In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed, and cities like Wuguan, Huainan, Xiaotian Town, and Beiwang had emerged from the shadows of war.
Initially, when Chen Mo occupied Huai State, the people's hearts were anxious. Had Chen Mo not declared a city lockdown after taking Wuguan, the residents of Wuguan would have wanted to flee with their entire families. Historically, after most invasions, cities were looted, leading to dire consequences, so naturally, they were worried.
But after Chen Mo and his troops entered the city, not only did they refrain from looting, but they also compensated the people with money and food, implemented benevolent governance, and reduced taxes. The soldiers under Chen Mo's command did not disturb the civilians at all. As time passed, the people's anxiety slowly dissipated, and they began to accept Chen Mo as their new ruler.
