Chapter 1077: Canned Rice in a Big Pot (Seeking a Monthly Pass)
This battle can be said to have directly turned the tide of the war. Millions of people in Kaifeng City also had no sleep last night because there were sounds of fighting everywhere. Even the city was in chaos. How could they sleep in such an environment?
, if you are bolder, you will secretly open the window and listen to the conversations between passing soldiers, hoping to get some news from them. If you are timid, you will bury your head in the quilt.
However, early this morning, the fighting ceased, and the people poured into the streets one after another. They watched the flag on the city wall that never sets, fluttering in the wind. The big stone that had been hanging in their hearts all night finally fell. They also heard that the soldiers of the Song Army fought bloody battles last night.
Not only did he repel the Jin soldiers, but he also completely defeated the Jin army and alleviated the crisis in Kaifeng Mansion.
This was extraordinary. The people hugged each other and cried with joy. For them, this was like escaping from death. Many people spontaneously stood on the street and sang the national anthem. The songs were loud and clear, hovering in the hazy sky, as if they were singing.
It was sung to the enemy, but it seemed to be sung to the ears of those dead warriors.
I believe that after this battle, the Forbidden Army is no longer the object of hatred by the people, but the most trusted friends in the hearts of the people. Everyone is full of respect and gratitude for them.
But what exactly happened in this battle?
Everyone wants to know, but they can only wait for the latest issue of Song Dynasty Times Weekly.
Although it was a great victory, the Song army also suffered heavy casualties. Moreover, because the battle line was too long and fighting was taking place everywhere, there would be no statistics on the number of dead at this time. Preliminary estimates indicate that the number of dead would be no less than the bloody battle at Moutuogang.
The news came in the afternoon that the Jin Army had retreated to Mengyang, dozens of miles north of Kaifeng. This meant that it was impossible for the Jin Army to attack again in the past few days, but Li Qi was still worried. This area
Many sentinels were arranged so that if there was any movement from the Jin Army, he would be informed of it as soon as possible.
As dusk approached, the soldiers who had rested for the day walked out of their rooms one after another. They took a quick bath. In the morning, they were all exhausted and had no energy to even take a bath. They ate something and lay down.
They fell into a deep sleep as soon as they got to bed. After washing, they went to the school grounds to attend the dinner that Li Qi personally prepared for them.
Li Qi was the King of Golden Knife Chefs. After coming to the Song Dynasty, he held countless banquets of all sizes. It was really not difficult for him at all, but you can't treat Song Huizong and others the same way.
Treat these soldiers, because these soldiers cannot taste the exquisite dishes, and the capital does not have this condition now.
Therefore, this banquet is mainly based on canned food, but if you hand out a canned food to each person, it is quite a lot. Now is not the time to splurge, so Li Qi simply brought a big pot of canned rice. He mixed various flavors of canned food.
Put all the canned food into the cooked white rice and stir-fry together. Gradually, the white rice becomes sauce-colored and shiny. There are fish, meat, grasshoppers, vegetables, and some sausages and spicy ones in it.
It was delicious and rich. The aroma of bean drum stimulated the stomachs of the soldiers and made them salivate.
Originally, Li Qi planned to hold the banquet indoors, but there were too many people. He also saw that although the sky was hazy, it did not rain, so he arranged the banquet outside. He summoned all the cooks in the capital.
Put the big pot under the shed and fry the canned rice.
There was a long queue of people standing in front of each shed, looking at the rolling rice grains in the pot. They were really greedy. Not only that, each of them also got a small can of fermented bean curd, which was soft and smooth.
The tofu curd, paired with this fried rice, is also a delicious dish.
The purpose of Li Qi's doing this was not to be the best, but to be full! As for the issue of drinks, because the enemy had not left yet, this was not a celebration banquet, so Li Qi did not prepare drinks for the soldiers, only some generals.
I bought a small amount of Tianxia Wushuang, but they are all limited, so it is impossible for anyone who wants to get drunk.
