―――――――――――――――――――

The main generals all ran away, and the officers and soldiers naturally did not fall in love with the war, and they turned around and ran away, one by one faster than rabbits, leaving wounded soldiers and corpses on the battlefield. The guards cheered excitedly when they saw this.

Xia Nan breathed a sigh of relief, the weakness of the official army was beyond his expectations, and the combat effectiveness was even lower than he expected, in addition to the number of several times, the intensity of this battle was not even as fierce as the first battle between Ti Nantong and Huang Mengjia. However, he was not carried away by the victory, and there was still a team of officers and soldiers behind him, and this hidden danger had to be solved. He immediately ordered Huang Hansheng to give up the pursuit and return to the battle as a whole.

He left some of his men to clean up the battlefield, and then he was ready to bring people back to help. Sima De reminded: "My lord, we don't know whether this group of officers and troops is going to Zhuangzi or the port, so we can only divide the troops, but after the division of the troops, I am afraid that there will be not enough manpower - we may have to rescue the craftsmen from them, and we must surround them and force them to surrender, and it is not okay if there are fewer people." ā€

Xia Nan felt that what he said was right, at this time, I am afraid that the official army has already arrived at the place, and if he does not kill the craftsman on the spot, he will seize it as a bargaining chip. It is not difficult to defeat them, but in order to rescue the Artisan from their hands, the only way to save them is to surround them and make them surrender on their own, so as to prevent them from jumping over the wall and killing the Artisan to the greatest extent. But if you don't divide the troops, you can only choose one place, where will the officers and soldiers go?

Sima De reminded: "My lord, the craftsman who escaped a few days ago may be the real reason for the leak. ā€

That's right, why did the official army divide the troops, it is very likely that the escaped craftsman leaked secrets, and this craftsman ran from Bofu, he is only familiar with the situation on Bofu's side, and he doesn't know much about Hujiazhuang, so he will definitely take the officers and soldiers to Bofu.

"Pass my order, all set off to Bosuke, and arrive as fast as possible!"

At the moment of the battle between the escort team and the officers and soldiers, Wei Lianheng, under the leadership of Zhou Bingkun, went straight to Bofu Port.

At this time, Hirosuke was already a port and a shipyard in one, with the shipyard inland and the port by the sea. A few miles away, Wei Lianheng saw the large ship in the dockyard that was about to be completed, standing like a wall in front of him. He couldn't help but slow down and asked Zhou Bingkun: "What is this?" ā€

Zhou Bingkun shielded his hand from the sun, squinted at it, and replied: "My lord, this is a sea ship built by the traitor without permission, and it is said that it is going to be traded at sea. ā€

When I got to the front, I could see more clearly that the improved Galen ship that was nearing completion was simply a small mountain, which made the people standing next to it feel inexplicably depressed. Wei Lianheng has not seen a big ship, Baisha Water Village also has a sailor of the imperial court, but the largest blessing ship of the sailor is only 400 materials, compared with this ship, it is the difference between adults and children.

He muttered, "This ...... I'm afraid there are 1,000 materials on this ship? ā€

Zhou Bingkun is just a half-baked iron-making craftsman, and he doesn't know anything about sea ships, so he can't answer.

Wei Lianheng's heart became heavy, as a military attache of the imperial court, although he didn't know much about the sailors, he also knew that if a sea ship of this size was used as a warship, not to mention far away, at least none of the sailors of Baisha Water Village could match it. If there are a few more such ships, the sailors of Baisha can only flee from the wind.

The owner in the mouth of the craftsman surnamed Zhou can build such sharp guns, and can also build a sea ship of this scale, once he becomes a climate, whether it is on land or water, who else in the entire Qiongzhou Mansion can curb this fang.

Thinking of this, a sense of mission arose, he clenched the handle of the knife, and said in his heart: While he is still in his fledgling, let me cut off his right arm!

He led 300 officers and men through the dock and, under the guidance of Zhou Bingkun, went straight to the port, where the blacksmiths were housed. As he passed by the shipyard's dormitory, a figure looming through the door and window caught his attention, and he asked, "Who is this again?" ā€

Zhou Bingkun scratched his head and replied uncertainly: "Is it a craftsman who builds ships?" ā€

He had never been to the shipyard before, and was only placed in the port to avoid the officers and soldiers, so he was not very familiar with it.

If he didn't see the big ship, Wei Lianheng's target was only a blacksmith who could make guns. But after looking at this thousand ships, he felt that these shipbuilders could not stay. He changed his mind, "Deal with these shipwrights first, and then capture the blacksmiths!" ā€

With a "bang", the door of a wooden house was kicked open, and Wei Lian rushed in with a knife, and there was a room full of people. Seeing the arrival of the officers and soldiers, everyone knelt down in fear and shouted: "The official spares his life!" ā€

Wei Lianheng planned to kill the shipwrights first, and then capture the blacksmiths - the court did not value sailors, and even if these shipwrights were taken away, they would be of no great use, but the blacksmiths could serve the court and make bird guns and cannons. But when he saw this room of people, he was stunned, there were men, women and children, but it was like three generations of grandparents and a big family.

He pointed his knife at the middle-aged man kneeling at the front and asked, "Are you boatsmiths here?" Who are these women, children, and old people? ā€

The man kowtowed again and again: "The official spares his life, the younger one is the boatwright here, these are all small family members, parents, wives and children, and grandparents......

The knife in Wei Lianheng's hand was a little unbearable, and he asked in a deep voice: "You are a shipwright, how can you bring your family into the shipyard, could it be that your owner can help you feed the whole family?" Don't lie and deceive the official! ā€

"Master Mingjian, every little sentence is true! Last year, I was going to be requisitioned by the government to go to the FJ owner to hire someone to build a ship, so I pleaded with the county government and left us behind, and took pity on our family and no one to take care of them, so they took their families here to settle ......"

It seems that this proprietor is not a very vicious person, and he can settle the family of the craftsman, and he is also quite benevolent, but it is a pity that he is an enemy of the imperial court.

Wei Lianheng looked at the trembling woman and toddler kneeling on the ground, as well as the white-haired old woman, and sighed, if he killed them all, how different from robbers and bandits, he still couldn't do it after all. He commanded his subordinates: "They are all poor people, do not hurt their lives, just tie them up, and we will arrest the blacksmith." ā€

Wei Lianheng thought of benevolence, delayed a lot of time, and missed the best opportunity. He never expected that the army of the imperial court would be so vulnerable, and at the same time, the army that had already been killed could not be defeated.

When Xia Nan led the escort to the shipyard with a rapid march, he did not see the expected billowing smoke, and the Galen ship was still intact, and he breathed a big sigh of relief in his heart. When he saw that the shipwrights in the wooden house were tied up with flowers, but they had no worries about their lives, they were even more relieved.

When Wei Lianheng and his men drove the blacksmith to return the same way, he collided head-on with the escort at the port. He felt a chill in his heart, the other party came so quickly, and there were no pursuers behind him, which was obviously the last thing he wanted to see.
