Chapter 407
Through Wu Ting's memory, Tang Yin knew that the captain of the Mo army was Pan Yuan, and he was quite righteous. He bowed and said, "Brother Pan, Brother Wu has mentioned you to me before, saying that you two have a life-long friendship..."
"Hey?" Pan Yuan waved his hand embarrassedly and said, "Brothers in robes, it's like a common thing to be together!"
"This time, I am responsible for escorting the grain to the county city, and I need Brother Pan to take care of it." Tang Yin said in a friendly way. Now he doesn't know anything about Pufeng City. If there is an acquaintance to take care of him, it would be great.
But after hearing what he said, Pan Yuan frowned. He looked around, pulled Tang Yin to deliberately slow down his pace, and whispered, "What? Do you still want to stay in the county city? After delivering the grain, you should go back to your village quickly!"
"Why is that?" Tang Yin blinked his eyes "naively".
Pan Yuan said sternly: "Don't you know that there will be a war here? It's a dangerous place, and people don't have time to leave, but you still insist on going in?"
Tang Yin hurriedly said: "I'm not afraid of death! Since I joined the army, I will either return home with honor or die on the battlefield. How can I escape from the battlefield?"
"Don't tell me those big truths!" Pan Yuan waved his hand impatiently, poked Tang Yin's helmet with his fingers, and said angrily: "Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? If a person dies, there will be nothing left. If it weren't for you being a fellow villager of Lao Wu, I wouldn't bother to tell you this!"
Tang Yin had never been poked in the head like this before, but fortunately Pan Yuan had good intentions, so he endured it. He was about to speak when General Mo came over and asked, "What are you talking about?"
"Ah, General Deng, it's like this. I think it's hard for the brothers to escort the grain all the way here. I want to keep them for lunch before sending them out of the city..."
Pan Yuan nodded and flattered. Before he finished speaking, Tang Yin pretended to be stupid and shouted loudly, "We don't want to leave! The wind bandits are coming soon. We want to defend the city with the brothers!"
His words immediately resonated with others. Cheng Jin and others who were dressed as Mo Jun and ordinary people nodded and said, "Captain is right! The wind bandits are hateful. They invaded our land. We can't coexist with the wind bandits!"
Hearing their words, Pan Yuan's nose was almost crooked with anger. It felt that his heartfelt words just now were talking to a cow. This Ma Wu, how could he be so ungrateful.
If he was the only one who was stupid, it would be fine, but why were all these people so stupid? Birds of a feather flock together! He quietly reached out his hand and twisted Tang Yin's lower back hard, signaling him to shut up quickly.
Tang Yin gritted his teeth in pain, and he really stopped talking. How could General Mo not see Pan Yuan's little action? After thinking about it, he understood what he meant.
He glared at Pan Yuan fiercely and said in a deep voice: "Now is the time to use people. These brothers all have the heart to serve the country. What's wrong? Pan Yuan, don't interfere!"
"General, they are just village soldiers. Where have they fought with others? How can they know the skills of defending the city? Once the wind and the enemy come, they will only get in the way and cause trouble for us!" Pan Yuan still wanted to make a final effort to send Tang Yin and others out of the city.
General Mo snorted and laughed, saying: "No one is born knowing how to fight. As long as they practice diligently, it will be fine. What's more, when the war breaks out, they can even transport supplies and help! All these brothers stay, you don't have to say anything more!" As he spoke, he waved his hands to the left and right and said: "Raise the drawbridge and close the city gate!"
It's over! Pan Yuan's heart sank. Now even if Ma Wu and his men wanted to leave, they couldn't.
Under the command of General Mo, Tang Yin and his men transported all ten carts of grain into the granary in the city. This large granary occupies an area at least the size of two or three basketball courts, and is seven or eight meters high. Looking inside, there are only a few narrow aisles in the middle, and the rest of the space is filled with baskets of grain. Tang Yin calculated that the current grain reserves are enough for 600,000 people to eat for three months, not to mention that grain from all over the country is still being transported to Pufeng City.
If the stockpiling continues like this, if the Mo soldiers are more frugal, they can hold Pufeng for half a year. If the war really gets to that point, their army will be dragged apart by the Mo army. If the Chuan Kingdom gets involved, they will definitely lose.
After all the grain was transported into the granary, General Mo gave a few more instructions, then turned and left, and the other Mo soldiers also dispersed.
Seeing Pan Yuan walking away angrily, Tang Yin hurriedly chased him and said with a smile: "Brother Pan, are you still angry about me insisting on staying in the city?"
"I don't let you stay in the city for your own good, but you treat my kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs!" Pan Yuan was angry at first, and then sighed heavily, looking around at Tang Yin and others, and said meaningfully: "You have never fought with the wind people, and you don't know how terrible the wind people are..."
"That's why I want Brother Pan to take care of me!" Tang Yin smiled nonchalantly.