This big pot of canned rice is very satisfying for the soldiers. Canned food is not cheap, and most people can only buy a can occasionally to try, but now they have tasted almost all the canned food, and each of them has a big bowl of rice.
, the fragrance is fragrant, looking for friends who will live and die with you, sit on the floor, congratulate yourself for surviving, and at the same time remember your friends who died in the war.
For a time, everyone was in a mixture of sadness and joy, with tears and laughter.
The scene is very warm.
Niu Gao, Yue Fei, Yang Zaixing, Yue Fan, Wu Jie brothers, Zhang Xian, Bi Zhan and some other young generals were naturally sitting together. After a battle, they had undoubtedly gradually replaced Zhong Shidao and the others and became the most powerful generals in the Song Dynasty.
Backbone of strength, their future is bright.
"Haha! Yue Fei, Zaixing, don't you know how nervous Bu Shuai was before you came back this morning?" Niu Gao took a stingy sip of wine and grinned.
Yue Fei groaned and asked curiously: "Really? Why didn't I see it?"
Zhang Xian, being young, was even more curious and said: "General Niu, that's not right. I see Bu Shuai is quite calm and not nervous at all."
Niu Gao clicked his tongue and said: "Brother Zhang, you just came here and you don't understand Bu Shuai, but Yue Fei, you shouldn't understand him."
Yue Fei was about to open his mouth when he suddenly blinked unconsciously, coughed slightly, and said sarcastically: "Yes---really?"
"Of course!"
The more Niu Gao talked, the more excited he became. He grabbed Zhang Xian beside him and said: "Brother Zhang, Bu Shuai is not around this time, so I dare to tell you. I have been with Bu Shuai for the longest time. Bu Shuai is here."
This man, just like today, can be unpredictable. When he is in a good mood, he will not blame you for anything you do. But if he is in a bad mood, you must not mess with him, otherwise, huh
Humph, it will be easy for you. We call him Bu Shuai in front of others, but behind the scenes we call him a ghost. Think about it, ghosts are worried when they see you. How terrible is that?"
Zhang Xian scratched his head and said doubtfully: "But I think Bu Shuai is a pretty good guy!"
Yue Fei suddenly said: "Niugao, you drank too much."
Niu Gao waved his hand and said: "It's not like you don't know my drinking capacity. I haven't even started this yet. Besides, Bu Shuai gave us so much wine, and everyone has a limit. How can we get drunk?"
Bu Shuai is a bit stingy."
As he said that, he pulled Zhang Xian and said: "Brother Zhang, you are still young after all. You don't understand how sinister people are. Don't look at Bu Shuai who always smiles. He is called hiding his sword in his smile. When he smiles happily, someone will suffer."
Okay. This is not what I said. It was said by the ministers in the court. Those ministers are all cannibals, but in front of our Bu Commander, they are like dead dogs. No one dares to go.
Provoke him. I've been with him for so long, and I can't even tell what he's thinking. Let's just say this morning, before you guys came, Bu Shuai was so restless that he almost ran to the roof in a hurry.
, but as soon as he heard that you were coming, he immediately pretended to be calm. If I were not here, I would probably have to hide it from him. This person is not scary. The scary thing is that you don’t know what he is thinking. Sometimes
If you don't say a word well, he will immediately turn against you, a little bit ---."
Yue Fei suddenly coughed several times and said, "Niugao, you said too much."
Niu Gao was very dissatisfied and said: "Yue Fei, don't forget, if it hadn't been for Brother Zhang and the others last night, we wouldn't have known whether we were alive or dead. Of course, I have to tell him Bu Shuai's true identity to prevent them from being careless.
If they offend Bu Shuai, then they will suffer the consequences. I am repaying the favor. Don't stop me."
"True identity? I'm confused by this. You said before that you never knew what I was thinking, and now you say your true identity. Isn't this contradictory?"
As soon as Niu Gao finished speaking, a very confused voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Niu Gao's excited face collapsed at the sight. He glanced at Yue Fei with resentment. Yue Feili didn't want to pay attention to this stubborn cow. He thought to himself, I have given you many reminders just now, but you turned a deaf ear.
