The Road to National Restoration that Began at the End of the Century

Chapter 139: Making Wine From Refined Rice?

As night fell, Pierre and his party could take a break and taste today's dinner directly in the trench where the corpses had been cleared.

Pierre: "Are you okay?"

Mailin: "You can stay in this trench to eat, how can it be okay? But I really can't figure it out, each of them is holding a thermal light knife..."

Pierre: "Don't think about it. After eating, take a shower, and then go to bed. Today, we are all tired."

Yes.

Everyone is very tired.

Especially after the entire network of trenches was cleared and the pig-headed men continued to retreat to the third trench, which was inside the city, Mailin really couldn't understand why these pig-headed men couldn't completely give up the "feat of drawing swords and slashing tanks." ". Then, they only had to wait until they reached the tank, and were beaten into a hornet's nest one by one by themselves or other comrades.

What was even more confusing to him was why these pig-headed men made no move to surrender at all, and even carried out suicide attacks by wrapping explosives on their bodies many times.

Are these guys taking some drugs that can make them mentally abnormal, and then they appear on the battlefield to fight with them?

have no idea.

But Mailin calmed down and thought about it seriously. The pig-headed man's heat-light knife must be the ultimate technological product of the pig-headed man's delusion that he could conquer the world with one knife.

At the same time, it is an important prerequisite for the pig-headed men to try to gain an absolute advantage in hand-to-hand combat.

But he didn't need to worry so much. After fighting all day, he got a bottle of wine in a smaller size.

Yes.

The depression and anguish accumulated on the battlefield, and even the fear of life and death in just a moment, are the reasons why every soldier who has experienced bloody battles needs to drink.

No wine…

They may collapse.

Especially the wine brewed from cane sugar by the Krorod Empire. This thing is really a must-have treasure for every warrior of the Krorod Empire.

One drink can relieve a thousand sorrows.

No matter what kind of lament you have in your heart, drink it with a bottle of white wine.

There’s nothing wine can’t fix.

liquor.

From the time when the Krorod Empire was not yet established and the Rimai people were just a group of slaves who were imprisoned and used as cannon fodder, wine has always been a good thing that every Rimai people need from time to time.

Especially since the Krolod Empire is a country rich in cane sugar, and male people generally don't like to eat sugar, wine and even spirits with a higher alcohol content have naturally become a specialty.

Of course, drinking a bottle of Mailin directly is not enough. But at night, the meals prepared by the cooks are the most important.

After all, no matter who you are, just drinking alcohol cannot guarantee sufficient combat effectiveness.

So Zelen, whose food level was on par with front-line soldiers, smiled softly when he saw that there was meat and vegetables on the table, there was no shortage of rice, and there was even a little orange juice.

Jane: "Zeren?"

Zelen: "Nothing, just... sighing that the food is getting better day by day."

How to say it?

Thanks to the development activities in the Southern Province that have alleviated the population pressure in the Western Province, although the Krurod Empire is still in the period of food control, according to the current standards of ordinary front-line soldiers, the vast majority of the people can get 630 rice a day. Grams, 40 grams of coconut oil, 350 grams of vegetables, 270 grams of protein, 250 grams of wine, 300 grams of fruits, and 65 grams of snacks.

Jane: "Do you think you ate too much?"

Zelen: "A little bit. Besides, I still have a question that I can't figure out. Will the pig-headed man die if he doesn't eat polished rice?"

Jane: "Pfft..."

Zelen: "Don't laugh. I heard rumors outside that pig-headed people only eat polished rice in their lives, and it is steamed polished rice. If they are not sick in bed, they will never drink porridge."

Jane: "Yes. Because in the traditional culture of the pig-headed people, polished rice is a symbol of aristocratic status. Being able to eat polished rice three meals a day proves that you are superior to others and that you are higher than ordinary people."

Zelen: "Then do they know that every grain of rice they eat is polished until only 40% of the original grain remains?"

Jane: "So that's why their nobles have been eating polished rice since the past. Polished rice tastes much better than the rice we eat now."

Zelen: "Spoiling food is the biggest crime. The remaining 60%, they won't just throw it into the sea to feed the fish, right?"

Felicity: "I heard that they will use it to brew a rice wine. However, they prefer rice wine brewed with pure polished rice."

Zelen: "What? It's not enough to simply eat steamed polished rice, but you also need to use polished rice to make wine? I, we Rimai people drink because we are not short of sugar, especially men generally don't like to eat sugar, resulting in a lot of Sugar has not been made into candies, so we have our flagship product, wine. As for using rice to make wine, I feel bad about it."

After hearing this introduction from Felicity and Jane, two wives who were closely related to the military, Zelen really couldn't understand what kind of guys the pig-headed people were.

In order to plunder the rice resources abundant in the Krurod Empire, he ordered the black-haired kobolds to act as thugs in terrorist attacks, clearing the way through large-scale massacres and even kidnapping people, and then he personally seized the rice for himself, so that the Japanese The Mai people suffered a tragic famine, and the Pa-O Republic was completely destroyed.

For this, the pig-headed man must be killed. Not only must he be killed, but in his opinion, he must be killed in a faster way.

Otherwise, Zelun will not be able to face every citizen who unfortunately died of starvation during the war.

What the pig-headed man did was a systematic and purposeful genocide.

All this together...

Anyway, Zelun has nothing to comment on.

Waste of food...

If his mother was still alive, she would have taught him a lesson long ago.

Could it be that none of these pig-headed people told them the importance of food?

Moreover, the pig-headed man's country, the Akitsu Empire, is an island country, an island country also built by archipelagos.

There is one thing about countries built on archipelagos that is very different from mainland countries.

That is, land resources are particularly scarce compared to the mainland.

This is why the Krurod Empire has been expanding since its establishment, and has turned the surrounding islands into nodes of the domestic logistics network.

If this is not done, even eating will become a very serious matter for the Krurod Empire.

Felicity: "To be honest, I don't know what rice wine tastes like. But the soldiers below have seized wine flasks from the bodies of some of the sword-drawing team. The alcohol content of the rice wine inside is not high, and it is even a little sweet."

Zeren: "Is it because the starch in the rice is hydrolyzed?"

Felicity: "Yeah. But you and other male citizens definitely don't like this kind of sweet wine. After all, the rum you like to drink doesn't have a very obvious sweet taste."

Zeren: "I don't have much to say about this. And, don't you consider having a glass of rum?"

Jane: "If we drink it, we will have to go to the delivery room to give birth to your baby next year."

Zeren: "Oh, so you keep walking in front of me in very thin underwear?"

Jane: "Anyway, you won't feel lonely with us here. And we gave up long ago. As long as you want, I will We welcome you to sleep in our room anytime, and it doesn't matter if you hug us and do exercise every morning or evening. After all, I am also ready, at least five children. "

Felicity: "You gave up too early, right?"

Jane: "You don't sound like that... There are not many people in your family, wouldn't it be good for your family to have children earlier? What's more, some of our things are better to go into the delivery room, so that it will be easier to do later."

Zeren: "What is it?"

Jane: "This is a female secret."

Felicity: "Instead of asking this, how about I feed you myself?"

Zeren: "Don't, if it gets out, I don't know what people will say about me."

Although everyone knows that Zelen, as His Majesty the Emperor, must have a more exciting personal life, but Zelen has too many things to do, and he is so tired every day that he just wants to sleep when he comes back...
