Chapter 79 Still handsome

Chapter 104 Still handsome

Xue Rengui was confused.

He really likes to study military books, because his father Xue Gui once served as an official in the Sui Dynasty, so there are many military books in his family.

Xue Rengui enjoyed reading when he had nothing to do. Although he did not actually lead troops to fight, he was well versed in it and often used flowers, plants and trees as soldiers to arrange troops.

However, the only person in the world who knew that he was talented was his wife Liu.

That's why Xue Rengui was so surprised, because Li Chengqian sent someone to invite him in Qianzhou, thousands of miles away.

At that time, Xue Rengui wanted to refuse, because he had to guard the graves of his ancestors.

But his wife, Liu Shi, grabbed his ears and told him softly: "His Royal Highness King Qian has a great reputation, and you have nothing to do with farming at home. It's time to go out and venture out."

Xue Rengui definitely would not do it, so Liu Shi gently stroked his face a few more times, Xue Rengui touched his red and swollen cheeks, and willingly followed the guards to Qianzhou.

So now, Xue Rengui is still in a state of confusion.

Li Chengqian smiled slightly, and said: "Xue Rengui, I called you here because I want to reuse you. From today onwards, you will be General Zhongwu, in charge of the entire Qianzhou army!"

When Xue Rengui heard this, a touch of excitement and excitement appeared on his calm face in an instant.

"Your Highness, you... are you serious?"

Li Chengqian said: "This king always keeps his word, as long as you agree, the appointment will be made immediately."

"I believe you also know that there is no need to report to the imperial court about the affairs of Qianzhou, so this king said you are, you are!"

Xue Rengui took a breath, without any hesitation or hesitation, he directly knelt down on one knee to Li Chengqian, and said loudly: "Xue Rengui, the villain, will definitely not insult His Highness's trust!"

"What about the villain?"

Xue Rengui immediately changed his words, "The last general Xue Rengui!"

"Ok!"

Li Chengqian nodded in satisfaction, seeing how Xue Rengui was pleasing to his eyes.

In the ranking of generals in the Tang Dynasty, he can at least be ranked in the top ten.

Moreover, at this time, Xue Rengui had not yet joined the army, and as soon as he came, he made him a loyal general and commanded the Qianzhou army.

At this moment, he must be full of gratitude to himself. For a person like Xue Rengui, this kind of kindness is enough to make him loyal for a lifetime!
Li Chengqian knows Xue Rengui's character well, but also knows his own charm.

Others see beauty in the eyes of beholders, to put it bluntly, he is handsome in the eyes of enemies.

After putting away the fiery gaze in his eyes, Li Chengqian walked up to him, put his hands on his shoulders, and wanted to pull him up, "Xue Rengui, this king knows that you are talented, so I will reuse you, I hope you don't let me go!" Let me down!"

Unexpectedly, Xue Rengui straightened his waist, but did not get up, "Your Highness, the kindness of knowing you is like rebuilding, Xue Rengui, the last general, will definitely be the only one who will look after you in the future, even if you go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, you will not hesitate!"

Li Chengqian knew that generals were stubborn, so he let him kneel on the ground. Of course, he was also very relieved, at least he knew that he did not trust the wrong person.

"Rengui, you must be tired after traveling from Jiangzhou to Qianzhou. Let's rest for the night first, and tomorrow I will take you to the military camp to understand the situation."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Only then did Xue Rengui stand up.

Li Chengqian greeted the guard, and the guard left with him in strides.

At this moment Zhuge Liang came out from behind the screen and said, "Your Highness, do you really trust this person so much?"

"Then what do you think of him?" Li Chengqian asked back.

Zhuge Liang thought for a while and said, "Restraint."

"Yes, restrained!" Li Chengqian said with emotion: "The sword has not yet come out of its sheath, and when it comes out of its sheath, it will surely shock the world!"

"Hehe..." Zhuge Liang smiled.

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure you have nothing else to ask me?"

Zhuge Liang pursed his lips, "Your Highness, I really don't want to understand that the governor of Jiangzhou has sent Xue Rengui's household registration to Qianzhou,"

"The lower officials have checked. Although Xue Rengui's ancestors are famous, but when it comes to his father, Xue Gui, he is only Zanzhi of Xiangcheng County, and he died early, so Xue's family is in decline."

"Then Xue Rengui is over [-] years old, but he hasn't made any achievements, let alone any outstanding places. If you appoint him as a loyal general and command the Qianzhou army, will it be too hasty? I'm afraid that the soldiers will not be convinced. ah!"

"If he can't convince those soldiers, it will prove that the king is wrong, and let him go back wherever he came from."

"However, this king believes in him. It is no exaggeration to say that if you give him some training, his military ability will be no less than any veteran in the court!"

"Huh? Could it be that Your Highness... has already paid attention to Xue Rengui?" Zhuge Liang asked in surprise.

Li Chengqian didn't answer Zhuge Liang's words, but said meaningfully: "You just need to know that this king will never do those meaningless things!"

Zhuge Liang couldn't help looking at Li Chengqian when he heard the words. Seeing his firm eyes and a confident smile on his face, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

Because he knew that Li Chengqian would definitely not do such thankless things.

"And you haven't noticed that this king and this Xue Rengui have a common feature?"

"Oh?" Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows and couldn't help asking: "Which point?"

Li Chengqian picked up a small bronze mirror from the desk case, looked at it, his eyes couldn't help being dazed.

"Same handsome."

"... "

...

The next day, Li Chengqian brought Xue Rengui to the location of Zhechong Shangfu.

Now there are 400 soldiers in Qianzhou, minus the 600 sent to Mengshe Zhao, there are still [-].

Of the 600 people, except for a few hundred patrolling the city, most of them stayed in the barracks for training.

Before arriving at the barracks, I saw endless white tents with round domes nestled like honeycombs in the bottom of the basin.

Moreover, there was a faint sound of shouting and drinking coming from inside.

After walking into the barracks, Li Chengqian asked, "Rengui, what do you think of the Qianzhou army?"

Xue Rengui looked around and saw densely packed soldiers waving their spears in uniform and roaring from their mouths.

Dust was flying in the air, combined with the shouts of the soldiers, it was indeed somewhat chilling.

However, after Xue Rengui saw it, he couldn't help but shook his head.

"Your Highness, although these soldiers have the same movements, there is a big difference in their momentum. I think these soldiers must have been put together temporarily, right?"

"Besides, it's been a while since we entered the barracks, but no one has noticed that the guards are so sparse. If they encounter an enemy attack, I'm afraid they won't be able to react?"

"Generally speaking, the Guizhou army is just like a silver gun with a wax tip, which is only useful but not useful!"

Xue Rengui's face was very calm, but what he said was very hurtful.

Li Chengqian touched his nose. To be honest, he was still quite sad about this evaluation.

Because these days, he has worked very hard to build the Guizhou Army into an elite division.

But for Xue Rengui to say that, it means that he has regarded himself as a loyal general, so these people are already his soldiers!

So seeing Qian Jun's shortcomings, he couldn't help but bring them up.

When he saw Li Chengqian's face turned ugly, Xue Rengui also reacted, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me, the last word is serious!"
