Drinking? ”

In the hall, Luo Cheng asked with a smile, and he brought a bottle of fine Gaochang wine.

The red wine in the glass bottle is very beautiful and tempting to desire. Princess Deman smiled slightly, "The concubine doesn't know how to drink, but you can accompany Your Majesty to drink." ”

"This temperament is free and easy, I like it, so drink some."

"I'll get some snacks for Your Majesty."

"You can also cook?"

Princess Deman not only cooks, but also does it well.

In fact, the diet of Silla and the Central Plains is actually very similar, after all, they are also an agricultural civilization, and millet, sorghum, soybeans, barley, and rice are also commonly cultivated at this time.

The food structure determines the staple food structure of the people, and the Silla people also generally raise cattle, horses, pigs, dogs, chickens, ducks, etc. However, in general, different regions will slowly form some of their own unique eating habits.

For example, the Silla people like to use soybeans to extract oil, make soybean sauce, and even like to make fish and meat into dried or sauce for long-term preservation.

The princess got Luo Cheng a dense flower.

"Dense flowers?"

But Luo Cheng has the impression that the most famous twist flower should be Tianjin hemp flower, which is fried pasta. However, according to her, the dense flower that the princess got was made by boiling and drying beef, chicken, pork, etc., which should be regarded as a kind of jerky.

After eating a little, I found that it was surprising and tasted good.

"I heard that you Silla people like to make kimchi."

"The sage also knows about Silla kimchi? In Silla, it is true that every household makes kimchi. ”

The princess seemed to be surprised that the emperor knew about Silla kimchi, and was also very happy, so she really took a jar of kimchi at the moment, which she brought from her hometown to Silla, and she always felt better when she ate a little of these.

There are plates of kimchi on the white jade plate, including pickled cabbage and pickled radish, but unlike the bright red and bright color of the Korean kimchi that was found in later generations, most of these kimchi are just their true color, and they do not have that tangy spicy taste.

It's right to think about it, there are no chili peppers at this time, only some dogwood or some wild peppers, which are completely different from chili peppers.

Take a bite, it's not bad, and it has the feeling of Sichuan kimchi.

"The concubine also brought some rice cakes, oily fruits, flower tea, persimmon juice, sauce fish, etc. from Silla, do you want to taste them?"

"Okay, let's get some and try it."

"Actually, we have a lot of delicious food in Silla, but we can't bring them all to Your Majesty to taste."

Luo Cheng chewed on the dense flowers, "The Central Plains is a big Tebo, there are more kinds of delicacies, and you can taste more if you have the opportunity." ”

Compared with the food of the Central Plains, Silla is really far behind, but for the princess, the Silla food represents the taste of her hometown, which is different.

Two glass glasses, filled with red wine.

"Here, a toast."

The princess took a small sip, and her face flushed.

Kimchi with a small bowl of casserole porridge is really good.

"The princess likes the taste of her hometown, and in the future, I will ask Silla to pay tribute at four o'clock, and let Silla send some good cooks, so that the princess can eat it every day in the future."

Princess Deman saw that Luo Cheng had finished drinking a bowl of porridge in a few clicks, so she got up again and helped him fill another bowl.

"Your Majesty, the concubine heard that the vanguard of the Japanese army has landed on the coast of Baekje, why did Your Majesty delay sending troops to reinforce Andong?"

Luo Cheng smiled.

"The princess didn't know that although I didn't send a large army to reinforce Anton, I also ordered the counties of Anton to raise all their troops. On the surface, there are only 12,000 soldiers, but in fact, there are more than 30,000 elite soldiers who have been dismissed before, and they will be transferred to the reserve after retirement, and they can be immediately turned into soldiers after being called up in wartime. What's more, Liaodong can also be reinforced at any time, and the Yan Ya, Xi, Khitan and other vassals are also on standby to go south at any time. ”

As long as the situation is not out of control, there is no need for the imperial court to send additional troops and horses, and the more troops sent, the greater the logistical pressure. Luo Cheng didn't think that the war would end in March or May.

Not to mention, in fact, the emperor has another killer feature.

"To tell you the truth, I have already sent the Bohai Merchant Fleet to set off. He had just received the news that Wei Zhongxian was reminded by the Bohai merchant ships, and he led his fleet to Tamna Island, southeast of Baekje, and defeated the island of Chau Hu, who had been annexed to Baekje. ”

The princess is no stranger to Tamna Island, which is the largest island in the southeast of Baekje.

The people of the island are very backward in their language and customs from those on the peninsula.

It is only 80 miles from the coast of Baekje.

If the Qin fleet occupied this island, it would be a great threat to Baekje, especially to the Japanese people.

It's just that she doesn't quite understand why the emperor sent a merchant fleet over.

"This Bohai merchant fleet is not simple, it is owned by the royal family, with more than 30 treasure ships, hundreds of other large and small ships, and there are two whole regiments of escorts, 4,000 elite soldiers."

The state Hu on Tamna Island, according to research, they were originally a branch of Dongyi in the Central Plains, and later came to live on this big island across the sea, inheriting from generation to generation, and the Central Plains called this island Dongyingzhou, Dongtu, Dongyi on the sea, Daoyi and other names.

These people are very primitive and backward, there is no city, they live in thatched huts, they don't know how to use cattle for farming, and they live a very primitive and backward life.

Its area, that is, the size of an ordinary county in the Central Plains, although its islanders have been kings of Gaoyi for generations, but this kind of islander is vulnerable to the royal Bohai fleet led by Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian led people to land, and directly broke the other party's royal capital without walls, captured their kings and ministers alive, and destroyed this small island country very easily.

Wei Zhongxian planted the Great Qin flag on the island, and said that the island had a good climate and was suitable for raising horses, so he suggested to the emperor that the island should be subordinated to the Bohai Fleet, where horses would be raised, and used as a supply point port for the fleet, and a port would be built here to build forts and garrisons.

Luo Cheng also knew that this was the later Jeju Island, during the Yuan Dynasty, it was also the horse breeding base of the Mongols, raising tens of thousands of horses on the island, and the oranges on the island were very famous.

Of course, the scenery here is also beautiful.

Wei Zhongxian was very ambitious and wanted to use Tamna Island as the fleet's private island, but Luo Cheng did not agree, but directly named Tamna Island as Dongying County, which belongs to Guangling County of Huainan Province, this county is thousands of miles away from Guangling City, it is undoubtedly an enclave, but Luo Cheng doesn't care about this.

It belonged to Guangling County, but it was assigned to the Bohai Fleet as a supply port for the Bohai Fleet.

Princess Deman smiled.

"Your Majesty's attack on this island seems to be not only aimed at Baekje, but also seems to be aimed at the Wa Kingdom."

"If the Japanese people are bold enough to join forces with Baekje to oppose Qin, they have to bear the consequences. I heard that the first army of the Japanese people was 20,000, and there will be tens of thousands more, and they seem to be ready to gather the strength of the whole country to reinforce Baekje, so I will let them all feed the fish at sea. ”
