The soldiers of the Xia army brought a lot of food, enough to feed more than three hundred Korean workers.
Seeing so many things, the North Korean workers were all looking forward to it.
They didn't just wait around, they were assigned tasks respectively.
"Go some people and bring back some clean snow."
Immediately, more than a hundred Koreans took tools and walked into the inaccessible dense forest.
If you want to boil water in the wild in winter, collecting clean snow is the most convenient way.
All you need to do is put the snow into the pot and it will become edible water after it is burned.
"Go to some more people and pick up some dry firewood."
As for the matter of setting up pots and stoves, the Xia army soldiers did not let these Koreans do it.
Setting up a cooking stove in the wild is a required course for every soldier, and it is far more professional than these Koreans.
It only takes a few stones and some soil to form a simple pot stove.
The firewood was picked up and thrown into the stove. Then, in the eyes of the Korean people, something magical happened.
I saw a soldier take out a small iron box the size of a palm from his pocket, flick it casually, and the lid on it opened.
The North Koreans had no idea what this was and all their eyes widened.
But when they saw a soft crackle and flames coming out, all the Koreans were shocked. A few were timid and even knelt down on the spot.
"General...general, what kind of treasure is this?"
The soldier laughed and lit the paper with a lighter to ignite the firewood.
"This is called a lighter, and it's a fire-starting tool made by our Xia Kingdom. How about it? Is it more convenient than a fire stick?"
Seeing the soldier rubbing his fingers back and forth on a small wheel, and the flames flickering out, all the Koreans were envious.
After just a few days of contact, what these soldiers from Xia Kingdom showed them seemed to be endlessly magical.
Compared with these people, they Koreans seem like savages.
The clean snow was brought back and quickly boiled into water, and the Xia army soldiers began to put instant noodles into the pot.
Seeing the pieces of golden-yellow noodles quickly disintegrating into chewy noodles in the water, the Koreans were very excited.
"I once ate it secretly at Mr. Yangban's house before. The noodles were really delicious. Today we are in for a treat!"
"No, this noodle tastes better than the noodles from Mr. Yangban's house."
When the instant noodles seasoning was also poured into the pot, the hot and fragrant smell spread out, and all the Koreans couldn't help but lean forward.
This is pasta!
It has always been food that only two classes of gentlemen could eat. Unexpectedly, untouchables like them would also have the opportunity to taste it today.
But this is not the end.
Seeing that the noodles were almost cooked, the New Army soldier took the tightly wrapped bag from the side. After opening it, the contents inside looked like dry leaves.
However, the miraculous thing is that when these dried leaves are put into the soup, they quickly unfold and become crystal green.
"Ah...this is green vegetables, green vegetables, you can actually eat green vegetables."
"General, do you know magic? How can there be green vegetables when it's so cold?"
Hearing the exaggerated tone of these Koreans, the Xia army soldiers couldn't help but smile.
"What kind of magic is this? It's just that fresh vegetables were dehydrated and preserved. Now they are boiled in water and restored to their original appearance."
The North Koreans were dumbfounded and did not understand the rationale at all.
But when they think about being able to eat fresh vegetables in winter when everything is dry, these people can't wait.
Still not finished.
The Xia army soldier brought over another square iron box, and even needed a dagger to open the lid.
When the contents were poured out, all the North Koreans went crazy.
"Wow, is this meat?"
"It actually has meat!"
"Can we eat meat too?"
With a pair of green eyes, they saw the Xia Army soldier using a dagger to cut the meat the size of a brick into small pieces like chess pieces and put them into the noodle soup.
At this time, the things cooked in the pot can be described as a dazzling array of meat and vegetables in harmony.
Whether it’s noodles, vegetables, or meat, they are all things that Koreans rarely have access to.
Especially noodles and meat, some people may have never eaten them in their lives.
The Xia army soldiers distributed large iron bowls to these Koreans, then asked them to line up and began to distribute food to them.
These Koreans have never been so well-behaved. No one dared to cause trouble. With nervousness and joy, everyone received a big bowl full of noodles.
Seeing that there were noodles, vegetables, and meat in it, and the soup was so red that they didn’t know what it was made of, these Koreans felt like they were in a dream.
There were even many people who put down their rice bowls first, kowtowed to the Xia army soldiers, and then hurried to the side to taste them carefully.
Put the noodles aside first and take a sip of hot soup.
The wilderness had been blown by the icy cold wind all morning, and everyone was frozen from the inside out. At this time, a mouthful of hot soup entered the mouth and flowed down the esophagus into the stomach.
The magma-like heat spread quickly, with a spiciness that had never been tasted before, making people feel alive immediately.
The stiff fingers had feelings, and the frozen toes could move. It was only at this moment that these people had the realization of being alive.
Ernan held the bowl and cried loudly.
"We actually ate the food of gods! Even if we die, we will be satisfied."
The people next to me echoed.
"From now on, I will never envy those yangban masters. They have never eaten such good food."
A group of Koreans were eating instant noodles and luncheon meat while cursing the yangban masters who did not treat them as human beings.
No one noticed that during this meal, their thoughts had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Everyone was so hungry that even after a big bowl of noodles went into their stomachs, they were still unsatisfied. Some people were unwilling to give in, holding the remaining soup in their hands and taking small sips, not wanting to finish it.
.
Some smart people took out their own cold rice balls and poured them into the noodle soup. When the rice balls soaked in the noodle soup, they turned into delicious rice soup.
"Ah, people in Xia country eat this every day, it's really enviable."
"Why the hell didn't God let me be born in Xia Kingdom? Even if I am a dog in Xia Kingdom, it is better than being a Korean."
With their bellies full and their bodies warm, these Koreans chatted comfortably.
“I don’t know when I can eat such delicious food again?”
Er Nan thought for a while and said to the man: "The generals of Xia State are very kind. As long as we work hard, we will definitely still be able to eat."
His words were recognized by many people.
There was a younger one who was shy and did not dare to talk to the Xia soldiers in the distance, so he asked the elders around him: "I wonder what this delicious food is called?"
No one can answer this question.
Er Nan made a nonsense statement: "These Xia generals call the army troops, I think this kind of food should be called army pot."
When other people heard this, they applauded one after another, and this kind of food has been deeply engraved in their bones.
A few years later, when many people's lives come to the last moment, their only wish is to have another bite of military food, so that their life will be regret-free.
