[Comprehensive] The days when I pretended to be a meow in the Forbidden City

Naturally, Xun Yu and Cao Cao knew each other, and they worked together in Luoyang. Although they had one civil and one military, there was not much difference between civil and military in the Han Dynasty, and the capital city was not too big.

Especially a few days ago, his nephew Xun You came to him and told him that he wanted to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but Cao Mengde preempted him. Now Dong's thief may be more defensive.

Although it is a complaint, there is no lack of admiration for him who dared to assassinate Dong Zhuo when he was a gun and a horse, and he was able to retreat unscathed, and he could even deceive a horse.

Seeing Xia Anran's surprised expression, Xun Yu knew that he had guessed right. He blinked slightly, and seeing that there was no one else around except the two of them, he asked in a low voice, "Can you tell Mr. Cao where he is going?" ?”

Xia Anran's expression was complicated, he glanced at Xun Yu, and did not hide anything, "Mr. Cao should have traveled eastward and returned to his hometown. I heard that he wants to recruit soldiers and horses to carry Dong Zhuo with the people of the world with lofty ideals."

Eastbound...

Hearing this, Xun Yu thought for a while and asked, "But... did you go to Chenliu?"

He looked at Xia Anran's expression, smiled and shook his head, "But Yu guessed it right again?"

Xia Anran thought for a while, and said, "I'm guessing, Mr. Cao didn't say it clearly."

"Oh?" Seeing this, Xun Yu became a little interested, and he also felt a little eager to test the school, "Why don't you and I write the reasons together on paper, and see if we think the same?"

For this invitation, Xia Anran naturally would not refuse, the two returned to the hall, lit the oil lamp, took out the pen and ink, and wrote the pen at the same time, and it was about the same time that the pen was put down, Xia Anran got up and exchanged his answer sheet with Xun Yu, the two Written about the same.

Although Cao Cao's hometown is in Peiguoqiao County, which is also rich and prosperous, there is a natural disadvantage.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the governor of Yuzhou was located in Qiao County. The governor was a local warlord, and the government was naturally the place where troops were stationed. When he didn’t understand the position of the governor of Yuzhou, Cao Cao naturally didn’t dare to go back to his hometown. There it was.

Secondly, it is a name written by the two of them together: Zhang Miao, the newly appointed prefect of Chenliu. This man and Cao Cao are good brothers who grew up together. Will support Cao Cao's recruitment.

Thirdly, it is because of another childhood friend of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, who is in Jizhou at this time. Compared with Yuzhou, where the enemy and friends are unknown, Cao Cao naturally wants to hold a group with his friends.

It's just that Xun Yu wrote more than Xia Anran.

He wrote Henan.

Xia Anran was a little puzzled, Henan... Henan Yin?

Why did Xun Yu write about Henan.

Looking up, Xun Yu smiled slightly, but did not explain.Xia Anran frowned, thought for a moment, and said with some uncertainty and disbelief, "Mr. Cao...wants to use Chen Liu as the basis and directly take Henan Yin?"

Xun Yu just smiled, but still didn't answer. He picked up the cold tea cup and took a sip.

Xia Anran didn't pay attention to his posture, but continued to think. He suddenly stood up and took a sand table, and drew the current map of the Eastern Han Dynasty with bamboo branches. Chen Liu is adjacent to Henan Yin, and its location is almost at the same level as Luoyang City. level.

This is indeed the easiest and most difficult way to attack Luoyang City.

He originally thought that Cao Cao was there because of the three previous reasons, but now Xun Yu told him that Cao Cao was already bold enough to see the future before he even sent a single soldier?

He gasped, marveling at his boldness.

Who has the guts to see so many steps into the future when he has nothing?And he was ready to work hard, and what's even more frightening is that he succeeded many years later.

But how did Xun Yu know?

Xun Yu smiled, but didn't answer. He watched Xia Anran's face change from puzzlement to depression, and finally couldn't hold it back.

The elegant and handsome future Xun Lingjun stretched out his hand and patted Xia Anran's head, "You are still young, you will understand later."

He said what every grown-up loves to say.

