Chapter 191: Barbecue with Wine!
readx;?ā It's all up to the adults, I'm okay with that!"
The first to show his attitude was Meng Tian, who had a deep friendship with Wu Fei, and had saved the lives of him and his soldiers in the Death Plains. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info coupled with Xiao Tao's relationship, so he is 100% in favor of any decision Wu Fei makes.
"Li Si also obeys the judgment of the adults"!
"Zhao Gao is too"!
After Meng Tian expressed his attitude, Xiangguo-Li Si and CRRC Fuling-Zhao Gao expressed their views one after another. And their reactions and attitudes were completely unexpected by Wu Fei.
In addition to the transcendent identity of a heaven-sent person, Wu Fei also has the royal status given by the monarch of the Great Qin Empire, King Qin. What he said was basically equivalent to the holy decree of King Qin. Among the few people in his company, he was the one with the highest status, even if Li Si, Zhao Gao, and Meng Tian had any objections, it would be useless.
So the sentence he just asked was basically a polite officialdom language.
"Zhao Wu, since the adults don't hold you accountable, then I won't ask too many questions. Let me ask you, how many military war horses were there in Huangsha City? How much food is slaughtered and cooked this time, and how many war horses are left"?
Since Zhao Wu's guilt has been pardoned by Wu Fei, Meng Tian has not been overly pursued. However, the instinct of the profession made him ask about the current situation of the combat readiness of Huangsha City.
Huangsha City, without military war horses, is like a tiger with its teeth drawn, and it has no ability to resist in the face of barbarians like jackals, tigers and leopards. And the geographical location of Huangsha City is very special, it is right on the border of the Great Qin Empire, forming an impregnable barrier. If it fails, the barbarians can raise troops north and reach the Xianyang Imperial City, posing a serious threat to the Great Qin Empire.
Therefore, the defense of Huangsha City has always been the top priority of the defense of the frontier of the Great Qin Empire. As a general in command of the three armies, Meng Tian is naturally very concerned about this.
"According to General Huimeng, there were a total of 3,000 military war horses before Huangsha City, of which eight were young and strong enough to go to the battlefield to fight; As for the remaining 1,000 and 2, 600 of them have reached old age and can no longer go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and the remaining horses have been wounded in the previous battlefields and are used to transport supplies in peacetime.
More than 800 war horses were slaughtered this time, all of them were old and decrepit horses that could no longer go to the battlefield to fight bloody battles, and there were still 2,000 war horses left that could be used to deal with the enemy."
Faced with Meng Tian's inquiry, the adjutant general hurriedly responded.
Although the order to slaughter the military war horses and cook food was given by Zhao Wu, the process of execution was operated by him. So, no one knows the details better than him.
"In this case, it is very good that you have slaughtered some horses that have lost their combat effectiveness, and that you have preserved the vigor of the army. However, two out of two thousand war horses are still somewhat weak in terms of defensive strength. In this way, I will draw out a thousand elite war horses from the Imperial Iron Cavalry and assign them to you in charge of Huangsha City, hoping that you can firmly guard Huangsha City and protect the territory of the empire from the invasion of barbarians."
After listening to the deputy general's report, Meng Tian was very good, and heroically gave the 1,000 elites of the Mengjia army led by himself to Huangsha City to use as a defensive force.
"General Xie Meng, the last general will not be dishonored"!
With the addition of the elite of the 1,000 Imperial Iron Cavalry, Huangsha City not only replenished the combat effectiveness of the lost 800 war horses, but also improved the combat effectiveness of the defenders to a high level as a whole, which made Zhao Wuhe and the deputy general very pleased.
This is really - Seon lost his horse, and he didn't know if it was a blessing!
Zhao Wu was originally going to be dealt with by the Zhulian Nine Clans, but in the end, there was a drastic change against the war, which really made his heart rise and fall for a while, and he trembled.
"Alright, in that case, please take a seat, all of you! It's rare that General Zhao has prepared such a sumptuous and delicious barbecue for us, so let's eat it to our heart's content"!
At this point, the curtain has come to an end temporarily.
Wu Fei stood on the main seat of the City Lord's Mansion, beckoned Li Si, Zhao Gao, Meng Tian and the others to return to the desk chair and sit down, and then began to enjoy the delicious barbecue.
Although these horse meats are slaughtered and barbecued by some old, weak, sick and disabled, these are military war horses that have fought bloodily on the battlefield for many years, and they have gone through a lot of exercise in their lives, with uniform muscles and delicious taste. Coupled with the unique barbecue process, the grilled meat exudes a layer of golden yellow luster on the surface.
Gently tear the golden exterior of the surface with your hands, and suddenly, the smell of barbecue comes from inside, which makes people appetite great. Even Wu Fei, who was not very interested in meat, couldn't help but use the dagger that had already been prepared on the surface of the desk chair to cut off part of it, and then put it in his mouth to savor it.
"Daddy, Sally too"!
Seeing Wu Fei's expression of enjoyment and intoxication, Sally immediately pleaded to Wu Fei in her sweet baby voice.
"Well, open your mouth, little glutton"!
The next moment, Wu Fei cut off a part of the barbecue meat with a dagger, and then sent it into Sally's small mouth.
"It's delicious!"
After some chewing, Sally couldn't help but praise herself.
Just as Wu Fei and Sally were enjoying the delicious barbecue, Li Si, Zhao Gao, and Meng Tian, who were sitting on the left side of the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, also began to taste it.
"Well, the meat is tender, the flesh is even, it's chewy, it's good. Being able to grill horse meat to this portion, it seems that the fireman who barbecues horse meat is really an expert."
Li Si gently tore off a piece with a dagger and put it in his mouth, and after tasting it slowly, he gave an evaluation.
In fact, in addition to being the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire, Li Si is also a gourmand who has tasted the world's food.
Every time he arrives at a place on business, he first goes to the time-honored restaurant with historical and cultural traditions in the place, and then orders a table of delicious local dishes to savor. During the years that he was Xiangguo, he had tasted at least half of the special foods in most of the territory of the Great Qin Empire. Therefore, when the general food reaches his mouth, it is difficult to rank the upper rank.
However, he was full of praise for the barbecue provided by Zhao Wu today, which was enough to show that the kung fu of the barbecue master of these horse meat masters could make Li Si's picky mouth and stomach be conquered.
"Oh? Lord Xiangguo is so respectful, then Zhao has to savor it."
After hearing Li Si's praise, Zhao Gao couldn't help but glance at the barbecue on the desk chair in front of him with some doubts, and also picked up the dagger and began to taste it.
In the next hour, everyone was busy eating barbecue, and there was a burst of lip smacking in the hall.
Sally and Wu Fei were even more happy to eat. In order to do his best, Wu Fei also deliberately took out the red wine he had purchased before and shared it with everyone.
As the saying goes, "barbecue with good wine is better than living immortals", everyone was a little difficult to accept the taste of red wine at first, but as time went by, they ate and drank a mouthful of wine and meat, and they were not happy.
By the time they finished eating the barbecue placed on the desk chair, everyone was still a little unsatisfied, but their stomachs were already full, so they had to give up. (To be continued.) )
