Chapter 142: Commando
Chu Yunning thought that this group of vanguards followed Emperor Ming Wen to suffer in the mountain col for five days, and they must have been hungry and tired.
So she went directly to the dining room, prepared a sumptuous meal for these people, slaughtered five sheep, a dozen chickens and ducks, and ordered people to catch dozens of fish.
They set up a simple oven, washed the mutton, skewered it with a big bamboo stick, smeared it with honey several times, sprinkled it with a special sauce, and roasted it on the fire, and after a while, they smelled the aroma of mutton.
Roasted five whole sheep and asked people to clean up the internal organs, Bixiu couldn't help but ask: "Miss, can you eat these aquatic goods?" ”
Ordinary people don't eat it, will it be too perfunctory to reward the soldiers?
"These are all good things, boiled in a big pot of haggis soup, and with leek sauce, it tastes absolutely beautiful." Chu Yunning couldn't help drooling just thinking about it, chopped the lamb tripe, lamb liver, and lamb kidneys into small pieces, put them in the pot, and added a large pot of water to boil slowly.
The rest of the sheep's head was steamed and sprinkled with a secret sauce, and in her opinion, the sheep was full of treasures and could eat anything.
Bixiu didn't doubt that he had him, and he worked harder to help.
Worried that there would not be enough to eat, Chu Yunning asked someone to make dough again, ready to make mutton roasted wheat, with thin skin and big filling, steamed out of roasted wheat crystal clear, it is tempting to look at.
The chicken and duck meat was stir-fried, some of which were made of spicy flavors, and the other part of which were made of ordinary braised meat, because she was worried that some people would not be able to eat spicy, so she made two flavors.
Dozens of fish were cleaned and cut into thin slices, half of which was made into boiled fish, and the rest was made into sauerkraut fish, also in two flavors.
Remember https://m in a second.
This busy time is three hours, obviously it is winter, but she is busy sweating profusely, sweat keeps flowing down her cheeks, and she casually took out a clean handkerchief and wiped her sweat.
"Miss, go and see how the haggis soup is, according to what you said, it has become milky white." Bixiu sniffed, thinking that the haggis soup would be very fishy, but she didn't expect it to have a different taste, and after drinking half a bowl of belly, her whole body was warm and comfortable.
Chu Yunning lifted the lid of the pot and looked at the tumbling mutton soup, put out some of the food made today in turn, and ordered; "Take all that is left to reward the soldiers who have worked hard for the past few days, so that they can eat and drink enough."
"Yes!"
Chu Yunning went straight to find Emperor Mingwen with the food box, and when she went, there were ministers discussing things inside, so she didn't go in, and stood outside the tent and waited for a while.
A figure was reflected outside the tent, and Emperor Mingwen knew that it must be Chu Yuning as soon as he guessed it, so he immediately stopped what he was doing: "This matter can be discussed later, you go down first." ”
"Yes!" Several generals were already hungry, smelling the smell coming from the dining room, waiting and waiting, and finally waiting for Emperor Mingwen to release them, and several generals couldn't wait to retreat.
Lifting the curtain, Grandpa Mo came to pick up the person in person: "Chushang Palace, it's cold outside, come in and warm up." ”
There was a charcoal fire burning in the tent, and a stream of heating came to his face, Chu Yunning put the food box on the table and opened it: "Your Majesty, I've been waiting for a long time." ”
Emperor Ming Wen looked at a few dishes, still steaming, at first glance, it was just done, he was also hungry, but he still took care of his identity, did not gobble up, smiled and praised: "You still have the ability, you can make delicious soup with a simple salt, keep the cold and warm, A-Ning, you are really good." ”
Chu Yunning smiled slightly, and put the leek sauce in front of Emperor Mingwen's eyes: "Your Majesty, taste this, the mutton is tender and delicious, not fat at all." ”
Emperor Mingwen tasted it in turn, and nodded uncontrollably, Xu was hungry, and there was almost not much food left in the food she brought.
"What does the emperor think of this craft?"
Without waiting for Emperor Mingwen to speak, Gonggong Mo patted his chest on the side and said: "The slave originally thought that Chu Shanggong's medical skills were superb, but now the slave feels that Chu Shanggong's cooking skills are definitely the best in the world, and the slave has lived for such a long time, and he has never eaten these fresh tricks." ”
This is all the truth, Gonggong Mo has been with Emperor Mingwen for a long time, what good things have not been seen?
Chu Yunning hooked his lips: "Then the emperor thinks that every time he wins a battle in the future, he will be rewarded with a sumptuous meal, how about it?" ”
Emperor Mingwen laughed, he knew that as long as Chu Yunning opened his mouth, there would definitely be other things.
