Mohist Tang

Li Jing entire group has not yet arrived at the Firearms Squad site, it has already smelled a strong smell of meat.

“It smells so good!” Cheng Yaojin greedily smelled the smell of meat in the air. Since he set off, he hasn’t enjoyed the Mohist Family food for a long time, and the aroma immediately made him salivate. ruler.

It’s not just Cheng Yaojin, even the generals can’t help taking a deep breath, let alone ordinary soldiers, if it weren’t for the strict military order, I’m afraid it would have been around long ago.

“I heard Mohist Family food out of the ordinary for a long time, and sure enough the name is not in vain.” Li Jing haha smiled and led the generals into the Firearms Squad station.

As soon as I entered Firearms Squad, I saw a cauldron in front of a large pot. A soldier was frying white flour. Mo Dun was pointing to the side. When Li Jing entire group came in, Mo Dun quickly greeted me. salute.

“pay respects to generals!” Mo Dun bowed.

Li Jing nodded, looking at a big pot of fried noodles exuding steam, he wondered: “This is what Chancellor Mo called the new military ration.”

Mo Dun explained: “This is fried noodles. It is a traditional folk delicacy in Huai’an. The local Yellow River is flooded. Every year, a large number of civil servants are called to repair the river embankment. Every time the civil servants go to repair the river embankment, the wife of the family will manufacture some fried noodles. Let the civilians carry it as a dry food on the road, which can last for a long time. Even as a tradition, every June 6th, the local manufacture fried noodles are eaten. It is said that after the fried noodles are made, they can be stored for two months as long as three months.”

“Two months!” Li Jing couldn’t help cry out in surprise.

The generals couldn’t help but looked at Mo Dun with suspicion. They could store dry food for two months. They had never seen it.

Mo Dun nodded and said: “According to local records, if some folks bring too much fried noodles and have not finished eating them, they can still be used as dry food for the return trip after three months of river work.”

“There is still this thing!” Li Jing said strangely in surprise.

“There must be soldiers in Huai’an in the army, and the generals can tell after asking.” Mo Dun believed.

“Come, go to the army to find a group of soldiers from Huai’an.” Li Jing is instructed without hesitation at the moment, and can store dry food for two months. If it can be confirmed, then the expedition For the army, it will get rid of the burden of heavy logistics. What a help it will be!

If this is the case, the Western Expedition has not yet started a war, then a credit has been made.

Suddenly, a group of generals looked at the weakly crowned boy with jealous eyes. They probably believed 80% of the role of fried noodles. With Mo Duns reputation, if not sure, then How would you take this risk.

They risked the mortal danger to gain military merit, and Mohist Family Son could get it as easy as blowing off dust. How could this balance everyone’s hearts.

“Whether the fried noodles are true has yet to be confirmed. Then can Chancellor Mo buy so many livestock and poultry to keep them for so long.” Hou Junji looked at the steaming cauldron next to the fried noodles, a lot of meat Blocks ups and downs, exuding a seductive fragrance, could not help cynically said.

Mo Dun sighed: “Although fried noodles are easy to store, the soldiers are killing the enemy for the country. Long-distance expeditions are the most physically demanding. If there is only pasta, it may be difficult to support it without meat.”

Mo Dun’s words immediately made the generals slowly nodded. They are often in the army, and they naturally know the suffering of the soldiers. When they heard Mo Dun think about the soldiers, the expression looking towards Mo Dun could not help but soften a bit.

“So, the youngster thought, add some minced meat to the fried noodles, so that it will be delicious and can replenish the strength of the soldiers.” Mo Dun brought a plate of fried noodles with meat. Mo’s dry food, motioned everyone to taste.

“en! Meaty, delicious.” Li Jing took a sip, eyes shined.

“Salty, salt should be added, so there is no need to bring extra salt.” Cheng Yaojin eyes shined.

“It’s too dry.” Duan Zhixuan swallowed hard.

Mo Dun hurriedly handed the cold boiled water that had been prepared a long time ago, and everyone drank it, and then it slowed down, looking towards the nodded who was not satisfied with the fried noodles mixed with meat.

“Its good to dry, so it lasts longer, and this taste is much better than dry corn rice, I like it Old Cheng.” Cheng Yaojin praised loudly.

The reason is that dry talents are easy to preserve. This is why the expedition has to prepare dry food. Suddenly, the public will believe that Mo Dun’s two-month shelf life is a little bit longer.

At this moment, Li Jings guards came hurriedly with five soldiers and reported: “reporting to general, soldiers from Huai’an native place have been brought.”

“pay respects to General!” Five soldiers from Huai’an native place looked at the generals in front of them and said in panic and fear.

Li Jing came forward with a soft voice, pointed at the fried noodles and asked: “Do you know what this is?”

An elderly soldier nodded said: “This is fried noodles , Is a common thing in Xiaoren’s hometown, and it is a must-have for people to repair the river.”

“This thing can really be stored for two months.” Li Jing asked.

The older soldier affirmed: “It is indeed possible. After receiving the call, the villain started from his home in Huai’an. The dry food Madam prepared for the villain at home was fried noodles. From Huai’an to Chang’an City villain After a total of two months, the fried noodles prepared are still good and edible.”

All the soldiers from Huaian native place were nodded and said one after another: “So are the villains. I heard that some Hegong workers store them. There are also fried noodles for half a year.”

After hearing the testimony of soldiers from Huai’an, the generals were convinced that this fried noodle is indeed a rare military food.

“Chancellor Mo is indeed an educated person, far away in Ch_ng’n, and he can learn about Huai’an folk customs far beyond a thousand li.” Duan Zhixuan praised.

Mo Dun modestly said: “General Duan is overwhelmed. This is the record of Mohist Periodical’s collection of world anecdotes, and it is only accidental.”

Li Jing solved the dry food of the army expedition The question, I am happy and said: “The world knows that there are many fried noodles, but you can think that Chancellor Mo is the only one who uses it in the military rations. After this expedition, this General will definitely ask the Imperial Court for you.” /p>

However, what surprised the generals was that Mo Dun slowly shook his head and said, “This is fried noodles and not a product of the Mohist Family. Youngsters dare not specialize with such merits of presenting Buddha with borrowed flowers.”

p>

The generals immediately looked at Mo Dun like a fool. This is military merit, not equivalent to other merits. To put it bluntly, in Great Tang, as long as you have enough military merit, apart from rebellion, Even capital crimes can be exempted.

Li Jing looked at Mo Dun in surprise, looking thoughtful and said: “Everyone says that the Mohist Family’s products are nothing new in the world. Could it be that the dry food you said is not fried noodles. “

Mo Dun proudly nodded and said: “Yes, this is what I will dedicate to the general in the end.”

Mo Dun finished speaking, reached out and handed Li Jing a four-four It is square, like a block-shaped item of the palm of your hand.

“This is?” Li Jing questioned.

“Compressed dry food!” Mo Dun seriously said.
