Just when Xue Ju, the governor of Longxi, sent troops.
Not far away in Wuwei County.
Li Gui, the governor of Wuwei, also led his troops towards Guazhou County.
Different from Xue Ju who was originally a ranger in Longxi.
Li Guize, whose courtesy name was Chuze, was born in Guzang County, Wuwei County. He was a wealthy family in the state and was famous in the frontiers for his wealth.
He has been well-read since he was a child, is gentle and good at debating, and has repeatedly recruited heroes from the county to resist the surrounding bandits.
By the time of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty.
Because he is famous throughout the state and county.
He was promoted by Shangguan again.
Li Gui was appointed as the cavalry commander of Wuwei County and commanded 3,000 cavalrymen of the county.
later.
It was also the time when the Turkic Chuluo Khan rebelled.
Shatuo Kingdom, Xiliang Kingdom, and Tuyuhun Kingdom took the opportunity to invade the northwest.
Li Gui then led his troops and horses, recruited heroes from all over the world, and went to the fortress to quell the rebellion.
All of a sudden.
The heroes of the same county, Guan Jin, Liang Shuo, Li Yun, Cao Zhen, etc., came to seek refuge one after another.
With the help of such heroes.
Li Gui defeated the enemy many times, accumulated merits, and was promoted to the governor of Wuwei County.
now.
Because Tuyuhun soldiers and horses invaded the territory.
The imperial court sent Han Qinhu as marshal, responsible for many military affairs in the northwest.
Some days ago.
Han Qinhu wrote a letter in the name of the marshal and sent it to Li Gui's desk, asking Li Gui to send troops to assist.
When Li Gui got the letter, he immediately summoned the generals to discuss it.
During the meeting.
The mastermind Cao Zhen stood up, raised his hands and said: "Tuyuhun is cruel and ferocious. After its troops annex Dunhuang, they will definitely come to invade Wuwei County. Now we should work together to resist foreign enemies!"
Li Gui nodded slightly when he heard this.
then.
The large army of soldiers and horses was assembled in Wuwei County, and marched slowly towards Guazhou County under the banner of the imperial court.
…
All the way.
Nothing special happened.
This Wuwei County is quite close to Guazhou.
Li Gui led his army forward, and after about three or four days' journey, they arrived near Guazhou.
but.
At this moment.
General Guan Jin, who was in charge of inspecting the patrol posts, returned and reported: "General! There are troops and horses of General Xue Ju, the governor of Longxi, coming in front of us. They are approaching slowly."
"Hahaha! Xue Ju is indeed here."
I heard that Longxi soldiers and horses were in front.
Li Gui burst out laughing.
At this time.
Next to him, a handsome young general with a face like a crown jade, eyes like bright stars, a majestic appearance, raised his hands and said: "Father, General Xue Ju is in front, can you let the children go to greet him?"
This young general is none other than Li Gui's son - Li Mao.
Li Mao practiced martial arts since he was a child. He was proficient in bow and horse, proficient in riding and shooting, and he wielded a square-shaped halberd, which made him invincible.
Some days ago.
He had heard the name of Xue Ju's son Xue Rengao many times, and his ears had long been ringing. Now that he saw Xue Ju in front of him, he wanted to compete with Xue Rengao, so he took the initiative to invite him and went to greet him.
Li Gui and Xue Ju are old friends.
How did he know Li Mao's thoughts?
At this moment.
Seeing Li Mao's enthusiasm, Li Gui couldn't help but feel happy. He immediately waved his hand and ordered Li Mao to lead five hundred cavalry forward to greet Xue Ju.
Li Mao was ecstatic when he got the general order.
He carried Fang Tian's painted halberd and rode the flaming purple horse, heading straight ahead.
It won’t take long.
Li Mao walked around a hillside.
He raised his eyes and saw smoke and dust rising in front of him. Two flying tiger flags were spread out, holding out a majestic and high-spirited general.
But seeing this person——
On top of the helmet, Zhu Ying can shine;
The turtle's carapace is golden.
The big red robe is embroidered with a dragon, and the heart-protecting mirror appears in glory.
The treasure belt around the waist is buckled with silk, and arrows are inserted into the saddle like wild geese.
