Pei Wei and several soldiers in iron armor stood at the entrance of the village, standing like a mountain. The mountain wind blew, his cloak flew, and his strong body looked particularly majestic. Li Rui walked out of the village quickly and happened to see this scene, and couldn't help but secretly admire:

What a great clothes rack! This looks and figure are put into the twenty-one world to be a male model. I wonder how many rich women have to fall into his hands!

He stepped forward and bowed and asked with a smile: "Brother Pei, good evening!"

Yes, he was only concerned about making all the messy things, and it was already evening before he knew it.

Pei Wei hadn't encountered such a strange way of greeting, so he couldn't help but be stunned. Then he gave a greeting and said, "Brother Li, you're good evening too."

Li Rui said: "Didn't you take office early in the morning? Why did you have time to visit my broken camp?"

Pei Wei said: "I have been busy all day and finally managed the mess. I was worried that Brother Li, you can't help but be able to suppress those veterans who are slipperier than loaches, so I come and have a look!"

Li Rui said: "Brother Pei, you are intent... haven't eaten yet? Come in and eat together, how about it?"

Pei Wei said: "It's very good."

So Li Rui led the way and led Pei Wei and his group into the camp. It was already dinner time, and buckets of food were carried out, and they were surrounded by the already hungry soldiers. In order to get the meal first, some military forces even fought and the entire military camp was in chaos. Pei Wei looked at it: "Brother Li, you have been in office for a day, why is this soldier still not having any rules at all?"

Li Rui looked at the soldiers who were grabbing food, shrugged and said, "Let them go, it's harmless."

Pei Wei frowned and said, "How can the military discipline be scattered? If you encounter a Hu people attacking at night, wouldn't you be in a mess before fighting and collapse without fighting? How can this be done!"

Li Rui sighed: "Do you think I don't want to control it tighter? There is really nothing I can do. Now I am alone and have no one to listen to me, so how can I control them!"

Pei Wei looked contemptuous: "I can't control this anymore? What about the ruthlessness you were when you met the Hu people? As long as you took out half of the ruthlessness you met the Hu people, you can clean them up and obediently!"

Li Rui rolled his eyes: "It seems like you have put your soldiers under you in tidying up!"

Pei Wei arrogantly said: "Sorry, I really put them in order... In fact, it's nothing more than finding a few of the most prestigious people in the camp, specifically picking their mistakes and punishing them severely to shock the morale of the army, and then giving the soldiers some benefits. What's the difficulty of giving such kindness and power, so that they can convince them?"

Li Rui continued to roll his eyes. He firmly believed that it was not Pei Wei who convinced the soldiers, but who defeated the soldiers. Those veterans didn't know how many years of war they had fought and how many Shangguans had changed. What methods had they never seen? Pei Wei's method wanted them to convince them, and what was they want to eat! There was a big gap between the superficial contempt and the superficial contempt!

Everyone came to the tent dedicated to Quhou. Pei Wei asked the soldiers to stay outside the tent, and he and Li Rui went in.

Soon, the head of the army brought food, which was really conscious.

Just as he saw this meal, Li Rui's face turned dark:

It was actually rice cooked with ground wheat grains!

Damn, this thing is not as good as corn rice, and the texture of corn rice is much stronger than this one!

Pei Wei was in the army for a long time, so he naturally knew what the food in the army was. He took off his cloak, picked up the bowls and chopsticks, and started to eat it voraciously. Seeing that he did not dislike it at all, Li Rui, as the master, naturally could not dislike it, and picked up the bowl of rice and started to eat it...

This meal was extremely painful. His mouth, who was used to eating all kinds of pasta, really couldn't appreciate the primitive and roughness of the wheat rice. After eating only half a bowl of rice, he chewed his cheeks and got drunk. In this way, he estimated that at most half of the chewed wheat grains were at least half, which means that at least half of the big bowl of rice came out as it was.

This food is really unbearable!

Halfway through the meal, he couldn't bear it anymore and called the head army to ask, "Is there no corn in the army? Why do you need to cook wheat rice?"

The head army said: "There is corn in the army, but there is not much..."

Pei Wei said calmly: "Eat millet rice and digest it slowly when eating wheat rice. So eat millet rice in the morning and wheat rice in the evening. This is a military order. Brother Li, have you forgotten?"

Li Rui now understood that corn rice is easy to digest and eats refreshingly, but it is hungry quickly; wheat rice is difficult to digest and difficult to swallow, but it is slow to hunger. The ancients usually ate two meals a day, breakfast at around 9 o'clock in the morning and dinner at four to five o'clock in the afternoon, and then there is no midnight snack. They have to rely on this meal until nine o'clock the next morning. The long night is long and the weather is cold and the people are hungry very quickly. If they eat those easy-to-digest foods, they are afraid that their stomachs will growl in the middle of the night. How can they stay until dawn?

Therefore, wheat rice is quite suitable.

The ancients were used to it, but he couldn't. He asked the head army: "Is there a stone mill in the army?"

