The atmosphere in Yongcheng is not peaceful.

It should be said that no matter which city is surrounded by a group of soldiers, the atmosphere in the city will become depressing.

Meng Ao looked at the chaotic battle formations on the Yongcheng city walls, frowned, and angrily said, "What are you doing?! Why don't you let Meng Cheng get down here and see me?"

Meng Cheng was the magistrate of Yongcheng, a descendant of the famous Qin general Meng Mingshi. However, the Meng family was in decline, so he became a county magistrate in Yongcheng.

The soldier on top looked at the dark crowd below, then at the banner in the distance:

One was completely black and had the word "Qin" written on it, and the other had a slight bluish tint and had the word "Meng" written on it.

Seeing that they were all Qin troops, he took courage and shouted back, "Which general has come to Yongcheng? Does he have a royal decree?"

"I am General Meng Ao. I have been ordered by the king to come to Yongcheng to suppress the Mohist rebels." Meng Ao did not want to waste any time talking to this group of people.

Yesterday, many soldiers killed many Mohists at night, without exception.

But judging from the situation, someone must have known something and wanted to leave Yongcheng or Qin.

But no matter which one it was, the Mohists were constantly telling Meng Ao that they were going to run away.

At some point in the morning, the Mohists killed dozens of them. Not only did the Mohists feel something was wrong, but Meng Ao also felt something was wrong.

Fortunately, we didn’t camp deep last night and it was still quite close to Yongcheng, so we arrived in Yongcheng just as the sky was getting light.

The situation was so urgent that Meng Ao had no time to waste talking to this group of people. He directly ordered the siege of the entire Yongcheng.

Although these 120,000 or 130,000 soldiers could not completely surround Yongcheng, based on their skills last night, it is likely that no one would be able to escape.

"Is there a royal decree?"

The soldiers above did not dare to be negligent at all, but still demanded Wang Ling.

Even though they knew that this was the heartland of Qin and that other countries could not invade, this was also the place where Qin's ancestral worship was held. It can be said that the ancestral tombs of most of Qin's nobles were here.

If anything goes wrong here, not to mention them, even Meng Chengdu may not be able to escape unscathed.

"The general's order is here, why don't you open the city gate?!" Meng Ao didn't waste any more words with him. He reached into his arms and threw his personal ID card directly at the gate.

It was also due to my recent days of practice, otherwise after running all night, coupled with my age, I might not have been able to throw it so easily and accurately.

The soldiers above just took a quick look and hurriedly raised the flag, and the gate of Yongcheng finally creaked open.

"Dawdle!" Meng Ao shouted angrily, throwing out the long spear in his hand and blasting the city gate open. "Pass my order, not a single Mohist disciple will be spared!"

"only!"

The might of tens of thousands of soldiers responding in unison was extremely terrifying, at least it was something the soldiers defending the city had never seen before.

With the incident of Meng Ao blasting open the city gate, this group of people had no objection and could only stare blankly at the torrent of people rushing into Yongcheng.

As for Yongcheng Magistrate Meng Cheng, he has not yet left the county government, so how could he know what is happening here?

Meng Cheng was just praying now that these soldiers were not here to arrest him. After all, he had delivered things to the palace before Ying Zheng ascended the throne.

There are rumors now that everyone in Xianyang has been arrested, and they are all involved in this incident. How can Meng Cheng not be panicked?

In addition, Ying Zheng had come to Yongcheng and held banquets three times before, but he did not have the opportunity to show up on any of the three occasions. If it were not for the fact that his subordinates were on Ying Zheng's side, he might have done something he shouldn't have done.

This seemed to be a precursor to an outbreak, but Meng Cheng didn't hear a word of it.

Or perhaps he could hear the rumor that the whole court was being purged.

…

The Mo family's secret room was not peaceful.

Or they have lost the desire to move.

Although not many Qin soldiers were seen, the number of soldiers who were able to surround the entire Yongcheng must be at least 50,000.

Tian Lao looked at the elders around him with a bitter expression and said, "In this case, is there any other way out? Where is the great master? Why is the great master not here?"

"It seems that the master has gone to look for Yuan." An old man next to him reminded him, but that was all he said. He did not mention the previous question at all.

"Oh, did I ask him to go?" Tian Lao seemed a little drowsy. "It's good for him to go. It can be considered as leaving a seed. Not all of them died!"

Most of the Mohists are here. Those scattered around are just random people, except for a few talented ones.

Rather than relying on those people to leave offspring for the Mohist school, it would be better to hope that this escaped giant still has some conscience and knows how to think well of the Mohist school so as not to completely extinct the Mohist school's inheritance.

"Let everyone run for their lives, run for their lives!" Tian Lao had no strength left, and he no longer had the mind to resist.

Fifty thousand soldiers surrounded and suppressed the Mohist School. Even if they did not explicitly say that they were coming for the Mohist School, how could the people here not see the murderous intent?

After all, all the Mohists who went out lost their lives!

There were also experts who went out to look for Yuan, and even if it was just Yuan, it was not something that ordinary soldiers could stop.

Now that even these people have been defeated, how many soldiers can these old men kill? It would be better to let those guys run for their lives, and stay here as bait to attract fire.

If only one person can escape, it’s good. No matter how many people escape, as long as there are people, there is hope.

Most of the Mohist disciples in Yongcheng are loyal to the Mohist beliefs, otherwise they would not be dissatisfied with this Mohist leader.

When the people waiting outside heard Tian Lao's words, they understood what the elders meant. They did not dare to dissuade them, nor could they dissuade them. So they ran out to inform more people to escape.
