The Sultan of Rum attacked the crusading army besieging his capital of Nicaea, but found to his horror these soldiers were nothing like Peter the Hermit's rabble — his army broke and fled. The citizens of Nicaea, fearing a sack and with no hope of rescue, quietly surrendered to the Byzantines overnight. When crusaders awoke to find the Byzantine flag flying and looting opportunities gone, they began to grumble openly about Byzantine duplicity.
