, not even a meter or a piece of cloth is for sale. I dare to ask, Sir, why do I, Dongjiang, have the ambition to serve the country, but I am staggering like an enemy?"

After repeated rhetoric, Sun Yuanhua changed his mind.

Geng Zhongming and Chen Guangfu were not lying. After Dongjiang Town came to Denglai, the relationship with the local people was indeed very tense.

Thinking that Kong Youde and others braved the wind and snow to support Liaodong, but were treated as enemy bandits along the way, and that people from all over the Dongjiang River treated him with great respect, Sun Yuanhua softened his heart.

"Three feet of ice is not a day's cold. If you want to change people's hearts, you should start today. Pass on the order and all the soldiers and horses will disperse. Please spread the message to all places, and you are not allowed to attack my Dongjiang disciples."

In this way, Sun Yuanhua firmed up his position of appeasement. Instead of summoning troops to suppress and defend the rebels, he dismissed all the ministries and refused to allow other troops to attack.

For a time, after Ruan Cheng, the originally turbulent chaos seemed to have calmed down.

Kong Youde was overjoyed when he saw the message quietly sent by Geng Zhongming.

“Great things can be expected.”

In order to confuse the civil and military forces of Shandong, after leaving Ruan City, the Dongjiang rebels just headed eastward and never attacked the prefectures and counties along the way. They seemed to be repenting.

Sun Yuanhua, a political novice, was so encouraged after learning about the situation that he even wrote a letter to Yu Dacheng.

[The situation has been decided, our soldiers are not allowed to take a single step eastward and cause harm.]

Yu Dacheng wished that one more thing would be better than one less thing, so he immediately dismissed all the Ming troops.

On December 22, Kong Youde's troops arrived at Dengzhou City.

And the only thing they have to face is the officers and soldiers in Dengzhou City.
