"Oh? And what's going on? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty turned his gaze away from Madame Li and turned to Li Guangli.

Li Guangli brought back so many prey!

Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was greatly surprised, thinking that God had given him another fierce general who was no less than Wei Qing and Huo Quai!

And yet now.

Was it told that this Li Guangli was sleeping on a stone during the hunt?

Where did he get the time to go hunting!

Emperor Wu of Han immediately frowned and asked Li Guangli, "What Huo Guang said just now, do you have anything to say?" ”

Li Guangli immediately pouted, knelt on the ground, and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty, he slandered me, he slandered me!" ”

Seeing Li Guangli like this, Huo Guang snorted and said, "The facts you see with your own eyes can also be called slander?" ”

However.

The court musician Li Yannian opened his mouth to speak for his eldest brother: "Huo Yilang, didn't you come to say that someone suddenly attacked you with a cold arrow when you were hunting?" ”

"Why did you suddenly say that my eldest brother is here?"

"Does the two have anything to do with each other? Or if you can't find someone to put the cold arrow, you will be angry with my eldest brother! ”

When Li Yannian said this, he was obviously a little weak and wanted to change the topic.

But Huo Guang was not used to him.

He snorted softly and said coldly, "What's the matter?" Hehe, then my brother just told His Majesty that someone put a cold arrow on me in Shanglin Yuan, what does it have to do with your Li family! ”

As soon as this remark came out.

Several people from the Li family on the opposite side were suddenly speechless.

As soon as Li Ji saw that his brothers were dumbfounded, he shouted to Huo Guang at this time: "Huo Guang, whether it matters or not, you said that my eldest brother didn't go hunting but lay down on the stone to sleep?" Let me ask you, do you have any evidence for this? ”

Evidence?

In this day and age, there is nothing to take pictures of.

Where can Huo Guang get evidence!

When even frowned, he said, "I saw it with my own eyes, what evidence do you need?" ”

However.

Li Ji laughed and said, "What did you see with your own eyes? Then my eldest brother saw you lying on a stone sleeping with his own eyes, who wouldn't come when he opened his mouth! ”

After saying this.

Li Ji turned his head to Emperor Wu of Han and said, "Your Majesty, when I look at this Huo Guang, it is clear that I see that my eldest brother hunts more than his brother Hussar General, and his eyes are red, and he deliberately splashes dirty water on my eldest brother!" ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty favored the Li family because of Mrs. Li.

Now that he heard what Li Ji said, he naturally nodded and said to Huo Guang: "Huo Guang, you must pay attention to evidence in everything. You don't have evidence that Li Guangli was lazy and slept during the hunt, so you can't say anything about what you saw with your own eyes! ”

"Unless."

"You find someone else who sees it with your own eyes."

Looking for another one?

How do you find this?

Then Li Guangli deliberately chose an unusually remote place in Shanglin Yuan to sleep, and people who normally participated in hunting would not go to that place at all.

That is, Huo Guang wanted to track down the person who suddenly cast a cold arrow on him, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to see Li Guangli sleeping in that place, leaning against a stone!

Come to think of it.

Huo Guang had no choice but to shake his head and say, "Your Majesty, if you say this, it is indeed Chen Meng Lang." ”

"Since Li Guangli shot so many prey today, Chen thought, his archery skills must be very strong, right?"

"If you have a chance in the future, you will definitely have to talk to Li Guangli!"

Huo Guang said this, which originally belonged to the link of ruthless words, and at the same time, it was also to scare and scare Li Guangli.

But he really didn't expect it.

This Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che is also an extremely lively lord, when Huo Guang finished saying the word "sparring", Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che said: "Don't wait for later, I think, you can do it now." ”

"Wasn't it just a hunt? You think it's boring! ”

"Okay!"

"I'm going to have a non-greasy competition, all the soldiers can directly choose their opponents, and you are allowed to fight on the horse!"

"Whoever falls off the horse first loses!"

"Still in doubt?"

When Huo Guang heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.

He knows!

The first purpose of the direct fight mentioned by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was naturally to test the harness. After all, the three things of Takahashi saddle, horseshoe, and stirrup were made out for the sake of fighting each other among the cavalry!

So.

The real effect of these three sets of harness can be tested, and it is the easiest to compete on horseback.

Not beat around the bush!

The Han Dynasty people often used elite soldiers and strong generals to deal with the Huns.

The birth rate of the Xiongnu has always been low because of the geography of the grassland environment. Therefore, the number of people is also very scarce. In the face of the Han tactics of crowds, they can only resist with all the soldiers.

But this case.

