Chapter 245 The North-South War (4)

Maybe it was God's favor that Chai Rong was not lucky, but Guo Hao was not lucky.

The Liao army's chief general Yelu Dilu actually died of illness. The Liao army had no chief general and retreated!

If we talk about the difficulties in the past six months, the Liao army has fought, and the Zhou army has not been easy to defend!

During this period, the city of Ying County collapsed twice. Guo Hao finally blocked the enemy. As the weather got colder, he simply cast a city wall with ice!

Both sides suffered heavy casualties, and the Liao Kingdom was already full of complaints. Due to political turmoil, Yelu Jing forced his resignation to stop the policy of Emperor Taizong of Liao and Emperor Shizong of Liao to fight against the Central Plains in order to restore the national strength that had been destroyed due to long-term wars.

But he really didn't want to give up this opportunity. He wanted to use the power of Nan Tang to destroy the Later Zhou Dynasty together, but was stopped by Guo Hao.

Now that the Lord General Yelu Dilu is dead, the ministers in the court advise him to withdraw his troops, but Yelu Jing is unwilling to give up, so he sent the former Xuanhui envoy Yelu Haisi.

But he didn't know that Yelu Haisi was not on the same mind as him. After obtaining military power, he not only did not continue to attack, but retreated twenty miles.

Guo Hao didn't know what happened in the Liao Kingdom, but he didn't dare to relax his vigilance. At this time, he received news of the war in the south and his heart sank to the bottom.

"Li Hui!"

"exist."

"Take people back and protect your wife and family!"

"yes!"

Although he didn't believe that the Tang army could attack Bianliang, Guo Hao had to prepare. Li Hui was at home before, but later Li Fu asked him to come to find Guo Hao. Now Guo Hao is not at ease with the Li family and sent him back.

...

The Tang army was unstoppable all the way, but in the capital of Southern Tang, they were worried about Guo Hao.

"Brother has won the battle again. My father is so happy, why can't I be happy?"

Li Yu looked at the sky in a daze, and said to himself, his followers were speechless and didn't know how to answer his question.

"The father hates his teacher so much. If the Zhou Kingdom is destroyed, the father will definitely not tolerate him. However, he is fighting with the Khitan now, so the Khitan will not take him in. He is not familiar with other places. Where should he go? It would be great if he could stay in the Tang Dynasty."

Li Yu was a little worried about Guo Hao. If Guo Hao was here, he would definitely be amused by his cuteness. At that time, he actually cared about the enemy's stay or not. If he was not a prince, he would definitely be arrested as a spy.

...

On the border of Shu, Kong Mingyue arranged business and sat in the teahouse beside her to take a rest. Suddenly she heard someone talking.

"Did you hear that Zhou State encountered Liao State and Tang State attacked, Song State Duke Guo Hao was trapped in the north and could not move, Zhou State Emperor Guo Rong was defeated by Tang Army."

"Yes, Guo Hao can actually block the Khitan. If he were the ones who came to the south, maybe the Tang army wouldn't be so easy."

"Who said no? Guo Wei handed over all the military power to Guo Hao before, but Guo Rong suspected that he coveted the throne, so he did not value him. Now, looking at the posture of Tang Jun, it seems that he will not give up until he achieves his goal."

"So, Zhou Guo is over..."

Hearing this conversation, the tall figure couldn't help but appear in Kong Mingyue's mind. It was him who blocked all the routes of the Salt Gang in Zhou State, which forced her to do other businesses.

But before she did it secretly, but now she can be honest. Because Chai Rong opened up the commercial trade between the two countries, she could not sell salt, but also do other businesses.

"I know you are a hero, but I didn't expect that even the people of my Shu Kingdom would look forward to you so much. But this time, can you still be as domineering as before..."

Kong Mingyue murmured to herself that although she was not old, she had traveled to many places and met many people, but Guo Hao had the deepest impression on her.

Although Guo Hao is very harsh on her, she also knows the reason. If it weren't for her, Qiu Nan wouldn't have happened. Guo Hao was already very tolerant of not destroying them.

So she didn't blame Guo Hao, and she was even a little moved, especially when she heard the war between the two countries, Guo Hao was able to block the Khitan with one man, and he admired him from the bottom of his heart.

Logically speaking, the Southern Tang Dynasty was in an empty time. If Later Shu took advantage of the situation, both Zhou and Tang countries might have taken advantage.

