As expected, Li Fengxian no longer thought about continuing to compete with the Ming Dynasty frontier army to test military formations.
Each of the two armies won one battle and lost another, and both sides suffered losses.
Li Fengxian was worried that if he continued the contest, Chen Changfeng would break his own formation again.
The third prince was also worried that if he continued to compete, what would he do if Chen Changfeng could not break the enemy formation, or if Chen Changfeng could break it but would not help him break it.
The two armies faced each other, but they unanimously agreed and no one provoked the other side.
Both sides silently led their troops back.
The faces of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty's border army were full of excitement.
Who would have thought that Liu Shenyan would be defeated at the hands of Xu Gongmao, and that Xu Gongmao, the world's number one formation master, would be defeated by their prince Chen Changfeng.
That Xue Rengui is also very powerful.
Yan Chou was a famous general in the Chu Empire, and he also killed many generals of their Ming frontier army.
But in the duel with Xue Rengui, he was killed by Xue Rengui with just a few moves.
Who is Xue Rengui? He is just a small fire-headed soldier.
Although this match looked like a draw between the two sides, in fact, their Ming frontier troops still won.
Moreover, the famous general of Chu was killed by a fire-headed army, which was enough to make people laugh for several years.
"Xue Rengui, you have stood out this time, congratulations."
"I didn't expect Xue Rengui to have such ability, but your luck is even better. His Highness the Crown Prince can actually let you go to the battlefield."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a keen eye for talents, otherwise Xue Rengui, no matter how capable you are, it will be useless."
Congratulations poured in. Xue Rengui stood outside Chen Changfeng's tent, his face full of joy.
The soldiers who congratulated him were right. If the prince hadn't valued him and allowed him to go to the battlefield, Xue Rengui would not have performed as well as he did today.
Furthermore, if Chen Changfeng had killed himself without any explanation when he poisoned the Ninth Prince, Xue Rengui would have been a corpse long ago.
"What you are saying is that if the prince hadn't valued me, I wouldn't be where I am today."
"In this case, I'll ask the prince to give me a day off later, and I'll treat everyone to a nice meal." Xue Rengui said with a smile on his face.
"Then let's just say this, you kid can't default on the debt."
"That's right, then we can wait for you." Everyone laughed and then dispersed.
Xue Rengui patted his face, calmed down his excitement, and then walked into Chen Changfeng's tent.
"My subordinate, Xue Rengui, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince." Xue Rengui knelt down on one knee and raised his fists.
Chen Qingzhi looked at Xue Rengui with a look of admiration on his face.
He was previously worried that Xue Rengui would die in the military formation, but he did not expect that Xue Rengui could kill the famous Chu general Yan Chou.
It's a pity that such talents have been wasted in the Huotou Army before.
"Sit." Chen Changfeng pointed to the stool next to him.
Xue Rengui stood up, but did not sit down: "Today, His Highness the Crown Prince values him, and my subordinates can go into battle to kill the enemy. This is what they have wanted for many years. If His Highness the Crown Prince does not dislike it, Xue Rengui is willing to follow His Highness the Crown Prince, riding in front and behind the horse, until death."
Xue Rengui bowed again, lowering his head and waiting for Chen Changfeng's answer.
"If you want to follow me just because I let you go into battle to kill the enemy, I advise you to think about it more." Chen Changfeng's answer made both Xue Rengui and Chen Qingzhi stunned.
Chen Qingzhi felt that with Xue Rengui's ability, no matter who he took refuge in, he should be taken under his command immediately.
A large number of rewards will also be given.
When he was willing to surrender, the prince immediately agreed.
How come Xue Rengui is here...
Xue Rengui was also stunned. He thought Chen Changfeng would agree to him immediately, but unexpectedly...
"Your Highness, I, Xue Rengui, have had the desire to serve the country since I was a child. Because of Zhang Baifang's troubles, I have been left in the Huotou Army to waste my time."
