Although Yicheng was bustling all day and night on the seventh day after the attack, the rebels kept their promise, and Micang was not asked to dig out the city again to collect soil.

Both Geng Hu and Mi Cang were somewhat surprised by this.

However, I heard that at night, the old and frail adult men and some particularly strong women in the old camp were also ordered to go to the city to fetch bricks and earth.

Yonekura worried about this all night.

The tightly managed camp at night prevented him from leaving his camp to learn anything about Old Man He.

But when another morning came, Yonekura quickly put all his worries behind him, and he had to pray for his fate again.

But this second time, Yonekura found that he was not as nervous as yesterday. He was even looking forward to his turn soon so that he could go back to rest early.

He realized that the difference between those who had experienced war and those who had not was obviously huge.

But looking at the still anxious faces around him, Yonekura felt that maybe he was wrong. Maybe only his own heart was stronger.

When he once again entered a hole in a city wall, Mi Cang was startled by the sudden opening of the inner space.

Nearly two feet deep, nearly one foot high at the top, and nearly ten feet wide, the huge cave is like a very large room with many doors, except that there are some thick earthen pillars and even temporary wooden pillars in the middle of this very large room.

Just support.

The progress of digging the city is unexpectedly fast!

When Yonekura ran back, he couldn't help but look back many times, and then confirmed again that the blocking measures taken in the city were indeed much lighter than yesterday.

It is very likely that the blood and resources of the defenders have been almost exhausted. After all, Yicheng is just a small city, with a very limited population and internal storage.

"The city will be destroyed today!"

This was the conclusion that came to Yonekang's mind.

Sure enough, after regrouping, they were ordered to fetch weapons and return again.

This shouldn't be considered a breach of trust, the final attack is about to come.

But when he got his weapons and lined up to prepare, Geng Hu's expression was very strange before he dictated the orders from above, as if he was holding an oversized stool.

However, this guy should have conveyed the truth truthfully in the end.

"After entering the city, you are not allowed to kill soldiers or demote officials, you are not allowed to kill good people, you are not allowed to kill scholars, you are not allowed to loot, you are not allowed to tease women, and you are not allowed to occupy people's residences."

Each of the six mistakes was definitely not what Geng Hu expected, each one was something Geng Hu had never expected, and each one surprised them, the former officers and soldiers.

This doesn't seem to be what an army should be like, especially since their army is technically a rebel.

It’s really ridiculous!

When dozens of thick and long giant ropes were stretched out from the caves in the city wall, Yonekura ended his indescribable thoughts, leaving only shock.

He knew that he was about to witness a human miracle that he had never seen or imagined.

At this time, all the archers and firearms soldiers of the Peasant Army seemed to have been mobilized to the front, and launched the maximum density and unprecedentedly fierce fire suppression.

Yonekura carried a knife on his back and a group of hundreds of people grabbed a thick rope and prepared to pull hard. He knew that the other end of the rope was a certain pillar in the cavity of the city wall.

This kind of power can never go wrong, and the results are self-evident.

As thousands of people followed the chant and shouted, a section of the city wall that was tens of meters long quickly collapsed, and then all those holding the rope rushed towards the gap in the city wall howling and brandishing weapons.

Out of caution, Yonekura did not move forward. He still had much to learn about war.

As a result, he instantly lost contact with Geng Hu, who was miraculously excited.

This was a result that should not have happened and was not allowed by military law, but today he felt that he might not be punished.

Yonekura was not in a hurry to catch up, and none of the fourteen men following him were anxious or urging him.

But soon, Yonekura realized that he had thought too much.

When climbing over the broken wall, Yonekura noticed that among the many corpses mixed with the ruins of the city wall, several were obviously women. These corpses should have been killed in earlier battles, but the defenders were unable to clear them away.

With the crowd pouring into the city, Yonekang no longer had the chance to show off his strength, and it seemed that he didn't need to show it off at all.

The resistance in the city was weak, and there were not even many living people, only corpses scattered everywhere.

In fact, there is no need to dig out the city to attack, the city should be destroyed.

Several soldiers who were obviously not newly recruited soldiers surrounded a woman who must have been helping the defenders transport supplies. Judging from the woman's clothes, her family background was not bad.

The woman was sitting on the ground and seemed unwilling to get up.

Out of curiosity, Yonekang stopped.

One of the surrounding soldiers wanted to pull the woman away, but Mi Cang heard the woman curse: "Thieves are dirtying my hands."

