Chapter 343 - A Treaty That Is Ready to Be Torn Up Before It Has Been Identified—6
Suning still didn't know that his plans had changed at this time, he only knew that the troops of the Resting Empire, who were confronting him on the battlefield in the middle line, had begun to evacuate. Their destination was obviously the Khorasan region, which had already been attacked, but Suning did not immediately mobilize his own army to occupy the land they had left behind, because their forces on the central front were so weak that they were only enough to see a key pass. Therefore, if you want to reoccupy the high annex city abandoned by the other party, Suning must mobilize enough strong forces from other regions.
What's more, one of the important goals of their campaign in this campaign, in addition to wanting to achieve the purpose of peace talks, is also to take down Gedrosia controlled by the Sabbatarian Empire.
Therefore, he did not rush to expose the intention of expanding the war on other fronts, on the contrary, he was able to communicate with the rest of the empire and the major military forces again and again to convey the desire for peace and friendship, but unfortunately the other party is not willing to believe his words at present.
This is actually not a matter of concern for Suning, whether the other party believes it or not, it will not hinder the overall situation in the end, because it is not Suning's good wishes that can bring them back to the negotiating table, but their weak national strength in front of Suning.
What's more, Suning has another killer feature. Those envoys who left the Rest Empire, you should have reached the prime minister of the Eastern Roman Empire, as long as they can meet the Roman Emperor smoothly, then the rest of the Empire will be nourished with the Kushan Empire, facing the tragic situation of being caught between the east and the west.
Suning had actually calculated the ownership of this victory in his heart, but he didn't know how long he would have to wait for this day.
Waiting is painful, and people don't like it, so they always think of ways to relieve it, and given that the weather in the Hindu Kush is so cold, everyone, including Suning, likes a way of eating that became popular after 1800.
After the water in the copper pot boils, the base and vegetables of various colors are thrown into the boiling water. A few of them put the snow in the boiling water, which is said to improve the freshness of the food, but Suning doesn't believe that, preferring to fiddle with his favorite dipping sauces. Since the food does not take long to boil in the copper pot, even if the flavor of the base is very rich, it will not allow them to adhere to these ingredients, so having a small plate of excellent dipping sauce when eating can solve this problem.
One of Suning's favorite ways to eat it is to put a small plate of leek sauce next to the pot when shabu mutton. This sauce is very common in the north in later generations, and both Shandong and Inner Mongolian people have a deep affection for it, because when it is entered, the stimulation of the mouth can often be unforgettable.
If it can be chewed together with mutton, it will undoubtedly greatly improve the umami of mutton, and who first discovered this delicacy and when it became widely known is no longer a matter of discussion, and they are only willing to spend their time on tasting this delicacy. And Suning is also one of such people.
Li Yu, who was eating with him, was very curious about this way of eating, so he also tried to learn from Suning, and sure enough, he quickly stretched out his tongue and nodded with satisfaction, the stimulating effect of sulfur-containing compounds in the mouth made him a little craving, and the delicious mutton made him fall into the clouds.
Soon, this way of eating was popularized to the army, and the logistics and transportation troops who shuttled back and forth between this mountain pass were infected by this novel way of eating, after all, they had to travel long distances on the cold road, and if there was a food to relieve their fatigue, it would undoubtedly be a blessing from God for them.
So they brought this way of eating to most places that the Han army could control. And after a year and a half of war, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty army could not wait to treat their poor taste buds, so this practice was even passed to the more distant station of Aries Jiedu Mansion, and even Liangzhou already knew about it.
In view of the fact that most of the areas controlled by Suning now produce mutton, the local demand for meat and sheep has risen to a new height in an instant, which has made the local chief executives begin to cry, because the price of mutton has soared to an unacceptable level, so alternatives such as beef and pork were quickly put into the market, and to some extent were also well received, but the degree of this welcome seems to be too violent, because most of the soldiers have found that Even if it is replaced with other meat, this way of eating is still very delicious, so they began to be more crazy obsessed with this way of eating, and the most serious consequence is not that the meat products in Liangzhou District cannot keep up with the supply, but them. The speed of smelting copper products could no longer keep up with the production of copper pots, and this situation quickly attracted the attention of upper management.
After the price of metallurgical products soared sharply, the price of relatively cheap iron products also rose to a certain extent, at least making the sale of iron ore another lucrative business. And a large amount of iron ore affecting other fields, seriously affecting the production speed of Liangzhou military enterprises, such a threat is tantamount to the level of national defense and security, so the major managers, including Xun Yu Xun Wenruo, immediately asked for the introduction of corresponding policies to deal with this extremely rare phenomenon in history, even Suning, who invented this way of eating at the beginning, did not notice that their system was so fragile that there would be such a big crisis in front of a food.
If he knew this, he didn't have the heart to dare to talk about these things anymore, he believed that the summoners who took pictures and sent them would definitely be able to deal with the problem of reproduction, he only needed to command the battle on the front line, but it was the operation he commanded that seemed to have a very serious problem, when Huo Quzhi violently attacked Gedelosia, he encountered very bad news and appeared in front of Suning, Chen Qingzhi, who was attacking from the north, seemed to have chosen to turn his gun for some force majeure reason and rushed directly to the Persian Plateau, the hinterland of the Anxi Empire, which was not affected in their original plan, and the stimulated Anxi Empire was likely to choose to start a full-scale war with the Han Dynasty.
