Chapter 305 A Different Life!

If using the word "lost dog" to describe Yelu Dashi leading people to the west is insulting, then using the word "left home" to describe it is no problem, right?

What's more, this is not a normal departure from home, nor is it a normal migration.

This is a war.

A strange land, a strange environment, strange people, completely different living habits and languages ​​have become problems that both the indigenous people of this land and the newcomers need to face together, and it is also the simplest problem that both of them need to face.

Because the newcomers are not one person, nor a group of people, but an army, an army that has lost its homeland and can only fight for a chance of survival. Their arrival is definitely not to treat guests to dinner, nor is it to bring peace

with friendship.

To put it bluntly, they are here to grab territory and squeeze out the living space of the indigenous people.

In the words of later generations of Dongxing, it means I came here to plant a flag. What's wrong? In the words of the Northeast Vitality Group, it means I came here to put up a stick, and those who are dissatisfied stand up.

Then there's nothing more to say.

Come on, everyone is in the East Asian monster room anyway. You, a big brother in trouble, just want to plant a flag and stand up a stick wherever you find a place? Who are you looking down on!

After all, the Liao Kingdom was hanging out in the East Asian monster room and was the leader. Although it was down and out, and the Khitan cavalry led by Yelu Dashi could not defeat the Jin soldiers, the former leader wanted to

It couldn't be easier to deal with the three little turtles in the Western Region who want to seize territory and plant flags and sticks.

Then these little turtles were taught how to behave. The Gaochang Uighurs, the Western Kara Khanate, the Eastern Kara Khanate and the Khwarezm, all three small turtles, big and small, all surrendered one after another and said that they were blind.

Gouyan, I will still have to hang out with my big brother from now on.

Anyway, the process is just like this, the meaning is like this, and the situation is like this.

But ah, war is not about treating guests to dinner, nor is it about doing embroidery. People will die in war.

Although the Khitan cavalry led by Yelu Dashi were indeed bullying a group of little turtles with overwhelming force, they were not familiar with the terrain and environment, and they were not familiar with the language and people, so losses were inevitable.

Coupled with the climate environment and other messy problems here in the Western Region, life in Xiliao is not very easy, but on the surface it seems that there is a group of younger brothers who are enjoying the glory.

If it were specific to a small cavalry leader like Xiao Qi who was neither good nor bad, or if it was an ordinary soldier or an ordinary Khitan citizen, then this problem would become even more troublesome.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Qi frowned unconsciously when he heard Yelu asked how he was doing.

After being silent for a long time, Xiao Qi still sighed slightly and replied: "It's not bad. I can finally eat, and there is no shortage of meat. It's just this salt and tea..."

"Occasionally?"

After Queen Yelv asked, she didn't wait for Xiao Qi's answer, so she stood up directly. She walked to a large car and searched for it for a long time before turning back and throwing several oil paper parcels directly to Xiao Qi.

"Salt?"

Just pulled open a small corner slightly? After seeing clearly what was inside, Xiao Qi couldn't help but stared at Yelu Hou in surprise and asked: "Are you getting promoted or getting rich? Such fine salt? I'm afraid it will be better than Qing."

Wouldn’t salt be better?”

"This stuff is the ordinary salt eaten by the army of the Song Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, it cost only five cents per catty. How many packages are you holding in your hand? It's full of salt, but it's still less than the usual amount."

Yeluhou said casually, and then couldn't help complaining: "That Sha Diao cook always adds too much salt? Does it make the vegetables so salty? It's impossible to eat them. The Sha Diao cook also brings all the salt.

of.

There are also vegetables. If you are in Bianjing City, you can say that you don’t have to worry about vegetables even when you get to Xijin Prefecture. But the same cannot be said for the Gansu Chief Envoy. The matter of growing vegetables in winter has not been fully promoted? We have not been able to do it either.

How much can I bring? I can’t give it to you anymore.”

Xiao Qi now has the urge to beat Queen Yelu to death.

Back then we peed in mud together, back then we kicked through the widow's door together, back then we peeped at the little lady taking a bath, back then we joined the army together.

But what about now?

One of them can barely eat a full meal, not to mention salt and vegetables. But the other one thinks that the cook puts too much salt in cooking and that there are too few vegetables that can be eaten in winter. Just this thing he threw over casually.

A few oil-paper parcels? Inside were the fine salt and tea leaves that I wanted so much but couldn't afford.

Xiao Qi, who had grown up together and was very familiar with each other, did not suspect that Empress Yelu was deliberately deceiving.

"Otherwise, you might as well send us all the way to Ketun City."

Just when Xiao Qi was thinking about what kind of excuse he should find to beat up Yelvhou, the pretender, and get more good things from him, Yelvhou suggested: "Save money along the way.

A little? The vegetables are probably enough for us to eat. But really not? There are also bean sprouts soaked in the car that can be used as vegetables."

Then Xiao Qi became even more confused - eating bean sprouts is not a rare thing anymore?

Really? Bean sprouts are indeed not that rare, but it’s winter now, bastard! Winter! If you want to eat some vegetables on a snowy day, even if you just want to eat some bean sprouts, just preparing the warm water for soaking the bean sprouts is extremely difficult.

A difficult thing, right?

But now, listening to what this pretender Yelu said, it seems that soaking bean sprouts in winter is very easy?

Also, how many vegetables did Empress Yelu, the pretender, bring? Judging from the size of their group, there must be nearly a thousand people. Although there are only a hundred people here, even if there are only one hundred more people, the vegetables needed

That’s a huge amount, right?

What's more, it's still winter! Winter!

Can we eat vegetables in winter?

Looking at Xiao Qi's confused look, Empress Yelv continued: "It's a pity, after all, we were on an envoy this time, and now we are here again. If we are in Bianjing City now, we can go there in the heavy snow

When the weather is stormy, eat a flat meal stuffed with pork and leek or pork and celery, add a pot of old wine, dip it in some garlic oil, and chop a few garlic sprouts, it will be very beautiful!"

Xiao Qi continued to be confused. After a long while, Xiao Qi asked: "What kind of life did you live in the Song Dynasty?"

"Don't mention it! Just one word, bitter!"

Queen Yelu slapped her thigh fiercely and said: "When I get up at Yinshi, I only have one-third and a quarter of an hour to dress, wash and fold quilts, and two-quarters of an hour to eat breakfast, and then there is training! In addition to eating and resting

Time means training until night!

As for what we ate, it was also very simple. Each meal consisted of four dishes and one soup, one of which was an all-meat dish, either chicken, fish, or pork knuckle. The two dishes were so-called half-vegetarian and half-vegetarian.

You won't see a few green vegetables at all in the dish, only a completely vegetarian dish will contain green vegetables.
