Chapter 308 Splitting the Military Academy (please vote for me!)

In addition to defense construction, the second phase of the Leonora Industrial Base is also a top priority in Australasia. new˙ɔoɯ

In fact, the construction of the second phase of the Leonora Industrial Site started in 1913 and was initially expected to be completed.

After all, the second phase of construction will far exceed the first phase of the industrial base in terms of scale and planning.

Even if all the factories built in the first phase are fully staffed, they will only provide less than 50,000 jobs for Australasia at best.

But if the second phase is completed, the construction of the second phase alone will be enough to create more than 100,000 jobs.

If the first phase of construction is included, the entire Leonora Industrial Base can provide at least 150,000 jobs in Australasia, which will not only fully meet the job demand in Western Australia, but also benefit South Australia. .

With large investment from the government and industrial sectors, the construction of industrial bases is faster than expected.

If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to complete the construction of the industrial base in early 2013 and in 1

This also means that if the First World War happened as it happened in history, Australasia would have had a super industrial zone with more than 150,000 jobs before the First World War, which would not only further stabilize the level and scale of industry, but also Able to export a large number of industrial products to Europe.

As Australasia's population grows, more jobs will be needed. Including industrial bases and other various constructions, in addition to the needs of national development, they also add more jobs to meet the needs of the people of Australasia.

In order to cope with the impending European war, Arthur also issued orders to the agricultural sector, requiring the expansion of agricultural production as much as possible and the temporary reduction of foreign food exports.

Except for some disaster-stricken areas with high food prices, grain exports from other regions will be reduced.

After all, the price of food at this time is definitely not as good as the price of food during the war. It is better to prepare for the stocking of food early and wait until the war breaks out in Europe before dumping it. new˙ɔoɯ

At that time, all European countries will send hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops to participate in the war. Various domestic military factories and civilian factories will make concessions for the sake of the military. It is natural that food production will decline.

For those with high emotional intelligence, the purpose of stockpiling grain and dumping it during the war is actually to prevent Europeans from facing hunger and starvation.

After all, Arthur was a European after all. How could he sit back and watch Europeans face hunger and starve to death because of the war?

Although food is not free, it can always save someone's life, right?

Judging from the millions of tons of grain production in Australasia every year, the profit from the grain harvesting was not a small amount until the outbreak of World War I.

In addition to agriculture, Arthur also made certain arrangements in education and medical care.

The first is medical care. What we can feel is that it is becoming increasingly difficult to attract medical talents from Europe.

Because as the war is about to progress, European countries are in a state of protection for more important talents in medical, military and other fields.

Therefore, Australasia must seize these few opportunities and recruit as many medical talents as possible before the outbreak of World War I.

Whether they are highly skilled doctors or medical researchers engaged in research, they are talents that are needed and in short supply in Australasia.

Arthur even plans to let the royal family consortium set up a medical group to be responsible for medical research and production, and to produce more medical supplies for Australasia and even the world. Even if it is for profit, it is also a contribution to mankind.

For example, Alexander Fleming, who is currently working in Australasia, discovered penicillin, which was a miracle drug during the war and had extremely important strategic significance and value.

If manufacturing technology could be successfully discovered and mastered before World War I, this technology alone would be enough for Australasia to acquire huge wealth and become a new world upstart.

Weapons, bullets, and equipment may be in short supply for powerful countries, but the shortage is not that serious.

After all, even if bullets are sent to the battlefield, more than half of them are wasted. The bullets that can actually kill the enemy are not even one thousandth of the wasted bullets. New 𝗑.𝖼𝗈𝗆

But penicillin is different. Penicillin can save a heroic soldier who should have died of wound infection and reduce the huge casualties in European countries.

This is of extremely important value to war. Whoever can master this magical medicine can take the lead in the war.

After all, it may take a veteran from the battlefield several months to a year to recover from his injuries.

And a new training time is almost that long. But the combat effectiveness exerted by the two is not at the same level. The major European powers are even willing to spend several times the price in exchange for more veterans instead of new recruits.

The greatest role of penicillin is to save the lives of elite soldiers as much as possible and ensure the combat capability of the army.

Establishing a unified medical group to be responsible for medical research and drug production in Australasia will not only improve the efficiency of research and production, but also reduce the waste of personnel and materials.

If we can take the opportunity to expand Australasia's medical reputation, the medical market in Australasia will not be vacant even after the war. This will be a sure-profit deal.

