The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 687

With the energy of Situ Nan, it is not difficult for MacArthur to get the post of head of the Olympic delegation. However, in order to settle some relations, Situ Nan had to sponsor the US delegation of US$100,000.

Of course, this is sponsored in the name of Cummins Electric Company, and it can be regarded as an advertisement for Cummins Electric....

The car stopped at the entrance of the school, and Situ Nan got off and walked into West Point Military Academy.Past and present, this is the first time he has come to West Point, although he often stays in the villa area not far from the lower reaches of the Hudson River.

"Master, this school does not look like a military academy! Compared with our military academies in New Tangshan, Guangzhou, and Nanning, it is not murderous at all."

He Yongyuan walked beside Situ Nan and whispered.He speaks Chinese, and no one understands even if he speaks it out loud, but Situ Nan appreciates his caution.

"Does it feel similar to the University of William?" Situ Nan smiled.

"Yes!"

"I think so too. But whether it's an army or a general, it will be murderous, which is not a big deal. Now the army establishment is greatly compressed, so the West Point Military Academy... If you go to the Annapolis Navy Take a look at the military academy, the situation is quite different."

Situ Nan smiled and visited the school with great interest.The military academy is open to each other, which is probably what the Yankees did.

Objectively speaking, the West Point Military Academy is not beautiful at all. The architectural design of the diamond-shaped bunker is rather rigid. Of course, the military education here is not the best in the world.

However, Situ Nan likes this school very much, because it not only trains soldiers who can fight, but also cultivates talents with sound personality, self-reliance and charisma.

When Sun Liren in a uniform appeared in front of Situ Nan, Situ Nan was slightly surprised.

Tall, tall and strong, with a decent uniform, it looks a bit mighty.The baby face has not changed, and is still slightly childish, but the corners of the eyebrows are a little harder, especially the confident eyes, which makes it difficult for Situ Nan to connect with the ignorant and childish youth four years ago.

"It looks good, it looks like a general's material!" Situ Nan looked at Sun Liren with a resolute face and nodded in satisfaction.

"Haha! Thank you Mr. Situ for your care." Sun Liren saluted him. Without Situ Nan he would not easily enter West Point Military Academy.

Four years ago, Sun Liren was funded by the William Foundation to study at the University of William in the United States. He sat on the William of Situ Nan.The short one-month journey on the ship made Sun Liren unforgettable.

In his impression, Situ Nan is a mysterious, powerful and powerful man, as well as a gentle friend, able to put down the air and compete with himself.

Soon after entering the University of William, Sun Liren got an opportunity to directly participate in the selection examination of the West Point Military Academy in the name of a South China student.

According to the normal procedures, it is not easy for Sun Liren to enter the West Point Military Academy. First, he must obtain a diploma, and then get the recommendation of the school or councillors, and then negotiate with the officials of the Army Education Department. Only after passing the exam can he enter the West Point Military Academy.

Soldiers who do not want to be generals are not good soldiers. This sentence is correct, but it is not suitable for the US military.Because no matter how many American soldiers are, without a military school diploma, it is absolutely impossible to become an officer, only a non-commissioned officer.

Although the Sergeant Major is also very good, he is not a general after all.For young Americans who aspire to enter the military and enter the upper class, it is more difficult to enter West Point Military Academy than to enter Harvard.

Sun Liren didn't know this at first, but after spending a long time with his schoolmates, he realized how lucky he was.Whenever I think of this, I will secretly thank Situ Nan.

"The school has a very high evaluation of you. It seems that you have worked hard and did not disappoint me."

Looking at Sun Liren who was grateful, Situ Nan smiled slightly and patted Sun Liren on the shoulder."In the blink of an eye, four years have passed, and you are about to graduate. Time flies."

"Yes! It feels like a dream." Sun Liren said with emotion.

The competition at West Point Military Academy is fierce. Everyone must try their best to express themselves, and they will be eliminated if they relax.In addition to military training, there are also a large number of cultural courses. Basically everything must be learned. The course design is no different from that of universities in New York. It is a very difficult challenge.

After MacArthur reformed the West Point Military Academy, West Point School joined various sports programs, and the physical education curriculum accounted for 15% of the total curriculum. Therefore, West Point students are not only soldiers, bachelors or athletes.

Tired like a dog every day, basically no time to think about other things.Sun Liren has entered New York City less than five times during his four years at West Point.The rest of the time stays in school. As for returning to China, it is impossible.

