After all, they are still allies now.

If Zhu Di could place a spy next to Zhu Ming, they could share intelligence, which would also be beneficial to her.

"Boom!"

The sound of a war drum startled everyone present.

Zhu Ming and the Crown Princess frowned and looked at Zhu Di blankly.

This military camp can be considered his home ground.

What plans does this person have?

Different from Zhu Ming and the Crown Princess who were bewildered, Zhu Di looked around with an unhappy expression.

This was never his order.

When marching and fighting, the most important thing is to enforce discipline.

Now they actually dared to beat the drums without my consent. If they were on the march, it would be a capital crime.

"Boom!"

Before they could figure out what was happening, the sound of war drums sounded again.

After the third war drum sounded, a loud horn sounded.

"Happy march!"

Listening to the familiar music, Zhu Di finally reacted and raised his head to look towards the direction of the military camp gate again.

At this moment he finally knew who gave the order to beat the drum.

Zhu Ming and the Crown Princess then realized belatedly and followed Zhu Di's gaze, looking towards the military camp gate.

Dozens of Jinyiwei rushed in from outside the military camp and opened a path through the army.

The eunuch carried the dragon chariot and slowly walked onto the parade ground.

Everyone's attention was drawn to the dragon chariot, and they all knelt down.

Even Zhu Ming, Zhu Di and others stood up and bowed in the direction of the dragon chariot.

"Long live your majesty!"

Amid the shouts of the soldiers, Xu Miaojin jumped directly from Zhu Yuanzhang's dragon chariot, and then carefully took Zhu Yuanzhang off the chariot.

"I'm free of charge!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the entire military camp and laughed a few times.

After receiving Zhu Yuanzhang's order, these people stood up again.

The war drums and marching music just now were played by Zhu Yuanzhang.

He was the only one who had the power to bypass Zhu Di and directly mobilize the army.

"Watching you guys compete makes my hands itchy."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed a few times, then slowly walked towards where Zhu Ming and Zhu Di were with the support of Xu Miaojin.

"Grandpa Huang."

"Father."

Seeing this, Zhu Ming and Zhu Di also tactfully retreated to both sides, giving up the position in the middle.

When passing by Zhu Ming, Xu Miaojin raised her head and looked at Zhu Ming proudly.

How could Uncle Zhu not bring her to this kind of competition?

"Everyone, take a seat."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved at them, signaling them not to be so reserved.

Zhu Ming and others also sat down tactfully.

"Both of you are brave men. Remember, today is a competition."

Zhu Yuanzhang could naturally feel the tense atmosphere among them.

If he hadn't spoken up to dissuade them, the outcome of this competition might not have been so easy to resolve.

These two men are both powerful generals, and he doesn't want any losses to occur among the Ming Dynasty's talents here.

“You shall not murder.”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Wei and Zhu Neng seriously and spoke in a serious tone.

"Yes."

Hu Wei and Zhu Neng did not dare to disobey and responded in unison.

"Okay, then let me see which of the two generals is better."

Zhu Yuanzhang then stood up and clapped his hands with satisfaction.

"General, please."

Hu Wei grabbed his saber, gestured to Zhu Neng for permission, then turned and walked to the training ground.

After bidding farewell to Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Neng followed Hu Wei onto the parade ground, appearing opposite Hu Wei with a spear in his hand.

"Dabi, start."

Seeing that everyone was ready, Yun Qi shouted in a shrill voice.

But after Yun Qi finished speaking, Zhu Neng and Hu Wei did not take any action, but looked at each other vigilantly.

They are all good fighters, so they won't attack easily and expose their flaws.

The more vigilant they were, the more nervous the crowd watching the fight became.

"kill!"

After observing each other for a while, Hu Wei clenched the saber with both hands, shouted loudly, and then rushed directly towards Zhu Neng.

This shout was like a tiger rushing down a mountain, making those who were nearby terrified.

Hu Wei's momentum suddenly surged, suppressing Zhu Neng.

Zhu Neng frowned and raised his spear to block Hu Wei's saber.

The powerful blow made Zhu Neng's palm numb.

There is no skill involved, just the most primitive strike, yet it already possesses such power.

Zhu Neng did not dare to be careless. He took a half step back and stabbed Hu Wei with a fierce shot.

He had been in battle for a long time and his marksmanship was superb, so he went straight to Hu Wei's vital point.

Hu Wei was unable to dodge and could only jump back to distance himself from Zhu Neng.

Just as he stood firm, Zhu Neng took advantage of the situation and rushed up.

Seeing that his opponent was so strong, Hu Wei grinned. This time he could finally enjoy the battle.

One is imposing and unstoppable.

A calm and reserved man, whose every shot is deadly.

The duel between the two made the spectators fall silent unconsciously, and they watched the competition seriously.

"I hope I'm not late."

Just when everyone's attention was attracted by Hu Wei and Zhu Neng, a somewhat old figure slowly walked through the crowd.

The soldiers who saw the old man being disturbed by him, instead of getting angry, stepped aside respectfully and made way for him.

Not for any other reason, but simply because this old man is the greatest founding hero still alive.

Xu Da, Duke of Wei.

"How's the fight going?"

Xu Da walked to Zhu Yuanzhang's side and asked in a low voice, fearing that he would disturb other people's interest.

"Xu Da, why are you here?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xu Da with some surprise. Why did an old man like him come here to watch the battle in person?

"I feel itchy inside and it's not comfortable."

Xu Da chuckled. When he was young, he was also a fighter on the battlefield.

My body is old now, but my heart is still young.

"Duke Wei, please take a seat."

Yunqi obediently brought a chair, placed it next to Zhu Yuanzhang, and asked Xu Da to sit down.

Xu Da just nodded and sat next to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Daddy."

Seeing her father coming, Xu Miaojin also smiled and called out.

However, Xu Da put his hand to his mouth and made a gesture of silence, signaling Xu Miaojin to be quiet.

Only then did Xu Da turn his attention to the two people fighting on the parade ground.

In a short while, the two had fought for hundreds of rounds, but there was no clear winner.

"That new guy is quite capable."

Xu Da pointed at Hu Wei who was standing opposite Zhu Neng and nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes."

Zhu Yuanzhang also sighed in agreement, saying that this kind of battle reminded them of their youth.

"I think he looks a bit like Chang Yuchun."

Xu Da touched his beard. Both the momentum and tactics of Hu Wei were very similar to those of Chang Yuchun who had charged into battle back then.
