Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 176

176. Chapter 176, ‘Central Blossom’ Army

After personally experiencing the teaching level after the building system was added, Gu Hang was very satisfied.

What was directly enhanced was the teacher’s teaching level and the teaching atmosphere.

But at the same time, he believed that the efficiency improvement brought by the [Building] system had not been fully utilized.

If there were better teaching materials in the future; better teaching hardware, such as corresponding pictures and video playback to assist in the explanation during the lecture; the teacher’s level was good enough, and there was enough knowledge reserve…

All these things were available, and combined with the building system to greatly improve the teacher’s explanation level, improve the teaching atmosphere, improve the student’s concentration and other buffs, then the overall effect bonus would be more obvious.

At that level, it can be said that the one thousand points of grace that Gu Hang spent on Zhongsi College were used to the maximum extent.

For this reason, Gu Hang specially took such a whole day to talk with Mesheko, the Dean of Academic Affairs, and the vice president who rushed over, about the subsequent reform plan, and promised that the relevant teaching funds would be invested in Zhongsi College first.

In addition, Gu Hang also specifically mentioned that Zhongsi College would hold an advanced class for short-term training.

Gu Hang would personally teach a class in this advanced class.

Mesheko made a note of this.

This so-called advanced version is where Gu Hang intends to spend his grace points to train the “Company Political Commissar” as a military unit.

The system is called this and it is positioned as a military unit, but in fact, Gu Hang does not intend to use it as a training ground for military and political officers. Gu Hang will gather those who have performed well in Zhongsi College or those who need to be trained in various industries and throw them into this advanced class. At the cost of ten grace points per person, they will be trained to become “Company Political Commissars”.

After graduation, these people will return to their posts with the will of the most loyal soldiers and play an exemplary leading role.

Of course, training military and political officers is also a very important part.

Gu Hang gave a total of seventy places in the first batch.

This will cost him seven hundred grace points.

But paying this price is rewarding.

Fifty qualified political commissars will be selected from various armies. After they return, they will enter the headquarters of each division and regiment to serve as political commissars. They will be the most determined force in the army to ensure the loyalty of the legion to the governor and the morale and discipline of the army during combat.

Fifteen of the other twenty people will fall on people at all levels of government agencies. After they return, I believe they can also bring back faith, ideals, and loyalty; the other five people come from caravans, factories and other enterprises and institutions.

Their promotion speed will be faster than that of ordinary people, but the responsibilities they shoulder will also be greater than that of ordinary people.

Gu Hang is looking forward to the time when these seeds take root and sprout.

If there are not enough seeds, then cultivate a few more batches.

…

Morgan and his wife, as well as their sister Milia, were selected into the advanced class.

They are fully aware of how valuable this opportunity is.

No matter what you can learn from coming to Zhongsi College, at least this resume has become a golden signboard in the new alliance society. Not to mention, they also attended the advanced classes held from time to time and received personal instruction from the Governor.

In this way, the golden resume became even more dazzling.

Who can say that I am not loyal in the future?

What’s more, after the seven-day course, they are really more than just gilded.

Jason Morgan talked with his wife, and they both felt that they had learned a lot of very practical things.

The first and most obvious thing is military skills.

In the seven-day course, there is a part of military training. And in just a few days, they feel that they have become a qualified soldier and can fight with a gun.

This is the most obvious perception for those who have no military training experience before.

And another very important point is that they know how to boost morale, excite people, and enforce discipline.

This includes language skills, expression skills, body movements, and how to lead by example in daily life, which are principles, and which can be flexible. It is necessary to get along well with others, have deep friendships, care about others, pay attention to what others think, become friends, brothers, and people that others can rely on; but at the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to building prestige in daily life, instilling loyal beliefs and ideals in others, and being ruthless at critical moments, strictly abide by the bottom line, set an example, and use power, prestige, friendship and even v*olence, in short, do everything possible to boost morale and maintain discipline.

These knowledge are not just talk, they also understand the specific implementation methods.

To be honest, they still feel a little bit in a dream: Are we geniuses? Do we know everything after learning for seven days?

