In fact, if you have never eaten the food cooked by Mrs. Wu, you will also think that this nutritional supplement tastes good.
After all, the nutrients on the barren planet always have a strange taste.
But after Ruan Linzhou said that the nutritional supplements here tasted very good, they began to look forward to them.
But when they ate it, it was not as delicious as they expected, and was completely incomparable to the roast chicken made by Old Mrs. Wu, so they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
It turns out that the Na'vi people eat food

Time flies. It has been six years since the conquest of Jiqing and the change of its name to Yingtian Prefecture.
In Yingtian Prefecture, Zhu Yuanzhang farmed for six years.
During the six years, Zhu Yuanzhang tried to march east to defeat Zhang Shicheng, but failed; he also fought with Chen Youliang for several moves, with both sides winning and losing.
To the south is Fang Guozhen, and to the north is Liu Futong.
They tried hard to expand their territory, but ended up having owners everywhere, and they were all powerful and it was impossible to take over.
It was just trapped in a small area centered on Yingtian, lacking strategic space and protection from dangerous terrain. The only thing to be thankful for was that the population was dense, the soil was fertile, and a 300,000-man army was trained.
However, due to the lack of strategic locations, a hundred thousand troops were needed to be stationed in various cities to guard the city. The number of troops that could actually fight in a mobile manner was less than two hundred thousand.
During these six years, Zhu Yuanzhang could only farm, farm, and farm, because he could not do anything else.
Because there are powerful enemies in the four directions of east, west, south and north, and we cannot defeat them, annex them, or expand our base.
We can only keep farming, with farming as our main life.
Apart from farming, there is nothing else to do to pass the time.
Zhu Yuanzhang had some military talent, otherwise he would not have been able to conquer Jiqing and become a local tycoon. However, Liu Futong, Chen Youliang, and even Zhang Shicheng were not inferior to him.
In governing the country, Zhu Yuanzhang was diligent and loved the people. He was good to the common people and did not burn, kill, or plunder. But Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng were also able to do the same and did it very well.
As for strategic layout and tactical adjustments, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed outstanding, but the others were not much inferior to him.
In terms of political tactics and intrigue, he was no worse than Zhu Yuanzhang.
Rising in troubled times and establishing one's own territory, who is worse than who?
There are no so-called fools, wastes, etc., because they have been eliminated long ago.
In most cases, they have excellent military and political talents, are diligent in their work and love their people, and have excellent strategic plans, but for some reason, they still fail in the end.
"Godfather, I have been farming for six years!"
On this day, Zhu Yuanzhang said dully, "The Red Turban Army in the north will march north to attack the Yuan Dynasty in three directions. One direction will attack Shandong, one direction will attack Shaanxi, and one direction will attack Dadu. Once Dadu is recovered, the north will be recovered and the Yuan Dynasty army will be driven out!"
"At that time, Liu Futong's army will occupy the north and move south. Then the whole world can be conquered!"
In the study, there is a huge map hanging with arrows on it, all of which show the scene of Liu Futong leading the Red Turban Army sweeping across the north.
The Yuan Dynasty army was defeated one after another like a rotten wood!
Zhu Yuanzhang was so excited that he wanted to go to the battlefield himself, but he couldn't do anything... He could only provide food and supplies to the Red Turban Army in the rear and use food and supplies to support the young Ming King.
The Red Turban Army was winning victory after victory, and it seemed that they would soon capture Dadu and retake the north.
"Looking at the situation in the world, who do you think you are like, Sun Quan or Qiantang King Qian Liu?" Xiang Yu said with a smile.
"Of course it's Qian Liu!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was unwilling in his heart, but Qian Liu was the best choice.
Sun Quan occupied the Jiangnan region, but was defeated repeatedly in the face of Cao Cao; as for the fact that he only occupied one-fifth of Jiangnan, he was far inferior to Sun Quan.
The territory under his command consists of only a dozen cities, with limited territory and limited military force.
He is much worse than Sun Quan and even much worse than Southern Tang.
On many levels, he is like Qian Liu, the King of Qiantang.
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the country was divided and there were many vassal kings.