You also asked me not to stop you. Can you blame me?
Zhang Xian was startled. He turned around and saw Li Qi, Ma Qiao, Jiugui, and Yelu Guyu standing behind him at some point. They all had different expressions. They stood up and clasped their fists and said, "Boy."
Zhang Xian has met Bu Shuai."
Niu Gao suddenly played, raised his right hand, gave Li Qilai a standard military salute, and said seriously: "Hello, Commander Bu."
Li Qi raised his hand to tell Yue Fei and others to stop saluting, and then he said to Niu Gao: "Niu Gao, you have been with me for so long, and your skills with your hands have not improved at all, but your skills with your mouth are quite obvious."
It’s gone up quite a bit, why do you feel sad when you see it, and what else is hidden in your smile, I don’t understand it very well, can you explain it to me?”
"this---!"
Niu Gao's eyes were full of fear, and big beads of sweat fell down his cheeks.
Yue Fei and other soldiers all lowered their heads and snickered, but Wu Jie and others were a little confused. This Niu Gao, a seven-foot tall man, was as strong as an ox. When he saw Li Qi, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He was so majestic.
Don't dare to breathe.
"Huh? Why are you sweating so much?" Li Qi said with a smile.
Niu Gao hesitated and said: "Hot---hot."
"Oh, they say fat people are afraid of heat. It seems that they are right. It's time for you to lose weight."
"Yes Yes Yes."
"Then you should eat less. There are still many soldiers who are skinny. As the boss, you should give way."
"The last general---the last general knows."
Li Qi nodded and said with a smile: "You said so much before, I didn't hear most of it very clearly, but you are right in what you said. When I am happy, I will not be angry at anything you say."
As he spoke, he patted Niu Gao on the shoulder and said, "I'll tell you some good news. I'm really happy today. Haha!"
When Niu Gao heard this, he finally took a breath and let out a heavy breath.
Unexpectedly, Li Qi then said: "But as I said before, the war is far from over. The enemy is still in our territory of the Song Dynasty. Just drink some wine to cheer up. Don't get drunk. I see you seem to be drunk."
It’s almost done. Just give the rest of your wine to others.”
"I---I'm not drunk!"
"Um?"
"Bu Shuai is really aware of everything. I am indeed drunk!"
"Taking care of it!"
Li Qi turned to the drunkard and said, "Drunkard, I'm taking advantage of you."
When it comes to wine, a drunkard is never polite. He ruthlessly took away most of the jar of wine next to Niu Gao and said with a smile: "Xiao Niu'er, thank you very much."
Xiao Niu'er? Niu Gao was so aggrieved that he almost cried. He had saved drinking before, but now it's better. He is really back before liberation. He knows that once this wine gets into the hands of this unscrupulous uncle, he will definitely drink it.
No, the problem is that I can’t beat him. I thought to myself, didn’t you say you were in a good mood? Why did you confiscate my drink when you were in a good mood?
Li Qi was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. Fortunately, he was indeed in a good mood, otherwise he would have to sue Niu Gao for slander. Wu Jie, Zhang Xian and the others have just arrived, and you are smearing me, and why are you allowing me to continue in this position?
Hang on! Walking up to Bi Zhan, Bi Bi Zhan was wrapped in a white cloth and said with concern: "Bi Zhan, you should have a good rest in your room."
Bi Zhan scratched his head and said: "Bu Shuai, I can't sit still, this little injury won't bother me at all."
After Li Qi heard this, he didn't force it and said, "Well, you can sit here for a while, but you can't sit here for too long."
"Yes Yes Yes."
At this time, a soldier ran over and said: "Commander Qi, Gao Yanei is here."
"What?"
Why is this mythical beast here too? Li Qi raised his eyebrows and without any hesitation, waved his hand and said, "Shoo him away."
"Ah? But Gao Yanei brought many people here, and---and he said they came to reward the army."
"Nani?"
