On the fifth day of the city's fall, the Green Mountain Army had basically taken control of the situation and had the prefecture city firmly in their hands.
The Shi family also shed all pretenses and announced that they would join the Green Mountain Army. Their status rose rapidly, and they entered the mayor's mansion. The Shi family head would also serve as the mayor, directly surpassing the aristocratic Wang family.
As night fell, in the dim woodshed, Jiang Ming circulated his blood Qi to his ears and listened to the conversation of the owner of the house next door.
"Today, the Green Mountain Army came again and asked us to donate ten more sacks of white rice. Didn't they say that they don't hurt the people?" the man of the house sighed.
"I can only hope that they leave quickly. There's not a single good person in the government," the mistress sighed as well.
