Hui also left, and Zhang Qi sat alone in the yurt, wondering whether he should return to the world of riding and cutting to bring out a batch of supplies.
Meat alone is not enough to raise soldiers, they also need enough carbohydrates. He still has more than 5 million dinars in hand, which can be converted into more than 50,000 kilograms of food.
Of course, these nearly 50,000 yuan will not be enough to feed everyone in the camp for a few days, but if it is only used to feed a thousand-man army, coupled with meat, it will be enough to last for a long time.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qi took out a piece of cloth and started writing.
According to observations over the past half month, these people have an average of about one and a half kilograms of food per day. Of course, this is only because Zhang Qi is generous. Otherwise, if it were other troops, they would have to eat so much every day. The food consumption is as high as the sky, which is only more than one kilogram.
"In the past, many things were done simply for the purpose of 'tripping grass'. Now that I have free time, if the nutrition is well matched, the food consumption should be reduced."
Zhang Qi took a charcoal pen and wrote on the cloth: "Half a catty of meat, four taels of grain, two eggs, and a cup of fresh milk in the morning and evening with about 300 ml is enough."
After writing, Zhang Qi thought for a while and added: "Before the army is formed, the Huotou Army must be established first. It is better to have dedicated cooks than to let those people do it themselves."
The army that Zhang Qi plans to form is considered to be a completely off-the-job soldier in every sense of the word. To put it bluntly, Zhang Qi will be responsible for their food and clothing from now on.
And the most important thing now is to raise the bodies and bones of these former slaves and low-level herdsmen. He cannot be stingy with food.
High oil and high salt is the prerequisite.
Various stir-fries and stews appeared frequently in Zhang Qi's mind.
"And sugar!"
Zhang Qi thought of a big killer. Needless to say the role of sugar, this thing is definitely of great use in recuperating the body, but the question now is where does the sugar come from?
With his thoughts flying, Zhang Qi couldn't help but look at the world of riding and slashing.
Now he can think of two things that can produce sugar. One is wheat, maltose is also sugar, but the production process is a bit cumbersome, and the other is the sorghum that was originally traded from various tribes.
"Yes, sorghum stalks!"
Zhang Qi immediately thought of sorghum. He had chewed sorghum stalks a lot when he was a child, and the sweet taste was just a little worse than sugar cane.
"But you can't get white sugar out of sorghum stalks. If you push the sorghum stalks to the sky, you can only get out syrupy syrup, but that's enough."
Zhang Qi recorded on the cloth that people who have lived in rural areas are generally familiar with boiling sugar. Even if they really don’t know how to do it, they can do it just by trying a few times. Boiling sugar is the key.
After writing and drawing on the cloth, Zhang Qi entered the world of riding and cutting with the cloth and a bag of sorghum rice.
He had never tried growing outside crops before, and he didn't know if it would work.
Return to the camp near Chaikan.
The appearance of the current riding and cutting world camp has also changed. Zhang Qi built a log walled city by the river where it was originally planned as a logging camp.
It's not big, about two acres, and is surrounded by logs.
He moved out because as Zhang Qi wanted to do more and more things, the space in Chaikan City became smaller. He didn't want to be warned by the guards if he messed with it, so he simply moved out.
Of course, Suojial and some NPC soldiers still stayed in Chaikan City. The blacksmithing and throwing of iron continued, and Zhang Qi did not put down the cash machine in the arena.
Inside the wall are rows of fur yurts. The camp is very empty, but there are various exercise equipment, including iron locks for strength training, stone hammers, plum blossom stakes for training concentration, and Zhang Qi saw many exercise tools in various videos.
He still doesn't know what works and what doesn't, but it doesn't matter. In the world of horse-and-blade, it's time to try.
There is also an area surrounded by wooden fences outside the camp, some of which are breeding chickens, ducks and geese that Zhang Qi found from various villages, and others are his experimental nurseries.
As for why the fence is used, it is naturally to stop some blind robbers and robbers.
"Lord Wolf!"
Seeing Zhang Qi's sudden appearance, the wolf cubs were already used to it. After saying hello, they continued to do their own things.
There are also many things to do in the camp in the world of riding and cutting. In addition to training these wolf cubs, they are also responsible for taking care of crops and making bows and arrows.
In addition to these, Zhang Qi also built a blacksmith shop in the camp of the riding and slashing world to create some things that cannot be obtained in the system blacksmith shop.
It's just that after more than a year of riding in the world, Zhang Qi has only figured out the technology of how to melt iron, and is still figuring out how to forge it.
"Hu Jiu!"
In the camp, Zhang Qi shouted.
"arrive!"
Not long after, a clear female voice sounded from a group of wolf pups in training.
A girl with some freckles on her face ran over and stood at attention in front of Zhang Qi.
"Lord Wolf!"
Zhang Qi threw the bag of sorghum on his shoulder in front of Hu Jiu.
"You need to find a place to open up a piece of farmland and plant the things here."
Hu Jiu had injured her wrist before, and Zhang Qi personally treated her, so she had the impression that when he needed to plant something later, he would always put Hu Jiu in charge.
"yes!"
Hu Jiu quickly performed a military salute, then ran out of the camp carrying the bag of sorghum.
This area has always been where Zhang Qi cut wood, so there is a lot of open space around it. The nurseries that were previously cultivated in Chaikan have also been moved here.
So for reclaiming farmland, don’t go too far.
Zhang Qi watched Hu Jiu leave and waved, and a dozen nearby Kusait heavy-armored riders guarding the log wall followed Zhang Qi.
It took less than ten minutes to arrive at Chaikan from the log city. After entering the city, Zhang Qi started shopping at the merchant.
A bag of grain weighs fifty kilograms, so he bought two hundred bags at once and emptied the grain in the chaikan.
Two hundred bags of grain weigh 10,000 kilograms, and it can last for a month even if taken out to feed the army for training.
After purchasing the grains, Zhang Qi stacked them together, then went to the blacksmith shop to forge the materials that Suojial had smelted during this period.
After having Jieying Haqin, Zhang Qi never left the area around Chaikan, and he left all business work to Haqin.
Speaking of Cao Cao's arrival, just after Zhang Qi finished making a batch of two-handed swords, Ha Qin's figure appeared at the door of the blacksmith shop. Zhang Qi knew that she was here to get the goods.
[Silonika’s army rebelled against their lord! 】
Just as Zhang Qi handed a batch of bundled two-handed swords to Ha Qin, a message that popped up in his lower left corner of the field of vision caught Zhang Qi's attention.
"Rebel City!!"