"Since Your Highness came here, Xue Rengui has been so kind to His Highness that he not only did not pursue the poisoning of his subordinates, but also allowed his subordinates to go into battle to kill the enemy. Just now, I saw the praise and envy of my colleagues. This is my subordinate's
It was something I never dared to think about before.”
"As far as my subordinates are concerned, Your Highness's kindness will be reborn again."
"If Your Highness is not willing to let your subordinates follow you, I will also be willing to obey orders behind you." Xue Rengui cupped his hands and clasped his fists with a determined look on his face.
Chen Qingzhi thinks Xue Rengui is very good.
And he already said that if Chen Changfeng didn't want him to follow him, he could just listen to the order.
There are really not many people who are so capable and willing to follow Chen Changfeng.
"Your Highness, I think he is pretty good, otherwise..."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the Third Prince has prepared a banquet and would like to invite His Highness the Crown Prince and the two generals today to attend the banquet." Halfway through Chen Qingzhi's words, the voices of the generals under the Third Prince's command came from outside.
Chen Qingzhi closed his mouth and looked at Chen Changfeng.
"Xue Rengui, you can go to this banquet. If you go to this banquet and still want to follow me when you come back, you can come over again." Chen Changfeng looked at Xue Rengui.
Xue Rengui was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
Xue Rengui left the camp. He didn't know what Chen Changfeng meant.
Could it be that after visiting the Third Prince, I am no longer willing to follow him, Chen Changfeng?
"Why didn't the prince agree to let Xue Rengui follow?"
"You even pushed him towards the third prince?" Chen Qingzhi looked at Chen Changfeng with a look of confusion on his face.
Chen Changfeng shook his head: "Xue Rengui has been oppressed by Zhang Baifang for too long. Let him go to the battlefield today. Do you see how excited he is?"
"What if he encounters other temptations in the future?"
"Will he betray?"
Chen Qingzhi opened his mouth. Xue Rengui was indeed very utilitarian, at least it could be seen in today's battle.
Chen Qingzhi was worried that if Xue Rengui was recruited by the third prince, wouldn't they be missing a powerful helper?
"When the third prince sees Xue Rengui's ability, he will definitely try his best to recruit him. If Xue Rengui joins the third prince, then let him go." Chen Changfeng said again, and then picked up the map of the border.
…
Xue Rengui didn't understand why Chen Changfeng didn't let him stay. At this moment, he came outside the third prince's tent.
"General Xue, please hurry up and invite me. Your Highness has been waiting for you for a long time." A general on the side saw Xue Rengui and immediately invited him into the camp with a flattering face.
"Third Prince, are you waiting for me alone?" Xue Rengui was stunned.
The banquet was agreed upon, but there were only the third prince and Liu Shenyan at the banquet.
Did they expect that Chen Changfeng and Chen Qingzhi would not come?
"General Xue has shown great power today, but this prince is in awe of him. Please come to the table quickly." The third prince smiled and pulled Xue Rengui to sit down.
And this seat is still side by side with Liu Shenyan.
Xue Rengui was a little hesitant. He felt that he was still a fire-headed soldier and should not be sitting in this position.
"Don't worry, General Xue. With General Xue's achievements today, there will definitely be no problem when this prince declares to his father that he will be a sixth-rank general." The third prince opened his mouth and said that he was a sixth-rank general.
Xue Rengui's face couldn't help but become excited after hearing this.
The Huotou Army is just a low-ranking soldier. The third prince wants to find a sixth-grade general for himself, so why would Xue Rengui not want to do so.
The third prince looked at Xue Rengui's expression and was secretly happy. If he could recruit Xue Rengui, he would not be afraid that no one would be able to help him deal with Chen Changfeng in the future.
After drinking for three rounds, the third prince looked at the drunken Xue Rengui: "General Xue, you and I are so in love, how about you obey my orders in the future?"
