King of Mercenaries Chapter 302

Published at 14th of June 2023 05:14:13 AM

After starting research on sextant and sailing clock, Ada often complained of lack of assistants. Because research is not something one can do.

Although, those Italian watchmakers hired can temporarily admire Ada's assistant. However, it is difficult for these people to let them do precision machining, but to make their own opinions. After all, artisans are more adept at craftsmanship than brainstorming. And scientific research must be brainstorming. After all, there is something negligent for a person to be a cow.

In fact, professors in later generations basically use their own doctoral or graduate students when they do research. In other words, ordinary scientists need high-quality assistants.

However, there are very few people in East Frisian State-owned culture at present. Where is it possible to equip Da Vinci with a highly educated assistant?

Marin thought about it, and finally decided to pick out the smart and intelligent ones from those artisan apprentices and send them to Da Vinci ...

Before his death, after recruiting a large number of artisans, Marin chose a group of teenagers from his serf family to learn the craftsmanship from those artisans. There are thousands of this boy in total. However, they belong to various industries. Some learn to make clocks, some learn to build ships, some learn to make guns and artillery ...

From the juvenile apprenticeship of learning to make clocks, Marlin chose the ten most intelligent people, gave them to Ada, and assisted him. At the same time, it also allowed Da Vinci to teach these teenagers when he was free.

In fact, these teenagers are very poor. Because they are just smarter than ordinary children, but they have never been to school. Because there were few people who went to school in the Middle Ages, they were either children of nobles or children of businessmen. There is no money at home, and he cannot afford to go to school.

Therefore, these clever young apprentices may learn faster, but the culture is too bad, and primary school students are not as good. However, Marin had no better way now, so he had to do it first.

With so much pain in mind, Marin decided to build a school ...

As an earl, Marin is qualified to build a school. Of course, it needs to be co-organized with the church. Otherwise, if you do it alone, it may cause the church to be dissatisfied.

However, the church in East Frisian Lambert is under the control of Marin. Therefore, the problem of running a school is not big.

As for running a university, Marin has never even thought about it. Because the entire East Frisian has few ordinary church schools and few elementary school students. Who should enroll in a university?

Therefore, Marin first planned to run a group of primary and secondary schools to train basic talents. Wait until these people have reached middle school, and then run a university.

However, there is another problem that plagues Marin, and that is-Marin wants to let the serf's children also receive education, but the serf's children go to school.

Moreover, letting a group of children of nobles and rich children of copper serfs go to school together is estimated that they are not willing. After all, medieval society was heavily hierarchical. Putting aristocratic children and civilian children together will feel insulted, let alone go to school with serf children ...

For this reason, Marin has a headache. As a future generation, how can Marin not understand the simple truth that "the master is in the people"? Noble children and rich children are born rich and have no future. Therefore, they often do not study hard. And those serf children would be very excited if they were given the opportunity to learn about culture. Therefore, it is easier for them to study carefully and learn more.

The problem is that this era is a time of severe social hierarchy. Putting serf children and noble children together for education is tantamount to humiliating those noble children. Moreover, when they are together, not only the aristocratic children feel dissatisfied, but also the serf children will be very uncomfortable ...

In the end, Marin thought for a long time and decided to run the school separately ...

His plan is to open a noble school for noble children, military children and rich children ...

Yes, Marin juxtaposed the soldier's children and the noble's children. Because of his plans to fight for hegemony in the future, Marin decided to give preferential treatment to military families so that people would volunteer to serve in the army willingly.

Therefore, Marin specifically ordered that all children in the East Frisian military service family can go to school for free, with the same treatment as the wealthy business children, slightly lower than the noble children.

The school they attended was a noble school co-organized by Marin and the church. At school, students study the Bible (instead of language), mathematics, and basic military skills.

Like the compulsory education promoted by Frederick the Great, Marin actually regarded the aristocratic school as the cradle of the officers in the training layer. All students in the school must live in a closed education. Every day, the students of the aristocratic school get up to hear the numbers, complete the assembly in the shortest time, and then run.

Then, I study the Bible and mathematics all morning, and arrange basic military training or organize sports activities in the afternoon. As for what sports activities are arranged? Still asking? Football, of course!

Football can not only train students' physical fitness, but also train their awareness and ability to cooperate with each other. Of course, as a sport for elementary school students, Marin absolutely prohibits them from using dangerous moves such as tackles. Because he didn't want his reserve officers to be cut off.

After entering middle school, Marin will give law and management courses to the children of noble schools. At that time, those who are good at learning will be promoted to civil servants. Those with good military literacy will be promoted as officers.

Because of receiving a semi-military education from an early age, these children will easily adapt to military life when they grow up, and have a good military basic ability.

At that time, the formation of a powerful modern army is in need of these talents as grass-roots officers ...

最大 The biggest difference between the modern army and the ancient army is the difference in the quality of grassroots commanders. In ancient times, grassroots commanders were illiterate and had no military literacy. They only knew to listen to the commands above. If the Lord died, these grass-roots officers would lose their backbone and flee with the soldiers.

Like the last battle in Lyle County, I heard that the Duke of Saxony was shot dead, and the Saxon infantry who came to attack immediately fled ...

The modern army has a strict system. According to the modern military system, the commander of a regiment is killed, and the deputy commander takes over the command. If the deputy leader is dead, let the first battalion take over the hard battle ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The first battalion leader is dead, then the second battalion leader takes over ... In this order, there will be no headless dragon.

Of course, this is because officers of the modern army are educated and disciplined. Even though many grass-roots officers before the liberation had little culture, they all received literacy training after entering the army, and the instructors must be cultural people, and they would remind those officers with little culture not to make mistakes.

If the leader is killed, the modern army generally will continue to execute orders under the leadership of grass-roots officers, or stand by and wait for the orders of the newly-accepted Supreme Commander. Even if you retreat, you can retreat in an orderly manner under the command of well-educated grass-roots officers without fleeing.

Marin naturally wanted to build such an army, but now the captains of his team are basically illiterate. Even the company captain is in short supply. Therefore, Marin was in such a hurry that he needed a wandering knight from a cultured knight family.

However, when Marin used these wandering knights, he found that these wandering knights were too deeply influenced by traditional old military ideas to be changed. After all, they have been receiving that kind of education since childhood.

Therefore, it is more difficult to count on thinking formed adult wandering knights to adapt to the modern army. Many wandering knights are still unable to extricate themselves in the thinking of knights wearing plate armor to take the lead in charge. It is not really appropriate for them to command infantry. Only a few intelligent people, such as Fronzberg, can quickly adapt to Marin's modern army style.

如果 And if those noble children are raised from a young age, when they grow up, they will meet the requirements of the modern army. In this way, Marin could pull up a team casually, and he would be invincible, just like Prussia and Germany later ...