"Don't be in a hurry to answer the emperor, wait an hour, how about asking a few generals?" Chu Yunning said that this can be regarded as finding some fun in the strict and boring life of the army and stimulating the fighting spirit of the three armies.
"It's up to you!"
An hour later, Emperor Mingwen summoned several generals, and several of them came in rubbing their stomachs, and one of them hiccuped as he walked, with a satisfied face.
"The last general...... Belch...... Meet the Emperor...... Hiccup......"
Emperor Mingwen raised his hand: "How are you eating?" ”
"Your Majesty, the last general has grown so big, and he has never eaten such a delicious meal, especially the haggis soup, which is fresh, and the roasted whole sheep, which is tender and fragrant, and the sauerkraut fish is also very delicious, and the boiled fish is spicy, and the last general is still warm all over his body."
Hearing this, Emperor Mingwen coughed lightly twice: "If you can eat these every time you win a battle, what do you think?" ”
"Really?" Several people spoke in unison.
Looking at the performance, you can see that you can't wait to immediately carry your weapon to the enemy and fight for another three thousand rounds, the corner of Emperor Mingwen's mouth twitched slightly, how did he feel that his subordinates had suddenly changed and became a little bloodthirsty.
"The emperor's words are not allowed to be denied, the last general can hear it clearly, I won't tell you, when the last general passed by the barracks just now, how many people watched the brothers who returned from winning the battle eat and drink, the last general has been with the army for so many years, or the first time to see this situation, and now the soldiers can praise the emperor's wisdom."
Listening to the other party blowing a rainbow fart, Emperor Mingwen's stiff face loosened a little, and his eyebrows and eyes faintly smiled.
"Your Majesty, do you count?" Suddenly, a soldier asked.
"Lao Li, you are crazy, you dare to question the emperor!" Lao Li was suddenly frightened by a roar from his companion, and hurriedly waved his hand: "Your Majesty, the last general has no other meaning, but I'm worried about whether the sheep will be enough, and the sheep don't have anything to eat in winter, so they can't raise them." ”
Today, these sheep are still brought by the local offerings, and hundreds of thousands of people are simply not enough.
Emperor Mingwen deliberately bluffed his face: "I glanced at Jiuding, you just have to put your heart in your stomach, and charge me well, and I will have my own reward when I come back." ”
"Cheng, as long as the emperor can say it, the last general will trust it." Lao Li smiled: "Your Majesty, can you bring the last general with you every time you fight in the future?" ”
Emperor Mingwen frowned: "That's it?" ”
"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to share the emperor's worries." Lao Li said with a smile.
The remaining few people were also afraid of being forgotten by Emperor Mingwen, so they expressed their heartfelt hearts, seeing this, Emperor Mingwen waved his hand angrily: "Enough, you all retreat and rest." ”
"Yes."
After a few people retreated, Emperor Mingwen turned his head to look at Chu Yunning with a smile: "This idea is good, and it is also interesting, but where to get these sheep, I listened to your words and directly agreed, if you can't do it then, my face will be lost." ”
Chu Yunning nodded: "The emperor can rest assured, the ministers have their own methods." ”
"What's the method?" Emperor Ming Wen asked curiously, he wanted to know how Chu Yunning would solve this problem.
"Start a breeding industry, so that the surrounding villagers can raise sheep, we buy them according to the market price, as for food, it's simpler, just plant grass."
Emperor Mingwen raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but smile: "A-Ning, why can't you forget to do business anywhere?" ”
"Uh......" Chu Yunning looked embarrassed, where business is needed, there is her, everyone takes what they need, what does it matter?
"Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to win this battle as soon as possible, defend the border passes, the war is not a matter of a day or two, and at the same time, it is also depleting the stocks of both sides, sometimes if you hold it for a long time, you may win."
If he could, Chu Yunning hoped that there would be no war for the rest of his life, the people would live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone would be reunited.
Unfortunately, in reality, it may not be allowed.
She is not the Holy Mother, she can only do her best to protect the people of her country, as for the rest, Chu Yunning can't do it for the time being.
Emperor Mingwen changed his words and asked, "In your opinion, when can this war be fought?" ”
"If it's fast, it's a year and a half, and if it's slow, it's possible to do it in three or five years."
Even if the four countries join forces to attack, as long as the troops at the southern end are enough to resist, they are not afraid at all, and when they join the army, what they are most afraid of is not the attack of the enemy, but the discouragement of the army, and they will be taken advantage of by others to enter and hit with one blow.
"Yunlan Kingdom has suffered a big loss this time, do you think there will be other actions next?"
