Considering the quality of the food on the march, the entire bandit-suppressing army was quite pleased with Pei Liang.

It was inconvenient for her to be the only woman, so everyone assigned her a separate tent, and diligently drove away insects and boiled water for her, and even found hay to make a bed for her.

Pei Liang could just lay down some clean clothes and go up to sleep. Even Shi Feiyu didn't get this treatment.

Although the conditions are still rough, it's not bad compared to sleeping alone in the wild. At least you don't have to worry about your personal safety.

Pei Liang didn't sleep for two days in a row. He simply washed his head and tied it before going to sleep. He slept deeply all night and woke up the next day with full energy.

I have to admire the advantages of this young body. It is less than twenty years old and can withstand the construction.

Pei Liang woke up for the last time. She packed up her simple tent and went straight to the river.

All the soy milk has been ground, and several large buckets of milky white slurry have been filled.

Pei Liang hurriedly asked people to make a fire, and then called Qiu Sanxiang and Ying Siji: "I heard a lot of chickens crow just now. There must be a lot of pheasants here. The bacon is greasy and not suitable for morning. If you want to eat delicious food, just watch You’re good enough.”

Qiu Sanxiang's archery skills were superb, so sophisticated that they were even a little mysterious, so Pei Liang dared to deliver the mission early in the morning.

After all, it is not easy to hunt enough chickens for so many people.

Qiu Sanxiang smiled confidently: "Wait."

After saying that, he dragged Ying Siji and several other people who were good at riding and shooting into the forest.

Pei Liang turned around and tied two bamboo poles into the shape of an equilateral cross. He also asked someone to fetch burlap and tie them to the four tops of the shelf, forming a large open strainer.

Slowly pour the syrup in, shake it alternately clockwise and counterclockwise, and all the filtered soy milk flows into the bucket.

This kind of thing has no technical content and does not require Pei Liang to do it himself. A few quick hands and feet made two or three more filter buckets and quickly filtered out all the soy milk.

The soy milk was boiled in a pot, and several large bags of bean dregs were filtered out, but Pei Liang had his own uses.

By this time Qiu Sanxiang and the others had returned, each carrying several pheasants and hares. Not only that, Ying Siji opened a bag and found many pheasants in it.

Pei Liang smiled in surprise: "That's great, it tastes even better with this."

After saying that, he asked them to use boiling water to remove the feathers of the chicken and disembowel it. Soldiers who were accustomed to marching and fighting and sleeping in the wilderness were used to doing this. At that moment, several people came out to handle it quickly.

Pei Liang broke the yolks of wild eggs into a large bowl, added oil, sugar, squeezed in some lemon juice picked from the wild vegetables, and stirred quickly to get a large bowl of simple mayonnaise.

They also asked people to take wasabi roots and grind them on a stone to make a paste. Then they mixed it with the wild honey harvested yesterday and added some freshly ground spice powder during the process.

Pei Liang tasted it and found that although it lacked a lot of ingredients, what was rare was the taste and flavor because the freshness of the ingredients was no worse than batch products processed by mature industries.

At this time, everyone had already removed the bones from the chickens and rabbits and chopped only the meat into pieces according to Pei Liang's instructions.

To be honest, pheasant stew soup is okay, but actually eating chicken is a bit too much.

However, there is a method that can make up for this shortcoming.

Everyone saw her mixing bean dregs and minced meat, adding ginger juice and minced green onion, grinding some seasonings such as sansho pepper into it, and kneading and pounding it to make it strong.

Finally, it is in a satisfactory sticky state, and the minced meat and bean dregs are rolled into a cake shape about the size of a child's palm.

Dip a layer of fried flour, coat in egg wash, and add a layer of fried rice flour, then deep-fry in the already heated lard made yesterday.

The oil pan will make a sizzling sound when it is pressed, and the rich aroma of chicken mixed with grains in the fried food will dissipate in a moment.

How many people in this world can refuse fried food? Foods high in sugar and oil are choices made by human genes during evolution.

If this is the case in modern times where people have no worries about food and clothing, let alone the ancient times when people were short of food and clothing.

The people who had packed their bags gulped at the smell, and were ordered by Pei Liang to take some wild vegetables and wash them in the river.

"Remember to shake off the water."

After the meatloaf was fried, it was distributed to everyone, and everyone scooped up the soy milk with honey.

Some people couldn't wait any longer and took a bite. The outside was crispy and oily, while the inside bursted with tender chicken-flavored gravy.

No one thinks that rough things like bean dregs are very delicious on weekdays. The essence has been squeezed out, and the rest is just for food.

Who would have thought that the fragrant bean flavor and chewy texture filling the mouth would make people sweat happily.

Pei Liang put the pot of honey mustard sauce on the table and said to everyone: "It will taste better if dipped in this sauce and served with wild vegetables.

There was no reason why everyone didn't believe it. When they thought that such a delicious meatloaf could be so delicious, everyone was quick and slow for fear of being snatched away.

Sure enough, the sauce has a strange spicy taste, but because it is balanced by honey and mayonnaise, it is not too overbearing. When it is dipped on the meat patties, the already crispy and juicy meat patties have a rich flavor.

Several levels.

Then use wild vegetables to sandwich it. Usually, those wild vegetables don't feel bad when eaten raw. They have a slight astringent taste. The astringent taste combined with the aroma of fried food is simply amazing.

Those are delicious foods beyond their knowledge.