They even have some doubts about this extra part of their brains. Do these methods really work when applied in practice?

I don’t know, there is no environment for practice.

However, if this happens, then let’s try it. The Governor’s teaching can’t be wrong, right?

As for whether their own ideological awareness level has improved…

others can’t say, at least Jason Morgan feels that it’s nothing.

What is loyalty to the Governor, love for the Alliance; what is firm belief, guarantee of loyalty… I have read it ten thousand times, I already know it, this time I just read it a few more times, what special changes can there be?

Can it really make me stand up for the belief in my heart when I encounter danger, even at the cost of my life?

Impossible, impossible in this life.

He thought so.

But what he didn’t know was that at certain critical moments and certain key decisions, people sometimes don’t do certain things purely rationally and purely for their own benefit. Heroes who stand up often do amazing feats with just a thought in their minds.

…

The benefits of participating in the Zhongsi Advanced Class came faster than expected.

In addition to what I learned, the same is true for promotions within the alliance system.

In addition, some important departments have also competed for people among the twenty non-military candidates.

For example, Hai Ersi Morgan was transferred from her original unit soon after graduation. The former was transferred to Xifeng Zhongsi College as a candidate for an excellent lecturer. Before she entered the advanced training class, she was already a well-known “progressive thinker” in the college. This time, she has further utilized her advantages. Moreover, she is likely to participate in the subsequent textbook reform of Zhongsi College.

Her sister, Milia de Jong, was snatched away by the disciplinary committee under Lambert. Anti-corruption and audit work require people with advanced ideas and a sense of justice.

Jason Morgan himself did not have any job transfer, but he was soon promoted to a D3-level staff member and sent to the Qinggu area in the south to serve as a local civil affairs liaison officer, responsible for receiving refugees, and will leave soon. His past resume has been gilded with a layer of gold. If he can make a difference in the south, his future will be bright.

In addition to the twenty people from the government departments, the fifty political commissars selected from various levels of troops did not have a particularly clear promotion.

But it’s okay, they are also in high positions.

Before coming to the advanced training class, they were the military and political chiefs of various troops, basically including the political commissars at the division, brigade, and regiment levels, as well as the instructors of the synthetic battalion in the First Wind-extinguishing Brigade. After returning to their respective troops, they basically still did their original jobs, but it must be much better than the previous situation of being forced to do it.

Moreover, although there was no change in the position, the military rank was generally promoted.

The scale of the new alliance army is not small, but the ranks of officers at all levels are generally low compared to the scale of the army. For example, the division commander and brigade commander are mostly lieutenant colonels; the regiment commander is mostly a major; the battalion commander is generally only a captain, and many company commanders are only lieutenants or even second lieutenants; a large number of platoon leaders are not even officers, but are non-commissioned officers.

This is a historical problem. The troops were established a short time ago, especially after the recovery of the ruins of the tower. Those garrison divisions were basically reorganized from the original adventure group. Although they have undergone training in the [Soldier Card] system, they are still the same people. Most of the military chiefs are the people in power in the previous adventure group. Although their regiments have been divided and dismantled severely to minimize the occurrence of factionalism, they still cannot avoid appointing these people as leaders.

In this way, Gu Hang deliberately suppressed the military rank. Those who do well and have military merits will be promoted, and the future division commander and brigade commander will be matched with the rank of colonel; those who do not do well do not need to be demoted, and they can do the corresponding rank with the rank.

In the case that the military chief officers are generally of low ranks, it is even more difficult for the second-in-command such as the political commissar to surpass them, and they are generally one level lower.

But this time, Gu Hang pulled up most of the fifty political commissars sent back by one level, and most of them were brought to the same level as the military chief officers in their respective troops.

This represents his attitude.

…

Jordan Leroy is from the old Feidong Society. Like Perbov, he is the first batch of soldiers from the Feidong Society. In the first batch of political commissar selection, he was at the same time as Thadius and was also a red hat. He has now become the brigade political commissar of the 1st Xifeng Brigade.

