Chapter 141 Mrs. Gao

5days ago traverse Novels 2
After the night of the Lantern Festival, I never saw Fu Ermei again.There was no news about her, as if she had never existed at all.

Spring seems to suddenly come overnight.

In the late lunar month, the weather turned clear, and the wind brought the breath of spring. The snow on the streets, alleys, roofs, and steps gradually melted. When you look carefully, you will find that there is green on the branches. From a little further away, you can find a layer of new green covered in the garden.

Everything has recovered, and everything seems to have a new beginning; but Guo Shao is nostalgic in that night when the snowy night is stagnant in the winter, blowing down the stars like rain.

He found that he was missing Fu Ermei... this familiar and strange woman.

Familiarity is because she is too similar to Queen Fu; strangeness is because she has only seen one side, and only the moment the hat falls off, half of her face is unforgettable.

The intertwined and merged with the second sister in Guo Shao's heart, which made him a little confused.

However, Fu Hou and Ermei are still very different. The second sister is more playful and pure, and has less heavy feeling; probably because of the different experiences.

If Guo Shao remembers correctly, Empress Fu in history died of illness in the Battle of Huainan, and Fu Ermei was the emperor's second queen.

Perhaps, only the emperor can protect such a woman, because she is easily missed when she appears.

She is really a beloved and caring woman, and she is a little annoying. She is planning to pretend to be a dancer and fool herself?

Guo Shao was in the ceremony hall outside the palace, and Fu Yanqing's mansion was really boring, so it was better to be with a group of brothers and Zuo You.

He was thinking boredly when he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves in the street...the very rapid sound of horse hooves.The sound of horse hooves in the city gives people the feeling that something urgent is.

Guo Shao walked a few steps out of the gate and looked in the sound. He saw a tall and fierce man riding a horse with a black face.That's Lu Chengyong, a personal soldier who went to Youzhou with the Khitan generals?

The strong man also saw Guo Shao. As soon as he strangled the war horse, before the horse stood firm, he turned over and clasped his fists and said: Lord!I have found where Mrs. Gao is...

Guo Shao was happy and hurriedly took his arm and said: Come in and speak.

The strong man Lu Chengyong said in a deep voice: Xiao Jin, a Khitan, risked his life to find the Liao general he had known in Youzhou and asked about Mrs. Gao. After many twists and turns, he learned about Mrs. Gao's whereabouts.She was forcibly robbed as a concubine by a Liao general in Youzhou, and the Liao general was transferred to a military camp south of Waqiao Pass.We were hiding in a mountain forest at night. Xiao Jin could speak Khitan language and pretended to be a Khitan peddler to investigate the village. There were dozens of Liao cavalry and hundreds of Xi infantrymen.

Xiao Jin decided to lead the crowd to attack the camp and snatch the people and leave.But we only have eighteen horses, and we can only hope to make a sudden mistake and not knowing success or failure.

Go to the Liao army camp to grab people?Guo Shao felt a little uneasy and felt that those people were a little bit in danger.It is mainly not easy to escape even if you break through the military camp.

Guo Shao paced around the corridor.At this time, Zuo You, Yang Biao, Luo Mengzi and others also came out, and their personal soldiers Lu Chengyong had to repeat the words just now.

If Fu Ermei herself is not considered, only alliances and rights are considered.Mrs. Gao and Fu Ermei are equally important... Marriage can form an alliance, and the sister who saves Gao Huaide can also form an alliance.

With the strategic thinking that Guo Shao can do, he had a kind of intuition: Chai Rong ignored his invisible strength a little... Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin had the highest status and were defended to death; but Guo Shao felt that the strength of these two was actually not as good as Zhao Kuangyin. What defenses and constraints did Zhao Kuangyin have in the front office of the palace?

Guo Shao felt that his current status level no longer needs to be deliberately improved.

On the contrary, he should win over people everywhere and lay a solid foundation and networking.

Mrs. Gao must be rescued!Otherwise, how can we win over Gao Huaide's big vote?There is nowhere to go.

I want to go to the north and pick up Xiao Jin and others.Guo Shao said.

Zuo You hurriedly dissuaded: Most of the people who go to Liao territory are useless, and they can only be fought unless a national war was launched.The lord must not take risks without help.

If we don’t go to Liao territory, we will go to the Hebei border and wait to get the news sooner.Guo Shao said urgently, there is nothing to do in Daming Mansion all day long... If Xiao Jin and others fail and someone is captured, will they give their purpose of attacking the military camp?

Everyone was silent and obviously would offer it.As long as you catch the living, there will always be a way for someone to confess... Then Mrs. Gao will not go to the southern part of Liao territory again and will lose the next chance to rescue.

Guo Shao couldn't sit still, so he asked to meet Fu Yanqing through the manager of the ceremony hall.

Fu Yanqing also advised him a few times, but when Guo Shao was anxious to go to answer, he wrote a letter of recommendation from the governor of Dingzhou. General Guo could go to Dingzhou. The governor Sun Xingyou had a few encounters with me. You are also an imperial guard general, so he should send troops to respond when necessary.Dingzhou is bordered by a river, and it is the closest place to Waqiao Pass in the Great Zhou Dynasty; but occasionally Khitans ride across the river to make Caogu, General Guo should be more careful.I'll send you two people to lead the way.

Guo Shao thanked him and took the printed recommendation letter out of the Prince Wei's Mansion.

After preparing with everyone, he borrowed twenty-one sets of armor from the royal palace officials, changed into military uniforms, brought dry food and water bags and left.Everyone is accustomed to military career, but it is very quick.

……

It is about 600 miles from Daming Prefecture to Dingzhou, which is further from Guo Shao and others to Hebei.

