The fire raged, and thousands of corpses were burned to ashes.

A few hours ago, they were still a living being, and even during the lunch break today, their comrades laughed with each other, talked about each other's ideals, and talked freely about their hopes for the future.

After a few hours, I didn't want to live alive, but the dead ones were really far away from everyone.

Fang Yun personally presided over the memorial ceremony, although it was very simple, the entire ceremony soldiers maintained absolute discipline. Because this is not the time to play and play, this is a farewell to the deceased comrades......

"The horses on the battlefield have been counted, and there are fifty thousand full-grown horses, but more than forty-seven thousand are steeds, bad horses, and young horses. Among the last 3,000 horses, there are more than 1,700 war horses that are about to retire from old age, and 1,200 have not yet been trained to become qualified war horses. Xie Yuan found Fang Yun after the memorial ceremony and told him the results of the count.

Seeing this result, Fang Yun even wondered if he had heard it wrong.

There are only 100 qualified war horses in the huge horse farm, what kind of joke is this?!

"Reporting to the owner, the books and records of the horse farm have been reviewed, and there are a lot of problems. According to records, the number of horses in active service should be 30,000, but the actual number of horses is much less than that. At the same time, according to the records, there should be 60,000 horses on the battlefield, but after the actual count, there are only 50,000 horses...... "Yu Xing also stepped forward to report.

"Report to the lord, the officials of the horse farm have finished the interrogation, and it is confirmed that Yuan Valve in the process of running the horse farm is shoddy, and the best war horses are privately sold to local families and frontier generals to obtain huge profits, and even forge court documents to facilitate the passage in the process of transportation. Yuan valve has been operating a horse farm for nearly 100 years, and the annual profits they get here have almost reached more than 10%, or even about 20% of the income of the whole family! Chen Tao also reported the interrogation process.

Hearing these reports, Fang Yun was really a little angry, these families relied on their own court people, and they really didn't take the court in their eyes, let alone the interests of the Chinese nation! They never think about the future of the country or the nation, they will give priority to the interests of their own family, and only when the family is full will a little leftovers flow to the court.

As for the people, what is that?

If the family really cares about the world and the people, how can the Yellow Turban Uprising be able to make such a big fuss?!

This is just a horse farm of the Han Dynasty, and Yuan Valve can be so presumptuous, what about other horse farms, other states and counties, and government agencies controlled by the protégés of those family gates? Fang Yun suddenly felt that it was so cold...... Chilling!

Suddenly, it seemed to be understood that the Liu family, the Han Dynasty, was actually quite wronged. The younger brother below is disobedient, and will only be pinned on the system of the Han Dynasty, constantly sucking blood to feed himself, and in the end, all the black cauldrons are thrown to the court to bear.

As a result, the Yellow Turbans rebelled, and the target of defeat was still the Great Han, but the culprits of them were at large, and even started a private business with the Yellow Turban Army, continuing to dig the corners of the Great Han. In the end, even if the Han Dynasty is overthrown, their families can still continue to survive forever, and even they don't care who is the emperor at all, because they will all become stupid X who will be used to carry the black pot.

What a family, what a gate valve, a hundred years of dynasties, a thousand years of family, very good!

At this time, it seems that I understand why I want to play the imperial examination in the later period, and taking scholars or something is just fooling those poor families and the people. The real purpose is nothing more than to break through the family's monopoly on talents.

This is a struggle of the royal families of various dynasties after the Sui and Tang dynasties, but it is a pity that only the founding emperor is often cleared, and the emperors after the second generation cannot understand the helplessness of their grandfather.

"Is there a horse trainer among the captives?" Fang Yun couldn't care so much, he was just a small Yellow Turban Army lieutenant general at the moment, so he chose to take care of the current situation first.

"These herdsmen have raised horses for Yuan for decades, and they are very familiar with raising horses and taming horses." Xie Yuan replied.

"Those who have been eliminated and are not too old are incorporated into the cavalry, and they are specially responsible for raising horses and training horses. At the same time, they were also given a task, which was to train the 1,200 war horses that had not yet been trained as soon as possible! Fang Yun thought about it and ordered.

"Whoa!" Xie Yuan received the order and immediately went down to make arrangements.

"It's getting late, everyone camps on the spot for one night, rests for one night after arriving in Shangcai tomorrow, and continues to go north to Dingying the day after tomorrow!" Fang Yun looked at the sky and made a plan for the march in the next two days.

"Whoa!" The surrounding officers received the order and went down one after another to make arrangements.

The engineer battalion was instructed to immediately set up the tents, and the fireheads and baggage troops began to prepare food for tonight. According to Fang Yun's order, more than 500 old horses will be slaughtered and eaten tonight, and if they can't finish eating, they will be smoked and used as dry food!

It was not easy for the soldiers to eat meat, and Fang Yun said that he could eat a full meal tonight, and suddenly the morale of the soldiers who had fallen because of the loss of his comrades rose rapidly. In the final analysis, the soldiers eat a severed head meal as soldiers, and the hope for the future is one, but what is really worth paying attention to is not to eat a real full meal?

