Rebirth of the National Marshal

Qiu Qingquan wanted to say something, but after hearing what Mao Yuanshan said, he swallowed the rest of his words. Now was indeed not the time to take the initiative to attack, even though the reinforcements were coming and his side had reached 17 people.

However, to attack Irkutsk, at least 10 troops must be mobilized. That place is already deep in the heart of the Soviet Union, and the air force there has also been assembled. I heard that there are more than 200 planes.

It is already very difficult for the more than 400 aircraft of the Security Corps to undertake the air defense mission in Mongolia and the newly occupied 20 square kilometers. Although they are equipped with some anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, for air defense, the most important thing is to occupy the air supremacy. These land-based air defense weapons can only play an embellishment role, not the main air defense weapons.

Although the armored regiment's attack is very powerful, it must be done under the condition of having control of the air. If it does not have control of the air, the armored regiment under Marshal Timoshenko is an example. It was killed by Mao Yuanshan's Air Force just after it assembled. Qiu Qingquan does not want all of his precious Gada to be killed. That is not acceptable. When facing aircraft, the armored regiment has almost no ability to fight back.

"You don't have to worry too much. I have already made plans for you. The next batch will have 100 brand new Tiger tanks shipped here. You can expand your armored regiment into two armored regiments. As for the personnel, you can look for them among the people around here. Now our armored force is still too weak. Your old boss has already gone ahead of you in this regard. He has brought me four armored regiments in the Northeast." The speed at which Sun Liren pulled the team together was absolutely astonishing to the entire army.

This guy actually trained four armored regiments in a short period of time. When he asked Mao Yuanshan for 500 Tiger tanks, Mao Yuanshan was stunned. You know, there is no problem in adding these tanks, but the amount of fuel used by these tanks is absolutely astronomical.

Speaking of his old superior, Qiu Qingquan was speechless. He was impressed by his old superior's speed in pulling the team. However, the actual situation was here. The place I was in was a Soviet place. Could I pull the Soviets to serve as tank soldiers for me? I could only look for some good seedlings among the infantry who were more suitable.

Qiu Qingquan was also in a dilemma, but it was different for Sun Liren. He was in China, and China had accumulated a lot of students over the years. As long as they had a junior high school education, they could basically become a qualified tank soldier after a period of training.

"It's not that I didn't work hard. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers here are all assigned to their own positions. If I want to recruit one of them to be a tank soldier, his old boss will definitely eat me up. In just the past few days, I have only found three or four hundred people. If I want to expand further, that is impossible. These three or four hundred people have already made me offend a lot of people." Although Qiu Qingquan had Mao Yuanshan's order, everyone knew the importance of talent. Those who could be armored soldiers were outstanding even in their original units. Why would others hand such a good seedling to you? Although they know that armored soldiers are more important, other units also need talents. You can go to other units to recruit them. This kind of small group thinking is still quite popular in the entire army.

"To be honest, there are too few talented people in our country. If our country had more talented people, this situation would not occur and everyone would not cherish it so much. I know that the general education level in Germany or the United States is much better than it is now, so after I return this time, I will vigorously develop compulsory education in our country." This is the first time that Mao Yuanshan proposed this term.

Qiu Qingquan on the side was a little stunned. What is compulsory education? He had never heard of it before. In China, the population is so large that if one out of 100 people can read, it is already quite good.

"Boss, what is this compulsory education you're talking about? I don't understand it." Mao Yuanshan would often utter similar words. Although the people under him were already talents of this era, they still often couldn't understand these issues.

"The so-called compulsory education means sending a child to school when he is a child, and all his expenses during school will be borne by our government. If the family is in financial difficulty, we will give them a certain amount of subsidy. This is compulsory education." If you are a person who grew up in the new society, even a child understands what nine years of compulsory education means, but this term is still too new to people of this era.

What Qiu Qingquan doesn't understand is why we should give subsidies to others for nothing. Although education is very important, how much money will it cost if we develop it in this way?

"Boss, I really don't know what to say about your idea. It may be very good for the entire nation, but for our government, have you ever thought about how much money it will cost? Let me give you an example. From the time a child starts elementary school to the time he graduates from junior high school, each person has to pay at least 15 yuan in tuition. As you said, other books and school supplies, plus the clothes they wear, this number will rise to more than 60 yuan. There is also the problem of their food, that is one more child, and it will not work if you don't have 100 yuan to train him. Let's not talk about how many children of school age there are in other places. As far as I know, there are 100 million children of the right age in our Chahar area alone. Spending 100 yuan on these 100 million people is definitely an astronomical figure, a full million yuan? Where can we raise this money? Besides, there are not so many schools now, let alone so many teachers." Although Qiu Qingquan is a soldier, he is very sensitive to numbers.

In an instant he roughly calculated the amount of money needed. In fact, Mao Yuanshan had already thought about the number he mentioned, and it was even higher than this number. That was because Mao Yuanshan wanted to provide students with better conditions, which definitely could not be satisfied by this number.