Fortunately, most of the roads are relatively spacious and flat, and the Hebei Plain is a good place to ride a horse. Guo Shao was also anxious and arrived in Dingzhou after three days of traveling together... If he had to find the ferry crossing a few times, it might have been faster.

It seemed quite peaceful along the way. I didn’t see the grass-drawing valley as Fu Yanqing said. The Liao and surrounding borders were peaceful, and even farmers and oxen were seen working in the fields in spring.

Guo Shao asked about the route of his personal soldiers' return and first deployed his personal soldiers' cavalry nearby; this was a dilapidated ferry with only three small ferries, which should be used by the commuters and civilians, and there were only a few sentinels set up by the old and weak Zhou army.

After the distribution was made, Guo Shao and others went to Dingzhou City to send a message.

The Dingzhou shogunate hosted Guo Shao and his party, and there was a banquet that night and officials accompanied him.

Guo Shao has experienced this occasion many times from Guanzhong to Hebei. Others have fulfilled their friendship as a landlord, at least the first drink is inevitable.

Guo Shao handed Fu Yanqing's letter to the shogunate officials, and he met Sun Xingyou the next day.

Fu Yanqing has worked as a military governor in Hebei for many years, and it seems that his name is quite useful.Sun Xingyou was willing to send troops to assist in Dingzhou, but he did not want to go to Liao territory to provoke a conflict, and then sent a general to assist Guo Shao.

As soon as the group left the shogunate, a personal soldier was waiting anxiously: Someone from Xiao Jin's army reached the river bank!

Guo Shao hurriedly rode his horse out of the city, and soon he saw two strange men riding over.Guo Shao rushed forward and asked: Are you the only ones?Have you rescued Mrs. Gao?

One of the men said: We have seen the place and suddenly rushed into the village in the early morning and grabbed the person, but we can only run away immediately.In order to disperse the Khitan and the pseudo-Han soldiers, General Xiao divided his troops into three groups, and Mrs. Gao was not in our hands.A few of us were chased all the way and shot three of us!

Guo Shao brought people to the ferry and saw that about twenty or thirty enemy cavalry were wandering there on the other side, and no one else was seen.

Can the general mobilize horse soldiers and drive away the Khitan cavalry on the other side first?Guo Shao asked, Mrs. Gao is likely to be following this ferry along the way.

The general from Dingzhou said: I want to report to the hero of the festival!The commander of the Jieshou ordered the order, and the last general brought his troops here.

At this moment, suddenly, Khitan cavalry on the other side turned around and rode away. Guo Shao looked into the distance and saw three cavalry vaguely running from the end of his sight. He said anxiously: No!

Guo Shao wanted to cross the river to respond, but Zuo You advised him again.

Seeing whether this matter was successful or not, he was one last step away from his success, so he didn't care much, so he and Yang Biao and others boarded the three ferries at the ferry, and only passed nine cavalry for the first time.

There was no one stopping the riverside. The Liao cavalry had spread to their wings and surrounded the people in the distance.

After Guo Shao got ashore, he rode away.

He ran wildly without hesitation of horsepower, and Guo Shao had already seen clearly that one of the horses was sitting in a man in white.

My heart skipped a beat: It’s probably Mrs. Gao!

Xiao Jin rushed to the Liao camp in the early morning. Only Mrs. Gao could run away with only white middle clothes. Who would have nothing to do with those military men wearing white clothes?

He stared at the man in white and rode his horse and ran.The three cavalry ran forward and reverse, and seemed to have turned around when they found the Liao cavalry blocking the road ahead.

Three groups of people and horses were galloping forward and backwards, and suddenly they saw dust spreading in the distance, and Liao cavalry came over again!

The three cavalry quickly turned around and rushed out to the west, as if the Liao cavalry in the west were relatively sparse.

Seeing this, Guo Shao led his army to run to the left.

Suddenly, a knight fell down from the horse.The Han Bing and Mrs. Gao had three cavalry, but only two cavalry were left.

The situation was very critical and rushed closer. Guo Shao shouted: Mrs. Gao, I am here to pick you up and walk towards this side!I heard the crack...the crack string sound again, and the situation was very critical.

Guo Shao saw that he had been within a hundred steps of a Liao cavalry, so he took a bow and arrow, and shot it away, but it failed!

The brothers around him, Yang Biao and Luo Mengzi's archery skills are terrible, and Guo Shao knows them very well.

There was also a group of oldest personal soldiers, who were wounded soldiers collected in Wuji Town. At that time, these people belonged to the infantry of the Xiaodi Army (Iron Cavalry Army), and most of them were not good at cavalry and shooting skills.

I would have known that I would have brought Li Chuyun or Luo Yanhuan to come!

Bang!Another string sounded, and one of the Khitan cavalry shot very sharply, and another cavalry was killed.In the end, Mrs. Gao was left and ran around to Guo Shao in a hurry.

But the Khitan soldiers who followed her did not shoot her, but shot her horse to kneel down with another arrow.

Another Khitan knight was only a few dozen steps away from Guo Shao, and he shot two arrows in a row, but failed.

Several riders surrounded Mrs. Gao who fell on the soil.

Guo Shao ran and set his bow. The number of arrows was erratic. The horse was running very hard, but he couldn't find that feeling. The arrow that was erratic was slightly deviated, and it was even further away from dozens of steps or hundreds of steps.

Seeing that three or four Liao cavalry had rushed to Mrs. Gao... More cavalrymen on the right wing surrounded Guo Shao, and the situation was very bad.

A personal soldier shouted: Lord, we are going to be surrounded, let’s retreat first!