Qian Liu rose to power in the turbulent times. He gradually occupied the thirteen states of Liangzhe, headed by Hangzhou, and was later named king by the Central Plains dynasty.
Because the Wuyue Kingdom was weak and had little territory, and was surrounded by powerful enemies on three sides, Qian Liu had no choice but to rely on the Central Plains Dynasty, respect the Central Plains Dynasty as the legitimate dynasty, and constantly send envoys to pay tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty in order to request protection.
During Qian Liu's reign, he adopted a policy of protecting the border and pacifying the people, so the economy was prosperous. He also reinforced dams in the Taihu Lake basin to prevent floods. He also encouraged farmers to continuously expand their fields, and there was a saying that no field was abandoned. Under his jurisdiction, the people lived a rich and happy life, with few natural disasters or man-made disasters. The country's economy developed very rapidly, and there were few wars on the border. The whole country was peaceful and stable, so the people loved and respected him very much. Later, the people of Liangzhe even gave him the title of Sea Dragon King, which shows how lofty his position was in the hearts of the people.
Following Qian Liu's teachings, the kings of later generations always paid tribute to the Central Plains dynasty. In the last days, Qian Hongchu adapted to the trend of the times and "surrendered the land to the Song Dynasty", thus achieving peaceful reunification of the country "without war".
The more I read through history books, the more similar they seem.
Different starts in life, same destiny.
Qian Liu was in a place surrounded by enemies on all sides, with a small territory and enemies on three sides. He had to rely on the dynasty in the north to survive. Similarly, he was also in a place surrounded by enemies on all sides, with a small territory and enemies on three sides. He also had to rely on Liu Futong in the north to survive.
Qian Liu vigorously developed water conservancy, appeased the people, and prospered the economy; similarly, he also vigorously developed water conservancy and cultivated land, so that the people lived a good life.
Finally, Qian Liu's descendants took refuge in the Song Dynasty and were treated well.
Now that he has joined the Young Ming King, it seems that he will be treated well.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, gave up the idea that he shouldn't have, and waited for Liu Futong to unify the north, drive out the Yuan Dynasty, and rebuild the Song Dynasty. At that time, he could surrender and become a Duke of Anle, which was actually not bad.
As for establishing imperial hegemony and becoming king or emperor... it was just a thought that flashed through his mind, and then he gave up.
Since ancient times, Nanjing has been the capital. Has there ever been a dynasty that achieved empire and unified the world?
None, most of them live in seclusion in one area.
They have occupied Jiangnan since ancient times, but has there ever been a successful Northern Expedition?
Not even one, even the awesome Yue Fei failed.
As for unifying the world and becoming emperor.
Zhu Yuanzhang would occasionally think about it, but then he would give up. As the saying goes, a person's ambitions are determined by the size of his base, the number of soldiers, and the amount of food he has.
The so-called ambition needs to be supported by a foundation and strength.
There are only a dozen cities in his territory and a mere 300,000 troops. They are more than enough for him to rule a region, but not enough to dominate the world.
As for now, I don't dare to claim to be the king... I'm afraid that the people around me will attack me and beat me up.
Occupying Yingtian Prefecture seemed to be the pinnacle of his life. He had been farming here for six years, but had made no progress and had limited room for development.
Various thoughts came to his mind, and Zhu Yuanzhang also made up his mind to be a loyal minister and filial son of the Little Ming King, and to be the Qiantang King Qian Liu.
…
However, a few months later, news came that the Red Turban Army in the north had been defeated.
The three armies of the Red Turban Army were defeated one after another by the Yuan Army. Some surrendered, some died in battle. The situation, which was originally very good, collapsed rapidly in an instant.
Not long after, news came that several armies of the Yuan Dynasty jointly besieged Bianliang. Liu Futong fought continuously but was ultimately defeated. In the end, he protected the young Ming King and fled to Anfeng.
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his hands and feet turned cold in an instant, as if his father had died.
I wanted to be Qian Liu, but Zhao Kuangyin was defeated, the Liao army occupied Bianliang, and the Song Dynasty was about to be destroyed. How could I still be a loyal minister and a filial son?