The soldier immediately became furious and chopped off one of the woman's arms with a knife.

Instead of begging for mercy, the woman cursed.

The other soldiers surrounding her were not polite and hacked the woman to death with knives.

No one said anything from the other soldiers passing by, including some who were obviously the leaders.

Wu Yougen, who was following Mi Cang closely, couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "Didn't you say that indiscriminate killing is not allowed?"

Mi Cang turned to look at Wu Yougen, and gently waved his hand to his mouth.

However, deep into the inner city, Mi Cang did not see anyone using weapons on those kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.

"The little boss is over there!" a soldier suddenly shouted.

Mi Cang turned his head in the direction of his subordinate's finger, and soon spotted Geng Hu among the crowd at the entrance of a nearby alley. This guy's big body and neck were too eye-catching.

But there was a woman's scream.

Mi Cang walked over unconsciously, only to find that a dozen soldiers, including Geng Hu, were laughing and joking around a woman, pushing and shoving her hands. Then a young male voice in the alley kept flattering and shouted:

"Dear heroes, I would like to surrender, I would like to surrender..."

Then, Mi Cang suddenly discovered that Geng Hu turned out to be a bachelor. None of the soldiers who were having fun with him were known to Mi Cang, which meant that Geng Hu had lost contact with all his subordinates.

Maybe the woman's scream is too noticeable.

A peasant army leader wearing a white felt hat and leading a large group of soldiers also appeared at this time.

The leader of the peasant army shouted with some dissatisfaction: "Why can't you control yourself so much? Do you really think military law is child's play? Let's break up soon."

Although the leader, who must have been a big leader, did not take any further measures, his roar still caused all the soldiers in the alley, including Geng Hu, to disperse and disappear.

Only the woman who fell to the ground crying and a hunched-over scholar-like man emerged from the alley.

"This lady is so beautiful!" Mi Cang's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"This lady is so beautiful!" The leader of the peasant army wearing a white felt hat couldn't help but praise her.

"Student Zhang Liankui is willing to surrender to the rebels. Student Zhang Liankui is willing to surrender to the rebels." The scholar-looking man suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.

The leader of the peasant army wearing a white felt hat was stunned for a moment and asked: "Are you a scholar?"

"Yes, the young one is a scholar. The young one is willing to surrender."

"Which lady is this?"

"She is my wife."

The peasant army leader's eyes immediately widened.

Mi Cang looked at the fawning scholar Zhang Liankui, and then at the beautiful woman still crying on the ground. He suddenly felt disgusted and he didn't want to read any more.

But there seems to be no need to go to Geng Hu again. That guy is just looking for fun on his own.

Following a random flow of people, Mi Cang soon came to an imposing house, where an old man yelled and cursed very loudly.

This should have some backbone!

Looking up at the word "Qiu Mansion" on the door, Mi Cang realized that this family was definitely no ordinary local gentry.

Just as he was hesitating whether to squeeze in and get curious, the old man's screams came from the yard, followed by a sound of hip-hop and ridicule.

Mi Cang was a bit bored, and he was at a loss as to where to go next.

While he was hesitating, several soldiers roughly grabbed a young man in fine clothes with a frightened face and walked out of Qiu Mansion.

Yonekang subconsciously asked: "Brothers, who is this?"

"The young master of this family. Look at his eggless appearance. He is not as good as his grandpa." A soldier replied with a smile.

"Where are you taking him?" Yonekura asked in surprise.

"Go and find the old boss. It is said that this bastard is a high-ranking official in the Imperial Court's Ministry of Etiquette, or some kind of bachelor. The old boss should like him." The soldier who just answered pushed the young man in fine clothes away.

I didn’t forget to continue showing off my previous sentence.

Yicheng was indeed too small to allow looting and indiscriminate killing, and there were too many peasant soldiers entering the city, so many people soon became idle, and the county government naturally became a gathering place for most of the peasant soldiers to watch the excitement.

Because the old boss Yuan Zongdi is here, and because Chen Mei, the county magistrate of Yicheng, is here.

By the time Mi Cang came over, the county government office was already on three floors inside and three outside, and many people could only listen outside to listen to the people inside talking to the outside.

It is said that Yuan Zongdi was trying to persuade the county magistrate Chen Mei to surrender.

However, since there were no rebels who wanted to disturb the old boss's efforts to persuade him to surrender, and people outside the county government office also wanted to hear what was going on inside. The not-noisy environment revealed that the county magistrate Chen Mei had been cursing loudly and hoarsely.
