I became the son of Renzong

Zeng Bu, as the controller of the imperial court's public opinion, would naturally investigate the cause of this incident in detail, so he knew about the Lu family.

"That's Shilin... Let's take a look. I'll give you all the information about the Xiongzhou artisan incident. You can announce it when the time comes, so that our so-called famous scholars can see it." Let's see how they will deal with such a thing!"

The officials still wanted to intervene, and thanks to Zeng Bu's intentions, he didn't lose his position at the beginning... Officials always do this.

Chapter 864 Pursuit

Wang Shunchen has been chasing for a day and a night, and he is a little tired, but he is not ready to stop.

In the area under his garrison jurisdiction, if he really wanted to let these dozens of people escape, he couldn't afford to lose that person.

It was due to the slackness of the local government and the Lu family's thinking that everything would be fine, which led to such a thing happening.If he had been handed over to Wang Shunchen earlier, he would never have been robbed and escaped from prison.

We have to start from the beginning.

The master craftsman of Lu's glass workshop escaped from Beiliao.Most of the people who escaped from Beiliao in the early years would go to the Central Plains, just because they were worried about being fake.

In the past few years, the workshop has employed more and more people, and the manpower is obviously insufficient, so there has been a situation of on-site digestion.This is the case of the master craftsman of the Lu family.

It is said that he was bullied in Beiliao, and the whole family died, so he was reused by the Lu family.

This person is also considered smart, he just took three years from a small worker to become a master.The Lu family attached great importance to him, and even just after the three-year period, the Lu family declared the Dasong household registration for him.

Also because of the Dasong household registration, this great craftsman is a little more free...

After all, the Lu family did not relax, and the master did not escape.Because it is already registered in the Song Dynasty, the Lu family had to defile themselves in order to keep their glass formula and craftsmanship from being stolen by foreigners.

This is not only because I spent a lot of money, but the key is joint and several liability.

Wang Shunchen didn't pay much attention to this matter at first, but he was only worried when the court was about to issue a commercial decree.

Wang Shunchen considered that it was also because the imperial court was preparing to issue a decree on commercial crimes that prompted Beiliao to take risks.

A simple conviction of prostitution would cost him a year in prison at most, and after he came out, he would still be able to master glass crafts.But once the court finally passes the commercial decree, this master craftsman will be designated as a fine work, which may be another result.

Of course, it is also possible that Beiliao had already made preparations when the master was about to escape.

Thus, there was this incident of robbing the prison in Xiongzhou.

Fifty or sixty secret agents gathered in Beiliao in the name of merchants, brazenly broke into the Xiongzhou Prison, robbed the masters of the Lu family, and caused the death and injury of nearly a hundred people in the Xiongzhou Prison.

At this time, the Xiongzhou government office asked the garrison for help, and Wang Shunchen took over the matter.

Wang Shunchen also knew that the most basic reason why Guochao had surpassed Beiliao in terms of military strength over the years was that the chariots made up for the disadvantages of infantry.As for a team of five or 60 people, it is impossible for him to use a chariot to deal with it in a combat situation in Xiongzhou.

To the north of Xiongzhou, there is a first-class plain, except for a few sentry camps, there are almost no obstacles.In terms of riding and shooting, the people of the Northern Liao Dynasty are not comparable to the soldiers of the Guochao.

Wang Shunchen had to lead his personal guards to chase after him.

"How far is it from the end?"

"Back to the commander, about 150 miles. The last general has followed the commander's order and ordered the front camp to intercept. Such a thief can't escape!"

Wang Shunchen and the others could already see the dust raised by the fleeing horses ahead.

Although the Beiliao people were prepared, they still couldn't do three riders per person. Even if they entered Xiongzhou as a horse dealer, after fighting with the government servants of Xiongzhou, they still couldn't fall behind three riders per person.

Wang Shunchen's personal guards were also chasing with one man and two cavalry.

