Three days later, after traveling more than a hundred miles, Wugang County was finally in sight.
Before entering the county, Sun Siwen had sent someone ahead to inform the county town that the new county magistrate was coming.
In fact, the local factions in Wugang County had already learned of the arrival of the new county magistrate two days ago, through spies embedded in Fu City.
Not only did they learn of the news, but they also found out that the new county magistrate was coming with an official force of 500 troops.
Upon hearing this news, many local influential families were shocked.
For a small county with a population of twenty or thirty thousand, a force of 500 troops was a significant number.
Previously, the army sent by the prefecture to quell the rebellion was only around two thousand strong.
