Chapter 225 Yuan Chang cooks
Just as the scene was quiet, the five people suddenly raised their heads, knelt on one knee, and looked at Yuan Chang with a determined expression.
"My lord, we know that we have physical defects and cannot be an elite soldier. However, we still hope that adults can give us a chance to overcome it, and even if we fail, we have no regrets. β
"My lord, no matter how difficult it is, we are willing to accept it, and I just hope that your lord will let us continue to stay here as a soldier. β
"Please do it!"
From the determined look on their faces, Yuan Chang could tell that the five of them really wanted to stay, not just for fun. From their eyes, we can see their determination to protect their families and defend the country, perhaps it is precisely because of these hot-blooded men that Huaxia can always stand tall under the wheel of history.
In ancient times, conscription in the imperial court was basically mandatory, and if the age and physical requirements were met, they did not join the army, and they would be punished once they were discovered. Therefore, young and middle-aged people who have been forcibly conscripted into the army have the idea of getting by, and they may not be able to lose their lives one day. And the young men recruited like Zhao Yun are different, they took the initiative to become soldiers, they all have the goal of defending their families and the country and becoming generals, and the blood flowing in their bodies is still hot.
In fact, Yuan Chang also wanted to be a soldier before he crossed over, imagining the blood-inspiring picture of wearing an army-green military uniform and carrying a submachine gun to guard the country. However, later, because of his parents' accident, Yuan Chang became self-defeating, and the idea of becoming a soldier was also thrown out of the clouds.
Seeing the eyes of the five people at this moment, Yuan Chang was in a trance and returned to the time when he was full of yearning to join the army, and he served the country with enthusiasm.
Yuan Chang pondered for a moment and asked the five people: "It's not impossible for you to continue to stay and be soldiers, but the suffering you will suffer next will be unbearable for ordinary people, can you bear it?"
In the era before Yuan Chang crossed, he had to undergo a physical examination before joining the army, and many people could not fulfill their idea of joining the army because of physical defects. Moreover, Yuan Chang traveled through the previous era, the population of Huaxia was too large, and the physical examination was quite strict, as long as there were some defects, there was no * can not pass guΓ². Because of the large number of people, the state will not force conscription as it does now.
Of course, this is relative to the average person. Like the children of some officials, they can use their power to send their children to the army, which is called experience, but in fact, it is to mix military merits in it, and sometimes some soldiers have obtained military merits, and they can arrange their children to this team, and they will become soldiers with military merits, and then they can be promoted.
In fact, when people with flaws overcome their own flaws, then their achievements will surpass ordinary people and reach the point of being extremely extraordinary. However, the pain is unbearable for ordinary people.
"My lord, as long as we can continue to stay, we can endure no matter how much suffering it is. β
"That's right, my lord, please give us a chance!"
Even after listening to Yuan Chang's words, the five of them still did not give up, which shows how resolute their attitude is.
Yuan Chang nodded with satisfaction, in fact, he didn't necessarily have to let the five people be soldiers. However, the five people are so enthusiastic, if he rejects the five people, wouldn't he interrupt the ideals of the five people, and sometimes give others a chance, but in fact, he also gives himself a chance. Therefore, Yuan Chang decided to say the method.
"Flat foot is best corrected at a young age, that is the easiest. You're all getting young, so it's more difficult to correct it. My method is that you walk barefoot on sharp stones for at least an hour every day, and after a long period of exercise, maybe there will be a slight change, or maybe it will not change, you have to think clearly. β
Because walking on sharp stones, the soles of the feet will subconsciously contract and arch after a long period of exercise, resulting in a shallow arch. However, the bones of adults are basically fixed, and it is very difficult to change them.
"My lord, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will not give up!"
"Thank you, for giving us this opportunity!"
The five of them sincerely thanked Yuan Chang and left resolutely. At this time, everyone is resting, but they do not plan to rest, they have to use this time to start exercising, and they are determined to overcome the defect of the plank foot.
Yuan Chang watched the movements of the five people, and soon, after enlisting the help of his friends, they covered a clearing with sharp stones, and then the five of them walked on it barefoot. Even though the soles of their feet were cut and blood was spilling out, they still stood up and continued to walk despite the pain. This was their only chance to overcome the slabs, and if they hadn't grasped it, they might never have become a soldier. For this, as they themselves say, they can endure no matter how much pain they have.
Next to the five people, many companions were watching, as if they were moved by the spirit of the five people, and they were all loudly cheering and cheering for the five people, and their morale was unprecedentedly high.
"My lord, they are so determined, it is difficult not to become elite. β
Zhao Yun stood beside Yuan Chang, his eyes flickered, and he said with emotion.
