Zhao Ping's physical fitness is relatively good in this era, so he quickly adapted to the formal training, and it only took three days to basically match the training intensity of the previous batch of soldiers, and on the third day, Zhao Ping and several soldiers participated in the increased training.

Incremental training is a specific additional training program for a small number of soldiers with better physical fitness, so that they can get better training, and in the latter batch of recruits, Zhao Ping is the first to carry out additional training.

In fact, the training enthusiasm of the recruits is very high, first, the traverser has defeated foreign armies several times, and has formed a lofty prestige in the hearts of the recruits, and the traverser gives the soldiers a high social status and honor, which also greatly increases the enthusiasm of the recruits; second, the political education of the recruits by the traversers, so that the recruits understand why they are fighting and what kind of responsibilities they bear, and imperceptibly let the soldiers consciously work hard to train the motivation. However, there are innate differences in human physique, which cannot be made up for by spiritual strength, so after three days, the difference in recruits is also initially revealed.

Zhao Ping's performance naturally attracted the attention of the two instructors Xing Kuanyu and Wang Huming, so before resting that night, the two instructors praised Zhao Ping's performance during this period in public, and appointed Zhao Ping as the team leader to manage eleven recruits. At the same time, he also encouraged Zhao Ping to continue to work hard in the future and strive for better performance.

Just a few days after joining the army, he became the captain of the squad, although he was only in charge of more than ten people, but the size was also an official, and Zhao Ping was also very happy. At first, he defected to Zhao Weizhong in order to survive, and as the survival problem was solved, Zhao Ping also considered his future prospects, of course, he was not willing to be a subordinate for the rest of his life, which is not to say that Zhao Ping was dissatisfied with Zhao Weizhong, on the contrary, he was indeed very grateful to Zhao Weizhong, but after all, Zhao Weizhong was not a powerful person, and he really had no future in his family. Therefore, when Zhao Weizhong asked him if he would like to join the army, Zhao Ping immediately realized that his opportunity had come, and now it is finally a good momentum.

Early the next morning, Zhao Ping wanted to work hard to perform well and let the two instructors see his efforts, but he didn't expect that the two instructors announced that today's training would be canceled and all the staff would go to carry supplies.

When all the personnel came to the gate of the barracks, there were more than 20 donkey carts parked, each of which was filled with various wooden boxes, sacks, etc., and on the way to the barracks, there were also donkey carts coming one after another, and there were already many soldiers carrying supplies on the royal carts, and there were also people specially organized.

After a while, someone came and led them to a donkey cart and told them to move the cart to warehouse No. 3. So the two instructors Xing Kuanyu and Wang Huming took the lead, and the two of them carried a wooden box together and walked towards the No. 3 warehouse.

More than 50 people moved all the goods in a donkey cart in just one trip. But the next donkey cart was waiting for them soon. As a result, in one morning, everyone moved more than a dozen donkey carts.

At lunchtime, some people also asked the instructor what he was carrying, and the answer he got was to listen to orders, and don't ask more questions if you shouldn't ask, and I will tell you when the time comes. Hearing what the instructor said, the soldiers did not ask any more questions, and in the afternoon, they continued to carry supplies.

Although he failed to perform well in the training, he became the team leader after all, so Zhao Ping also worked very hard in the process of transporting materials, not only working hard to carry the materials himself, but also helping the warehouse managers to put the goods neatly after moving to the warehouse. In addition, he helped other soldiers.

For the next four days, all of them were carrying all kinds of goods and materials, and not only the warehouses in the barracks were full, but even the warehouses at the wharf were also full. Although the instructor had warned the soldiers, "Don't ask too much if you shouldn't ask", there was still a lot of discussion among the soldiers in private, and they didn't know why so many things had been shipped these days.

During this period, Zhao Ping met with He Xin and He Ping brothers again, and also talked about the fact that a large number of materials had been transported in the military camp in the past few days.

In fact, Zhao Ping guessed a little, and now he just got confirmation from He Xin. However, Zhao Ping is a person who has a certain understanding of the current situation, and in his opinion, if the traverser wants to launch a military operation, it will definitely recover Beijing and completely defeat the Eight-Nation Alliance. However, the reconquest of Beijing was a land battle, and the navy was useless, so why did it bring so many supplies to the navy to operate? Could it be that the Eight-Nation Coalition sent reinforcements from the sea to kill them, so the navy had to prepare for war?