The head of the house said, "Of course there are."

Li Rui said: "Then you use a stone mill to help me grind some flour, I will use it tomorrow!"

When Qu Hou had an order, the head army naturally did not dare to refuse to obey, so they went to work immediately.

Li Rui continued to fight against the remaining half bowl of wheat rice with a deep face. Not to mention, this wheat rice is really tenacious. The ground wheat grains are tossed and turned in their mouths, and they can't chew them no matter how much they are. Those impatient people eat wheat rice, either they can take as much as they eat, or they are angry to death by the tenacious wheat grains. There is no third possibility.

Most of the people with great ability in ancient times were very calm and orderly. Could it be that they were trained to eat wheat rice since childhood?

Pei Wei was used to this kind of rough meal. Although he had no dishes, he also ate with relish. While eating, he explained some military skills to Li Rui, what kind of officers and sergeants deserve to win over, what kind of officers and sergeants must be cut into a meal to establish authority, and in which extreme situations can a few people be killed to establish authority... It was very clear that they were people who led troops for a long time. After listening to his explanation, Li Rui realized that there were so many tricks in ancient times, and there were so many ways to deal with those disobedient soldiers!

Unfortunately, he didn't want to lead troops. He just wanted to lead a few martial arts skills after the situation stabilized and could protect him from running away, so these tips for leading troops were basically useless to him.

Pei Wei said so much in one breath, and seeing that this guy was just nodding and um um um ah ah, he couldn't help but feel angry: "Don't just um um ah ah! I've said so much, have you listened to it?"

Li Rui said that his words just now were like a gust of wind, drilling in from his left ear and piercing them out of his right ear, leaving no trace of turmoil in his mind... But he was kind-hearted and he had to accept this affection, so he bowed and said, "Let me listen to you all! Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years!"

Pei Wei was speechless, but he was speechless: "Can you be more perfunctory with the surname Li?"

Li Rui smiled and was about to speak when a soldier rushed in in a hurry, half-kneeled to Pei Wei, shouting: "Mr. Qu, something is wrong, something big happened!"

Pei Wei frowned and asked, "Why are you so panicked?"

The military said: "Just just now, the Chen Gunshu and Zhang Gunshu escaped with twenty or thirty soldiers!"

Pei Wei jumped up suddenly: "What!? Those two bastards dared to lead the team to escape? It seems that the military stick was lighter at noon, and it would be impossible not to peel them off!" He turned his head and said to Li Rui, "Brother Li, I have something to do to go back first. We will get together when we have time!"

Li Rui stood up and sent him: "Brother Pei is careful on the way."

Pei Wei said: "Yes." He took the personal soldiers out of the village gate in a hurry, rode on a fast horse and rushed all the way back to deal with the destruction of deserters appearing in the military camp.

Li Rui watched him gallop away on a horse, pinched his chin, and muttered: "A army of only 300 people in total appeared No. 20 to 30 deserters. It seems that this guy is not very good at leading troops!" He shook his head, turned around and returned, ran to the kitchen to see if his flour had been ground, and he was not worried about Pei Wei at all. After all, he fought side by side yesterday, and he knew Pei Wei's ability. He dared not say that he had a ten thousand enemies, but at least he was extremely brave. He could fight twenty or thirty one of the ordinary soldiers, and it was more than enough to deal with a group of deserters.

Instead of caring about him, it’s better to worry about what to eat tomorrow. He really doesn’t want to eat that harsh rice anymore, and he has to make some food that suits his taste anyway...

He came to this world not to suffer!

There was really a millstone in the army. A chef was driving a donkey, grinding wheat over and over again, and another chef was sifting the ground flour, sifting out the bran and coarse particles, leaving the finest flour. This was undoubtedly a meticulous job, and it was done with a little patience. Seeing Li Rui in, the two chefs quickly stood up: "See Quhou!"

Li Rui said: "No need to be polite." He grabbed the small pile of flour and was a little surprised: "Have you ground so much?"

The chef said with a smile: "Mr. Qu has an order, so he should do his best, so how dare he be negligent."

Li Rui said: "Okay, good job, good job, and you will be rewarded if you look back!"

The smile on the chef's smile became brighter and brighter.

When Li Rui saw that the flour had already been several pounds, he was not polite. He brought the basin to pour an appropriate amount of flour into it, then added hot water, kneaded it vigorously and rolled it into dough, then covered it with a cloth, put the dough closer to the fire source for fermentation, and searched in the kitchen...

The chef wondered: "Quhou, what are you looking for?"

Li Rui said: "Do you have sugar here?"

The chef was stunned for a moment and said, "Quhou was joking. Candy is something that only high-ranking officials can afford. How could we poor soldiers have such luxury things!"

Li Rui: “…uh!”

Well, he forgot that until the mid-19th century, sugar was a luxury all over the world, and it was impossible to afford to have no money. After the two industrial revolutions, it was even more important to mention the Western Jin Dynasty nearly two thousand years ago!
