The Rise of the European Emperor

In the military academy of Beihai State, there is a very interesting course, that is chess course. Chess is actually a simplified version of the military flag, which tests people's determination. Moreover, by playing chess, it is easy to see the commanding tendency of a cadet.

For example, conservative people will also focus on defense when playing chess. The radicals, on the other hand, like to take risks, and even like to exchange sons. What you think in your heart can often be seen on the chessboard.

Moreover, the title of chess is similar to that of the army, which makes military school students feel more substituting. Playing chess is like fighting a war, which is in line with the ambitions of the children in the second grade.

In fact, there is also chess in Europe, called chess. However, chess moves randomly within 64 grids and can be moved diagonally. Although this rule is more flexible, it is different from the battlefield situation.

The two armies confronted each other, going straight and facing each other, most of them went straight, how could they turn so randomly? The rules of chess are not like two armies confronting each other, but rather like two bosses and younger brothers fighting against each other, which is relatively chaotic. However, this is in line with the national conditions of medieval Europe. Isn't it so casual when two small princes fight?

As for Huaxia Chess, although its moves are not flexible enough. However, going straight, opening and closing, is more like a war duel. Moreover, the duel between the two armies in the Chuhe-Han realm, coupled with the rule that pawns are only allowed to advance and not to retreat, is more like a duel on the battlefield, and it is more suitable as the basis for war games for military students. In addition, there are cannons in Chinese chess, which is more suitable for the war of this era.

Therefore, in the military academy of Beihai State, all students must know how to play Chinese chess, and it is one of the most basic courses. At the same time, it is also the most important recreational activity for students in their spare time.

As for the real war game deduction, to be honest, Marin doesn't know much. After all, he has never been to a military academy, and he has never been exposed to the war games of future generations of military academy students.

But he knows that the war games of later generations need to refer to the terrain, and are often carried out directly on the sand table. Moreover, there are many calculations, which need to take into account the marching speed of different arms, as well as casualties. Even details such as the transportation of grain and grass must be considered.

Therefore, wargaming is often a confrontation between teams rather than an individual confrontation. After all, one person's disadvantages are many people's strengths. The participation of multiple people can also better check for leaks and fill in vacancies.

However, real war games are too complicated. For military students who are still underage, it is beyond the scope of their ability. After all, the real war game has too much information, which not only tests ability, but also tests experience and experience.

Therefore, at the junior military academy stage, Marin only promoted Chinese chess, not complicated war chess deduction. Only at the university stage, those selected high-IQ outstanding people are eligible to participate in the game of war chess deduction using the sand table. Moreover, war game deduction is also a daily activity of the general staff.

Of course, there is another reason for not promoting wargame deduction now, besides the reason that it is beyond the capabilities of young military officers.

Although Marin is a time traveler, he never went to a military academy in his previous life. In my previous life, not to mention war games, I never used the sand table, I only saw it on TV.

Therefore, he is not familiar with the rules and calculation methods of wargame deduction. Therefore, he needs to explore with his generals. But his subordinates didn't even have the concept of war game deduction, they were inferior to him, and couldn't provide much help at all. Therefore, the revision of the rules of wargame deduction can only be completed by Marin himself.

He has produced several sets of plans, but his personal characteristics are too strong. Moreover, many very modern and advanced concepts and consciousness are not understood by others and cannot resonate with him. Therefore, he needs to continue to modify until he adapts to the thinking habits of most generals.

Moreover, through the revision of the war game deduction rules, Marin also discovered a very important problem-insufficient surveying and mapping capabilities...

The so-called surveying and mapping capabilities refer to the data collection and model restoration capabilities of mountains and rivers in specific combat areas.

Right now, although Beihai has a relatively good scout unit.

However, the scouts generally have a low level of education, especially poor geometric drawing ability. After all, the vast majority of scouts have never been to school and do not understand mathematics.

Therefore, it is good for those scouts to accurately describe the direction of the road and the direction of the river. It is difficult to perfectly restore the terrain. Therefore, a lot of information that Marin had obtained before was not actually able to make a sand table that 100% restored the situation on the battlefield. In this way, such a sand table naturally has many problems, and many places that can be used have been ignored due to technical reasons.

But this can't be blamed on those scouts. They are illiterate, illiterate, do not know geometry, and can't draw. It is good to find a suitable path. As for the appearance of mountains and rivers, it can only be roughly described. For example, the mountains are high and the water is deep...

Therefore, for the convenience of deduction, Marin has begun to set up surveying and mapping courses in Beihai ** School. Not only began to train surveyors, but also required artillery officers to be proficient in surveying and mapping.

Marin remembered that in history, the famous German general Moltke was an officer engaged in surveying and mapping, and he attached great importance to the application of technology. He regarded surveying and mapping as an important means of the army, also introduced statistics and geography, and attached great importance to railways and telegraphs. Therefore, in the Franco-Prussian War, the Prussian army mobilized and assembled faster and entered the battlefield faster, forming a local force advantage over the French army, and finally won the war.

Moreover, before the Anti-Japanese War, the devils also sent a large number of surveyors, disguised as businessmen or tourists, to travel all over China, surveying and mapping the topography, mountains and rivers in detail, and even mapped the layout of various cities for future reference.

Later, when the devils invaded China, the maps produced by the officers were much more accurate than the official maps of China. If it weren't for the fact that Huaxia is too big, the devils have limited manpower, and the subsequent difficulties in oil supply, who knows what serious consequences there will be.

Although it is said that devils are villains. However, for Marin, some of the devil's practices back then are also of reference for him. For example, if he wants to annex the northern half of Germany, he must make various preparations. For example, the direction of mountains and rivers, for example, is clear. In this way, it can bring a lot of convenience to marching and fighting. Where to fight, all you need is a military map.

For this reason, Marin decided to learn from the practices of the devils back then, and prepared to train a group of masters who are proficient in map surveying and mapping. Then, they were sent to disguise themselves as caravan members and traveled all over Germany to describe the mountains, rivers and roads in various places, in preparation for sending troops to annex these places in the future.

Because they are all Germans, Marin doesn't even need these surveying and mapping personnel to learn foreign languages, they only need to learn surveying and mapping techniques. After all, everyone speaks German and there is no need to learn another language. As for the dialect problem, it is not a big problem, as long as you can barely communicate. After all, even in later generations, it is not surprising to encounter a businessman with a foreign accent.

You know, back then, the devils asked those people to learn Chinese specifically for surveying and mapping, and the requirements were much higher than purely training surveyors. After all, in addition to understanding surveying and mapping, they also need to master a foreign language, which is very demanding.

The surveyors in Beihai country only need to know how to draw distances, heights, draw maps and mark contour lines.

As long as the surveying and mapping work is done well, when troops are sent to unify northern Germany in the future, it will be able to get twice the result with half the effort. Wherever you go, you can take out an extremely detailed military map to facilitate decision-making.

Moreover, if the surveying and mapping data is detailed, it can even restore the local terrain sand table for the officers to conduct war games and improve the chances of winning the battle...
