Chapter 1351
When did poor Mao Shisan eat sweets?I have chewed sorghum stalks before, and picked honeycombs desperately with my friends, and I didn't even dare to think about maltose.The first bite seemed to be so sweet that his pores would open. He closed his eyes and poured the sugar porridge into his mouth one mouthful at a time. Breaking into the fairy world, the gods hosted an unheard of banquet, and hundreds of years have passed when you come back. What is the final ending?That lucky person must have returned to the fairyland.

After breakfast, it was already dawn, and the fat chef went down to get his bean sprouts. Most of the time, this was the only vegetable. In order to adjust the taste, there were three kinds of soybean sprouts, mung bean sprouts and germinated beans.The two boys were sweating profusely cleaning the kitchen and tableware.Then use a hand pump to press sea water up to rinse the lunch box, and scrub the cleaned lunch box with fresh water.Fresh water is very precious when sailing, and the chief steward has a ration for how much fresh water is used to wash and how many lunch boxes.

But now on the Yalu River, it doesn’t matter, the cooking utensils also need to be cleaned, and the steel is afraid of rust, and if there is floating rust, it must be carefully polished off, especially the corners, which need to be rubbed with a special small cotton swab, and wiped after washing There is no drop of water, and then oiled with a piece of half-cooked fat pork.The kimchi jars, salted egg baskets, rice bags, and unused coal in the kitchen must be returned to their original positions.If there is no oil stain, it will be shiny, and even the spoons in the seasoning jar must be facing the same direction. After cleaning, the deputy captain in charge of the ship will come to check it.

After the inspection was over, they began to boil the water.Fu Ji would add lime juice to the water in proportion. At first, Mao Shisan thought it was to cover up the smell in the water that had been stored for a long time, but Fu Ji said no. There is a kind of elixir in the lime juice. It will destroy the good things in the juice, so the boiled water must be cooled, but it should not be too cold. When it reaches the temperature that can be swallowed, pour warm boiled water into it.

Mao Shisan was in charge of running errands for the blended water, and buckets of water were sent to the deck and the insulation buckets in the cabins—there was no limit to the supply of fresh water when they were docked, and they could drink as much as they liked.

"The chief really treats the soldiers as masters." Fu Ji secretly said to Mao Shisan.

After delivering the water, Mao Shisan clutched his belly and dived into the open-air toilet at the bow.Originally he was wearing thin clothes, and when he took off his trousers, the cold wind blew straight from left to right, up and down, causing him to shiver, and he froze hard while flying in the air, and made a thumping sound when he landed on the thin ice.After defecating as fast as possible, he cleaned up luxuriously with paper. When Mao Shisan lifted his trousers and ran to carry the bucket, he was stopped by the first officer: "I'm watching you, why don't you wash your hands after defecating?" Touch the kitchen utensils?"

Probably because he finally caught an active criminal, the first officer who was on duty as a star officer began to explain the doctrine at length, and some familiar sailors made faces at Mao Shisan behind him.It wasn't until the punishment was mentioned that the second officer remembered that the person in front of him was not an officer of the ship: "Go away, I'll let you taste the cat's tail whip if you catch it next time."

Mao Shisan didn't dare to contradict him, so he ran back to the toilet and followed Fu Ji's instructions, and spent half a minute washing each finger carefully with soap.The clear water was icy cold, and the wind was bitterly cold. When Mao Shisan rushed back to the kitchen, he was already half frozen to death.Holding the reluctant Oscar, he baked by the stove for a long time before he felt that the ice shell had melted all over his body. "It's still good at home." Mao Shisan moaned comfortably.

"Let's go to the sauna today." Fu Ji also finished cleaning up here.

"No, I'm not going..." Mao Shisan's face became bitter when he heard that he was going to take a "sauna". "I must die."

"This is the military regulation, do you dare not go?" Fu Ji knew that Mao Shisan would immediately surrender as soon as he got the "military regulation".

"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go."

The sauna on Duozhi Island was built under the personal supervision of Xue Ziliang, and it is made of simple dry stones.During the winter training in Jeju Island, the special investigation team often used sauna to exercise soldiers and improve their resistance.

Since the Haitian is going to rest on Dazhi Island for a period of time, it is also a kind of "exercise" for everyone to take a sauna.And so the bathroom was opened.

Mao Shisan screamed, and was thrown into the cold river again by a few sailors who laughed lewdly and raised their hands and feet, shouting "one, two, three."

In the early spring, there were ice floes on the Yalu River, and the water was bitingly cold. The moment Mao Shisan fell into the river, he almost shrunk his dick in his stomach.

In this way, the "bath" of smoking in a stone house and then throwing it into ice water will come once every two or three days.It was the first time to enjoy this treatment. Mao Shisan thought it was a "disarming power" and a "killing stick" when he "joined the group". All the living Fu Ji are like this, only then did they realize that this is the usual way of bathing for "Tai O people".

