Capítulo 75: Chapter 60: Calculations at the Temple on the Eve of Departure_2

Xiulote shook his head and continued to analyze the military situation from the drawings. He suddenly saw a very vivid shape.

"Is this yellow cluster a corn cake? There's one, two, three, four... twenty-five?"

"Hmm. This cluster represents the ready-made dry food, usually corn cakes. Normally, when stationed, the samurai can eat just two meals a day, one in the morning and one in the evening, each consisting of two cakes. On the march, a strong samurai needs at least three cakes per meal. And on the day before a battle, samurai need to accumulate more physical strength, so they will eat three meals, each consisting of more than three cakes."

The young man nodded, understanding that food supplies must precede the troops. Battles and marches consume more food. Marching rations must be light in weight and small in volume. The best choice is to make corn cakes, as they are convenient to carry and are dry and solid.
