The soldiers stared fiercely at Li Xiao Shan.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Li Xiaoshan's mind. He felt that these Ming soldiers were completely different from the Ming soldiers he had encountered before.

"Everyone, the Eight Banners Lord has already swept through more than half of the Ming Empire. You can't stop the Eight Banners Lord's elite Eight Banners soldiers!”

As Li Xiao Shan spoke, he brought his trusted aides and handed out ten boxes of gold, silver, and jewelry.

Pu Zhenguo walked toward Li Xiaoshan with his Mo Blade in hand as he faced the dense pile of gold, silver, and jewelry.

"When two armies fight, don't kill the messenger! But he didn't say that he wouldn't beat up the messenger. Hit him hard!"

The soldiers held their knives and fiercely smashed them at Li Xiao Shan.

Li Xiao Shan was extremely depressed. Before he could react, the ten large chests of gold, silver, and jewelry were all confiscated. His twenty trusted aides were beaten black and blue by the Ming army.

Li Xiao Shan's face was swollen like a pig's head.

"You guys are courting death!"

"You're not a toilet, why are we looking for sh * t?”

Li Xiao Shan did not know how to retort.

"Remember, we are soldiers of the Ming Empire and are irreconcilable enemies with Slave Jian!”

Finishing, the soldiers chased Li Xiao Shan and his 20 trusted aides out of the carriage formation.

When he returned to the camp, Li Chengdong kicked the case aside when he saw the soldiers with bruises all over their faces.

"Bastard! How dare you beat up the messenger I sent! I still have 50,000 soldiers, I can still fight a battle!”

Li Chengdong's killing intent burst out.

Li Xiao Shan covered his swollen face.

"Godfather, the supplies are gone! Our camp only has one day's rations!”

Li Chengdong walked in the camp and squatted on the ground.

"The soil is relatively wet. Digging into the soil, earthworms can also be eaten!”

Li Xiao Shan was stunned. He had eaten earthworms once when he was with Commander Gao Jie in South Zhili.

Usually, when there was no grain and they had to hold on, eating earthworms, tree bark, tree roots, and grass became a common occurrence.

However, when they ate earthworms and tree bark, they were still the Ming army. Ever since they joined Slave Jian, they could eat and drink to their fill every day.

Now that the Green Army soldiers who had become Slave Jian were going to eat earthworms and tree bark again, Li Xiaoshan was furious.

The soldiers were digging in the camp with hoes.

Many earthworms were dug out, and wells were dug out to wash the earthworms.

He marinated the earthworms with salt, ground the tree bark into powder, and mixed it with the dry food he brought with him. Then, he chopped the earthworms into meat paste.

After mixing the meat paste, wood chips, and dry food powder, they were made into earthworm-wood chips.

Fifty thousand soldiers were squatting in the camp, eating biscuits and complaining.

"Motherf * cker, I originally wanted to surrender to Slave Jian for a meal and some silver. I didn't expect to return to the living standards of the Ming army!”,Xu Wei squatted beside the iron pot, gritting his teeth in anger.

Many soldiers were also very depressed. They had robbed a lot of gold, silver, and jewelry along the way south, but they were all useless now.

Around the camp, the five thousand heavy cavalrymen did not leave.

The carriage formation also began to move towards the camp.

"Dong dong dong ~~"

The warning drum sounded. Many soldiers who were fighting for earthworms and sawdust biscuits took the biscuits and ate them while running to the camp.

Hoho ~~

Hoho ~~

The farmers in the carriage used their podaos to hit the cloth bags on the carriage.

The infantrymen in the carriage formation marched in an orderly manner, shouting slogans as they walked towards the camp.

The soldiers stopped a mile away from the camp.

Pu Zhenguo waved his hand.

"Burying the pot to cook rice, we have enough white rice, put it on the steamer, and cook the meat buns! He placed the braised pork in the big iron pot!”

In this era, there was soy sauce, artificially brewed soy sauce.

The cooks poured the brewed soy sauce into the pot and the pork into the pot.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, pork could not be called pork. It was called pig because the Ming Emperor's surname was Zhu.

The fragrance of meat, meat buns, and white rice wafted through the entire car formation.

"Damn it, the army of Canming is so well fed? Look, the big iron pot is full of meat!"

"It's braised pork and the fragrance of meat buns!”

"Look, big white rice!"

In this era, only the nobles could eat pure white rice.

Even ordinary landowners ate grains.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, those who could eat four dishes were basically the families of nobles.

Landlord families usually only had two dishes and one soup.

As for the commoners, they could only eat meat and white rice during the New Year.

Usually, they would sell their crops and vegetables on the streets.

As for hunters, most of them did not eat meat often. Most of the prey they hunted was for sale.

The soldiers of the Green Army were better off than the ordinary people. They could eat meat once a month, and most of them were fed with miscellaneous grains.

As for one day, the common people had two meals a day, which were morning and evening.

They ate at eight in the morning and five in the afternoon.

The soldiers were much better off. They had three meals a day, eight in the morning, twelve in the afternoon, and six in the evening.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, most of the soldiers were just trying to make a living.

As for the large number of Ming soldiers who surrendered to the construction slaves and became Green Army soldiers, it was all for the sake of having a full meal.

The 50,000 Green Camp soldiers smelled the aroma of food in the air, and the earthworm-sawdust meat cakes in their hands instantly lost their fragrance.

Li Chengdong stood on top of the camp, swallowing his saliva.

"Damn, Canming's food is so good? I feel like I'm dreaming?"

Li Xiao Shan smelled the fragrance of meat, buns, and white rice from afar. He was hungry.

"I'm so hungry! Godfather, this doesn't make sense! The Ming soldiers we met before were so hungry that they ate grass and leaves. This group of Ming soldiers actually ate so well!”

Thousand Households Xu Wei pointed at the carriage formation.

"Look, even the farmers who transport grain can eat red braised pork!”

For a moment, the entire camp was filled with soldiers who were drooling with envy.

Li Chengdong and the commanders behind him looked as if they were doubting their lives.
