Cheng Yaojin looked around, then said mysteriously to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, I have discovered something good in the logistics department."

He looked as if he had discovered some rare treasure, his eyes sparkling with excitement. His gaze kept drifting towards the logistics department, where there were several large tents and soldiers busily moving supplies around them.

Cheng Yaojin felt a tickle in his heart, eager to share this amazing discovery with Li Shimin.

Li Shimin couldn't help but find Cheng Yaojin's appearance amusing. "What do you want to tell me? Just say it."

Li Shimin shook his head helplessly. He knew that once Cheng Yaojin made any new or interesting discoveries, he would be as eager as a child to share them.

However, he was also curious about what could possibly excite Cheng Yaojin so much.

Cheng Yaojin has always had a unique perspective; perhaps it really is something interesting.

Seeing Cheng Yaojin's excited expression, his fatigue seemed to lessen somewhat; he was infected by Cheng Yaojin's emotions.

Cheng Yaojin listened intently, and after confirming that there was no noise around him, he lowered his voice and spoke furtively.

"Your Majesty, when I went to the military medical office to get the cooling ointment, I discovered something interesting. The military doctors from Xianyang are eating something different from what we are eating!"

Cheng Yaojin's voice was low, but his tone was full of mystery. He thought to himself, this matter cannot be known by too many people.

It's a little secret that belongs only to him and His Majesty, at least for now.

When Li Shimin heard Cheng Yaojin say this, he was first taken aback, and then he couldn't help but laugh.

"You're a veteran in the military. Military doctors are already fed a grade higher than soldiers, so what's the difference? During a march, as long as you're full, that's enough. Why ask for so much?"

Li Shimin really didn't think it was a big deal. He looked around and saw some soldiers preparing dinner, with wisps of smoke rising and the air filled with the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes and corn.

He was very satisfied with the food his soldiers had provided during this march.

The most important thing is that the soldiers are well-fed and have the strength to march and fight.

During such a difficult march, having such food was already a rare treat.

The soldiers could feel the care and concern of the imperial court, and fought bravely for the Tang Dynasty.

Every meal includes sweet roasted potatoes, golden roasted corn, a bowl of steaming millet porridge, and a thick steamed bun.

For many soldiers, this kind of food was even better than what they ate at home.

Of course, he is now Li Ji's personal guard and has no special privileges. The only thing he eats is an extra steamed bun compared to ordinary soldiers.

That's all he ate; he was far from full, he was practically stuffed.

There were leftovers from every meal, and the leftovers were not wasted; they were given to the soldiers who were still hungry.

Such generous treatment would make the soldiers feel a greater sense of belonging and more willing to serve the Tang Dynasty.

The soldiers sat around the campfire, eating and chatting with laughter, a scene filled with warmth and contentment.

Li Shimin watched this scene with great satisfaction. He hoped that such scenes could be seen frequently in the army, so that soldiers could feel the warmth of home even amidst the cruelty of war.

Upon hearing Li Shimin's words, Cheng Yaojin immediately became anxious.

"Your Majesty, if it were ordinary food, I, Old Cheng, would not have come to discuss this with Your Majesty!"

He was so anxious that he stomped his feet, kicking up clouds of dust.

"Your Majesty, do you know what those military doctors eat?"

Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened, his face filled with urgency.

Seeing Cheng Yaojin's eagerness, Li Shimin's curiosity was piqued.

"Then tell me, what do they eat?"

Li Shimin moved closer to Cheng Yaojin, his eyes gleaming with curiosity.
