Chapter 122 Fuyu City

Gao Bufan wanted to go to Fuyu City in Goguryeo to rescue people single-handedly, which was no less dangerous than going deep into a tiger's den. Cui Hu admired this courage and responsibility, so he did not try his best to dissuade him, but only told the former to be careful.

Gao Shixiong and Gao Shiheng also asked to go together, but Gao Bufan sternly refused this time. Firstly, their mounts were far inferior to Qingyun Shenjun, which would definitely slow down the trip; secondly, they were whirring.

It's easy to reveal one's temperament. After all, this time we are entering an enemy country, and if we are not careful, we will be exposed, so the fewer people there, the better. The third reason is naturally for the safety of Gao Shixiong's brothers. If the two of them have an accident in Goguryeo, Gao will be exposed.

It is not easy for Bufan to explain to their father, Gao Shiqing.

Without further ado, although it was still a few hours before dark, Gao Bufan still mounted his big green horse and set off alone. Carrying only his sword, bow, tent and ten days of dry food, he headed towards Fuyu City alone.

.

Fuyu City was the area around Siping City in Jilin Province in later generations. During the Sui Dynasty, everything east of the Liao River was ruled by Goguryeo, which naturally included Siping. From the map, at least from the Khitan League tent to Fuyu City

It's six to seven hundred kilometers, which means that Gao Bufan's trip is truly a thousand-mile journey alone.

Although the snow has stopped now, the sky is still groggy, the northwest wind is still raging like a knife, and the snow on the ground is more than a foot deep. Everywhere you look, it is a vast expanse of white. The mountains in the distance, the trees near, and the thousands of ravines are all covered in ice and snow.

If you don’t have some experience, you may not be able to tell the difference between east, west and north, let alone rush in such an environment.

Of course, this is not a problem for Gao Bufan. After all, he was a professional soldier in his previous life and received strict outdoor survival training. Distinguishing direction in various harsh environments is a required course.

At this time, Gao Bufan rode his horse up a snowy ridge. He took out the map and compared it for a moment before finding the direction. He stroked the big green horse's mane that was ruffled by the cold wind and said softly: "Good fellow, let's go now."

I have to go to a very dangerous place to save people, so please!"

The big green horse seemed to understand its master's words. It let out a loud neigh in the strong northwest wind, and raised its front hooves to dig at the snow on the ground.

Gao Bufan pointed to the high mountain in the southeast and said, "Look, we have to get to the foot of that mountain to camp before dark."

The big green horse snorted, and in the next second it rushed down the snowy ridge like an arrow from the string, galloping towards the mountain. The big green horse is indeed a very powerful horse, and the temperature at this moment is probably more than ten degrees below zero.

Although it was overheated, it was still full of energy and ran on the snow as if it were walking on flat ground.

Gao Bufan wrapped his cloak tightly, leaned forward, and his buttocks were slightly away from the saddle. His whole body undulated like waves with the rhythm of his mount, trying to reduce resistance as much as possible. One man and one horse rolled through the snow like the west wind, passing over the snowy ridges...



collapse……

With the sound of a string, the arrow shot away like a shooting star. A fox that came out to look for food after the snow was shot and killed on the snow. The big green horse galloped past. Gao Bufan bent down and reached out to kill him.

The fox picked it up, and the next second the big green horse was already more than ten meters away, and disappeared behind the col in a few breaths, so that the few squirrels in the tree didn't even react, and they peeked around a few times.

Then he continued to look for food with peace of mind.

The sky was completely dark. One man and one horse found a sheltered place at the foot of the mountain to camp for the night. Gao Bufan set up a tent and collected dry firewood, while the big green horse used his hooves to dig up the snow on the ground, looking for some dead grass and leaves to satisfy his hunger.

.

The bonfire was lit, the fox was skinned and its internal organs were roasted on the fire. This was Gao Bufan's dinner today. It is worth mentioning that the fur of this fox was fiery red, which was very rare, so Gao Bufan was just a

The arrow pierced both of its eyes without damaging its fur. After drying and tempering, it turned out to be a beautiful natural scarf, which must be worth a lot of money.

The night was as dark as ink, the barren mountains were silent, and a few stars appeared in the sky.

After the self-reliant Da Qing Ma had eaten, he lay down by the fire to rest and recover his strength. Gao Bufan was studying the map carefully. According to his calculations, at Da Qing Ma's speed, he could reach Fuyu City in three days at the fastest, but

I hope Dou Xianniang hasn't been sent away by then.

Fortunately, since the Khitan Su Le planned to dedicate Dou Xian Niang to the King of Goguryeo, he would not touch her along the way, and would even wait on her. After all, the most valuable thing is the complete and vivid beauty.

The weather cooperated, and it turned out to be sunny the next day. Gao Bufan put away his tent and continued on his way. On the morning of the fourth day, he came to the edge of a large river. The river was already frozen and was more than ten feet wide. Gao Bufan estimated that this should be

It is the Liao River, which means that after crossing the river, it will be the territory of Goguryeo.

It has to be said that Goguryeo during the Sui Dynasty was quite powerful. Its territory not only covered the entire Korean Peninsula, but even most of Liaoning and Jilin were occupied by it. It was not until the Tang Dynasty that it was defeated by the Tang Dynasty cavalry.

.

"stop!"

As soon as Gao Bufan led his horse across the Liao River, a small group of cavalry rushed out from a forest on the other side of the river and surrounded him. Judging from their clothes, they should be Goguryeo soldiers. Fortunately, there were not many, only twelve cavalry.

, probably a small group of rangers responsible for patrolling.

"Who are you? Take off your cloak!" the leader of the Goguryeo soldiers shouted sternly, holding a spear ready to stab and looking sharply.

