After Shao Tianhu listened to Tan Tianming's suggestion, he immediately felt enlightened. He had been confused by the many combat subjects described by Gai Liangcai before, and had been hesitating about which subject he should take as his learning goal. Tan Tianming's guidance was like a cloud, and he suddenly understood how to make a choice.
Shao Tianhu is actually no stranger to amphibious operations. During the mission before coming to Sanya, the troops he commanded also conducted island landing operations many times. However, there were only imaginary enemies on the islands where they landed at that time. The troops did not encounter any substantial resistance during the landing process, which was still different from the real battlefield.
Shao Tianhu had also read in the newspaper how the Luzon Region attacked the Spanish colonies last year. The intensity of the amphibious landing battles there was obviously different, and even more so when attacking Cebu and other places. When it came to the stubborn resistance of the defenders, it was said that the battle was quite brutal, and our own troops also suffered a large number of casualties.
In such a battlefield environment, Shao Tianhu did not dare to say that his command level could still handle it calmly. He also wanted to know how a commander should organize and implement amphibious landing operations when facing an enemy with coastal defense forces.
And if you have to rely on yourself to explore and accumulate these advanced command skills bit by bit during the battle, the price you will pay will undoubtedly be very huge. The only shortcut is naturally to enter the military academy and directly learn the correct combat procedures summarized through countless combat cases.
Thinking of this, Shao Tianhu announced his choice firmly: "The second young master is right. If I can master the skills of amphibious combat command, I will definitely contribute more to Xingdao in the future. I will go back to Mr. Gai and ask him He helped settle the matter.”
Tan Tianming continued: "In addition to learning the ability to lead troops in war, you should also gain some other benefits if you go to the Army Academy for further studies this time."
Shao Tianhu said in confusion: "Second Young Master, please make it clear."
Tan Tianming said: "As far as I know, the students who can go to the Army Academy to study amphibious warfare are almost all elites in the military, and there are also people with prominent backgrounds. The more people you get to know at the Army Academy, it will also be good for your future development. It will be of great benefit.”
Tan Tianming didn't speak clearly, but Shao Tianhu also understood what he wanted to express. If he can make some high-level connections in the military during his training, the benefits he can get from it may not be much worse than the training itself.
The second-generation military personnel will basically complete their studies at the Army and Navy military academies before they reach the age of twenty, and amphibious warfare is almost one of their compulsory subjects.
Brothers like Ha Jianzhong and Ha Jianyi, Luo Shenghuai and Luo Shengding, Wang Anguo, Shi Chengwu, Chen Pingliao, Mu Zhennan, Tan Tianlei, Feng Xingbang, Xiao Zhengyang...these outstanding figures of the younger generation were all arranged by their parents to enter the military The academy has received such training, and it is very likely that Shao Tianhu will become classmates with some second-generation students after enrolling.
For Shao Tianhu's background, the value of these special connections is inestimable. If Tan Tianming didn't remind him, he might not think of this aspect.
Tan Tianming finally added: "But you must remember who gave you the opportunity to further your studies. When you become successful and famous in the future, don't forget to repay those who have given you kindness."
Shao Tianhu responded quickly: "Shao considers himself a descendant of Xingdao. No matter how he develops in the future, he will make Xingdao his home. He will definitely repay Master Luo and Master Tan for their cultivation!"
Tan Tianming saw him decisively expressing his attitude, and then nodded with satisfaction. If we talk about the risks of sending talents like Shao Tianhu to Sanya for training, perhaps the most worrying thing is that after they find a way, they will voluntarily change jobs and leave Xingdao. The resources invested by Star Island in the early stage were all wasted.
Therefore, the Sing Tao authorities must not only invest resources for talents to study abroad, but also find ways to ensure that their loyalty to Sing Tao is unbreakable.
As the son of Xingdao's second-in-command, Tan Tianming naturally has to protect Xingdao's interests at all times. For a talent like Shao Tianhu, just a few days after arriving in Sanya, people from all walks of life have come to visit him to establish relationships. If he doesn't express this, I'm afraid Shao Tianhu may not be able to hold on to so many temptations.
When Shao Tianhu was on Star Island, he was at best an excellent officer, but he couldn't be said to have particularly outstanding abilities. But from the day he arrived in Sanya, he unknowingly became a lucky man favored by fate.
Whether it was the Ministry of Security’s support for his reckless actions, or the Haihan newspaper’s front-page article praising him, or the honors and further study opportunities given by the Ministry of National Defense, these special treatment were not actually for him, but for Sanya In the game and exchange of interests with overseas regions, Shao Tianhu became a real beneficiary of this process.
With someone paving the way in advance and someone helping behind him, it was very easy for Shao Tianhu to walk on this Yangguan Avenue. Just a few days later, Gai Liangcai sent him a message back - registration at the Army Academy had been completed, and Shao Tianhu had chosen the amphibious warfare command major.
Shao Tianhu didn't even have to wait any longer, because the start of school was just around the corner.
According to Gai Liangcai, the study class was not scheduled to start at the Army Academy's normal start time. Because the students are almost all elites from various military units, it is not easy to bring these people together. It is also difficult to coordinate the start of the school year with the normal teaching of the college.
To put it bluntly, students in this major arrived in Sanya one after another, and when they almost had enough classes, they immediately arranged to start school.
With such a special arrangement, it is indeed difficult for students like Shao Tianhu who took the usual route to study at the Army Academy to get in when classes start. They can only choose a few general majors for mass students.
Gai Liangcai specifically told Shao Tianhu to report in advance on the first day of school, because there would be important people coming to inspect and he must not be absent. Even if there is any official business at the Xingdao office, it needs to be put aside first and go to the college to complete the registration procedures.
Shao Tianhu thought that this important person was probably the dean of the Army Academy or something like that, so he did not dare to neglect him at the moment and said hello to the people in the office in advance.
Needless to say, Shao Tianhu's prestige in the office now goes without saying. The temple of the office is too small. Everyone knows that this place cannot keep him, so they all let him go to the Army Academy with peace of mind and come back to the office when he is free. Take a look and just sign the documents that need to be signed.