Xia Anran didn't care, he was used to being touched on the head, and he didn't resist at all, instead he felt a little flattered.

Well, since you don't want to say it, let's take it as an inexplicable tacit understanding between your mastermind and the lord.

He squinted his eyes, and then saw the cook coming in from the outside with a basket, and immediately greeted him, and greeted Xun Yu to finish eating. The hot water made people freshen up and sleep peacefully. The next morning, Xun Yu got up first. When he stepped out of the guest room, he saw Xia Anran writing a book. For this young man, Xun Yu had complicated feelings in his heart.

He came from Chenggao, but in fact he came for the waterwheel.

The location of Henan Yinfu Ya is Luoyang, Luoyang circle is so big, this person also has acquaintance with Xun Yu, once heard him say that there is a young genius in the territory.

The matter of the waterwheel is no small matter, even Dong Zhuo knows the meaning of the appearance of this thing. If it is operated well, it will be a great contribution to him. He wanted to reward Xia Anran, but was stopped by Cai Yong and others. The excuse is that young people are prone to arrogance, so it is better to suppress it a little bit and reward it later.

This is the love of all ministers.

If Gein really attributed the achievements to Dong Zhuo, Xia Anran's reputation would definitely be damaged.

The Xun family could have gone south from Taigu Pass in Luoyang to return home, but Xun Yu took another route, just wanting to meet this young genius, and also with the idea of ​​taking a look at the waterwheel.

He is probably not the only one who has this idea.

Xun Yu thought, he coughed lightly, saw Xia Anran nodded, and then Shi Shi ran in.

After saying hello to each other, the two chatted for a while, and then had breakfast.The corn is freshly harvested, and the grain is rich in fragrance. It is served with pickled vegetables made by Lu's family. It tastes refreshing, delicious and filling.

Afterwards, Xia Anran sent away Xun Yu who had traveled eastward and left Chenggao.

Xun Yu sat in the carriage and went out of the city gate. His eyes were lowered, and his eyes fell on the bamboo slips that Xia Anran handed him before leaving.

Before leaving, Xia Anran held the bamboo slips written early in the morning, and then asked him if he could help bring the letter to Cao Cao.

He knew that this was Ming Tan, and the child was asking him clearly if he would vote for Cao Cao.

Will he?

Xun Yu himself didn't know.

But he still took the bamboo slips over, his mind was in turmoil, he didn't know whether what he did or thought was feasible.

Before the frame set off, Xia Anran suddenly asked him, "What is morality?"

Xun Yu looked into the boy's bright eyes, but swallowed all the words he had blurted out.

What is morality, morality is morality, and righteousness is justice.

Morality and justice are exactly the two words of morality.

But now, morality has been lost, but can justice still exist?

All the officials in the court were filial, honest and talented, but now there are so few people prostrate at Dong Zhuo's feet?

On the contrary, Cao Cao, who was approved as an eunuch, stepped forward.

What he wants to pursue, what he wants to fight for, is justice?

Xia Anran stood behind him, and said slowly, "This question was asked by my father when I was young. I answered at that time, morality is in the book, and the persuasion in the book is morality. From my heart is justice."

"Morality is what is written in the book, and I agree with it in my heart."

"My father called me arrogant."

"It's just that I haven't found the right answer yet." The young man standing at the gate of the city looked at him and smiled slightly. That's what I'm thinking about right now."

Xun Yu looked at him quietly, and the young man said calmly but firmly, "I want to protect the common people and bring peace to all generations."

"I only hope that at that time, Jun Xun and I will not become enemies."

The two looked at each other in silence, and Xun Yu suddenly showed a wicked smile. He stretched out his hand and pressed Xia Anran's head, with a very relaxed and freehand gesture, "You are small, but you have a high spirit."

He stepped into the car, looked down at Xia Anran, who was staring with disbelief, and said, "When you grow taller than me, come and talk to me about this."

Then the convoy rolled away.

Xia Anran was stunned and even ate a mouthful of ashes.

system!Did you hear the system?

Xun Yu!Xun Yu is making fun of me for being short! !

Xia Anran was almost stunned!

