On the way to the military academy, Xu Qingfeng asked them about the situation in the Boy Military Academy. The few of them found it strange, but they answered him one by one.
The establishment of the Boy Scout Military Academy was due to the disappointment of a young master from a merchant family towards the corruption of the Qing Dynasty. In addition, he knew that Japan trained their children to join the army from a young age, and that foreign countries had already established Boy Scouts. Therefore, he wanted to place the future of China on the children.
In the last few years after the fall of the Qing government, the young master of the Yan family read a lot of foreign books about the boy scouts. During this period, he also cooperated with the church to save a large number of people.
On the 25th day of the second month of the year the Republic of China was founded, his 60-man Boy Scouts were also established. He wanted the children of China to learn from the young people of the world to make the country rich and strong and free from poverty. All children and young people above the age of 12 who were willing to join this great group, regardless of whether they were rich or poor, regardless of class, and there was no racial or religious discrimination, as long as you were willing, you could join this Boy Scouts.
However, as time passed, the Boy Scouts had won a lot of achievements and medals in the World Games. In 1921, the Chinese Scouts participated in the second International Scout Jamboree and got fifth place in the total score. Their reputation immediately spread throughout the country.
After that, the whole country promoted the participation of the Boy Scouts, and the number grew exponentially. By the 13th year of the Republic of China, the number of Boy Scouts in the country had reached hundreds of thousands, and it was still growing.
This also made the National Government pay attention to it. At the 12th meeting of the Second Central Standing Committee of the National Party, it passed the proposal of organizing the "Chinese National Party Boy Scouts" and proposed that the GMDT be responsible for the education of the national Boy Scouts.
The GCD also participated in this meeting, but the voices expressed were almost negligible, because the establishment of the GCD was only a short three years ago, and the number of party members was not much. This was also the first cooperation between the two countries, and it was in the honeymoon stage.
In 1917, the National Government stipulated that all primary school students from the third grade would officially become child soldiers and participate in military training.
After their establishment, not only did they have the same uniform, but they also implemented the same military-style training. Most of the instructors were graduates of Huangpu Military School and instructors of the National Sports School. At this time, there were many martial arts experts in the Republic of China. The instructors of the students were naturally martial arts experts and folk martial arts masters.
In 1928, the Chinese GMDT's Boy Scouts Command was changed to the Chinese Boy Scouts Command, which was directly under the control of the Central Executive Committee of the National Party. He Yingqin, the head of the Central Training Department, was the commander-in-chief. In 1929, the Boy Scouts General Assembly appointed Jiang Jieshi as the president, Dai Jitao and He Yingqin as the vice presidents, and nine preparatory committee members were set up to be responsible for the preparatory work. The next year, the preparatory department expanded its organization, with Dai Jitao as the director, Zhu Jiahua and Zhang Zhizhong as the deputy directors, handling all preparations.
According to the organization law of the Boy Scouts, the Chinese Boy Scouts were divided into Cub Scouts (8 - 11 years old), Boy Scouts (12 - 18 years old), Youth Scouts (18 years old and above), and Girl Scouts. Generally, there were four to nine people in a small group.
The curriculum of the Boy Scouts consisted of primary, intermediate, and senior courses. The primary courses included ten types of Boy Scouting History, Knot Rope, Etiquette, Training, and Health. The intermediate courses included fourteen types of Service, Direction, Boy Scouting Steps, Flag Language, Scouting, Firemaking, Ambulance, Cooking, and Camping. The advanced courses included fifteen types of signals, measurement, cartography, travel, and swimming.
Most of the situation was now understood, and the car had arrived at the destination. Xu Qingfeng looked up at the surrounding situation. The car he was in was not heading to the military academy, but to the National Central University Affiliated High School.
"No, why are you in middle school? Shouldn't we go to the Central Army Military Academy?”Xu Qingfeng asked in confusion.
The warrant officer explained," You can only apply for the military academy when you're over eighteen years old. You can apply as long as you graduate here. Don't look down on the fact that this is just a middle school. This is also the school of your Boy Scouts. The person who asked us to bring you here is Deputy Director Zhang. If you have any questions, you can ask him yourself later.”
"Are you talking about Zhang Zhizhong?" "Isn't he the dean of the military academy?" Xu Qingfeng asked in surprise.”
"He's the head of education and also your current Deputy Director Zhang!”
After the warrant officer finished speaking, the vehicle arrived at the school's sports field. At this moment, there were already hundreds of students in boy uniforms standing on the sports field. There were also more than ten adults standing among the students.
There were three middle-aged men sitting on the leader's platform. He knew one of them. It was Zhang Zhizhong, whom he had met yesterday. He did not know who the other two were. Behind them were guards with real guns and bullets.
The warrant officer jogged over and saluted the three people who had already stood up on the platform. Then, he reported that he had completed his mission and was now back to report. He also brought Xu Qingfeng.
