However, in the morning, when Cho's soldiers arrive and free him, they begin plundering the entire town and killing civilians indiscriminately. Yeung does not wish to comply, and resigns instead, and disbands the militia.

When Yeung tries to arrest Lau, the entire town protests and pleads with Yeung to liberate Cho, and thereby spare the town from massacre. While Yeung's friend is killed, Yeung manages to defeat Lau's men.

The richest man in town, Mr Lau, who recently hired private security guards, sends them to murder Yeung and his best friend Tither Liu, so he can take control of the town and set Cho free. Two of the soldiers' commanders worry about Cho, and attempt to lead a squad in a rescue mission at night, to attack the prison and set Cho free, but the militia members successfully repel them. When Yeung refuses to give in, and threatens to kill Cho on the spot, the soldiers declare that Yeung must release Cho in the morning, or else the entire town will be killed. He is quickly arrested and sentenced to death, but his father's soldiers arrive and demand his release. A few days later, Cho, who derives pleasure from random killings, enters Pucheng alone and murders Pak, her cousin, and one of her students. Since the soldiers of Pucheng are away on a campaign, authority falls to Colonel Yeung, leader of the militia. As Marshal Cho, the son of a military governor, wanders around the area of Shitoucheng indiscriminately killing and robbing from civilians, a school-teacher named Ms Pak flees with her students, and along with other refugees are admitted into Pucheng, which belongs to another governor.