It is destined to have a lot of miscellaneous soldiers, which is not as strong as the Han Dynasty's carefully drilled soldiers!

It is said that the Huns are tall and big?

Not really!

The height of the Xiongnu people was not taller than that of the Han Dynasty, which was affected by environmental factors.

But the good thing is that the people on their steppe have basically started riding horses since they were young!

Equestrianism was much stronger than that of the Han Dynasty, and there were sufficient conditions to form a cavalry lineup, which made the previous Han Dynasty repeatedly fail in battles.

To know!

In the era of cold weapons, cavalry fought against infantry, and it was always crushing.

At this time, the cavalry had not yet reached the peak in the true sense.

The pinnacle of cavalry was formed after the appearance of stirrups, horseshoes and Takahashi saddles.

But Huo Guang didn't care about that.

As soon as he heard what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che said, he immediately looked at Li Guangli and said, "Since Your Majesty said that you can challenge, then okay, I'll pick you directly!" ”

"I want to see how much strength you have!"

"But don't be a straw bale!"

"In that case, I'll be disappointed."

Hearing what Huo Guang said, the Li family's teeth were itching, but there was nothing they could do about Huo Guang.

This is something that His Majesty has just approved.

However!

At this time, Li Guangli first looked embarrassed, then suddenly smiled, and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty, I want to refuse Huo Yilang's challenge!" ”

"Big brother, you."

The two brothers of the Li family, Li Yannian and Li Ji, spoke at the same time!

However.

But they were interrupted by their eldest brother reaching out and reassuring: "Don't worry, two younger brothers, brother, I have my own plans!" ”

Seeing this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, was extremely puzzled and asked, "Li Guangli, why don't you dare to take the competition?" You can hunt so many prey, and your strength is no worse than that of Wei and Huo, why don't you even dare to take on Huo Guang's challenge? ”

"It's hard to do it!"

"It's really like Huo Guang said, you didn't hunt, those prey, you cheated to get them?"

Faced with the questioning of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Li Guangli naturally did not dare to slack off!

I saw that he had a slightly arrogant tone, and said bluntly: "What I want to challenge is that General Wei Qing, and only General Wei Qing is qualified to be my opponent!" ”

"Huo Guang, a teenager!"

"He doesn't deserve to be my opponent!"

As soon as this remark came out.

The two brothers of the Li family immediately frowned, not understanding why the elder brother had such a decision.

To know.

Wei Qing has been on the battlefield for so many years and can survive from the battlefield, which shows that his own skills are not comparable to ordinary people.

Challenging Wei Qing?

That's not self-defeating!

They didn't understand Li Guangli's thoughts, but Huo Guang understood a little.

This guy!

It's not easy to think.

Why did he avoid himself and challenge the more difficult General Wei Qing instead?

Very simple!

If you lose to yourself in the challenge, it's over.

If he challenges Wei Qing, whether he can win or not is not said for the time being. Even if you lose, you will also lose to the general Wei Qing.

Lost to Wei Qing?

No shame!

Even if you lose at that time, there is a saying.

After seeing through this, Huo Guang immediately said to Emperor Wu of Han: "Your Majesty, the minister still wants to ask to challenge Li Guangli." Because the general is the highest combat commander of my Han Dynasty! ”

"This Li Guangli is just a common man!"

"If such a person is the case, he can directly challenge the general, it doesn't make sense!"

Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty also let go of Mrs. Li in his arms at this time, and at the same time touched his chin and carefully considered the meaning of Huo Guang's words.

I thought to myself.

There's nothing wrong with what this kid said.

The majesty of the general, if in peacetime, he Liu Che will not only not maintain it, but will even suppress it personally.

But now it's different.

Now that the decisive battle with the Xiongnu is about to begin, the majesty of the commander must be maintained.

So.

Even though Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che was very fond of Madame Li, he still said at this moment: "I think what Huo Guang said is reasonable, whether it is Wei Qing or my hussar general, no one is allowed to challenge the majesty at will!" ”

"So!"

"Li Guangli, if you want to challenge the general, you have to start with Huo Guang first!"

"Of course."

"You shot so many prey in the hunt before, I feel that your strength must be above Huo Guang."

"If you can't even win Huo Guang."

"I really have some suspicions that the prey you shot was obtained by your cheating!"

As soon as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said this, who dared not to listen?

To know!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in his later years, but because some people said a few good words for Li Ling, who defected to the Huns, he was arranged to be punished in the palace.

A ruthless emperor since ancient times!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is a good example.

Now that he is speaking like this, who would dare to go against the wishes of Emperor Wu of Han?

No one argues with it!

Li Guangli complained bitterly in his heart, but there was no way at the moment.

