After a round of fighting, the hotpot battle was over.
Zu Long also burped from eating. The young girl Wang Yan, who was sitting at the side, also burped ungracefully.
"Oh right, Zhao Ye, I heard you talk about the military academy a few days ago. It's quite interesting. What do you think? Tell me!”
After the meal, Brother Zheng remembered the important matter.
Zhao Ye was excited when he heard that. Brother Zheng was indeed Brother Zheng.
He was just arguing with Wang Jian one day. He casually mentioned it, but he did not expect the Ancestral Dragon to remember it.
"I am also thinking that these old generals are all experienced in the battlefield. Even if they are unable to fight on the battlefield because of their physical discomfort, their experience in the battlefield is still far better than those young boys.”
Zhao Ye pointed at Wang Jian and said,"For example, the old general is now training in the Lantian camp. I reckon that he will be idle in a few years. Wouldn't it be a waste to have all his experience on the battlefield?”
"I was just casually mentioning it, but after thinking about it, I thought it would be better to follow the example of Jixia Learning Palace and establish a military academy to impart experience to the new recruits on the battlefield.”
The Ancestral Dragon nodded and said," I think so too. There are many retired veterans in Great Qin, and there are also many who can't go to the battlefield because of their health. However, tell me, how should we choose these students?”
This was the biggest problem of the Ancestral Dragon.
How should the students choose?
Once this military academy was established, with so many veterans gathered, which clan would not be tempted?
How to distribute the student quota was also a big problem.
"It's the selection of students!" Zhao Ye blinked and said.
"This military school, if you want to join the army in the future, you must first have sufficient physical conditions!”
Zhao Ye thought for a moment and then said,"Then it's about your understanding of the war, right?" These questions could be set by the old generals together!”
"Of course, you also have to know how to read and write!”Zhao Ye tapped his fingers and said.
Brother Zheng frowned and asked,""Are you talking about choosing students from all of Great Qin?”
Zhao Ye looked at the Ancestral Dragon as if it was a matter of course.
"Naturally! Great Qin had a system of military merits, so it didn't make sense for the military schools to recruit all the descendants of those families, right?”
Zhao Ye stood up and said," The reason why Great Qin is stronger than the six countries is because of its military merits. The capable are above and the mediocre are below!”
Brother Zheng nodded thoughtfully and asked,"What other thoughts do you have about the military academy?”
Zhao Ye thought for a moment and said," I think that the headmaster of this military academy should be His Majesty. As for the vice headmaster, General Wang Jian is the most suitable." In addition, the rules of the military academy had to be roughly the same as the military camp. Entering the military academy was equivalent to entering the army. Those who broke the law would be severely punished!”
"In addition, those old generals who are idle at home, His Majesty can hire them to teach the students.”
"The military academy can hold a competition at regular intervals, and the results of the competition will be decided by all the teachers. Those who were outstanding would be rewarded. As for those who didn't want to improve, they could be expelled from the military academy.”
"Military schools are for the sake of selecting talents, so they can recruit special talents.
For example, if someone was poor and weak, and could not pass the physical test, but had an outstanding understanding of the battle, they could make an exception and be recruited. However, special enrollment required all the teachers to make a decision together and the principal to approve it.”
"As for literacy, it can be taught by the teachers after entering the military school. Those who can't read can be written on behalf of others during the examination, but the score will be reduced appropriately.”
"The rules for the various scores are set by all the teachers."
"Set up an invigilator to put an end to all cheating!”
Zhao Ye said slowly.
He was already doing his best to benefit the people at the bottom.
According to Zhao Ye's original thoughts, there should be a standard for reading.
However, considering that civilians did not have the opportunity to read in this era, they were taught by teachers after passing the exam.
After hearing that, Zu Long nodded thoughtfully and said,"It's not impossible."
Zhao Ye smiled and said," But Your Majesty, literacy is quite important. I think it can be included in the daily assessment of the military academy."”
Brother Zheng nodded. Of course, he knew the importance of literacy.
As a general, you should at least be able to read military books. At the very least, you should be able to understand the orders from above.
Being literate was indeed very important.
There were countless people in Great Qin who had been promoted due to their military achievements. For example, Shengqi and the others had already been promoted to Zuo Shu Chang.
Logically speaking, they should be able to command tens of thousands of troops. However, in reality, the two of them were only two to five hundred lords, which was equivalent to a thousand generals.
When Baiqi was still Zuo Shu Zhang, he could already lead a battle.
What was the problem? On one hand, it was because they were not capable enough.
On the other hand, there was also the problem of literacy.
He couldn't even understand the words, so how could he be handsome?
"If we could make education universal, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble!”Zhao Ye sighed.
