By October, the KPA units had suspended their shifts and vacations in anticipation of the outbreak of war.

In peacetime, the KPA can take turns from soldiers to officers, and soldiers, squad leaders, platoon leaders, and company commanders can take annual leave, and they can take one month off a year.

The battalion commander and regiment commander take half a year off, and there is half a month of vacation every six months, and basically the battalion commander and regiment commander can ride home on horseback and spend not much time on the road.

Above the head of the regiment is a quarterly holiday, and each quarter has half a month off.

Although the People's Army signed an armistice agreement with the Ming court and was in a period of peace, there was no guarantee that the Ming court would tear up the armistice agreement and launch an attack on the KPA on its own initiative.

Under these circumstances, the People's Army can only take shifts on leave, and a reorganized division of 8,000 people, a maximum of 800 people a month will leave the unit, and only 800 people will be less, and even if war breaks out, the impact on the combat effectiveness of this reorganized division will not be too great.

However, with the approaching war, the KPA has suspended its vacation, and the three group armies of the KPA are making full preparations for the war that does not know when it will come.

The political commissar of a certain unit of the People's Army and the regiment are conducting ideological education for the soldiers.

"Brothers, our People's Army is going to war with the enemy again, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" The warriors shouted in unison.

"No, I believe that some of you are afraid, war is to kill people, in the past few years, our army has fought with the enemy, won a hundred battles, but our army has also suffered tens of thousands of casualties, maybe the war breaks out, and I and you may die in the war."

The words of the commissar made many fighters bow their heads, they were indeed very afraid of the coming of the war, they were afraid of dying in the war.

"I am also afraid of the outbreak of war, I will die in the war, but I cannot retreat, behind us is the home where our relatives live, and the Metropolitan Governor will distribute land to us, so that everyone can eat enough, and no one will starve to death, if we turn around and run away in fear, the enemy will come in and take away our land, and your relatives will return to their old lives, become tenants of the landlords, and live a life of hunger and hunger."

"I'm afraid of war, but I don't want my relatives to go back to the days when they were oppressed by landlords and officials, brothers, take up arms to defend our homeland together, I won't take a step back, what about you?"

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! The fighters shouted loudly.

Military training is very important to the KPA, and ideological education is equally important, and this is something that all senior KPA officers attach importance to; under ideological arming, the KPA cannot reach the point of fighting to the last man, but it is enough to be able to continue fighting even if the number of dead and wounded reaches two-thirds.

The People's Army attaches great importance to ideological education, and morale has always been high, but it will not work on the side of the Ming Army, and if it wants to raise morale, the Ming Army must use various incentives such as promotion, wealth, and women, but under these incentives, the Ming Army may collapse with less than one-third of the casualties.

In the face of war, the People's Army is actively preparing, and the enemy of the People's Army, the Ming Army, is also actively preparing, and the Ming Court claims to have mobilized a million-strong army to encircle and suppress the People's Army, and this news has been widely spread under the rule of the Ming Court and the Ming Army, and even spread to the People's Army's ruling areas, on the one hand, to give confidence to others, and on the other hand, to put pressure on the People's Army.

At present, the Ming army participating in the war has not yet been fully gathered, and the materials have not been prepared, Li Chengliang can only continue to wait, the war will not come too long, because it is difficult for the Ming court to maintain such a large army, it does not take too long, only to maintain one more year, the Ming court will not be able to pay the soldiers.

The idea of the Ming court was to start the war quickly, exterminate the People's Army, and then let some of the Ming Army go home to farm, but Li Chengliang knew that he was not ready, and wanted to be fully prepared before going to war, Li Chengliang's eyes were not only on the People's Army.

In the Ming army, the agents of the military intelligence department of the People's Army secretly became more and more active, and one agent even became the general commander, commanding hundreds of Ming troops, and all of these hundreds of Ming troops yearned for the People's Army.

The agents in the Ming army will not expose their identities to others at will, and the people are unpredictable, and they may think that the Ming soldiers are oppressed by the landlords and the government, but after knowing the identity of the agents, it is possible to report to the commander of the Ming army as a credit, so that he can be promoted and make a fortune.

Therefore, the agents are more likely to describe to others the living conditions of ordinary people in the KPA-ruled areas and the strength of the KPA.

The words of the agents may be accompanied by a warning from the officer-in-chief, but they will not be arrested for this.

Thanks to the efforts of the agents, more and more Ming soldiers yearn for life in the areas ruled by the People's Army, but they are also afraid of fighting the People's Army and dying on the battlefield.

When the war broke out, the agents could easily rebel against these Ming soldiers who yearned for the People's Army, no need for more, only tens of thousands of Ming soldiers and soldiers, and it would affect the Ming army several times or even more.

Although the war had not yet begun, the agents of the Military Intelligence Department had already made great contributions to the People's Army, and preparing to rebel against the Ming Army was only one of them, as well as drawing topographic maps, bribing Ming court officials and Ming army commanders, and so on.

If it weren't for the fact that the agents were unable to transport enough explosives into the city, they could even dig a hole in the city that led to the bottom of the city wall and place the explosives, and when the People's Army attacked the city, the city wall would be blown down.

The contribution of the agents of the Military Intelligence Department is large enough, and the next step is to rely on the People's Army to defeat the million-strong Ming army and occupy more territory.

As a matter of fact, the KPA, from the top to the top and the rank and file of the rank-and-file ranks, is very confident in the upcoming war, not from the ever-increasing number of firearms, but from the fact that the KPA has won every battle against the Ming army after raising the flag.

It cannot be said that the People's Army has won all battles, and the People's Army may have given up the siege because of the casualties that would cause many casualties when besieging some cities, in other words, the People's Army has never been defeated in a battle with the Ming Army, and the Ming Army has never been victorious.

A victorious army is naturally full of confidence in the next battle and has high morale, while the Ming army, which has been defeated, even if there are more troops, the morale is not high.

The Ming army is known as a million-strong army, and the People's Army is expected to have 40 integrated divisions and 320,000 people, and the strength of the People's Army is only one-third of the Ming Army, and the strength of the troops seems to be very different, but the musketeers in the People's Army say that they can fight 10 enemies alone.

If the million-dollar Ming army is put into the area ruled by the People's Army and then fights, with the mountainous and forested terrain of Guangdong, the million-dollar Ming army will not be able to exert itself at all, and the victory rate of the People's Army will be even higher.
