Lieutenant Gube inadvertently offended Lieutenant Feihou. Feihou is reckless and likes to put on a show to save face. Gu Bei did not intend to offend, but Feihou insisted on a duel. Gu Bei knew that a duel was pointless, but for the sake of honor, he had to accept the challenge reluctantly. As a result, Feihou was lucky, and when his wounds healed, he actually asked for another round. After that, the two duel again and again. Feihou went crazy, became violent and held a grudge. The duel between the two lasted for fifteen years. After countless duels, Gu Bei can't even remember why he formed a feud in the first place. The two of them only stopped fighting when war broke out

Dr. Jacquin: [to d'Hubert about his situation with Feraud] You cannot fight, one: if you're in different places; physical impossibility. Two: if you're of different ranks; breach of discipline. And three: if the State is at war; duels of nations take absolute precedence. Therefore, keep away from him, keep ahead of him and put your trust in Bonaparte.
