The reason why I chose flour as the main military ration this time is because the rice is a simple way to cook, and it is usually cooked into rice or porridge. It is far less varied than flour, especially some of which can be used as rice and as food.

For example, because of Li Anran's foodie attribute, he appeared in the Tang Dynasty in advance in various stuffed buns, sauerkraut, and sesame cakes. There are also French baguettes, breads, and other varieties that will not break for a month. They can be said to be of a wide variety and have their own strengths.

Some people may say that this rice can also be made into rice balls, sushi, rice noodles, etc. Well, it is OK, but not to mention the trouble of making it, these foods are far less likely to be as long as the dead noodles pancakes in terms of storage time.

In addition to wheat flour, corn flour and rice, Li Anran also asked Hu Ling'er to order a large batch of ham sausages. As a result, the other party was very considerate to order four varieties of beef, pork, chicken and fish.

At the same time, these four types of ham sausages are divided into four different flavors: sweet, salty, spicy, and spicy. In fact, more flavors can be divided, but in Li Anran's opinion, four varieties can be created, and four flavors are already generous enough.

Of course, considering that these things are just military rations, the quality is not required according to the high standards of a certain brand of kings. As for the problem of excessive starch content, I believe that ordinary soldiers will not care about it.

However, in order to ensure that the Tang Dynasty used troops against the Turks this time, it would not be affected by his stinginess. Li Anran did not forget to ask Hu Ling'er to order a batch of salty goods and cured meat, such as bacon, sausages, salted chicken and other easy-to-store meat.

With these salty meat pickled, it can not only replenish the soldiers' nutrition and physical strength, but also replenish the most critical substance, which is salt!

Although salt is a basic seasoning in modern time and space, its status in ancient times was obviously much more important.

Regarding this thing, Li Anran also has a very special and speechless experience.

When Li Shimin arranged a battalion of troops to guard near Xiaoyao Villa, serving as guards and surveillance, Li Anran took Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun more than once to the barracks to "discuss" with the soldiers.

As a result, when I went there for the first time, I accidentally chatted with the soldiers there and learned that salt was rare. Especially when I marched and fought, it was easy to be unable to supply for various reasons, so sometimes I could only use vinegar cloth.

Especially in recent years, the Turks have not stopped. They have committed crimes every year, and they have done everything they want to burn, kill, loot, and the salt from Shandong cannot be transported in. The salt pond on the grassland cannot be collected. So Zuo Wuwei stationed in Longshi, who is stationed in Longshi, is very short of salt every year.

As for the vinegar cloth, Li Anran was also very curious at the beginning that it was a god-like thing, and it could still be supplemented with salt. As a result, it was fine if he didn't ask. After the person took out the vinegar cloth, he was almost spit out by the smell of this thing on the spot.

The so-called vinegar cloth originally refers to the cloth used to filter vinegar. But here it is another matter.

If you have watched ancient Japanese films, you may find that in many cases, ancient Japanese soldiers or monks traveling around would wear hats. The function of this thing is not only limited to sunshade, but also as a container for eating and seasoning jar.

It is easy to understand the food container. Who can bring a bowl when you go out? Usually, the hat is carried on the head to protect the sun, and when you need it, it is a rice bowl. As for the seasoning jar, it is because after people sweat, some salt will be left on the hat.

Therefore, when eating with a straw hat, it can invisibly replenish salt. Of course, this taste is absolutely unfavorable to be delicious. The vinegar cloth used in the Tang army is two things, but in principle it is almost the same.

Therefore, every time when the soldiers had to replenish the salt by eating the "salt" condensed from their sweat, Li Anran felt that he had lost his appetite in an instant. Fortunately, with the filtration technology, the salt industry in Datang did have obvious development.

At least when fighting in other places, when encountering salt mines that are bitter and poisonous, you don’t have to sigh as before, but you can use edible salt to make edible salt through filtration technology, and it is also fine fine salt.

With these salts as supplies, not only the soldiers fighting on the front line were relieved from the disgust and helplessness of vinegar cloth, but also the processed salt greatly alleviated the need for salt in various parts of the Tang Dynasty and played a role in regulating the salt price.

Of course, this approach has greatly affected the interests of families who control salt prices. Fortunately, although Li Shimin did not "purge" the salt industry on a large scale for some reasons, he was quite tough in the use of salt in military supplies.

In addition, because of Li Anran's foodie attributes, various cured meats and salty goods began to become popular in the Tang Dynasty. The problem of using salt and meat in the army was difficult to store for a long time can be said to be able to be easily solved and played a huge role.

Unfortunately, even with Li Anran's (tutoring) and support, the Tang Dynasty's agriculture and animal husbandry still could not form an agricultural system like modern time and space in just about two years. In addition, the convenience of output and procurement is naturally far less convenient than direct procurement in modern times.

Taking advantage of Hu Ling'er purchasing military supplies that Li Shimin wanted to use this time, Li Anran, who returned to modern time and space, was not idle either. First, he met with his classmates, friends and his employees, and showed off his presence with what he should meet and what he should eat.

Then I returned to the multi-functional exploration spacecraft that was still parked in the asteroid belt, and asked about the progress of resource mining and material and equipment production. Especially the resources needed to be used to manufacture the Shenyu spacecraft, I paid great attention to it.

In fact, after breaking the idea of ​​darkness under the light, at the suggestion of the Central Intelligent Brain Cortana, Li Anran took the lead in letting the multi-function exploration ship put those basic equipment in front of the manufacturing sequence.

After all, a huge colonial ship needs to use a large type of materials and quantity. If you only rely on a multi-function exploration ship to directly manufacture parts and then assemble them in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty, God knows that it can only be made in the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

With those basic equipment, although some key things still have to be completed by multi-function exploration ships, at least a lot of the manufacturing work on basic materials can be shared, thus saving time.

At the same time, these equipment, especially the manufacturing and production equipment of basic raw materials, can not only be limited to providing resources to colonial ships. Previous gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, war knives, armor and other materials can also be handed over to these equipment for the responsibility.

However, the spacecraft that Li Anran paid attention to this time was not the colonial ship named "Qidian". Instead, he suddenly thought about borrowing the content of a science fiction American drama and creating a ship similar to a palace for himself.

This American drama "Star Gate", which inspired Anran, is actually quite "age". Some of the special effects and settings in it are indeed a bit outdated, but for a science fiction fan, this American drama is still absolutely pornographic.

As for the prototype of the Divine Realm spacecraft, it draws on the starship of the city abandoned on an alien planet in the second "Star Gate: Atlantis" trilogy.

This starship is more appropriate than a spaceship to be a small city. Its magnificent shape and various advanced black technologies, even though they are not large in size, give people the feeling that it is not comparable to ordinary spacecraft.

Just so happened that Li Anran was thinking that having a colonial ship alone would not meet his needs in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty. Since he was going to do it, why not go with the flow and make it bigger. So he asked the central intelligent brain Cortana to design it based on the Atlantis.
