scientific farming

The trapped city is so "tasteful", Zheng Zhengbiao is very breathless.

However, in the besieged city, whether it is the defenders or the people, they all happily followed Song Wen to work as if their noses were broken and their brains were stupid.Within two days, not only the half of the city that had been reclaimed, but the whole city was reclaimed, and the smell was completely diffused.However, the smell of human and animal manure water is even more annoying when it is exposed to the scorching sun.

Zheng Zhengbiao rushed to Song Wen several times, seeing people from a distance, surrounded by many people.If he rushed up, Song Wen took out the token of the late emperor, and he knelt down, what face would he have in the hearts of the people?I can only go back to the front of my eyes, I can only be aggrieved and go back to the house again, and stay behind closed doors!

After three or five days, the vegetables grew, and the whole city was jubilant, and everyone was beaming.The besieged city, which was originally lifeless, suddenly became lively.

Shops in the city have also opened, but they can't just replenish the goods, and the stocks are slowly sold.

Those who raised chickens and ducks in the city rushed to sell them, and there were still many chicks and ducklings.Before the besieged city was besieged, they were worried that there would not be enough grain to eat, and the chickens and ducks had lost a lot of weight, and they could not sell them.Seeing General Xiao coming this time, as well as the county magistrate of farming, he didn't worry about saving grain.It's just that free entry and exit are not allowed inside and outside the city. These hatched chicks and ducklings cannot be raised anymore and can only be sold.

As soon as Song Wen saw it, it was all meat, so he wanted to cover it all on the spot.Reluctantly, there was no food left in his hand, so he could only watch helplessly.

Seeing it, Xiao slightly discussed it with the chicken and duck farmer: "You chicken and duck, I will take care of it all. But I will give you money. In the current situation in the city, you definitely don't want it, but I can't give it to you until the food and grass arrive. Grain. I will give you a token and a note, you take it, and when the grain arrives, you can come to me to exchange for grain, or anything else."

The chicken and duck breeder is still clever, General Xiao is good, but I heard that the idiot General Zheng is the one who decides, so I couldn't help hesitating and said: "General Xiao, of course I believe you. Just in case... ..." He glanced upwards, hinting at the emperor, and then said, "The food and grass can't arrive, I still have a mouthful of chicken and duck meat to fill my stomach..."

Xiao slightly nodded: "Just in case, if you have the token, you can ask me to make a condition in exchange."

The chicken and duck breeder was immediately happy, and directly stuffed the grown chickens and ducks in several cages, as well as the chicks and ducklings, in front of Xiao Lue, and asked him to follow the chickens and ducks in the chicken cages Face to face, the chicken that almost made the poking head peck its face, but reacted quickly, stood up directly, and backed away a little.

"General Xiao, I'll give you the chickens and ducks." The chicken and duck breeder took Xiao Lue's token and happily left empty-handed.

Song Wen just stared at the cage for a few moments, seeing Xiao Lue doing such a big deal empty-handed, and knowing it was for himself, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise again and again, and he didn't get up, just squatting like that, tilting his head sideways Looking at Xiao slightly smiled: "General Xiao, is this going to train chicken soldiers and duck generals to go to the battlefield to peck the enemy to death?"

Xiao slightly shook his head, unable to hear Song Wen's teasing at all, and said seriously: "If you want it, I'll buy it for you."

Song Wen said happily: "General Xiao, wait for the granary to be abundant."

All the fields that can be reclaimed in the impoverished city have been reclaimed, and Ah Mian is directly in the yamen, following the example of the capital yamen, planning out the inner and outer walls, and planting in the yamen.All the people in the impoverished city wanted to grow at home, so they went directly to the Yamen to learn how to do it.

Yamen and homes are all for people to live in. Of course, human and animal manure cannot be used, and it is not easy to use in a besieged city. It is just plant ash as fertilizer, which is really not fertile enough. If fermentation is used as fertilizer, it will take time. too long.This point, Ah Mian also said first, many people who were hesitant, were very positive.

In this way, Song Wen will be free. Fortunately, he has such a flock of chickens and ducks.

Song Wen directly opened the cages for the chicks and ducklings, and put them in the impoverished city to raise them for a walk. Anyway, there are fields planted with vegetables everywhere, which happens to be fertilized by manure, which can also help loosen the soil and catch insects. , and save the feeding rations, it is perfect.

As for the adult chickens and ducks, Song Wen had already thought about where each piece of meat would go.

The chicken breasts are used to fry chicken chops, and there is little meat on the back, so they are used to skewer into small skewers, fried chicken skewers, chicken necks and chicken feet are used to grill, and finally the chicken skeleton is left. Mix pepper powder with salt to barely serve as Salt and pepper, make a salt and pepper chicken skeleton, crispy and raw in one bite, and taste very good.

What's more, these things taste great. They are all fried and fried on the city wall and behind the city gate, and the oil sizzles. The enemy soldiers who besieged the city are still salivating? !

The duck was directly used to make old duck soup. The soup was stewed until the flesh and bones were separated, and then water was used to dilute the soup. A large pot was placed on the city wall, and a row of diabolo tubes were placed to string all kinds of vegetables that could be imagined. Skewers, boil them in the soup base, put them in a bamboo tube, and pour some soup into the bamboo tube, it is a bamboo tube of Oden.There are also hot ones, including marinated offal of chickens and ducks. After marinating, they are poured with boiling oil, and the skin is puff pastry.

That taste, tsk tsk...