Anyway, the most important thing the royal consortium currently lacks is money. The cost of establishing a unified medical group is a drop in the bucket for the royal consortium. What Arthur values ​​more is medical research and the production of medical supplies.

Of course, Arthur will not forget the domestic medical industry. Both universities and technical schools, at Arthur's request, have opened medical majors.

However, those trained in universities can serve as interns, but those trained in technical schools can only serve as nurses or medical assistants.

Of course, this is not a gap in academic qualifications. After all, university training takes four years and uses a variety of advanced instruments and excellent teachers.

However, training in technical schools often only takes half a year to one year. The gap in knowledge and abilities also determines that there is a gap between technical school and university graduates at the beginning.

However, this gap can be made up later. As long as students graduating from technical schools are highly enterprising in their profession, it is not difficult to become a qualified doctor.

In fact, this also reflects some shortcomings in the current education in Australasia. There are no universities that specialize in a certain aspect, such as medical universities.

After careful consideration, Arthur decided to establish a medical university and a normal university to cultivate more medical and educational talents for Australasia.

The initial scale of these two universities should not be too large. The average annual enrollment is limited to about 800 to 1,000 students. They are universities that specialize in cultivating talents in a fixed direction.

Of course, Arthur just gave a plan. How and where a specific university should be built needs to be decided by the education department, and Arthur only needs one result.

In addition, Arthur also decided to subdivide the current Royal Military College and split it into multiple military universities.

The current Royal Military Academy has been in operation for more than four years.

With the first batch of graduates from the Royal Military Academy graduating and entering the army, the Military Academy is officially on track.

However, the current sources of students at the Royal Military Academy are too mixed, including civilians, the military, and even international students from foreign countries.

After careful consideration, Arthur decided to distinguish civilian students from military students, while foreign students were classified into civilian students.

It is initially expected that the Royal Military College will be split into the Royal Military College Sydney and the Royal Military College Melbourne.

The Royal Military Academy in Sydney is responsible for the training of civilian cadets, foreign students and senior military officers.

This also means that the four-year graduates of the Royal Military Academy in Sydney will have a rank of second lieutenant or above when they first enter the army. If they perform well, they can even obtain the rank of lieutenant.

These graduates are the mainstay of the Australasian army. No matter how bad they are, they should have no problem becoming a school-level officer.

Although the Royal Military Academy in Sydney also recruits students from the military, it has certain requirements for the rank of soldiers.

Those who can come to the Royal Military College in Sydney are generally lieutenant-level and school-level officers.

They will receive senior officer training at the Royal Military College in Sydney. After graduating from lieutenant-level officers, their military ranks can be promoted by one to two levels. After graduating from school-level officers, they can generally be promoted by one or more levels.

In other words, the military trainees accepted by the Royal Military College in Sydney are basically identified as potential officers who have been specially trained and may become regimental commanders and division commanders at the top level of the military in the future.

As for corps commanders above division commanders or even group army commanders, sorry, this is not something that can be considered in Australasia at the moment.

The main function of the newly established Royal Military College in Melbourne is to train low-level officers for the army, that is, lieutenants and below.

This also leads to the fact that the admissions requirements for the Royal Military Academy in Melbourne are very simple. Civilian students only require a junior high school diploma and conscription conditions, while military students only need to join the army for one year and perform well in the army.

Even the Royal Military College in Melbourne is theoretically open to Aboriginal soldiers from the Aboriginal divisions. After all, the low-level officers of the Aboriginal divisions cannot be all Australasians.

To put it bluntly, the role of the indigenous divisions is to become cannon fodder and bear the casualties for the Australasian army.

In such an army, there is no need for Australasians to serve as the lowest-level officers. It is no problem for the indigenous people to become a lower-level officer with simple training.

However, even if it is only the lowest level officer training opportunity, there will not be too many places in the indigenous division.

Moreover, after these indigenous people enter the military academy, they will be subject to stricter supervision and are prohibited from carrying weapons under any circumstances.

The only chance they have to encounter a gun may be the target training organized by the military academy every once in a while.

After all, the safety of other students at the military academy and the outside world must be considered. Even though these indigenous people are also soldiers of Australasia, their loyalty cannot be completely guaranteed.

If there are more extreme elements who abscond with weapons, this will be a huge threat to the security environment and people's lives in Australasia, and it is also a harm that must not happen.
