When the second support army arrived and made their position clear, both Xiao Huaishuo and Li Hu already understood that the outcome had been decided.

Sure enough, Li Hu's army failed to push Xiao Huaishuo one step further.

The army, which had been unstoppably crushed like a boulder rolling down a moment ago, collapsed almost instantaneously like a boulder, and the scattered team was quickly overwhelmed and annihilated by the enemy from three sides.

The general trend has gone, and this time Li Hu did not fight.

He quickly left his army behind and fled in a hurry with his elite cronies.

The army led by Ruyi was the closest, and he was the first to chase after him. It's a pity that it's a step too slow - Li Hu prepared the ferry by the river in advance, and when Ruyi chased after him, he had already boarded the boat and went offshore.

Li Dui followed Ruyi's side, ready to fly.

The river water is vast and the soup is far away from the sky. There was a lonely boat on the river, Li Hu was standing on the deck, seeing Ruyi chasing from afar, he only felt angry and ruined, and shouted, "You are not Xiao Huaishuo's subordinate, but you are playing the Xiao Ziqi - could it be the royal family of the clan?" ”

- He didn't recognize Ruyi.

And the Jiangbian Li Dui Zhang Gong is full, ready to go, just waiting for Ruyi to give the order.

Ruyi didn't know what it was like in her heart - this man was her biological father, and even if she had decided to break off with him, it would be difficult for her to order him to be killed herself.

Li Hu saw that she was silent, and only thought that she was acquiescing, so he laughed and said, "Stupid, stupid!" You help Xiao Huaishuo achieve great things today, and he will die at Xiao Huaishuo's hands one day. Today I am his mortal enemy, and tomorrow it will be your turn to be brothers and princesses! ”

His words reminded Ruyi of Vimolai, who was still trapped in Jiankang City.

Once Li Hu escapes back to Jiankang again, Vimo will definitely be taken hostage again. At that time, there was really no way to have both of them between Vimo and Xiao Huaishuo.

She finally gave an order to Li Dui, "...... Kill him. ”

The arrow rang off the string, and Ruyi's mind buzzed with the bowstring. She subconsciously closed her eyes, but before she lost her vision, she clearly saw Li Hu fall in response.

- The arrow hit.

There was a brief blank in Ruyi's mind.

She struggled to maintain her composure, but listened to Gu Jinglou, "I didn't shoot the key point - he cheated to death." ”

Ruyi subconsciously looked at Li Dui, Li Dui nodded, and said, "Jiang Shui shook his eyes and failed to aim." Only hit the shoulder. ”

Zhao Dayan hurriedly urged, "I haven't gone far yet, hurry up and make up for an arrow." ”

Li Dui put away his bow and said, "After a day of traveling, I have no strength for a long time, and it will be the same if I shoot a few arrows." ”

Zhao Dayan hated it so much, but he knew that he couldn't force him, so he could only grit his teeth and lead people to chase along the river.

Ruyi didn't say anything.

She lowered her eyes, hiding the love in her heart.

Li Dui raised his hand and pressed the top of her head, and said, "Second Highness must have meant the same thing, otherwise he would have chased after him long ago - go back quickly, you sisters and brothers haven't seen each other for a long time." ”

Ruyi nodded silently, turned and got on his horse and left.

Gu Jinglou looked at his back and asked casually, "Are the rumors true?" She's Li Hu's pro-—"

Li Dui glanced at him and said, "How are you doing?" ”

Gu Jinglou didn't expect that the person next to Ruyi didn't take this secret seriously, and muttered, "It's not how ......" hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm just thinking, it's quite boring for people to live to her steps." ”

Li Dui couldn't help but pause and said, "...... How so? ”

Gu Jinglou said, "Do you think it's necessary for her to go to the battlefield in person?" He asked himself, "Not only is it unnecessary, but she actually resists from the bottom of her heart." Even if she wins the battle, what she thinks about is to kill. After so many battles, her mentality is already in danger, as long as there is a slight push - such as today, she will collapse at any time. But she was obviously reluctant in every way, but she still had to go to the battlefield to fight in person, and she must personally order Li Hu to be killed. Why do you think so? ”

Li Dui was silent.

