Chapter 378 - 378 378 Life and Death in an Instant

378: Chapter 378: Life and Death in an Instant 378: Chapter 378: Life and Death in an Instant Han Feng led the way, clearly feeling that Xiang Yu’s movements had slowed considerably.

Moreover, Xiang Yu had already lost his sense of judgment of the surroundings and could only barely follow Han Feng forward.

Just then, Han Feng suddenly stopped, then looked at Xiang Yu with a bitter smile and said, “We’ve been surrounded, and the chances of breaking through are slim to none.

But it’s a stroke of luck to get to know you before I die.”

At that moment, Han Feng was quite calm, showing that he did not fear death.

Then he sat down and sighed as if he was about to be relieved.

Han Feng smiled relaxedly and said, “Actually, I am a mercenary.

Two years ago, my partner was killed.

In our organization, death is quite normal, but I couldn’t accept it because he was my brother.

To avenge my brother, I killed all the opponents and even killed the employer too.

It was because of this that I was blacklisted,”

“Many people outside have been looking for me, including the mercenary group I used to work with.

Eventually, I came here.

After Zhuge Tian learned my identity, he wanted to take me in, but I didn’t agree, so he locked me up there.”

Han Feng spoke indifferently, as if he was telling a story and not his own personal experience.

“So it was you,” Xiang Yu responded, managing only a bitter smile.

Back then, the army that Xiang Yu was in had received a notification to arrest a mercenary named Han Feng on sight or shoot him if he could not be captured because this person was extremely dangerous.

If such a person slipped into society, the harm caused could be significant.

“You’ve heard of me?” Han Feng said with a somewhat proud smile.

At that moment, people from the surrounding area slowly started to converge towards their hiding spot.

Xiang Yu could almost see their steel helmets.

“Meeting you before dying is also worth it.

You’re a good big brother, a brother worth making,” Han Feng smiled and then prepared to rush out.

Just then, a burst of dense gunfire suddenly came from the distance.

The sound was messy and chaotic, but vigorous, with the occasional sound of rocket explosions.

“Damn, which group came now.” Han Feng had been planning to dash out, but seeing this situation, he quickly hid back in his spot without moving.

Those encircling them evidently hadn’t anticipated this turn of events.

Their leader received instructions to provide immediate reinforcement as someone was mounting a fierce attack.

Not daring to be careless, they quickly gathered their people and rushed towards the direction of the main road.

The last man, somewhat unwilling, then swept a submachine gun through the unchecked bushes before following them.

“These damn bastards, so careful,” Han Feng said angrily, noticing that Xiang Yu had been shot in the left arm, but Xiang Yu didn’t make a sound.

“Let’s go.” Han Feng saw that the group had moved far away, then prepared to go down the mountain.

“Wait, let’s follow them and see,” Xiang Yu managed to stand up and followed the group.

Han Feng was speechless again.

Xiang Yu was already in such a state, yet still curious to check out the action, which was like courting death.

It would be enough to have a lucky escape from death without having to challenge their guns.

But Xiang Yu was very determined, and Han Feng had no choice but to reluctantly follow behind.

It was fortunate that the opponents didn’t have a tracking dog; otherwise, Xiang Yu’s trail of blood would quickly give them away.

Xiang Yu followed the path the others had taken all the way to the direction of the main road, where he could hear the sounds of gunfire being very intense, as if many people were engaging in battle.

Fortunately, they were in the mountains and wouldn’t be detected, which would have caused a disturbance if they were outside.

Xiang Yu and Han Feng cautiously followed, eventually arriving at the center of the firefight.

From a distance, they could barely make out some people; they were well concealed and coordinated well with each other.

Some provided cover while others charged forward, then they progressively pushed ahead, clearly showing that they were professionally trained.

However, the enemy outnumbered them and held the high ground with geographical advantages.

No matter how formidable they were, their advancement was slow.

Furthermore, the enemy’s numbers were increasing.

If they continued to push forward, they might end up isolated and encircled.

Just then, a tall figure in the distance launched a rocket from a launcher towards the high ground.

The rocket exploded, sending sparks flying everywhere.

The explosion occurred not far from Xiang Yu, who barely missed being affected by it.

“It really is them,” Xiang Yu said with a reluctant smile.

“Such a waste, the rocket launcher is so inaccurate.

Why shoot all over the place?” Han Feng said regretfully.

Clearly, the rocket had missed its target and almost hit them.

“Let’s go,” Xiang Yu said, and then made a detour down the mountain.

Han Feng didn’t know what Xiang Yu was planning, but seeing his confident demeanor, he followed along.

Barely reaching the attackers, Xiang Yu then called out, “Zhuzi, I’m here!”

Although Xiang Yu’s call was not loud, it surprisingly had a great effect.

The gunfire suddenly stopped, and several figures quickly ran towards them, with one tall figure most noticeable.

“Brother Yu,” it was Tie Zhuzi.

His eyes were red, and he almost cried when he saw Xiang Yu.

Shi Jian and Long Zaitian also rushed over.

Seeing that Xiang Yu was not in mortal danger, they were relieved, but the sight of the wounds on Xiang Yu’s body was quite shocking.

“These damn bastards, I’m going to kill them all,” Tie Zhuzi said with a mix of excitement and sorrow, seeing Xiang Yu’s pale face, torn clothes, and the blood still flowing from his body.

After saying this, Tie Zhuzi hugged his rifle and was about to rush forward, but Shi Jian quickly held him back.

“Zhuzi, don’t act rashly, we need to retreat right now,” Xiang Yu suddenly said.

Xiang Yu could see the current situation; if they didn’t retreat quickly, everyone present might be in danger.

“I’ll cover you; hurry and get out,” Shi Jian also said urgently.

Xiang Yu nodded and responded, “Don’t engage in battle,” and then, with Tie Zhuzi’s help, began walking down the mountain.

“Brother Yu, where is Wu Jing?” At that moment, Xiao Xuan suddenly popped out from behind some bushes, holding a sniper rifle.

“The two guys you mentioned, I’ve already taken them down the mountain, don’t worry,” Han Feng said.

It was then that Han Feng truly understood the words Xiang Yu had spoken in prison.

Those willing to lay down their lives for their brothers were not few in number.

Indeed, a group of loyal brothers had gathered around Xiang Yu, who had come to rescue him despite knowing they were not a match for the enemy.

This touched Han Feng deeply.

Han Feng was someone who valued brotherhood more than his own life; otherwise, he wouldn’t have caused such trouble in his pursuit of avenging a comrade, leading to his current state where he had no place to hide and was constantly in danger.

Learning that Wu Jing and Zhong Qin’s father were safe, they finally felt relieved.

They didn’t know Han Feng, but since he was with Xiang Yu, he shouldn’t be an enemy…
