Go Hou Mei is a Great General from the state of Wei and the son of great general Go Kei. He is currently the highest ranking officer in the Wei Military.

Appearance

Go Hou Mei is rather young looking for his rank and responsibilities, Unlike other generals, he wears a mantle and a helmet, under which his long light colored hair can be seen.

Personality

Go Hou Mei is a very calm and tactical minded individual when it comes to warfare, He is very patriotic towards his state and his father, stating several times how he will avenge his death at the hands of Duke Hyou, Go Hou Mei has no qualms about sacrificing people to protect himself, such as when he used Rei Ou and a soldier dressed as him as decoys to enable his escape from Shin. On the other hand, he was rational about his tactics as he states that Rei Ou had lost his edge while he would surpass the latter in a year. Thus he concludes that with the most of the Fire Dragons lost, his death would lead to the end of Wei in the wars to come.

History

Go Hou Mei is the son of the legendary great general, Go Kei. Based upon how he refers to Rei Ou as "Sensei", it can be inferred that Go Hou Mei was trained in military tactics from a young age by Rei Ou. His accomplishments helped him climb the ranks fast and reach the rank of general at a young age. When the Coalition Army was formed, he was appointed commander of the Wei army.

Story

Coalition Invasion Arc

Go Hou Mei is first seen when the Wei army encountered Duke Hyou on their approach to the Qin city of Chuukou. Warning Shu Hi not to underestimate his father's killer, he orders the men to trap them in a pincer formation. When the Hi Shin unit destroy the formation, he begins using the Ryudoryoku but the Duke halts his men and retreats to the Qin HQ. Wondering if the Duke knew what he was about to do, Go Hou Mei dismissed the notion and stated that only Ri Boku would understand the skill.

On the 4th day of battle, Go Hou Mei is intrigued by the Duke's abilities, wishing to observe them but the arrival of the Zhao army forces the Qin troops to flee. Meeting with Ri Boku, he deduces the need for a continued attack on the Qin state and is shocked at the reason for which the Zhao general called for the Coalition Army. At the Fuuman Plains, Go Hou Mei is the first to arrive at the meeting for all five leaders of the gathered armies and notes that Ordo is sharper than he looks upon hearing the Yan general speak.

Go Hou Mei is a strategist who is both inventive and cunning. He is also versed in engineering as he designed a siege tower (including a weight and lever system) specifically for the height of Kankoku Pass and siege crossbows that can fire bolts that are 4 meters long. This was impressive as siege crossbows were not commonly used at the time due to difficulties making them and he was able to manufacture enough of them to quickly be on the verge of overcoming the famous Kankoku pass with the combination of bolts, ladders, rope, and nets to form makeshift ladders that can scale even the walls of Kankoku Pass. It is noted that his skill in engineering is unmatched by any contemporary opponent as of now. 

He also mentioned doing research into poisons but realised his expertise would never match that of Sei Kai.

Go Hou Mei used the same pincer tactic his father did in the Battle on Dakan Plains and this seems to be the best way to utilize their war chariots in battle. When his army engaged that of Duke Hyou's, he uses the Ryudoryoku with requires excellent coordination and finesse to pull off.

Go Hou Mei currently stands as the highest ranking officer in the Wei Army.

In the Chiyoyou Campaign after Rei Ou's death, he mentioned to Shuu Kou that in one year he would have drawn level with him, and completely surpassed him in the next.
