On the morning of the next day, the Central Department issued another notice that the expeditionary force was designated as the Second Dragon Battalion, the Third Dragon Battalion, and the newly established Yanlong Battalion.

This Yanlong Battalion is formed by a group of elite seedlings trained by Liu Zhi himself, there are only one hundred and eighty-three people at present, the position of battalion commander is temporarily vacant, the deputy battalion commander is served by Long Zhen, the commander of the first company of the original Guards Battalion, Gu Xiaoying, Shu Yue, Xiao Changle, Wei Ji, and Su Wen all belong to the Yanlong Battalion, among these five people, except for Gu Xiaoying, the rest of the people have not undergone systematic command training, so they are not given official positions, and temporarily serve as Liu Zhi's personal guard, and Gu Xiaoying, Liu Zhi is not worried that she will charge into battle.

The Yanlong Battalion was built according to the ace elite from the beginning, and it was a guard army led by Liu Zhi himself, and each soldier was carefully selected and needed to be proficient in various war skills.

The officers and men of the three battalions, together with 40 intelligence officers of the Military Intelligence Department, a cavalry squad of 27 people, and a squad of 10 war doctors, together formed this 10,000-mile expeditionary force, with a total number of more than 1,100 people.

Throughout the afternoon, a large number of armaments and dry rations stored by the Material Bureau were being transported to the school yard in a steady stream, and the school yard will hold a pledge meeting tomorrow, and as soon as the meeting is over, the expeditionary force will be immediately mobilized.

In the newly built barracks, Xiao Changle is sorting out his equipment, in addition to the standard configuration of the hexagonal gun and two military daggers, there is also a hexagonal bow about one meter five long, he did not choose a hexagonal crossbow like others, he feels that the bow shoots farther than the crossbow, as long as it is properly controlled, it can exert greater power than the crossbow, and he is also quite confident in his archery skills.

The armor consists of one-piece armor, leggings, arm guards, and helmets, the first three of which are embedded with hexagonal wood for great protection, and a thick heart guard on the one-piece armor to protect the chest and vital points. The helmet is still a bright silver helmet, because even the oldest hexagonal wood has a trunk diameter of only a dozen centimeters, and it cannot be made into a helmet at all.

These pieces of equipment look like an ancient soldier when worn on the body, but there are also modern equipment, including combat backpacks and boots, as well as various military equipment inside the backpacks.

"Changle, you've worn this equipment at least seven or eight times, aren't you tired?" Wei He was lying on the bed beside him, the dagger swirling around his fingertips, and he turned his head to Xiao Changle and said.

"Let's familiarize myself with it first, I'm going to go on the expedition tomorrow, and I don't know how long I'll have to wear it." Xiao Changle responded casually.

"Hey, I said you need to be so excited? This is an expedition, a battle, and you are better to make it look like you are going to get married. Wei He pursed his lips, very disapprovingly at Xiao Changle's excitement.

"Are you nervous?" Xiao Changle stared at him with a smile.

"Heh, what are you kidding, do you look like I'm nervous?" Wei chuckled.

"I think it's like that, you say? Suven. Xiao Changle looked at the young man with an indifferent expression on the side.

Su Wen glanced at Wei He and agreed: "A little." ”

Wei He leaned in, pursed his lips, and said half-loudly: "Okay, I admit that I'm a little nervous, but you don't feel it at all?" This is going to the battlefield, it is to kill people, and you don't feel scared at all? ”

Xiao Changle grinned: "I'm not afraid, my blood is boiling, you know, if I hadn't been called by the leader for special training, I would have been able to follow the Second Dragon Battalion last time, and I didn't expect that there would be a bigger surprise waiting here, the Expedition of Ten Thousand Miles, it's exciting to think about." ”

Su Wen said lightly: "Fighting for your compatriots, if you die, you will die, what is there to be afraid of." ”

A lazy voice also came from the bunk behind him: "It is the duty of a soldier to die on the battlefield, and there is nothing to fear." My mother is still in the tribe, if I die, tell her for me, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, her son died for his compatriots, it is also honorable, don't hang me in your heart. ”

The person who spoke was named Ye Zhao, and he was also a member of the Yanlong Battalion's personal guards, nineteen years old this year, the oldest of the four, but his strength was lower than anyone else, but his personality was quite mature, he was alert and intelligent, and he was self-motivated, so he was recruited by Liu Zhi as a personal guard.

