It wasn't until this time that the ten veterans out of the hundred people selected by Xue Li understood what they were here for?

The recruits have not experienced this, so they are probably still in a state of shock and confusion.

But these veterans are all people who have been on the battlefield, and they all have good performances.

They are still very clear about the flow of some wars, and in war, all troops will send scouts around their own camp to find out the news.

It is mainly used to collect information about the enemy when attacking, and the same is true when defending, which is conducive to arranging its own formation to defend, and occasional scouts also undertake some tasks such as driving, but it is more used for information collection.

It's just that this time, the scouts were sent out more than a month before the army started, this situation is not nothing, but there are really not many, when this method was used in the past, these senior scouts were allowed to sneak into the opponent's city in advance, looking for an opportunity to see if they could rebel against some generals, or spread rumors in the city, so that the opponent's army and the people were disheartened.

Although they had doubts, Wang Erniu and other veterans still didn't ask much.

Their mission is already clear, infiltrate, mark the location, size, approximate number of people in the area, find a suitable landing place, and then mark a specific place, after completing these two tasks, without revealing themselves, they can properly collect some other information, but that information is not the most important.

Although Xue Li was sure that he would take the remaining ninety men around and land from the rear.

But Wang Erniu, who was familiar with Xue Li, had already seen a different meaning in Xue Li's eyes, Xue Li and they would not land here, they would go to other places to perform other tasks.

Therefore, Wang Erniu, who is not very qualified, already has a number in his heart, and he doesn't care about other extra things, as long as he can complete these two tasks, because there is no one here to fill in the gaps for him, once he fails, the army will completely lose the information of Tamna.

The influence is too great, and he can't afford to be blind here!

After landing, Wang Erniu strictly followed the requirements to restrain his soldiers, although the progress of intelligence collection is not fast, but there are new harvests every day, and in order to prevent exposure, Wang Erniu will also change the nest from time to time.

The days are like this, there is no too exciting experience for Wang Erniu, although he is doing very exciting things, but here, all this is so bland.

Day and night, on this backward and desolate island, as long as you pay a little attention, you can easily avoid the other party's eyeliner, and you can be asked not to communicate with the natives, or even not to meet, so the possibility of their exposure is always controlled within a small range.

Xue Li and the others followed the guidance of the sea chart all the way north, and finally secretly landed in Baekje, as for those ships, they directly pushed back into the sea, and where they would drift was not under their control, anyway, there was no mark from the Tang Dynasty on it.

As the task of front-line reconnaissance gradually unfolded, some unusual situations also appeared in the Haizhou military camp.

As the end of the year draws closer, the army has recently improved everyone's food and reduced the amount of training.

Three days ago, the morning and afternoon were each reduced by half an hour, but now they have changed to one hour of landing drills in the morning and one hour of battle formation training in the afternoon.

Before the landing drill, it was always divided into physical training, but after the landing training every day, the subject would be changed to the battle formation training after the landing in the afternoon battle formation training.

New Year's Day......

The whole camp and all the provinces gathered together to hold the so-called theatrical performances, and there were no special requirements, just let everyone have fun.

"Alas! Why do I feel as if something big is about to happen? A recruit who was watching the performance absentmindedly glanced at the busy crowd at the entrance of the camp, and felt a little apprehensive.

"It's a big thing, hurry up and brew it, if you dare to drag your feet later, you will see if the brothers will kill you!" Another soldier absentmindedly warned that this time they were very confident in their show, and if they made it to the top five, it would be an extra income.

"In the words of King Zhao, we eat this bowl of rice during the contract period, except for the family leave that begins in the second year, we stay in the army all the year round at other times, even so, we can be regarded as a holiday and rest in the past few days of the New Year.

But what about them? At present, we are the only ones in the entire Datang who are in this mode, and others still have to reunite with their relatives at home during the Chinese New Year. A few years ago, there were weapons that were gradually transported over, and today it is a New Year, even the emperor has to rest for the New Year, and there are more and more miscellaneous servants in the army who carry weapons, and more and more weapons are transported! ”

"So, what exactly are you trying to say? Maybe it was something that was decided a year ago, and they were delayed on the way, or they were delayed when they received their weapons, and they arrived at this day? ”

Although not many people realize that something big is about to happen, there are many who see the problem.

Even if it is the imperial court, it will not be easy to recruit miscellaneous servants during the Chinese New Year, because the cost is too great, even if it is really difficult to make a mistake in the past, or when there is an emergency, the miscellaneous servants recruited during this period are counted as two days a day.

In other words, they have basically completed a year's labor this year after one trip, and if the journey is long and takes too long, the imperial court will reduce their taxes accordingly as compensation.

Throughout the Chinese New Year, however, the number of miscellaneous servants transporting weapons increased, rather than decreasing.

The types of weapons transported are also increasing and becoming more and more complex.

In the past, they could worry about the Tang knives and spears that lost their hair, and they were directly transported to the warehouse by truckload, and these were issued to them for free.

Of course, when it is said to be a holiday, some troops will be transferred in turn every day to carry these weapons into storage.

And on the sixth day of the first lunar month, according to the news announced by the army, their year has already passed on this day, and the new year's training will start from today.

And even the food has been restored to the past, which makes the soldiers who were raised during the Chinese New Year a little unaccustomed.

However, before the training, a major event occurred in the army, and all the instructors who should be turned into regular officers and deputy officers were transferred to deputy officers.

was the fire commander before, directly served as the deputy of the team, responsible for assisting the team leader who was selected before, was the team leader before, directly served as the brigade deputy with the same responsibilities as before, and the previous brigade commander directly served as the regimental captain, this level no longer needs them to assist anyone, because only Xue Li and Cui Yi are the captains promoted as recruits in the entire army.

One Li Yuanjing didn't want to care, and the other was not in the army now, and was at the rank of captain before, and they entered various prefectures one after another, either as chief officers or as adjutants.

After the appointment was announced, the prefectures began to collect their weapons from their designated warehouses.

Although you don't have to prepare the equipment yourself, it is also quite different from before, and it is divided into two categories according to the previous training.

One class was assigned a bow, sixty arrows, two enlarged quivers filled to the brim, a horizontal sword, a set of armor, and a set of iron goggles at the front and back.

The other category was allocated a bow, which was converted into a rocket with 30 arrows, a horizontal knife, a spear, a set of armor, and a set of front and rear heart guards.

There are not so many complicated and messy things, and other daily necessities have long been sent to individuals, just pack them up and take them away.

It was only at this time that the recruits finally realized the seriousness of the problem, and no one thought it strange when they were issued equipment, but if they were issued armor and goggles, then the problem was serious.

Armor belongs to the standard equipment strictly controlled by the state, even if it is a government soldier, it only exists in the armory of each government, and no one is allowed to use these armor privately without an order from the imperial court.

And when was the last time Datang used these armors?

Two years ago, during the northern expedition to the Turks......

If these explicit signals were not enough, then the words of the newly appointed officers were a complete reassurance to them.

In the past few days, only some basic training has been conducted, and the rest of the time it is all time to familiarize yourself with the new equipment......