Xun Yu, this is, that Xun Yu, who is as gentleman as jade, is laughing at him for being short!And I'm not short at all, this body is still small, just started to develop, is it my fault that I'm short?Is it my fault that I can masturbate all the way to the end?

no!It's all the system's fault!Because the body is chosen by the system!

And isn't Xun Yu too tall?It is said that the ancient people were all short!Whether it's Chen Gong or Cao Cao, the heights are very friendly!

Why can Xun Yu grow so tall!System, tell me if there is a bug in it?

System: ... this host will take pills sooner or later.

The system wants to mock, but the system cannot say.

Xia Anran walked slowly inward from the gate of the city. Chenggao County had the duty of defense, and he noticed this at the beginning of construction, so a large open space was left near the gate of the city for the construction of the urn and the storage of ordnance.

Xia Anran read from the books that this kind of urn city might have tunnels, which can be used for one-way travel to the outside of the city, so that the soldiers can cooperate with each other. He is a little curious about this, but this place is guarded by soldiers, and ordinary people can't Get close, even if you stare at it, you will be stared at by soldiers.

There are three gates in Chenggao County, the outermost one is the heaviest. Between the second and third gates is the urn city, with arrow holes on the left and right. If a gate is broken, soldiers will enter the urn city and attack under the protection of the city wall. Kill the enemy when the city gate is broken, and the third line is the last line of defense.

Generally speaking, things like sieges rarely happen in the era of cold weapons. Most of them are besieged but not attacked, because the price the attacking party has to pay is too high. It is not a problem to go out and fight against others, and it is generally not a problem to guard for three to five months.

Especially for related cities in the pass like Chenggao Pass, supplies can be sent continuously. As long as the city gates are closed, those princes who conquered Dong can be killed.

Even if the general loses, there is nothing he can do about closing the city gate. For example, Lu Bu was defeated in the Romance, but he ran fast and rushed into the city gate. During this period, Dong Zhuo moved westward to Chang'an and withdrew his troops. The Hulao Pass in the Romance was enough to drag the allied forces to death.

Just when Xia Anran was walking in, he suddenly felt his head was heavy, and a big hand covered it, Brother Lu hugged his little cousin, "Brother, do you know that your fish basket has gained a lot! "

In an instant, all thoughts of defending the city were cleared in Xia Anran's mind, and he hurriedly dragged Brother Lu towards the bank of the Yellow River.

fish!

Caught fish spicy!

Yellow River carp!

When they arrived at the bank of the river, the place was bustling with excitement, and the Chenggao people who watched the excitement surrounded the bank so densely that they could hear exclamations from time to time. The cousin squeezed out a way, and others saw that the little hero was coming and gave way, so the two quickly reached the bank of the river.

A few of the fish baskets that had been put down had already been picked up, and a few fat and big fish were dumped on the bank to jump. The fish can naturally feel where the water is, and these fish are all jumping in one direction. As soon as he clicked, he wanted to jump into the water, but was kicked away by the villagers watching the excitement.

With only three cages, nearly ten large carp and some other small fish were harvested. This harvest is enough to make every fisherman laugh. Xia Anran leaned over to watch the villagers beat the baskets. The fish basket is heavy and has great resistance in the water. When it is lowered, one person is enough, but it takes two or three adults to lift it up.

It may be that the river fish here have never encountered this kind of catching method, so each fish basket that is hit can be harvested no matter where it is placed. The difference is the difference in the proportion of fish inside.

Theoretically speaking, these fish are Xia Anran's personal collection, because he made the fish baskets, and as for the labor of putting them into the cages and carrying them, the villagers don't care about this during the slack season, so after the harvesting of the cages, everyone will They all asked Xia Anran how to deal with this.

Looking at so many fish, Xia Anran couldn't help turning to one recipe after another in his mind.

However, limited by the materials, most of them could not be made. After thinking about it, he silently rolled up his sleeves.

In the next few days, almost every household in Chenggao began to cook fish soup.

River fish has an earthy smell and many thorns. At first, everyone didn't like to eat it, but Xia Anran taught them many ways to get rid of the earthy smell, and taught them some cooking techniques. As a result, more and more people eat fish, although some Some people are not used to the taste of fish, but most of them are acceptable.

