May is the time of Sophora blossom, these small, white flowers, blowing in the breeze under the Buddha fall to the ground, fragrant overflowing.

Bai's mother said to Yuxi, "madam, I learned how to make Huaihua rice from Yu's mother. Would you like to have a taste of it?" If there are several kinds of dishes on the table, it's easy to get tired of them. So in the past two years, Bai's mother not only learned from master man and Master Yu, but also from others. Try to make Yuxi's dining table more colorful.

Yuxi said with a smile: "at noon, fry a plate to try."

This Huaihua rice is a special snack in Shanxi and other areas. I don't know how Mrs. Yu learned it. However, the method of this rice is also simple, that is, first mix the locust with flour, add salt and pepper noodles, etc., and then steam them in the pot. Steam well, bring it out, mix with cooked oil, add some sesame oil, sprinkle with onion, soy sauce and other seasonings, then mix well, you can eat.

At noon, Yuxi ate a few mouthfuls, but she didn't like the taste. It's the cloud engine that has finished the whole dish, and it's still in the air.

Yuxi said with a smile: "if you like, let them make Huaihua dumplings at night?" If you eat too much food, no matter how delicious it is, it's better to eat in different ways.

It's good to work at home. There's no food to say. If he hadn't insisted on practicing sword every morning and evening, he would have been fat: "even if the dumplings were gone, they'd still fry Huaihua rice at night. Xu Wu and Xu Daniu both like to eat, fry more."

Yuxi nodded: "good." Xu Wu and Xu Daniu and others, Yuxi does not know what they like to eat. Anyway, no matter what they do in the big kitchen, they all have delicious food.

In the evening, Feng Dajun's bodyguard Er Mao came back and said to Yun Qing, "general, most of the stolen food has been recovered." Not only did the grain come back, but the money gained by the bandits also fell into the hands of Feng Da Jun.

Yun Qing was not surprised by the result, because he told Feng Dajun to act according to circumstances. The so-called act according to circumstances means that if there are too many bandits with strong fighting capacity, they will be forced to return the grain, otherwise, they will be killed directly. Yun Qing asked, "are there any casualties?"

Er Mao said, "there are no serious injuries. There are more than 60 minor injuries. We only killed those who resisted, and let go of those who didn't Speaking of this, er Mao quickly explained: "the Qianhu adults said that the bandits who did not dare to resist were all the people nearby. They were forced by the government to go up the mountain to fight. This time they robbed us of our food, but they were desperate because they would starve to death without food. " If you can survive, how dare you rob the northwest army of food and grass? It's pure death.

Yun Qing frowned and said, "when can I get to Yucheng?" I have always heard Yuxi talk about the corruption of official administration. This time I have a direct feeling. Last year, it was a good year. Under normal circumstances, people's lives are no problem. But now they are robbing the northwest army of food, which shows how bad the situation is.

Er Mao said, "you can get there in half a month at most." It took only eight days for 600 elite soldiers to go to Longxian County, fully armed and riding day and night. It's easy to go there, but when you come back with hundreds of thousands of stone grain, the speed will slow down naturally.

The cloud Qing ordered and waved to let Er Mao go down. After thinking about it for a while, he went to the backyard and told Yuxi about it: "340000 stone grain, 16000 stone loss."

Yuxi was not interested in the damaged grain. She asked, "I heard that there were nearly two thousand bandits in Longxian county. With six hundred people in Fengda army, they dare to invade other people's stronghold?" This bold color is not so big.

Cloud Qing laughed, a face of pride, said: "this group of bandits is just a mob, the army to bring but the elite Dingbei army. It's no problem to block ten by one, not to mention that they haven't been on guard when the army leads the attack. " Feng's army led the troops to attack. These people are still eating and drinking spicy food. They are very happy.

Yuxi said: "it's the northwest army that has a strong fighting capacity. If Chen Yu had led the northwest army that day, even if there were twice as many bandits in maloshan, they would have been exterminated. " It's not the bandits that have such a strong fighting capacity.

Cloud engine said: "if I lead the troops, as long as 3000, we can kill the bandits in Malo mountain." It's not a big story. The northwest army has a strong fighting capacity and good equipment. It's not a problem to have one enemy and three.

Yuxi gently shakes her head. The northwest army is always at a disadvantage in fighting with the North captives, which makes her think that the northwest army's fighting ability is only average. But now he knew that it wasn't the northwest army that couldn't do it, it was the northern captives that were too strong. However, Yuxi didn't plan to talk to Yunqing about this, so Yunqing didn't think that she was destroying her own prestige and carrying people to the North: "is there any disturbance on the way to fengdajun?"

Yun Qing said: "our army has strict military discipline and will not do anything to disturb the people." It was Yuxi who also said this. He wanted other people to have a black face. The military discipline of the northwest army is strict, where will it disturb the people. In fact, Yuxi didn't mean to look down on the northwest army, just asked one more question.

