Xiao Han did not expect the Turkic man in front of him to understand his words.
Because these words are not so much spoken to this Turkic man as they are spoken to his own heart.
After gathering the sheep and getting a few large carts from the Turks, Xiao Han and others returned home with a full load.
However, on the way back, Liu Er turned back more than once and looked at the small tribe that suddenly became silent.
"Master Hou, how about I take people back now? Give them all..."
Finally, after turning a small road, Liu Er couldn't help but drove his horse to Xiao Han's side. While muttering in a low voice, he raised his palms and made a chopping gesture in the air.
"Why, do you feel bad about spending money? Are you going to get it back?" Xiao Han heard the noise and turned around to look at Liu Er in a funny way.
"That's not true..." Liu Er scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Those things were all collected by Su Zhi, they are not clean! Just throw them away! I am mainly afraid that they will leak the news and let Jie Li know that
The old boy ran away again!"
"Leak the news? Where did they go to leak the news?"
Xiao Han rolled his eyes at Liu Er, pointed to the surrounding roads covered with ice and snow, and said, "Do you think a small Turkic tribe in this ice and snow could possibly know where their khan has gone?"
"This..." Liu Er was stopped by Xiao Han's question. He hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "I think, just to be safe, we should kill them all! Anyway, let's kill them all."
There is no shortage of lives in the hands of brothers!"
"forget it!"
Xiao Han slowly shook his head, then looked back at the small tribe that was gradually being swallowed up by the darkness, and murmured in a low voice: "Actually, what Tang Jian said was right at the beginning. Killing too many people is not a good thing..."
————
The news that Xiao Hou had driven back hundreds of sheep from nowhere spread like a strong wind to the entire Western Expedition team in an instant!
And just when all the soldiers stretched their necks in envy and looked at Xiao Han's camp at the end of the team, a piece of news that surprised them even more came immediately!
"In order to let everyone have a good meal, Xiaohou decided to kill all the sheep. Everyone can get a share of mutton tonight!"
As soon as this good news came out, the entire Western Expedition team became excited on the spot! The cheers almost broke the tent and rushed into the sky!
After several days of rapid march, the soldiers in the team ate dry biscuits that were enough to be used as bricks every day! Their teeth were almost worn out. Now that they heard that meat was suddenly available, how could they not be excited?
?
Amidst the cheers, Xiao Han's camp quickly became busy.
Kill the sheep, skin them, and clean them!
Under Xiao Han's command, even the internal organs that few people had eaten before were kept and prepared to be processed and put into the pot together.
They had no choice but to get back only a few hundred sheep, but they had to feed thousands of people!
The key point is that these thousands of people are still strong men with three kilograms of meat and one bucket of rice! If they only eat meat, they will probably only be able to eat one meal at most, and they will have to continue to eat glutinous vegetables tomorrow! I want to eat two more meals
, these offal must also be added to it.
"Xiao Hou, can this thing be eaten?"
In front of a large pot set up, Su Dingfang was holding a fire stick and watching Xiao Han handle the sheep intestines with disgust on his face.
He used to feed things like internal organs and intestines to dogs. Not to mention eating them, he had never even smelled them!
"Can it be eaten? Humph, believe it or not, even if my Lord Marquis gives you a branch, you can chew it for a whole day?"
The fool couldn't stand anyone questioning Xiao Han, so before Su Dingfang could finish speaking, he jumped out first, spitting foam and star seeds that almost sprayed into the pot.
"Okay, okay, I believe it! Isn't it okay if I believe it?" Su Dingfang saw the angry face of Lunzi and quickly admitted his mistake in embarrassment! I just don't know whether he apologized because he was afraid that Xiao Han would fall out, or because he was afraid of Lunzi's verbal attack.
"Haha, don't think this thing is dirty, but if it is handled properly, it will be a delicacy in the world!" Xiao Han pulled the fool down with a smile, and then glanced at Su Dingfang, but the notebook in his hand did not stop at all.
Processing sheep intestines is a delicate job!
You need to use a chopstick to penetrate the intestines and push out all the dirt inside bit by bit.
Of course, if conditions permit, you can also rub it one by one with bean flour to remove the remaining oil and dirt.
However, for Xiao Han, who loves to eat all kinds of intestines, he always feels that intestines are something that cannot be processed too cleanly!
Just like the fat cook did in the past, he used white alkali to wash the pig intestines until they were white and tender. When he ate them again, they tasted like chewing wax, without the original fresh, crispy taste.
A plate of sheep intestines was twisted and twisted, and finally processed cleanly.
Su Dingfang asked Su Dingfang to cut the intestines into small pieces with a knife and throw them into the pot. He watched the green soup gradually turn white, and a strong aroma of meat also rose up.
"Xiao Hou! There is already cooked mutton over there, can't you go and eat some first?"
Just when Xiao Han was struggling to stir the shovel in the pot, over there, Liu Er walked up to Xiao Han holding a large pile of mutton leg bones. His thick lips were slick with food, and the scattered minced meat fell onto his chest.
forward!
Even the lightning rod above his head became crooked due to his constant biting movements.
Xiao Han raised his head and glanced at him, knowing that what this guy was eating was the sheep that was cooked first. After such a long time, that sheep had already been cooked, so there was no need to eat it like the big pots in front of him.
Still have to wait.
"You guys eat first, I'll eat later." Xiao Han smiled at Liu Er, his smile was extremely sincere.
But Liu Er didn't know that Xiao Han was cursing in his heart at this moment: "Do you really think I'm stupid? Those were just dead sheep at the beginning, how can they be as good as these live sheep now?"
————
One sheep can be processed quickly, but hundreds of sheep can be processed slowly.
Even though Xiao Han notified the captains in the team and all the commanders came to help, they were still busy until late at night before they were done.
The mutton cooked in the big pot is very fresh, even if there is no seasoning, just a handful of coarse salt, it is still a rare delicious food!
Next to him, Xiao Han had no intention of wasting the sheepskins that had been peeled off.
After eating for a while, rub the blood away with snow and pick again.
The complete ones can be made into blankets to keep out the cold, and the incomplete ones can be cut into individual knee pads to prevent the wind and cold from pouring into the joints when riding a horse, making it difficult to even get off the horse.
Because the fuel was all on Xiao Han's side, hundreds of cauldrons obtained from various places were discharged all the way along the road. The farthest one was only twenty or thirty steps away from the Chinese army commander who refused Li Jing.
distance.
Therefore, when Su Dingfang saw the pot placed there, he became uneasy.
From time to time, he stood on tiptoes and glanced at the commander's tent. His eyes looked like those of a thief with a guilty conscience. How could he look like a warrior who had just galloped on the battlefield and conquered the three armies?