Fish is a very good source of protein for the human body, and protein is an important part of human exercise. Generally, humans get protein from meat, but in today's era, there are few people who can eat meat, so most people are in in case of insufficient protein intake.

Protein is the building block of muscle!If you want to grow muscle, you can only destroy muscle fibers through training and then repair and grow muscle by supplementing enough protein. So simply speaking, if there is a lack of protein, the human body will not heal easily when it is injured, and it will not be easy to grow muscle. Muscle is the body's self A line of defense for protection can also protect joints, and when attacking as a soldier, muscles are needed to provide explosive power.

So in this era, it is useless to just have enough food, and there must be meat.

The easiest source of protein is eggs, but in this day and age poultry sources are rare, and fish is the best alternative he can find so far.

The live fish were soaked in salt water, and the dead ones were soaked in high-concentration salt water. Xia Anran danced like a tiger with a kitchen knife. The carp has two tendons, which can greatly reduce the earthy smell after being removed, and the key is, Now is the season for drying fish.

Dried fish can be eaten after being dried. It has a unique flavor and is a good way to remove the fishy smell and facilitate preservation.

Moreover, during the march, carrying salt with you will increase the burden, and for soldiers, salt is indispensable, and dried fish or meat can meet this need.

The following wars and chaos are coming, this time will be a catastrophe for land creatures, and there will be several famines after that... But for fish, the war in the era of cold weapons is not for them. Make a big impact, instead, provide them with plenty of bait.

However, when Xia Anran was reading the history books of the Three Kingdoms, he found that Cao Jun rarely caught fish to eat. He was so hungry that there was a record of eating human flesh, but he did not eat fish.

In ancient times when the rain belts hadn't moved southward, the Yellow River had never been bothered by the flow of the Yellow River. For fish, although the drought would have an impact on their ecology, as long as the river continued to flow, the impact would not be too great, and Fish reproduce fast, and as long as the year is good, they will recover soon!

It would be a waste not to eat fish!The tortoiseshell cat in Xia Anran's heart was heartbroken and broken.

He directed everyone to set up a few more cages. Some people have already tasted the sweetness in the past few days, and he also made a few rough fish cages, but if the number is too large, Xia Anran said that everyone must be spread out and cannot be placed in one place. Otherwise, no matter how stupid the fish is, they will not be fooled several times in a row.

Don't think that fish really only have a seven-second memory. In terms of life-threatening, their memory can be inherited.

Soon, the villagers followed Xia Anran to dry up rows of dried fish, except for the fresh fish that they had tasted at home.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, both salt and iron were officially sold, but the price was not expensive, especially the price of pickling salt was different from that of edible salt. Although the salt used for pickling was rougher and tasted a bit bitter, the common people didn’t care. After all, the salt will be wasted after pickling, and the food must be washed before eating. After washing, the bitterness will be lightened.

The fish bones were not wasted either, Xia Anran asked them if they wanted fish bones, boiled them in a pot, removed the minced meat, dried them in the sun and crushed them to make bone meal.

Bone meal is phosphate fertilizer.

This is a good memory. Modern people know that there are easy to have will-o’-the-wisps in the place where the bones are buried. The will-o’-the-wisp is the situation where the phosphorus in the bones ignites spontaneously at high temperature after being precipitated. This shows how high the phosphorus content in the bones is.

The three most important elements for plant growth are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.

Nitrogen is responsible for promoting plant growth, mainly in the leaves, which are strong and easy to photosynthesis.

Phosphorus is responsible for fruit setting and can also enhance the cold and drought resistance of plants.

The role of potassium is to increase the resistance of plants, and all the good qualities of basic plants depend on potassium.

Nitrogen fertilizers are extracted from human and animal urine, phosphorus fertilizers are extracted from bones, and potassium fertilizers are the simplest, just sprinkle plant ash.

The main increase of burning dung is phosphorus, potassium and trace elements.