"Is this called taking a bath? Execution is right." He would mutter every time he crawled out of the river.No matter how many times he has been washed, he still can't get used to this kind of "punishment"-although washing now is not as cold as the first time.

"Slowly you won't be afraid of the cold." Fu Ji threw the towel and coat to him, "You will know the benefits after washing more."

Mao Shisan didn't know the "benefits" of steaming on the ice first. He was about the same age as Fu Ji, but he also knew that "it's better to be a teacher first". The real leader who is paid for his salary is much better than his "black account" who has been taken in.So I never dared to refute the words of this little friend.

Following Fu Ji's example, Mao Shisan first dried his whole body with a towel and put on the old uniform that was supposed to be reduced to a cannonball.The cotton uniforms that were going to be used to wipe the gun bores had been worn out for a long time, and they were not suitable for Fu Ji. They wore thick and strong coats that felt fluffy to the touch, so the captain of the Haitian issued another one. The refugee cotton jacket was given to him.Wear the uniform over the outside as a smock.

The clothes are not heavy, but Mao Shisan, who has not worn a decent cotton coat for many years, is already warm to the heart.Strange to say, after taking this bath often, my whole body feels comfortable, and my muscles and bones feel relaxed.My body is always warm, I don't know why?

He buttoned it up and asked Fu Ji, "I'm going to make lunch soon, right?"

Fu Ji laughed: "You just know how to eat, it won't hold you to death!" He waved his hand, "Let's go. Let's wash the vegetables. We have to make some preparations for dinner."

As soon as he heard that the cooking was going to start, Mao Shisan hurriedly followed.

Their job is to wash vegetables.Fubo Army attaches great importance to the supply of vegetables, and will try to supply fresh vegetables whenever possible.The only vegetables that can be stored on the Haitian are potatoes and onions.And it's pretty much exhausted these days.Therefore, the vegetables they used to park on Duozhi Island were confiscated from Zhenjiang Fort and nearby forts under the rule of Hou Jin.

In the bitter cold of the world of ice and snow, the only vegetables that can be supplied in winter are stored Chinese cabbage and radish.Although the local defenders received orders to "do their best to supply", they really couldn't supply any good things.Fortunately, Chinese cabbage and radish are also delicacies for the sailors who have been drifting at sea for a long time, bean sprouts and potatoes every day.

On the shore of Dazhi Island, a temporary trestle bridge was erected in the upstream waters of the Haitian, where the water for the boat was taken and washed on weekdays.There is a temporary water intake point and a filter to filter the river water.

The vegetables were shipped from Zhenjiang Fort just a few days ago. In addition to cabbage and radishes, there are sometimes frozen game such as roe deer and deer.Fu Ji often has to clean up and decompose these "meat corpses" on the river beach.Mao Shisan also came to help.When he was sitting on the trestle bridge cleaning vegetables, the Eight Banners cavalry patrolling on the bank of the river was clearly visible—this was the first time he had observed these enemies so closely and calmly.

Mao Shisan had never seen a real Tartar before, but he had heard many stories about how cruel and ruthless they were from his adoptive father, military households, and people who had fled from Houjin. A sense of fear was deeply imprinted in my mind.When the Haitian anchored at Duozhi Island and the Tazi cavalry came to visit, Mao Shisan was so frightened that he almost peed his pants.

When he heard that the Haitian ship was originally in the Yalu River, not far from the Tartars' Zhenjiang Fort, Mao Shisan even wanted to die—isn't this a self-inflicted trap?It's a pity that I haven't had enough to eat!

Unexpectedly, after a battle on the riverside, more than 200 Tartar cavalry were defeated, and the whole ship was opened for several days with the dead horses and horse meat left behind.Moreover, after the war, the Haitian specially pulled its anchor to Zhenjiang Fort to find the Tartars' bad luck, and a cannon blast caused the Tartar guards to come out to ask for peace.From then on, Mao Shisan felt that the Eight Banners had nothing to fear.They will die even if they are shot, and if they die too many people, they will flee for their lives, and if they lose a battle, they will have to subdue—but now they are almost all the vegetables and meat on the ship.

Every time the newly delivered vegetables were checked by the sanitation staff on board, although Zhenjiang Fort sometimes sent some dried mushrooms and the like, the sanitation staff never allowed them to eat them, and they were thrown directly into the hearth of the sauna as a substitute. Burning with firewood - this made Mao Shisan very distressed. In the past, if he could get some mushroom soup, it would be the best delicacy.

While chatting, the two of them cleaned the soil from the cabbage and radish.There seems to be a lot of dishes to be washed today, and there are things on the beach that are rarely seen on weekdays: a whole mouthful of butchered cattle.

"Today the Tartar officials are so generous!"

"Great fart, it's because they didn't dare not show it, otherwise we will kick Zhenjiang Fort, and even if the Tartar officials can escape their lives, they will lose their heads." Fu Ji shook his head and said, "Huang The Chief is coming back from their capital soon, and Chief Xue said that he will cleanse him up and give everyone a treat—we are going back soon.”
