Lan Ke handed the task of hunting the ant beast to Jun Tianheng, and then a strange scene occurred.
In front, Jun Tianheng led the freshmen to hunt ant beasts.
At the back, folding tables were arranged in a long line, and Lan Ke led the remaining one hundred freshmen to process the ant beast meat.
First, the anteater's shell is cut open, the edible meat is taken out and placed in a storage box, the inedible parts are thrown aside, and the shells are piled separately.
After taking the meat, Lan Ke instructed the freshmen to process the meat, either cutting it into thin slices, cutting it into shreds, or chopping it into minced meat.
Lan Ke also specially picked out some tender meat, cut it into square chunks, and chilled it in ice, preparing to make it into sashimi.
Fish sashimi has existed in ancient China. The so-called "sashimi" means sashimi and "barbecue" means grilled meat, both of which were extremely popular among people at that time.
It was only later that sashimi was introduced to the Eastern Island Countries and was vigorously promoted, so much so that some people in later generations of China mistakenly believed that sashimi originated from the Eastern Island Countries.
Lan Ke pinched it with her fingers. The ant beast meat was tender and had a light fragrance. It would surely be great if made into sashimi.
Jun Tianheng led the freshmen to kill two groups of ant beasts. Because the frequency of the ant beasts appeared became higher and higher, some freshmen gradually couldn't bear it anymore and had to retreat to the back, and Lan Ke was asked to help.
The freshmen who were replaced felt embarrassed to just sit there and do nothing, so they, under the leadership of other freshmen, started to process the new ant beast meat.
Gradually, the freshmen cooperated better and better.
Lan Ke and Jun Tianheng became the main force in hunting ant beasts. With them, the freshmen who were still on the front line had a chance to catch their breath, and no one retreated to the back.
The killing lasted until noon.
It's time to return to the team.
All the killed anteaters were processed, and the meat and shells were taken back to the military base, while the inedible parts were thrown away on the spot.
This is not littering. Insects and beasts are rampant in the no-man's land. The smell of these things will quickly attract new insects and beasts, and they will be cleaned up in no time.
On the way back, the freshmen were extremely excited.
They had watched the previous military training videos of Yunlan Military Academy's freshmen, and they had a good idea of what to expect. Since the founding of Yunlan Military Academy, their freshmen's military training was definitely the best!
"We are so lucky this time. We actually met such tough guys like Captain Lan and Captain Jun!"
"Yeah, the captains are really awesome!"
"If it weren't for the captain, we wouldn't have achieved such a good result."
The results of the freshman military training are very important to them, and can even affect their entire future life! This freshman military training is their best resume, which can make them superior no matter where they go.
Thinking about the future, everyone nodded heavily: "Yes, this time it's all thanks to the captain!"
But gradually, some people's minds turned to the side.
"What do you think the captain will give us?"
"Um, it should be the anteater meat, right?"
"Can you eat anteater meat? That's an anteater!"
"Captain Lan said it's okay, so it's definitely okay!"
"That's right! Anyway, I think the meat looks very tempting, and it makes me hungry just by looking at it."
"Yeah, I think so too. But don't you think it's strange? Why hasn't anyone thought of eating anteater meat before?"
As soon as this question was asked, everyone fell into deep thought.
Yeah, why didn’t anyone think of eating anteater meat before
After a depressing silence, someone said, "Those anteaters are so ugly, and their shells are so hard. If you hadn't cut open the shells, who would have known that the meat inside was so tempting?"
The others thought about it and nodded in agreement.
After all, the anteater is too ugly, with all the meat on its body wrapped in a shell. If the shell is not opened, who would know whether its meat is edible
We are used to taking nutritional supplements and pills. Those with better conditions at home can occasionally eat cultivated plants and farmed animals. Who would ever think of eating insects and animals
I just don’t know what the ant beast meat tastes like, it looks quite tempting.
A freshman nudged the classmate next to him and said, "Carlo, you've eaten farmed animals before, haven't you? What do you think of the meat of the anteater compared to the meat of farmed animals?"
"Hmm, let me think about it." Carlo thought for a long time and said uncertainly, "The meat of the anteater seems to be much more tender than the farmed animal meat I ate that time. I don't know whether it tastes good or not."
After he said this, all the other freshmen became excited.
"Captain Lan said she would cook it herself. She should be a good cook, right?"
"Should I? Those crawfish are delicious!"
"Hey, stop talking. I'm starving. You're reminding me of this now."
The freshmen all swallowed their saliva, obviously remembering the taste of crayfish.
After a while, someone sighed and said, "I wonder how the anteater meat compares to the crayfish."
"It shouldn't be comparable, right? It's an insect beast after all. It's good enough to be edible. How can it taste that good?"
"You don't believe in Captain Lan? Anyway, I don't care. I believe in Captain Lan's ability."
"I believe in Captain Lan too!"
"I believe too!"
"And I, too, believe it!"
These freshmen rushed to express their opinions, licking their lips as they spoke. It was unclear whether they really believed in Lan Ke or were just craving for meat.
When they returned to the military base, everyone was taken to the large training ground again.
The training ground had a large space, so Lan Ke unceremoniously had people set up cooking utensils and prepared to show off his skills here.
The kitchen utensils were prepared early in the morning. Her identity was special and Yunlan Military Academy relied on her to attract viewership, so they naturally would not refuse.
After the kitchen utensils were put on display, Lan Ke picked some freshmen to help her.
At the same time, the officers were gathered upstairs, staring with wide eyes.
Lan Ke took out the fern and began to arrange the tasks.
She was responsible for washing vegetables, boiling water, marinating meat, and providing seasonings. The freshmen were already accustomed to following her orders and helping her, and everything went on in an orderly manner.
Bracken contains trace amounts of toxins, so it needs to be rinsed for a while after blanching. Taking advantage of this time, Lan Ke had people set up baking trays, distributed marinated anthill meat slices and seasonings, and had a self-service barbecue.
Some restaurants in the Empire also have barbecue buffets, but the seasonings they use are different from hers, and the prices are quite high for these freshmen, so no one has ever tried it.
So as soon as the baking tray was taken out, the freshmen were all excited.
Lan Ke grilled a piece of ant beast meat first. The ant beast meat was very tender and cut into thin slices, which were crystal clear and very beautiful. Lan Ke first brushed a layer of oil on the baking tray, then put the meat slices on it with chopsticks. As soon as the meat slices touched the hot oil, they immediately made a "sizzling" sound, followed by a diffuse fragrance.
Lan Ke brushed a layer of oil on the meat slices, turned them over, and the meat slices were quickly cooked. She picked them up with chopsticks and put them to her mouth, taking a light bite. After chewing them carefully, an indescribable taste spread across her tongue.