But Meng Chang is different from his father. Although Shu had never participated in the war before, he had no ambition to seize the Central Plains and was only greedy for some small profits in front of him. He was not moved at all such a good opportunity.

Kong Mingyue didn't know what the future would be, nor did she know if she could see Guo Hao again, but she didn't want Guo Hao to be in trouble.

...

When he returned to the Ba tribe in Xianzhou, Abuli heard that the imperial court sent a large army to attack the Great Zhou in the south, and his heart couldn't help but raise it.

"Zhier, isn't mother useless? She spoke big talk in front of him, but two years have passed, but I did nothing."

Two-year-old Guo Ji couldn't understand what his mother was saying, and he was playing around himself. In the huge dome, there were often only the mother and son. Others in the tribe were used to this place and had never thought about what to do in the future.

"Zhier, you have to grow up quickly. Although you are his son, you have to be stronger than him and more powerful than him!"

After hearing this, Guo Ji looked back at him, suddenly smiled at her, then turned around and continued to play. Aburi sighed.

...

While everyone was worried about Guo Hao, Guo Hao was worried about Chai Rong anymore. Now that the Liao army has retreated, the governors from all over the country have asked them to go back, leaving behind a 50,000 army. Even if the Khitan comes, they will not be captured immediately.

In the capital, Guo Hao and everyone looked at the map to the south. Guo Hao said: "The target of the Southern Army is Bian Jing, but in fact, it can be completely passed between Songzhou and Chenzhou.

These two prefectures and counties are not big, and the cities are not strong enough. Bozhou today can be said to be the last line of defense of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Once lost, the Tang army is likely to directly face Bianliang.

But His Majesty is obviously lacking in confidence now, and he dare not take the initiative to attack in the miniature city, but the more he does this, the more passive we will be."

Guo Hao analyzed the situation of the Southern Army. He wanted to help very much and was very anxious, but he did not dare to go there rashly without receiving the transfer order.

In the Bozhou camp, Chai Rong was still in a state of energy. Not to mention fighting, he felt a headache when he thought of losing land and felt sorry for Guo Wei's spirit in heaven.

"Your Majesty, in fact, the more we are at this time, the less we are afraid. We must cheer up. Now the Khitan has retreated, and the Tang army will not last long."

Zhao Kuangyin analyzed the situation and advocated taking the initiative to attack, but Chai Rong was a little afraid of being beaten, for fear of taking the initiative to attack and losing Bozhou, and then Liu Bianliang would be in danger.

So he didn't dare to act rashly. He heard the Khitan retreating his troops and his face calmed down a little. Before the worst time was yet, he really needed to cheer up.

"My brother-in-law is pretty good. She is reliable at critical moments. It's a pity that he is in the north and can't help me. Maybe he will have a way to solve the current predicament."

Zhao Kuangyin felt a little moved when he heard this and said, "Since the Khitan has retreated, why didn't Your Majesty call Duke Song? The Khitan is already afraid of being beaten by him. I believe that he will not invade again in a short time. As for sending a mature and steady general, he immediately."

After Zhao Kuangyin finished speaking, everyone was a little moved. They were also defending the city. Why could Guo Hao defend it, but they couldn't.

Moreover, before the two countries increased their troops, Guo Hao defeated Yang Gun's 10,000 troops, which shows that he has a way to deal with the cavalry.

"this……"

Chai Rong was really tired. At this time, he regretted it. He didn't listen to Feng Dao and insisted on taking the imperial command in person. Now that the old master has left, he suddenly feels a little sad.

"Then let Li Duzhi go, Zhang Yongde goes too. After you go, don't touch Guo Hao's arrangements. If there is any mistake, I'll ask you!"

"yes!"

In one sentence, Li Chongjin was transferred to Hedong. Although it was not good to change players at the last battle, Chai Rong also wanted Guo Hao to share his worries, and Li Chongjin also wanted to leave this fire pit.

Soon, Li and Zhang left, and at the same time, Fei Ge sent a letter to transfer Guo Hao to the south, and the command of the army was temporarily handed over to Zhao Kuangyin.

During this period, the Tang army attacked twice. Zhao Kuangyin remained calm in the face of danger and arranged personnel to defend properly. Although there were some losses, it also blocked the Tang army's attack.

This made Chai Rong relieved and told Zhao Kuangyin to keep it up and persevere until Guo Hao arrived. Maybe there would be a way.

Before he knew it, Guo Hao's position in Chai Rong's heart changed. Although the relationship between the two was a bit special, he couldn't take care of so much at the critical moment!