Sure enough, according to the method Song Wen said, once it was done on the city wall, the enemy soldiers who besieged the city would all go crazy.These days, I finally got used to the taste of rice in bamboo tubes, vegetable and meat porridge, and I think I can get through it. Mom, there are fried, marinated, and soups in that bamboo tube...

Now the enemy soldiers besieging the city raised their necks and looked at the cauldron on the wall of the besieged city. They seemed to be able to hear the sound of duck soup boiling in their ears, as well as the sizzling on the big iron plate, which was said to be chicken steak. thing.Just thinking about it made their eyes glow green.

If they didn't know the reason, the archers who were always on guard on the city wall would have thought it was a siege and were about to shoot arrows.But at this moment, they are all very calm. That day the besieged soldier's eyes are not green, so there is a problem!

And the besieged soldier's eyes had a lot of green light, and he couldn't help but start to wonder, Xu Liangcao in the besieged city is not nervous at all? !

However, the enemy generals thought that the besieged city might have dug a secret road to get food and grass in. Otherwise, it would have been miserable before, but when Xiao Lue came, the whole city would be happy and live better than when there was no war before, why? possible? !

Thinking about it this way, the enemy general couldn't sit still, and immediately ordered an elite army to make sure they had a clear understanding of the situation in the besieged city, especially keeping an eye on Xiao Lue and the white-faced civil servants beside him—yes, it was success Song Wen who was thinking about cooking on the city wall every day!

The enemy's teeth were itching with hatred. Song Wen stood on the city wall and looked at the boiling cauldron. Not satisfied, he couldn't help but sighed: "It would be great if there were pigs, cattle and sheep. I still have to eat meatballs for Oden cooking."

Xiao Lue doesn't understand oden cooking, but he understands pigs, cattle and sheep.

In the entire Dali Dynasty, and even in all the neighboring countries, there was no one who specialized in raising pigs and sheep. Ordinary people only raised one or two pigs at home. If they had three pigs in their family, they would already be quite wealthy.Even those who have Zhuangzi at home can't raise it to a large scale. They usually heal a few heads, and if they eat one, they just raise it.

But there is one place where there are absolutely herds of pigs - that is the army.Especially during the war, the pigs were raised behind the camp. After all, soldiers can't just eat dry food, they must eat some meat to have the strength to fight.

There is no trapped city, but there is definitely one where the enemy camps.

Xiao Lue thought about it, and asked Ah Wu and the others to find out where the pigs and sheep were raised in the enemy camp, and asked Song calmly: "My firecrackers have been made, but what is the specific effect? Try it in the city. I will recruit a hundred people tonight, bring firecrackers, and sneak out of the city to test the power of firecrackers."

Song Wen nodded: "Since that's the case, I'll take out the remaining chicken and duck skeletons and fry them up at night to attract attention. So that the enemy won't notice your tracks."

"Okay." Xiao Lue agreed, and went back to prepare the firecrackers for tonight's action.

When night fell, Song Wen ordered people to light torches around the city wall, instantly illuminating the entire city.When the besieged soldiers saw Song Wen appearing with a cauldron behind him, their hearts skipped a beat, thinking about what would happen tonight.All of them lost their fighting spirit in an instant, raised their heads wearily, and defended the city in despair.

Song Wen also disappointed them. An oil pan was set up on the city wall tonight, and the skeleton wrapped in a layer of flour was thrown into the huge oil pan and rolled up and down. The aroma was cruel and ravaged the enemy.But the defenders of the besieged city can take turns to get a skeleton one by one, and you and I will eat happily at the enemy.

Suffering here.

Xiao Lue obtained Ah-Wu's approval, and as soon as night fell, he took a dozen or so horses and walked out of the city.Tonight, Song Wen has attracted too much attention, so the city gates here will inevitably be loose.

Taking advantage of their slackness, the archers on the city wall pressed the formation, Xiao Lue and the others hung the rope and forced their way down.They are all good fighters. Under such circumstances, they went down the city wall very quickly, and directly killed a way out of the slack enemy army.

They are for going out, and they are all skilled and flexible, so they are very happy to fight out.When the enemy army got the news and came to support in a hurry, Xiao Lue and his dozen or so people had already disappeared.

The lieutenant general of the enemy army was resentful, saying that there must be insufficient food and grass in the city, and the front side of the city gate was just a bluff.Immediately go back and report to the general, and send more people to guard the gates of the city. They must not be allowed to come out again, of course, don't even think about going in!

Under the leadership of Ah Wu, Xiao Lue and the others went straight to the camp where the enemy raised pigs and sheep, and threw the bamboo tube and firecrackers into the pigsty from a distance. Mars exploded with a bang!

In the pigsty, the pigs in the pigsty were so frightened that they groaned and exchanged, their hooves plowed the ground, and they were very irritable in the pigsty.

"What's going on?" the guard called out.

In an instant, there were bamboo firecrackers attacking from all directions. They thought it was an enemy attack, so they blocked it with knives. The bamboo firecrackers hit the blade and cracked.Xiao Lue stood in the distance, staring at the chopped bamboo tube, and the bamboo tube that hadn't been blasted at that time, and shot a long burning arrow. For a while, there was a crackling sound beside the pigsty, and the dust and smoke filled the air!

The pigs were completely frightened and went crazy. They slammed into the pigsty with their heads covered.

The guards were also dizzy from blowing up the bamboo tubes and firecrackers, so they didn't care about the pigs.Those who had no choice but to save their own lives, fled privately, and ran out of the pigsty, immediately noticed Xiao Lue and the others.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Pigs screaming and people screaming next to the enemy's pigsty, bamboo tubes exploded violently, it was so lively!
