Chapter Ninety-Five: The sky is cold and the heart is hot

If Yun Lang's words counted, he would prefer to march towards Mobei in winter.

Although there is less scorching heat and severe cold in the spring, it is very reasonable for the combat troops, but it is very unfavorable to him, the general Wei who supervises the transportation of grain and grass.

After the snow melted, the ground began to recover.

The hard earth becomes soft, and once the heavy grain and grass cart walks on it, it is easy to sink into the mud.

Moreover, the east wind gradually rises in spring, which will cause great changes in the atmosphere, and this time is also the time when the wind and sand in the desert are the largest, and the legendary black sandstorm often appears at this time.

Yun Lang hoped that before the army moved, Liu Che adopted Liu Che's suggestion to start transporting grain and grass to the border pass.

At the beginning of winter, Zhao Ponu and Li Kang had already taken the lead in setting off, and at the same time, some of the grain and grass were also transported away.

Yun Lang thought that the march was too far and it was not easy to carry grain and grass, so it was necessary to abandon the ordinary military rations of the past and take high-calorie and high-quality military rations as the main body, and only in this way could we reduce the carrying capacity of the huge military rations with millet, sorghum, and beans as the main body.

The plague last summer led to the slaughter of a large number of poultry and livestock in Shanglinyuan.

These poultry and livestock are all made into bacon or dried meat, and there are not enough dairy products, so Yunlang also makes some supplements with various dried tofu.

Liu Che also adopted this article.

As for Yun Lang's suggestion to take the lead, he was rejected by Liu Che without hesitation.

Liu Che will never obey a certain person, no matter how clever your suggestion is, he will only listen to it once, and it is already a very rare thing to be able to agree to Yun Lang's suggestion twice in a row.

Since then, Yun Lang has never continuously admonished the emperor, but has said his own admonitions from Cao Xiang and Huo Quai's mouths respectively, and the emperor can easily agree to them all.

Yunlang's deputy will be Cao Xiang!

This is a decree that cannot be changed.

It is also what Yunlang likes to see.

It's strange to say, Liu Che never suspected that Cao Xiang would betray him, and Yun Lang didn't expect to use Cao Xiang to harm Liu Che for a long time.

After so many years of close brothers, Yun Lang knows where Cao Xiang's bottom line is!

Get some money?

That's fine, the more the merrier.

Gain the right to do it in a small area?

That's fine, you can get a little more.

As for killing Liu Che?

Cao Xiang had never had this thought in his heart, including in his dreams, and he didn't have the idea of replacing it.

The person who also insists on this point also has Huo Quzhi!

In his heart, he would not allow Liu Che to be hurt even if he died.

Yun, Huo, and Cao are one, so it is easy for Liu Che to come to a conclusion - Huo Quai's loyalty is no problem, and Cao Xiang's loyalty is no problem, then, through the above two people, you can basically come up with an explanation that Yun Lang is probably no problem.

In fact, if the Yun clan wants to be unfavorable to the big Han, it is basically a mayfly shaking tree, and it can't make any big waves.

Since the other two families are loyal and filial sons of the Han Dynasty, the Yun family can't be a filial son or grandson.

Yun Lang's recent work is to prepare military rations for the army that are suitable for long-distance transportation and are not easy to mold and spoil.

Jerky is undoubtedly one of the most important.

Even if it was jerky, Yun Lang still felt that it was inappropriate, so he ordered all the jerky stored at home to be sent to the water mill.

The dried meat entered the grinding eye one by one, and then the meat powder slowly fell from the edge of the water mill.

Yun Lang loaded a plate of meat powder from the edge of the water mill, brought it to Liu Che, who came to inspect the production of military rations, and said: "Your Majesty, this is meat powder, after being mixed with fried noodles, it is a very good military food that can be eaten quickly." ”

Liu Che grabbed a handful of meat powder, looked at it, sniffed it, and said, "The meat powder should be easier to carry, right?" ”

Yun Lang said with a smile: "This is natural, this northern expedition, the road is far away, there is no flat road on the desert for military food carriages to walk, if you want to quickly transport military food, the only feasible way is to carry horses on people's backs."

Even so, Wechen is still not optimistic about the prospects of military food transportation. ”

Liu Che smiled.

"The road is far away, the inaccessible track, hardships are inevitable, and I believe that my great warriors will eventually be able to reach Beihai."

