Chapter 293: Yue Cai

"It's not surprising, it's probably a frog at the bottom of a well. I have never seen the strength of the Central Plains, and I stayed in this small corner. Coupled with the natural obstacles of those primeval forests, they have the idea that they are invincible, but in fact they are vulnerable. ”

Li Hao smiled faintly after hearing this, no matter what time the people in this place arrive, they will have a little bit of inflated heart. In fact, it is not beaten at all, pure paper tigers. In the future, without the help of the East, it would be difficult for this place to establish a country.

It's just that the people here forgot their roots a little after the victory, and even planned a counterattack to the east, but they were taught a hard lesson. It's a pity that these don't remember to fight, and in the future, I always think that with the support of some people, they will harass the eastern side.

So this is also one of the reasons why Li Hao is very unhappy with this place, many of the people here are actually people from the East who have migrated over. And then these people actually came up with their own words, and their own history, and finally made their own decisions.

Li Hao's purpose now is to fundamentally eliminate this country, whether it is words or history, these are not allowed to exist. Only Tang Wen, only all the systems of the Tang people can be allowed here, and all the others have been moved away or destroyed.

There is no problem with all the strongholds, and what Li Hao has to face next is much easier. The capital of Linyi is not far from the sea, and there is a stronghold of the Tang people here, so Li Hao is directly ready to use this stronghold to land on the capital of Linyi and attack it.

At this time, Wang Xuance's news also reached Li Hao's hands, and compared with the smooth sea route, the attack on the land side was a little more troublesome. The march was a little slower than planned, but there were no losses.

When Tang Jun asked people to build cement roads, some people on Linyi's side were not fools. Seeing the prosperity of trade brought by this road, and also seeing the crisis, that is, Datang may use these cement roads to attack them at any time.

However, the place where they border Datang is flat everywhere except for those lush rainforests, and there is no danger to defend. So over the years, these people have also strengthened the defense of the border passes bordering Datang, which is why these people dare to argue with Li Er.

Wang Xuance encountered a little trouble not because he couldn't capture these places, but because he thought that they would encounter such a number of cities blocking the road after advancing a while, so the speed was slower than expected. Those cities blocking the road are really nothing to the Tang army.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want his soldiers to sacrifice needlessly in these places attacking the cities, Wang Xuance felt that he could capture these cities with only two charges. Although there are many people on Lin Yi's side who have learned some methods of defending the city from the people of the Central Plains, they are still too far behind their teachers.

"We don't need to charge these cities and let people cover the demolition team while the others wait." Wang Xuance didn't know a lot about the usefulness of gunpowder, and he also knew that under the various improvements presided over by Li Hao over the years, the power of this thing was more powerful than when he was in Tibet before, so it was good for this kind of small city to go directly to the demolition team.

As long as there is a bang, the walls of those small cities will collapse immediately, and then those who defend the city will directly send a large army to rush up and kill before they can react. Of course, it was the surrendering army on Lin Yi's side that rushed to the front, as well as those pro-Tang leading the way.

As long as the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty maintain order, then they will capture all kinds of prisoners and collect their property, and the bold businessmen who followed them will organize people to conduct various transactions with the Tang army, and then return to the Tang Dynasty along the cement road along this side with full harvest.

This model is now very smooth for the merchants of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Army will also send some soldiers to protect their safety, as long as they are in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, they don't have to worry about anything.

Comparatively speaking, the merchants on this side of the sea are more smooth. Now the entire sea area of the South China Sea is the inland sea of Datang, except for the need to pay attention to accidents and storms at sea. For the merchants of the Tang Dynasty, they only had to hurry, and there was not even a shadow of an enemy in these places.

Even if there are occasional boats, those small sampans facing the big ships of the Tang Dynasty are simply a contrast between ants and elephants. In the face of this kind of ship, as long as they dared to approach, Datang's ships would directly collide with it.

"Lang Jun, aren't we going to directly attack the capital of Linyi?" After Li Hao landed ashore, he did not directly march into the capital of Linyi. Although with the addition of the strength of this stronghold, the number of troops he can use now has become tens of thousands.

"No, we can completely seal off the coastline here now, which can put great pressure on the Linyi Dynasty. It can also allow them to concentrate all their troops on the side of the royal city, and then they can break it in one fell swoop. ”

Li Hao smiled after hearing this, in fact, not only Chen Sanniang would be curious, the generals around Li Hao all thought like this. However, because Li Hao's prestige is high enough, although these people are confused, no one thinks that Li Hao dare not fight.

Li Hao naturally wouldn't dare to attack the royal capital of Linyi, as long as he put two guns on the ship towards the royal city of Linyi, Li Hao felt that the royal city here would be broken in less than a day.

But this kind of result is not the result that Li Hao wants, and he is waiting for it now. Waiting for Wang Xuance's army to come over, he was also waiting for Lin Yi to concentrate all the troops he had gathered in the royal capital.

