Hi, it’s time to meet everyone again. Today, the History Encyclopedia editor has brought an article about Xue Rengui. I hope you like it.
Xue Rengui was originally a farmer and his family was very poor. But he has been fond of martial arts since childhood, especially good at horseback riding and archery, and has developed a whole set of skills. During Emperor Taizong’s expedition to Liaodong, Xue Rengui enlisted in the army and fought bravely, achieving numerous military feats. After decades of warfare, he once defeated the Nine Surnames Tiele, subdued Goguryeo, defeated the Turks, and made outstanding contributions, leaving behind outstanding military and political achievements such as “good strategy to pacify the enemy”, “three arrows to conquer the Tianshan Mountains”, “divine courage to capture Liaodong”, “loving the people of Xiangzhou City”, and “removing hats to repel ten thousand enemies”.
The first protagonist of the “Xue Family Generals” was a major military commander in the later period of Emperor Taizong’s reign, leaving behind legendary stories such as “White Clothes Defeat Goryeo” and “Three Arrows Conquer the Tianshan Mountains”. Finally, during the expedition to Xiliang, the enemy general Yang Fanzhi was surrounded and accidentally shot and killed by his son Xue Dingshan.
It is said that Xue Rengui was shot to death by his own son with an arrow. When Xue Rengui returned home dressed in luxury, he came to the foot of Fenghuang Mountain and saw a child shooting geese. Suddenly, he saw a big eagle rushing towards the child, so Xue Rengui quickly bent his bow and took an arrow to shoot at the big eagle. However, the eagle missed and injured the child. At this moment, an old Taoist took the child away. After Xue Rengui arrived home, he found out that the child was his son Xue Dingshan.
Later, Xue Rengui marched to Xiliang and was seriously injured at Baihu Pass. At this time, Xue Rengui’s true essence appeared to protect him (it is said that Xue Rengui is the reincarnation of Baihu Star). Just then, Xue Dingshan arrived and saw a white tiger in front of Xue Rengui. Xue Dingshan mistakenly thought that the white tiger was going to eat Xue Rengui, so he shot an arrow without hesitation. As a result, the white tiger disappeared and Xue Dingshan’s arrow hit Xue Rengui’s chest. So Xue Rengui hung up.
This is one report after another. Xue Rengui’s previous life was a white tiger, so he had the power of nine oxen and two tigers, while Xue Dingshan’s previous life was a great Peng Golden Eagle. It is said that tigers and eagles are mutually exclusive. When the father and son hit each other, if they meet, either the father shoots his son with a bow and arrow, or the son shoots his father with a bow and arrow.