Although the wheat seedlings are still sprouts and do not need to be fertilized, but in order for her beloved wheat seedlings to survive this winter safely, Xia Anran still plans to add a little bone meal to the wheat seedlings as an extra meal.

It can be said that whether Maizi can be successfully promoted depends on his little Zhuangzi.

Autumn and spring are simply the blessing times bestowed by God to all things in the world. In this season, it can be said that no matter what you do, it is not easy to fail. The first batch of dried fish will soon be ready to eat.

The carp in autumn is plump, even if it is made into fleshy meat, it is also plump. Whether it is chopped and covered with corn, or put in a piece when it is boiled, the taste is very good.

Just don't eat it with an empty mouth.

This is what Xia Anran asked thousands of times, because they did not undergo high-temperature sterilization when making dried fish, so it is an unavoidable problem that bacteria will be born during the production process. The solution to this is also very simple, just boil it before eating.

The first batch of people who dried the fish in the sun gave some to the people who didn't dry it. As a result, they all regretted it when they started their business at night.

That night, many people secretly poked and ran to Lingju's house, and secretly took back the dried fish they had sent over.

The next day, the neighbor noticed that the dried fish was missing, so he pretended to be nonchalant and pushed the pot to the civet cat who didn't know where it was.Blame the cat for being greedy, and then scold the cat with the neighbors, but it is absolutely unacceptable to give another one.

totally unexpected!

After the fish is dried, it is not fishy at all, and it is also very fragrant. Although it is a bit salty, it is not easy to chew, but the mother-in-law can eat it for two or three meals after adding ginger and garlic to the soup, and then it will not be salty. , The soup is fresh and delicious. After two days, the dried fish in the soup can be eaten directly. It is full of meat.

Xia Anran didn't care how many boats of friendship capsized among Chenggao people, he is now having dinner at the county magistrate's house.

Ever since he and Pang Tong became friends, Xia Anran has become a frequent visitor to Pang County Magistrate's house, and he also brought dried fish to the house today.

After the fish is dried, its flavor will be extremely concentrated due to the loss of water, and because the dry environment is not conducive to the growth of microorganisms, it will remove its own fishy smell when drying. This is the magic of time, breeze and sunshine. .

Xia Anran really likes this kind of food. He borrowed the kitchen of Pang's family and spent a lot of effort to promote this ingredient.

When the word "xian" was invented, it proved that two things were considered the most delicious by the ancients, that is, fish and sheep. For a long time, the word "xian" was always applied to fish.

He soaked the dried fish, took bamboo shoots, and made a soup, then took the fish out and fried it directly in the oil, and there was a soup and a dish.

Another piece of dried fish was shredded by him in advance, and then covered on top of the corn and steamed in a wok. During the steaming process, as the dried fish softened, the fish oil would soak into the corn one drop at a time, and when the rice was cooked, the dried fish It will be completely softened and can be eaten directly.

Fresh and delicious.

County Magistrate Pang and Pang Tong were very satisfied with the meal, and they were full of praise for it. After the meal, when Xia Anran talked about making this dried fish, County Magistrate Pang was still a little hesitant.

Gein has now entered autumn, and the water temperature has also dropped. In order to prevent each other's fish baskets from getting into the same place, many people who understand water skills will go to a place a little further away to put their baskets in the water. It can be used as a fish basket, and the harvest has also decreased. If one basket can catch one or two fish, it is considered a good harvest.

If you want to promote fish production...

The county magistrate didn't think it was necessary.

Xia Anran was holding warm tea and thinking about how to tell the county magistrate his real purpose, when he heard a childish voice softly say, "Brother Xia, is this for military rations?"

Looking at it from the two of them, it was Pang Tong who was originally listening with a stern face, his eyes were not focused, and he looked casual, but his words were straightforward, "I just watched Brother Xia make soup. Only one dried fish is needed for the soup pot. If it is a big pot in the army, it is only two or three fish. When boiled in white water, it will have salt and meat flavor. When marching, there is no need to bring more salt and meat. It is light and easy to store, just be careful not to get wet."

Pang Tong said slowly, "If this is used as supplementary food, it will greatly increase the marching speed of the troops."