Beat the general with a whip, Wu hooked the sword, and kill people like grass without hesitation.
Immediately hold the Overlord Spear horizontally, sit down on the dragon colt and chase Zidian.
The general came closer, raised his hands and asked, "Are these the soldiers and horses of Uncle Li Gui?"
Li Mao nodded slightly and replied: "Exactly! I am Li Mao, the son of Wuwei Governor, who are you?"
The general felt a little annoyed when he saw Li Mao's rude tone, and said, "I am Xue Rengao, so you are Li Mao and Brother Li?"
"Who is your brother? I heard that you are highly skilled in martial arts, and I feel dissatisfied. I came here to learn a lesson!"
As the only son of Li Gui, Li Mao never had a city and was arrogant.
He waved Fang Tian's painted halberd in his palm, pointed at Xue Rengao, and said loudly.
"Oh? Do you want to compete with me in martial arts?"
When Xue Rengao heard what Li Mao said, he smiled unconsciously.
He said slowly: "I hold the Overlord Spear in my palm. I wanted to drink the blood of Tuyuhun first, but unexpectedly you came to stroke the tiger's beard. You really don't know whether to live or die!"
"Stop talking nonsense, let's see the real seal on our weapons!"
When Li Mao saw that Xue Rengao still looked condescending, he couldn't help but get angry and shouted loudly.
The words are not finished yet.
Li Mao beat his horse and danced with his halberd, and took Xue Rengao directly.
Xue Rengao was also a man of skill and boldness. Seeing Li Mao's menacing attitude, he did not feel the slightest fear in his heart.
He sneered, raised his gun and leaped on his horse, heading straight towards Li Mao.
The two men crossed each other's horses, raised their halberds and spears, and the battle lasted for more than twenty times.
This Xue Rengao has wonderful moves and spears that nod like a phoenix.
That Li Mao had a wonderful killing technique, and his halberd was like a dragon turning around.
The fight between the two generals reached the climax, and Xue Rengao also figured out Li Mao's martial arts routine. Suddenly, he unfolded his spear skills like wind and lightning, moving back and forth like flying, and grabbed into his arms. Li Mao couldn't resist, and he was about to be defeated. Array is coming.
And right now.
Suddenly, a shout was heard from behind Li Mao: "What a sin! How rude!"
The words have not yet finished.
But they saw a large group of soldiers and horses rushing toward the slope.
Seeing this, Xue Rengao immediately drove away Li Mao with a shot, then rode his horse to hold the hillside again, shouting loudly: "Uncle Li! Are you going to be my enemy?"
turn out to be.
The person coming from behind was none other than Li Gui.
When Li Gui heard Xue Rengao's words, he quickly raised his hands and said, "No, no, no! I wanted to come to greet brother Shaoxuan (Xue Ju's courtesy name is Shaoxuan), but I didn't want this bastard to come without permission and confront my nephew... Really forgive me!"
As he spoke, Li Gui bowed his hands to Xue Rengao.
Seeing Li Gui's sincerity, Xue Rengao quickly got off his horse, bowed in return, and said, "Uncle, you don't have to be like this. My nephew is extremely ashamed!"
After saying that.
Xue Rengao turned slightly and welcomed Li Gui, Li Mao and others into his camp.
Two young generals, Xue Rengao and Li Mao, surrounded Li Gui and came to the camp.
Just arrived at the gate.
Xue Ju took his other son Xue Renyue out to greet him.
Li Gui and Xue Ju finished the ceremony.
Li Guite: "Since our last farewell in Daxing City, we haven't seen each other for a long time! Now that I see that my brother is still as charming as ever, I feel very relieved."
Xue Ju said: "Not bad, not bad! After the last meeting, I have met my virtuous brother in dreams many times. Now that we meet again and can fight side by side, I am really happy!"
Li Guite: "In that case, why don't we two go to see Marshal Han Qinhu together?"
Xue Ju said: "It should be so!"
Speaking of which.
The two armies merged.
Set up camp here.
Stay until the next morning.
Xue Ju and Li Gui set up camp, gathered tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and headed straight for Guazhou County.
