Dominate the Country

No matter how upset you are, you have to go to school. Students have to go to school. Zhu Min goes to school earlier than Zhou Zhen, because Zhou Zhen has a horse-drawn carriage, and if Zhu Min can't squeeze into the public carriage, he can only take the '11' bus. Usually Zhu Min goes to school on foot, because this allows him to save money for the public carriage.

Today Zhou Zhen left home on a bicycle.

He didn't want to ride a bicycle, which is a bit unsafe. Even if it is a product of the old brand Huang's Qiwuju, it may still break down halfway. Many parts of today's iron bicycles still need to be made by hand.

The sun at seven o'clock has turned into a dazzling golden disk. The morning mist has disappeared, and the sun shines on people warmly. There are breakfast stalls shouting along the way. There are many breakfast stalls in Dongjing City. Some families will directly give money to their children to buy food outside in the morning. If the adults at home don't go to work on time, they can sleep a little longer.

During the war, every factory was full of people and machines, running all night and non-stop. Don't expect a day's rest every ten days, and you'll be fine if you can rest for half a day. Sleeping in is really a very beautiful and wonderful thing!

Many pedestrians poured out from the alleys in the city, and the bustling people walked towards their respective destinations. The sound of horse bells and whips was loud, and countless carriages and people were shuttling back and forth on the road. From time to time, a fast horse would pass through the special horse path at high speed.

Throughout the Chinese influence area, the importance of horses has become more and more important. No one rides sedan chairs anymore, but dignitaries can't ride on the 11th road, so they either ride in carriages or ride horses.

Zhu Min rushed to school with his head down, and a series of crisp car bells came from behind him.

"Hey! Zhu Min,...what's wrong with you today? You look listless."

Because of his father's position, Zhou Zhen is the leader of all the children of the gold mine in the Eighth High School, and he is also proud of his "prestige".

"Zhou Zhen, why are you riding your bike by yourself today?" Zhu Min turned around and saw Zhou Zhen behind him, riding his bike with a cheerful smile on his face. Zhu Min, who was in a bad mood, forced a smile towards Zhou Zhen.

Zhu Min and Zhou Zhen are classmates. In Zhu Min's family, Zhou Zhen is the "child of other people's family" and the role model set up for Zhu Min by Zhu Yishan and Bai Mei. In the entire company's family area, there is no other "young talent" like Zhou Zhen. He has a good family background and is handsome. Although his academic performance is not the best in the school, it is also among the best. At least he has never fallen out of the top 20. Such a score is enough to be admitted to a regular university in the country, or at least to a junior college.

In Tokyo, the Eighth High School is one of the few first-class senior high schools in the region. Every year, 30 to 40 students can be admitted to domestic colleges and universities in the college entrance examination. You should know that the rate of high school students in China who can be admitted to colleges and universities is less than 5%. The Eighth High School has six classes in each stage, and each class can have 50 to 60 people. There are only more than 300 people in the third year of high school, which is a 10% enrollment rate. Such a high ratio is also a key high school in a prefecture in China, and it is definitely more amazing in America.

Zhou Zhen's grades can remain in the top 20 in the stage, which can be said to have hope for university. This is much better than his brother's private technical secondary school, and it also makes his father very proud.

However, Zhu Min is different from Zhou Zhen. As mentioned in the previous article, Zhu Min's grades are not very good. There are more than 300 people in the whole stage, and it is good for him to be close to the top 100. How can such a score be admitted to colleges and universities? Even going to vocational high school is difficult.

But Zhu Min is not without advantages. He is good at sports and has a strong body. He is good at long-distance running, shot put and football. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a sports academy in China at this time.

Emperor Chen also thought about holding a large-scale sports meeting, not only representatives from various provinces in the country, but also vassal states such as Siam and Japan. But the conditions are really immature. Just transportation is enough. To hold a sports meeting, at least the domestic railways must be laid out in a large cross, or only small and medium-sized provincial-level sports meetings can be held.

"I didn't let Wang Bo send it." Zhou Zhen said afterwards. Seeing Zhu Min's ugly face, Zhou Zhen asked with concern: "But you, what's wrong with you? You are as dejected as a defeated rooster?"

Zhou Zhen lowered his head and kicked a small stone on the ground in front of him. The gray stone drew a parabola in the air, fell to the ground, and rolled a few times. Staring at the direction where the pebble disappeared, Zhou Zhen said weakly: "What else can it be? It's still a matter of being a soldier..."

Zhu Min and Zhou Zhen are friends, so he just said what was in his mind. Zhou Zhen was silent for a while. As a child of the gold company, he knew the Zhu family. Although Zhu Yishan was not a high-ranking official, he was very arrogant. And Zhu Yishan also had the capital to be arrogant. His eldest son Zhu Peng studied at Jinling University. From the eighth high school to the gold mine children's school, Zhu Peng was the best in the past ten or twenty years.

The name of Jinling University was originally Didu University, and later changed to Jinling. It was a key university ranked only below the Political College, the University of Political Science and Law, the Imperial Academy, and the Imperial College. Who dares to look down on it?

The younger brother of a college student at Jinling University went to be a soldier. You can tell with your ass that Zhu Yishan would never agree.

