It has been almost two months since I joined the army as a military officer. Maybe it is really a vacant position. I have never accepted a summons from the army to which I belong. Except for the occasional whim, I went to the Youwuwei headquarters to chat with a few dandy generals.

Apart from spanking, even the specific military deployment of the Youwu Guards is unclear. If there is a war, I am afraid that I will be beheaded countless times if I join the army. Except for a few senior officers with qualifications who are in charge, the so-called Youwu Guards

Wei is like a concentration camp for the children of high-ranking cadres. After coming here a few times, I became very familiar with these people.

One thing I have to admit is that although it is full of officials' children, strict discipline, high-intensity training and sophisticated equipment have allowed the Guards to maintain a first-class combat effectiveness. In the early Tang Dynasty, the officialdom was mostly clean, and the education of the children was also poor.

Very harsh, many people expressed that they would rather serve in the army than go home and be disciplined, which can be seen from the tutoring of officials.

After all, the army is an army, and there is no place where the big men gather together that is not free from chaos. The more disciplined and powerful the army is, the more such messed-up bad guys are. I have only been here twice, and I was just "fucked"

A few shameless guys dragged me to a romantic place on the pretext of admiring my name and building relationships.

There was no "reciting" of poems as expected, and an inseparable relationship with a popular star. He didn't even take a sip of the so-called flower wine and went straight to the topic. It seems that the pragmatic style of the early establishment of the empire has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

, even the "brothel" keeps up with the times. Since we are with soldiers, we have to show our mighty and bold masculinity. I dragged a girl who was not pleasing to the eye and walked into the bridal chamber. I gave her first inside.

I carried out Marxist-Leninist education, and then took some time. I felt that going out now was not enough to prove my prowess, so I talked about the importance of attracting investment and economic construction. It was not until the girl was exhausted by what I said that I paid for the service.

Fei walked out majestically. He received a lot of cheers right out of the door. One of the guys named Cao Xianhuan shouted particularly enthusiastically, which left a deep impression on me.

I didn’t dare to tell the two ladies about this matter. Even Lan Ling kept it secret and only communicated with Cheng Chu privately. After listening to my story, Cheng Chu laughed until he became paralyzed. It turns out that most of the noble children who joined the army were from their own families.

The youngest son, the inheritance of the family is out of reach. They only use the army as a springboard in life. After joining the army, a young boy from a scholarly family can degenerate into a prehistoric beast, but the beast also has to rely on military pay and family resources.

To make a living, the consumption of high-end entertainment venues is astonishing, and you can’t just go if you want to, so a pragmatic scene appeared. Cheng Chu deeply sympathized with my experience and strongly requested to take me, my senior brother, to see the real Holy Land of Fengyue.

I politely declined out of curiosity.

Joining the army as a recorder has some advantages. At least you have the right to know the battle reports from the front. As a paramilitary enthusiast (you can understand it as a paramilitary genius, which seems a bit shameless), you can participate in observing famous historical events from a distance.

, which gave me great satisfaction for my sincere boxing heart.

The primitive communication method separated the fierce fighting in Liaodong from the peaceful Chang'an City. The last battle report came ten days ago. Under the leadership of General Su Dingfang, and with the support and cooperation of Silla friends, the powerful Tang Army continued to fight.

In one victory, more than 40,000 enemies were wiped out and more than 10,000 Baekje Mohe soldiers were captured. Thirteen Silla cities occupied by Baekje have been recovered. Due to the cold weather and out of consideration for the soldiers and horses, the offensive has been stopped and will wait until next year.

After the beginning of spring, the weather will get warmer and we will fight again.

Compared with Liaodong, Qin Yu's repeated deployments were like vacations. From time to time, he would entrust his comrades who returned to Chang'an to bring home letters. Sometimes the letters would also contain Qin Yu's self-study homework. If the letter was sent back and forth, he would still wait for me.

Arrange the homework again and take it away with you.

