"Kill pigs?" Xu Chu looked puzzled.

Long Xiang nodded: "Yes, I want to use pork to retreat the enemy." ”

"What do you mean?" Xu Chu was even more confused.

Long Xiang smiled slightly: "You go to arrange it, clean it and send half a fan to the city tower, and I will invite everyone to eat roast pork later." ”

"That's good, I'll do it right away."

Xu Chu hugged his fists and strode away, Long Xiang has invented noodles, glutinous rice balls and other ways to eat in recent years, and he can be regarded as a food expert in Hefei.

In recent years, the number of times he has eaten meat is not much, and it is basically cooked with soup, Xu Chu has not eaten roast pork so far, so he is quite looking forward to the new way of eating.

Xu Chu had just left with his front foot, and Long Xiang followed him downstairs.

He was going to the foundry to find a craftsman, and first he had a metal rack for the barbecue come out, and he had the wood for the fire ready.

It took two hours to prepare, and the time came just at noon.

Xu Chu and a few tiger guards shared the meat together, and according to Long Xiang's requirements and demonstrations, they cut the meat into small pieces suitable for barbecue, smeared some salt for a simple flavor, and then skewered them with bamboo skewers for later use.

It happened to be a cloudy day, and although the climate was hot and humid, there was no direct sunlight, otherwise Long Xiang would not have burned the fire and 'self-harmed'.

Long Xiang observed through the clairvoyant mirror in the morning and found that the soldiers in Cao's camp only had a bowl of gruel, so he came up with this food method to retreat from the enemy.

The fire and smoke on the city tower caused the Cao Ying sentry not far away.

Cao Xiu received the information and rushed into the big tent, and found that Cao Cao and a few strategists were taking a nap.

Cao Cao slept lightly and woke up first, and Guo Jia and others were also woken up by Cao Xiu one after another.

After listening to Cao Xiu's report, Cao Cao stood up with a happy face, looked at everyone and quipped: "Zihe persuaded me to withdraw my troops in the morning, didn't this opportunity come?" At this time, it is the height of summer, and if the fire in Hefei is not handled well, it is our chance to break the city. ”

Cao Xiu reminded in a low voice: "I feel that the fire is not too big"

"It is impossible to see clearly from a distance, let Zhang Wenyuan take people to a close place to verify, and order all battalions to prepare for battle, and not let go of the opportunity when there is an opportunity." Cao Cao frowned and shook his head.

"Yui."

Seeing Cao Xiu striding out of the big tent, Cao Cao stroked his beard and said to himself:

"Hmph, God has always favored Cao, Long Xiang is against me, how can there be good fruit to eat? He deserved"

Zhang Liao was ordered to go to Hefei to reconnoitre, and then stationed his horse by the moat to raise his head.

I saw more than a dozen strong men in the city, talking and laughing together.

Long Xiang was waiting for Zhang Liao, he pushed aside the crowd and came to the front, he was also well-dressed, but his body was slightly narrower than Xu Chu next to him.

"General Zhang, here you go again?"

Hearing Long Xiang's 'warm greeting', Zhang Liao pointed at him with a curious look and asked, "General Long, why is this, are you fighting fires?" I saw a fire in the camp, so I rushed to see if I didn't worry. ”

"General Zhang is so enthusiastic?"

Long Xiang asked meaningfully: "I don't know if you are worried about Hefei or someone Long?" ”

Zhang Liao responded embarrassedly: "I miss General Long." ”

Long Xiang glanced at Xu Chu, and then gave Zhang Liao a thumbs up: "Just with General Zhang's words, you will be indispensable for a while." ”

"Meat? What meat? Zhang Liao heard it in a fog.

Long Xiang walked back to the rear, held a string of meat in his hand, and explained with a smile: "We are roasting pork, and we can smell the aroma of meat later, the fire and smoke you see are actually deliberately born by us, and there is no scorching sun today, which is worth celebrating." ”

Zhang Liao was dumbfounded, and after a while he pointed at Long Xiang and asked:

"Yesterday you said there was no food in the city, but today you are barbecuing meat in the city."