Thereupon!

Li Guangli could only say respectfully: "Since Your Majesty wants to see me compete with this Huo Guang, then obey the will of heaven, and I accept Huo Yilang's challenge!" ”

At the end of such a remark.

Huo Guang and Li Guangli started a duel.

Because you need to use harness.

Huo Guang, as the inventor of the harness, naturally chose a war horse with a harness. And Li Guangli doesn't like war horses with harnesses, he likes horses that don't have any equipment, so he can travel lightly.

So I chose a horse without harness.

That's it for both of them.

In the Shanglin Garden, ride directly on the horse and start fighting.

But.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was afraid that the generals would kill each other, and when the time came, he would be red-eyed, and it would not be good if he accidentally made a dead hand.

So.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty specially ordered that the competition on horseback could only be done with wooden sticks instead of weapons!

So Huo Guang and Li Guangli could only hold wooden sticks of the same length and fight back and forth on horseback.

Face!

With an impact, Huo Guang took advantage of the inertia of riding a horse to rush over, and swept towards Li Guangli's fierce sweep.

This Li Guangli was quick with his hands and eyes, and took out a wooden stick to block it vertically.

He originally thought.

This Huo Guang is much younger than him, how strong can a teenager be?

But I really didn't expect it.

With just one sweep, he didn't choose to dodge, but blocked hard. The force of his stick was so great that it almost knocked him off his horse.

I can't help but feel angry and bloody.

This Li Guangli can ride a war horse, and he doesn't have those three-piece sets of harness!

Sitting on horseback, it is not easy to control the body posture, and at the same time, there is no stirrup for him to use his body.

Such a situation.

He was not beaten out by Huo Guang with a wooden stick, which already showed that his strength was not too bad.

At least!

Much better than the average soldier's physical fitness.

Before the Han Dynasty fought against the Xiongnu, cavalry was not used as a special branch of the army, including in the pre-Qin period.

Like the king of Zhao Wuling who rode and shot in Hufu!

That's just mounted archery, not a truly independent class.

Cavalry, before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was at most a functional branch of the army.

And it is precisely for this reason that Li Guangli despises the power of the three-piece suit.

In the first round of the confrontation, he suffered a dark loss.

The wooden stick vibrated even more to make his mouth numb, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, and said: "This kid has a lot of strength, if there are a few more sticks behind him, even if I block them one by one, I'm afraid my hands will be numb." When the time comes, I can't even hold a stick, so how can I fight? ”

"Nope."

"You must not resist, you have to dodge this kid's attack!"

Li Guangli thought about this, and when he saw Huo Guang sweeping him with a stick again, he went directly to the horse, and he could dodge.

And the picture in the back.

It's funny.

This Li Guangli has been avoiding without fighting, in a vain attempt to consume Huo Guang's strength.

However, Huo Guang is not a fool.

After the next two times when the opponent did not meet his attacks, he immediately changed his sweep to a vertical split, and swung it down violently from top to bottom.

This blow!

Then Li Guangli only has two choices.

Continue to dodge?

Or.

Let the horses be beaten!

There is no doubt that with Li Guangli's temperament, he must be a friend of the dead Dao who is not a dead poor man, let the horse be beaten, and his body soared back, which can be dodged.

However.

This is a bitter horse that was ridden by Li Guangli.

I saw the wooden stick hit the horse, and immediately smashed the horse's back into a depression, and then the neighing of the horse was heard.

In a flash!

saw the horses jumping wildly, trying to throw Li Guangli down.

And Li Guangli.

At this moment, I can only devote all my energy to controlling the reins of the horse, because there is no Takahashi saddle and stirrups, so no matter who is it, it is very likely that the horse will be thrown off.

Even Huo Guang is the same!

And the result of throwing it off is naturally to lose!

This is not a consequence that Li Guangli can bear, he must not fall off the horse.

But Huo Guang didn't give him a chance to control the horse, and immediately took the wooden stick, no longer using a sweep or vertical split, but stabbing at Li Guangli with the simplest poke.

Poke!

It is generally used as a weapon for guns.

But no one stipulates that sticks cannot be used.

If it's a gun.

It should be continuously poked at the enemy for maximum lethality.

It's a pity that Huo Guang is holding a wooden stick in his hand, and he doesn't have the lethality of a spear. So he could only use the powerful blow to poke at Li Guangli.

This poke!

It stands to reason that as long as Li Guangli reacts quickly, he will be able to dodge.

But the problem is

Whoever made the other party now focus on controlling the reins of the horse.

When he found Huo Guang poked with a wooden stick, his whole body had already flown out in the air!