After Liu Che finished speaking, he handed the meat powder on the plate to Gillian and said, "Rinse me with hot water, I want to eat." ”

Yun Lang took the plate with a smile and said, "You don't have to work nobles, Weichen will make it himself." ”

Liu Che's brows furrowed and said, "No need, I can eat whatever the soldiers want, and you don't need to be a master of cooking to cater to my taste." ”

Yun Lang said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, people's body needs are extremely wonderful, not only need food, but also need salt, tea, these accessories to cooperate, otherwise the energy is still not enough." ”

As Yun Lang spoke, in front of Liu Che, he picked out various accessories from the dozen bowls on the case, and after adding meat powder, he brewed seven or eight bowls of military rations with boiling water, personally picked up a bowl and sent it to Liu Che, he himself picked up a bowl and said: "Weichen hasn't tried it himself, and today is also a meat open." ”

Liu Che didn't eat the bowl, Yun Lang didn't eat either, and he didn't eat a bowl of Gillian either.

The first person to eat was the emperor's guard general Zhao Chong, and then Sui Yue, Da Changqiu, and Zhong Liyuan.

Zhao Chong ate quickly, and as soon as he raised his neck, a bowl of hot meat porridge was swallowed by him, and it was not too hot.

After Sui Yue and the three of them finished eating, the meat porridge in the emperor's hand was no longer too hot, and Yun Lang said with a smile: "Your Majesty might as well taste it slowly and see if you can taste other flavors from it." ”

Liu Che took a sip and tasted it for a moment and said, "It tastes good, and you add tea?" ”

Gillian, who had just taken a bite, said: "There are dried tofu, salt, sugar, and yunlang in it, this meat porridge is sweet or not, and the taste of salty or salty is not good." ”

Yun Lang put down the bowl in his hand and said to Liu Che: "Salt and sugar are indispensable substances for the human body, when Wei Chen is making these military lights, the first thing to consider is whether the daily meal can support the hard work of my Han soldiers for the next day, as for the taste, it is really not the first need." ”

Liu Che ate a bowl, wiped his mouth and said, "It's not bad." Yun Qing, are you going to grind all the dried meat into powder? ”

Yun Lang pointed to the table, and Liu Che followed Yun Lang to the table, carefully looking at the dozen or so big bowls on the table.

Liu Che checked them one by one, and the things on the table were all food, and there would be no problem if they ate it.

After Gillian read it, she was a little sad, pointed to the oil residue in a large bowl and said, "This is also a necessity?" ”

Yun Lang nodded and said: "All the fat meat is used to refine oil, the army sets off, and every soldier can get a small jar of lard, oil residue is a bad thing in the eyes of nobles, but it is a rare delicacy in the eyes of the people."

Not only oil residue, but also pig bones and chicken bones all need to be sent to the water mill to grind into powder, and finally become the food in the mouths of the soldiers. ”

Gillian said to Liu Che with red eyes: "Your Majesty, we are not short of food. ”

Liu Che sighed and said: "Lacking the ability to transport grain to Beihai, I have hoarded a large number of cattle and sheep in the four places of Baishan Mountain, Yangguan, Dunhuang, and Youbeiping.

Five catties per person, which can support ten days, under extreme conditions, mixed with the rest of the wild vegetables, mountain mushrooms can protect the needs of the army for a month.

Yun Qing, deliver the recipe to the Zhongjun Mansion, and the mixed military rations will be made by them! ”

Yun Lang hurriedly agreed.

Naturally, military rations cannot be delivered to a private individual, and it is only right that the state should make them.

Although making military rations can make a fortune, Yun Lang doesn't have any idea of making money at this time.

The army went out of the customs and went on an expedition of thousands of miles...... This is not a business that can make money!

Su Zhi has an official body, she is the only one among the women of the Yun family who has an official body, and after returning from the last time she returned from the army to fight in Baishan Mountain, she is the doctor of the Han Dynasty's five hundred stones.

"Dr. Su Zhi, the medical officer of Weichen, requests to bring a hundred medical workers to accompany the army to take care of my injured and sick warriors!"

Su Zhi's medical skills have long been famous, although many people have criticized her for liking to dissect corpses, Liu Che has never ordered to stop her.

Now, seeing Su Zhi's request to go with the army, he slowly stood up, motioned to Sui Yue to help Su Zhi up, looked at Su Zhi and said, "A pair of young sons in the family, is it possible to leave their mother?" ”

Su Zhi bowed down again and said, "If Weichen doesn't go, who will?" If Wechen only cares about his own young sons, my Han will add more orphans and widows, Wechen and the young son are just a little goodbye, if they are only greedy for these pleasures, the young sons of those injured soldiers will probably be forever with their father!

Please allow Your Majesty to accompany the expedition with the army! “
