Volume 10 Chapter 408

Chapter 408

Tang Yin smiled at the proprietress, nodded slightly, greeted Pan Yuan politely, and then said to Pan Yuan: "Brother Pan, just tell me what you want to eat, don't be polite to the brothers and read the full text."

"It's natural." Pan Yuan loosened his armor and said with a smile: "I am the last person to pretend." As he spoke, he raised his head and introduced to the landlady: "These are all my brothers. How about it? Everyone looks great!”

The landlady laughed, stretched out her hand, put it on Tang Yin's shoulder naturally, and said, "This little brother looks really energetic. He is even more handsome than Captain Pan."

"Haha!" Instead of being angry, Pan Yuan looked up and laughed and said, "In terms of appearance, I am far better than Brother Buma!" After a pause, he said again: "Lady boss, give me a plate of your bacon. The rest of the dishes are optional. As for the wine, here...a bottle is enough."

Although the Feng army has not yet reached Bufeng, it is still an extraordinary period, and Pan Yuan does not dare to drink more.

The proprietress smiled brightly and reminded: "Captain Pan, the price of bacon has increased now."

"The price has increased? How much is it?"

The landlady stretched out three fingers and said with a smile: "Three taels."

"Three liang? A while ago it was one liang..."

"There's nothing we can do about it!" the proprietress said innocently: "Now that the city is closed, the biggest shortage is meat. I'm just a small shop, so I can't lose money doing business!"

Even so, Pan Yuan still felt it was too expensive. You must know that Mo Bing's monthly military pay was less than two taels of silver. Although he was a captain, he only received two taels of silver a month, which was not enough to eat a plate of bacon!

When he was about to speak, Tang Yin waved his hand to stop him and said with a smile: "Three taels is just three taels, it's just a small amount of money, why should Brother Pan care about it?" As he spoke, he said to the proprietress: "Hurry up and order, we are all hungry. ”

"This little brother is more cheerful." While speaking, the landlady didn't forget to take a look at Pan Yuan, and said with a soft smile: "Much more generous than your big brother Pan." After saying this, she twisted her waist and walked away. .

It can be seen that Pan Yuan should be a frequent visitor here, at least he has a good relationship with the proprietress. Tang Yin asked casually: "Does Brother Pan often come here to eat?"

"I used to come here often, but now I can't. The price of vegetables has increased several times compared to before. How can poor soldiers like us who only rely on military pay come here every day!" Pan Yuan shook his head repeatedly.

His words immediately resonated with the nearby Mo soldiers. Everyone responded: "Yes, the price of everything in the county has increased, except for our military pay."

"Forget about military pay. When the Feng Army comes, it's not sure whether we can get out alive. I'm just afraid that we will have money and no place to spend it..."

Through the complaints of Mo soldiers, Tang Yin and others could also feel that the fighting spirit of ordinary low-level soldiers was not high. This was true for Pan Yuan and the same for others.

Tang Yin rolled his eyes and said, "You can't say that. Our military strength is no less than that of the Feng Army. What's more, the city's defenses are also very strong. As long as we have enough food and grass, we will definitely have no problem resisting the Feng Army."

Pan Yuan patted Tang Yin on the shoulder and said half sarcastically and half jokingly: "General Deng likes you the most, a high-spirited young man like you!"

Tang Yin pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Isn't it true? Isn't there enough food in the county? I see there is a lot of food in the granary!"

"What's the use of having more food and grass? Can food and grass replace us in the war?" Pan Yuan shook his head and said, "When all the people are gone, no matter how much food and grass is left, it will be prepared for Feng Ren."

Anyway, Pan Yuan doesn't have any hope for the upcoming battle with Bufeng.

Tang Yin still wanted to talk, but at this time, the landlady had brought food and wine.

A pot of 2 taels of rice wine and four plates of side dishes, including bacon, soy potatoes, stewed Chinese cabbage and fried celery. Apart from the bacon, there was not even a meat nail in the other three dishes, especially the last one. I didn't see anything except celery.

"Little brother, eat more. The dishes in our restaurant are not very good-looking, but they still taste good." The proprietress said to Tang Yin with a smile, and she leaned closer to him intentionally or unintentionally while talking.

Seeing this, Mo Bingma, who was eating around, showed dissatisfaction. Someone shouted loudly: "The boss lady is too unkind. Why can't she be so enthusiastic towards our brothers? Isn't it because of others?"

The lady boss straightened her waist without changing her expression, turned to look at everyone, and said, "If you also order these dishes and are willing to spend the money, I will be equally enthusiastic."

In one sentence, everyone was speechless. They are all ordinary soldiers. It is not easy for them to come to a restaurant for a meal, and they are willing to spend several taels of silver.

"Little brother, eat slowly. If you need anything, just call me." The landlady explained again before leaving.

Everyone else hoped that she could stay a little longer, but Tang Yin wished that she would leave as soon as possible.

