"Chief, it's time to eat!" Lao Yang reminded in a low voice when he saw the deputy commander-in-chief chatting with the deputy chief of staff in the headquarters war room.
"Well, it's getting dark so quickly. In the afternoon, I heard that your cooking team followed Wang Ping and caught a lot of big fish, and even sent a lot of them to the nearest guard company. They did a good job. Boss, let's have braised pork tonight.
Fish, let’s go and have a taste of Wang Ping’s craftsmanship!”
A large pot of braised fish, a large basket of steamed buns, and a large pot of pig bone stewed radish exuding a strong aroma were placed on the table next to the war room.
The deputy commander-in-chief, who had been smiling just now, suddenly became serious. He pointed at the carrot bone soup and asked: "What's going on! I remember that the cooking class seems to have no funds. Where did you get the money to buy pork?"
?”
Lao Yang, who had long expected that the deputy commander-in-chief would ask a question, quickly told his story of the day.
Then he did not forget to add: "The squad leader said that eating radish bone soup in winter is not only nutritious and replenishing the body, but also very warm!"
The deputy chief of staff was already sitting in his seat and made a large bowl of bone soup but started to drink it. While drinking, he said with emotion: "Boss, Wang Ping is right. The taste of this soup is really good. Drink it while it's hot and your whole body will be warm."
We didn’t eat pork bones in the past. It seems we should change this idea. Stewing radish with pork bones is delicious, nutritious, and more importantly, very cheap!”
After drinking a large bowl, he picked up a steamed bun and started eating the braised fish. While eating, he sighed: "This Wang Ping, it's really the right thing to let him go to the cooking class. The food at the headquarters is good, and he can still
Find ways to make money and reduce the logistical pressure on the headquarters!”
In the next half month, the head of the headquarters was able to eat a meal of meat, fish, and game caught by Wang Ping through traps almost every day.
In this half month, by sending fish, game, and some furs to the county, the cooking class, which originally did not even have a piece of ocean, actually accumulated more than a hundred yuan.
The reason why there are so many is because Wang Ping was very lucky. The trap he set in the forest actually caught a wolf. A complete wolf skin brought dozens of yuan in income to the cooking class!
Mr. Yang from the cooking team was very happy during this period. He smiled even in his dreams at night. Especially after seeing more than 100 yuan in his hand, the smile on his face became even stronger.
Although Wang Ping's arrival made the cooking class more and more busy, everyone was happy.
It is the dream of all soldiers to make the head of the headquarters well fed and well fed.
Now not only the head of the headquarters is eating well, but they are also eating with their mouths full of oil.
For no other reason than to have one meal a day, which is better than what they eat during the Chinese New Year, the people in the cooking team become busier and more energetic.
Wang Ping, after being busy at the beginning, became more leisurely as his fishing and hunting skills were slowly handed over to the two smarter warriors in the cooking class.
At this moment, a staff officer from the headquarters suddenly rushed over.
"Squad leader Wang, the leader ordered: The cooking team will immediately prepare dry food for the headquarters for five days, hurry up, we will set off tomorrow morning~"
As soon as the staff left, Wang Ping summoned the cooking team.
"Lao Yang, we must have done this often in the past when preparing dry food. It's still the same old rule. You will give specific instructions.
It took a whole night of busy work at the headquarters to complete the production of dry food for five days.
Wang Ping, who thought it was something good, was frightened again.
Wo Wo Tou steamed buns, also known as Wo Wo Tou steamed buns.
If Wang Ping is allowed to eat steamed buns that have just come out of the cage while they are still hot, with soup and vegetables, Wang Ping will have no problem at all."
But the problem now is that the weather is too cold, and all the steamed buns that came out of the cage have turned into cold steamed buns that are harder than bricks after they are distributed to everyone. It hurts your teeth to bite down.
What's more important is that when eating these steamed buns, there are no vegetables, not even a pot of hot water. If you are unlucky, you will have to eat them with ice-cold water.
The five-day forced march was far more difficult than Wang Ping imagined.
Because the headquarters was targeted by the Japanese, the Japanese and puppet ground troops and aircraft swooped toward the headquarters like flies.
Not to mention resting during the entire transfer process, there was even no time for meals.
As for heating hot water, don't even think about it.
Fortunately, the headquarters was used to this kind of transfer, and after walking on mountain roads and night roads for four consecutive days, it finally stopped.
"Squad leader Wang, the leader ordered the cooking team to cook a hot meal for everyone immediately. The army has begun to experience non-combat attrition in the past two days!" The staff officer who had been here a few days ago ordered as soon as he caught up with Wang Ping.
"I'm not leaving!" Wang Ping asked immediately.
"I won't leave for now. My tail has been thrown off. I should be able to stay here for a while. The mountains are high and the forests are dense. Even if the Japanese army knows about it, they won't be able to get up!" The combat staff officer did not hide anything.
Wang Ping, whose mouth was almost dry and couldn't taste the chewing, also wanted to have a hot meal right away, so he immediately ordered.
"Lao Yang, take out all the wolf meat we saved and stew it!"
"Xiao Wang, go to Lao Yang's place and see if you can buy some radishes and flour with the little money you have. If you don't have flour, you can buy some whole grains!"
"Others set up the pots and light the fire to cook!"
Three hours later, Wang Ping, who had finally eaten for several days, was lying on the bed but couldn't sleep.
The painful experience of the past few days made Wang Ping realize a very fatal shortcoming of the Eighth Route Army, which was the lack of complete dry food reserves.
In the past, when I was in the Independent Regiment, because the troops captured a lot and rarely fought continuously, there was almost no such problem.
However, once the troops encounter a large-scale counter-encirclement and suppression operation like last time, they will not be able to end the battle within a month or two. The quality of dry food can greatly affect the outcome of the battle to a certain extent.
Just like these days, if the combat troops are allowed to eat steamed buns that are harder than rocks every day, within three days, the soldiers' physical strength will slowly decline, their physical strength is gone, or they are sick, then the combat effectiveness of the troops will definitely decrease.
Greatly affected.
"We must find a way to solve the dry food problem!" Wang Ping thought to himself.
"The Eighth Route Army focuses on guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare, and often conducts long-distance raids. If the soldiers can bring delicious and nutritious dry food, the combat effectiveness of the army will not be affected due to hunger!"
The next day, Wang Ping began to recall the various dry foods he knew, trying to find one that was very suitable for the Eighth Route Army.
After all, the Eighth Route Army had limited conditions and limited funds. Even if Wang Ping could make it, he couldn't afford dry food that was too good and too expensive!
Therefore, the dry food that Wang Ping wants to make must meet the following conditions: cheap, simple, storable, and nutritious. If it can also satisfy the requirement of being delicious, that would be great.
