Chapter 11 Cooking
After a while, the things were finally ready, Cheng Hong took a bucket of well water and a bag of smashed salt mines, and said to the surroundings: "Look at what I do."
I saw Cheng Hong sprinkle the salt mine into the bucket one by one and then found a stick and began to stir, Cheng Cai recorded on the side, Cheng Yanjin headed by Cheng Gong and a group of soldiers stretched their necks in the outer circle to watch, Cheng Hong said while stirring: "The broken ore can not exceed 30%, add water to the whole barrel of about 80%, stir must be even, try to stir for a while, so that the salt in the mine is fully integrated into the water."
Pointing to the guy next to him: "Come on, you can stir this, and I'll make the filter device." Cheng Hong picked up the silk cloth and spread it on a large funnel, and then began to fill the washed coarse sand, filled one-fifth and spread a layer of linen cloth for charcoal, and the charcoal was loaded with a quarter of a layer of linen, and the top layer was still a layer of coarse sand and a layer of linen, and a simple filter device was completed.
At this time, Cheng Hong saw that the stirring was almost there, picked up the solution and slowly poured it into the funnel, the water slowly seeped down, and the water under the funnel flowed into the bucket that had been placed in advance, and the ore left in the bucket Cheng Hong handed it to the soldiers on the side and said: "Continue to stir with some water, and then use this filter, this ore is estimated to be washed twice, and the salt is almost gone, and then throw it away."
The pro-soldier should "No! At this time, Cheng Hong picked up the filtered salt solution and handed it to the man: "Come on!" It's up to you this time, go to the stove and boil the water dry and salt is inside, remember to brush the pot clean, don't get a smell of insoles! ”
Cheng Yanjin leaned over: "Can this really burn salt?" Cheng Hong replied: "We'll see in a moment." The man took the wooden barrel and held the baby, and ran to the kitchen to start boiling salt, the water was not much, and it was the first saturated solution about two quarters of an hour, and a finger-wide eye cream appeared on the waterline next to the pot, Cheng Hong took the chopsticks and tasted it, and it was done, there was no peculiar smell. Cheng Yanjin hurriedly asked Cheng Hong: "How is it?"
Cheng Hong nodded, pointed to the circle of hoarfrost and said: "The salt has already come out, and when the water is evaporated, the salt will all come out. Cheng Yanjin saw that the salt was still listening to it in front of him, picked up the knife he carried and scraped it half a circle along the pot ring, and stuffed it directly into his mouth in Cheng Hong's surprised gaze, and the salty ones squinted their eyes and burst into tears, and ate the salt in a daze.
Cheng Hong swallowed his saliva, this must have half a spoon, you are not afraid of death. Cheng Yanjin drank two bowls of water in a row to smooth out this breath, and slapped Cheng Hong's shoulder with a big fan-like hand: "Good boy, your boiled salt is no less than grabbing Jieli." I'm going to write an excerpt asking for merit, Cheng Gong! I took my token and went to Youzhou to find Wei Xiaojie, and said that the 30,000 troops of Yunzhou would be stationed three miles out of the city so as not to be trapped in the lonely city. After saying that, I went to write the recital in a hurry.
Not to mention Cheng biting the gold, there are more than 200 pro-soldiers standing in a military posture here, Cheng Hong came back and saw that his forehead was sweaty, but none of them were lazy, including the thirty diggers who dug the pit and stood back after digging the pit, and each person tied a hemp rope on his right arm, looking like he was standing and no different from others, Cheng Hong walked in front of the stage and shouted: "Take a break!"
Two hundred and ten people are neatly aligned, it seems that the thirty are specifically asked, Cheng Hong continued: "Very good! Shame and then courage is still saved, the sword on the battlefield has no eyes, if you want to shed less blood in wartime, you have to sweat more when you practice, now start grouping, just dig the pit for the thirty squad leader, each with six soldiers, the squad leader himself designated the squad deputy, but the squad leader and the squad deputy are not fixed, every three days to organize a martial arts.
If the soldier feels that his strength is higher than that of the squad leader, he can apply to challenge the other squad leader, and each squad leader can accept a maximum of two challenges, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
If no one challenges the squad leader, the squad leader washes the clothes of the class that won the battle against the losing squad and now starts to divide the class. ”
The thirty people began to call friends to find the soldiers they were familiar with, and the soldiers began to get together with the close squad leader for a while, and then the shift was completed, and after the squad leader was divided, the squad leaders consciously restrained the soldiers for a period of confusion, and then lined up into a thirty by seven phalanx headed by the squad leader.
Cheng Hong said: "Okay, that's it, I will start to choose a room for two shifts and a room, take the house as a team, I will check from time to time, the quilt should be folded, the room should be clean, one person is not qualified and the whole team will be punished, no punishment will be punished, the clothes of the qualified team will be punished, if they are not qualified, I will go next door to ask for clothes for you to wash." Now dismiss and clean the house and gather before dinner"
At this time, all the pro-soldiers secretly said in their hearts: This Cheng Qianniu is too bad, the old man does the work of the girls, washes clothes, washes the crotch cloth, and can't afford to lose this face when he does this job! "Why are you still stunned? Do you have a lot of time? "Squad leaders, look at me, I'll see you, leading the soldiers to the room and start cleaning.
