What followed was much simpler. The army marched straight into High City, and the remaining twenty thousand Kingdom Army soldiers did not have even the slightest ability to resist.
More than a hundred thousand people surged into the district where the nobles lived, storming into every noble's home and dragging the trembling nobles out of their estates.
For these nobles, who had long since lost every shred of humanity, only one fate awaited them—death.
Bai Ina, Zongcilang, and the others stood in the distance, calmly watching as the enraged Revolutionary Army executed the nobles one by one. None of them tried to stop it.
"Commander, something's happened!"
At that moment, a messenger came running over from afar with a telegram in hand. Somewhat panicked, he said, "The brothers at the harbor spotted a Marine fleet heading this way. It will likely dock in about an hour."
"The Marines?"
Bai Ina and the others frowned. Zongcilang hurriedly asked, "Have you found out who's leading them?"
"Commander Mo Mo from our intelligence division just contacted headquarters. Based on the Marines' recent movements, headquarters suspects that this fleet may be led by Marine Vice Admiral Momousagi."
"What?"
Bai Ina's pupils contracted slightly. He turned to the messenger and said, "Tell everyone to finish off those nobles immediately, then return to the harbor and set sail to withdraw. A figure like a Marine Vice Admiral cannot be defeated by numbers alone."
"Yes!"
As the order was passed down, every Revolutionary Army soldier immediately hastened their work. After sentencing the nobles to death one by one, they took all the valuables they had seized and headed for the harbor.
Before long, all the Revolutionary Army forces in High City had withdrawn, leaving only those surrounding the royal palace, along with Bai Ina and the others.
