MTL - Wei and Jin Cooks-Chapter 719 Biased

  Chapter 719 Biased

  Zhao Hanzhang led Liu Yi to the center of the camp in a mighty manner, and very generously asked the kitchen to prepare meat and vegetables.

   There are pork jerky in the logistics department, as well as some live pigs and live sheep, but not many.

So Zhao Hanzhang is very frugal, and he doesn’t want to eat alone. If there are no guests today, he will have to wait two more days to eat meat, and there are not many. For the 50,000 troops in the army, it would be nice to get a bowl of soup with oily flowers up.

  The cook received Zhao Hanzhang's order, and immediately went to the logistics department to pick a fat sheep and slaughtered it directly.

  They have quick hands and feet, and the kitchen just happens to be boiling water. It only takes a quarter of an hour to catch the sheep-kill the sheep-let the blood.

  The chef's knife slid across the whetstone, then pressed the sheep's head, and walked around neatly and gently, peeling off a whole piece of sheepskin in less than half a moment.

  The soldier next to him holding a torch to illuminate him couldn't help clapping his hands, "The chef is amazing!"

The chef raised his head and said: "I can't do anything else, but peeling the sheep's skin is a piece of cake. I peeled all the sheepskins in the army in Luoyang before. The sheepskins that were peeled out did not have a trace of fat, and they were not torn. Now The boots on your envoy's feet are made of sheepskin that I peeled off, so they are warm."

  The onlookers immediately followed suit.

  The chef's face was flushed by the praise, he waved his hand pretending to be reserved, and greeted his subordinates: "Hurry up and deal with the lamb and lamb legs, and send them to the envoy to roast, don't neglect the guests."

  Everyone responded, rubbing their legs one after another, and looking for Zhao Hanzhang with their things in a short while.

  Zhao Hanzhang asked little prince Liu Yi to sit by the fire, and asked his guards to sit and rest on the other side.

   Except for the chief guard, everyone else followed.

  Ji Yuan hurried over and saw Zhao Hanzhang sitting down beside the fire with a happy face. She and Liu Yi didn't know who to blame.

   One dared to bring twenty people into the enemy camp; the other dared to let the opponent's guards bring weapons close to him, and he was not afraid that the opponent would take the opportunity to assassinate him.

   Ji Yuan stepped forward silently.

   Zhao Hanzhang saw him, and immediately introduced them happily, "Mr. Ji, this is the King of Beihai of Han Kingdom, King of Beihai, this is Mr. Ji by my side."

  Liu Yi looked up at Ji Yuan again. He had also heard of Ji Yuan, and people around his father said that this was the most capable person around Zhao Hanzhang.

  She can achieve what she is today, one depends on Ji Yuan, the other depends on the Zhao family, and some people say that the second depends on Fu Tinghan, but this statement is quite controversial.

  The people around my father once suggested that they send people to buy Ji Yuan with money and beauties, but I heard that none of the people who went there came back, and they were all arrested as spies, and all the money they took went into Zhao Hanzhang’s pocket.

  So my father no longer sent people to Yuzhou to buy people around Zhao Hanzhang.

   Liu Yi admired this kind of backbone and principled counselor, so he immediately stood up and saluted, "Mr. Ji."

  Seeing that the little prince is so courteous and docile, Ji Yuan couldn't help but glance at Zhao Hanzhang.

  Zhao Hanzhang smiled and asked Ji Yuan to sit down quickly, and everyone roasted mutton together.

  The kitchen brought up a stone slab, brushed it with a layer of soybean oil, and then left. They let them barbecue by themselves, and there was a leg of lamb hanging on the other side.

   Zhao Hanzhang asked while flipping the meat slices, "The King of Beihai came from Pingyang City, is there any food on the way?"

   Liu Yi shook his head honestly.

   Zhao Hanzhang gave him the roasted meat, and asked someone to bring a basket of white flour steamed buns.

  That was a good food that she couldn't even afford, but she couldn't show timidity in front of her opponent, so the good food was served to her.

  Zhao Hanzhang asked him while letting him eat, "The king of Beihai said he would come to have peace talks with me?"

  Liu Yi took a mouthful of steamed buns and barbecue meat, eating with relish, nodded and said: "Yes, I have a strong army, you can't defeat Pingyang, why waste the lives of soldiers? Why don't we negotiate a peace."

  Zhao Hanzhang looked at his immature face, after a long silence, he suddenly smiled, and responded, "Okay, it's just the King of Beihai, what conditions can you come up with to negotiate peace with me?"

  Liu Yi was taken aback, paused while holding the steamed bun, and asked, "What more conditions do you need? You retreat and leave, we will not attack you, and we will not recover the counties and counties that you have seized..."

  Zhao Hanzhang shook his head and interrupted him: "This is not acceptable. The king of Beihai came here only to talk about peace, but he has no sincerity at all. I have to suspect that Hanting is trying to amuse me on purpose."

   Liu Yi hurriedly said: "My father personally agreed to the peace negotiation. Inspector Zhao, I think you must know that my fourth brother is coming back. When the army arrives, you can only retreat."

   "Wouldn't it be better to leave early to avoid disaster while there are still no casualties?"

Zhao Hanzhang narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: "Liu Cong's journey back from Jinyang to Pingyang is not very close. Since the King of Beihai is here today, to show my sincerity, I will keep it from you. I plan to send troops to attack Pingyang City tonight. .”

  Liu Yi was startled, "What? You want to attack Pingyang City at night? Have people already set off?"

  Zhao Hanzhang just smiled and said nothing.

   Liu Yi hurriedly said: "No, no, if you dare to attack Pingyang, General Shi will definitely send troops to serve the king, and you will definitely not survive by then."

   "I'm dead, shouldn't you Han be happy? Why is the King of Beihai so anxious?"

  Liu Yi opened his mouth and said for a while, "I, I admire the character of Governor Zhao, and I don't want to see your life in vain."

   Seeing him in such distress, Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help laughing, she patted him on the shoulder fiercely and said happily: "Just based on the words of the Seventh Prince, I'm well worth the meal."

  She asked for wine to be served.

There is less wine than meat in the army. It is for people to keep people away from the cold. Zhao Hanzhang poured him a bowl, then poured it for himself, touched his bowl and drank it down, watching with a half-smile He said: "But, I don't think Shi Le's reinforcements can reach Pingyang City."

   "My Beigong general is not a vegetarian, and Shi Le is no match for him at all," Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile, "But to make a detour, are you willing to let Shi Le's army pass through their territory?"

  Liu Yi was startled, a chill ran down her spine, how did she know they were unwilling?

Zhao Hanzhang looked at his face, and when her guess was confirmed, she became more and more happy, but there was not much change on her face, she smiled and said: "Shi Le is cruel, compared with your fourth brother, it is common for generals to kill and eat people, let us He passed through your territory, and it is not certain what he will take with him when he leaves, and he may even stay behind, and by then, your losses will be greater than when I attacked Pingyang City."

  Liu Yi pursed his lips and defended Shi Le, "That was just what his subordinates did, and General Shi himself still didn't want to do that."

   said again: "My father has the kindness of knowing him, he will be grateful to my father."

   "Really?" Zhao Hanzhang asked: "If Shi Le is grateful, why would he seize Shangdang County?"

  Liu Yi couldn't say anything to justify. He was still young and his character was not strong enough, so he was quickly led astray by Zhao Hanzhang.

  Zhao Hanzhang said slowly: "As for Liu Cong, he has returned from a long journey, and the army is exhausted. Do you think he can stop my Zhao family army who is recharging their energy?"

Good night
