Since the eighth year of Dade in the Yuan Dynasty (1304), the government of Gaozhou moved from Dianbai (today's Changpo Old City) to Maoming (today's Gaozhou City). Maoming has been the government for more than 600 years. Gaocheng is both a prefecture and a county.
Both the government school and the county school are in one city. Therefore, Maoming is not only the political and economic center of Gaozhou, but also the local cultural center. Therefore, Maoming’s cultural and educational undertakings have always been among the best in western Guangdong, both in the province and in the country.
The surrounding area is also famous.
The Maoming area was civilized earlier, starting from the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and there were a lot of people who passed the imperial examinations. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the academic level was at its peak, and there were some great leaders in the world (Lin Zhaotang, the number one scholar in the imperial examinations in Guanggui in the Qing Dynasty), and some Hanlin editors.
There are countless people who have passed the examination and passed the examination. The place advocates education. In only one corner of Gaocheng, there are government schools and county schools side by side. There are more than a hundred academies all over the place. Students from nearby counties and even Guangxi Province come here to study.
According to the custom, studying and studying are highly valued by the people of the city. After the reform abolished the imperial examination, the academic style still existed. In the early years of the Republic of China, there were three middle schools in the county: Gaozhou Middle School, Maoming Middle School and Gaozhou Agricultural School. The senior primary schools had Liubao, Bo
Thirteen schools including Pu, Dunren, Gongguan, Shigu, Lize, Shigu, Xindong, Sishui, Jimei, Shatin and Maoming No. 1 Senior Primary School. In addition, there are some junior primary schools scattered in various villages.
's private school.
In those days when schools had not yet developed, Maoming was one of the counties with the most primary and secondary schools. By the middle of the Republic of China, Maoming education had developed again: Dunren Primary School was transformed into Dunren Middle School (the predecessor of Boundary Middle School), Gongguan Primary School was transformed into Maonan Middle School,
Liubao Primary School was transformed into Mei Middle School; there are hundreds of middle school graduates every year, twice as many as in the early Republic of China.
Today, Su Rui, Liang Zhi, Bai Jingran, Lin Shiqian, Li Yifeng and others, accompanied by Maoming County Magistrate Bai Shining, the Education Director and the principal, came to Maoming Middle School to observe the situation of the school. Bai Shining introduced the situation of the school in detail: "General Su, Maoming
The middle school is one of the three largest middle schools in our county. There are more than 1,000 teachers and students in the school, and nearly 300 students graduate every year. It has provided a large number of talents to our western Guangdong region."
"Well, very good!"
Su Rui showed a look of relief on his face and nodded with satisfaction. At this time, in front of him, there was a group of middle school students taking a military training class.
These middle school students wear grass-green Boy Scout shirts, suit shorts, with shirt tails tucked in, and belts around the waist. Girls wear grass green Boy Scout shirts, blue skirts, shirt tails tucked in, and belts tied around the waist. Students uniformly wear scarves, badges, and epaulettes.
Police chicken (whistle).
They also have badges on their chests. The badges have the name of the school and their names. The right badge has the words "Chinese Boy Scouts" and the left badge has the name of the school. The end of the badge has two fingers and a three-inch-long, red, yellow, blue, black and white five-color cloth team.
Emblem; there is a number on the right shoulder patch. The police chicken chain is made of three round ropes woven into a finger-sized and five-foot-long rope. The other end is knotted with a large circle and put on the left arm. The police chicken chain is passed through the button of the left breast pocket.
, pass through the chest and put it into the right breast pocket. When leaving the team, each person has a five-foot-long Scout stick. He holds the head of the stick in his hand and puts it on his shoulder in a gun-holding position. Although he is a student, he looks like a fully armed warrior.
, the lineup is mighty. These middle school students are conducting military drills under the leadership of instructors, mastering military movements such as running to stand at attention, running from running to step, column to horizontal column, horizontal column to column, etc.
Looking at these students who are only fourteen or fifteen years old and still have childish faces, but they are all serious about training, Su Ruihe, Liang Zhi, Bai Jingran and others can't help but nod secretly. Although these students are young, they are all very good at training.
Their strictness and standard of movement are not much different from those of soldiers in the army. What is especially rare is their age. They have such good discipline at such a young age. If they join the army in the future, they will definitely be rare good soldiers.
Su Rui unexpectedly looked at Bai Shining and said approvingly: "County Magistrate Bai, I didn't expect you to have such a good effect in educating the place. It's really rare."
Bai Shining smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, "General Su, thank you for your praise. Although Mr. Bai is not talented, he also knows the principle of serving as an official to benefit a party."
Liang Zhi, who rarely praises others, also nodded and said, "Well, it's really good."
Unexpectedly, this county magistrate, who looks fair and fat, and seems to say the words "congratulations on getting rich" whenever he opens his mouth, is really good at education. Since ancient times, no matter which dynasty or generation, the imperial court has inspected the ability of a local official to educate the people.
It has always been an important benchmark and an important basis for official promotion. However, after the Republic of China, this tradition was obviously not very popular. But this Bai Shining was able to stick to this tradition, which also surprised Su Rui.
