These beggars were talking to each other, and Fang Xiaoyue had a clear idea of the current situation.
As the beggars said, as Beiyue's army went to attack the capital of Pinggui Kingdom, this county town, as an important logistics base, was extremely tightly defended.
Not to mention beggars, even normal people walking on the street will be caught without paying attention.
After they were caught, they were taken away and beheaded.
Extremely efficient!
This is also why the beggar at the head said that Fang Xiaoyue didn't want his life.
This actually made Fang Xiaoyue's face turn slightly red. She thought it was wrong. She couldn't pretend to be a beggar.
Of course, if you want to pretend to be a wealthy businessman, you can't be a member.
Here, the sword is in power, and beggars and refugees will be beheaded, and even wealthy businessmen and officials will probably not end well.
After all, they are not from the Beiyue Kingdom, they are just livestock on the land occupied by the Beiyue Kingdom.
The Beiyue Army could kill whenever they wanted, without worrying about the public sentiment at all.
It was still daytime, and Fang Xiaoyue had nowhere to go, so she could only follow these beggars back to their lair, a few holes dug in the wild.
Beggars are not actually beggars. They make a living by catching mice, picking fruits, and digging through dilapidated villages.
No way, in Suping County now, even if you want to beg, you can't find a good person to beg for.
It must be said that the Beiyue Army patrolled very closely around the county during this period. Before they could reach the potholes in the field, a group of Beiyue Cavalry roared in from the distance.
Seeing that they were being targeted by the Beiyue Cavalry, a group of beggars trembled with fear and fell to the ground one by one.
Fang Xiaoyue originally wanted to commit murder, but was pulled directly to the ground by a beggar.
"Don't move. They are just playing tricks on us. If we move, we will really die."
Before the beggar finished speaking, he heard the sound of arrows, and those Beiyue cavalry fired a wave of arrows from a distance.
The arrows landed scatteredly around the beggars, and even Fang Xiaoyue couldn't help but sweat breaking out on her back.
Although his current defense is amazing, if an arrow hits his eyes, neck and other vital parts, it is difficult not to be injured.
When the arrows fell and the beggars made no move, the Beiyue cavalry laughed and clapped their horses and left.
Of course, Fang Xiaoyue's thoughts were different from those of these beggars.
Those Beiyue cavalry were probably not just to tease them, but to test whether there were any spies among the beggars.
The falling arrow puts a lot of pressure on people.
If there are spies, the psychological pressure will inevitably be greater, and it is easy to be frightened and flee in panic from arrow attacks.
However, it may be that the beggar was too frightened to escape, but in this case, those Beiyue cavalry would not say sorry, but would just chase him and kill him.
In times of war, human life is so worthless.
As soon as the Beiyue Cavalry left, the beggars breathed a sigh of relief and pulled Fang Xiaoyue and ran all the way back to the pit.
When they arrived at the pothole, they huddled into the pothole one by one and ate the food they found. As for sharing it with Fang Xiaoyue, there was none.
They felt that they had saved Fang Xiaoyue's life, and it was Fang Xiaoyue who should repay them.
This made Fang Xiaoyue dumbfounded.
But it was still early, so he wasn't hungry.
Fang Xiaoyue didn't dig a hole, so she found a relatively lush grass and shrunk her body inside.
With his current extremely strong energy and blood, and it being the height of summer, he would not be afraid of the cold even at night.
The beggars snored one by one after eating.
Time passed while waiting, and it was already dark. The beggars woke up from their deep sleep one by one. They crawled out of the holes one after another, and started hunting with their friends.
Well, to put it bluntly, it means going out to look for food.
It is more convenient for them to forage during the day, but it is safer to forage at night.
After all, those Beiyue patrols would not go to those dilapidated villages at night, and the night undoubtedly gave them protection.
Fang Xiaoyue had no intention of following them to dig through the garbage. Once the beggars left, he left the grass and ran towards the county town.
When he came out this time, he had already conceived a plan.
The overall idea is to paralyze the Beiyue Army's rule in Suping County.
Before, he was thinking of killing the commander-in-chief of the Beiyue Army, but now it seems that it is very difficult to find that commander.
Then attacking the county town became his only goal.
As for the rest, once the Beiyue Army's rule here is shaken, it will be much easier to handle.
In the night, Suping County, illuminated by a few torches on the city wall, looks like a giant beast lurking in the night.
A well-drained moat tightly surrounds the city wall.
This moat dried up before the Beiyue Army captured the county. It was originally connected to the Suping River, but due to the disrepair of the river channel, the river channel connected to it was silted up.
However, the county magistrate had no intention of rebuilding the river at that time, so the Beiyue Army was extremely relaxed when they attacked the city.
I just don’t know if the county magistrate had any regrets when he committed suicide by hanging from a beam.
But now the Beiyue Army has no plans to rebuild the river, so the moat has been drying up, which is convenient for Fang Xiaoyue.
Avoiding the patrols outside the city, Fang Xiaoyue crossed the moat, quietly approached the city wall, and then climbed up while grabbing the dilapidated city wall.
The gaps between the bricks on the city wall are like cracks. Even an average strong man, let alone Fang Xiaoyue, can climb up with some effort.
Just when he was approaching the female wall, a group of patrol soldiers came over, and Fang Xiaoyue was like a monkey hanging outside the city wall.
When the patrolmen passed by, he immediately turned over and, like a big bird, crossed the city wall and swooped down towards the city.
The city wall was about twelve meters high, about three stories high. But Fang Xiaoyue relied on her special ability as light as a feather, like a feather flying down, and finally landed silently on a small street.
Well, the county seat of Suping County is actually not that big, with a total population of less than 5,000. A Zhengyang Road crosses the entire county from the East City Gate to the West City Gate, and then there are several small streets like branches from the Zhengyang Road. The Yangdao extends out and connects the entire county.
Most of the houses in the county are of brick and wood structure, and a few are of all-wood structure.
Here, only the rich and powerful can afford to live in all-timber houses.
But in any case, due to the Beiyue Army's rampage in the county a few months ago, the county has become extremely desolate.
Fang Xiaoyue walked through the small street. The wooden doors of the houses on both sides of the street were all broken. Some had marks of being hacked by swords and guns, and some had the entire wooden door falling off. He could easily smell the strong smell of blood and the evil smell of rotting corpses coming from all around. Stink.
