The Jinyiwei were extremely efficient, and after about ten minutes, the hall had been quickly arranged.
There is a huge map right in front of you.
There were a few more small tables in the hall, each with four people.
In front of each general there was a bowl of steaming food and a wine jug.
General Mod looked down at the food in the bowl, extremely puzzled.
This food...seems a bit too simple, totally inconsistent with the warm reception of Emperor Dajing...
......
Li Yuanzhao sat in the first seat, waiting for Fang Zhengyi to speak.
The two of them had already discussed it when they came, and he would just play a ceremonial role.
The rest of the work is left to Lao Fang.
Seeing that everything was ready, Fang Zheng walked in front of the crowd and said with a smile, "You are all visiting the Holy City today, and we haven't had time to prepare yet, so the food is a little shabby. Please don't blame me."
"My emperor is frugal and simple, and his diet is as simple as possible. When he goes to war, he lives and eats with the soldiers, so the meals are also simple."
"However, the food we are preparing now is not ordinary food! These are the breakfast rations used by our Dajing soldiers at sea. You are all warriors in the army, and I think you all have your own opinions on rations. Why don't you try our Dajing rations today and make some suggestions for exchange."
"Please enjoy your meal now," Fang Zheng said, raising his hand.
I see! This is Dajing’s military rations. This design is quite interesting.
The generals found it very novel.
We have all been there before, so it doesn’t matter if we have just one meal.
Dajing was actually willing to take the initiative to show the military rations to everyone, which was much more valuable than a big meal.
And the people of Dajing are really honest....
General Mod had a smile on his face and picked up the food from the bowl.
After taking a look, he asked in confusion, "Excuse me, Lord, what exactly is this food? It looks like noodles, but why is it curved?"
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Good question. This is our Dajing specialty, instant noodles."
"The noodles are deep fried to preserve them for a long time, and when they are boiled they become this curved shape. You can see there are other things in the bowl."
General Maude, like everyone else, picked up his fork and swiped the bottom of his bowl twice.
A few meatballs and an egg that seemed to have been fried in oil were turned out.
Fang Zhengyi's voice sounded again: "This is the rations that our Dajing soldiers use after getting up in the morning. It is meatballs, instant noodles, and poached eggs."
Fang Zhengyi did not lie about this.
This meal rich in fat, protein, and carbohydrates is truly military rations.
However, only the two thousand Jinyiwei were qualified to enjoy such a luxurious combination.
These two thousand men are considered the strongest special forces in Dajing, and they need to carry guns and cannons on the battlefield for a long time.
Nutrition cannot be neglected at all.
As for how to keep the fried eggs fresh without a refrigeration device... Mr. Fang spends no less time preparing military rations than weapons.
A series of oil-immersed cans have been specially developed to facilitate long-distance transportation.
...
Meatball instant noodles with poached eggs? This sounds fresh.
Maude looked at the food in the bowl again, lowered his head and took a bite.
As soon as the noodles enter your mouth, a salty and fragrant taste bursts in your mouth, mixed with the aroma of oil and meat.
Take another bite of the poached egg. The poached egg, which has been soaked in oil and water, shocks your taste buds again when you first put it in your mouth.
Maud couldn't help but show horror in his eyes.
This bowl of noodles may look ordinary, but it contains a lot of oil and salt. This kind of food is perfect for replenishing the soldiers' physical strength!
The people of Dajing are so extravagant as to provide their soldiers with such food?
No wonder...No wonder those soldiers look so strong.
Dajing is really rich! This is what he eats for breakfast, and then...
"Marquis Jianye, may I ask what your army's rations are during the rest of the time? Is it all meatballs, instant noodles, and fried eggs?" Mod asked loudly.
Fang Zhengyi smiled slightly: "Otherwise, breakfast has always been the second most sumptuous meal in our army after dinner, in order to wake up in the morning to wake up the fighting spirit and boost energy. Lunch is simpler, just a bowl of noodles with clear soup."
“We had dinner...”
The generals suddenly realized.
That’s right, if they eat so much every day, Dajing’s military expenditure will be very high!
But even so, the food standard is far beyond that of my country...
Everyone began to savor the rations carefully, but some people looked as if they couldn't swallow the food, and it was obvious that they couldn't get used to Dajing's taste.
Fang Zheng observed for a moment and asked, "Is there anything you are not used to eating? If so, please tell us directly. After all, people are shaped by the local climate and soil."
"Everyone here is a hero, you're welcome. I have something important to say next, and I can't let you get hungry and distracted."
As soon as the words fell, one person immediately raised his hand and said, "Marquis Jianye, I can't get used to it."
"Okay! Come on, prepare some more local food for this general." Fang Zheng said, "The rest of you eat first and listen to me."
"I'm sure you all still have doubts in your hearts, why I, Da Jing, suddenly led troops to visit the West, and whether this move will pose a threat to other countries. Today, I can give you a definite answer!"
Fang Zhengyi said in a sonorous voice: "Da Jing is in the west and has only come here to seek peaceful cooperation. The old church is corrupt and has eroded the royal power of various countries, treating ordinary people as cattle and sheep. We, Da Jing, are originally an eastern country and do not want to interfere in local affairs. We only want to trade with you."
"However, things don't go as planned. The old church and its pope forced us to make concessions and interfered with trade with other countries. Dajing tolerated it again and again, but we didn't expect the other party to slander and send troops to attack Dajing's friendly country Feka. It happened that people were dissatisfied, and Pope Soljie was loyal to the classics of the doctrine, followed the will of heaven and people's hearts, and united with Dajing to save the Holy City from danger, which led to the current situation."