Even people like Shi Feiyu and Ying Siji, who have tasted delicious food, thought this sauce was rare.

It's a bit weird, their bodies don't have similar taste memories, but it's quite amazing.

Of course, there are also people who can't stand the smell of wasabi, even the not overbearing pure wasabi puree.

After breakfast, with physical and mental satisfaction, the bandit suppressing troops broke out of camp and set off.

In the past few years, due to the chaos in various places, the imperial court was overwhelmed and did not have that much energy to pay special attention to the banditry.

The reason why this 500-man army was sent out was because the tribute was robbed last month, and the emperor was furious and wanted to clear the tribute road.

It can be seen from this that this dynasty is hopeless. At this time, the most important thing is still to maintain access to enjoyment.

With the imperial edict, Shi Feiyu can recruit local soldiers wherever he goes and have full control over them. His power is not small.

After marching for several days, Pei Liang took good care of the stomachs of hundreds of soldiers. It was both efficient and delicious, and every meal was almost never repeated.

Therefore, Shi Feiyu gave her more and more authority, and she could even temporarily leave the team with Qingqi when necessary.

For example, when passing through a village or county town, the army will not stop and delay, but Pei Liang can take a few people to quickly go back and make purchases, as long as the purchased items do not hinder the march.

Because they had good food every day and had hope for every meal, the soldiers were highly motivated in whatever they did.

When they arrived at the first bandit-infested area, everyone, under Shi Feiyu's tactical coordination, cleared out the bandit's nest which still had the advantage of terrain.

During the inventory, I didn't react much to the looted money and treasures, but my eyes were dazzled by the various wines, meats and ingredients hidden in the bandit's den, including the cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks raised in the back mountain.

"This is delicious, give it to Chef Pei."

"This is delicious too. Send it to Chef Pei."

"Mom, this is delicious. Is it worthy of a bunch of bandits? Bah! Send them all to Chef Pei."

Therefore, during the process of suppressing the bandits, in addition to military orders, everyone took the initiative of "making trouble in the kitchen and adding food".

Shi Feiyu was also proficient in the art of controlling his subordinates, and was entrusted with an important task for the first time, but he was born without a teacher to know how to mobilize the enthusiasm of the soldiers.

So every time the bandit-suppression army arrived at a bandit den, the thoughts in everyone's minds could almost be seen from their expressions.

[Did you see that bandit’s den? You see it is a bandit’s den now, and it is actually the canteen where we will have extra meals tonight.]

Pei Liang cooperated with Shi Feiyu's strategy and naturally tried his best at this time.

Although it is not stated explicitly, after a few times, everyone knows that after clearing the bandits' den, they will enjoy a meal as good as the gods.

Those fierce bandits are not bandits anymore, they are just points coupons for their tooth ceremony. Once they are full, you can start eating.

Due to the unprecedented enthusiasm of the experienced and brave soldiers, the mission along the way went smoothly.

Most of the time, the government troops where the bandits are located are not of much use. When a dynasty has exhausted its strength, the fester must start from the top down.

However, in the end, most of the bandits were a mob. In ancient times, iron weapons were strictly controlled. From the equipment and weapons to the combat strength, they could not compare with the elite army selected by Shi Feiyu himself. Most of the time, they even did not have an advantage in numbers.

Even relying on the convenience of the terrain, it's just a matter of how long the resistance lasts. So far, we haven't encountered any troublesome bandit dens.

At this time, Pei Liang was getting closer and closer to Jiangnan.

On this day they traveled to Kaili Prefecture and stopped in a bandit-infested area.

There was an insect infestation here last year, and today the people are having a hard time. If the capital is relatively rich, and you can use local materials to improve your food while walking, then the farther you go from the capital, the less you can expect to find all the ingredients.

Those places that are still passable are okay, but some are almost to the point of selling their children to prostitutes, and it would be difficult to grow a single blade of grass from the entire mountain.

This is also the reason why soldiers are more and more keen on suppressing bandits in the kitchen.

The governor of Kaili Prefecture is quite kind. After the insect disaster last year, he actively provided disaster relief and the results were good. Therefore, although the place looks desolate and impoverished, it is not that people are starving everywhere.

Since there was no source of ingredients in the past two days, eating was much simpler, and the soldiers, whose faces were all glowing with delicious food, felt a little uncomfortable.

When the sun was about to set, Ying Siji and the others who were running ahead to explore the road came back and said excitedly: "There is a village ahead, let's go buy some meat and vegetable seasonings?"

Shi Feiyu glanced at the surrounding terrain, with a flash of thoughtfulness in his eyes.

He looked at Pei Liang and saw that her eyes were also focused on certain places, and he understood that she was probably thinking the same thing as him at the moment.

To be honest, even though he followed him as a cook and fought against bandits several times along the way, he found that working with Pei Liang was particularly easy, and he even had a high level of understanding in a short period of time.

Shi Feiyu has been very talented since he was a child, and it is difficult for people around him to keep up. But when facing Pei Liang, the other party not only knew what he was planning in an instant, but even cooperated with him early.

If she is, she must know exactly what to do now.

So he nodded: "You go ahead and bring a few more people with you."

Ying Siji took Pei Liang and several soldiers and rode quickly into the village, while the others began to set up camp.

The village was somewhat dilapidated. Pei Liang and his entourage, leading horses and wearing military uniforms, made the villagers nervous as soon as Fang entered the village.
