"The situation ahead is unknown, and we must send scouts to reconnoiter the situation before we can move forward." Captain Zhao Jun said to several lieutenants and ensigns.

"I need a squad of troops to go out to reconnoitre." The captain said.

"Sir, our platoon can take on this task." The second lieutenant raised his hand and said.

"Okay, just you guys. Be careful, we'll provide you with fire support. The captain said at this time.

"Yes. Sir. The second lieutenant said at this time. And the two lieutenants only glanced at the second lieutenant at this time, and he was the only officer in the platoon led by the second lieutenant. The lieutenant had been killed in a battle not long ago, and he was temporarily appointed platoon commander of that platoon. In a young relationship, but also in a low military rank. The platoon commander was usually a lieutenant, in fact, among the Qin and Yan armies. The lieutenant is an auxiliary captain. Sometimes the lieutenant would command the entire company. Ensigns are mostly assigned the task of platoon commanders, and they are usually performed by some midshipmen who have just graduated from military schools. After all, they have learned how to fight professionally, and they have enthusiasm, and they are eager to practice what they learned in school.

But Zhao Jun is different, the difference is. There are very few officers transferred from the military academy in Zhao Jun. Many of them are selected from seasoned veterans who value experience rather than how much they have learned. The Zhao army was in the process of transformation, but the Zhao state did not establish its own military academy. This led to a large number of gaps in the change of officers in the Zhao army. Although the Zhao army also sent some officers to Qin as students to study, these numbers were very small. The Zhao army is huge, and the number of officers needed is far from that. This requires Zhao Jun to find a way to replenish these officers in a short period of time.

So, Zhao Jun came up with a solution. Officers are selected from among experienced veterans. In this way, these experienced veterans will be able to perform the duties of the officers well. And, they also get a workout.

The second lieutenant was an international student, and he had studied how to fight a war at a military academy. And those veterans picked out the officers. They believe that only what is learned in the war is what matters. Learn about war in the classroom. It's just a joke.

It was under such competition that the second lieutenant took the initiative to take on reconnaissance missions.

"Forward. Advance. "The second lieutenant took the initiative to lead a squad, twelve people, and took the initiative to attack and conduct reconnaissance.

"Quick." The second lieutenant was the first to break out of cover and, after advancing some distance, immediately stopped. He set up his rifle and motioned for the next rifleman to move on. And the next rifleman quickly advanced. And beyond the second lieutenant. Then, not far away, stay on alert with a gun.

And the infantry also maintained such a fighting state, and this is how the Zhao army advanced.

They slowly approached the first line of defense of the Qi army.

"Damn it." An advancing Zhao soldier scolded loudly.

The other Zhao soldiers who heard the scolding all pointed their guns at this time.

"It's okay." A nervous Zhao soldier asked.

"It's fine. These damn Qi people threw shit here. The soldier said in disgust.

"Damn the people of Qi are really disgusting." As he spoke, the soldier dropped his boot.

"You're out of luck." At this time, a soldier of the Zhao army stepped forward to check the situation with a gun and saw such a disgusting scene. The soldier could only express sympathy.

"Forward." And the second lieutenant in the back ordered in a whisper at this time.

"Poof." The second lieutenant quickly overtook the soldier, and likewise, the second lieutenant was unlucky enough to step on the feces thrown by the Qi soldiers out of the trenches.

The soldier of the Zhao Army in the back watched the second lieutenant step on the feces in disgust. And the second lieutenant jumped into the trench as quickly as if nothing had happened.

"It's disgusting." At this time, the Zhao soldier on the side said.

"Forward." The second lieutenant shouted. The soldiers of the Zhao army on the side also quickly jumped into the trench. He inevitably stepped on the feces thrown out of the trenches by the Qi soldiers. Because, the soldiers of the Qi army kept throwing feces out of the trenches at will, such a disgusting thing naturally made the attacking Zhao soldiers laugh.

"No one." The second lieutenant jumped into the trench and said.

"Whoa." The soldier also jumped into the trench at this time.

After standing firm. He quickly went into a state of combat alert.

"Keep going." The second lieutenant ordered at this time.

The second lieutenant held a rifle and checked the trenches for Qi soldiers. And the scouting squad in the back all entered. They are going to fulfill such a combat mission.

"No one." The scout said after constant inspection.

"Send a man to the back to deliver the message. You, you, you, and you, come with me. We need to look at the second line of defense. At this time, the second lieutenant assigned manpower and said.

"Okay." Despite the reluctance of the Zhao soldiers, they followed the ensign.