After all, it is on its own territory, and the horse can be replaced at any time, so it can always maintain the speed of the horse.

"I'm afraid these thieves won't escape along the main road. Since they came here with a plan, they must have chosen the escape route. They also know that it is impossible to leave the country by the main road. Let me know that we will change horses after thirty miles ahead. Be sure to be there. Before leaving the country, wipe out such thieves!"

Wang Shunchen also became ruthless.

There are only more than 30 personal guards. If it is not because the other party is eager to escape, if it is really a face-to-face battle, it is very likely that one's own side will be suppressed and beaten.

Now the individual combat capabilities of Guochao's soldiers have improved, but if one-on-one cavalry battles, Guochao's cavalry will only be suppressed and beaten.

After all, the cavalry of the Guo Dynasty only had war horses that could be trained to their heart's content after the destruction of Xixia, and they couldn't compare with the Beiliao people who grew up on horseback.

What's more, the cavalry of the Kingdom of China not only trained in riding and shooting, or no longer traditional riding and shooting training, but also trained in skills such as strong crossbows, gunpowder bullets thrown immediately, and horseback shooting.

Wang Shunchen's personal guards were chosen by himself, and they were definitely the best of the best.Because Wang Shunchen is a marksman, his bodyguard is naturally a master in this area.

This is also the reason why he dared to chase more than 50 people from Beiliao with [-] personal guards.

"Commander, Gou Ri's Liao thieves have turned to the west. This is to borrow the Baigou River. The difference is twenty miles. Once the Beiliao sets up obstacles on the Baigou River, the pursuit may be delayed."

The telescope has been equipped, and the lieutenant's ability can easily use the telescope on horseback.

"Don't care about him, notify the surrounding teams, block the entrance to the south, and gradually reduce it. Let's divide the troops, you take some to go north, and I take some to continue chasing, turn back and stop them!"

"Marshal, let's lead someone to chase after him at the end."

"Don't talk about it. The pursuit is not to let the opponent have a rest time, and it is possible to fight when you go north and turn back to intercept. Execute the order!"

Day and night, running continuously, not to mention the fatigue of the horses, even people can't bear it.Wang Shunchen didn't expect the people of Beiliao to be unprepared, and they must have all the rations and supplies with them.

As long as they bite each other hard like this and don't give them a chance to breathe, no matter whether it is a horse or a person, they will exhaust their energy.Only in this way can our side be able to fight more with less.

Although Wang Shunchen was belligerent, he was not reckless.Whether it is serving as a guard or fighting in Hedong and Northwest China, it is deeply influenced by the official strategy.

"That is······"

When Wang Shunchen and the others were about to divide their troops, they found that there was dust in the east...

"Is there a response from the Northern Thief?"

"No. Signal, it should be the team intercepted by Baigou Station. Let's go over and change the horse..."

In the territory of this dynasty, it is definitely not the Beiliao people who appear to gallop their horses so blatantly.Otherwise, it would mean that Wang Shunchen's defense against the Northern Liao was riddled with holes.

"Marshal, the general failed to intercept..."

"I don't blame you. Change horses, and then inform the next step, and the garrison along the way will be fully compressed. If there is any omission in the defense zone, please come and see me!"

Wang Shunchen was really angry.With five or 60 people stirring up such a big mess in his defense zone, he could imagine how his brothers would laugh at him.

I thought that I could take it down with my own guards, and save the mobilization of the army.It doesn't seem to work, my own face is a small matter, and it is not a matter of face if I really let the prison robber escape.

Wang Shunchen had no choice but to move all the troops in the border defense zone.

Even being laughed at by the brothers is better than a big mistake in the defense zone.

As for the imperial court, he reported the truth, pleaded guilty and was punished.

Wang Shunchen really underestimated the enemy, he thought it was just a matter of business and trade, the so-called prison robbery was just because the local government servants in Xiongzhou were not strong enough.