"Hmm!"
Yuan Chang nodded approvingly, and then looked at the other three. They also fainted, but it was not because of the flat feet, and looking at their pale faces, it was thought that it was because of anemia.
"My lord, if we have any defects, we are willing to change them, and I hope that my lord will give us a chance. β
"Yes, my lord, please give us a chance. β
Seeing Yuan Chang's gaze, the three of them hurriedly pleaded. The three of them were originally Ye Gucheng's subordinates, and they had also trained under Han Sui for several months, and the previous training was mostly to practice the spear's thrusting, stabbing, sweeping and other actions, there was no strenuous exercise, and their symptoms were not found.
In fact, it is easy to understand that they used to live on the island with Ye Gucheng, and the materials on it were extremely scarce, and some of the food required by the body for energy was not eaten, which caused the cause of anemia. As for why other people don't have this situation, there is a good chance that these three people are picky eaters and don't eat some things, so that this happens.
"Huh!"
Yuan Chang smiled softly and comforted the three of them: "Your problem is not big, but you didn't eat well." When the time comes, I'll ask your instructor to change everyone's food, and you'll be in a much better condition. β
Hearing Yuan Chang's words, saying that the three of them didn't have much of a problem, the three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They had been training with Han Sui for a while, and they had a deeper sense of belonging, and such days were more fulfilling than their previous raids, and they were reluctant to leave.
Subsequently, Yuan Chang gathered Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and Han Sui aside to discuss.
"As I said, the three of them had a problem with their food, which is why this happened. Maybe many of them have this situation, but they don't come out. Therefore, we need to prevent it now before it happens again in the future. β
Han Sui hurriedly asked, "Lord, is there any way?"
These people have been training with Han Sui for a long time, and Han Sui naturally has feelings for them. Moreover, these people are all very good soldiers, and after training, they can all become elites, and they are also a great help to Yuan Chang, so Han Sui naturally doesn't want anyone to leave.
"They call it anemia because there are some elements missing in the body. The solution is very simple, that is, to use the liver of animals as food, and regular consumption can solve the problem. β
"Gross..."
Hearing Yuan Chang's words, Guo Jia immediately covered his mouth with his hand, turned his head to the side, and retched. The expressions of Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and Han Sui are not very good, but they are better than Guo Jia.
Han Sui frowned, forcibly resisted his disgust and asked, "Lord, can you eat those things?"
It's no wonder that Han Sui would ask such a thing, in ancient times, animal livers were considered dirty and ominous, even the poorest people rarely ate animal livers, unless it was in the era of famine, when they were hungry, they had to eat to satisfy hunger, and in normal times, the liver was directly discarded. Of course, there is another kind of people who will not be disliked, and that is beggars, for whom there is no dirty or ominous word as long as they can eat.
Even in the era before Yuan Chang's crossing, people in many places continued this idea and never ate animal livers.
Yuan Chang earnestly taught the four people, ** said: "You are really rare and strange, you must know that the liver of animals is unusually delicious, every time I think about it, it makes my mouth water, and I tell you that you don't understand, as long as you taste it once, you will know what is really delicious." Alas, it's a pity for you that you haven't tasted that delicious taste when you're so big! Forget it, I won't force you not to eat it, but they can't help it. β
"Han Sui obeyed the order, you asked the villagers of the provincial village to buy chickens, ducks, and pigs in nearby villages and counties to raise, make their livers into dishes, and give them to eat, this is an order, you must not object, do you hear it!"
"Subordinates listen to orders!"
Han Sui clenched his fists to receive his life, but he couldn't help but ask, "Lord, can you eat pork?"
That's right, before the Song Dynasty, pork was rarely eaten. Don't look at the fact that pork can be cooked into countless delicacies in later generations, but before the Song Dynasty, it was a food that no one cared about.
Before the Song Dynasty, pigs were mostly raised to obtain fertilizer, simply put, to obtain pig manure, think about it, how many people dare to eat such things? Besides, pigs look disgusting, arching in the dirt all day long, dirty Cheng dΓΉ is more powerful than beggars, can't stand to look at, let alone eat. However, it was not until the time of the Song Dynasty that the famous poet Su Dongpo wrote a poem "Eating Pork", especially the famous Dongpo meat, and since then pork has become an indispensable food on the table of the common people and even the scholar class.
"Alas, I think you are so wretched, that you have never tasted any of these delicacies until now. Well, your lord, I will be merciful, and find a time to show you that your days have been in vain. β
The four of them looked at each other when they heard this, not to mention eating pork, Yuan Chang would also cook, and the four of them felt that they really wanted to see and see.