The cleaning here is in full swing, Cheng Biting Jin next door is busy, one by one tokens are sent everywhere, Cheng Cai goes to contact the head of the casting and boiling salt, and the 30,000 army packs up and prepares to move to Yangu to station......
Wei Xiaojie here looked at the application for the transfer of troops brought by Cheng Gong - informed Wei Gong, the governor of Heng'an Road, the governor of Youzhou: The new Qianniu Wei Cheng Hong captured Jieli outside the city, and I Lao Cheng personally raised a hundred soldiers to meet one mile outside the city, although Jieli has been captured, but he was afraid that the Turks would rescue him, so he placed the soldiers three miles outside the city, and if someone came to attack the city, he should join the outside. Wei Xiaojie looked up at Cheng Gong with a confused expression: "Jieli caught it?"
"Yes!"
"You want to send troops out of the city?"
"Yes!"
"Afraid of the Turks attacking the city?"
"My general didn't say this."
"Cheng Lao'an dares to bully me! Jieli has been caught, what is left of the Turks? Still the Turks attacking the city? Which time did the Turks go south and not go around the city? The Turks who got off their horses are not as good as sheep, and you told me that you are afraid that the Turks will attack the city? ”
After speaking, he grabbed the application for troop transfer written by Cheng Biting Jin and threw it to Cheng Hong: "Go back and tell Cheng Lao Hu, I didn't receive the application, and I don't know about the troop transfer and Jieli, and he will carry it himself if there is a mess!"
Cheng Gong hurriedly rushed back to report to Cheng Yanjin after agreeing, and when he walked to the door, he still heard the scolding inside......
The next day, Cheng Biting Jin's 30,000 army pulled out the camp and went to Yangu, in addition to the personal soldiers in the city, Cheng Ping was left with 500 soldiers to guard the city gate to maintain order.
Far away, the state and county have already contacted the merchant to increase the price as soon as possible, and the battalion here has used a horizontal knife to chop wood, and the tools for smashing stones over there are even more varied, and the chain hammer and chain flail are all ordinary with guns and stone locks......
Anyway, I heard that this is the salt after the soldiers broke out with great enthusiasm, the lack of salt in the army, and the lack of the people, this is not salt, this is all white silver, bright military exploits!
Cheng Hong is looking at the various weapons of the soldiers in front of him here, there are more than 200 people, dozens of weapons, knives, guns and sticks, forget it, the brother over there, what are you doing with a stove hook? Oh! It's Go!
The tip of the spear broke. Cheng Hong gave an order: "The three people who use the bow and arrow in each squad use spears, and the remaining three people use swords and shields!"
After a while, the sword and shield spear was in place, the spear hung five catties, and was held at an angle of forty degrees, listening to the order to stab, and the whole team was not evenly trained, the sword and shield soldiers tied sandbags in their right hands and held the shield in pairs in pairs, first with a shield to protect the collision, and then with a wooden stick in their right hand to attack and defend each other, and required that the wooden stick should not be smashed, and all were stabbed.
In the afternoon, I ran three miles away and the salt truck to carry the salt back, Cheng Qianniu called this a weight-bearing cross-country, oh now it's not called Cheng Qianniu, I want to call the instructor, I want to talk and shout a report, and I urgently gather at night, 500 meters of obstacle running......
The variety of training content makes them miserable, to say that the only fun is that every night after the literacy class Cheng instructor talks about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, as long as each person is literate six times a day, the instructor will give a chapter of the Three Kingdoms, three days later, even Cheng Biting Jin came to listen to and threatened Cheng Hong with a military stick, if you don't talk about two more chapters to beat you with a military stick......
The candles in the Ganlu Hall were flickering, and there was a small package of salt with excellent quality and appearance wrapped in oiled paper on the table.
I looked at the report of the secret spy department next to me: Cheng Hong - not yet the year of the weak crown, the words of the table belong to the Tang Dynasty, he was ordered by the master to return to the Tang Dynasty to recognize his ancestors, and he returned from traveling alone for four years in the year of the bundle of hair, and he captured Jieli outside Dingxiang, his fists and feet were good, he was skilled in training, quite disciplined, and his kung fu was about the same as the number of five or five in the period of General Qin's total victory, and the divine horse under the seat stepped on the cloud golden unicorn, and there was no horse to run with weight......
The scattered are all Cheng Hong's actions these days, and finally there is a revised version of the Three Character Classic and a Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The three-character scripture has been until the Tang Heavenly Mandate, the rebel division, in addition to the Sui chaos, Wan Shiping!
(Li Yuanzhenguan died in nine years, and after he died, the temple name was Tang Gaozu, and now you dare to write Tang Gaozu uprising or something, how many heads are enough to fall off?) )
Li Shimin looked at the three-character scripture, huh! Catchy and enlightening! These three kingdoms are plausible but also wonderful, especially the opening word, brilliant atmosphere, good, good! After reading it over and over again, it was itchy to spread out the rice paper and copy it over Linjiang Xian, and the flying white body in one hand jumped on the paper, and then a female voice came softly: "Your Majesty, it's time to rest!"
Li Er turned around: "Guanyin, I said I don't need to be like this, I still like you to call me Erlang, so that it is like a home!" "Your Majesty, Erlang, it's time to rest at such a late hour."
