Everyone is familiar with "Water Margin", the most classic is the scene where Wu Song drunkenly fights a tiger in Jingyanggang, but there are always people questioning, can people beat tigers? And here I can tell him without a doubt that there are people in history who have been able to beat tigers. The person who can beat the tiger is called Li Guang, the famous flying general Li Guang who has not been able to be a marquis in his life.
Li Guangping loved hunting the most in his life, and when he was a taishou, he heard that there were tigers infested, so he often went to shoot them himself. One day, Li Guang went out hunting and happened to meet a fierce tiger, as for whether it was a Siberian tiger or a South China tiger, this is unknown. I saw that the tiger jumped up and scratched Li Guang, but Li Guang was not afraid and shot the tiger to death with superb archery skills. Of course, there will definitely be people who question that Li Guang shot the tiger to death with a long-range **, which is not a real tiger fight, and it must be wrong for anyone to think so. What do you think, the tiger has scratched Li Guang, it must be a very close distance, it is very difficult to shoot a tiger at a very close range, can this not be considered a tiger? It is estimated that if you were someone else, you would have been scared to pee your pants, let alone shoot a tiger. Do you think Li Guang is considered a tiger?
In fact, it doesn't matter whether Li Guang is a tiger or not, we know that he is very brave and has superb archery skills. But have you ever thought about it, why is Li Guang so brave?
Li Guang is now a native of Tianshui, Gansu Province, and his ancestor was Li Xin, a famous general of the Qin Dynasty who was known for his "bold words". Back then, King Yingzheng of Qin asked Li Xin during the Unification War, how many people were needed to fight the Chu State? Li Xin bragged at the time that only 200,000 people were enough, but he was slapped in the face and returned with a miserable defeat. Of course, Li Xin was not without credit, and the Yan Prince Dan, who planned Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin, was killed by Li Xin. Li Guang was born in such a military family, and has been learning archery skills and fist and foot kung fu for generations, so Li Guang will have martial arts and amazing archery skills.
For example, Li Guang's cousin Li Cai was knighted for his outstanding military exploits, and Li Guang's grandson Li Ling, who fought against the 80,000 cavalry of the Xiongnu with 5,000 infantry and won a lot. These two examples are enough to show that the Li Guang family is indeed a military family, and it is their family's tradition to be able to fight, and the physical fitness of their family members is very good, and their courage is naturally not a problem.
Another time Li Guang went up the mountain to hunt, he saw a colorful tiger not far away, so he hurriedly shot an arrow, and the arrow flew out with a "whoosh", an impartial tiger in the middle. Everyone walked in and saw that this was a tiger, and it was clearly a big rock. After taking a closer look, they found that the arrow had been shot into the stone, and everyone did not hesitate to praise Li Guang's archery skills that no one in the world could match.
Shooting an arrow into a stone and pulling a full bow may not be possible, this is enough to prove that Li Guang has great arm strength, can't this be called bravery?
Li Guang relied on his martial arts, his bravery, and his archery skills, which led to many victories in the war against the Huns, and won the praise of the Huns, and was called "General Fei". However, Li Guang's exploits were not praised by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he was not able to be crowned a marquis until his death, lacking a title.
Now in the eyes of some people, Li Guang is a straw bag general who always gets lost and always loses battles, thus denying all his merits, which is very unfair.
However, it should be accurate to say that Li Guang is a hero who fights tigers.
