Chapter 42 Education and Training
During this period, the staff of the institute were very busy with Ouyang Xuan. They went to industrial and mining production sites during the day and went to training schools in the evening. This was specially requested by Ouyang Xuan, because although the researchers were experts in various industries and copycats,
Those selected are both literate and mentally agile, but lack practical knowledge of industry and mining. We need to start with students.
.Currently, the training school only holds classes at night, much like the amateur night schools of later generations. It offers subjects such as forging, chemistry, refining, mining, commerce, and construction. The students are all management and technical personnel from industrial, mining, construction, and trading companies. And
Unlike other students who only study this major, graduate students also need to study all courses except business.
Ouyang Xuan is busier than a researcher because he also has to teach - in addition to teaching professional courses, he also teaches political courses. In terms of curriculum, Ouyang Xuan requires the school to include political courses as compulsory courses in addition to professional courses, and he
He Lu Dezhi taught. The political and ideological content Ouyang Xuan taught was mainly about the ideas of serving the country with loyalty, diligent service and loving the people. He also told the story of Yue Fei, Yu Jie and others who served the country loyally but were framed by traitors. He emphasized that this "country" is not a family.
A country with one surname, and
It is the "country" for everyone; Lu De's teaching content focused on instilling Mencius' concept of "the people are the first, the country is the second, and the king is the most important". Although these political views are quoted from the classics and are said by the Confucian sages Confucius and Mencius, if they are
The traitorous officials in the court will still know it
He was resented. But Ouyang Xuan still insisted on teaching the above content, and the reason was very simple - the Southern Song Dynasty court had neither the will nor the means to work hard to protect the people from the massacre by the Mongols, so why did they still need to work hard for this decadent regime?
In addition to teaching political courses, Ouyang Xuan also teaches professional courses in various classes. Although he is not proficient in other professional knowledge except chemistry, this lack of proficiency is only for modern people. Ouyang Xuan transcends the knowledge horizon of thousands of years.
It still caused great shock and impact to the students. He not only pointed out to the students
It not only marked the way forward, but also broke the shackles of old concepts and thinking in their minds. When Ouyang Xuan was giving a lecture, Du Daquan and Lu Dezhi ordered people to record what he said and combine it with other teachers' lectures.
Bound into a volume, as the most important information of the institute and school, carefully preserved
Come. As for why it is not printed and made into a book, firstly, there are not many literate people at present, and secondly, there are no printing conditions in this mountain. More importantly, these contents are definitely the most sophisticated technology in this era, and they are not available for the time being.
Suitable for large-scale dissemination. The content taught by Ouyang Xuan mostly uses modern scientific terminology.
It is also consistent with the terminology used by industrial, mining and construction companies. At the beginning of the industrial and mining industry, Ouyang Xuan fully adopted the modern weights and measures system of "kilometers, meters, centimeters, tons, kilograms, grams". This set of weights and measures
The system is more suitable for industrial development, and it also makes it more difficult for enemies to imitate and plagiarize.
Of course, technology diffusion is inevitable. Ouyang Xuan just hopes that it will come later to ensure the overwhelming advantage of the Thunderbolt Army in technology. In order to prevent leaks, Dong Hu led the guard team to not only conduct research on the researchers, but also on the participating students.
Strict background checks and investigations. Of course, the strict review almost hid talents. There were times
When Ouyang Xuan went to the iron mine to inspect the production, he found that the mine support frame was not only fastened but also extremely precise, so he asked who made it. Dang Shijian, the manager of the mining company who accompanied him, told him that it was a prisoner from the labor camp named Ni Xianzhong.
Made by Ni Xianzhong, who was originally a craftsman who made siege equipment in the Chongqing Prefecture army. During the attack on Liuliba, he
Several craftsmen were captured together and became members of the labor camp. Ouyang Xuan then ordered Dong Hu to conduct an in-depth investigation into his situation. After verifying that he was indeed being coerced into being a bandit, he was transferred to an industrial company and specially approved as a gangster.
students, and authorized them to select personnel proficient in equipment among the prisoners to engage in relevant research. In this era, the production of siege equipment was absolutely
It is high-tech precision work. Of course, Ouyang Xuan did not ask them to make trebuchets and crossbows, but to trial-produce machine tools. In fact, our country has had primitive machine tools since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but most of them were made of wood as the main material and iron as the main material.
Auxiliary, the structure is also very crude. Ouyang Xuan asked Ni Xianzhong and others to develop and manufacture machine tools for producing muskets, cannons and other weapons.
Ouyang Xuan's education and training is not limited to research institutes and schools. In his view, the ideological and political education of the Perak Army is one of the current priorities. For this reason, he also opened political courses in the Perak Army. In addition to the courses taught by him and Lu Dezhi,
In addition to preaching the political content of the school, Yu Zhu and Huang Dagen were also
, Cao Ergou and others told their personal stories of the anti-Mongolian resistance, lamenting the brutality of the Mongolian army, the weakness and corruption of traitorous officials in the court, and the deep suffering of the people on the four sides of the Sichuan Gorge. Through political education, the political consciousness of the Perak officers and soldiers was greatly improved.
, giving him a preliminary understanding of fighting for the people.
The purpose of the army's existence is to win the war. Cao Ergou was also extremely strict with the discipline concept and military skills training of the Perak Army. They were all high-intensity drills close to actual combat, which made the soldiers complain endlessly. The increase in training intensity also brought about
This caused the sharp rise in food consumption, which made Yang Xiucai, who was in charge of food supply, frowning all day long. During the breaks in training, Ouyang Xuan did not let the soldiers completely relax, and asked the soldiers to work in shifts.
A large discussion is held for the unit. After the winners are selected among the squads, debates are held between companies. The discussion questions set are all related to the current and future actual combat of the Perak Army, such as the first one
The discussion question is: How can we defeat the Wanjiaping gang at the minimum cost and obtain maximum benefits? The second question is: If we are farming in the plains, how can we resist the harassment of siege weapons and cavalry?
Ouyang Xuan discussed military issues in this way, and he was not afraid of leaking secrets. In addition to the closed management of the Perak Army, it was also because everyone with a discerning eye could see the strategy of attacking Wanjiaping or going down to the mountains to farm. As for what to do after the discussion,
The implementation method is a secret known only to the top brass of the Perak Army. There are many benefits to adopting this kind of military democracy, in addition to the centralized
The wisdom of the crowd can be used to spread the word, and the next step of the military plan can be checked and filled. In addition to picking up the omissions, it can also enhance the soldiers' sense of ownership and belonging. At the same time, through this confrontation and debate method, talents can also be discovered to provide the next step for the Thunderbolt Army.
