Chapter 202: Reinforcements arrive, the beginning of chaos
The merchants and commoners heard this and all fell silent.
The soldiers were changed?
After changing people, the city gates wouldn't open.
It might really be that something happened; otherwise, why change people?
Why wouldn't they open the city gates now?
"Even if something happened, we have no way! The city gates won't open, and I can't get out."
"Sigh...."
A group of people stood not far from the city gates, all somewhat panic-stricken and sighing.
But just at this moment.
Many sounds of horse hooves and war cries came from outside the city.
Although the commoners were blocked by the city walls and couldn't see outside.
But they could still hear the sounds of war horses running and war cries.
"Remnants of the Xiang family, you dare to occupy Sucheng! Come out and surrender quickly!"
"Otherwise, when the great army of Great Qin soldiers arrives, you will have no place to be buried!"
Immediately following this, countless arrows were shot into the city!
The merchants and commoners not far from the city gates heard this movement and this shouting.
They all looked at each other; something big had truly happened!
The crowd immediately scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing toward the depths of Sucheng.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, everyone in the entire Sucheng knew that the Xiang family had hijacked and occupied Sucheng.
Now the Great Qin soldiers were attacking Sucheng from the outside!
This news shocked them endlessly.
Many people didn't know what kind of family the Xiang family was at first.
But some people knew; the Xiang family, the Xiang family of the Chu state, remnants of the former Six Kingdoms!
The Xiang family wanted to raise an army to rebel!
The Xiang family occupied Sucheng to rebel against Qin!
The crowd in the city panicked.
The Xiang family occupied Sucheng to rebel against Qin; they were in the city, would they be identified as co-conspirators?
Many people knew that they couldn't stay in Sucheng anymore; they had to flee Sucheng to show their innocence!
They didn't want to carry the eternal infamy of rebelling against Qin.
The future of Great Qin was bright now; this was something anyone could see.
Great Qin's reforms, reduction and exemption of taxes for commoners, distribution of good farmland, distribution of new crops, and farming tools.
These various signs indicated that Great Qin would certainly get better and better.
They could eat their fill and wear warm clothes; why would they still want to rebel against Qin?
If they rebelled against Qin, there would certainly be endless wars in the future, and the ones who would suffer would still be the commoners.
If the Xiang family wanted to rebel against Qin, let them rebel; they couldn't manage it, but they couldn't drag them, Sucheng, into the water!
Everyone in the city expressed that they didn't agree!
Immediately, many people gathered together, wanting to rush out of the city; they didn't want to stay in Sucheng with the Xiang family.
They were afraid that they would be accidentally injured after the Great Qin soldiers attacked.
But when they rushed to the city gates, there were hundreds of soldiers holding weapons guarding them, just refusing to let them leave the city.
To avoid bloodshed, the commoners could only leave the city gates for the time being.
Xiang Liang happened to be watching this scene of commoners wanting to leave the city from the city walls.
He now had one head and two big problems; if the commoners all left the city, how could their Xiang family play? ===== CHAPTER 204 =====