Yuxi nodded and said, "it's worth spreading." It is good for them to let people know that the northwest military discipline is strict.

Yun Qing doesn't understand the significance of Bai Yuxi's doing this.

Yuxi did not explain, but said: "you will know later. But we should do it without leaving any trace. "

Yun Qing's curiosity is not strong all the time. Seeing that Yu Xi doesn't say it, he doesn't ask. He just says, "I don't know if Han Ji's grain purchased from Jiangnan can safely reach Yucheng?" South of the Yangtze River is the big head, and Taiyuan is the small head.

Yuxi said with a smile: "since you are not at ease, send someone to meet you. No more. Just send out three or five hundred people. " Local officials eat people and do not spit up bones. They are too dark. The camp guards in that place are certainly not much better. If the local army is not effective in suppressing bandits, Yuxi thinks that when the time comes, the northwest army will surely be expropriated. If they are really expropriated, they will let the northwest army go out and show up, so that people can see the gap between the local army and the northwest army. You can't get any benefits and earn a good reputation.

Cloud engine considered for a while, said: "five hundred is too conspicuous, three hundred people!" Three hundred people are not many, but they are not few.

When Yunqing returns to the front yard, Yuxi asks people to call Yunshan, the former YINGSHANHONG. YINGSHANHONG was later renamed Yunshan by Yuxi. Giving him the name of Yun also gives him a sense of belonging.

Seeing Yunshan, Yuxi asked, "you often go back and forth to the north. Do you know why the north is so much stronger than the northwest?" During the war, the number of soldiers in the northwest was more than that of the north, but every time there was a frontal confrontation, they had to fall into the disadvantage. It has the natural barrier of Yucheng. Otherwise, it can't stop the northern captives.

Yunshan said: "the northern captives have lived on horseback since childhood, and they also live on nomadic hunting, so we can't compare their riding and shooting."

Yuxi thought for a moment and asked, "what's the difference between what they eat and what we eat?" The northern captives were not only better than the northwest army in riding and shooting, but also in physical fitness.

"They eat cattle, sheep and horse meat, and drink horse milk and goat milk," Yunshan said Mainly meat.

No wonder these people's physical quality is better than that of the Central Plains people. I've been drinking goat's milk since I was a child. I'm naturally in good health. Just like her, she has been drinking mutton since childhood, and her health is better than that of ordinary people.

Yunshan suddenly thought of something and said, "the northern captives are used to drinking horse milk and other things. When they don't drink it during the war, they steam horse milk and sheep's milk into powder. When you want to drink it, you can put it in your skin bag and pour in water to drink it. "

Yuxi blurted out: "you are talking about milk powder?" She had heard the word in her last life, but she didn't know much about the rest.

Yunshan thought Yuxi had heard about it before, nodded and said: "the word milk powder is appropriate. But our people are not used to it. It tastes too strong. " I feel like vomiting when I smell it. I can't drink it.

Yuxi said: "goat's milk is good for your health, and I've been drinking it." However, the milk Yuxi drank was boiled with almonds and chrysanthemums, and sugar was added after the smell was removed. It's just that almonds and sugar are precious things. It's impossible to supply them to the army in large quantities. But chrysanthemums are not expensive.

Thinking of this, Yuxi asked: "you said to order the northwest army to drink goat's milk and horse's milk, can you do it?" It's impossible to eat meat every day, but Yuxi thinks it's not too difficult to provide dairy products. But Yuxi is worried that these people are not willing to drink.

Yunshan said, "there are 100000 people in the northwest army. If everyone drinks every day, it's a lot."

Yuxi said: "not all of them can be provided. Some people can drink them first. It's just that I'm afraid they won't drink it. "

Yunshan said with a smile: "madam, don't worry about this. As long as they know it's good for their health, they will drink it. I can't do it. Let the general give an order. They have to drink if they don't drink. " I'm afraid I can't drink if I want to.

Yuxi said, "take your time. Don't worry." It's not difficult to raise sheep. Many people in Yucheng can raise sheep. The only trouble is that there is no vast grassland outside the Great Wall. It's not realistic to breed in large quantities. However, as long as there is a direction, we will work hard in this direction. One day, everyone will have milk every day.

Yunshan looked at Yuxi and said sincerely, "madam is the lucky star of Yucheng people." He not only took good care of the orphans, but also tried to help improve the life of the soldiers. Having such a general's wife is really a blessing for the 100000 soldiers in Yucheng.

Everyone likes to hear good words. Yuxi is a layman, so he can't avoid it. However, Yuxi is still very modest to say: "it is also to do something within one's ability."

Yunshan said: "madam is too modest. Now the common people in Yucheng don't like the general and his wife. If the marshal sees all this today, he will be very pleased. " It's a pity that the major general married a shallow eyed Xu family. If he also married a virtuous wife like his wife, he would not have fallen into such a field. So it's right to say that the elder should marry a virtuous man.