"At first I thought it was very honorable to enter here. After I came in, I realized that West Point is much more difficult to mix than William University. If I had known this, I might have stayed at William University. Maybe I could still follow Nikola? How about Professor Tesla? ."

Sun Liren looked at Situ Nan sadly.Had it not been for Situ Nan's flicker, he wouldn't have thought of going to military school.

"You also know Nikola? Tesla?" Situ Nan asked, "Of course. The school teaches radio in a special course. The recent news often reports a series of successes he has achieved. Some of my classmates happened to follow Nikola? Mr. Tesla studies and writes occasionally." Sun Liren replied.

"Why? Envy them?" Situ Nan smiled, "Don't envy them, I have my own way, maybe they envy you in the future? In my opinion, you can graduate from West Point in 38th place, just It's amazing!"

"That's true." Sun Liren nodded, showing a trace of complacency.Among the current graduates, Sun Liren's performance is quite outstanding.

And the graduates of the West Point Military Academy who return to China will definitely be sweet and delicious, becoming the target of various forces.For example, Wang Geng, who graduated from Sun Liren a few years ago, returned to China and became a general a few years ago.If nothing happens, it is not too difficult for Sun Liren to become a general after returning to China, so he has always been confident in his future.

What worries him is that he entered West Point under the name of a South China student. Will he be required to serve in South China?

Thinking of this, Sun Liren was a little complicated.He is about to leave school soon, and he hasn't decided where to go next.

"Just worry about this?" Situ Nan was delighted to hear it.

"Yes! If possible, I hope to return to my country and serve my country." Sun Liren said firmly.

"Very good! Join that force?" Situ Nan asked with a smile, "Is the Beijing government?"

Sun Liren was startled, a little dazed, and nodded.

"Wu Peifu or Cao Kun?"

"Wu Peifu!"

"Is there a way?"

"Somewhat. General Wang Geng wrote to me."

"Stupid!"

"Ok?"

"I really don't understand anything! If I were you, I would first write a letter of recommendation from the principal of West Point, and then take this letter of recommendation to the Chinese Consulate in the United States, and find the way first. Go back to China and then find the American Consulate. Lift up your frame, so that the military leaders in the country will also think highly of you."

Situ Nan Education Road, shook his head again."However, I am still not optimistic about you."

"why?"

"It's very simple. Being a soldier in China is not that simple. The ability to fight is not the most important thing. The key is to learn to engage in relationships. Graduates of regular military schools like you do not smoke, prostitute, or gamble, tell lies, or do bad things. The Americans have trained you to be an upright and principled person. Everything is done in accordance with the rules, but they did not teach you to form a party for private business. It will be difficult to get mixed up back in China. Your brother Wang Geng is a good example. He is not The Beiyang system came out of it, so it has the name of a general but not the actual commander."

Situ Nan explained.

Sun Liren was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.Then he asked Situ Nan, "Then how should I choose? Should I go to Guangzhou?"

Having said that, Sun Liren raised his head and looked at Situ Nan with concern.In fact, he knew that Situ Nan was very capable, and if he was introduced, things would go smoothly.

What made him grateful was that from beginning to end, Situ Nan spoke to him in an equal manner, without any pretensions.Maybe he wants to go to Nanhua by himself?

Sun Liren knew that since Situ Nan had a close relationship with the University of William, the University of William also recruited a large number of Chinese students, and South China had a close relationship with the University of William and the Chinese world in the United States, so he naturally thought that Situ Nan had extensive contacts in South China or the Guangzhou regime.

Sun Liren didn't know much about Situ Nan, and he would have some thoughts for granted.And Situ Nan has never publicized his identity.

Regarding Sun Liren’s question, he smiled faintly: “It’s hard to tell the specifics. You’ll know if you have the opportunity to experience it yourself. I’m just sharing your views on the country. As long as you have the skills, you will always get ahead.”

The current domestic problem is not a military problem at all. Even if Situ Nan talks to Sun Liren more, it will not help. After all, the other party is just a rookie who hasn't left the school.When he grows up, it will be at least ten and a half years later.What is certain is that Sun Liren will not join the Beiyang government, and even if he joins, he will not make a difference, so it must be his own food in the end.

"By the way, I came here specifically to play with you today." Situ Nan said suddenly.

"Playing?" Sun Liren was startled, remembering the scene of being ravaged by Situ Nan on the William four years ago. He immediately laughed, "Okay!"
