Chapter 36 Delicious
?;
In the Hulin Army camp, Yuwen Envoy, who had just been with pigs, is now with horses. He also smiled as he watched the horses in the stable eating the forage in the trough happily.?`
War horses are common in the north, but they are different in the Yangtze River Basin, which does not have excellent horse-producing land. Yuwen Wen used all his skills to accumulate for a long time, and the capture of this battle against Chen at least saved nearly a thousand war horses, and he barely gathered up three cavalrymen.
In other words, the quantity looks good, but many war horses have just passed the quality, but for Yuwen Wen, he has done his best. Everyone wants war horses and won’t think that there is too much monks and less porridge. But he has used all means to grab horses to have this little wealth.
Good steel should be used on the blade. In order to maximize the power of the cavalry, he promoted Shi Wansui, who performed well in the battle against Chen, to be the cavalry commander of the three buildings.
Shi Wansui led the cavalry to defeat the opponent's central army in one fell swoop, and later led the soldiers to pretend to be Chen's army and suddenly attacked Wuchang, so it was convincing to advance to the military achievements.
At the beginning, Yuwen Wen Jianjun held the few cavalry firmly in his hands and was led by his confidant Yuwen Shiwu. Now that the scale has increased, he is not a nepotist. Therefore, he handed over the cavalry with the purpose of "doing people without using them, and using them without doubting them". In addition, Yuwen Shiwu is still too young, so Yuwen Wen decided to let him follow Shi Wansui to learn how to use cavalry.?`
"Master Shi Jun, after the Santaihe water conservancy renovation is completed, you can choose a good place to make the horse farm and don't let these horses hold it in your arms." Yuwen Wen said to Shi Wansui on the side. The new military leader is now leading people to cook war horses, and the problem with the horse farm is also his headache.
"Empress, I have surveyed many places and have initially selected two places to level the land if the river embankment is repaired and not flooded." Shi Wansui replied. These war horses are hard to come by, so he personally urged his subordinates to take good care of them. According to the plan, it is also a headache to raise horses in the future.
Even if you usually need to run more, but where does this place in Bazhou come from? Only a vast grassland without snails can be chosen to circle it in a cheap way. As the number of horses increases, it is imperative to expand the horse farm.
Yuwen Wen is not good at raising horses, but someone can do it. He is responsible for logistics support. The consumption of raising a war horse is as high as three or four soldiers. So the consumption of nearly a thousand war horses and those who pull baggage horses also makes Yuwen Wen feel very troubled.
Fortunately, the people and the area of Xiyang County is full of weeds. From time to time, soldiers are mobilized to mow the grass as a way to let the air. Everyone is happy. If they are lucky enough to catch rabbits, pheasants and other wild game, it will be more fun. Yuwen Wen racked his brains to maintain the Hulin Army.
The sound of drums in the military camp seemed to be urging something. Everyone in front of the stable was excited when they heard the sound. Yuwen Wen hurriedly came from the pig farm not only to "be with the horse", but also to do something equally important.?

......
The soldiers gathered in murderous spirits at the school ground, with pairs of tiger eyes staring at the people in the field. Today is a critical day and the victory or defeat is now!
The previous battles of the southward battles of the Hulin Army were "fear", attacking Fanshan Shou, ambushing Yongxing, Xiakou and Yangxin reinforcements, and then performing a play to capture Wuchang City. There was also a passionate "defending the Five Continents Shou" and an amazing "land boat". After a series of victories, everyone was rewarded with ruthless rewards.
However, all this is a passing cloud. There are still important things to do in front of you because today’s competition will be held!
The competition is a violent collision between the pagodas. If it is won, then there will be 300 men in the pagodas. The winning prizes are so abundant that they make people toss and turn, so the cheering soldiers almost shouted hoarsely.
The competition method is very simple: relay race, martial arts competition and tug of war. Relay race, each building draws lots and selects seven figures for eleven people to run relay races, and advances in the four-win system of seven games.
In the competition, each building draws lots and chooses seven figures. Against the soldiers of both sides, they also draw lots and wear protective gear to play one-on-one single-handed battles, using weapons like bamboo swords and spears (headless). The two are determined by six wins in the eleven battles, while the two are promoted in the seven-game four-win system.
Finally, there is a tug of war. Each building selects fourteen figures and uses each two figures as a group of seven groups. The two sides arrange their own number one to seven to advance in the order of seven games and four wins.
The three major events will be decided to win and have big prizes and will be on a day off for the whole building. If you win two events, you will be on two days off for the holiday. If you win all three events, you will be on three days off for the holiday. But this is not the focus, the focus is on other benefits.
There were several new kitchen utensils on the open space next to the schoolyard - large iron pots. The chefs were busy surrounding the more than ten large pots. There were various ingredients on the chopping board next to them, and the prepared dishes were emitting an attractive fragrance to the schoolyard, making the soldiers restless.
The pot is a stir-frying pan, an unheard of cast iron stir-frying pan; the shovel is a stir-frying pan, a stir-frying pan, a stir-frying pan that makes people enjoy endless delicious food.
The pot and shovel made of fragrant dishes were made with 5,000 soldiers from the Hulin Army.
The elbow and Dongpo pork made by Hulin Junfu are the best delicacies in the world. This is the first time that the soldiers know that pig trotters and pork can be cooked so delicious. The taste makes people feel fragrant after eating it.
The sauce elbow is crisp and tender, not greasy, not stuffed with teeth, and has a fragrant taste; the Dongpo pork has a thin skin and tender flesh, a bright red color, a mellow and rich juice, crispy but not broken, and fat but not greasy.
Although I don’t know what Dongpo pork means, these two dishes were immediately praised as soon as they were launched. Somehow, everyone had a share and everyone could eat it a few times and it became a prize. Today’s competition can make every soldier in the Yousheng Banner eat enough.
The next time you can try something fresh, as for the others, you can only watch it. Although the other dishes are good, there are no these two things that make people salivate: the elbows piled up with a few pots can be divided into at least two per person, so what about Dongpo pork, not to mention one person at least six yuan.
For this competition, the chefs prepared several days ago this morning, the howlings echoed in the sky of the military camp when they killed pigs. The sound made everyone think of the delicious sauce elbow and Dongpo pork. Now it's time to have a life-long life!
Yuwen Wen, who had just rushed from the next pig farm, changed into military uniforms and squeezed into the soldiers with the generals to cheer him on. Now that he has burned bags and is about to go bankrupt, Yuwen Envoy continued to burn money to boost the morale of the army based on the principle of "no more debt" and no worries".
Iron pot, there are many different opinions about the specific period of its appearance, but it was popularized on a large scale after the Song Dynasty. It was not until the Northern Song Dynasty that the saying "frying" appeared, and it was a non-mainstream recipe at the beginning. Yuwen Wen tried his best to make a qualified cast iron pot to add a lot of effort to the expansion of the "foodie empire".
But it is not enough to have an iron pot alone. Soy sauce that is common in later generations is not available yet, or it is just the original form: the "meal" used by the Emperor Zhou of Zhou a thousand years ago was the oil that chopped the meat into a paste and fermented. At this time, the ancestor of soy sauce made of beans should be the soy sauce used by the world and soy sauce.
The name of soy sauce in history appeared in the Song Dynasty and the brewing process was perfected in the Southern Song Dynasty. Now Yuwen has made it appear hundreds of years in advance. Although the brewing process still needs to be improved, it is already a cross-age thing.
With soy sauce, you can make elbows and Dongpo pork. As long as you have these two delicious foods and promotion of iron pots and soy sauce, the demand for pork will naturally increase sharply and the pork method will become richer.