Looking at the contents of Qin Yu's family letters, they mostly talked about local customs and rarely talked about military matters, just like travel notes; coupled with the neat self-study homework, it was really leisurely. It was the middle of winter, and the bitter cold conditions on the frontier fortress made Tang vomit.

Both armies were unable to stir up trouble, and most of the government soldiers dispatched from the pass stayed in large cities such as Lanzhou and Suzhou for training. They were not assigned specific tasks, but were just a precautionary accumulation of troops as a reserve force.

.Understanding Qin Yu’s current situation made me feel relieved. Although he is eager to fight, the cruelty of the battlefield is unimaginable. I don’t want anything to happen to my good friend.

After all, the papermaking workshop was not completed in time for the arrival of midwinter. Despite Lanling's huge investment regardless of the cost, the amount of the project was still too large for this era. The newly built residential area for craftsmen behind it alone has nearly a hundred acres of land.

Land was occupied. And in the middle of the project, Lanling lost his mind and expanded the scale of the workshop again. I tried to persuade him several times, but to no avail, so I had to give up. Who is the investor? Lanling's mature appearance hides a hidden secret.

With a tough heart, you must work hard to complete the things you set out to achieve. I admire her spirit of never giving up until she achieves her goals. This feeling made me subconsciously keep a small distance from her. Lan Ling seemed to feel this too.

Up to this point, the two of them have always maintained this tacit understanding, which is very subtle.

Ever since I told Lan Ling about my views on the Liaodong war, Lan Ling has been happy to discuss the details of this despicable and shameless strategy with me. This is the advantage of talking on paper. You can speak freely without restriction, and any inappropriate things will be corrected immediately.

, and then re-deduce it until they achieve their strategic intentions. Both people can obtain intelligence on the Korean Peninsula through their own channels, and then integrate it, try many times, constantly find out the mistakes, and make decisions in response to various variables.

Corresponding adjustments. It's very interesting. Lan Ling and I like this game very much. Silently in the fun of virtual backstabbing, we fully explore the dark side of their hearts. Whenever the deduction is successful, the two of them look up and look at each other strangely.

A smile makes me feel comfortable all over.

Time passed so quickly, and I didn’t realize the arrival of the Winter Solstice until Ying asked me what kind of wontons I wanted to eat. These wontons were the dumplings that were commonly eaten in later generations (in the Tang Dynasty, dumplings had become exactly the same as today’s dumplings, and

They are taken out and eaten separately on a plate, but they are still called wontons. In the Song Dynasty, dumplings were called "Jiaoer", which is the etymology of the word "dumplings" in later generations. This writing method was used in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

. It can still be seen in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. The folk custom of eating dumplings during the Spring Festival has been quite popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Dumplings are usually made before 12 o'clock in the evening on New Year's Eve and eaten at midnight, which is the lunar calendar.

At the beginning of the first day of the first lunar month, eating dumplings (which means "Gengsuijiaozi") means "the dumplings are not as delicious as the dumplings". If it were not for the festival, I would have forgotten this thing, which would be a sin worthy of death.

Of course you have to eat mutton stuffed in winter, but considering Ying's rejection of mutton, big meat stuffed radish is also good. As for leeks, I'll ask first.

"Are there any leeks?" I don't know much about vegetables and I don't know if leeks can grow in the cold winter fields.

Ying nodded, "Yes, it was just delivered this morning. It's fresh."

"Then let's have pork with leeks and pork with radish, hehe." Not mentioning the dumplings, I can't wait to mention them. I miss the time when the family was sitting at home making dumplings. When I think of my parents, I feel sad and sad.

I don’t know how they are doing now. I twisted my legs hard to bring myself back to reality, "Second daughter! Go and inform the kitchen that the three of us will make the dumplings ourselves and let them put the fillings and noodles."

Make peace and send them together."

The two girls listened to my instructions and went happily to convey the order.

"Let's go, wash your hands, do it yourself, and have enough food and clothing." I took Ying and washed her hands and went.

