Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 10 College anecdotes
Qingpu Town is located in the eastern suburbs, only a few miles away from Qingyang Fucheng, and it is on the side of Qingyang's main road leading to Bonan and Guide, which can be regarded as a traffic hub. It was not originally a prosperous place, but after Northwest University and Northwest Military Academy were established here, they immediately brought a lot of business opportunities here. Businessmen flocked here like flies smelling rotten meat, and the number of hotels, restaurants, and various shops immediately increased tenfold, and even some entertainment venues began to prosper here. You know, the students here are all paid government and military officials.
When Wufeng, Ling Tianfang, and Lu Man arrived at the gate of the majestic Northwest Military Academy, they were immediately warmly welcomed by the academy's teachers and many students led by the academy's vice president Fei Mu.
Looking at Fei Mu and his party who came to welcome them, Wufeng himself felt a little embarrassed. A few years ago, he was still bowing his head and ears in front of these teachers, and his eyebrows were pleasing to the eye, fearing that he would not get the school's graduation certificate, but Only a few years later, this situation was reversed, and it became that they came to welcome their inspection. This kind of contrast makes Wufeng lament that the world is changing, the child of yesterday may be the hero of tomorrow, and who can say that the students who do not perform well in this school will not become famous heroes all over the world after leaving the school? Woolen cloth?
Seeing that Wufeng seemed to be distracted, Ling Tianfang coughed quickly and reminded: "My lord, Principal Fei and the others are here."
Only then did Wufeng come to his senses, he quickly got off the carriage, went to meet him, held Fei Mu's hands affectionately, and greeted the other teachers respectfully as a student.
Seeing the sincere respect on Wufeng's face, the embarrassment of Fei Mu and many other teachers was swept away, replaced by incomparable pride. Originally, they didn't pay much attention to the truant king who had gone to school, but they didn't expect that in just a few years, this little-known guy would skyrocket and become the third Jiedu Envoy in the history of the empire to hold a party's military and political power. The reputation has become a model for the younger generation of the empire, which really surprised the teachers in the academy and lamented the injustice of the world.
Fei Mu is a middle-aged man in his forties. He was originally the deputy director of the Imperial Military Academy. He was a high-achieving student at Imperial University in his early years. After graduation, he stayed at the school to teach for ten years, with a high reputation. He was later transferred to the Imperial Military Academy as the deputy dean. Dean Williams nominated him several times as the dean of the college and reported to the military department. He and the General Administration of Culture, Education and Health were both stranded by the above on the grounds that they were born in a lowly background and could not take on important positions.
Wufeng also respected him when he was studying in the academy. Not only was he knowledgeable, he was well-managed, but he also had a rigorous academic attitude, which earned him the respect of the students in the academy. He is also the backbone of the academy. But he was born as a commoner, so he was not liked by the upper echelon of the empire, and he has been unable to be promoted. When Wufeng was preparing to build the Northwest Military Academy, he applied for support from the Imperial Department of Culture, Education and Health and the Imperial Military Academy, and invited him first. Originally, Dean Williams didn't want to let him go, but he thought he couldn't help him to go to the next level. Lou had no choice but to agree regretfully.
Fei Mu himself was a bit hesitant at first. After all, the northwest is far away, and the living conditions are far worse than those of the imperial capital. His family has fled to the northwest, and he may never have the chance to return to the imperial capital. But even if he wanted to stay in the imperial capital, he would not be able to display his talents. Instead of being depressed all his life, he might as well go to the northwest to show his talents. The condition Wufeng offered was to be the vice president, and let him preside over the regular teaching work of the academy, and a monthly salary of 150 gold coins, which was more than double his salary at the Imperial Military Academy. With one wife and two concubines and several children, the whole family came to the northwest.
Under his example, many teachers from the Imperial Military Academy, Imperial University, and even the Imperial Academy of Art, who were restricted due to their backgrounds, followed suit and moved their families westward. Fortunately, Dean Williams promised Wufeng, Moreover, the relevant officials of the Imperial General Administration of Culture, Education and Health also benefited from Wufeng, and they all opened the door to convenience, so the migration of these people was successfully completed.
The gate of the Northwest Military Academy is quite grand and magnificent. The gate is large enough to accommodate three large carriages or 20 people in parallel without being crowded. Halberd, holding a knife and shield in one hand, looking straight ahead with both eyes, under the scorching sun, even though the sweat soaked the military uniform, it remained motionless.
When Wu Feng and his party passed by, the two officers did not look sideways, they simply stood at attention to salute, without any other cumbersome actions. Wufeng nodded in satisfaction, grinned silently, expressing his appreciation, seeing the leopard in a glimpse, it is indeed not easy to reach such a level in just a few months, so it can be seen that he has not misjudged the candidate.
Walking into the gate, you can see a huge bronze statue of three people. This is a famous product designed and made by Wufeng painstakingly by Luo Dan, a master sculptor of the empire generation----Across the World. On the left is an archer with a bent bow and an arrow, a rhino looking at the moon and about to shoot a Sirius. Although the entire sculpture of the leading infantry warrior is composed of three figures, it is full of harmony and unity. Especially the breath-holding facial expressions of the archers when shooting arrows, the unstoppable momentum of the cavalry galloping horses, and the indomitable determination of the infantry soldiers are all fully displayed under Rodin's spiritual hands.
