At dawn, the Tang army's soldiers and horses had already begun to assemble, and all the warships were making final preparations. Pen "Fun" Pavilion.fo

Although Li An is just to demonstrate this time and force the king of the ring kingdom to sign the alliance under the city, he has no intention of using force, but all the preparations for force cannot be relaxed, in case the other party does not know how to raise and is unwilling to sign the alliance under the city, then he has to do it, although this possibility is not large, but it is also necessary to make full preparations.

Breakfast was prepared an hour in advance, so before dawn, all the soldiers and horses were already full, Li An was too tired last night and didn't want to get up early to eat, so only Li An didn't eat breakfast, and Li An, as the main general, could have breakfast after getting on the boat.

"Li Shilang, all the soldiers and horses are ready to go."

The subordinate reported loudly outside the door.

"Got it."

Ang Lee sat up tiredly and asked Yuna and the beautiful woman beside him to dress themselves.

Looking at Yuna and the beautiful woman with a shiny complexion and a good complexion, Ang Lee secretly sighed that it was good to be a woman, she enjoyed the night, but she could be radiant the next day, but Ang Lee, as a man, was so tired that she didn't want to get up.

It is said that there are only tired cattle and no cultivated land, which is not false at all, which Li Ang has to admit.

But even if he is tired to death, no cow has complaints, men are so responsible, just like a cow, even if they are tired to death, they have no regrets, and they are a little happy.

If there is no cultivation of cattle, how can the people have no worries about food and clothing, and if there is no man who is happy to work hard, how can human civilization continue.

"All men in the world are great, work hard to bring happiness to women, great, great!"

Ang Lee sighed while admiring the two radiant beauties.

"Ah Lang, get dressed."

Yuna and the beauty retreated to the side with a smile.

Li An straightened his clothes, strode out of the tent, and walked towards the boat, and faintly heard two chicks laughing at him behind him, forget it, they are all used to it.

At this moment, all the soldiers who went out to fight were on their respective ships, and all the ships were full of soldiers who went out to fight, and the flags and armor echoed each other, creating a solemn momentum.

"Big brother, the soldiers are all ready, just waiting to go."

Li Feiyu had already gone to bed, and when he saw Li An coming over, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Li An nodded and said, "Then what are you waiting for, set off immediately." ”

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

With the sound of huge war drums, more than 100 large ships began to set off in turn, marching towards the city.

Li An sat on the rocking chair of the command platform, shaking comfortably while looking at the water and sky in the distance.

The most beautiful thing about the sea is that it is vast, and it is easy for people to become broad-minded, so seeing the sea often helps to make one's mind broad-minded, which is very beneficial to people's physical and mental development.

Li Ang did not live by the sea in his previous life, and he went to the beach very rarely, but every time he went to see the sea, his heart was very wonderful, and he felt that he had become a lot taller all of a sudden, especially standing on a high reef and looking at the sea, this feeling was the most comfortable.

After coming to Datang, Li An has also been living in the inland area, except for going to the seaport of Laizhou, only this time to go south to see the ocean.

Because I don't see much of it, I don't get tired of seeing it, and as long as I look at the sea in front of me, I always feel very comfortable.

"Yun'a, serve tea."

Li An ordered with his eyes closed.

Soon, Yun'er brought a cup of hot tea and gently placed it on the table next to Li An.

Li An took a small sip of the tea and felt a little hot, so he gently put it down and drank it after it was cold.

"Ah Lang, you haven't had breakfast yet, have you? This is freshly fried poached egg and lamb slices. ”

The beautiful lady brought breakfast intimately.

"It's so fragrant, it's a fragrant poached egg, and lamb slices, let's eat breakfast first and then drink tea!"

Ang Lee was really a little hungry, so he picked up the poached eggs and sliced meat and ate them.

The combination of eggs and meat for breakfast is still very good, however, it is not suitable to drink tea after eating these things, and it is better to drink some milk and soy milk in the morning.

Dairy cows have not yet been popularized in Datang, and besides, it is not suitable to carry cows on the ship when going south, so it is not realistic to want to drink milk, and it is a good idea to drink soy milk, but soy milk needs to be prepared for a long time, not milking.

