Chapter 23: A Visit from an Old Friend

The tone was set in this way, Li Ming as the vanguard, Wang Yu and Xin Bi did not come forward, after all, this is just a small level, originally it was a small city without a climate, with Li Ming's ability, it can be broken independently.

In contrast, the two of them can respond in the rear and help Li Ming solve some problems in the rear. If he comes forward at this time, Wang Yugu doesn't say it, Xin Bi is only afraid that it will cause Yuan Shao's dissatisfaction, and Yuan Valve's investment in Xin over the years has also been a lot. As a result, when he came back to his senses, Xin Bi threw himself into Li Ming's camp, just afraid that he would be annoyed and angry.

The problem of grain and grass was naturally all counted and sent by Yuan Shu, and the provision of grain and grass was provided by Han Fu and Tao Qian. Jizhou, where the former is located, has recovered well in agriculture in the past two years, and this year it is rare to have a bumper harvest, and there is a lot of surplus grain in the state treasury; Xuzhou, where the latter is located, is also an important grain-producing area, and there is also a large amount of grain.

The only thing that made Li Ming criticize was that the food provided by the coalition army was all corn, and the salt was all inferior coarse salt, and there seemed to be a lot of sediment and other things in it, according to Li Ming's estimate, more than a dozen cans of coarse salt could purify about five cans of refined salt, which was already very good. Even if it is preliminarily purified and the sediment is removed, it is estimated that there are only about ten cans left.

"There are no vegetables and no meat, and I suddenly feel that I have come to the alliance, and I have come to find guilt!" Li Ming looked at the grain transported to the camp and couldn't help but feel helpless.

"For you, if it weren't for a batch of experience, I'm afraid you wouldn't plan to go north at all, right?" Wang Yu joked that sometimes he was very envious of Li Ming, and killing people could gain experience and improve his strength. And these subordinates can only slowly accumulate experience and upgrade through hard cultivation. And depending on the situation, under normal circumstances, it is estimated that you may not be able to reach level forty when you are fifty years old.

Thankfully, taking spirit beast or demon beast meat can also increase your experience points. It's just that Li Ming is the only one who has the means to cook demon beast meat, and cooking requires medicinal food skills, which means that cooking and medical skills must be improved simultaneously, Wang Yu feels that he doesn't have this time, including Zhang Mo or Xiao Yao, it is estimated that he will not have this time.

In other words, their future future is largely in the hands of Li Ming. It is even said that after killing Li Ming, it is very likely that the secret techniques on their bodies will also be lifted, and after getting used to the benefits of data, it is impossible for them to want to return to the state where they may be killed by someone with an arrow or a shot at any time.

"Well, there's a lot of forest around anyway, isn't it? Just go out a little bit to dig some wild vegetables, or catch some prey, or even catch some fish, and the children are also used to eating delicious and delicious food, so let them eat salty corn and rice every day, it is estimated that they are not used to it.

If you really want to calculate it, you spoil them like this, and the monthly food expenses are not low! Isn't it because of the fact that the soldiers of Huiji County can't expand quickly? Bai Xin came to Li Ming and teased.

It doesn't matter if you don't handle logistics, only to find out that Li Ming's food expenses are not ordinary. There must be at least fish at Dunton, meat must be eaten one day in five days, and three meals a day are served.

Of course, the effect is also to stand out, look at those soldiers of Huiji County, one or two are radiant, even if they are ordinary soldiers, the muscles all over their bodies look so powerful. will be selected as a pioneer officer, there are also factors in this regard, looking at the entire camp, in addition to the royal command, only the white horse under the command of Gongsun Zhan is such a physique.

Looking at the soldiers under the command of other princes, especially the two thousand soldiers under Yuan Shu, such soldiers cannot be called soldiers, they can only be called consumables! However, if you look closely, in fact, what everyone brings is not cannon fodder?

I participated in the board of directors! Yes, what they want is this result, it doesn't matter if they can really crusade against Dong Zhuo!

"After all, Emperor Han is also good in the hands of Dong Zhuo!" Xi Zhicai said with a smile, of course the princes' careful thinking could not hide from him.

