Chapter 538

Mo Wu took a look at Merton. With Merton's encouragement, he took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "it doesn't need drugs to treat night blindness, just diet."

"Dietotherapy!" the people immediately looked at each other.

Mo Wushen said in a deep voice: "after comparison, I found that none of the captured Tuyuhun soldiers had night blindness. Similarly, they had checked in all Turkic departments, and it was very common for our army to have night blindness."

Li Daliang frowned and said, "is this the problem of people in one place? Maybe the water and soil in all parts of the grassland can avoid night blindness."

Mo Wu shook his head and said, "not so. The same people in Guanzhong, butchers, hunters and soldiers from superior families do not have night blindness. I believe all generals also do not have night blindness."

The generals were stunned, ignored and nodded slowly. They really didn't have night blindness.

"If the soldiers without night blindness in our army were compared with Tuyuhun soldiers and Turkic soldiers, there would be only one thing in common."

Mo paused for five times and said confidently, "that's eating meat! Meat eaters don't have night blindness, and those without meat have more night blindness. Rich families and grassland tribes don't lack meat at all, but poor families in the mainland can't eat meat several times a year, which is why many poor families in the army have night blindness!

"Eat meat!"

The generals immediately looked at each other. They could not imagine that the cause of night blindness was so simple.

"Yes, it's so simple. In the Mohist hospital, the boy once found that the people in Chang'an city are rich and rarely have night blindness, while the rural people are poor and often have night blindness. To be honest, the boy also had night blindness a year ago, and it's quite serious. Even most of the whole Mohist village has night blindness. However, since the young master led the Mohist village to become rich, it's not just the boy The night blindness was cured. No one took medicine in the whole Mojia village, and the night blindness gradually disappeared. The boy was still wondering secretly before. Now I think back, I'm afraid it's the reason why Mojia village has no shortage of meat since then. "Mo Wu arched his hand towards Merton's gratitude.

Hearing that Mo Wu used a lot of facts to prove it, and taking himself and Mojia village as examples, they believed that the night blindness was really due to the lack of meat.

At this moment, everyone can't help but feel Hao Ran. The staple food in the army was millet and rice. If Merton hadn't made compressed dry food, I'm afraid there would be very few oil and meat in the army.

"But now that the war is imminent, is it still time to eat meat?" Li Daliang worried.

Merton said with a wry smile, "it's too late. To tell you the truth, I'm the first cook who makes compressed dry food and is responsible for cooking meat. His night blindness has been cured."

The generals couldn't help laughing. They naturally understood that the cook couldn't die of hunger in a cheap year. Obviously, the cook didn't eat less. No one could catch him when he ate. Now, I'm afraid the unlucky cook got better because of night blindness. The cook knocked Merton down. I don't know whether he was lucky or had blood luck for eight years.

"Now that the root cause has been found, it depends on the general's reluctance to give up his capital." Merton looked at Li Jing.

Li Jing took a swipe and supplied meat to 200000 troops, which was an astronomical figure. However, it was not a stingy time at present. With a wave of his hand, Li Jing said: "general Su, first kill the captured cattle and sheep in the third fort of Tuyuhun, first supply the troops for food, and at the same time, immediately supply a large number of cattle and sheep to all departments of the Qiang people in Dangxiang. Whether buying or changing, we must ensure the meat of the troops."

As long as night blindness is solved, Li Jing's plan is perfect. At this time, Li Jing will not be stingy at this time.

Su dingfang immediately bowed and said, "yes!"

Seeing this, Li Jing suddenly shouted, "OK, that's it. All the troops should pay close attention to rectification. On the first day of May, our army and Tuyuhun will fight to the death."

On the brick road from Lanzhou to Chang'an City, the military grain transport team has completely replaced the post station. During the transportation, people found that although the speed of four horses pulling the carriage is not as fast as riding, the victory is lasting. Especially when the grain transport team returns to Chang'an from Lanzhou City, the journey is doubled.

In three days, the messenger of victory comfortably rested on the empty carriage for three days, and had arrived at Chang'an city. If it had been changed, I would have been half dead tired.

The messenger untied a horse, turned over and rode on it, and galloped to Chang'an city.

"Tuyuhun three Fort victory!"

When the messenger of victory roared through Chang'an City, the whole Chang'an city was boiling in an instant, and everyone rushed to tell each other and cheered loudly.

"Well, the three Fort Tuyuhun came down overnight, and the damage was minimal. The firearm supervisor really disappointed me." Li Shimin said excitedly looking at the success report in the Tai Chi hall.

"Congratulations, your majesty." the ministers also said with joy.

Seeing that the process of the army was so smooth, the original worries of the ministers also disappeared.

Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a mysterious smile: "this is just one of the joys. General Li also brought me some delicious food from Lanzhou. Please taste it and see how it tastes."

"Delicious food? Delicious food sent from Lanzhou?" the ministers immediately looked at each other. They were in a high position. They had never tasted any delicious food, and it was the food three days ago, which made the ministers who lived in honor repel. Let alone the food three days later, it was the food next to each other. They had never eaten it since they were in a high position.

Li Shimin smiled and did not speak, but waved his hand. Pound immediately took a tray to the ministers. On the tray, he saw a plate of compressed dry food.

"Is this dry food?" Fang Xuanling picked up a palm sized compressed dry food and frowned. He was not young. For hard things, he had more heart than strength.

Some old ministers in the court were also in a dilemma with compressed dry food in their hands.

Li Shimin explained: "this is a new type of military food produced by Merton on the front line. It's called compressed dry food. Although he's just a small piece, it's compressed by gravity. One piece is enough to satisfy him for a day."

"Seriously?" Qin Qiong said with a shocked face. It's incredible to hear that one can eat for a day. Other important officials also looked at a small piece of dry food in their hands.

"If you can have enough to eat, don't you know if you can eat one?" Li Shimin said.

At that moment, Qin Qiong couldn't wait to eat a few mouthfuls. She couldn't help but brighten her eyes and said, "there's meat. It tastes good."

When other ministers saw this, they were relieved to eat. They nodded with satisfaction. The generals felt very full when they ate a whole piece, while some Wen ministers with small appetite could not eat half of it.

"Sure enough!" Qin Qiong belched.

"In this way, when our army goes on an expedition, the worry about military food will certainly be relieved." all the officials in the court are old officials who calm the world. Naturally, they know the importance of food and grass. Therefore, they can easily carry military food for a month. I just don't know how long this compressed dry food can be guaranteed.

"This is the compressed dry food ten days ago," Li Shimin said.

"Ten days!" people's eyes lit up. When they just ate, they didn't feel any peculiar smell at all. It was quite delicious.

"Not only that, according to Li Aiqing's report, Merton boasted that the compressed dry food could be stored for at least two months, and it could be stored for half a year as wrapped in oil paper. Pound wrapped the rest of the compressed dry food in oil paper and gave it to Merton after he returned from the war." Li Shimin smiled cunningly.

The ministers burst into laughter and thought of the look on Merton's face after he returned to Chang'an City and ate this dry food for half a year.

"Today, we wait for the Tang Dynasty, but it's a double happiness!" Fang Xuanling opened with a happy smile.

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "no, it's three happiness. In the western expedition, doctor Mo Wu, who went with the army, has found a way to solve the night blindness in the army?"