Deputy Director Zhang asked him to leave and then waved at Xu Qingfeng. Xu Qingfeng only hesitated for a moment before he jogged up the stage and raised three fingers in salute."Boy Scout Xu Qingfeng is here to report for duty.”
Zhang Zhizhong smiled at him and told him not to be so nervous. Then, he introduced him,""Let me introduce you. This is He Jingzhi, the vice president and commander-in-chief of the Chinese Boy Scouts Main Guild. This is Coach Sun Yuming from the Central Martial Arts Academy!”
Xu Qingfeng did not know what to say, so he could only give them a finger salute to show his respect.
The two of them said that he was still embarrassed and told him not to be too nervous. Then, he heard He Yingqin say,"The fact that you're in a hurry to return to the team after recovering proves that you have a sense of responsibility as a soldier in your heart. I'm very gratified, and President Jiang is also very happy. That's why he specially ordered me to come over and give you the medal of honor that you deserve!”
"Thank you, President, for your nurturing. I will definitely continue to work hard to raise the prestige of our country and let our child scouts obtain more glory!”Xu Qingfeng flattered helplessly.
His words made He Yingqin feel rather awkward. He had never heard anyone say this before, but he didn't blame him. After all, it was inevitable for everyone to be like this when they first received a medal. He didn't pay much attention to these things. When the person brought the medal, certificate, and student ID over, he immediately hung them on his body.
Xu Qingfeng gave him a thumbs-up salute, and He Yingqin gave him a certificate, certificate, and student ID, asking him to keep up the good work. After he saluted again, Coach Sun came over and said that it was rare, then asked directly,""I can see that your bones are exquisite and are suitable for martial arts. I wonder if you are willing to take me as your master?”
Xu Qingfeng almost fell. This sentence felt so familiar.
Deputy Director Zhang and Vice President He both laughed and told him to wait until the welcome party was over before he accepted a disciple. Then, Deputy Director Zhang said to him,"Now, it's up to you to communicate with your classmates about what happened on the battlefield!”
After he finished speaking, he told the students to welcome him and applaud him to encourage him.
Xu Qingfeng was chased away. He turned around and saluted the crowd with his finger raised. He paused again and said,"To be honest, I really don't know what to say. Let me just say this. When the enemy invades, if someone thinks that they are a captive or that they are running away, then what awaits everyone is that if you surrender, you will be used as a target by the enemy to practice your bayonet. If you run away, you will only be used as a target by the enemy to practice your marksmanship. If you pretend to be dead, you will be killed by the enemy!”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately replied,"Then according to what you said, wouldn't we die on the battlefield anyway?”
As soon as he said that, the others began to whisper.
Glancing at it, Xu Qingfeng replied loudly,""If you don't go to the battlefield, you'll die faster. Being a slave to a conquered country is even worse than being a pig. The only way was to pick up the weapons in their hands. Even if they had no weapons, they could not surrender to the enemy. I'm talking about foreign enemies. For example, the Japanese devils who occupied the three eastern provinces and launched the Battle of Songhu. They want our country to be destroyed, so I have to bite off a piece of their meat even if I have only my teeth left.”
He Yingqin was prepared to stop him from speaking, but he heard him change the topic and ask,"I really want to sing a military song. Do you guys know how to sing a military song? Sing the military song that you are familiar with. I will sing with you. Can you teach me how to sing?”
Everyone agreed. Someone suggested,"Since we're going to sing a military song, then let's sing our 'Chinese Boy Scouts' military song!”When everyone agreed, he started singing,"The Heavenly Kingdom's Child Scouts, us! Us! We are the new life of the Chinese nation. Although we are young, we have true ambition. We offer our bodies, our hearts, and our strength to the people. We are loyal, filial, benevolent, faithful, and peaceful. We enrich the spirit of our actions. Everyone is united and moves forward! Forward! Forward! The sky is high, and the sun is bright!"
Her temperament was high and her voice was deafening. The three people on the stage had already sung with the highest respect. Although Xu Qingfeng did not know how to sing, he could still hum and move his lips!
After the singing, He Yingqin and Zhang Zhizhong exchanged a few words with the students and the teacher standing with the students. Then, they left with Instructor Sun. When they left, Instructor Sun told Xu Qingfeng about the matter of accepting a disciple and asked him to consider it as soon as possible.
Xu Qingfeng simply replied that he would consider it. Then, he stood on the leader's platform and was suddenly dumbfounded. No one told him who he wanted to learn from.
However, he didn't have to wait for long before the dozen or so adults came up from below. One of the older ones introduced himself to him, saying that he was the principal of The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China, Guo Hong. The others also introduced themselves. There was a school dean (similar to the dean) called Gui Chong, the dean called Liu Guang, and a dozen or so teachers. There were also martial arts instructors (including physical education) sent by the Central Martial Arts Academy, as well as political and military instructors.
After getting to know all of them, the principal went back to the podium and talked some nonsense. Then, he asked the teachers of each class to bring their students back. Xu Qingfeng was assigned to high school class 104.