As long as the Han Emperor is in Dong Zhuo's hands, then all the edicts of the imperial court can be called chaotic edicts, as long as they are declared to the outside world: Dong Zhuo coerced or forced the Han Emperor to write them. Anyway, as long as there is this excuse, it can be ignored.

Everyone can operate their own territory in peace and stability, and then find opportunities to annex the surrounding territory and grow step by step. In the end, in the name of the Qing monarch, or in the name of eliminating the traitorous and evil, he entered Luoyang, in case the Han Emperor was 'accidentally' killed by the traitorous ministers, and he could enter two options: recommend a small emperor to the throne, or directly recommend his subordinates to ascend the throne and become the emperor.

Look at those princes again, one or two are actually not good people! There may be loyal people, but there are too few such people! Even if it is Kong Rong, a descendant of Confucius, he may not have the idea of earning fame this time, anyway, their family is impossible to be the emperor, but if they are not the emperor, then the new monarch will naturally favor them in every way!

Back in the camp, seeing that he was about to leave tomorrow, Li Ming came to the place where the Huotou Army was located and opened a small stove for himself.

Huotoujun's side is obviously used to Li Ming's this, and he doesn't care about it, even Zhou Ze's disciples will come over to fight and learn the craft of cooking with both hands by the way. After all, everyone knows that Zhou Ze, the god of food, was taught by this one!

"Lord, there is a text and a martial artist outside, saying that it is the old man of the adult!" Xu Chu suddenly arrived and reported to Li Ming.

After a while, Dian Jie also came over and added to Li Ming: "Lord, the military attache is the young man who followed Tong Yuan in the past, I didn't expect to see him for five years, he is a lot more handsome, and he is also a lot more powerful!" The literati didn't know him, he only said that he was an old man from Yingchuan! ”

"Oh? Let him be in my tent later, and say that I will invite them to dinner tonight!" Li Ming was stunned, then remembered a figure, and immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare flour and make some pastries. As for the other person, there are probably a few assumptions.

Half an hour later, Li Ming changed his clothes and returned to the camp tent, where there were already firehead troops, and the prepared food was brought up one after another. Li Ming sat down on the low stool and said with a smile: "You can't drink alcohol in the camp, otherwise you will be allowed to taste the fine wine brewed there!" But there is no wine, but there is tea, a cup? ”

In front of the low stool were two folding tables, filled with all kinds of food, but they were not evenly divided, but the dishes and chopsticks were poured in three.

After having a table and chairs, Li Ming also brought the habits of later generations, and everyone did not share meals, but ate around a round table. After all, in his opinion, what is the difference between sitting at a round table and sharing meals, and a certain island country?

At first, everyone was hindered by class, and they couldn't do it on that side, but then they got used to it and let it go. Each dish has a chopstick, and the seating is also exquisite, and the etiquette has not changed in essence, but has only been improved.

"Since we all eat at the same table, I don't plan to divide the meal, so I just use chopsticks to put it in the bowl if I need to." Li Ming pointed to the chopsticks on the plate, "If the two of you are not used to it, it doesn't matter if you share the meal......

"It's good to be a guest!" The scribe arched his hand, "Dawn...... Riyao really has tea, then you have to take it out and taste it, that thing is sold to Yingchuan, one or two teas need to be consistent, you can't afford it, you can't afford it! ”

"Feng Xiao is still like this......" Li Ming smiled, he didn't expect it to be this one.

Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, a ghost genius of the Three Kingdoms, unfortunately died young. Li Ming has been paying attention to him and has wanted to recruit him, but several times, he has refused because he is too young. In the final analysis, it is also a problem for Yingchuan Guo to get too close to Yuan Valve.

"Zilong, I also made some pastries this time, do you want to try it!?" Li Ming looked at the other person.

"The adult's pastry, the cloud is still unforgettable, I am grateful!" The military attache replied.

Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, the white horse and silver spear are loyal to the liver and courage, and the investment in Luoyang in the past seems to have won his favor.
