Struggle in Russia

设立 [Establish cultural and skill cram schools to improve the cultural quality of ordinary soldiers, help them better understand military orders and regulations, and improve their military skills and speed of mastering military skills. 】

骁 Li Xiao's statement left Leonid in deep thought. When I first heard Li Xiao's idea, he felt that the other party was a little whimsical. Serf soldiers learned culture? Is this necessary? Can they cooperate?

I ca n’t go to the grassroots and do n’t know how difficult it is. Going down this one has refreshed a lot of cognition of Leonid. For the first time, he knew how big the difference was between theory and practice, the first time he knew how foolish ordinary soldiers were, and the first time he knew how greedy and violent the officers were.

Once Leonid looked down on Kutuzov's running tactics in the 1812 war, and even less popular tactics such as Menshikov today. He felt that he must command better than the other.

But he really understood the actual situation of the front line, only to find that no matter whether it was a running tactic or a head tactic, it was a last resort. The quality of the Russian soldiers is really too bad, it is simply a group of black people, and they have an advantage in numbers.

Therefore, Leonid felt that if he wanted to do something, he must also improve the soldiers' technical and tactical level. However, he did not go as deep as Li Xiao thought. He was more inclined to strengthen military training and use strong training to form muscle memory for soldiers. Let their bodies learn how to fight.

However, Li Xiao opened another door for him. No matter how strong his muscle memory is, it would not be worth a clever brain. If he can teach soldiers to read words and let them understand the intent of military dogma and superior orders, are they Would it perform better?

"I think this is inevitable!" Li Xiao immediately cited the example of the Napoleonic era. "Look at the French army of that era, because grass-roots soldiers have a low illiteracy rate, know the meaning of the revolution, and support the revolution from the heart. Their Combat enthusiasm for fighting far beyond the soldiers of other countries of the same era, coupled with adequate training, has created the myth of Napoleon's sweep of continental Europe. "

"Look at us again!" Li Xiao criticized disdainfully. "The soldiers rushed to catch the Zhuang Ding. The soldiers did not know why they were fighting. They had no faith, no fighting spirit, and insufficient training, plus a group of them regarded them as gray. Can the officer used by the cattle perform well? "

Not only Leonid, Vishniak and Boris were silent. Objectively speaking, the performance of the Russian army in 1812 was really good, relying on space to change time to kill Napoleon. Without the vast strategic space, the continuous pound aid provided by Britain, and the fire in Napoleon's backyard, it would be difficult to say.

Anyway, Russia alone can't do Napoleon. It will only be rubbed on the ground by Corsica monsters.

Li Xiao continued to peddle his idea: "To be honest, our army has fallen far behind the European powers. We still stayed 30 years ago, wearing military uniforms 30 years ago, holding weapons 30 years ago and performing three Ten years ago, the code had to deal with enemies that were stronger than the French army 30 years later. Isn't this to death? "

Li Xiao said passionately: "You should know that the British and the French have begun to popularize the new rifle loaded with rifle, the rate of fire is far more accurate than the rotten smooth-bore rifle in our hands ... The Navy has begun to fully enter the steam iron armor Times, thicker armor, faster and more flexible formations ... what do we use to fight? Do we still rely on human life to pile up? "

Li Xiao snorted disdainfully: "Last time we won the victory with huge sacrifice, but this time, even if we bleed our blood, we may not be able to repel the enemy! So there is only one way out, learning advanced experience in English and French, introducing new Technology rearms our army! "

"But these new technologies are completely different from the traditions we once knew. Operating these new weapons requires more specialized soldiers. Can we count on a group of illiterate and semi-illiterate to operate a steamship? To maintain more complex rifled rifles? Those guys I ca n’t even figure out my left and right feet. Can I use these advanced weapons? ”

Leonid was speechless, and he found that Li Xiao was right. He has accompanied Crown Prince Alexander to the UK, to observe the exercises of the Royal Navy, and to the Russian Baltic Fleet, and to observe the exercises of his new steamship.

In contrast, the gap is obvious. The Royal Navy was obviously more skilful and skilful, while the Baltic Fleet seemed to stumble and did not take advantage of the steamship at all. Obviously this is the difference brought about by the disparity in soldier qualities.

After groaning for a while, Leonid admitted very simply: "Sir, you are right. The quality of our soldiers needs to be strengthened ... Do you think it is a good way to run cram schools?"

骁 Li Xiao is actually more sensitive to Leonid's sudden concern about cram schools. After all, this is the person who is the Crown Prince of Alexander. The ghost knows if he has any special tasks to deal with him ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ So there are certain things that he definitely does not want to let the other party join.

But considering that the cram school can't be concealed, after all, so many eyes are staring at him, a little wind and grass will attract attention. If Leonid also knew and acquiesced to the existence of this cram school, he would have said something when he was attacked maliciously.

After thinking for a while, Li Xiao decided to take a bet: "Can't say that running a cram school is the best way. If you can, solve the problem from the root cause, and let the Minister of Education engage in the universal basic education facing the serf's children. Tao ... Tuition classes can only say that headaches, heads, feet, and feet are too narrow, and the audience is too narrow, and these soldiers are too old, and they missed the golden period of learning, and can only say that they are better than nothing! "

Leonid nodded, and universal basic education is indeed the solution. However, based on his knowledge of the Minister of National Education Uvarov, let him take out real gold and silver to run schools for the serf's children. It might as well kill him directly. That guy is a **** serfdom advocate and can never agree.

"Then we will run a cram school first, and do what we can do first!" Mission promotion, and finally army promotion! "

骁 Li Xiao was stunned. I really didn't expect Leonid to support him so much. Wasn't this guy here to find fault?

While Li Xiao was still faint, Leonid spoke again: "Her Grand Duke, it seems I used to underestimate you, but I didn't expect you to pay so much attention to the military application of new technology. It was a surprise ... by the way, I would like to ask you to write an article about the prospects and promotion of military applications of new technologies. Your insights in this regard have inspired me ... let us communicate! "