He was a major before, and was just specially awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel by the governor, which is the same level as their brigade commander Perbov.

His troops left the starship a week ago and went on vacation after landing. As for him, he was transferred to Zhongsi College with a transfer order to attend a refresher course.

Three days ago, his troops ended their vacation and added more than 2,000 soldiers from the new recruits camp, as well as a batch of equipment that had just been transported from the Weixing City Arsenal, to make up for the losses in the battle on the starship.

Then, the troops set out and left the garrison and headed to the west of Fuxing City.

There, the 7th and 8th Divisions were confronting the army composed of the rebel settlements that had formed an alliance.

The newly added troops were to reinforce the 7th and 8th Divisions, and to achieve key results and end the battle in the shortest possible time.

For this reason, after the course at Zhongsi College ended, Leroy immediately took a car and went to the second line of the battlefield about 130 kilometers west of Fuxing City with several political commissars who would also participate in the war.

Everyone parted ways here and went to find their own troops.

He also found the location of his troops. The flags of the Xifeng Brigade were planted in various places in the second-line military camp, fluttering in the wind.

The car drove into the military camp, and under the guidance of the soldiers, he came to a military tent. Lieutenant Colonel Perbov, who had just received the news, walked out of the door to greet his old partner.

The two hugged each other. Perbov patted Leroy on the back and said with a smile: “I finally waited for you to come back. Now, I can lead the troops to charge forward with confidence.”

Leroy just smiled and pulled Perbov, his fellow countryman and colleague, into the command tent.

As soon as he came in, he saw a military sand table.

Leroy asked: “What is the situation now? I rushed here immediately after I got out of school, and I didn’t have a chance to hear the latest situation on the way.”

Perbov said: “I was just about to tell you…”

Three days ago, the fully equipped Wind Extinguishing Brigade, the 2nd Motorized Infantry Division that had completed the motorized reorganization, and the Beast Slaughter Regiment set out together and arrived at the front line of the battle.

Among them, it is worth mentioning that the 3rd Independent Regiment finally got back the title of “Beast Slaughter Regiment” that they had been thinking about. This is thanks to the battle hero, Earo Lacrosha, who came from their unit and blew up the warlord of the orc fleet.

That guy is now very successful. Not only did he get the second Wind Extinguishing Medal in the whole army, but his rank was also promoted from corporal to special sergeant. He was originally going to be promoted to an officer to lead the troops, but he refused. He said he could only be a soldier.

That was out of the question. Originally, the highest rank of the Alliance military sergeant was sergeant, but for him, three levels of sergeant, senior sergeant, and special sergeant were specially opened, and Lacroxia became the only special sergeant in the whole army, commonly known as the king of soldiers.

And he, along with the troops who took back the name of the Beast Slaughtering Corps, arrived here last night.

They did not engage in battle immediately, mainly because they had to rest a little after a quick march of more than 100 kilometers. In addition, they also needed time to formulate an overall combat plan and wait for the political commissars who were still in training in various troops.

Now, everything is ready, and the only thing missing is the horn of attack.

The commander-in-chief of this battle is Colonel Yan Fangxu.

The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th and 8th division-level units gathered together and directly formed an army group. Yan Fangxu, the current highest military leader of the alliance military, took on the responsibility of the army group commander.

He was under great pressure.

The enemy on the opposite side was not bad, a group of rabble, even if there were many of them, but now Yan Fangxu, who had assembled a large army under his command, could he still be afraid?

But the governor’s eager expectations made him feel pressured.

According to the governor’s instructions, this battle must be fought quickly, with great results, and it must be decided in one battle, and it cannot be dragged out.

This is a political need.

War is an extension of politics.

In addition, although the governor did not say it explicitly, if the casualties in a battle are too large, then even if the various pre-war campaign goals are achieved, I am afraid he will not get any benefits.

However, he did not shrink from the head and tail, and still formulated a battle plan with the guiding ideology of “quickly defeat and completely annihilate”.

He called it “center blossom”.

As for the spearhead unit that blossoms in the center, the Wind-extinguishing Brigade is the one that should take the lead.