The materials needed to grind soy milk are relatively simple, only soybeans and grinding discs are needed, and of course, water and buckets are also needed.

Before leaving, Li An was carrying a grinding plate, and it was a miniaturized grinding plate, as long as it could satisfy his appetite, it was enough, and the rest of the soldiers could drink white water, and they couldn't be too spoiled, or they would all be raised as big girls, so that their combat effectiveness would be reduced.

"Come on, take out the grinding disc and put it on the deck, by the way, and soybeans and water, buckets, all of them."

Li An ordered softly, and walked to the command platform, and ran to the deck, the area of the command platform is small, and it is not very convenient, and the area of the deck is very large, which can play a posture.

"Alang, what are you going to do?"

Yun'er doesn't know what Ang Lee is going to do, she hasn't seen grinding soy milk with her own eyes when she's grown so big?

Although soybean milk has been invented in the Western Han Dynasty before the Tang Dynasty, it has not gained large-scale popularity, after all, this thing itself was not invented by ordinary people, but invented and made by Liu An, the famous king of Huainan at that time.

The steps of making soy milk are a bit complicated for ordinary people, anyway, they are all eating, and it is not enough to cook the beans directly, but it takes a lot of trouble to grind on the grinding plate! Moreover, the beans themselves are dry food, and after being ground into soy milk, they all turn into thin water, and I feel a little hungry.

Of course, the main reason is that it is too troublesome, how can ordinary people have so much leisure to spend such a big thing, and the taste of soy milk is not everyone's favorite.

Of course, soy milk and tofu as the food of the wealthy class, it is still very well handed down, some aristocratic families have soy milk, and Ang Lee prefers to drink milk, so there is no equipment for grinding soy milk at home, this time, it is the first time to grind soy milk?

Soon, all the raw materials were ready and placed in the middle of the deck, and a stool was placed next to it for Ang Lee to sit down and grind.

"You may not have seen it, this is a grinding disc, it is used to grind soy milk, this soy milk! It is very delicious, and the most important thing is that it is rich in nutrients and is very conducive to digestion and absorption. ”

Ang Lee opened his mouth to introduce.

"Soy milk, I've heard of it, but I haven't drunk it."

Yuna said.

"Ah Lang, are we going to grind soy milk now?"

The beautiful woman seems to be very interested in grinding soy milk.

Li An nodded and said, "Let me tell you, grinding soy milk is very interesting, let's grind soy milk now." ”

After speaking, put the soaked soybean grains into the small hole of the grinding disc, then pour in a certain amount of water, and reach out to turn the grinding disc.

Because the size of the grinding disc is very small, Li Ang does not need to walk back and forth around the grinding disc, he only needs to stand in place to operate, which is very convenient.

"Alang, let me try."

Ang Lee had just pushed a few laps, and Yuna thought it was funny, so she ran over and competed with Ang Lee.

"Okay, let you come, and when you're tired, you'll change to a beautiful woman."

Li An let go of his hand and let Yuna grind.

At the beginning, Yun'er had not yet mastered the essentials of grinding soy milk, and the action was very irregular when grinding, always stuck, under the careful guidance of Ang Lee, she soon mastered the essentials of grinding soy milk, and her movements became more and more skilled, and more and more soy milk was grinded.

"Haha! Let's have fun! Look, the white soy milk has been ground out, add water and beans. ”

Li An said, adding some soybeans to the small hole of the grinding plate, and also pouring some water.

Looking at the milky white liquid, flowing out of the cracks of the grinding disc bit by bit, Yun'er and the beauty both had a strong sense of achievement, so they took turns to grind and grind all the soybeans prepared by Ang Lee, and couldn't help but sigh Ang Lee, women are born to be masters of grinding soy milk.

It didn't take long for the wooden barrel under the grinding disc to be filled with milky white soy milk liquid, which looked very pleasing to the eye and made people salivate.

"Ah Lang, we have grinded a lot, what about a big bucket full?"

"Ah Lang, are these all drinkable? I asked strangely. ”

Yoona and Pretty said.

Li An smiled: "These are raw soy milk, they can't be drunk, they must be boiled before they can be drunk, come on, take these soy milk to boil." ”

"Yes, Aaron."