When night fell, Fang Yun and the others gathered around the bonfire, eating a rich dinner, and drinking the freshly stewed horse bone soup, only feeling that if there were more days like this, it would really be a death without regrets. Horse meat is not very tasty, and it is not very fatty, but for soldiers who have hardly eaten meat, it is a real delicacy!

After the meal, according to Fang Yun's instructions, the military band began to play songs, and the soldiers sang loudly around the bonfire, and the night was very fulfilling......

On the other hand, after learning the process of making pasta, these chefs were immediately sent to Luoyang by Yuan Yi and handed over to Yuan Feng, who was the servant at the time. Yuan Feng made some steamed buns through secret channels and sent them to the palace and dedicated them to Liu Hong today.

These days, Liu Hong is also having trouble sleeping because of the yellow scarf. Fortunately, Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun have already begun to gather their men and horses to start the expedition, and it has always been a short time to start contact with the Yellow Turban Army, and quickly expand the results of the battle, and finally evaluate those damned untouchables!

"Hmph, the big man treats them well, and they don't think about retribution, but they dare to rebel!" Liu Hong was uncomfortable, so he naturally went naked. There was a pastime in the swimming pool, and then complained about the sentence that I don't know how many times I said.

"Your Majesty, the servant Yuan Feng offered a thing called 'buns', the slave has already tried it, it tastes delicious and there is no problem, I don't know if Your Majesty wants to taste it?" Zhang Rang, as the ten permanent attendants, often stood on the side, but at this moment, he stepped forward to ask.

"Oh, his old fellow actually brought food to the widow? Is it really that delicious? Liu Hong was interested.

"The taste is really good, it is rare that the person who sent the thing also said that this was invented by the chef of the Yuan family, and it is a good thing that has been improved in the pasta, not just a bun, if His Majesty likes it, there will be more good things to offer in the future." Zhang Rang accepted Yuan Feng's filial piety, and he also helped to say a few words.

"Okay, try it for the widow!" Liu Hong was also interested.

Pasta has existed since then, but when it is not fermented, it is hard and unpalatable, and it is not much better than corn. Don't look at Liu Hong as the emperor, but in the Han Dynasty, where ingredients are scarce and production technology is scarce, even he can't eat anything really good.

Zhang Rang saw that Liu Hong was interested, so he brought the buns over. There were twelve steamed buns in a cage, and each of them was bitten by Zhang Rang.

Aesthetics are not considered natural, and they are even cold. But this is also something that cannot be helped, the former emperor Liu Zhang ate a bowl of noodles (known as soup cakes in the Han Dynasty) given by Liang Yi and died of poisoning. So now, even if it is a meal made by the imperial kitchen, there will be a special drug tester before Liu Hong can eat it, let alone the food sent by people outside.

Picking up the steamed bun that had cooled down, Liu Hong took a bite of it.

The first feeling is that the dough is quite soft, at least not as soft as those unleavened doughs. The most important thing is that this bun actually wraps meat and vegetables in it, the most rare thing is that the match is very reasonable, fragrant and tender but not greasy, obviously taking care of his habit of only being able to eat cold rice, and the sauce is also enough, the taste is fragrant but very delicious!

Liu Hong's eyes lit up, and he finished eating a bun in a few bites. These buns are also cleverly made, which is enough for about four or five people per person, small and exquisite, but unsatisfying.

So much so that Liu Hong unconsciously ate a whole cage of steamed buns, but he still felt a little insufficient.

"This Yuan Taifu is also interesting, how do you say he made this bread so soft?" Liu Zhi retracted his hand into the cage and asked curiously.

"I don't know this, but if Your Majesty likes it, why don't you call his chef over and teach this craft to the imperial chef?" Zhang Rang also took the opportunity to mention it.

"It's good! By the way, does he have a nephew named Yuan Shao? Liu Hong asked casually.

"Yuan Shao was originally his concubine, and later passed on to his second brother Yuan Cheng." Zhang Rang did his homework.

"Well, it seems like that...... He's also in the forces of this crusade against the Yellow Turbans? Liu Hong asked again.

"But it's under the command of Huangfu Song!" Zhang Rang returned.

"Prepare an edict, seal Yuan Feng as the Marquis of Guannei, and allocate another 1,000 war horses and 500 rhubarb crossbows to Yuan Shao! By the way, remember to ask Yuan Feng to hand over the money from Guan Neihou! Liu Hong thought about it and instructed Zhang Rang.

"Yui!" Zhang Rang received the order and retired and prepared to go.

"Mother, you said that since this flour can make such delicious things, shouldn't it benefit the people of the world?" Liu Hong turned his head and asked Zhao Zhong, another eunuch who was accompanying him.

"Your Majesty has the dawn of the world in his heart, but those untouchables really don't know how to lift ......," Zhao Zhong replied with a bit of crying.

"Alas, if a prospective child bears his parents, how can any parent dislike his or her children? Spread the edict and expand the cultivation of wheat in the future! Wait for the process of making it later, and then spread this method to the people, so that the people can eat this good thing! Liu Hong sighed.

"Your Majesty is merciful!" Zhao Zhongzhong returned sincerely, knowing in his heart that this was just an excuse for Liu Hong to eat pasta.