The whole sculpture seems to be completely natural, without a single flaw, so that the viewers are all intoxicated in this unparalleled masterpiece.
The three figures represent the three main components of the army: cavalry, infantry, and auxiliaries.
Due to his age, Luo Dan has already lived in seclusion in his home in Heshuo County, and doesn't care about world affairs. But Wufeng made a humble statement and sent someone to the door three times to plead. In view of Wufeng's sincerity and Wufeng's high reputation in the empire, Rodin made an exception and accepted the request. After careful design, he created this unparalleled masterpiece. After completing this work, Rodin officially announced to the outside world that he would retire and rest, and would not make any more works, saying that this work called "Across the World" was his pinnacle work, surpassing any of his previous works.
On the pedestal at the lower end of this work, the words "Northwest Military Academy" are engraved on it. Although these words are like cutting with a knife and an axe, they are considered extraordinary, but compared with the above works, they are not above the same level, which makes the viewers feel sorry. What's more, those who don't know the situation say It is a dog-tailed sable, which seriously affects the image of the college. It is recommended to remove these words, and invite Wang Fuzhi or Gu Zhenqing from the famous calligrapher "Northern King and Southern Gu" to give a hand, but after carefully reading the words below these words After the signer, everyone fell silent.
It turns out that the following line of small characters is "Li Wufeng in a certain month in a certain year". It is said that during the inauguration ceremony of the academy, someone who proposed to delete these words was utterly utterly utterly ridiculous, and Wufeng came down and scolded him **** for this, until Wufeng agreed to invite Wufeng to the best romantic place in Qingyang at that time—the imperial concubine After spending three times in the hospital, Wu Feng finally gave up, and promised not to pursue him for the crime of destroying the reputation of his superiors.
But afterwards, when Hua Yumei, Lu Xianxian and Guan Yingying learned about this, they all laughed at Ai Lang for not being self-aware, and wanting to stand shoulder to shoulder with contemporary calligraphers. Wufeng didn't take it seriously, and explained confidently that he specialized in calligraphy, and his specialty was in governing the army. It is very rare for him to have such "accomplishments" in calligraphy. As soon as these few words came out, several women laughed so hard that they couldn't restrain themselves. The description of "a dog's tail continues to be a marten" spread like wildfire, and until decades later, it became one of the jokes in the Wufeng harem. Ling Wufeng has been brooding. Someone has also paid a painful price for decades. Whenever Wufeng suffers from it, he will find someone and ask for compensation, so as to "soothe the wounded soul" and make someone very annoying .
However, this move also played an unimaginable role in promoting the popularity of calligraphy in the empire in the future. Wufeng set strict requirements on his children in the following years, requiring them to have beautiful calligraphy, and equipped them with A dedicated court calligraphy teacher. Due to the attention of the emperor, it became common practice in all parts of the empire to pay attention to calligraphy, and the development of calligraphy entered a golden period of stability. Even someone's descendants bluntly said that their ancestors made outstanding contributions to the development of calligraphy.
Walking into the campus, there is a large-scale wrestling field with an area of several hundred acres. From a distance, there are horse tracks, running tracks, sand pits, open-air wrestling fields, training grounds, and competition platforms. Imperial Military Academy. On the right side of the arena are the classrooms and dormitories of the college. Red walls and green tiles ~IndoMTL.com~ Green trees. When Wufeng was just preparing to build the college, it proposed to build "four first-class", first-class facilities, first-class teachers, first-class discipline, and first-class standards.
The two schools spent a lot of money for this. Even Xiao Tang, who attaches great importance to education, thought it was too advanced and did not conform to the current situation, so he was quite critical. However, Wufeng insisted on going his own way and did not accept other people different opinions.
The graduation ceremony was held in the small auditorium of the college, and all the students of the college attended the ceremony. The ceremony was not complicated. First, Zhongli Wuji, the dean of the college, presided over the ceremony. Then Fei Mu made a brief speech and announced the outstanding students in the training. Then, the guests present presented honorary certificates to the award-winning students. , and finally Wufeng lectured.
Wufeng's speech was extremely brief, but quite succinct: "Everyone, you are all elites among our Northwest soldiers. Although the time to study here is not long, I hope that what you learn here is not only military knowledge, but also your will and wisdom. It is not difficult to become a soldier, but it is not difficult to become a soldier. To be a qualified military officer, one must have a calm mind, accurate judgment and steely will. Only with the above points can he be a real soldier. It is enough to gain something from the points mentioned.”
After the ceremony, Wufeng, Ling Tianfang, Lu Man, Fei Mu and Zhongli Wuji took a walk along a small lake at the east end of the academy. By the way, Wufeng also wanted to know about the operation of the academy. The environment here is quite beautiful, the lake is green and lush, full of ancient pines. This is also one of the reasons why Wufeng chose the address of the academy here.
