The soft dough and the oily mutton stuffing inside filled his mouth with the salty deliciousness. Gao Qiqian was stunned, and there was fat left from the corner of his mouth, and he didn't even notice.
The big pot rice buns in the military camp are so delicious. Even the time-honored buns in Xisi in the capital are not as good as this. This is really strange. This is 80,000 people, 400,000 buns. The quality can be guaranteed. It's okay.
So delicious.
In fact, Yang Fan has a cooking cart and a hand-operated dumpling and bun machine. Whether it is making dumplings, making buns, cutting noodles, or cutting steamed buns, it is very fast. There is also a hand-operated meat grinder for mincing meat fillings. Cooking
The soldiers got up in the middle of the night to cook, ensuring that the army would have a good breakfast in the morning.
These cooking carts were produced by Yang Fan's Xincheng Logistics Factory and sold to Chongzhen. During this expedition, no matter what environment they camped on along the way, they were guaranteed to have hot soup and hot food at every meal.
Seeing Gao Qiqian in a daze, Yang Fan said with a smile: "Eunuch Gao, are you choking? Drink some vegetable soup to relieve the pain." He handed him 10,000 yuan of vegetable soup.
Gao Qiqian hurriedly took it, and before he could say thank you, he saw green vegetables all over the place. He was shocked. It is spring, how come there is a supply of green vegetables, and this is on the grassland.
Yang Fan smiled and said: "These are freeze-dried vegetables. They are all dehydrated. As long as they are boiled in soup, they will return to the appearance of green vegetables. In fact, they are all vegetables from last year."
Gao Qiqian looked at this colorful bowl and immediately felt very appetizing. He immediately took a sip. The delicious vegetable taste made him almost cry.
He worked in the palace, which was considered the best place to eat. However, he rarely saw green vegetables a few times in winter. This time he actually ate them on the grassland.
Yang Fan's dough contains yeast powder, and the meat filling contains various spices. Now the clipper ship to Nanyang has brought back enough spices. These spices are ground into powder by Yang Fan according to the Thirteen Spices recipe of later generations, and used as food seasoning for the army.
.
In this era, there are so many types of seasonings, and the ingredient list is from later generations, how could it not be delicious? The techniques and recipes for making dough, mixing meat fillings, and seasoning are all from later generations. The things made by the fire-headed soldiers are better than
It’s only natural that the restaurants in the capital are delicious.
In particular, Yang Fan purchased all the sea intestines from the Bohai Sea. Grind them into powder and use them instead of MSG, which greatly improves the umami taste. It is very delicious whether it is stir-fried or made into soup.
Zhang Shize sat on the right side of Yang Fan. Seeing that Gao Qiqian had no intention of giving him a good look, he snorted and kept stuffing buns into his mouth. Yang Fan only ate one bun for a moment, then drank a bowl of soup.
He stopped eating. He still paid attention to controlling his weight to avoid gaining weight.
Besides, he came from a later generation and had no interest in these greasy foods. Unlike these people, when they saw these oily buns, they wanted to swallow them with their fingers. The remaining four buns on the plate in front of him were eaten by that beast Zhang Shize
, even the plate was taken away. In the blink of an eye, it was in his mouth.
Gao Qiqian was dumbfounded when he saw it. Was the British Duke's eldest son reincarnated as a starving ghost? However, he quickly ate his five buns. He saw that the people around him looked like they hadn't seen him. Gao Qiqian looked big.
I'm confused, is it appropriate to snatch the handsome man's food like this?
In fact, the whole army knows that the commander-in-chief always eats little for breakfast. Just for fun. He doesn't eat much for dinner, and most of the time he just drinks porridge. Vice General Zhang has a huge appetite, and his mouth is like a pit. How much can he throw away?
The buns can't even be filled even if they go in.
Everyone quickly destroyed their own buns, lest the beast take the opportunity to take away one or two. There are not many opportunities to eat mutton in this era, so we all cherish it.
The soldiers' meal was as fast as the wind, and they finished eating and drinking very quickly. The whole army set off as a team. A group of people got up and dived. In order to keep up with the speed, they choked, and they drank water smoothly while following the march.
Jiuyuan is three hundred miles away from Guihua City. It takes three days for the army to march.
Because, in these battles, a large number of livestock and war horses have been captured. The people in the Beijing camp have one horse. They have turned into mounted infantry. They are equipped with armor and are pulled by carriages. Everyone marches on horseback. It is not a problem to walk fifty kilometers a day.
When it got dark and they set up camp, Yang Fan sent a hundred households to be responsible for setting up camp for the eunuchs, setting up tents, and also serving as their guards to protect their safety. These people are angels after all, and if someone makes a mistake, His Majesty will not be there.
nice.
At night, when they entered the tent, more than thirty eunuchs had to make tents on the ground in a tent covered with felt. Surrounding the three tents were two general banners and a hundred-household residence.
This was the first time for the eunuchs to go on an expedition with the army, and they saw everything new along the way. But the strict management of the Beijing camp left a deep impression on them. There are dedicated people in charge of everything here. No matter what you want to do
, there is always someone responsible.
As soon as the army set up camp, they immediately pressed water wells and then burned them. It was recommended that the marching stoves be used to boil water. It was used for drinking by humans and animals, as well as for washing and boiling feet. Dinner was provided by the soldiers in cars. After the meal, there was hot water for tea.
There was also hot water for washing feet, which made the eunuchs feel a little dazed.
Is this an army out on an expedition, camping in the wilderness? The treatment is so good. Whether it is food or various rations, it is simply better than in the palace. No wonder Dingyuan Bo's soldiers can win the battle. They are so well-fed
Well, with such high military pay, if we don't win a big battle, will these Qiu Ba people still be considered human beings?
Gao Qiqian sat cross-legged on the felt, drinking tea from his favorite tureen and giving lectures to the eunuchs.
"Everyone of you, please be smarter to our family. This time, before coming here, the prince specially conveyed His Majesty's instructions, asking us to learn from Uncle Dingyuan and handle all matters in the army, no matter how big or small.
You know, you have to learn it. From now on, Your Majesty will have many uses for us. This means that Uncle Dingyuan has an old relationship with our family, and it is also for the sake of Your Majesty and the prince. Otherwise, who would show these secrets to you."
"Since ancient times, generals have cherished their secrets. If you want to learn their skills in leading troops, they will act like you want to steal his wife. They are looking at you hard. Haven't you seen Zhang Shize's face these days? With us
It's like I owe him money. This opportunity is rare. If you miss it, don't blame me for not reminding you."
As soon as Gao Qiqian finished speaking, all the eunuchs expressed their opinions one after another.
"Don't worry, Lord Governor. Uncle Dingyuan is a famous general in the world. Being able to learn to lead troops from him is a blessing that I have accumulated in eight lifetimes. I must have opened my eyes wide and watched without making any mistakes."
"The nobles don't let us learn. The more we learn, the more we learn. Otherwise, when His Majesty wants to use us in the future, won't we be deceived by these nobles and the cunning military chiefs in everything?"
Gao Qiqian said: "It's good for you to know. This is the chance to learn something real. If you miss it, it will be gone. You can just take care of yourself."