It will take some time for the soy milk to boil, and Ang Lee needs to wait patiently before he can drink the nutritious soy milk.

During the waiting time, Li An explained to the two the nutrients of soy milk and the various trace elements it is rich in, and the two of them were stunned.

To put it simply, soy milk is a liquid food made by soaking and grinding soybeans in water and boiling them, which is rich in nutrients and is very beneficial to digestion and absorption.

It is an ideal food for the prevention and treatment of common diseases in later generations, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis, iron deficiency anemia, asthma and other diseases.

From a microscopic point of view, soy milk is rich in plant protein and phospholipids, as well as vitamins BI, B2 and niacin, as well as iron, calcium and other minerals, especially its calcium content, which is higher than any animal dairy products, and is very suitable for all kinds of people to drink, including the elderly, adults and teenagers.

Drinking soy milk is not divided into seasons, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, drinking soy milk in spring and autumn, moisturizing yin and dryness, reconciling yin and yang, drinking soy milk in summer, dissipating heat and preventing heatstroke, quenching thirst, drinking soybean milk in winter, warming the stomach, nourishing and tonifying, in short, there are many benefits.

In addition, when grinding soy milk, you can also add a little other ingredients, such as peanuts, red dates, wolfberries, mung beans, lilies, etc.

"Ah Lang, the soy milk is cooked."

Soon, a bowl of boiled soy milk was brought to Ang Lee's eyes.

"Soy milk should be drunk while it is fresh, all soy milk is served, everyone should try it!"

Li An said very generously.

The freshly boiled soy milk is very hot, but the sea breeze is very strong, and it will be cold after blowing it for a while.

After all, Datang's soybeans are all natural and pollution-free low-yield soybeans, unlike the soybeans of later generations, which are either cultivated by chemical fertilizers and pesticides, or genetically modified, and the taste will naturally be greatly reduced.

Of course, the taste of soy milk is definitely not as good as adding a little ingredients, and the best ingredient is undoubtedly white sugar, which has a sweet taste, and the people of Datang don't like sweetness.

Datang has sweets, but there has never been such a thing as white sugar, at most it is caramel sugar, the sweetness of caramel is far less than white sugar, and Datang has white sugar, that is, after Li Ang began industrialization.

Sugarcane was already cultivated in China during the Zhou Dynasty, but for many years, no one was able to make white sugar from sugarcane, because they had not discovered the process of making white sugar.

As a descendant, Ang Lee naturally understood the principle of making white sugar, so after Ang Lee industrialized, he quickly made sucrose, so that Datang had sucrose as a food.

The most suitable growing environment for sugarcane is tropical and subtropical, and the southern part of Datang is in the subtropics, which is very suitable for the growth of sugarcane, and a lot of sugarcane is also planted.

Since Ang Lee invented white sugar, more people in the south have grown sugarcane, and the yield is much higher than before.

In addition, there are some crude cane workshops in the vicinity of sugarcane producing areas, and the task of these workshops is to produce brown sugar, the raw material for making white sugar.

The manufacture of brown sugar is much simpler than white sugar, only need to wash the sugarcane, press out the sugary juice inside, and then pour the sugarcane juice into a container, and refine the red crystals at high temperature, which is brown sugar.

White sugar, on the other hand, is further refined on the basis of brown sugar, so as to obtain better quality white sugar.

The brown sugar refining workshop is near the sugarcane production area, after all, if the sugarcane is too troublesome to transport to Chang'an, the transportation costs are unbearable, and after refining into brown sugar, it can be easily transported to the capital.

On the outskirts of the capital, there is a special equipment for refining white sugar, and the brown sugar transported from the south can be refined into more high-grade white sugar here.

When he set off from the capital to the south, Li An brought a lot of white sugar, so there was no shortage of white sugar around Li An, and it was still very easy to eat white sugar.

"Come on, come on the sugar."

Li An felt that the soy milk he drank directly did not taste good enough, so he asked.

"Yes, Aaron."

Soon, a flat bowl of white sugar appeared in front of Ang Lee.

Li Ang scooped a large spoonful of tang with a spoon, gently put it into the warm soy milk, and gently twisted the spoon to stir the sugar evenly.
