Chapter 659 Cook Steadily

It seems that Li Rusong decided to choose that woman last night for Xiao Ruxun to enjoy.

So Xiao Ruxun smiled and nodded.

"Very good, very well-behaved. Last night, Bendu was in ecstasy until the third watch. However, I have already ordered someone to deal with that woman."

Li Rusong was taken aback, thinking that Xiao Ruxun was dissatisfied, he hurriedly asked: "Governor...why is this? How dare that woman?"

"No, no, what I mean is, this kind of woman is easy to give birth to. If there is one, it will be a big trouble. As generals of the country, we are still generals. We have tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of troops under our command. In the eyes of others, one must not be confused about women's issues.

Especially the Beilu and the Jurchen women, who are my enemies, or my enemies and my friends, we must be more careful when we lead our troops outside, not to mention...Brother Zimao, you know that the reason why this woman is different from other women is because for what? "

Li Rusong was stunned for a moment.

"Why?"

"Because the woman's father may be the leader of a large tribe. The woman is eighteen years old, but she is still unmarried. She is still a virgin. Her skin is not as rough as ordinary northern captive women. She can also speak Chinese. How can you be so noble?"

Li Rusong turned pale with shock.

Xiao Ruxun looked at Li Rusong, and said in a delicate tone: "It's not a big deal right now, but if one is bad and someone catches the handle, that's a big problem. Let's be generals, don't forget Sapphire!"

Li Rusong didn't expect this, he was taken aback immediately, and hurriedly said to Xiao Ruxun: "Governor, at this time, the last general really doesn't know!"

Xiao Ruxun looked at Li Rusong, was silent for a while, and then smiled.

"Hahaha! Don't worry, don't worry, I know what brother Zimao wants, it's okay, besides, I'm also very comfortable, it's good to do this."

Li Rusong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao Ruxun wasn't lying anymore, and then asked, "Then why don't you leave it until tomorrow? I can stay with the governor tonight. I've been picking this woman for a long time, and I'm afraid there is no better one." It's gone."

"If I leave it until tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it down."

Xiao Ruxun smiled: "Enough, ecstasy for one night is enough, we will break camp tomorrow, let's get a good night's sleep tonight, the soldiers can play as much as they want, but it's better to end before the third watch, let the Soldiers have plenty of time to sleep."

Li Rusong nodded.

"Yes, I understand."

Xiao Ruxun patted Li Rusong on the shoulder, and left the Liaodong Army camp with his own soldiers.

Li Rusong stood at the gate of the camp and watched Xiao Ruxun's back for a while before turning back to the barracks.

Xiao Ruxun's progress was too fast, and he had already left him far behind. He couldn't even see clearly what kind of path Xiao Ruxun would take in the future.

He remembered what Li Chengliang said to him again, but obviously, at the moment, he would not do this.

After Xiao Ruxun left the Liaodong Army Camp, he went to the Huotou Army Camp. Among the things he cared about the most when marching and fighting, intelligence ranked first, logistics came second, and other things came after that.

If the logistics are not done well, if the soldiers are left hungry, then no matter how easy it is to fight, the battle will be over. The Huotou Army in the Zhennan Army is also specially trained. They are all veterans with strong psychological quality. They are proficient in various cooking skills, especially good at Firewire cooking.

There is still a fierce battle ahead, and when it is time for meals, they are still cooking steadily, using local materials and burying pots for cooking. When the army returns, they are exhausted and hungry, but they can eat a hot meal immediately. This is The Firehead Army of the Zhennan Army.

But right now, in view of the fact that the Huotou troops of the entire army are far inferior to the old Huotou of the Zhennan Army in terms of professional skills, Xiao Ruxun ordered that all the Huotou troops of the entire army be gathered together and handed over to the old Huotou of the Zhennan Army to command and train. When I was in Shanxi, I never missed a meal.

When Xiao Ruxun came to the Huotou army camp with his own soldiers, the sky above the Huotou army camp looked like a steamer with a lot of steam rising from a distance. In a sense, the same is true.