Chu Yunning touched her chin, she didn't know anything about the leaders of Yunlan Country, and only said: "Either regain your strength and do another sneak attack, or go back to recuperate and wait for the opportunity, then what does the emperor plan to do with the soldiers captured alive?" ”
According to military regulations, either take this soldier to the other party's to exchange for something valuable, or kill the public.
Emperor Mingwen's fingers lightly clasped on the table, making a crisp sound; "What do you think it should be?"
"Hold them for five days, eat and drink well, entertain them, and serve them as guests, and then put back two of the leaders, and if the rest can be used, they will be left to be coolies, and if they are not willing to surrender, they will be killed!"
Before eating, Emperor Mingwen discussed this issue with several of his subordinates, but he was not very satisfied, and the matter was disputed.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yunning had other ideas, which made him a little surprised.
"Chu Shanggong, the minions don't understand this matter, those are all enemy troops, how can they let the tiger return to the mountain?" Father-in-law Mo asked confusedly.
Chu Yunning hooked his lips and smiled: "The two sides are the most taboo in the war, the other party's troops are the most taboo, the food and grass are sufficient, and they are not afraid of this battle at all, if this matter spreads out from our mouths, the four countries may not believe it, but if it is spread through the mouths of these people, the four countries will weigh and weigh, don't steal chickens and rice at that time, it will not be cost-effective to cause a commotion." ”
Saying this, Emperor Mingwen suddenly laughed, and immediately decided: "What you said is not wrong, just follow what you say, there is no need to deliberately treat several generals as guests, and you must not lose money in eating and drinking." ”
"Yes, the minion will do it." Grandpa Mo stepped back.
Emperor Mingwen turned his words and said to Chu Yunning: "A-Ning, you are really a wisdom bag, fortunately you are from the southern end, otherwise I would not have the confidence to win this battle." ”
Able to write and martial arts, can also farm and know medical skills, superb cooking skills, courage, resourcefulness, how many women in this world can do this?
"Your Majesty, there's nothing to do, and the ministers will retreat first." Chu Yunning looked at the sky, she had to go back to water the ginger, and she had to continue to sprinkle the seeds.
Emperor Mingwen personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chu Yunning: "It's hard work." ”
The sudden care made Chu Yunning's eyebrows twist into knots, and after hesitating for a moment, he took it, thanked him and drank it all.
Opened the curtain and went out, there were already snowflakes outside, Chu Yunning looked up at the sky, wrapped himself tightly, and walked back step by step.
It seems that she has to quickly plant the ginger and distribute it to the soldiers to ward off the cold, and on the way she met Grandpa Mo who turned back, and Grandpa Mo said tremblingly; "Chu Shang Palace, you should be careful, the snow is slippery, this year's winter is extremely cold, you have to be careful in the middle of the night, don't freeze."
Chu Yunning smiled slightly, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "How do you usually keep warm in the camp?" ”
"Hold on." Father-in-law Mo snorted: "How can there be so many charcoal fires burning every day in the war with the army." ”
The southern end is already considered conscientious, and the clothes distributed to the soldiers are all thick cotton to protect against some cold.
Chu Yunning nodded and said that she understood, and now she has another idea, burn charcoal, and refine a large amount of charcoal to solve the problem of keeping the three armies out of the cold.
Back in the greenhouse, a warm air came to her face, and she took off her big hat and walked to the field to watch the ginger grow.
Ginger the thickness of a little thumb has grown, and it will be ready for it in a short time.
"How many greenhouses did you detain today?"
"Back to Chushang Palace, eleven."
Chu Yunning shook his head: "These are far from enough, and we have to send more people to continue to detain the greenhouse." ”
When the words fell, the other party was a little reluctant, and couldn't help muttering: "Chu Shanggong, we are here to fight on the battlefield, not to farm." ”
"That's it, with all these bells and whistles, it's better for us to fight each other with real knives and guns."
Some people have long been unhappy, and they have been working hard to do some farming work, and when they spread it, they have lost their faces.
originally thought that after deducting a few greenhouses, Chu Yunning would be able to stop, but he didn't expect that the other party would be out of control and would have to deduct it.
Chu Yunning frowned: "Of course, those who go to the battlefield are heroes, if everyone has this kind of thought, then who will guarantee the logistics, only the logistics make people worry-free, and the people who are fighting in front can put their minds at ease and fight with all their might." ”
"Anyway, we want to go to war, we don't want to stay and farm." One of them took the lead and threw away the hoe in his hand.
The rest of the people also followed suit and threw down their hoes, motionless, waiting for Chu Yunning to give an explanation.
Chu Yunning sneered when he saw this: "So you are all here to threaten me today, right?" ”
