In the past two months, the wind has been calm in front of Jinyang Pass, and only a few small-scale battles have erupted.

Yun Chen passed on some news to Wanyan Aguda some time ago, and the Jin soldiers also attacked from time to time, grabbing the grain transport team in Beiliang and the like.

Beiliang will also send troops to fight back. When both sides encounter it, it will be a melee, but there is no big deal.

Just when the wind is calm, the New Year of Jingtai's five-year anniversary came unexpectedly.

Although facing war and the battle in Liaodong has not yet ended, Chen Yue still transported a lot of supplies from Shunzhou and Tanzhou, and was preparing to improve the food for the soldiers during the New Year. The soldiers in Beiliang have been on the battlefield for a whole year.

So, the Beiliang Army has eaten dumplings today!

A large pot was set up in Chen Yue's handsome tent. The firewood was burning very vigorously. The water in the pot kept churning, and the heat emitted dispelled the coldness of winter.

There were only four people in the tent: Chen Yue, Chu Yucheng, Xue Tian, ​​and Xue Meng. The first batch of veterans from the Shanzi Camp gathered together to celebrate the New Year today.

"We won't drink today. The enemy is ahead, and each person has a bowl of dumpling soup." Chen Yue smiled and poured the dumplings on the plate into the pot.

The face rolled up and down in the water, and the brothers who saw it were rubbing their hands impatiently.

"I really didn't expect that I could still eat dumplings with my hometown when I went out to fight." Xue Meng leaned over to the side of the pot and took a deep breath, and said intoxicatedly: "Two words, comfortable!"

"Hey, stay away from the pot, your saliva is almost dripping." Chu Yucheng twisted his waist and squeezed Xue Meng to the side.

"Hahaha."

The brothers burst into laughter.

Chen Yue stirred the dumplings in the pot and said, "Have you sent all the supplies to the brothers in each battalion?"

"Don't worry, Brother Yue." Xue Tian nodded from the side and replied: "Each person has half a pound of meat, one pound of vegetables, and enough dumplings. Today, there are brothers who are on the night patrol mission to drive away a pot of wine."

"Okay, it's a cold day, don't let your brothers freeze." Chen Yue reminded.

"Brother Yue, is that okay? You can eat it!" Xue Meng had already held the bowls and chopsticks in his hand and looked at the pot with his eyes.

"Come on, let me give it to you first, let's see if you're worried." Chen Yue put a spoonful of dumplings into Xue Meng's bowl, one by one, and filled Xue Meng's bowl in an instant.

"Brother Xie Yue! Haha!" Xue Meng laughed and picked up the dumplings. After dipping them in a red and black plate, the dumplings suddenly turned red.

Chu Yucheng frowned and looked at the plate full of balsamic vinegar and chili, and muttered: "You Liangzhou people are really good at eating spicy food, so you can't accept it."

"Sigh~"

In Chu Yucheng's astonished gaze, Xue Meng swallowed the dumpling half a fist-sized one mouthful.

"Bajibaji~"

Xue Meng chewed happily, her eyes slightly closed.

"Ah~ it's great!"

As soon as the Adam's apple was wriggling, Xue Meng finally swallowed the dumplings, his mouth full of oil.

Xue Meng's enjoyment made Xue Tian swallow one of them quickly, and he drank one by one.

"I can't stand you, you have such a heavy taste." Chu Yucheng slowly put a dumpling into his mouth without even dipping vinegar.

"Hey, Yucheng, what's the point of eating it like this?" Xue Meng took a dumpling carelessly and said to Chu Yucheng: "You try my sauce, it will definitely make you saliva!"

Chu Yucheng looked at the dumplings covered with peppers and shook his head: "No, don't harm me."

It turns out that Chu Yucheng was born in Yuezhou, and people there generally like sweets and basically cannot eat spicy food. However, the people in Northern Liang are just the opposite, just a bite of chili.

Even though he has been in Beiliang for so many years, Chu Yucheng still can't eat spicy food.

"Hey, the peppers are not spicy this time." Xue Meng said seriously: "It just happened to drive away the cold. In such a cold day, let's warm your body!"

"Really? Are you afraid you are teasing me?" Chu Yucheng looked at Xue Meng with suspicion.

"Of course it's true. The peppers produced in Liaodong are not as good as those produced in Beiliang. I guess you can eat them. Come on, try one." Xue Meng handed them to Chu Yucheng's mouth with a dumpling.

Chen Yue and Xue Tian also echoed, "Try it, it doesn't look like a big man if you don't eat spicy food at all, and this one is really only a little spicy."

Chu Yucheng hesitated for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, I believe you once. Come on!"

“Ah~”

Chu Yucheng grew up and Xue Meng stuffed the dumplings in.

Chu Yucheng's eyes widened and his face flushed after just chewing a bite.

Chen Yue, who had been standing aside, covered his mouth with lightning speed: "Swallow it!"

"Hahaha!"

...

After a while, Chu Yucheng's lips turned red, and he leaned against the chair without tears. He felt his whole body was full of fire and his forehead was covered with sweat.

This is not spicy, it is obviously to the extreme!

Chen Yue and the other two laughed so hard that they were both happy to be able to tease a white-clothed ghost.

"I'll fight with you!" Chu Yucheng stood up with his teeth and claws.

"Yucheng, don't be unaware of the good people's hearts. We are driving you away from the cold. If you really do something, you have to think about it." Chen Yue said with a cursed smile.

Xue Tian and Xue Meng also stood up with their necks twisted, and their bones were thunderous.

"What's wrong? Want to practice with us?" Xue Mengqi smiled.

Chu Yucheng looked at the burly Xue Meng, but finally gave up the idea of ​​picking three.

"Forget it, it's the New Year, let you go today." Chu Yucheng sat down with a grin.

"Hahaha! Chu Dupu really has a lot of masters!"

The four brothers laughed and sat around the big pot and started eating dumplings.

Xue Tian said while eating: "I heard that the war on Nanjiang Road has ended, and the soldiers entering Nanyue were completely wiped out. Is this really the case?"

Chu Yucheng nodded and said, "It's true. The court has added Shangguan Tailei to Marquis of Annan. This uncle has been in the limelight recently."

"This battle was a bit strange." Chen Yue said with a little question: "We had many enemies in the southern expedition, and the elite soldiers of Fuzhou were exhausted. Now Nanjiang Road can repel Nanyue by relying on the new recruits he has pulled up this year? Then Nanyue is too vulnerable, right?"

"Yes, I feel so too." Xue Tian nodded and said, "And that uncle doesn't look like a soldier."

After all, people like Beiliang had dealt with Shangguan Tailei at the beginning, so they still know how capable Shangguan Tailei is.

Chu Yucheng took a sip of dumpling soup and muttered: "I have read a military newspaper. It seems that the person who commanded the war in the southern Xinjiang Dao was a man named No. 5 Xinrou. Shangguan Tailei was just the nominal commander."

"The fifth heart is soft?" Chen Yue paused: "I haven't heard of it, who is it?"

"I don't know, there is no detailed introduction." Chu Yucheng spread his hands helplessly.

"If this person really led his troops to repel Nanyue, he should have some ability." Xue Tian said lightly.

Chen Yue narrowed his eyes and said softly: "As long as you can defeat foreign enemies, you are a capable person. If you have the chance, you must meet him."