Knowing that he still didn't listen to his words, Pan Yuan shook his head helplessly and said: "Let's go! I'll take you to find a place to stay!"
"Are we going to the military camp?" Tang Yin asked curiously.
"Military camp?" Pan Yuan was delighted. He pointed at the surrounding houses and said, "Now the entire county is a big military camp. Anyone can live in any house that is unoccupied. However, all the larger and good houses are already there." It’s full of people, so you can only live in a dilapidated house.”
"As long as there is a place to stay, we won't choose." Tang Yin said, patting his chest. As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something, reached into his arms, grabbed a handful of broken silver and copper coins, and said: "Brother Pan, brothers I came in a hurry and didn’t bring any gifts. These are just trivial things!” The money was all found from the Mo soldiers and civilians they killed.
Pan Yuan was not a person who was jealous of money. He pushed back the money handed over by Tang Yin and said: "You are Lao Wu's brothers, you are my brothers. Brothers don't talk like this among themselves."
Tang Yin looked at Pan Yuan in surprise. This man's character was indeed not bad, but it was a pity that he was a Mo Ren, not a Feng Ren.
The house Pan Yuan found for Tang Yin and others was pretty good. It was an independent courtyard with a main room and a side room. It could accommodate thirty or so of them even if they squeezed in. Although the inside is a bit shabby, it is still able to provide shelter from wind and rain.
Tang Yin and others were naturally grateful to Pan Yuan, and asked him if there was any restaurant in the city to invite him to dinner.
Most of the people in Bufeng City were moved away, but a small part of them stayed. In this large county, there are only about a dozen restaurants of all sizes that are still open.
Pan Yuan took them to a small restaurant nearby. The place was small but relatively clean. The proprietress who ran the restaurant was a woman in her early thirties. It was said that her husband died on the battlefield in Zhengzhong County and she was childless. Female widow.
The landlady has a good appearance, with fair skin and big watery eyes. She is particularly charming. In Bufeng City, where there are almost no women at present, the existence of the landlady is really "rare". Because of this, even if this small restaurant is a little remote and shabby, there are still many Mo Bings who come to patronize it. There is an endless stream of customers every day. If you have the opportunity, you can touch it, touch it, and say a few witty words to the landlady. , which is enough to keep Mo soldiers excited for a whole day.
When Pan Yuan entered the restaurant with Tang Yin, Cheng Jin, Letian, Asan and Asi, there were already more than a dozen Mo soldiers eating there.
There were no empty tables to sit at. Pan Yuan looked around and saw two Mo soldiers occupying a large table. He walked forward, patted them on the shoulders, and said, "Brother, help me, go to another table." A squeeze!”
When the two Mo soldiers heard this, their eyes immediately widened, but when they saw that Pan Yuan's breastplate was engraved with the captain's stamp, their momentum immediately softened.
This is how it is in the army. One level is superior to the other. The captain is a small official the size of a green bean, but he is still very intimidating to ordinary soldiers.
The two Mo soldiers were afraid of Captain Pan Yuan's identity, so even if they were unwilling to do so, they had no choice but to stand up, carry the dishes, bowls and chopsticks, and move to another table. Pan Yuan sat down, then waved to Tang Yin and others, saying: "Come, come, come! Come and sit!"
Tang Yin pretended to be timid and sat down, then asked in a low voice: "Brother Pan, do you know those two brothers?"
"How is that possible? There are hundreds of thousands of people, how can I know everyone?"
"Then why are they willing to give up their seats?"
Pan Yuan smiled, pointed back to the stamp on his chest, and said, "That's it." As he spoke, he also saw the captain stamp on Tang Yin's chest, and said, "Ma Wu, this is the Central Army, not like You village soldiers, captains and ordinary soldiers are all high or low. In the Central Army, it is very majestic to be a captain!" While speaking, he also deliberately puffed out his chest.
Tang Yin secretly laughed in his heart. A captain is very impressive. No matter which one of the five he chooses, he doesn't know how many levels higher than the captain. This Pan Yuan is a good person, but he still has a good reputation.
The more contact he had, the more he could see Pan Yuan's personality, and it became easier for Tang Yin to get words out of him.
At this time, a fragrant breeze came, and the proprietress of the restaurant came slowly. Since the restaurant is too small, the proprietress is working as both a waiter and a manager. Tang Yin turned around and saw the proprietress wearing a plain dress with the neckline slightly open, revealing patches of snow-white skin. In his impression, the folk customs in Mo Country were not open, and a woman dressed like this looked very frivolous. Presumably, this is one of the proprietress’ tricks to attract diners!
When Tang Yin looked at the landlady, the latter happened to see him, and her eyes couldn't help but light up.
Putting aside his inner qualities, just looking at his appearance, Tang Yin is indeed very attractive. He is beautiful and handsome, strong yet gentle, and his natural smile makes it easy for people to like him. Even men can't help but look at him more when they see him. A few glances, let alone a woman.
