Chapter 278: Scout Camp (Part II)
Fang Bo lifted the lid of the kettle and took a look at whether the broth inside was cooked, because of the great victory over Rong Di in the past few days, there was not a lot of meat in the Wuguan army, so that there was a shortage of salt, so that the clerk who managed these meats distributed all the injured herds.
The scout camp also has a lot of profits, but ...... What made Uncle Fang sigh was that Han Yan actually got a few pigs in exchange for joining the army!
The most important thing is that this Han Yan joined the army because he didn't know the price of firewood and rice, and he actually wasted a lot of salt for those greasy and hard-to-swallow pork!
This made it difficult for Fang Bo to sleep for a few nights when he was distressed, it was the salt of the white flowers, and he could get ten times as much as he could get anywhere in Daqin...... Even more grain!
For the pork...... Actually wasted so much salt, if it was someone else, Uncle Fang would definitely scold this person endlessly, but Han Yan joined the army...... Uncle Fang could only secretly regret it.
Uncle Fang's youngest son, named Fang Gui, although he was reprimanded by Uncle Fang, there was not much frustration on his face, after all, in the battle of Danshui, Fang Gui had killed two of Rong Di's heads!
Now it is rumored that the scout camp will expand into a tent of 500 soldiers, and with such merit, Fang Gui will be able to become a Shiwu commander even if he is not the best!
Uncle Fang stayed in the scout camp all his life, but he was only the chief of Shiwu in the end, and among them, Fang Gui still thought that his father's qualifications were his own.
Who let Uncle Fang be his son, since his father has spoken, Fang Gui can only listen, but this time it is indeed his own riding skills.
"Uncle Fang, don't be too harsh, Fang Gui killed two Rong Di this time, and the credit is not small!"
Hearing that Uncle Fang was scolding Fang Gui, Huang Lie, who entered the man's tent, also comforted.
Fang Bo turned around and saw that it was Han Yan joining the army and Huang Lie coming, so he also stepped forward and saluted: "I have seen a centurion who joined the army!" ”
Immediately afterwards, Fang Gui and the other old men also stepped forward to salute.
Lin Yuyan waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite, I don't want to be charged with delaying the sergeant's meal!" ”
"Haha......" Uncle Fang and the other old men laughed one after another.
Huang Lie commanded: "Go and do your own thing!" ”
Everyone just dispersed, Fang Bo was boiling the broth, it is said that even some wild vegetables picked in the autumn of last year were used, no wonder the aroma was tangy.
Although the smell of meat is slightly fishy to Lin Yuyan, compared to the scout camp soldiers who often don't eat meat, this meat fragrance is indeed mouth-watering.
Huang Lie walked to Uncle Fang's side and said with a smile: "Uncle Fang, today it seems that with this fragrant fragrance, you can eat half more!" ”
"Yes, yes, ......yes," Fang Bo agreed, and then said with a smile: "There have always been regulations in the army, and there are three components of the captured materials to run the soldiers who participated in the war. It is precisely because of this that there are a lot of injured herds waiting to be killed, and those Rong Di are indeed good at raising these things! ”
Speaking of this, Fang Gui, who had been helping Uncle Fang burn the fire, also interjected: "Dad, this time my son also killed two Rong Di!" ”
When Uncle Fang heard this, he glared at Fang Gui angrily and said, "Just burn your fire, what are you talking about!" ”
Although it was meant to scold, the joy was overflowing, and it seemed that he was very satisfied with Fang Gui's achievements, but he still stubbornly scolded: "If you really have the ability, why did you fall off the horse?!" ”
A sentence blocked Fang Gui and he couldn't say anything, Fang Gui pursed his lips and muttered secretly, that is, he continued to burn himself.
Only then did Uncle Fang look at Lin Yuyan and Huang Lie and smile: "This bastard boy! ”
Lin Yuyan also stepped forward and said, "Fang Gui is already quite an unbelievable offspring!" ”
"That's it!" When Fang Gui heard this, he nodded and muttered, but was glared at by Uncle Fang again, and then honestly continued to burn the fire.
Fang Bo turned around and said to Lin Yuyan: "Join the army, this kid can't afford such praise, it's easy to be proud!" ”
Lin Yuyan shook his head and said, "If you can't be proud, then why bother to be born and die on the battlefield and leave a few scars on your body?!" ”
Uncle Fang didn't actually want his youngest son to be confident, but he was afraid that his proud soldiers would easily get carried away on the battlefield and eventually die, Uncle Fang had survived on the battlefield for most of his first life, among them, he saw countless soldiers finally die tragically under the enemy's knife, and now Fang Gui is far from being a soldier, so how can Uncle Fang not worry?!
"This is beef soup?!"
Lin Yuyan also does not decide this matter, Uncle Fang is Fang Gui's father, it is a family matter, Lin Yuyan inserts it in moderation, too much is not beautiful.
As soon as he heard that Han Yan had joined the army, he smelled the delicious beef, and Uncle Fang also smiled and said: "Your Highness, this beef is a rare thing, if it weren't for the fact that Dasheng intercepted a lot of herds from Rong Di, it would be something that you can only dream of eating beef on weekdays!" ”
Immediately, Uncle Fang lifted the lid of the kettle, used a big iron pestle to pound the beef soup in the kettle, and said proudly: "The craft of boiling beef soup is learned from mediocre people when he was young, you can see when you join the army, this soup is added with dogwood, ginger and garlic and other wild vegetables, boiled for a long time, the entrance is very chewy, and then boil for a while, a bowl of fresh soup will be served to the army to taste!" ”
"Good, good!" Lin Yuyan nodded, then glanced around, and asked again, "Uncle Fang, what about those pork sausages that Han Qi sent over?" ”
"Pork sausage? ......Speaking of this, Uncle Fang's smug expression disappeared, this pork intestine was definitely a memory that made him unable to sleep, but since it was Han Yan who joined the army and asked, Uncle Fang said with a stiff face: "It has been steamed on top of the food in the big wok according to the instructions of Han Qi's guards, and it should be able to be steamed......"
Lin Yuyan nodded, those pork sausages are a new thing, in the past, they couldn't touch the food that civilians like pigs didn't like to eat in the palace, so they didn't taste this delicacy of the later generations for a long time, which is why Lin Yuyan decided to exchange two stones of grain when he saw the pig at a glance.
Uncle Fang finally couldn't help it, and persuaded Lin Yuyan: "Maybe you have never eaten pork when you join the army, the pork is very fatty, and it is difficult to swallow a few pieces when you enter the throat. ”
Lin Yuyan had long heard that the soldiers in the army looked down on pork, and looking at Uncle Fang's bitter and hateful look, it seemed that the pork handled by primitive methods was indeed not delicious...... So much so that when these old Qin people mentioned pork, they all had a look of disgust.