After the landlady left, he winked at Le Angel. The latter understood, picked up the wine pot, filled the wine for everyone, and then called Pan Yuan to toast to drink. A jug of wine was only twenty taels, and the six of them shared it, not even the glasses were full. After just one round of drinking, the jug was empty. Lotte called the landlady and ordered six more bottles of wine in one go. Pan Yuan was startled, waved his hands repeatedly, and said: "No, no, don't drink too much. If General Deng finds out about this, we will all be beaten with sticks!"

"If we don't tell, and if Brother Pan doesn't tell, how will General Deng know!" Lotte is the head of Fengguo's intelligence agency. He is good at socializing with people. He is also very good at persuading people to drink. He even gives people a reason to refuse. Not found.

Hearing what he said was reasonable, Pan Yuan also loved wine, so he didn't stop him. Soon, six jugs of wine were delivered. Tang Yin and others each had a jug in their hands and chatted while drinking.

During this period, Tang Yin said seriously: "I think Brother Pan is too pessimistic. We have great hope of defeating the Feng Army. The county is so strong and we have so many people. As long as we have enough food and grass, the Feng Army will never be able to defeat us. "

Seeing Tang Yin shaking his head and talking, Pan Yuan could only shake his head secretly. Who can't talk on paper? But Feng Jun is not as simple as you imagined?

Seeing his disapproval, Tang Yin deliberately asked in a low voice: "Brother Pan is so unsure, is it because there is insufficient food in the city?"

"Not enough?" Pan Yuan was happy and sneered: "There is not much in the county now, but there is a lot of grain. If we and the Feng people don't have to fight and just compete with who has more grain, then we will definitely win!"

Hearing this, Tang Yin's heart moved. There was a lot of grain in Bufeng's granary, but it was not enough to make such a pessimistic Pan Yuan so confident!

Thinking of this, he pretended to be unconvinced and said: "I don't think so. Before the troops and horses are moved, food and grass go first. I think Feng Ren will not be short of food and grass!"

“No matter how many there are, there are not as many as we have!”

"The grain stored in the granary is at best..."

Before he could finish speaking, Pan Yuan said with a smile: "That's just part of it." At this point, he paused and looked to the left and right, and saw that the Mo soldiers eating around him had already left, and the remaining The few people who were there were also far away from him, so he lowered his voice and said: "There are also hidden warehouses in the county, and the grain stored there is no less than that in the open warehouse. This is a secret, brothers, please don't tell it. !”

There is also a secret warehouse! These words made Tang Yin take a breath, and Letian, Cheng Jin, Ah San, and Ah Si also frowned at the same time.

Tang Yin leaned towards Pan Yuan and asked softly: "Is there such a thing? Where did Brother Pan hear about such an important thing? Is it reliable?"

"Hehe!" Thief Pan Yuan said with a smile: "Brother, brother, have you forgotten what I do? Guard the city gate! Every day when food comes in and out, it has to pass through me. No one knows better than me how many grains are stored in the city. "After that, he straightened up, patted Tang Yin's shoulder hard, and said, "So, brother, you don't have to worry about food and grass. Even if we are trapped for a year and a half, as long as the Feng army cannot come in, we will I won’t starve to death... But I think we may not be able to hold off the Feng Army for that long. Brother, you have never fought against the Feng Army, but I have fought against them, brother. Those people are simply madmen with red eyes. …”

What Pan Yuanluo said next was all nonsense to Tang Yin. He didn't care about Feng Jun's combat power or what Mo Bing said about it. What he cared about was the secret warehouse Pan Yuan mentioned. Information is so important.

While pretending to listen carefully, he nodded in agreement from time to time. After finally waiting for Pan Yuan to express his emotion, Tang Yin sighed falsely: "Yes, after listening to what Brother Pan said, Feng Jun is indeed very powerful!"

"It's not just awesome, it's simply terrifying. To be honest, brother, when we were fighting with the Feng Army, many of our brothers here even wanted to die. They should die early and be relieved!" Pan Yuan shook his head and sighed.

At this time, Tang Yin also understood that Pan Yuan was one of the Mo army who retreated from Zeping County to Haowan County. This group of Mo army had been frightened by their own side, and it could be said that there was a shadow in their hearts. , in the future, whenever there is a confrontation with one's own army, a sense of fear will arise deep in the heart. Moreover, this group of Mo troops is quite large in number, numbering around 300,000.

This may be the "once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of well ropes" effect!

Tang Yin did not dare to ask too hastily for fear of arousing Pan Yuan's suspicion. He hinted that Lotte would like a few more bottles of wine and continued to drink with Pan Yuan.

Gradually, Pan Yuan's dark face turned dark red, and his eyes became a little blurry. Tang Yin felt that an opportunity had come, and then he pretended to be curious and asked: "Brother Pan, where is the secret warehouse you mentioned? I didn’t see any hidden warehouses in the city!”

"Haha!" Pan Yuan laughed and said: "Brother, since it is a secret warehouse, how can anyone see it! Not to mention that you have just entered the city, even the patrols who wander around the city every day don't know about the secret warehouse. Where is it!" As he spoke, he looked around again, poked his head, and said in an extremely low voice, "Actually, the dark warehouse is..."
