Li You said: "This is not difficult, I used to go out hunting, and researched a convenient food, which is easy to carry, does not need to start a fire for cooking, and can also ensure the nutrition and calories required by the soldiers." This food is chow mein ......"

Chow mein here is not chow mein but a mixture of flour. During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, due to the blockade of enemy aircraft, logistical supply was difficult. In order to ensure the diet of the soldiers, the volunteers specially invented a kind of cooked food, which is made of 70 percent wheat, 30 percent soybeans, sorghum, corn and other miscellaneous grains as raw materials. It is first fried, mixed with salt, and then becomes a convenient food that is easy to transport, can be stored for a long time, and is easy to eat. This food item is portable and can be eaten directly without heating.

Among these ingredients, the Tang Dynasty had everything except corn. And it is okay to use corn in this food, so it is not a problem to manufacture. If you add dehydrated vegetables to it, you can solve the required nutritional problem.

After saying this, Li You said: "If we solve the food problem of the soldiers, we can free up more manpower and material resources to solve the forage problem of the war horses." ”

The crowd nodded their heads frequently.

Li You continued: "Erchen has a suggestion. There are doubts about whether we will be able to enter the army at this time. Then the Tuyuhun people will also think so, our army will not march at this time. Therefore, this creates an opportunity for our army.

Our army can choose elite soldiers to form an assault force, one man and two horses, one of which carries exquisite horse food, and the food is carried by the people themselves. It is completely possible to cross the Grand Canyon of Qilian Mountain within ten days, go straight to the royal city of Tuyuhun, capture the thief and capture the king, and catch him off guard. Once there, the supply of grain and grass will not be a problem. ”

Li Tai listened to what Li You said, and asked another question, he said: "You are wishful thinking, what if you encounter other situations along the way, and the supplies can't keep up?" ”

Li You said categorically: "One person with two horses, it's really not good, just kill the war horse and eat meat!" ”

In fact, Li You did not have any military knowledge, but he had a science and technology library in his head, and he consulted the materials and knew the trend of history. At that time, Li Jing decided to withdraw from the army, and Hou Junji, the left attendant of the military department, put forward the proposal that Li You put forward now, and fought the basis of reason, and brought the lawsuit to Li Shimin. The Tang army finally adopted Hou Junji's suggestion and succeeded in the first battle.

Of course, with Li You's help, Hou Junji's attack will be much more convenient, and the casualties will be much smaller.

After Li You finished speaking, Li Shimin thought for a while and asked, "What do you think of King Yiyang's suggestion?" ”

Now is the critical moment, Li Tai is smart, so he will not express his opinion. He himself is a military layman, and if he says it wrong, it will not be good.

Li Chengqian couldn't make up his mind and didn't speak.

Li Ke's personality is like Li Shimin, and he is also very good at studying military books and war strategies, he said: "Father, son, son and minister think it is feasible. ”

Cen Wenwen also served as Li Ke's master before Quan Wanji, so he naturally supported Li Ke's opinion.

The eldest grandson Wuji is an all-rounder, capable of literature and martial arts, he thought about it for a while and said, "The minister thinks it is feasible." Originally, the ministers were in favor of marching immediately. With the supply guarantee of His Royal Highness King Yiyang, it is even more feasible. ”

Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "The war has dragged on for a long time, which is not good for our army. The minister agreed with the opinion of His Royal Highness King Yiyang. ”

At this moment, Zhang Liang, the right attendant of the military department, asked to see him.

After Zhang Liang came in, he said, "Your Majesty, Hou Junji has sent a piece of music, please take a look." ”

Li Shimin took it and looked at it for a while, and said, "Hou Junji's opinion is the same as that of King Yiyang. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said excitedly: "Your Majesty, you can make up your mind." ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said decisively: "Okay, just follow Hou Junji's opinion." Li You, the king of Yiyang, write your strategy and recipe into a military newspaper and send it to the generals Li Jing and Hou Junji. ”

Li You said: "The son obeys the order. ”

Li Shimin glanced at Li You, showing a rare smile of appreciation, and said, "You and Fang Xuanling, go and handle this matter immediately." Go to your mother's place for dinner. When the time comes, I will also pass. ”

"Wow!" This treatment, Li Chengqian and Li Ke are envious. Li Tai has been favored and enjoyed many times, but at this moment, his heart is also slightly sour.

The government agencies of the Tang Dynasty implemented a system of three provinces and six ministries. Zhongshu Province is equivalent to the general office of the government, holding the seal and issuing holy decrees. The ministry is in charge of the examination and approval of government decrees and the cashier. Shangshu Province set up left and right servants, in charge of administration, in charge of six departments.

Li You and Fang Xuanling left the palace and came to the imperial city of Shangshu Province. Entering Fang Xuanling's office, Fang Xuanling instructed the servant: "Go and take the Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots that the old man treasured and cook them for His Highness." "Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots is a famous tea in the Tang Dynasty, also known as Gu Zhu tea, purple bamboo shoot tea, produced in Huzhou (now Changxing, Zhejiang), is the first of the nine famous teas of the Tang Dynasty.

Li You said seriously: "Master Fang, the military situation is urgent, I won't drink tea, it's important to hurry up." ”

Fang Xuanling glanced at him and said in his heart: "Doesn't this scumbag king seem to be so unbearable, isn't he quite sensible?" ”

In fact, how did he know that it was Li You's tea that disliked him.

In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, there was tea, and there were many good tea varieties, but the processing technology was not up to par. Tea leaves must be dried before they can be stored and transported. The people of the Tang Dynasty did not know the process of roasting tea, and the tea leaves could not be exposed to the sun, so they dried them in a ventilated room. The tea made in this way does not taste good when brewed with boiling water. So, the people of the Tang Dynasty made tea to drink.

Boiling tea is actually the same as boiling vegetable soup, except that it is not cabbage or radish or anything like that, and the main ingredient in it is tea leaves. When boiling tea, green onions, ginger, garlic or salt are put according to the owner's preference, and the boiled things are not called tea, but tea soup.

As soon as Li You heard that he wanted to drink this, his appetite was gone.

After Li You finished writing, Fang Xuanling called the messenger of the Ministry of War, and Li You explained the precautions to him in detail, and he was busy for a long time before he finished his official duties.

Seeing Li You's serious appearance, Fang Xuanling had some good feelings for him.
