Three days later, He Ruojin led his army to successfully repel the Donglin army and personally guarded Lin'an City.
The people in the city had been in fear for almost half a month, and finally they were able to breathe for a few days. They knew that now that the Sheng army was guarding Lin'an City, they would be able to quickly push the enemy back to the east.
When He Ruojin once again defeated the enemy who tried to attack, he received two letters almost on the same day.
One letter came from Sheng Ling. Sheng Ling wrote in the letter that in order to save Lin's father, Lin Banxia risked his life and fell into the hands of the Donglin people. She has not yet found Lin Banxia, but she has asked the emperor to Send reinforcements.
Sheng Ling told him that the worst outcome was that Lin Banxia had been taken into the hands of the enemy and asked him to save Lin Banxia no matter what.
The second letter came from outside the city. There was nothing written in the letter, except for a hairpin.
It's Lin Banxia's hairpin.
He Ruojin held the hairpin and stood on the city gate tower. In her ears was the sound of the bitter snowstorm, the flags roared in the wind, and the war was raging outside the city gate. The sound of the wind and snow was mixed with the harsh sound of the burning fire. Everything None of them stopped.
He Ruojin stared at a dark fire in the distance, silent for a long time, until her eyes were forced to become red and her face was covered with a thin layer of frost and snow.
Luo Yi's voice came from behind, "General, according to the original plan, we sneaked into the enemy camp late at night and completely defeated Donglin. Why don't you, General, get a good sleep and recharge your batteries?"
He Ruojin's eyes were cold and without any emotion. After a while, he said, "I can't sleep."
Luo Yi finally realized something was wrong. He walked to He Ruoxin, looked at He Ruoxin's expression, frowned and said, "Ruoxin, did something happen?"
He Ruojin said calmly: "No."
"Then let me ask again, should we proceed according to the original plan at night?" Luo Yi was afraid that he might have a problem, so she couldn't help but want to confirm with him.
And He Ruochen held the cold hairpin in her hand. After a while, she slowly and solemnly nodded her head and said, "Follow the original plan."
The sharp end of the hairpin pricked the palm of his hand, causing blood to ooze out.
One drop, two drops, dripped from the fingertips, and were covered by the wind and snow.
It's like, from beginning to end, nothing happened...
Late at night, probably around the fourth watch, a hail of torch-lit arrows and thick smoke surrounded the enemy camp. The raging wind increased the intensity of the fire and quickly engulfed the entire camp.
The Sheng army had extremely rich combat experience. They cooperated with each other to attack from a pincer, and soon surrounded the entire enemy army.
"Get the Han general!" Luo Yi ordered. The Han general he was talking about was the commander who led the Donglin expedition this time.
But almost as soon as he finished speaking, a voice came out from the crowd of enemy soldiers, "Wait a minute!"
General Han held the hostage in his hand and walked forward slowly. He held a broken sword in his hand and pressed it hard on the hostage's fair and delicate neck. If it was deeper, he could cut her lifeline.
And General Han had experienced the hostage's unreserved suicide behavior against her in the past few days. This time he was obviously wary, so he tied up the hostage's hands and feet, and blocked her mouth, not even having a chance to bite her tongue to commit suicide. will give it to her.
General Han took her not far from He Ruoxin's horse and asked with a sneer: "General He, you should recognize that this is your wife, right?"
