In this era, there are probably not a few people who know the name of Whampoa Military Academy. This is because many famous and world-famous generals came out of it. They made immortal contributions to fight against the Japanese aggressors and liberate the whole of China. And the Hainan Army has always been because of
The low and mid-level officers have resulted in unsatisfactory combat effectiveness, so it is urgent to establish a military school belonging to the Hainan Army.
In the early morning of the 22nd, Li Weidong drove to Haikou with some senior officers to attend the opening ceremony of the new military academy. Twenty miles south of Haikou City, there was originally an abandoned barracks. In the early Republic of China, due to the melee between warlords from various places, this place was
was abandoned.
Then in mid-December last year, the staff of the Military Academy Coordinating Committee of the General Headquarters selected this area and organized manpower to clean up the weeds here. After more than two months of intense construction, overcoming obstacles, paving roads and building houses, the former
The overgrown ruins take on a new look.
In fact, as early as last winter during the North Vietnam War, Li Weidong had already felt that the quality of the low-level and mid-level officers in the Hainan Army was generally low. There was a generation gap in commanding operations, and they would not cooperate when the troops charged. Therefore, it was passed within the government meeting.
A proposal to "establish an Army Lecture Hall" and name it "Nanyang Army Non-commissioned Officer School".
At the beginning of January, when the establishment of the military academy was still under construction, Li Weidong organized the establishment of the Military Academy Coordinating Committee of the General Headquarters and designated the site of the original military camp as the new school site. The school was referred to as "Nanjun Academy".
When the school was first established, it was expanded using the original land and requisitioning adjacent land. The military school is divided into four parts: the main headquarters, the branch branch (including the training ground), the large playground and the shooting range. The main part of the school is in the center, covering an area of 180
Yu Mu, its architectural style is built after the German Army School, and combined with Chinese architectural elements, it is a building complex with marble, red bricks and cement as the main body.
After arriving and taking a short rest, Li Weidong, accompanied by Wang Yunwen, director of the teaching department, and Xu Shiqing, director of the training department, inspected the school's lecture halls, student dormitories, and browsed the teacher and student rosters and professor plans.
The campus is surrounded by tall cement-carved brick walls, and outside the wall is a small river surrounding it. The school gate is eight meters high, and the entrance and exit are divided into one large and two small gates. Its majestic appearance can be compared with the courtyard gate of the Hainan Military and Military Building.
The lintel is engraved with six large black characters of "Nanyang Army Non-commissioned Officer School". As soon as you enter the school gate, you will see a tall screen wall with the school motto "Duty, Honor, Country" written on it.
The North Campus of the Military Academy is the living area, and now houses about 2,000 cultural students who were transferred back and recruited from the army. The South Campus is the center and teaching area of the Military Academy, and is divided into East, Middle, West and Three Campuses. East,
The West Campus is divided into classrooms and training grounds. In the middle is the teaching center of the college, where the principal’s office and teaching office are located. In the middle of the corridor is a corridor with symmetrical classrooms and offices on both sides. [In fact, Xiao Yi is not sure about the layout of the military academy in reality.
This layout is modeled after that of our middle school. It’s pretty much what the school should have!]
The vast school grounds also face north and south, surrounded by stone railings. The layout is square and rigorous, and it is majestic and majestic. Directly north of the school grounds is a swearing-in platform, with banners hanging on both sides, "If you get promoted and make a fortune, look for another place; be greedy for life and afraid of death.
Don’t enter this door!”
The main function of this military school is to train junior officers for the army. The teaching content and teaching methods are formulated with reference to German and American military education and combined with the actual situation on the battlefield. The two-year semester is shortened to three months.
.
After visiting the layout of the military academy, Li Weidong asked about some tutorials on subjects studied in the military academy, and also had a preliminary understanding of the military academy in the system.
The subjects are divided into five subjects: armor, infantry, artillery, engineering, and baggage. The academy regulations refer to the German Army Non-Commissioned Officer School, and the instructors are also non-commissioned officer graduates who have returned from studying in Germany.
Military academy non-commissioned officers are organized according to military ranks, with squads as units, and the captain is a lieutenant. They serve as life management and technical instructors of the military department, while the military instructors are major instructors.
Technical courses include hand-to-hand combat, military gymnastics, and college academics, etc., and are conducted by technical instructors [current army officers], and there are also technical assistants to assist in technical training.
The time reached half past nine without realizing it, and all the instructors and students of the military academy gathered on the playground. The opening ceremony of Nanjun Academy officially began.
Li Weidong is also the honorary principal of Nanjun Academy, so he personally presided over the opening ceremony. Then he bowed three times to the national flag, the school flag, and the photo of Premier Sun Yat-sen.
"Classmates! You are gathered here today because the country needs you and our nation is in a critical situation. So I hope that every student here can study hard for the rise of the motherland!" Standing
On the training platform, Li Weidong took the lead in delivering an impassioned speech.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Ming, representative of the Central Committee, expressed congratulations on behalf of the Nanjing government and issued a solemn call to the teachers and students of the military academy to "save China from danger."
Then, Li Weidong listened to several classroom education sessions at the military school. In addition to military tactics, weapons, surveying and mapping, fortification and military orders, the courses also included new detailed subjects such as physics, chemistry, mathematics, history, and geography. Each session
The class lasts about half an hour.
There are also general knowledge and foreign language auxiliary subjects in the college, and civilian teachers are hired to teach the current officers who have been transferred back from the battlefield for further studies. A large part of them are former soldiers and have sufficient combat experience, but they are illiterate.
First, cultivate their cultural knowledge, and then gradually and comprehensively learn various military training preparation conditions. Before actual combat training, they first conduct various standard training on the playground, and then proceed to various actual combat exercises.
Compared with the cultural and technical training subjects, field exercises are relatively simple. First, move from simple to complex and conduct regular field exercises, and then gradually enter comprehensive sea, land and air coordinated exercises.
There is a shooting range for live ammunition shooting, a large playground for driving training, a gun range for artillery training, and a civil engineering field and a bridge-building field for engineers. Blasting exercises choose places that will not cause harm.
At noon, Li Weidong took people to visit the school canteen, and gathered the students for a dinner. Before leaving, he also emphasized the nutritional issues in the canteen.
After leaving the military academy, Li Weidong went to the Tianming Base without stopping and ordered the construction of new military construction units. The tanks were very popular in the last battle and showed the power of the battle, so I have to plan to expand the tank regiment as much as possible.
ability.
When Li Weidong, who had a busy day at night, dragged himself back to the mansion, he fell asleep on the bed without noticing Zhang Xiaoyou who was busy in the kitchen.
