Pull the noodles to the Frunze
Text/Li Jianyin
A few days ago, I made breakfast at home, which was actually noodles under the mushroom soup, and my grandson commented that "it is very fragrant". I blew it for him, it wasn't much. Almost twenty years ago, Grandpa made ramen Frunze! My grandson asked me where Frunze was, and I proudly told him that in Moscow, the capital of Russia, it is a world-famous military academy that has trained many world-famous generals, and there are also marshals of our country who once graduated here.
In accordance with the agreement between China and Russia, I studied at the Joint Academy of the Russian Armed Forces, the historically famous Vron Academy. Although the study system is only half a year, the content of the arrangement is very rich, basically covering the understanding and grasp, prediction and response, application and shaping of the World Strategic Pattern by the Russian state and army; the basic judgment, mission objectives, strategic guidance, combat preparation, and the general content of overseas operations in Russia's national strategy and army development and construction strategy; Russia's main research on NATO is mainly the operational guidance, operational command, military revolution, special operations, overseas garrison and application of the United States and its armed forces The development and application of the Russian military branches, the main methods and methods of Russian military combat training, the development status and operational application of Russian weapons and equipment, especially in air defense and anti-missile defense. There are lectures, discussions, digestion, and review after class; there are visits to the joint exercises of multiple services and arms in the local area, on-site operations of the chief headquarters, special exercises on overcoming rivers and rivers, and on-site visits to air defense equipment; visits to the exhibition of weapons and equipment of the air and space forces; and practice in the operation of some equipment. He has visited military barracks, stayed in companies, experienced 3 days of soldiers' food, and participated in discussions with Russian officers and soldiers. He had a brief exchange with senior Russian generals such as Senior Russian General Kvashnin, chief of the Russian Army's General Staff, who was currently directing the exercise, and the commander of the Moscow Military District. Final assessment, open-book interview, three sessions of triage, on-the-spot scoring. Fortunately, I got a 5 and a "Ochin, Harashao" rating.
Speaking of which, not only have I eaten foreign bread, drunk foreign ink, had some superficial experiences, had an unforgettable experience, and had some personal thoughts. What is really meaningful is to observe the world for individuals, and to understand the world, especially for military strategy, campaigns, and tactics. In particular, we have greatly helped and improved our own efforts to grasp the troops, conduct training, manage equipment, and so on. Many years have passed, but the thoughts are still endless.
Writing about cooking can only be a half-year experience of forcing Liangshan.
In late July 2002, when I was guiding training in an armored regiment, I learned that the head of the party committee of the military region had decided to recommend me to study at the Frunze Military Academy in Russia for half a year. The first is language. Russian is in high school to learn the alphabet and simple sentence patterns, the other will not be; the troops have learned to shout on the battlefield, but also only pay the gun and do not kill and other content, after going to the class is a big problem. The second is diet. Growing up from snack flour, facing foreign bread, how to adapt or solve? Comrades who have studied abroad told me that they can do it themselves. So I began to prepare, the family prepared yeast powder in Jiuquan, I conducted a simple internship, and initially learned how to steam steamed steamed buns. When they arrived in Beijing, they prepared rolling pins and other drinking utensils and kitchen utensils, and hurried to Russia.
On August 31, 2002, after more than 9 hours of flight, at 5 p.m. Moscow time, we arrived at the dormitory of the Frunze Military Academy, and we were first faced with how to solve the problem of dinner. Fortunately, comrades who have studied abroad for a long time have prepared a simple dinner, so that we have the first meal at the bottom. The next morning they had to leave early for school, and we had to attend the opening ceremony, so that we could only solve the breakfast with bread and not affect the overall action of the students. Lunch was taken by the interpreter to the canteen of the teaching area to eat a meal made by Russians, which was quite fresh, but the taste did not dare to compliment. After class, we took the subway back in 45 minutes, and before entering the dormitory area, the translator took us to familiarize ourselves with the small shops on the street, identified the big shopping malls in the distance, and gave us guidance on purchasing staple food.
Chinese especially me, the Northwest Hanzi Northwest Soldier, purchased flour produced in Russia, packed in paper bags, starting with a minimum of 1 kg, I bought 2 kg. Coupled with basic supplies such as rice and milk, it can guarantee basic life. Vegetables, whether it is variety or quantity, can not be measured by domestic standards at all, anyway, there are, as for the rest can not be calculated. Our geographical environment is not clear, and we can only count as having food. Later, of course, you can go to the "Vietnam Market", Arbat Avenue Chinatown, Kiev Station Market and the farther frozen fish market, or go to the free market in the suburbs on Sundays, of course, there are slightly more varieties, and of course more items can be purchased. This does not include the case of a pound of celery on New Year's Day for 140 yuan.