The other party spoke Goguryeo. Gao Bufan couldn't understand a word, but he could barely guess the other party's intention from his posture and language. He slowly lifted the hood of his cloak, revealing his true face, and asked calmly:

"Does anyone speak Sui dialect?"

The expressions of the Goguryeo rangers suddenly changed slightly, and they cursed: "Damn it, it's a damned Sui dog, kill him!"

The leading Goguryeo soldier took the lead in raising his spear and thrust it towards Gao Bufan's chest. The latter raised his sword eyebrows, stretched out his hand and easily grabbed the spearhead, and then pushed it hard, and the wooden handle of the spear hit it.

On the chest of a Goguryeo soldier, the latter immediately fell off his horse like a weed and fell to the snow, spurting out blood.

The remaining eleven Goguryeo cavalrymen were startled, and hurriedly waved their weapons to greet Gao Bufan. The long sword in Gao Bufan's hand was unsheathed, and the light of the sword was like a sword flying across the sky, killing several people in an instant, showing great power.

Unrivaled in ferocity and unstoppable. The remaining Goguryeo cavalrymen were so frightened that they turned their horses and fled, but Gao Bufan easily shot them to the ground one by one.

The leader of the Goguryeo soldiers was not dead yet. When he saw Gao Bufan walking towards him, he was so frightened that his upper and lower teeth chattered. He actually begged for mercy in Sui dialect: "Hero, spare your life, hero, spare your life!"

Gao Bufan was a little surprised and asked curiously: "Can you speak Sui dialect?"

The Goguryeo soldier nodded and said flatteringly: "Although my mother is from Goguryeo, my father is from Sui, so the little boy has half of Sui blood."

Gao Bufan suddenly said: "It turns out to be a Sino-foreign joint venture!"

The Goguryeo soldiers looked confused, and Gao Bufan did not explain, but simply asked: "Is there a camp near you?"

The Goguryeo soldier shook his head and said: "Our station is in Fuyu City, not far from here, there is no need for a camp!"

Gao Bufan was secretly happy and asked quickly: "How far is Fuyu City from here?"

"About fifty miles!" the Goguryeo soldier replied.

Gao Bufan frowned and said, "That's not close at all. Why are you patrolling so far away? If you dare to tell lies, I will kill you immediately!"

The Goguryeo soldier shuddered intelligently. He had just watched Gao Bufan kill eleven of his companions like a chicken. He dared not hide anything at all, and replied tremblingly: "Actually, we are responsible.

The scout team was inquiring about the news. The Sui army suddenly launched an attack on Liaodong City a few days ago. Lord Eulji Wende was worried that the Sui army would attack Fuyu City, so he sent us to patrol along the Liao River to be on guard against the Sui army's sneak attack across the river!

"

Gao Bufan's heart was moved when he heard this. It seemed that Yu Juluo had really guessed it. Yang Guang really didn't follow common sense. He didn't wait until the spring of next year to launch his attack. Instead, he took advantage of the cold winter to launch a surprise attack. Tsk, tsk, it can be seen from this

, Yang Guang is indeed very good at using troops, but it is difficult to attack the city in such a bad weather environment. If he is not careful, he may lose his wife and lose his troops.

To put it nicely, this is called courage and courage. To put it poorly, it is the mentality of a gambler. Gamblers often only have two outcomes. One is to win by chance and become a gambling king that everyone respects; the other is to lose everything in one night.

In the meantime, he became a pauper, and may even be responsible for a lot of responsibility, and Yang Guang's bet was even more exaggerated, because he almost bet his own Sui Dynasty.

"Who is Eulji Wende?" Gao Bufan asked again.

The Goguryeo soldier's eyes flickered and he said in a dignified manner: "I told you, can you let me go?"

Gao Bufan nodded and said: "Of course, I always keep my word!"

"Lord Eulji Mundeok is the garrison general of Fuyu City. He commands 5,000 troops, including 2,000 cavalry!" In order to survive, this Goguryeo soldier did not hesitate to betray his lord.

Gao Bufan nodded and asked: "Is the Khitan Independent Living Division that took refuge not long ago also in Fuyu City?"

The Goguryeo soldier immediately nodded and said: "Yes, yes, the Khitan who is taking the lead is named Su Le, and he is in Fuyu City at the moment."

Hearing this, Gao Bufan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "You are very honest. If you answer one more question, I will let you go."

"You ask, I know everything I know!" the Goguryeo soldier said quickly.

"The Khitan man named Su Le captured a Sui Dynasty woman and said that she would sacrifice it to the King of Goguryeo. Did you know?"

The Goguryeo soldier shook his head blankly. It seemed that he really didn't know, but given his status, it was not surprising that he didn't know.

"Let's go!" Gao Bufan waved his hand and said calmly.

The Korean soldier was overjoyed. He covered his chest and endured the pain and got on his horse. Then he galloped wildly, glancing back from time to time, fearing that Gao Bufan would shoot a cold arrow behind him.

Gao Bufan did not fire an arrow, nor did he chase him. He just watched quietly as the Goguryeo soldier ran away. However, the latter only ran a hundred meters away. As if possessed by an evil spirit, his body froze and he jumped from the back of the galloping horse.

I fell down and never got up again.

Gao Bufan shook his head. In fact, the handle of his gun had already broken the opponent's sternum. If he lay still, it would be fine for now. But once he got on the horse and ran wildly, under the bumps, once the broken bone penetrated the heart, he would not die.

Gotta die.

Sure enough, when Gao Bufan rode his horse closer, he found that the Gaoju soldier had vomited blood and died. The horse stood a few meters away and looked around blankly.
