"There are no women among these refugees, young or old." Liu Yunxiang nodded.
Zijin and Feng Zheng thought about it carefully, and they really didn't see the woman.
"What's going on?" Zijin asked in confusion.
Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "I don't know, but maybe this is the reason why these refugees are unwilling to leave here and go north."
As he was talking, he heard a lot of noise downstairs.
Feng Zheng was about to go out to take a look when the man came up first.
"Guests, please check the doors and windows before going to bed at night, and close them carefully. The front and back doors of our inn are locked, and we do not open the door at night. I hope you will understand."
Yan Mu asked: "But what happened?"
"The refugees from outside the town are coming here, but there are soldiers from the military camp guarding them, so they can't break in. I'm just saying this just to be safe."
Liu Yunxiang nodded, "We understand."
After the guy left, Yan Mu opened the window and looked on the street. He found that all the shops on the street were closed and there were only soldiers patrolling the street.

Nothing happened that night, and early the next morning, they were escorted to the military camp by a small group of soldiers from Bian Nan.
Coming out of the town, Liu Yunxiang opened the curtains and saw soldiers in armor guarding the outside. There were several corpses piled nearby, but judging from their tattered clothes, they were the refugees.
Liu Yunxiang frowned, and when he looked back, he saw the corpse of a refugee tied to a pillar. He was hacked to death with a knife, and his death was miserable. Looking more closely, this man was not the leader of the group of refugees who robbed them during the day. They called him "Brother Shui".
"They are all unarmed ordinary people, and you are soldiers in the army. Even if you want to prevent them from entering the town, you should not kill them." Liu Yunxiang suppressed his anger and said to the soldiers next to him.
The soldier hurriedly replied: "There is nothing we can do. If we don't be tougher, they will break in, and the people in the town will suffer."
"If the nearby towns had accepted the refugees and resettled them from the beginning, the situation today would not have occurred."
"Back to the Crown Princess, the court has no rules and regulations, and there is nothing we can do about it below."
Yan Mu narrowed his eyes, "The imperial court once ordered the thirteen cities in the south of the border to receive refugees. Why is there no charter?"
The deputy general was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that there was a young man dressed up sitting in the carriage with him, and it was him who said this. Isn't it appropriate for the young man and his mistress to ride in the same car?
The lieutenant turned his mind for a few times, thought of something, and quickly calmed down, "This subordinate is stupid, I don't know..."
"Whatever I ask you, you answer it!"
"Yes." The deputy general thought for a moment and said: "We at the Biannan Military Camp don't know whether the imperial court has issued an order to the thirteen cities in Biannan. The consequence of the military and political incompetence is that each one operates independently. Facing these refugees, what can we do? The purpose is to prevent them from killing, robbing and robbing people in other places."
Yan Mu lowered his eyes. The military and political problems were unclear. That was because the Thirteen Cities had received orders from the court, but they did not carry them out.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away, each one is in charge of his own affairs and each is his own king.
The group of people walked to a forest, and the deputy general told his men: "Buck up, there are often Southern Jin cavalry in this area, we can hide if we can."
When Liu Yunxiang heard this in the carriage, he was speechless for a while, "This is the territory of Da Rong. Just let the Southern Jin cavalry run rampant, and hide as long as you can!"
Yan Mu took a deep breath and said, "General Su has been guarding Biannan for decades. He has strict military discipline and uses his troops like a god. He has kept Darong South Gate safe for decades. What exactly has he gone through to make this brave and capable army?" It became what it is now.”
At this time, a soldier who was exploring the road came back and reported: "General Li, a small group of Southern Jin cavalry is coming this way."
Lieutenant General Li was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly: "There is a fork in the road ahead, let's take the path!"
"I'm afraid it's too late."
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, he faintly heard a cry for help. When he got closer, he heard it more clearly. It was coming from a woman. Then there was the sound of iron hooves and rough laughter.
"Quick, everyone uses the carriage as a guard in the surrounding area!"
The deputy general gave the order, and the soldiers hurriedly surrounded the carriage and raised their spears toward the outside.
Yan Mu opened the car curtain and saw a dozen women escaping in a hurry on the road ahead. They were women and children, all with frightened faces. There was a group of cavalry chasing behind them. In fact, the distance was already very close. They could catch up with these women as long as they speeded up a little. But they seemed to enjoy the thrill of chasing prey, laughing and chasing.
At this time, the leader picked up his bow and arrow and shot an arrow at the older woman who was running the slowest.
The arrow hit the vital point, and the woman died.
Seeing this, the others ran even harder. Seeing the Daerong Army Camp here, they hurriedly shouted for help.
"Vice General Li, why don't you save people!" Liu Yunxiang shouted at the deputy general.
The deputy general said: "Da Rong wants to have peace talks with Southern Jin. There must be no conflict at this time. If the peace talks are serious, we don't have enough heads to chop them off."
"Then you just watch the people of Da Rong being killed?" Yan Mu asked coldly.
The lieutenant lowered his head, but still made no move.
At this time, many refugees rushed out of the forest. They held wooden sticks in their hands and waved them randomly, using their flesh and blood to resist the Southern Jin cavalry. Soon, many refugees were trampled under the iron cavalry, but they still protected the women and asked them to escape quickly.
Yan Mu took a deep breath and ordered Zijin to protect Liu Yunxiang, and then he took Feng Zheng over there.
There were about twenty people on the other side, all of them strong and strong, controlling the horses that had been born. Seeing that Yan Mu and Feng Zheng were masters, several of their companions were pulled off their horses. The leader ordered his followers to surround the two of them. , adopting a combined attack tactic.
After all, Yan Mu and Feng Zheng were the only two of them, and they couldn't help but suffer losses.
At this time, several men wearing shorts and holding broadswords began to attack the Southern Jin people from the outside. The formation immediately became chaotic, and Yan Mu and Feng Zheng also took the opportunity to fight back.
The leader of these people is a fair-faced, beardless young man with a handsome appearance and strong martial arts skills. After he and Yan Mu killed one of the other party, they decided to capture the thief first and capture the king first.
They split up and attacked the leader together, killing him quickly.
When the soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty saw that their leader had been killed, they hurriedly fled.
"We can't let them go back to report the news!" the white-faced man shouted.
He and his men chased them out and fought fiercely, finally killing all these Southern Jin soldiers.
Yan Mu looked at the corpses all over the ground. There were refugees, soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty, and people brought by the white-faced man. It was really a fierce battle.
The refugees seemed to be afraid of the soldiers in the military camp, so they hurriedly protected the women and ran into the woods. After a while, they disappeared.
"General Wen, you are in big trouble!"
Then Lieutenant General Li stepped forward and counted the killed Southern Jin soldiers, "The Southern Jin Dynasty will definitely pursue the case. How will the general explain?"
It turned out that the white-faced man was a general from the Bian Nan military camp. Yan Mu smiled faintly and said, "The people have been killed. All they need to do is eliminate the corpses and eliminate all traces."