With noodles, this gives me a good time to try my hand.
The first is to start making noodles, try to prepare with yeast powder, after reaching a few times, roughly grasp the essentials, can guarantee that Comrade Zhang Liang, who cooks with me, has steamed bread to eat every day, and can eat more than twice a week, both with a pressure cooker, but also with the local electric oven baked out of the green onion cake, as long as 8 minutes, to ensure that the cooked through, eat fragrant. As for dumplings and buns, there have been several times, sometimes eating is sweaty, sometimes come to classmates, show it, it is also hot. Especially after school every day, after returning to the dormitory, taking off thick winter clothes, changing into pajamas and pajamas, I began to go to the restaurant and noodles to prepare for eating noodles for the evening.
After more than an hour, according to the recording to review the content of the lecture, after completing the class notes, I entered the restaurant with Lao Zhang, he prepared the side food, and I was responsible for the staple food. At this time, Lao Zhang put his usual level at home to the fullest, and prepared a variety of cold dishes that were particularly delicious, especially taking care of me, who likes to eat sour and spicy in the northwest, even if he didn't eat spicy seeds himself, he had to make a plate of chili for me, so that I could call delicious rice and dishes fragrantly. I was touched that once we participated in the exercise organized by the Moscow Military Region, went to a village market, saw the red spicy horns for sale, and Lao Zhang immediately bought back a large bag and guaranteed that I would eat for several months. According to the knowledge I learned at home, I mixed the noodles and put them next to the heating to prevent the noodles from freezing and not operating well. Then keep kneading, pulling, pulling, kneading, and kneading until it is completely possible to stretch freely in the hand. At this time, the noodles are pulled into sections, smeared with some oil, and put in the basin to continue to put again. Wait until the dish is fried, the water is boiling, at this time, I put on the board, use my hand to take out the noodles, gently press it, and then lift it, and the two hands use even strength to slowly pull it open. Wait until two back and forth, according to the Lanzhou people to pull two, then the noodles on the board to shake a little, hear the noise, pull again from the middle, put into the pot, wait until the soup is boiled, through the second light of water, immediately fished out, poured on the prepared whistle, sometimes tomato scrambled eggs, sometimes meat fried other dishes, sometimes fried eggplant plus west pepper, I added from the country to bring red pepper or old dry mother yan, a little raw garlic is of course delicious. The food is full of spicy, sweaty, full of Thai, called a comfortable. Lao Zhang, who is not good at eating noodles, must be more than one bowl, and I will pass the post in two bowls and add noodle soup. Five days a week of class, at noon to bring food, I can and Comrade Zhang to do the staple food is not the same, in this half a year, I and Comrade Lao Zhang prepared the staple food can not only ensure that they eat themselves, sometimes for the students to taste, but also brought to the Cruise Ship from Moscow, to the Russian city of Mormansk in the Arctic, and also to the train to Stalingrad.
At least in our classmates, my level of noodle making is famous, so that everyone has the requirement to eat, I can't put up any shelves, as long as there is time, I can make a meal of noodles for everyone to eat. Even if people in China conduct the final assessment of our studies and let our students manage the meal, it is also prepared by me. Everyone ate several large pots of noodles, and the evaluation was quite high. I know for myself that people are not measured by connoisseur standards, but by encouraging moods, and it is also a good requirement to be able to eat abroad, but for me, this is always an unforgettable experience.
Men in Shaanxi usually don't cook, as if it were tradition. When I grew up in the countryside, I just ate and didn't care. At home, there is a mother who prepares ready-made meals, and there are wheat noodle steamed buns, corn flour nests, and sweet potato dumplings prepared by the mother at school. There are production teams sent to cook at the construction site, canteens for the commune work, and the village residents will eat pie meals from door to door. I was able to cook a few meals, cook raw food, and make noodles abroad, all because the great army educated me, trained me, and sent me to study abroad. Moreover, because of the country's reform and opening up, the people's living standards have improved, there is grain for you to do, there is flour to make, and the supply is not as good as the rural elderly who are afraid that children will waste food.
Retired, occasionally cook a meal, but it is no longer possible to go to the Frunze Military Academy in Moscow to make noodles!
