The arrival of "transfer student" Zhu Lizhuo did not change Zhou Changfeng's status quo in the training class. Although the arrogant Yan Chenwu remained unchanged on the surface, he had already put away his initial dissatisfaction in his heart.
October of the thirty-sixth year of Zhichang passed like this day by day, and the weather gradually turned cooler.
While Zhu Lizhuo was busy catching up on the lessons he had left behind, Zhou Changfeng's essay, which took four days to write and seven days to refine, was handed over to the Governor's Office and the Naval Department of the Ministry of War after being evaluated by Yang Zhen. Serve as an example for discussion.
This paper titled "A Brief Discussion on the Allocation of Land, Sea and Air Force Units for Landing Operations" was highly praised by Cheng Han, the staff officer of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and was also highly praised by naval generals such as Xu Zhanming, Yan Zhong, and Yang Zhen.
The so-called "allocation" refers to the planned and organized deployment of one's own forces and weapons to form a system based on the accepted tactical tasks and taking into account factors such as terrain, climate, enemy situation, etc.
In a sense, this paper is more like a general outline. If more detailed expansion is carried out on its basis, it can be used as a new version of the combat doctrine of the Ming Dynasty Marine Corps.
In fact, Zhou Changfeng also had this plan. He was wondering whether he should develop a trial training doctrine for the Marine Corps to use.
On the penultimate day of October, which was traditionally a day off for government agencies, Xia Xiaoshi called out Zhou Changfeng who was doing nothing.
Xia Xiaoshi, who was wearing a white coat and a red skirt with beige patterns in between, looked very depressed and complained a lot when they met.
"...Teaching and educating people is not easy. Those brats can make people mad! I hit them hard with a ruler, but it only improves their memory for a few days. After a few days, they are still the same!"
As she spoke, she clenched her fists angrily, gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "It's only been half a month, and the window glass was broken on three sides! The window lattice was broken in two places!"
Zhou Changfeng, dumbfounded, replied: "Boys at this age are really restless and difficult to discipline."
The three views have not yet been established, they are full of energy, and they are in the early stages of rebellion, so they can naturally make people half-dead.
"No, I will be pissed to death if this continues..." Xia Xiaoshi hesitated for a while, and finally seemed to have made up her mind, "I want to live a few more years, and next year, I will apply to be transferred to the girls' class!"
"There aren't many girls' schools and girls' classes anymore, are there?"
"Well... I hope it can happen."
In terms of the education system, after the academic reform, Ming Dynasty was actually relatively close to France and Germany.
In terms of macro-level thinking, the Ming Dynasty emphasized the unification of education. Educational governance must be centralized, with the Department of Education of the Ministry of Rites responsible for it, and local governments were strictly prohibited from modifying and compiling teaching materials without permission. This was different from Germany.
However, the specific model is similar to Germany, divided into primary, secondary and higher education.
Elementary education refers to primary school, which lasts for five years. The imperial court required that towns and villages must have primary schools, which were mainly renovated or newly built old private schools. Each county had as few as a dozen schools and as many as hundreds.
Secondary education is not divided into junior high schools and high schools. It is only divided into three categories: four-year technical middle schools, six-year practical middle schools, and seven-year liberal arts middle schools.
Technical high schools are equivalent to vocational and technical schools, but they are not bad in this era. Their courses are relatively simple, and graduates will be senior workers, technicians, junior engineers, etc.
Practical middle schools are relatively moderate, focusing on cultivating various practical talents such as engineers, accountants, lawyers, and police officers.
Liberal arts middle schools are the most "high-end". Basically only students with good grades and good family backgrounds will attend them. They study a lot of subjects. Only graduates here are eligible to apply for university entrance exams. These high-end talents in the future will become Researchers, architects, aircraft designers, ship designers, etc.
However, the four major military academies also accept applications from graduates of practical middle schools, such as Zhou Changfeng.
The Jiangning County No. 2 Middle School where Xia Xiaoshi works is a liberal arts middle school.
"So good students are so naughty? Even if they are more lively, they should still know their limits, right?" Zhou Changfeng asked.
"Good grades do not mean a stable character. Some children are smart, but they are not fuel-efficient lamps."
Her words aroused Zhou Changfeng's interest, "What then?"
"Of course it's 'to convince people with reason'. Every one of them, I beat them with a ruler and cried, but they still dared to complain to their parents when they went back!"
"So you won't be sued, right?"
"Ha!" Xia Xiaoshi snorted coldly and said proudly: "The so-called 'Master of the Lord of Heaven and Earth', the truth is on my side, who dares?"
Xunzi said: "Serving heaven above and serving earth below, respecting ancestors and honoring teachers are the three principles of etiquette." It can be seen that teachers have a high status in Chinese tradition, and respecting teachers and teaching is by no means empty talk.
This is only one aspect. After all, her father is in the criminal department. Naturally, the school does not dare to take sides and can only judge the matter fairly. Otherwise, it will not be a joke if it is included in a book.
The two of them walked and talked, and when it was approaching noon, they discussed finding a place to eat.
After thinking about the past between myself and Xia Xiaoshi, it seems that time is not too short? Zhou Changfeng felt that the "preliminary preparations" were now complete, and the next phase of the strategy plan could almost be carried out.
Well, let’s start with holding hands.
At noon, when they were walking along the street towards a restaurant, a truck happened to be driving quickly from far and near.
Xia Xiaoshi, on the other hand, was talking enthusiastically about the Leica camera she had finally bought after saving for a long time, and did not pay attention to the cars passing by on the street.
In fact, there was no danger now, because the two were still more than one meter away from the edge of the street, and the truck was driving smoothly.
If there is no chance, then artificially create opportunities.
If there is no danger, then pretend there is.
So when the truck approached them, Zhou Changfeng suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed her left hand and pulled her a step aside. The truck also roared past the two of them.
A few seconds later...
Before Xia Xiaoshi, whose face was full of surprise, could speak, Zhou Changfeng let go of his hand and said seriously: "On the street, it is still very dangerous to get carried away while chatting."
Aha?
Hiss...did this guy hold my hand just now?
Thinking of this, her face suddenly turned red.
Not disgusted, but more of a bit of surprise?
This is probably the so-called "unexpected surprise".
"I know...I know." Xia Xiaoshi, who seemed a little scared, said softly, stroking her chest.
Zhou Changfeng's small manipulations, which he implemented according to the situation, succeeded easily. Since she did not express any disgust or unwillingness towards physical contact, she could continue to move forward steadily.
To put it simply, the touch and experience of holding hands can be summed up in one word, tender!
How do you say that?
Very moist!
"Come on, let's go eat."
"Um."