Long Xiang scratched his head and asked innocently: "Grain is grain, meat is meat, there is meat in the city but there is no food, am I not wrong?" We also suffer from eating only meat every day."

This may belong to the early Versailles, a hundred years before Sima Zhen of 'Why not eat minced meat'.

Zhang Liao almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood, and he couldn't find a loophole in the key Long Xiang's answer, and he couldn't even find a reason to refute it.

At that moment, Zhang Liao really regretted it.

Why did you see this person in Xuzhou? Otherwise, the Lord would not have sent me to suffer.

said that he couldn't get into Hefei, and when Zhang Liao was thinking about how to answer, a breeze suddenly drifted by with the smell of meat.

I couldn't help but lick my tongue, remembering that the bowl of gruel in the morning was really not hungry.

When Zhang Liao came back to his senses, he found that Long Xiang and Xu Chu were sitting opposite each other, and the high-legged table was placed close to the city wall, which could be seen by the people under the city.

After a while, the first batch of meat was roasted.

The two tiger guards brought the barbecue to the table, and Long Xiang instructed them to roast it while eating.

Xu Chu couldn't wait to take a bite, and the corners of his mouth were oily.

Long Xiang also bites, the condiments on the meat are not as rich as in later generations, but the ingredients are obviously greener and natural, and the juice in the mouth is rich when chewed, so that the stomach is greatly satisfied.

"Zhongkang, how is this barbecue?"

"Huh? It's so fragrant. ”

Xu Chu is strong and eats a lot of food, and Long Xiang deliberately used the thick cutting method today, which can barely meet the speed of the tiger idiot.

Long Xiang nodded with satisfaction: "Give me a full bottle of wine, the weather is good today, and I should eat meat and drink a lot." ”

"Good."

Xu Chu responded and chewed in his mouth.

Long Xiang in the city ate meat and drank wine, and Zhang Liaogan in the city looked drooling, and said in his heart Long Yunqi, are you so polite? Forgot what you just said?

"General. The situation has been clarified, or let's go."

After being reminded by his own soldiers, Zhang Liao came to his senses, and he looked at the people in the city viciously.

If you continue to do this, once the city of Hefei is broken, the lord will have to beat your and urine.

"Let's go."

Zhang Liao snorted softly and ordered his entourage to turn around and leave, but was unexpectedly stopped by Long Xiang.

"General Zhang, don't go."

Zhang Liao looked back and shouted angrily: "Long Yunqi, what else do you want to do?" ”

"General Zhang, don't be angry, I baked something good for you, but you have to bake it for a little longer, it's not delicious if it's not cooked." After Long Xiang finished explaining, he turned his head and asked, "Is that pig's trotter roasted?" ”

"It's almost there."

Long Xiang got the answer and beckoned, "General Zhang, wait a little longer." ”

Zhang Liao suddenly fell into a tangle, did he wait or not?

Continue to wait, for fear of being teased by Long Xiang;

No, the barbecue tastes too tempting.

"It's baked, General Zhang takes it."

As soon as Long Xiang's words fell, he saw Xu Chu holding an object in his hand and throwing it down, and finally fell to the ground near Zhang Liao.

The guard picked up something wrapped in lotus leaves and handed it to Zhang Liao, and when he opened it, he saw that it was indeed a freshly roasted pig's trotter.

Zhang Liao held the hot pig's trotters, thinking that there was only such a short section, and the dozens of relatives and guards who came with him were not enough at all.

It's even more inappropriate to eat alone, and I said Long Xiang, you have a problem for me?

After thinking about it, Zhang Liao felt that it was not suitable for anyone to eat, so he still planned to dedicate it to Cao Cao.

"Thank you General Long for the meat, I'm leaving."

Seeing Zhang Liao disappear, Xu Chu asked with a shiny face: "That hoof looks very big, but in fact it is full of bones, Zhang Liao is just afraid that it will not be enjoyable."

Long Xiang smiled mysteriously: "Haha, that's what I want." ”