Ancient military rations are the military rations that pay the least attention to taste and the most emphasis on convenient storage and portability. Unlike modern material production, which takes into account taste and portability at the same time, ancient military rations are purely for filling the stomach, and there is nothing in the word delicious. relation.

Before the Tang and Song Dynasties, the food of the Chinese army was mainly thick vegetable porridge. After the Tang and Song Dynasties, the army began to use rice noodles as the staple food, and the well-known army food such as sesame seed cakes was updated and developed in the Ming Dynasty.

In order to be able to chase the enemy in the mountainous forests, the Ming army roasted the round cakes with charcoal fire, crispy and salty, poked small holes in the middle, and stringed them with ropes, so that soldiers could carry them and eat them. This is the compressed biscuit of the Ming Dynasty.

Another method of the Ming army is to make a stone of rice into dry rice and transport it. When eating, it can be eaten by soaking rice in hot water. This is rice soaked in water, which can also be called instant noodles in the Ming Dynasty. Soy bean is mixed with five liters of salt, mashed into mud, twisted into a cake shape and dried in the sun. When you want to eat, peel off a piece of jujube pit and eat it instead of pickles.

But even so, the military rations of the Ming army are still monotonous and boring. They can only fill their stomachs and barely allow the army's combat effectiveness to keep up with the demand. However, it will be even more difficult to go further, not only because of financial issues , sometimes it is indeed difficult to do.

Rapeseed flowers are not planted in China at all in the present era, and it was not introduced to China until the 50s, but peanuts have already been introduced to China, but only in recent years, and a crop has been introduced from The time required for widespread planting can be imagined.

The plant crops that can obtain edible oil in large quantities have not taken root in China, so the means of obtaining edible oil in China are very limited, or animal oil, which is not to mention how precious, 90.00% of Chinese people in this era are basically Can't eat animal oil.

Either it is sesame oil, a small amount of vegetable oil, soybean oil and other vegetable oils. Due to the lack of oil extraction technology, oil has always been the enjoyment item of the upper class. Even in several famous prosperous ages in China, oil is absolutely impossible to become a daily necessities for ordinary people.

The status of the army was quite low in the Song and Ming dynasties, so life was of course much worse than that of Shengdou Xiaomin, and there were very few opportunities to eat oil.

Sometimes it is easy to win a big battle, and the imperial court is merciful. You can eat oily meat at a banquet. Noisy.

But there is no doubt that food with oil is more hungry than food without oil and water. If you eat a meal with oil and water, you will not be hungry from the morning war to noon. Eat rice without oil and water for three or four Bowl, my stomach was already growling by noon.

It's cold now, and the soldiers need enough calories to support high-intensity exercise and long-distance raids. Xiao Ruxun specially asked the fire-headed soldiers not to be stingy with the cooking oil and meat on hand today, and to give the soldiers some good food.

If the meat is not enough, cut some shredded pork, put some pickles, put them in the rice together, and then fry the rice with oil, it will be delicious and hungry for the soldiers. Anyway, there is a shortage of everything right now, except rice grain.

However, although Xiao Ruxun was fighting during this period of time, he didn't need all the soldiers to fight the war. Under Xiao Ruxun's orders, a group of people went all over the mountains and plains to hunt wild animals after entering Datong.

It was the beginning of spring at this time, hibernating animals woke up one after another to look for food, but the weather was abnormally cold, the vegetation did not have time to grow, and the herbivores could not find enough food, so they rushed all over the mountains and plains, and the carnivores had Eat, follow behind and be active.

But they never expected that the ferocious human oriole would swarm up behind them with knives, guns, swords and halberds. As a result, the wild beasts on the mountain were wiped out by the hunting army. One day the hunting army even brought back more than a dozen big wild boars. Xiao Ruxun was taken aback.

With these game meats, plus many horses that were killed in battle with the northern captives many times, those horse meat and horse bones are also well preserved, so it is not a problem to feed the army a few meals, and now is the time to use them.

Xiao Ruxun entered the Huotou army's barracks, and the smell of meat rushed towards him, causing Xiao Ruxun to twitch his index finger, and immediately rushed forward, and came to a large stove, where he looked, he was immediately happy.

Lao Zhou, who cooked for himself for a year in Myanmar!
