Shen Jingzhen had communicated with generals from other countries in the coalition some time ago and learned that almost all of these generals, without exception, had gone to military academies in Sanya to study abroad. According to them, the training conditions at the Datong River base were really crude, and

There are no corresponding professional courses, and all the North Korean soldiers trained here can learn is just the superficial knowledge of Haihan military. If you want to learn the real skills, you have to go to Sanya.

Although studying abroad is expensive, this move is related to the future of North Korea's new army. Shen Jingzhen can only bite the bullet and squeeze out of the limited military budget to make this plan for officers to study abroad possible.

Of course, as the head of the North Korean military, Shen Jingzhen is not completely selfish in promoting this matter. His nephew is currently receiving military training from Haihan at the Datong River base, and is already on the finalized list of studying abroad. If there is no

Unexpectedly, he will definitely be one of the candidates sent by the government to study in Haihan Kingdom. After completing his studies and returning to China, Shen Jingzhen will do some more activities here to find a good position for his nephew in the new army, and his future career will be much smoother.

Shen Jingzhen didn't think there was anything wrong with this. After all, he was not the only senior military official with similar plans and arrangements, including the counselors, counselors, and counselors of the Bingcao Yamen, as well as the fifth military camp, the third inner hall, the training academy, and the Hu

The general managers, supervisors, promotions, generals, etc. in military agencies such as the Wei Department, Zhenfu Camp, Longhu Camp, etc., whoever had the authority to recruit people into the new army, almost never missed this opportunity.

His close subordinates or nephews and descendants in the military were sent to the Datong River base for training.

Senior military attaches all know that the New Army will be the main development target of the military in the next few years. If you can find an official position in the New Army, you will naturally have excellent development prospects in the future. However, most of these senior officials are no longer young.

It is also not in line with the range of young and strong officers set by Haihan, otherwise many people may choose to go out on their own. But now we can only do the next best thing and select people close to us to participate in this training, hoping to continue it in the military in the future.

own influence.

Of course, these people who have been recruited through various channels may not be included in the predetermined study abroad list as early as Shen Jingzhen's nephew. Most of them can only compete with ordinary officers like Ando Shi for limited study abroad opportunities.

quota. If you do not perform well here, you will at best be an ordinary officer in the new army. In the future, you will slowly climb up the ranks based on your military merit. You will not be able to get as high a starting point as your colleagues studying abroad.

The important reference for selecting candidates to study abroad from among 2,000 people is this competition. There are ten items in total, and the top five officers with the final total score will be included in the list of students studying abroad.

The little-known Andao Shi finally won the honor of first place in the competition. Haihan specially made a commemorative medal in advance for this purpose. Qian Tiandun awarded it on the spot and announced that he was automatically qualified to study abroad. And this turned out to be unexpected.

The newly born newcomer also attracted the interest of the two princes. After the award ceremony, Ando Shi was summoned together with several other officers who performed outstandingly in the competition.

Li Bo's intention to summon these young officers is also very clear. As the future ruler of the kingdom, he has now established connections with these future generals in the military, which will be beneficial to consolidating his future status. And maybe he will also

If you go to the capital of Haihan to study abroad, you will definitely have to take care of each other with these soldiers in a foreign country.

"You are all the pillars of our country. On behalf of my father, I will first reward each of you with twenty acres of fertile land and one hundred taels of silver. I hope that you will continue to work hard and acquire good skills when you come to Haihan in the future, so that our country can

We will have a truly strong army as soon as possible!" Li Bo immediately offered rewards to win people's hearts, but with ministers around, he did not dare to attribute the origin of these rewards to himself.

"Thank you, King, for the reward from the Crown Prince!" An Daoshi and others quickly knelt down and thanked them.

Li Ming was very satisfied with the respect shown by these soldiers, and then said: "I have just seen your performance. From now on, the task of leading troops to fight in North Korea will fall on your shoulders. An Daoshi, I heard that you are

Born in Ping An Dao?"

Andao Shi quickly responded: "The humble position comes from Ping An Road. My father has no education, so when he named it, he also used the word "Andao", which means a stone on Ping An Road."

"What a stone on the safe road!" Li Bo nodded and said: "Since you are the first place in this competition, and then you will go to Haihan capital to study on behalf of our country, I will give you the first prize in Jiangwu in Datong.

I hope that after you return from your studies, you can really become a solid rock that protects the security of our country!"

An Daoshi quickly kowtowed again and thanked Li Bo for this special reward. Although this martial arts competition was not an imperial examination, An Daoshi, as a leader in the Korean army, was indeed as strong as the top military scholar.

, the title given by Li Ming is quite appropriate.

Seeing that the Crown Prince of Joseon admired Andoseok so much, Wang Tom and Qian Tiandun also showed expressions of relief. Of course, they knew the situation of Andoseok very well. Takahashi Minami came forward to reach a private agreement with Andoseok and others. It was originally their intention

.Officers with civilian backgrounds like Ando-seok are considered very suitable candidates for training. If he wins the favor of the Crown Prince of Joseon with his outstanding performance, this will add insurance to Ando-seok's future development.

From another perspective, it proves that their vision in selecting people is indeed not bad.

In the evening of the same day, these outstanding North Korean soldiers were also temporarily lifted from the ban and participated in the banquet hosted by Haihan. Of course, the main guests of the banquet were not them, but the two North Korean princes and several accompanying ministers. It was possible for these important figures to stand in front of the banquet.

Having a strong presence in front of them was their biggest gain from participating in this banquet.

According to the itinerary, Li Pu and Li Hao were supposed to return to Seoul after the competition. However, under the warm invitation of Wang Tom and Qian Tiandun, they temporarily decided to change their itinerary and stay at the Datong River base for a few more days.

Visit the daily training of the Haihan Army, and then take the Haihan battleship back south to Seoul.

If the two princes did not leave, the three ministers who were accompanying the guests naturally had no choice but to stay. Although Kim Sang-hyun felt that the performance of the Haihan people was a bit of an excuse, he did not object to changing the itinerary. He himself had been at the Datong River base earlier.

After staying for two or three months, I can naturally understand the curiosity of the two princes after seeing all the new things here. It is also reasonable for them not to leave immediately. The only question is how to persuade the king to decide to study abroad after returning.

Kim Sang-hyun has not yet made up his mind as the candidate.

As Haihan believes, Li Zhu has not made a clear statement on studying abroad. The main reason is that the selection problem has troubled him. If the first and second-ranked heirs are sent abroad to study abroad for a long time, this will

Obviously this is not a proper arrangement. At least one of them must stay in the country in case of emergencies. But in this case, who is more suitable to send to Haihan to study abroad becomes a difficult multiple-choice question.

The eldest brother, Li Pu, is seven years older than the second brother, Li Hao. He was named Crown Prince twelve years ago. He is more mature in handling political affairs and diplomatic relations, and is more suitable for such a diplomatic mission. Moreover, he went to Haihan

It will definitely be beneficial for him to govern the country in the future by seeing the world in the capital and learning the political experience of other countries. However, the second eldest son, Li Hao, is closer to Li Hao, and Li Hao also believes that Li Hao's thoughts and character are more similar to his own.

Because they are similar and have a smarter mind than the eldest brother, if you have the opportunity to send the second child out, you may be able to learn more useful knowledge.
