After repeated field visits and scientific argumentation, considering the financial difficulties at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea broke out, and people were urgently needed. In order to save money and gain time, Nanjing was finally chosen as the former headquarters of the East China Army. The ready-made house is located at the foot of Zijin Mountain in Nanjing. It was originally the compound of the Ministry of National Defense of the Kuomintang government and the Central Military and Political School. It has a vast area, a quiet environment and excellent living conditions. In terms of academic system, considering the long-term needs of the PLA's regularization and modernization and the urgent need for talents in the front line of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, we have set up both a graduation department (with a training period of three years) and a crash department (with a training period of one year). Temporarily decided to offer four training units for students, namely advanced crash course, advanced crash course, basic course and information course (later changed to department). Receive cadres at the army, division, regiment and battalion levels for further study. Mainly cadres at or above the regiment level. The training policy and purpose is to "train and command modern technical arms, organize and command coordinated actions, and be familiar with staff service and communication on the basis of the existing quality and military thinking of the People's Liberation Army."