Damn, they're all crazy...... Wei Ji looked at the ceiling speechlessly, and suddenly had a feeling that everyone was drunk and I was alone.

…………

In the bedroom, Liu Zhizheng was looking at a simple map, which was drawn by the intelligence team, marking all the human gathering places they encountered along the way, as well as terrain such as woods, mountains and rivers, and the gathering places that had been explored were marked next to the approximate population, which country had the most people, and which country the leader was from, and other key information, and those who had not explored were drawn a question mark.

A delicate body gently leaned on his shoulder, exhaling like a land: "This map is very simple, why do you have to look at it for so long?" ”

Liu Zhi put down the map in his hand, pulled the woman to sit on his lap, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Think about it a little more now, and you can spend less brains in the future, why, can't you sleep alone?" ”

Gu Xiaoying said lightly: "Phew, let's talk about something improper, I'm afraid that you will be tired, and you will be dealing with government affairs and special training, and you have to practice at night, eat more than a dozen meals a day, sleep for two or three hours, and your iron body can't stand it." ”

Liu Zhi smiled and said: "Don't worry, your husband's body is much stronger than the iron beating, and you still leak one thing, plus that, the real iron beating body can't survive." ”

"Is there a leak? What is it? Gu Xiaoying looked at him curiously, but forgot to correct her husband's statement for a while.

Liu Zhi secretly said something in her ear, Gu Xiaoying's face suddenly turned red, she slapped him lightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "You are obviously not old, but your mouth is full of funny words, to be honest, have you harmed too many girls and children before?" ”

"Miss, you've asked this question many times, and you know that it's hard for my gender to prove my innocence." Liu Zhi said with a bitter face.

"The problem is that your answer is so inconsistent with your behavior, I want to believe you, but you must at least let me see your true side, right?" Gu Xiaoying pouted.

"Innocence? Let me think about it. Liu Zhi thought hard for a moment, so he suddenly said: "When I think about it, it seems that if I am three or four years old, there is no such thing as innocence in my life." ”

Gu Xiaoying sneered and laughed, and glanced at him: "I think you haven't been born since you were born." ”

Liu Zhi said indifferently: "If you don't have it, you won't have it, anyway, I don't rely on that bastard to eat,"

The woman's body shrunk, her face pressed against his warm chest, and she whispered, "Xiao Zhi, can you tell me what you want to do?" Seeing that you are so tired every day, and I can't help you share it, I feel distressed. ”

Liu Zhi's heart warmed, he hugged her arm tightly, and said softly: "You don't have to worry about me, I just want you to be by my side all the time, and I don't feel tired." ”

Seeing that the man was reluctant to say it clearly, Gu Xiaoying was somewhat disappointed in her heart, and hesitated for a moment and said: "I know you have your own ideas, I'm not as smart as you, and I guess you can't look down on you if I want to help you come up with ideas, but the days ahead are still very long, everything should be relaxed, don't be too tired of yourself, okay?" ”

"Hmm." Liu Zhi nodded: "I know." ”

Gu Xiaoying wrapped a pair of soft clothes around Liu Zhi's waist, feeling the man's powerful heartbeat, and suddenly her pretty face was dyed red, and she whispered: "Husband, otherwise, we want to ...... Want a baby, right? ”

Liu Zhi was stunned for a moment, he had called himself the word husband many times, but listening to Gu Xiaoying say it himself, this was the first time, and there was a bombshell behind him, in order to prevent women from thinking nonsense, he immediately replied: "I'm not even twenty years old, I haven't grown up yet, it's too early to have children, wait for the situation to stabilize, okay?" ”

Seeing that the woman buried her head and didn't know what she was thinking, he hurriedly added: "Don't worry, I'm a small person and can't fit too many things, and you have already accounted for all of it in terms of feelings, and I can't accommodate other women." ”