The second lieutenant and four men continued to search the positions of the Qi army. The soldier who had gone back to report the news quickly returned to the captain.

"Sir. We have just captured the first line of defense of the Qi army, and there is no one there. The second lieutenant led four men towards the second line of defense. The second lieutenant advises you, taking our men, into the first line of defense. The Zhao soldier said.

"Yes. Got it. The captain nodded at this point to indicate that he understood.

"You go back first." The captain said at this time.

"Yes, sir." The soldier quickly returned to the position the second lieutenant had just occupied.

"What do you think?" The captain asked, turning his head.

"We should occupy those battlefields." One lieutenant replied.

"We should be careful, after all, we haven't found any trace of the Qi army, and besides, we need to get in touch with the troops behind, otherwise, once the battle starts, it will be difficult for us to greet us." Another lieutenant said.

"Good." The captain nodded in approval.

"You're paying good attention." The captain said.

"Now. We need to advance the strength of a platoon. Occupy that position. Then, nothing, we move on. I led the men behind me to occupy the position at full speed. The captain said.

"Yes. Sir. A lieutenant said.

"Can the second platoon perform such a task?" The lieutenant asked, first lieutenant.

"Yes." The lieutenant replied.

"Alright, move forward." The captain replied.

"Yes. Sir. The lieutenant departed with that, and then quickly moved forward with his platoon and took the first line of position. And the captain at this time. A communications corpsman was also dispatched to tell the battalion headquarters the situation here. And the battalion headquarters is uploading this news to the regiment headquarters. But that will take time.

"Forward. Advance. The lieutenant commanded the second platoon to advance rapidly and occupy the first line of position.

"Let's move on." Seeing the arrival of reinforcements. The people of the Zhao army's reconnaissance squad advanced rapidly. The ensign who followed them went.

"They're coming." A Zhao soldier who was on guard at this time said.

"We're here." The scout of the Zhao army, who quickly came up, said.

"You search this side, we search this side. At six o'clock we meet. With that, the second lieutenant gave the order. He quickly led a few men to search the trench on the left. The other team began to search for the person on the right. They want to find the Qi army as much as possible. They want to sweep away hidden dangers.

"No one." The Scout said after inspecting a hole in the ground.

"Keep going." The second lieutenant continued to rush forward with his own men.

And the position of the Qin army on the opposite side also discovered the situation of the Zhao army at this time.

"The Qi army still wants to retreat." A corporal of the Qin army reported.

"Look, over there, there's a situation." At this time, a private hid in a dark observation point and reported.

"I'll see." After hearing that there is a situation. The second lieutenant stepped forward quickly.

"It's a different kind of uniform, I don't know if it's friendly or enemy." At this time, the private reported.

"Take it. Let me see. The second lieutenant took the binoculars and checked the situation.

"It seems to be Zhao Jun." At this time, the second lieutenant said.

"Zhao Jun". The surrounding Qin soldiers said in surprise.

"Yes, it's Zhao Jun. They have only changed their uniforms, but some of their emblems have not changed. Second Lieutenant Qin Jun said.

"It's Zhao Jun who is not wrong. It seems that our reinforcements have arrived. I need to confirm it now, though. The second lieutenant said at this time.

"You watch closely, I'll go talk to the Major." The second lieutenant said at this time.

Then the second lieutenant quickly left.

"Did you find anything?" Second Lieutenant Zhao Jun said after meeting with his subordinates at this time.

"Nope. There was no one. A Zhao soldier said.

"Are you sure there's no one?" The second lieutenant asked.

"Sure, no one." Zhao Jun soldier said.

"Where have these Qi people gone?" The lieutenant said to himself.

"Shall we move on?" A soldier asked.

"Did the people behind us follow?" The second lieutenant asked.

"Here we are." At this time a soldier reported. The second lieutenant glanced at it, and the second platoon was moving forward quickly. And on the first line of defense, the entire infantry company has already been occupied. They have already established the first line of defense.

"Go on." The second lieutenant said simply. As he spoke, he led his own people forward.

Soon the second lieutenant rushed to the third line of defense. When the second lieutenant arrived, he was more cautious and vigilant.

"Watch both sides of us, we have to be careful." The second lieutenant said at this time.

And his soldier nodded in approval.

"Hey, we're Qin Jun. Is it a soldier of the Zhao army on the other side? As soon as the second lieutenant finished speaking, such a voice came from not far away.

"We are Qin Jun. Our siege is over. Then the voice came again.

"It's Qin Jun." Zhao Jun said excitedly.