Judging from the conditions of the schools he visited, County Magistrate Bai must be very skilled in education.
"General Su, Chief of Staff Liang, please move, we will go to the high school to have a look!"
The smile on Bai Shining's face became even brighter, and he took them to the high school on the other side.
I saw that the students in the senior high school were different from those in the junior high school. They wore flat-top military caps with cap badges; they wore Zhongshan uniforms and suit trousers; they had their feet tied and leather shoes;
They look like full officers. High school students undergo military training. The course includes theoretical and technical training, and they implement three exercises and two lectures. They master various gun postures, such as holding a gun (without ammunition), standing shooting, kneeling shooting, prone shooting, etc., so as to master the military
Shooting technique.
"hiss……"
Seeing this, everyone became even more moved. In the eyes of Li Yifeng and others, these high school voices can become squad leaders, platoon leaders and other positions as long as they are put into the army for ten and a half months of training. Some outstanding ones are not even able to become company commanders.
question.
Su Rui took a deep breath and said to the principal who was always by his side: "Principal Hong, how many high school students will graduate this semester?"
Principal Hong, who was tall and thin with black-rimmed eyes, said without thinking: "There will be 323 students graduating after this semester."
"Well……"
Su Rui nodded, "Principal, from now on, can you leave a hundred students to our army for each year's graduates?"
"this……"
Principal Hong said distressedly: "General Su, these students are all good talents. It is not easy for their parents to train them to be talents. It would be a pity if they were allowed to become ordinary soldiers."
Su Rui understands the regret in Principal Hong's heart. A high school student has gone through eleven years of hard study from high school to high school graduation. If they are allowed to become ordinary soldiers, what will happen to them?
A small bullet is enough to wipe out more than ten years of hard work by their parents and teachers. As their principal, he is naturally extremely reluctant to part with it.
"Principal Hong." Su Rui said seriously: "Now that our country's war of resistance is becoming more and more severe, our troops need qualified and educated soldiers more and more urgently. Just like our air force and artillery, can you
Do you expect an illiterate soldier to read a fuel gauge, know how to calculate the value of a trigonometric function, and measure ballistic advance? What changes in war are not only the changes and improvements in weapons, it also puts forward challenges for the soldiers who master those weapons.
Higher requirements, which is why I came here this time.”
Principal Hong still shook his head: "But...their parents gave their children to us, but we pushed them to the battlefield. I...I really can't bear it."
"You are confused!"
Su Rui was immediately annoyed. He shouted sternly: "Principal Hong, to put it bluntly, the parents of these students care about their children. Don't the parents of ordinary soldiers in the army also care about their children? Although they have never read anything,
But they are also the darlings of their parents and the backbone of the family. If they can sacrifice, why can’t these students sacrifice? Why should the lives of these students be nobler than theirs?”
Su Rui's words reached Principal Hong's ears word for word, and they were so harsh and heart-wrenching. Everyone felt ashamed. In this high school, someone who graduated from a high school can be called a young scholar.
In the 1990s, many students and teachers did have a sense of superiority in their hearts. Although they may not necessarily look down on the illiterate farmers, that sense of superiority did exist.
Principal Hong, who was speechless by Su Rui, lowered his head and sighed: "The general is right, but my thinking is too narrow. Don't worry, we will follow the instructions and do a good job in the ideological work of the students."
."
After listening to Principal Hong's words, Su Rui's expression softened, and he said earnestly, "Principal Hong, I also know that it is cruel to push students onto the battlefield, but now our entire Chinese nation is involved in this war.
The severe form of the life-and-death war has forced us to restrain those unnecessary pities, do you understand?"
…………
After visiting Maoming Middle School, Su Rui did not visit other schools. Instead, he led Li Yifeng, Bai Jingran and other senior officials from the 300 Brigade back to the Maoming Security Headquarters in the center of the county.
After entering the office, Su Rui asked everyone to sit down, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, we have finally arrived in Maoming. From now on, we are far apart from the central government. It is not easy for those heads in Chongqing to deal with it.
Let's point fingers.
But everything has its pros and cons. The superiors cannot tell us what to do, but it is not easy for us to get support from friendly forces. It can be said that there are half benefits and half disadvantages. I thought about it again and again. In order to be able to deal with the threat of the Japanese army, I decided to
The teaching team will adapt it.”
"What...adaptation?"
Except for Liang Zhi, everyone else had a look of surprise on their faces. They bluntly said that among the entire 300 divisions, the teaching regiment had the strongest combat effectiveness. Although their equipment was different from that of the 398 and 398 divisions.
The 99th Brigade is about the same, but if they use their combat effectiveness, they can outshine the infantry regiments under these two brigades by a large margin.
The reason is very simple, that is because the quality of the individual soldiers in the teaching regiment is the highest among the entire 300 divisions. Su Rui stuffed the entire division's almost slightly educated soldiers there.
But what everyone can't figure out is that the current teaching team's combat effectiveness is already very strong. Isn't it still under the eyes of the master?
