Formation of Military Acadamy

"Now that the internal security is settled, we move on to the military affairs department," Vijay addressed the council with a serious expression on his face.

"I have seen in recent days that our army is nowhere enough to protect a nation of 40 million people," he continued, his brows furrowing in concern.

Uncle Ravi wanted to object, but Vijay waved his hands and cut him off. "I know, Uncle, we don't have money for that, so I will not expand the army... for now," he said the last words silently, his expression showing a hint of disappointment.

Ravichandra reluctantly sat down.

"So I have decided to train a higher quality army, an army capable of taking on any force in our region (i.e., the Indian subcontinent)," Vijay declared, his eyes shining with determination.

He motioned to Logananda to distribute his plans among the council members, eager to share his vision with them.

"Gentlemen, with the grace of God, I came up with a plan to train an invincible army. Last night, Lord Shiva came into my dream and showed me how to train an army," Logananda said, his voice resonating with excitement.

Everyone was surprised by this revelation, it was the first time they had seen logananda so religious.

"You have seen the document; the way of training the army will be drastically different from what we have seen," Logananda continued, his eyes full of pride in the plan.

He listed out the details, and Vijay listened intently.

"compulsory military service: There will not be any conscription-based service from now on, but soldiers will serve full-time from now on, as compensation each soldier will receive a 30 Varaha fixed salary in piece time and more in wartime.

Military training will be focused on mastering drills and formation. Soldiers were trained to march in precise formations and execute various tactical manoeuvres. The linear formation will be adopted, where soldiers lined up shoulder to shoulder in rows.

For cavalry units, training will be focused on horsemanship, mounted combat techniques, and the use of sabres and lances.

Artillery training will involve learning how to operate cannons and mortars, including loading, aiming, and firing these heavy weapons.

Fortifications and Siege Warfare: Training will often include learning how to construct and defend fortifications, as well as tactics for besieging enemy strongholds.

Officer Training: Aspiring officers will receive a more extensive education, including studies in military theory, strategy, and leadership skills. Many officers come from the nobility, but commoners could also rise through the ranks based on merit."

Logananda detailed the plan, and Vijay listened intently, nodding in approval. Logananda drank a cup of water and continued with confidence.

"These are the points that His Majesty agreed upon. Are there any doubts?" Logananda inquired, looking around the room expectantly.

This time, multiple hands were raised. Vijay asked Uncle Ravi to put down his hands, and though unwilling, Ravichandran complied with a sigh.

Arjun raised his hand, and Vijay motioned for him to speak.

"Your Highness, there is no place to train the officers," Arjun pointed out, his forehead creased with concern.

Vijay nodded and motioned him to sit down.

"Are there any other comments?" Vijay inquired, looking at the council members with an encouraging smile.

No one raised their hands, but their expressions showed curiosity and eagerness to hear more about Vijay's solution.

"Let's put aside Uncle Ravi's problem, which we all know is about money," Vijay said humorously, lightening the atmosphere and earning a few chuckles from the council members. "Arjun's doubt is indeed worth considering, which I would like to say has already been considered."

Vijay handed over a document that detailed the formation of the Military Academy, including two locations in Bagyanagaram (Hyderabad) and Mysore, and explained his ingenious plan.

Formation of Military Academy: like the police academy The military academy will be constructed, it is planned that 2 military academies will be formed in Bagyanagaram (Hyderabad) and Mysore.

Admissions and course: from now on all the soldiers will have to go through the military academy to join the army which is mandatory. The academy will have courses starting from soldier to Major General, which any soldier can take after completing the lower course. Admissions for our soldiers will be free of charge.

Academic Education: The military academies will cover various subjects, including military history, strategy, leadership and ethics. Soldiers typically earn a degree in a specific academic field, such as engineering, science, social sciences, or humanities, depending on the academy's offerings.

Military Training: Military training Will be an integral part of the curriculum. soldiers learn military skills, tactics, and leadership principles through hands-on training exercises, field training, and simulated combat scenarios.

Physical Fitness: Soldiers will be trained to maintain a high level of physical fitness throughout their academy training. Physical training includes regular exercises, endurance training, and various sports to build strength, stamina, and overall fitness.

Leadership Development: Leadership development is a core focus of military academies. high-level officers participate in leadership courses, simulations, and practical exercises to enhance their decision-making, communication, and management skills.

Military Drill: Soldiers practice military drills and ceremonies to develop discipline, teamwork, and precision in movement. This includes learning to march, handle weapons, and execute military formations with precision.

Field Training Exercises.

Professional Military Education: As Soldiers progress through the academy, they receive advanced training tailored to their specific branches or areas of specialization within the military. This may include further instruction on specialized equipment, tactics, and strategies relevant to their future roles.

Graduation and Commissioning: Upon successful completion of the academy's requirements, Soldiers graduate and are commissioned as officers in their respective military branches. They may then serve in active duty components, depending on the country's needs.

Medical Training: A medical branch will be added as it is required for each squad to have one medical soldier. Lokesh will be the head of the department for now." Lokesh got up and bowed in acceptance.

Cultural Department: There is a cultural department that aims to instil loyalty to the kingdom, king, and the god in the army. Raghavendra Bhat will be in charge of this branch for now." Raghavendra also got up and bowed in acceptance.

"Now, from now on, any soldier, no matter which caste, can climb up the ladder and get a chance to become a military general or even a Marshall," Vijay declared, his voice resonating with confidence and conviction. "No soldier will be promoted to a higher role unless they clear the course in the military academy."

*Clap Clap Clap* Logananda started clapping, and everyone joined in to applaud the impeccable plan.

"Looks like there is no problem," Vijay muttered to himself, feeling accomplished and hopeful for the future.
