Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Dehua County patched things together this time, and finally put together an army of 3,000 people.

Except for the soldiers from Guliang's house and Heishui Town, who looked like soldiers, the troops from other towns recruited some servants and stuffed some young and strong tenants inside.

Such an army would hardly have any combat effectiveness.

As for the supply of the army, Zhang He estimated that the rations carried by each town can last for ten days at most.

Including the army of the Guliang family, the food they carry can last for half a month at most.

In comparison, the Black Water Army, who carried two months of rations, seemed a bit out of place.

In the logistics team of the Black Water Army, there are 20 vehicles with strange shapes.

There is a small wooden compartment in front of the vehicle, and there is a white zombie pulling the vehicle desperately, and it keeps screaming and seems very excited.

The body is large and filled with wooden boxes. These wooden boxes have been treated with tung oil and raw lacquer for waterproof and moisture-proof treatment.

Zhang He rode in the middle of the team. In order to reduce the logistical pressure, they only brought ten horses this time.

Now that his subordinates have grown up, he doesn't have to come this time, but this is his first expedition, so he also went to the front to see.

Moreover, Baron Zhiyuan, a strong foundation-building powerhouse, was dispatched, and he was not very relieved about this baron.

"I said Brother Zhang, you only have 100 soldiers, why did you bring so much food and grass?"

A fat man who was traveling with him urged his horse to catch up with Zhang He, and went with him, searching for a topic sentence by sentence.

This big fat man is named Wang Cai, the son of a big landlord's family, and this time he is responsible for bringing their royal family members to participate in the war.

It's just that the fat man's weight is a bit outrageous, and the warhorse under his crotch has been crushed by him to the point of panting.

Zhang Hechu roughly estimated that it must be at least 300 kilograms. With this body type, he is still on the battlefield. I don't know what his parents thought.

"100 soldiers need at least 200 catties of grain every day, and they have to consume 6,000 catties in a month. In addition to the civilians and horses, they must not be 10,000 catties of grain?"

Zhang He answered very seriously at this time. In fact, he didn't quite understand why he only brought so much food and grass, including Gu Liang's family.

"Hahaha, Brother Zhang, you don't understand. You will understand in a few days."

This Wang Cai also deliberately sold out, trying to appease Zhang He's appetite.

However, Zhang He didn't plan to continue to ask questions. It was just because of the food and the enemy. He was thinking of opportunistic tricks, but he also had to have a certain guarantee foundation.

"Brother Zhang, I see that you are strong and strong. Brother Zhang is also a dragon and a phoenix. If there is any danger on the battlefield, please take care of the younger brother."

As Wang Cai said, he took out a large gold ingot from his arms and stuffed it into Zhang He's hand.

This ingot is at least about ten taels, and it is worth one hundred taels of silver. For a country rich man, it is definitely a big deal.

Zhang He had no reason not to want the money delivered to his door, so he immediately accepted it and took it into his arms.

Anyway, on the battlefield at that time, if you can help you, you can help, but if you don't, you can't do anything, and you can't get yourself into it.

Their hybrid army did not move very fast. After walking all day, they only traveled more than 20 miles, not even 30 miles.

Camp and rest in a place with a water source at night.

Each army took out its own rations and started cooking.

From the military rations, you can roughly see the financial resources of an army. Most of the township army uses miscellaneous grains and dried wild vegetables to boil it into a paste, and it will be all right to deceive the stomach.

Only the dozen or so confidantes who follow the landlord will follow the landlord to eat spicy food, such as multi-grain cakes, vegetables, and even some wine.

Only the army of Gu Liang's family, every soldier in the family has pancakes made of pure grain, and they are full.

This kind of cake is made in advance, try to make it as dry and hard as possible, so that it can be stored for a long time and is not easy to break.

It is easy to carry and easy to eat. You can eat it directly, or you can tear it apart and cook it into a paste.

This kind of pancake made of pure grain without any wild vegetables is already regarded as a bully in the military ration industry.

So when the army was camped, the soldiers and villagers in the townships chewed the roots of wild vegetables in their mouths, and they could only cast envious eyes at the army of Gu Liang's family.

However, at this moment, a seductive fragrance wafted from one direction of the camp.

Smell this fragrance, let their body produce an instinctive response, and subconsciously feel that it should be delicious.

After countless thousands of years of human evolution, some flavors have long been engraved into the genes of inheritance.

For example, proteins and fats, the aroma emitted in cooking, makes people think of eating them as soon as they smell it.

The scent that comes out of the Blackwater Army Camp now comes from the scent of protein and fat.

Wang Cai, the big fat man who had given Zhang He gold, came over to see what happened while the two of them knew each other.

I saw that the Black Water Army threw packets of powdered things into the pot to cook, and the fragrance everyone smelled came from this powder.

In addition, he also saw some Blackwater Army soldiers mix this powder with a little water, then knead it into small balls, and stuff it directly into their mouths.

It looks very fragrant and delicious.

This made Wang Cai look greedy, he was already greedy, otherwise he wouldn't have grown to 300 catties.

Now he couldn't bear it any longer and walked to Zhang He's side.

"Brother Zhang, what do your troops eat? It smells really good."

"It's just some military rations~www.wuxiahere.com~ It's not worth mentioning. Brother Wang, you should try it too."

Zhang He said and threw two bags to Wang Cai.

This is the No. 2 military ration designed and formulated by Zhang He himself.

The No. 2 military ration is mainly made of corn, with a little soybean.

First fry these two materials until fragrant, then grind them into powder, then fry the locusts and grind them into very fine powder.

Mix these powders evenly, then add salt, lard, and soybean oil to it.

After mixing these powders evenly, it reaches the point where it can be kneaded into a ball and loosened.

If you don't have time, you can grab this powdered ration and eat it. If you have time, you can work it slowly and carefully.

In addition, there are two types of rations, No. 1 and No. 3.

No. 1 is the worst, that is to use some grains and then some wild vegetables to grind, add locusts, and a little oil.

This military ration material is somewhat inferior, but in terms of nutritional supply, it can still surpass the pure grain pancakes of the Guliang family.

The quality of No. 3 is the best. On the basis of No. 2, some locusts for qi training and the powder of Ling sweet potato vine are also added.

This ration already contains some spiritual energy ingredients, and the cost is relatively high. Only in special circumstances will it be eaten.

Wang Cai got two packs of military rations, opened a paper pack, and immediately there was a scent that wafted through his nostrils.

He picked up a pinch with his fingers and put it into his mouth, which was quickly filled with a complex aroma.

It's such a wonderful feeling.
