Answer:
When ordinary people began joining the revolt, the targets of attack widened. The rebels not only attacked the British soldiers stationed in India but in major towns like Lucknow, Kanpur and Bareilly, moneylenders and the rich also became the objects of rebel wrath. Peasants not only saw them as oppressors but also as allies of the British. In most places their houses were looted and destroyed. The mutiny in the sepoy ranks quickly became a rebellion.
