Chapter 5: K ö nigsberg Youth Academy

Chapter 5: K ö nigsberg Youth Academy At night, Chen Tian lay in his bathtub with his eyes closed, feeling extremely comfortable all over. At this moment, his butler Zack was respectfully standing aside. Steward, help me with two things. The first thing is that the guards found a little girl named Alice in my village. She and her family saved me. You can invite her and her family to visit the castle. If they are willing to stay, help her parents find something to do in the castle. If they are unwilling, give them some money to help build a bigger house for their family Yes, Your Highness! "Zack is a thin old man, but he is very shrewd in handling things. Another thing is that I want to attend the best military academy in Germany. Can you help me with it However, Your Highness, at your current age, even if you enter a youth academy, you are still too young, "Zack replied. Moreover, in your esteemed capacity, you can currently hire a private instructor. When you grow up, you can fully enter the Royal Army Academy to study directly Oh! That's also good! Can I establish my own youth academy? Learning alone is too boring Of course, but are you sure this is really fun What! I'm not just here to play, I'm not a child anymore! Then go help me prepare and tell my father by the way. I don't think he'll object either. And as for the instructor, make sure to find some top-notch ones! Ideally, they should be heroes who have participated in the wars between Puau and France Yes, Your Highness! "Zack walked up to the door and turned around to say," But I have to remind you that military academies are very strict and hardworking. If you become a deserter, you will be laughed at by everyone, hehe How is that possible? Zack, don't underestimate me! There should be no problem with the funding aspect, right Hehe! I believe Your Highness will not disappoint us. Don't worry about the funds. As the Prince of East Prussia, although you don't have much real power yet, you are very wealthy. Besides, there is also a powerful butler like me, isn't there? Hehe This Zack always treats me like a child, hmm! However, in fact, even Chen Tian's parents treated his actions as a child's game. After all, he was the Prince of East Prussia, so he was left to his own devices. He couldn't come up with any tricks anyway, but repeatedly instructed Zack to find good instructors and not to mistake other people's children. A few months later, the K ö nigsberg Youth Academy funded by Gigi Wilhelm was completed. According to Chen Tian's request, the military academy invited more than ten intermediate officers who had served in the Prussian army and participated in the Franco Prussian War as instructors, and the students in the military academy were selected from the East Prussian region. What surprised and delighted Chen Tian the most was that the chief instructor Zack invited for the military academy was Paul von Hindenburg, a lieutenant colonel and staff officer stationed in East Prussia. Although his military skills were already well-known in the East Prussian garrison at that time, Chen Tian knew that it was not until World War I that Hindenburg commanded the Eastern German Austrian coalition and achieved a series of brilliant victories in the war against Russia that he reached the pinnacle of his life. Therefore, he was also praised by the Germans as the "God of Protection". With such a chief instructor, Chen Tian feels like he has really found a treasure, no, he should say he has found a treasure. Oh! Brother Mengjiang, please help me sign my name! To enter the K ö nigsberg Youth Academy, one does not need any noble status or family background, does not need to pay tuition fees, and also has some living allowances. The age range is 6-10 years old, as long as one can pass a simple entrance exam. Of course, simplicity is only for Chen Tian, who sets the questions. In fact, there are very few people who can pass the entrance exam: The first item is for each person to state their own purpose for applying to a military academy. Any children who are at a loss will be eliminated because this is not a daycare center, and it is better to stay at home if they dare not speak;Even more exaggerated is when someone says things like 'admiration for the prince', sweat a little! Those who are too young to learn will be eliminated! As long as there are reasonable reasons, it can be approved. The elimination rate in this stage is 20%. (Thank you to Pinocchio for your support in this section! ) The second item is a basic physical examination, which can be passed as long as the body is healthy. The elimination rate in this stage is 5%. (Thank you to Mr. Moa, the veterinarian, for his great assistance in this process! ) The last exam is very simple, with only three questions: 1. What question does the other person always tell you 'no' when answering? (Are you asleep? ) 2. Which is more painful, hitting the head with a stone or a stick? (Head) 3. There is a man who was born to your parents, but he is not your brother and sisters. Who is he? (oneself) The elimination rate in this stage is as high as 96%! (Thank you to the Chinese people for coming up with such a classic brain teaser question. ) In the end, only 49 children stood out from thousands of applicants and entered the first semester of the K ö nigsberg Youth Academy with Chen Tian. This result made Chen Tian sigh deeply, indicating that German thinking is indeed as rigid as the legend suggests. Being rigid is not necessarily wrong. A rigid soldier may be a good soldier, but a commander who holds the lives of millions of people is not. Jiji, are you really going to live in the military academy? The conditions there don't seem to be very good, and I think you won't adapt. Why don't you still live in the castle and have someone take you to the military academy every day? "In Jiji's mother's opinion, her son is only under seven years old, and although the military academy has good facilities due to its small size, it still worries her. Mom, don't worry! I want to be a qualified soldier! "Chen Tian said indifferently. For his parents in this world, he didn't feel too much affection. Many times, he still thinks of his parents, his younger brother, and the happy time they spent together as a family. Don't worry, he's already a little man! Hahaha! "However, Gigi's father strongly supports his son's actions. In his eyes, his son's strong military tendency at such a young age is a great thing for the increasingly powerful German Empire. He will definitely become an excellent prince, just like himself. The youth academy in the western suburbs of K ö nigsberg. Thomas is one of the 49 students who have already registered, and they have been assigned to 5 dormitories. There are currently 9 people living in Room 2 where Thomas is located, and only his upper bunk is temporarily empty. Thomas is 8 years old this year and the son of a farmer. His family is very poor, so he heard that this military academy not only does not require tuition fees, but also offers a subsidy of 10 marks. His father rushed over overnight with him and his 6-year-old brother to register. Unfortunately, his younger brother trembled and didn't dare to speak in front of the fierce looking examiner, and was eliminated in the first round. But I'm feeling good now. Not only do I have enough to eat every day, but I can also attend classes with Prince William. There will definitely be a chance to show off my skills in the future. Thomas looked at the bed next to him, his "neighbor" a chubby little blond haired man with curly hair, still eating non-stop. Hi! My name is Thomas Burdalich, how are you Well, hello! My name is Ollie Kahn! Come on, let's have an apple! My dad has packed too much food for me! "Ollie handed an apple and pointed to his luggage, which was really full of food, eggs, bread, and even ham. Thank you! Your family is so exaggerated, bringing so many things! I only brought some clothes, but this is a military academy! Maybe these foods will be taken away by the instructor soon Yeah! It's not allowed to keep food privately here! But if possible, I can help you eat together Thomas and Ollie lifted their heads together, and a blond boy was standing in front of them with a big bag on his back. Hello, Gianluji William! "Chen Tian smiled and extended his right hand.
