Indeed, the officers and soldiers are full of vitality and morale is high!

The rewards after the victory of this battle have been clear: doubled, raised one level!

Since it was the first large-scale battle with Baipi, the officers and soldiers' monetary rewards were all doubled!

For example, in the past, military merits were rewarded with 20 silver dollars, and now they are rewarded with 40 silver dollars. This is the same for all officers and soldiers.

Then there is the "Victory Money", the unique "Victory Money" is specially cast to record the historical victories at that time and is highly sought after by the society.

In the past, general officers issued gold bars, school officers issued gold coins, lieutenants and non-commissioned officers issued silver coins, and ordinary soldiers issued copper coins. The soldiers issued silver coins, and if the battle was won, the copper coins would be "eliminated".

The method of having both hands is the most effective, materially rewarding, and spiritually encouraging. Yan Changwu's military propaganda personnel clearly stated the historical significance of this battle to the officers and soldiers: the history of history will remain famous for the future!

The atmosphere of preparation for battle is strong. People are eager to fight. Now that there is no war, all parts of the deck are cleaned. They conduct artillery exercises or shrink the mid-mast sails. Everyone has their own tasks. Everyone works very hard. Because their military **** is with them!

Feeling the atmosphere on the ship, Liu Guoxuan only felt that the soles of his feet were spring-loaded, and he had an endless drive!

At noon, an assistant of the captain, a senior non-commissioned officer surnamed Yue, presided over the ceremony of mixing water with light wine. It was a mixed drink made of three parts of water, one part of rum, and an appropriate ratio of lemon juice and sugar. , The officers and soldiers of each cabin sent representatives to receive them one by one. Everyone looked serious. This was a very sacred ceremony.

Although the warship has only been offshore for one day, the fresh water on the ship did not smell bad, but from the second day of sailing, the warship has to distribute this drink to the officers and soldiers, not at all sloppy.

An hour later, when the drums were beaten, the lower-ranking officers’ room had lunch, and then a quiet afternoon, the soldiers kept the tradition of taking a nap, even if it was a short squint, they could be resurrected with blood.

After supper and the water and light wine again, the whole group gathered later, the deck of the warship was cleaned up, and all the sailors entered their respective combat positions. Every time the entire assembly assembles, it is rare that it ends without firing a few shots. This is because although the training of pushing the cannon out is usually of great value, every officer believes that in order to prepare the sailors for combat, there is nothing. It’s comparable to a real artillery shell being fired, not to mention teaching them to aim the muzzle in the right direction. The naval officers of the Southeast Army are all artillery masters. They very much believe that artillery can be obtained by training. The artillery team has sufficient training to form a conditioned reflex, and can fire artillery when sleeping. Therefore, the officers on each warship will not neglect, as long as they have time, they must conduct artillery training.

As a result, the night will be ignited by a fierce jet of flame, and the warship will be illuminated by a small storm. The storm shot out clouds, mist, thunder, and orange lightning, disappearing on the smooth, calm, and enchanting expanse of the ocean.

All warships are no exception, and there is no need to worry that the shelling will injure friendly ships, because they all use empty shells with no solid warheads and a small amount of loading.

Liu Guoxuan was on the four o’clock in the morning shift. The day’s work on the warship started at 4 in the morning and ended at midnight. The leader of the sailing line stood at the hatch and whistled, sending out a signal of “attention to all”, and the next shift was concentrated. Go to the deck to count the number of people, and then change shifts. Then replace the lookout on the mast, measure the speed, and record it on the blackboard. The carpenter began to repair, the long sails arranged the sails and rigging, and the chef began to prepare breakfast.

Everything is in order, in accordance with the rules, and in an orderly manner

He was the fastest person to welcome the rising sun. He watched a red sun jump out of the Mediterranean sea. The flames were like fire, and the sky was full of radiance, reflecting the sky. This is a sea territories thousands of miles away from the country!

Liu Guoxuan was in awe. Thinking of the upcoming battle, he murmured: "All the unexpected and all the certain rules are on the battleship. I will drift along with it. May this battle be won! Mazu Empress Bless!"

As he was thinking, someone walked to his side, Liu Guoxuan turned his head to see, it was Mr. David, he quickly turned around and raised his hand in salute.

Mr. David habitually raised his telescope and looked at the sea in the distance, and asked, "How is it?"

"Report sir, everything is normal, there is no hostility!" Liu Guoxuan replied quickly.

"Are you nervous?" Mr. David asked him.

"Reporting sir, you are not nervous." Liu Guoxuan changed his words: "Oh, not nervous."

"Actually, it's a little nervous!" Mr. David chuckled, "It's strange to say that I'm not nervous, I'm very nervous!"

This time he advocated a preemptive strike by the large fleet and an expedition to Sicily, taking a certain military risk.

Some people advocate waiting for work with ease and wait until the enemy arrives in Cyprus to attack again. However, Mr. David believes that our army is full of momentum and is not afraid of any enemy at all, and directly kills the door!

Yan Changwu believes that the enemy's arrival in Sicily in Italy from the country is an expedition. They are not afraid of the expedition, and we are not afraid. Let's kill them in the middle. Therefore, the large fleet is dispatched in a mighty force.

The real reason is that Yan Changwu thinks he can afford to lose, even if he loses this time, with his domestic production capacity, he can sink one ship and replace two ships. As for the personnel, it is really not a problem. All people in the southeast can swim. Up to 80% of men can sail boats, and nearly 50% of women can sail boats. Many Southeast countries build homes on the seashore, and sailing has long been popular.

So he fought, and he didn't hesitate to do the expedition.

Mr. David chatted with Liu Guoxuan. Mr. David talked and laughed happily, and it was like a spring breeze. Although he is a red-haired fan, his living habits have long been orientalized, so his body smell is not smelly. This is also one of the reasons why he can stand in the yellow army. Many foreign generals who joined the Southeast Army are like this, and it cannot be said that they have not, but they are much better than their fellow clan.

Liu Guoxuan took the opportunity to ask: "Sir, I heard you speak Spanish." He said that he asked this question in Spanish, but he was not fast in speaking, and he was obviously unskilled.

"For the European white-skinned seafarers~lightnovelpub.net~ you must first know Latin, have you learned it? Then you must know Spanish, Dutch and English. With these four languages, you basically It's unimpeded, even if you only speak Latin, Spanish, and English. The Netherlands used to be part of Spain, and many people know Spanish!" Mr. David said in Spanish gently, his tone was round and his words were clear. , Far better than Liu Guoxuan.

"I have learned Latin, English, and Spanish." Liu Guoxuan continued to say in Spanish.

"Then you don't have any allowance!" Mr. David started.

In the system of the Southeast Army, if you learn two foreign languages, you will receive additional allowances, but you will not increase the allowances if you learn the third type. In other words, you will have no money to learn.

"Sir, you know more languages ​​and suffer even more!" Liu Guoxuan continued to show off in Spanish.

"So the system is unreasonable, it has to be changed!" Mr. David jokingly said.

"What should I change?" There was a voice from behind, and then someone shouted, "Your Majesty, come here!"