At that time, after the Tang army broke the army on this side in one fell swoop, all that remained was to capture all kinds of prisoners. If the other armies have not yet concentrated on the capital, the royal capital will be broken, and Lin Yi's side will enter the pursuit of those remnants of the army and generals everywhere in the future, and Li Hao naturally does not want to see this result.

He doesn't attack the capital now, but he just lets all the people on Lin Yi's side gather together, and then settle the battle together. All the high-level officials on Linyi's side are all in Li Hao's cleanup, and the more prestigious the officials, the more they must be cleaned up.

Of course, Li Hao will also spread some smoke screens on the side, saying that there is a problem with the supply of the army here, so there is no way to attack. Then there were also shadows on the Linyi side, instigating the king of Linyi to gather all the troops and fight to the death.

After arranging these, Li Hao began to sort out the food here. This is one of Li Hao's hobbies, and when he goes to different places, he always gets local ingredients to cook various foods, but the taste is still very good.

Seeing that Li Hao was ready to let people find ingredients to eat, not only Chen Sanniang was looking forward to it, but Li Hao's students were also the same. They even joined in the collection of ingredients.

Li Hao of later generations has traveled here, he has been to Hanoi, he has been to Pattaya, and he knows a little bit about some of the food here. But if he is asked to do it directly, Li Hao will not be able to make the flavor of the food here. But he has a system, and he can directly exchange some local delicacies from the system.

The dishes here, Li Hao knows Yue cuisine and Thai cuisine. Because according to the Lin Yi on the map, this country actually includes the two countries of the later generations, and there are other countries mixed together.

In addition to the extensive use of tropical fruits and vegetables, the ingredients of the dishes here tend to be natural and refreshing, and the taste is heavier and more sour and sweet. It is characterized by being light and non-greasy, with a high proportion of vegetables added, and the principle of preserving the original flavor of the vegetables, which is highly respected by the healthy eating school in later generations.

For example, raw beef pho, Vietnamese spring rolls, duck eggs, shredded pork with sour skin, and Vietnamese cane shrimp are all famous dishes. In addition, the drinks are also full of characteristics, such as frozen throat-moistening coconut green, brightly colored three-color ice and Zhenduo ice, etc., which Li Hao has basically tasted.

According to historical records, the people here can actually be the descendants of the ancient Yue people, and the complex and delicate humanities during the period have formed a unique scenery of food here. In addition, the climate here is hotter, so the dishes here are mainly light.

Then the history of this side has always been pro-Oriental, and then it was colonized by Gallic roosters, plus the surrounding environment. In later generations, the cuisine here is a combination of the food culture of the East, Thailand, Malaysia, Gallic and other countries, and the taste is quite unique.

Compared with other Southeast Asian cuisines, the taste of Yue cuisine is more refreshing and smooth; Compared with Chinese food, Yue cuisine has more exotic flavors; Compared to Western food, Vietnamese cuisine is better at using a variety of spices. In short, it is not in China, West is not in the West, and then there are some more local things.

Yue cuisine is the most distinctive delicacy in Indochina countries, because it is more refreshing and delicate than other cuisines, and because it is greatly influenced by the East, and even from the roots, it is actually from the East.

It pays attention to the harmony of yin and yang, and its dishes are delicate, sweet and sour with a little bit of spiciness. When cooking, we pay attention to the refreshing and original taste, and most of them are steamed, boiled, grilled, and cold. Deep-fried or grilled dishes will be served with fresh lettuce, mint, jin bu chang and other raw vegetables to get tired of the fire.

Therefore, the direct feeling of ordinary people to Yue cuisine is refreshing and non-greasy, not only with both color and flavor, but also with meticulous and exquisite craftsmanship, which is quite cultural. Compared with cattle, sheep, and pigs, fish and shrimp are their staple foods, and there are many kinds of vegetables and fruits.

Spices unique to the South Seas such as lemongrass, basil, mint, celery and fresh lime nuts are also used, as well as the famous fish sauce, which has spread from the East.

Due to the inheritance of the Oriental food culture of yin and yang harmony, the cooking of Yue cuisine is the most refreshing and original, mainly steaming, barbecue, baking, and cold dressing, and there are fewer people stir-fried in hot oil pots. Even some fried or barbecued dishes that are considered to be "hot" are often eaten with fresh lettuce, mint vegetables, nine-story tartar, cucumbers and other dishes that can be eaten raw to achieve the effect of "removing the oil and reducing the fire".

Its appearance is to absorb the style of French cuisine and exquisite workmanship, which is very attractive. It is precisely because of all this that Yue cuisine exudes an attractive style, although it is not rich, but it is long and profound. However, this is also the reason why Li Hao feels that the dishes here are not in the middle, and the west is not in the west.
