The reason why we chose flour as the main military ration this time is because the cooking method of rice is relatively simple. It is usually cooked into rice or porridge and eaten. There are far less varieties than flour, especially some that can be used as rice.

It can also be used as a dish.

For example, because of Li Anran’s foodie nature, various stuffed buns, shaomai, and sesame seed cakes appeared in the Tang Dynasty in advance. There are also baguettes, pancakes, and other varieties that will not go bad after a month. It can be said that

There are many types and each has its own advantages.

Some people may say that this rice can also be made into rice balls, sushi, rice noodles, etc. Well, it is indeed possible, but not to mention the trouble of making, these foods are far inferior to dead noodles in terms of storage time.

Such cakes take longer to come.

In addition to the three staple foods of wheat flour, corn flour and rice, Li Anran also asked Hu Ling'er to order a large number of ham sausages. As a result, the other party thoughtfully ordered four varieties of beef, pork, chicken and fish.

At the same time, these four kinds of ham are divided into four different flavors: sweet, salty, spicy, and spicy. In fact, the taste can be divided into more, but in Li Anran's opinion, four varieties can be produced.

The four flavors are generous enough.

Of course, considering that these things are only used as military rations, the quality does not follow the high standards of a certain brand of king of kings. As for the problem of excessive starch content, I believe ordinary soldiers will not care.

However, in order to ensure that Tang Dynasty's use of troops against the Turks would not be affected by his stinginess, Li Anran did not forget to ask Hu Ling'er to order a batch of salty goods and bacon, such as bacon, sausages, salted chicken, etc.

Good meat for storage.

With these salty meats, not only can the soldiers supplement their nutrition and physical strength, but they can also supplement the most critical substance, which is salt!

Although salt is a common basic seasoning in modern time and space, its status in ancient times was obviously much more important.

Regarding this thing, Li Anran also had a very special and speechless experience.

When Li Shimin arranged for a battalion to be stationed near Xiaoyao Villa to act as guards and monitors, Li Anran took Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun more than once to the military camp to "discuss with the soldiers"

”.

As a result, when I went back there for the first time, I accidentally chatted with the soldiers there and learned that salt is actually very rare. Especially when marching and fighting, it is easy to be in short supply due to various reasons, so there are

Sometimes you can only use vinegar cloth.

Especially in recent years, the Turks have been incessant and have invaded the territory every year. They commit burning, killing and looting. The trade routes are cut off. The salt from Shandong cannot be transported in, and the salt ponds on the grassland cannot be mined. Therefore, Zuowuwei is stationed on the Longshi side.

.There is a shortage of salt every year.

As for the vinegar cloth, Li Anran was also curious at first that it was a magical thing that could actually replenish salt. As a result, it was okay not to ask, but when someone took out the vinegar cloth, he was almost overtaken by the smell of this thing.

Vomited it out on the spot.

The so-called vinegar cloth originally refers to the cloth used to filter vinegar. But here, it is a different matter.

If you have watched ancient Japanese movies, you may have noticed that in many cases, ancient Japanese soldiers or wandering monks would wear bamboo hats. The function of this thing is not limited to sun protection, but it can also be used as a container for eating and a seasoning jar.

Eating containers are easy to understand. Who would bring a bowl with them when going out? I usually wear a hat on my head to protect myself from the sun. When I need it, I can use it as a rice bowl. As for the spice jar, it is because after people sweat, some salt will

Leave it on the bamboo hat.

Therefore, when eating with a bamboo hat, it can invisibly supplement the salt. Of course, this taste has absolutely nothing to do with deliciousness. The vinegar cloth used by the Tang Dynasty army, although it is two things, in principle

But it's almost the same.

Therefore, every time he thought of those soldiers who had to eat the "salt" condensed from their own sweat to replenish their salt, Li Anran felt that he instantly lost his appetite. Fortunately, with the advent of filtration technology, Datang's salt industry

There has indeed been significant development in this regard.

At least when fighting in other places, when you encounter those salt mines that are so bitter and poisonous that they eat dead people, you no longer have to just look at the salt and sigh like before, but you can use filtration technology to produce edible salt.

, and it’s also fine salt.

With these salts as supplies, not only the soldiers fighting on the front line were freed from the nausea and helplessness of vinegar cloth, but at the same time, these processed salts also greatly alleviated the need for salt in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, and

It plays a role in regulating salt prices.

Of course, this approach has greatly affected the interests of those families who control the price of salt. Fortunately, although Li Shimin did not "clean up" the salt industry on a large scale due to some reasons, he was quite concerned about salt for military supplies.

Tough.

In addition, due to Li Anran's foodie nature, various cured meats and salty goods began to become popular in the Tang Dynasty. The problem of salt and meat used in the army being difficult to store for a long time can be said to be solved to a large extent, and it played a great role.

function.

It is a pity that even with Li Anran's (adjustment) (teaching) and support, Datang's agriculture and animal husbandry still could not form an agricultural system like modern time and space in just two years or so. In addition,

The output and procurement convenience are naturally far less convenient than purchasing directly in modern times.

While Hu Ling'er was purchasing the military supplies that Li Shimin would use this time, Li Anran, who returned to modern time and space, was not idle either. First, he met with his classmates, friends and employees, where they should meet, where they should eat, and where they should show off.

Lower sense of presence.

Then he returned to the multi-functional exploration spacecraft still parked in the asteroid belt, and asked about the progress of resource mining and material and equipment production. He was especially concerned about the resources used to manufacture the God's Domain spacecraft.

In fact, after he broke the idea of ​​​​dark under the lamp and decided to assemble a colonial ship in the Tang Dynasty under the suggestion of the central intelligence Cortana, Li Anran took the lead in letting the multi-functional exploration ship put those basic equipment on it.

The front of the manufacturing sequence.

After all, the type and quantity of materials used for a huge colonial ship are quite huge. If the multi-functional exploration ship is just to directly manufacture parts and then assemble them in the Tang Dynasty, God knows it will only be built in the year of the monkey.

With those basic equipment in place, although some key things still have to be completed by the multi-functional exploration ship, at least the manufacturing work of basic materials can be offloaded, thus saving time.

At the same time, these equipment, especially the manufacturing and production equipment of basic raw materials, are not limited to providing resources for colonial ships. The previous gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, swords, armor and other materials can also be handed over to these equipment.

However, the spaceship Li Anran is paying attention to this time is not the colonial ship named "Starting Point". Instead, he suddenly borrowed the content from a certain science fiction TV series and created one for himself.

A ship similar to a palace.

The American drama "Stargate" that inspired Anran Lee is actually quite "old", and some of the special effects and settings in it are indeed a bit outdated, but for a science fiction fan, this American drama is still absolutely amazing

The classics are yellow.

As for the prototype of the Dominion spaceship, it is based on the city starship that was abandoned in ancient times on an alien planet in "Stargate: Atlantis", the second part of the "Stargate" trilogy.

Landis.

This starship is not so much a spaceship as it is a small city. The majestic shape and various advanced black technologies, even though it is not large in terms of volume, give people the impression that it is

But it is not comparable to ordinary spaceships.

It just so happened that Li Anran was originally thinking that just one colonial ship was far from meeting his needs in the Tang Dynasty. Since he was going to do it, why not make it bigger? So he asked the central intelligence Cortana to make a plan based on Art.

The Landis was designed.

After the Atlantis, which was originally about five kilometers in diameter, was directly expanded to 20 kilometers, other aspects were also redesigned. In terms of scale alone, the Divine Domain is much larger than the Starting Point.