"I'm really hungry... It's okay to eat dry food..." He and Xia Anran's eyes collided, and Xia Anran nodded in response, "Although dry food is bad, it requires a lot of drinking water, and it is easy to get mouth sores, but it is harmful to the body. It's all right."

And, it's meat after all.

Very hungry.

Da Da was stunned for a moment, watching the two children lightly raise dried fish from common people's daily food to military supplies, he felt a little uncomfortable.

He raised his finger and tapped it in the air, tapping this and that, wanting to say that the two of them were out of their minds, but couldn't speak, so he sighed and said a little tiredly, "The two of you... are really daring."

He just saw what these two people meant. Dong Zhuojun had just swept away the wealthy households in Luoyang, so there would be no shortage of food and grass.

I don't know where they got such great confidence, but they felt that there would really be an army to kill Dong.

Just when Pang County Magistrate thought this way, Chen Liu, who was a hundred miles away, slowly stopped writing, his sleeves moved slightly, and he put the pen down. , and then handed it to the man beside Hou, who was reading his book just now, and his face couldn't hide his excitement and excitement, "Wen Ruo's book is so hearty to read, I'll ask someone to copy it and send it to you." to the princes."

"My lord is so honored." Xun Yu, who personally wrote down the essay on defeating Dong, stood up, his eyes were as clear and soft as clear water, but with an unshakable firmness, he said to Cao Cao, "My lord, the army can be finished." ? How many people do we have now?"

Hearing this question, the smile on Cao Cao's face softened a little, "2000 people have been recruited, and Meng Zhuo is my boss, and he has managed to connect a lot of old rich households for me. Food and grass are not a big problem, but this is Meng Zhuo's territory after all. , I'm not good at making big moves..."

He sighed softly, "I have to go west and recruit troops at the same time."

Xun Yu nodded slightly, but just as he was about to speak, suddenly a soldier came from outside the tent to report that someone from Cao Cao's clan was looking for him.

Cao Cao opened the tent and came out, and saw a young man in armor standing at the door, seeing him coming out, the young man smiled slightly, "Brother, I'm here."

The author has something to say: The attack is coming out! !

Hee hee hee hee hee actually pass this rule and you will be able to GET attack in the next world.When I say faster than the last world, it is faster than the last world. It is one page earlier, and the author desperately stuffed him in. He wrote a thousand more words.

I remember that the protein content of dried fish is 50-60%. Even if it is dried, it will not be lost. It is an excellent food for protein supplementation.

Moreover, the body of fish contains a lot of trace elements, which are very beneficial for the development of children.

Now it is very convenient to eat fish in the north because of the convenience of air and land transportation. It was really not eaten in the past. I asked my grandfather about this.

It is very necessary to supplement protein when injured, (modern people don't need much) so the instinct of ancient people is to be injured - eat meat, must eat meat, eat meat to supplement meat!Because they are generally in a state of protein deficiency, which is different from us.

Then, in order to build muscle, you also need to supplement protein. The author’s father ate protein crazily when he was pumping iron, so I have a reflection (my father used to have 2-pack abs, but now he has a beer belly, tsk.)

So no matter you watch the ancient costume dramas, the heroes of external skills are eating meat and meat, and the internal skills are all eating fish and fish (hey)

In the Three Kingdoms period, the military rations were generally: millet cake, corn paste, jerky, butcher shop, etc.

Not to mention the Three Kingdoms, thousands of years later, our party’s military rations were also [millet] plus rifles, and this millet was corn.Because millet planting is the most extensive and requires little management, so during the war years, millet can guarantee the output, rice is not good at all, and wheat is slightly better.Rice has been a luxury until modern times, and ordinary people cannot afford it because the conditions for growing rice are too harsh.

So if you see a big warlord who eats white rice after time travel, that's right, local tyrants, rob them, make a lot of money, kidnap them for ransom after the robbing, you will definitely be rich.

Carp has an earthy smell, which can be removed by keeping live fish in salt water for a while, and can also be removed by pulling out two tendons when dissecting the fish, so some people think that the Yellow River carp is fishy, ​​but some don't, because the restaurant handles it problem.
