Chapter 157 Cooperation

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the reinforcements coming from the top of the city, his eyes lit up and he said, "Tell the brothers to prepare to go out of the city to meet the enemy!"

Wang Er immediately went down to make arrangements for the attack.

Xie Hongfang stared at the city head, and the two people's eyes seemed to collide fiercely in the void, with sparks flashing.

The two sides fought together. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the enemy who was fighting to the death and said loudly: "Brothers, hold on, reinforcements are already on the way, you must hold on!"

Xie Hongfang looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's figure on the battlefield and snorted coldly: "He is a weak scholar who dares to go into battle to kill the enemy, so I can do the same!"

As he spoke, he picked up his spear, rushed into the battlefield on horseback, picked off one man with one shot, and rushed straight in the direction of Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Xie Hongfang rushing toward him, he snorted coldly, jumped up, grabbed a black horse, and pointed his sword at Xie Hongfang.

The two stopped about fifty steps apart. The noise of the battle around them seemed to have disappeared. The world became silent, the surroundings began to become blurry, and there were only two people standing looking at each other in the world.

The wind whistled, and the two of them said nothing. Only the sound of weapons clashing and the heavy breathing of horses. Zhu Yuanzhang tightly held the long sword in his hand so as not to let go of the weapon.

Xie Hongfang looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who had not lost in the fifty or sixty rounds with him and admired: "Brother Zhao Xian, it seems that he is not an ordinary weak scholar!"

"Brother Xie, in this world where everyone eats each other, weak scholars are easily eaten up!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

"Brother Xian, are you blaming your elder brother?"

"It's useless to talk more. Let me see the truth!" Zhu Yuanzhang stepped on the horse and flew towards Xie Hongfang.

Xie Hongfang was unable to evade and was pulled off his horse. The two of them beat each other to the flesh, with no one willing to fall down first.

Suddenly a shout of death came, and both of them showed a relaxed smile.

Xie Hongfang frowned, a little surprised that he didn't see Wei Chang's figure.

"Brother Xie seems to be waiting for someone?" Zhu Yuanzhang said jokingly, looking at Xie Hongfang's expression changing.

"What, what's going on?" Xie Hongfang shouted angrily.

"Brother Xie forgot, Qianxi County was handed over to you from me. It's just that Brother Xie seems to trust his younger brother too much," Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

"you you!"

"Poof!" Xie Hongfang spat out a mouthful of blood.

With the reinforcements, the morale of the defenders greatly increased and they immediately rushed towards the attackers. Xie Hongfang lamented: "It's over!"

Xie Hongfang looked at the high-spirited Zhu Yuanzhang and said coldly: "Withdraw!"

The army was defeated like a mountain, the formation was suddenly in chaos, people were crowded, and countless people were trampled to death in an instant. Xie Hong retreated to Yunhe County.

, "Brother, do you think who is this?" Wang Er came over carrying a figure.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xue Cong who was covered in blood and joked: "Isn't this our military advisor Xue Da?"

Xue Cong said with a distorted face: "Kill if you want, why bother me?"

"Humph! We gave you a chance, but you disappointed us so much. If you left safely, how could you end up in this situation?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked sharply.

"It's just a winner and a loser. Xie Hongfang didn't expect that his most trusted brother would betray him." Xue Cong smiled contemptuously.

"Take him down!" Zhu Yuanzhang ignored him.

Looking at Xie Hongfang who led the remaining soldiers to retreat, he said: "Brothers, follow us to chase them down!"

Yunhe County

Tu Yuanwai waited anxiously at the fort on the outskirts of the city. When he saw General Fei, who was guarding the city, he appeared and asked, "How is it?"

But before General Fei could say anything, thick smoke began to fill the entire fort, and shouts of death began to be heard outside the house: "Brothers, surround this place!"

Tu Yuanwai said with some horror: "What should we do?"

"Mr. Tu, please don't worry. I've sent someone to ask for help from General Xie. If we rely on these people to persist for a while, everything will be fine." General Fei reassured Mr. Tu.

Xie Hongfang looked at his remnant soldiers of only 2,000 men and sighed: "We are betraying our relatives and leaving!"

"General Xie, we will definitely make a comeback. Don't forget that there are still many brothers in Yunhe County. Our family fortune is still there!" his subordinates comforted him.

Xie Hongfang stood up and said: "I, Xie, have written down the great kindness of all brothers. If I have the opportunity to do it all over again, I will definitely not forget you!"

"General Xie!" A loud shout attracted Xie Hongfang's attention.

"What's the matter?" Xie Hongfang asked in a deep voice.

"Yunhe County was attacked and is now in danger," the soldier said anxiously.

Xie Hongfang was so angry that he fainted and fell to the ground.

"Jie General!"

Everyone helped him up, and Xie Hongfang woke up leisurely. He looked as if he had aged ten years, and asked weakly: "Where am I now?"

"On the way back to Yunhe" the person on the side replied.

When Xie Hongfang heard this, he immediately became energetic and said: "Hurry up and help Yunhe!" Xie Hongfang struggled to get up, got on his horse and led everyone to gallop towards Yunhe County.

When Xie Hongfang came to Yunhe City, he shouted loudly: "Feiluo, open the city gate quickly!"

"General Xie, you're fine!" Liu San threw a package downwards.

"General, be careful!"

Everyone looked at the wide-eyed General Fei and were shocked. Xie Hongfang forced himself to ask: "Where are my wife and father-in-law?"

Liu San asked people to carry out the corpses of a man and a woman and said: "My wife was fierce and refused to surrender and hanged herself to death. Mr. Tu was frightened and died. I didn't want to do this to General Xie, but I was helpless."

"It's so helpless. I actually believed that Zhao Sheng was a kind and righteous man. I didn't expect that he would resort to such despicable methods!"

"Brother Xie, this statement is a bit biased!" Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came.

"I originally wanted to work for Brother Xie, but how did Brother Xie treat me? He was headstrong, nepotistic and even wanted my life. I just passively fought back!" Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly.

Xie Hongfang saw the expressions of some people around him changing slightly, and sighed and said, "That's all, Zhao Sheng, I only have one request now."

"explain!"

"Please be kind to these brothers." Xie Hongfang said, putting his sword around his neck and looking at his wife on the tower, "In a flash, I am coming to find you!"

"General Xie!" everyone shouted as they looked at Xie Hongfang who fell off his horse.

"San'er, let's bury the two of them alive, so that we can live as husband and wife," Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.

Liu San led his men to gather the two corpses together, and led others to surround the remaining soldiers.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked in front of everyone, Liu San and Wang Er stood in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang pushed them away and said: "These are all brothers, what are you doing?"

Zhu Yuanzhang pushed the two men away and said: "Everyone, I still say what I am doing is to protect ourselves. We are all poor people who come together just to survive in this troubled world, so we should not kill each other.

"Enough brothers have died, I'm tired."

"San'er, let them leave. If they are willing to stay, they will not be punished." Zhu Yuanzhang said and walked into Yunhe County alone. His lonely back looked so lonely and heroic. There was no one around him, so he would do it himself.
