"Fire the cannon!" Zhu Di roared in a hoarse voice, and then a roar broke out from the artillery position, knocking down the Timur cavalry that was charging in the distance. The battlefield was cleared, but soon more cavalry rushed over from the rear, and the situation on the battlefield became even more tense.

This is the seventh day that Timur besieged the Ming army camp. During these seven days, both sides were in battle almost all the time. The battlefield was full of corpses of people and horses. Because the weather had become hot, the corpses were easily decayed, and neither side had time to collect the corpses, which also caused the entire battlefield to stinking.

If it is in normal times, both sides of the war will suspend the war and send teams to collect corpses to clean the battlefield temporarily. This is not due to humanitarianism, but because there are too many corpses, it is easy to cause plague. Once the plague spreads, there may be more people who die on the battlefield.

However, both sides are now red in their eyes and have no time to pay attention to the corpse, especially Timur. The reinforcements of the Ming army may come back at any time. He must seize the time to break through the Ming army's camp. Only in this way can there be a possibility of a turnaround.

Faced with Timur's desperate style of playing, Zhu Di and Fu Youde were under tremendous pressure. They had already abandoned the outer camp before and reduced their troops to defend the core camp.

However, even if the troops were reduced, the Ming army's defense line was almost broken several times. The main reason was that Timur's fighting style was too hard. In order to compete for a line of defense, he even directly used his life to fill it up. The Ming army could not withstand such consumption, so the battle was very passive.

The war continued until the evening, and Timur's offensive finally slowed down. After all, his soldiers were not machines and needed rest and food. Even if they took turns to send troops forward, there would be a gap.

When Zhu Di saw Timur's main army retreating, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then he asked the people behind to deliver the food immediately, so that the soldiers could hurry up and have a rest and replenish their energy. Don't think that Timur would not attack at night. In fact, Timur often launched raids these days.

Taking advantage of this rest time, Zhu Di also came to Fu Youde's handsome tent. As soon as he came in, he smelled a strong smell of medicine. Then he saw Fu Youde sitting there with his shirtless, and a doctor next to him was changing the medicine for the wound on his arm.

In order to boost morale in the army, Fu Youde also came to the battlefield to inspect, but was shot into the left arm by a scattered arrow. However, Fu Youde pulled out the arrow and patroled the battlefield like a ok, but when he returned to the tent, he almost fell to the ground. After all, he was old and the arrow shot deeper, and the bleeding just dyed his inner armor.

"General, how do you feel?" Zhu Di immediately asked with concern after coming in. Although he could help Fu Youde command the army, Fu Youde was the commander of the army. So if he fell down, it would also be a heavy blow to the morale of the Ming army, especially at this critical moment, Fu Youde's physical condition was even more related to the safety of the entire army.

"Fortunately, people can't accept old age. I remember when we attacked Canyuan together in the northern expedition, I was still going to fight to kill the enemy after several arrows. But now I've just been hit by one arrow and I feel exhausted." Fu Youde, who was pale, also smiled bitterly and said to Zhu Di. When he led his troops to attack the grassland, Zhu Di had been his deputy general, so this time the two of them cooperated so well.

"Not to mention you, the old general, even I sometimes feel that my energy is far less than when I was young." Zhu Di also sat next to Fu Youde with a smile, and also looked at the other party's wounds in person. When he saw that the wound had already healed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Temur is simply crazy. He has been attacking our camp almost sleeplessly these days, and the casualties of the soldiers in the army are also very serious. If there were reinforcements outside, many people would have been unable to hold on." Zhu Di said again at this time.

"Hehe, the more crazy Timur is, the more pressure he is under, and Song Sheng's army is probably coming back soon. If he can't defeat our camp, he will probably face a situation of defeat. If it were me, he might be even more crazy than him." Fu Youde sneered when he heard this.

According to the distance estimate, Song Sheng's army should have been back in the past two days, so Timur is so crazy. In contrast, although Zhu Di and Fu Youde were a little embarrassed in defense, they were very calm.

"That's true, but Song Sheng came back too slowly. I told him before he left, asking him to return to help as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams, but I really hit the mark." Zhu Di was a little upset at the end of his speech. They were too careless at the beginning, or underestimated Timur, but he didn't expect that he had the strength to fight back in desperate situations.

"This is normal. Song Sheng must have captured a lot of prisoners. Even if he only brought back some important figures, he would probably slow down the army's itinerary. However, after receiving the news of our request for help, he should speed up the itinerary." Fu Youde said again.

When Timur besieged them before, Fu Youde immediately sent someone to take a hot air balloon and flew out to report to Song Sheng. However, due to the distance, it took time for Song Sheng to return to help.

While talking, someone brought Zhu Di's food in. After all, he had been busy for a day and had no time to eat on the battlefield, so Zhu Di was not polite. He immediately ate a big meal and quickly filled his stomach.

Fu Youde originally wanted Zhu Di to lie down and rest, but just after Zhu Di finished his meal, he heard the sound of killing outside again, which made Zhu Di slam the table in anger. Timur was not only cruel to the enemy, but also to his own people, and did not give both sides any rest time.

So Zhu Di also stood up immediately and stepped outside to command the army to meet the enemy. Fu Youde wanted to help, but he was powerless and could only stay in the tent honestly to recover from his injuries. However, he was also grateful in his heart that thanks to His Majesty who sent Zhu Di to help him, even if he really fell down, with Zhu Di's identity and prestige, it would be enough to support the army. It would not be possible for anyone else.

It was another sleepless night. Timur and Zhu Di were both on the battlefield, and the army on both sides was difficult to resolve. The Ming army was based on the strong camp as the foundation and could not defend it. Timur was desperately trying to break through the Ming army's defense line, but unfortunately he was defeated by the Ming army many times in the end.

However, just when it was dawn, Timur's rear army suddenly became a mess, and the sound of artillery was connected, which shocked the Ming army, because the familiar sound of artillery told them that their reinforcements had finally arrived!
