Chapter Seven hundred and thirtieth: Not even for meat

"Hi! If it tastes good, you'll know after you try it!"

When the locusts came out of the pot, Fan Kuai stretched out his big hand and caught one.

He dared to try it alive, let alone now that it has been fried in oil and exudes such an alluring aroma!

"Crack..."

When he took a bite, it was delicious and crispy. Fan Kuai's eyes widened in shock.

"How about it?"

Seeing his shocked expression, everyone asked in confusion.

"Try it quickly...!"

While chewing, Fan Kuai pointed at the locusts in the basin and greeted everyone.

"What do you mean? Does it taste good or not? That's something to talk about."

Wang Li frowned and rolled his eyes at him.

"Do I need to say this? It must be delicious, otherwise, Lao Fan would never look like this!"

"Yes, let's try it too!"

Even though Peng Yue and Fan Kuai often quarrel, it has to be said that he understands Fan Kuai best.

Seeing Fan Kuai's expression, you already knew what he meant!

"Well! Then try it!"

Cao Shen flattened his mouth, stretched out two fingers, pinched one out of the basin with disgust, closed his eyes, and threw it into his mouth.

"Huh? It tastes really good!"

The ending was completely unexpected.

I never expected that fried locusts would be so delicious!

“Delicious, delicious!”

“Crack, crunchy, really good!”

"This thing won't even change for meat!"

"Now think about it, how much delicious food have we missed over the years...!"

After everyone tasted it, they were full of praise.

When I think of the lively locusts that are everywhere in Da Qin, I feel pity.

If I had known earlier that this stuff was so delicious, why wouldn’t I have caught a few of them?

"Haha! Your Highness the Crown Prince has many ways to do it. If we relied on us, we would never be able to come up with such a wonderful way in this life!"

"Yes! Who would have thought that the solution to the locust plague is to eat them!"

"Quick! Pass the order and let the army start catching locusts. We will eat them tonight...!"

Han Xin gave the order with a face full of joy.

"Okay!"

Everyone responded, grabbed a few more locusts, stuffed them into their mouths, chewed them with relish, and went out to deliver the order.

When the soldiers received the news, they all showed expressions of disbelief!

"General Peng, are you right? Are you sure the locusts can be eaten?"

The soldiers also looked extremely reluctant and asked suspiciously.

"Hmph! If you are asked to catch it, go and catch it! Just be careful not to swallow all your tongues when we get out of the frying pan!"

Peng Yue said jokingly.

"How is that possible? We have been eating a lot of horse meat during this period, and there is oil and water in our stomachs!"

"Completely two different things. You will know later when you taste it!"

Peng Yue smiled confidently.

They stayed with His Highness the Crown Prince and ate mutton and pork as they pleased every day, and never had a bad taste.

But when they tasted locusts, they were shocked!

"That's okay!"

The soldiers went out one after another to catch locusts.

Rather than catching it, it’s better to say picking it up!

The flowers, plants and trees in the city, everything that the locusts could eat, had been eaten up by them.

As soon as the soldiers went out, they attracted the attention of the locusts and immediately pounced on them!

The soldiers just need to keep picking it off their bodies and put it in their bags!

After a while, bags of locusts were sent to the Huotou Army!

A pan of oil was also set up, and the locusts were simply treated and put directly into the pan!

The warm fragrance continued to spread, shocking the soldiers!

"Huh? Are you sure this is the scent emitted by locusts?"

"I guess so?"

The soldiers were doubtful until pots of fried, golden and crispy locusts were placed in front of them.

"Good guy, now that I have grown up, I realize that this thing can actually be eaten?"

"As if no one knows! We haven't even heard of it!"

Smelling the attractive fragrance, the soldiers immediately started to attack the fried locusts.

"Yeah! Delicious!"

“It smells so good!”

Same as Wang Li and others.

The attitude of the soldiers changed from initial resistance to enthusiasm, and finally they couldn't stop at all.

I even threw away the chopsticks, just grabbed a handful with my hands and stuffed it into my mouth. This was the best way to enjoy it!

Soon, the first batch of locusts were eaten.

Seemingly feeling unsatisfied, the soldiers went out again to catch locusts for the second time.

After tasting the sweetness of locusts, the soldiers caught more. Looking at their posture, they were ready to eat a lot!

"Hahaha! If this continues, we will eat up these locusts in a few days!"

Seeing the enthusiasm of the soldiers, Han Xin finally smiled.

"Report..."

At this moment, soldiers wearing armor hurried in.

"General, the envoys from the Mauryan Dynasty are here again!"

"Sending envoys again? Their elephant army and army have been defeated by us. Why send envoys now? Is it possible that they still want to return to their land? Haha!"

Before Han Xin could speak, Peng Yue laughed mockingly.

"Hmph! Before, they had millions of troops so they could arrogantly ask for land! Now they have nothing, why do they expect to get land? They are probably here to ask for peace!"

Meng Yun has a different opinion.

"Huh! No matter which one, I can't agree to it!"

"Yes! You can't even agree to them!"

Yingbu, Wang Li and others followed closely, indignantly.

"General Han, we are going to attack Fahrenheit City next, why bother with them? Just kill them!"

Fan Kuai got angry again and made a suggestion.

"No! It's still the same sentence. The two countries are at war. If you don't kill the envoys, let's listen to what they have to say first!"

Han Xin waved his hand and rejected his proposal.

"Go! Bring them in!"

"yes!"

After receiving the order, the general turned around and went out. After a while, he returned with a few dark-skinned guys.

Before either party could speak, these guys saluted everyone, much more polite than last time!

"Hmph! Stop doing these useless things. If you have something to say, just say it!"

Even if Han Xin refused to kill them, Fan Kuai didn't have a good impression of these niggas.

"Jiligulu..."

After another translation, the envoy nodded slightly to express his understanding, and then seemed to explain something. The translator also nodded repeatedly and said to Han Xin: "My king already knows everything that happened to the Qin army! It was your aggression that angered Han Xin.

Locust God, now the Locust God has sent an army of locusts to stop you. I hope you can retreat and stop the invasion. Otherwise, the Locust God will send more locust armies to eat up your food and grass and bite your horses.

You're starving to death here!"

"What? If you can, tell me again?"

Fan Kuai also thought that they came to seek peace, but he did not expect that what they said was so strong. He immediately went up to beat them, but was finally stopped by the people around him.

This is the big tent, and Han Xin is the commander-in-chief. They must act according to orders and cannot let the enemy see their jokes!