Zhou Zhen's consolation was useless. Zhu Min looked up at the red sun in the east and said, "Do you know who I envy the most now? I envy Mu Wu the most. His father is 100% willing for Mu Wu to join the army."

As a Japanese, Mu Wu, although he has a Chinese name, he is not Chinese. His family has a yellow book, and whether they want to change to a red book depends on Mu Wu's performance in the army. As long as they don't make mistakes in the first three years, Mu Wu's family can become real Chinese.

The family of Aoki Takeichiro, whose surname is Aoki, has nothing to do with Aoki Chuichi, who is a well-known representative of naturalized Japanese. The only connection between Aoki Takeichiro and Aoki Chuichi is that they both have the surname "Aoki".

There are several people like Mu Wu in the Eighth High School. Regardless of their grades, all of them participated in the registration and physical examination on the first day.

Zhu Min has been overwhelmed by the word "university" for a while. He really envies Mu Wu now.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhu, hello."

When Zhou Zhen and Zhu Min were walking together and felt a little bored, a voice rang beside them. When they turned around, they saw a man in a neat navy blue school uniform, not tall but very strong. It was the Japanese Mu Wu that Zhu Min had just mentioned.

When Mu Wu was ten years old, he followed his family to Tokyo to open a restaurant. His uncle was a veteran of the Survival Corps. He had long since joined the Chinese nationality and his surname was changed to a single-character Chinese surname - Mu.

But at the beginning, Mu Wu's father did not have the courage of his uncle and stayed in Japan all the time. Naturally, he could not obtain Chinese nationality like his uncle. Now Mu Wu's Japanese restaurant business is not bad, and economically it can be said to be middle class, but no one in the family wants to go back to Japan.

The money earned is not small, and Mu Wu's academic performance is also very good, not worse than Zhou Zhen. But with such grades and his identity, it is unlikely that he will be admitted to a military academy in the college entrance examination. Mu Wu's Japanese nationality is too comprehensive for him. However, Mu Wu's family is very obsessed with Chinese nationality. For Mu Wu's family, who never want to return to Japan, they need to go to the local police station every year to register and review. This is the biggest pain for Mu Wu and his family.

Mu Wu was not the only one who signed up for the army on the first day of the entire Eighth High School. According to what Zhou Zhen knew, he could easily name four or five people. They were all foreigners.

Thirty-five years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the social status of soldiers is very high regardless of their income. The status of soldiers in China has not changed at all!

The country has always praised soldiers again and again.

This time, an emergency mobilization order was issued, and the standards for joining the army plummeted. For people like Mu Wu, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Otherwise, if he wanted to work for Chen Han, he could only go to the security team and the volunteer team.

That's right. The current security team and the volunteer team are no longer the forbidden fruit of Japan. The poor people of Siam and Gurkha are also trying their best to get in. Especially the Gurkhas, who posed a great threat to the Japanese. Siam is better. It is close to the sea and the South China Sea. As long as you are willing to work hard, it is not difficult to survive.

Gurkha is a mountainous country. There are assholes who don't care about their lives everywhere in the poor valleys. Yes, for the Japanese, the Gurkhas who compete with them for food are standard assholes. And now Mu Wu and his team can directly enter the garrison army, which is a step to heaven.

Some foreign students under the age of 18 in the school were upset and slammed their heads.

"Good morning, Mu Wu." Zhu Min and Zhou Zhen greeted Mu Wu at the same time, and Zhu Min's tone seemed a little stiff.

But Mu Wu didn't think it was strange at all. There is a recognized perception in Chinese society today that the Japanese are very polite, and Mu Wu behaved modestly and politely in school.

The three of them talked a little bit, and saw the school gate at 7:40. The principal was standing guard at the school gate as usual, but at this moment, he was looking at the two soldiers in uniform beside him with a look of dissatisfaction.

Principal Zhang was more informed than the average student. He knew that Panama had urgently transferred 5,000 blacks to the Florida Peninsula. He wanted to yell at the official governor of the garrison, is it necessary to recruit soldiers to the school? Don't you know how precious high school students are?

Such academic qualifications can be editors in some tabloids.

Principal Zhang didn't know how tense the United States was at the moment, and many people didn't know that the United States had mobilized the whole country.

In order to inspire the enthusiasm of the people to join the army to defend the country and inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers, the Americans directly copied Chen Han's system of using land instead of wages, and the Americans were more ambitious.

The last bill signed by Jefferson before he stepped down as US President was called the Military Land Act.

The Military Land Act stipulates that any head of a family or a citizen of the United States who is 20 years of age or older can register for a total of no more than 100 acres (1 acre = 0.40 hectares) of land in the western region after joining the military. If the registrant lives on the land and cultivates it for 5 years, he or she can obtain a land license and become the owner of the land. The Military Land Act also stipulates a compensation clause, that is, if the registrant applies for priority purchase, he or she can purchase the land at a price of $1 per acre after 6 months.

In order to improve the enthusiasm and fighting spirit of the army, the Americans have spared no effort.

In history, the United States only signed a similar Homestead Act during the Civil War, and the Military Land Act more directly targets the army.

Compared with the mobilization strength of the United States, what is an emergency mobilization order from the garrison army?