However, He Xin didn't say much, and repeatedly warned Zhao Ping, as long as he knew about it, don't spread it around. Of course, Zhao Ping remembered the discipline of the barracks, so he didn't ask any more, and still worked hard to carry materials every day

On the fifth day, as if to confirm He Xin's statement, Zhao Ping and the others did not go to the gate of the barracks to carry the materials, but came to the dock and carried the materials from the dock warehouse to the various transport ships. At the same time, Zhao Ping also found that on several small warships docked by the dock, there were also people constantly going up and down, transporting all kinds of boxes and sacks onto the warships.

At this time, even those who were late understood what was going to happen, so the topic of discussion among the soldiers became "who are they going to fight this time", or "did the Eight-Nation Alliance send a fleet to fight it?"

After another two days of work, according to Zhao Ping's observations, at least ten transport ships were full of cargo, and the recruits had resumed training. However, on the first day of resumption of training, the two instructors also officially confirmed to the recruits that they were indeed about to fight, and that the recruits also had the possibility of going to the battlefield, so today the recruits will be trained in shooting and bayonets.

When the recruits heard this, they were nervous and excited, no one thought that shooting training would be carried out so soon, and who would not want to touch the real gun. The next two instructors led the recruits to the quartermaster depot to pick up rifles and bayonets. In the morning of the same day, live-ammunition firing and firearms disassembly and assembly training were conducted.

And at noon, the recruits found that among the soldiers who ate in the cafeteria, there were a number of unfamiliar faces, and judging from their uniforms, they should be the combat uniforms of the army. Although there is now a battalion of the army stationed in the naval base, which is responsible for the garrison of the shore-based base, the army has a special canteen and training ground, and it will not be mixed with the navy, after all, the army's training and diet structure are still quite different from the navy.

After serving as soldiers for more than 10 days, some soldiers became familiar with the staff of the canteen, so I inquired about them and got the answer: This is the first battalion of the army, and it has just arrived at the barracks today.

It was indeed the first battalion of the People's Army that arrived at the naval barracks, and when they came to Dagukou, they naturally prepared to participate in the landing operation to attack Weihaiwei.

According to the plan drawn up by the General Staff, the first phase of the attack on Weihaiwei will be carried out in coordination with a new military battalion and an integrated marine battalion retained by the Crossing Army. In this new military battalion, the General Staff finally selected the first battalion with Luo Yue as the battalion commander.

The first battalion had participated in the defense of Tianjin and had a certain amount of actual combat experience, and Luo Yue did have a set of training recruits, and in several competitions between various battalions, the first battalion won most of the victories.

Although the battle to attack Weihaiwei is not difficult, after all, it is the most difficult landing operation in the war, so it is necessary to mobilize elite soldiers and strong generals, and the traverser now needs to build several troops in the new army that can fight tough battles, and combat is the best training.

In fact, it was not only the first battalion that arrived at the naval barracks, but also a medical team of 80 people, as well as a large number of medical supplies. And there are also a large number of medical personnel among the travelers, after more than two months of adaptation and learning, and laboratory tests, the medical personnel who have crossed have basically mastered the drug properties of this era, as well as the use of medical equipment, so a large number of medical supplies seized before can be used. Most of the medical equipment that traveled through was preserved, after all, the medical equipment in the old time and space was far better than this era, so it should be used at the time of Guan Jian.

Of course, in the medical team, not all of them are traversers, more than half of them are newly recruited female soldiers, although they do not have much professional medical knowledge, but they have also undergone basic ambulance training, and it is better to have more people to help. Since the majority of the medical corps are female and the lives of the soldiers are at stake, they are also treated better than a battalion. Lunch was arranged in the officers' cafeteria, so the other soldiers did not see it.

The time set by the General Staff for the operation was in the early hours of tomorrow morning, and the sea distance from Dagukou to Weihaiwei was about 350 kilometers, and if the fleet sailed at an economic speed of 18 knots, it would take about 10 hours, so the time of departure was set at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

After lunch, Luo Yue immediately led the whole battalion to the dock, joined the marine battalion and the medical team that had crossed the army, and boarded the Changbai Mountain ship in turn. Although according to the normal establishment, the Changbaishan ship can only carry an integrated marine battalion, about 500 people. But this time the combat distance was not far, and the soldiers did not need to rest in their rooms. In addition, the Changbaishan ship only carried a two-shelf armored company, 12 Type 05 amphibious combat vehicles, and two 318 boats were also moved out of the dock and only carried two Type 724 hovercraft. As a result, a lot of space was freed up, which could accommodate a battalion of nearly 400 fighters.

After everyone stepped on the Changbai Mountain ship, the first batch of six crossing warships attacking Weihaiwei left Dagukou in turn, headed east, and sailed towards Weihaiwei.