On the big kang, stuffing, noodles and small chopping boards are lined up; the two women are rolling out the dumplings, and Ying and I are making the dumplings. The scene is warm. Although Ying comes from a wealthy family, she has been professionally trained and has superb craftsmanship. The dumplings are made from the same mold.

They are average and look exquisite when put together. I am an amateur, and I am qualified just by wrapping them tightly. Things that cannot be held together often happen, and I ask Ying for help from time to time. Moreover, the shapes are different and the rocks are jagged.

When I saw the steaming dumplings being served, I sighed with tears in my eyes, I wish they had spicy food.

"Second daughter, bring me some garlic." It doesn't matter if you don't have spicy food, just garlic.

Ying pushed me next to her and said, "Don't look for me at night, I stink."

----------Dividing line------------------

Dumplings are a kind of food popular in the north and south of my country. They are also known as powder horns, dumplings, Jiaozi, flat food, wontons, etc. According to the "Diet" section of the book "Tongya", because it was made by the Hun family , invented by the Tun family, so the pronunciation was changed to "wonton". This kind of food was mentioned as early as the Three Kingdoms period in the book "Guang Ya" written by Zhang Yi from the Wei state. By the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it had become "wonton". "Everyone eats dumplings". Eating dumplings on New Year's Eve means "Geng Nian Jiao Zi" (good luck in the coming year) and has become a must-have food for the Spring Festival in vast areas in the north and south of my country. Fucha Dunzong of the Qing Dynasty "Yanjing Years" Li described: "At the beginning of every election... no matter rich or poor, no matter how high or low, they all use white flour to make leftover noodles and eat it. It is called cooking and repairing. It is the same across the country. There is no difference. Rich families secretly use gold and silver to make small dishes. Gemstones and other things are hidden in anger to predict success, and if the family eats it, it will be good all year round." It can be seen that eating dumplings on the first day of the Lunar New Year is for good luck in the year. This food custom has been followed down. According to relevant historical data According to research, dumplings as a food to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new began in the Ming Dynasty and flourished in the Qing Dynasty.

Another theory: The original name of dumplings is "Jiao Er", which was first invented by Zhang Zhongjing, a Chinese medical sage.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, disasters were severe in various places and many people suffered from diseases. There was a famous doctor in Nanyang named Zhang Ji, whose courtesy name was Zhongjing.

When the disease was cured, he also had high medical ethics. He treated both the poor and the rich seriously and saved countless lives.

When Zhang Zhongjing was an official in Changsha, he often treated diseases for the people. One year when the local plague was prevalent, he built a big pot at the yamen gate and gave up medicine to save people, which won the love of the people of Changsha. Zhang Zhongjing retired from Changsha and returned to his hometown.

Later, when he walked to the bank of Baihe River in his hometown, he saw many poor people suffering from hunger and cold, and their ears were rotten by the frost. He felt very uncomfortable and determined to treat them. When Zhang Zhongjing returned home, there were so many people seeking medical treatment that he was very busy.

But he always kept in mind the poor people whose ears were rotten by the cold. He imitated the method in Changsha and asked his disciples to set up a medical shed and a big pot on an open space in Dongguan, Nanyang, and open it on the winter solstice to serve the poor.

Medicine cures injuries.

Zhang Zhongjing's medicine is called "Quhan Jiao Er Soup". The method is to boil mutton, pepper and some cold medicine in a pot. After cooking, take these things out and chop them into pieces.

Wrap the dough into ear-shaped "Jiao Er", boil it in a pot and distribute it to the patients begging for medicine. Each person has two Jiao Er and a bowl of soup. After eating the Quhan soup, people feel hot all over the body and their blood is full.

The patient's ears are smooth and warm. After taking it for a while, the patient's rotten ears will be cured.

I highly recommend "Lu Han" by Meng Dongyuan. ISBN: 63012. It's a good book. It's really good!

In addition, I strongly recommend "Smuggling Beauties", ISBN: 65514, a masterpiece of smuggling, a masterpiece.