Gu Jinglou shook his head and sighed, "Because 'should'." The world is in turmoil, and I can't be alone, so I have to go to the battlefield. Li Hu is a big sinner in the world, and letting him go will be ruined, so I want to kill him. As if to convince someone, he sighed, "For the sake of these morals, you can rebel against your own heart, and you can kill your own blood relatives...... Don't you think this kind of person is a little scary? ”

Li Dui glanced at the sail on the river from a distance, and said lightly, "If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell." Courage and diligence are also Buddha nature. ”

He turned the horse's head casually and said calmly, "What's more, Gu Gongzi, you don't need to worry about it at all. We are less in charge of people and things, and basically you will not be implicated. ”

"Huh?" Gu Jinglou was stunned for a moment, and he had already turned his horse and wrapped it up, "What did you say...... I, I have a love for her anyway. We're also a friend who has drunk wine, don't ......."

By the time Ruyi returned, the war was almost over.

There are tens of thousands of corpses in the Shilipo area, and the mountains are all over the wilderness. The team that clears the battlefield is looking for survivors and distinguishing the corpses.

The army continued to march and went out of the ten-mile slope before setting up camp.

Ruyi also summoned the congregation and went to join Xiao Huaishuo.

She set out from Hejiazhuang that day, recovered the fallen county along the way, and also contained and gathered soldiers, and when she arrived in Xuancheng, there were tens of thousands.

The news of Kong Cai's death had already reached Xuancheng. After two days of siege, the rebels stationed in the city abandoned the city and fled.

Ruyi took advantage of the situation to recover the surrounding cities, and halfway through the battle, the news that Xu Yi sent troops to attack Jiankang came. Ruyi realized that the time for Xiao Huaishuo and Li Hu to fight a decisive battle was also coming, so he selected 5,000 elite soldiers to come to meet Xiao Huaishuo.

Early this morning, she found out about the movements of Li Hu and Xiao Huaishuo, and urgently went to Shilipo to help.

The road was too hurried, and when they reached Shilipo, they could still keep up and not fall behind, and there were only more than 3,000 people left.

But these 3,000 people eventually became the key to reversing the situation.

After explaining the situation to the generals in the camp, the only doubts in the generals' hearts disappeared.

In this battle, Li Hu's main force was wiped out, and the situation was decided. Even if Li Hu was lucky, everyone would be relieved for a long time.

Xiao Huaishuo instructed the army, and the generals returned to the camp to prepare. In this handsome camp, only their two sisters and brothers were left for a while.

The excitement of victory had not yet dissipated, and they did not feel a long time away. Just as usual, they briskly communicated their respective situations after parting.

- Ruyi said more, of course.

Xiao Huaishuo only stared at her, smiling quietly and listening to Ruyi's homely words, laying out what he had just said in front of everyone again.

only commented at the end, "When Sister suddenly appeared, I thought it was a divine soldier descending from heaven." ”

Ruyi felt very useful, "I actually sent you a letter before I came, but I'm afraid I left faster than the letter—didn't you think you were clever enough to expect me to come?" ”

Xiao Huaishuo's eyes were soft, and only her figure was reflected in them. The slight heat of his tired body after the battle made his mind a little intoxicated, but it felt just right. Seeing Ruyi at this time is like being in a dream. He only smiled lightly and said, "It's not that I can't think of ...... at all."

“……”

"But no matter how you think about it, I think you'll help Xu Yi first."

Ruyi's face couldn't help but flush, but he still retorted seriously, "Of course I will help you first." The cousin ......, "Although Xuancheng is far and near from Jiankang and Gu, it seems to be far and near." But Xu Yi took the initiative and advanced and retreated independently. What's more, the main force of the rebels was pulled by Li Hu to confront Xiao Huaishuo, and there was no strong enemy in Jiankang City. Naturally, Xiao Huaishuo's side is more worrying.

Before she finished speaking, she was already embraced by Xiao Huaishuo.

Xiao Huaishuo knew very well what he was doing.

People have to go through life and death before they understand what they really want.

On the ten-mile slope, at the most critical moment, he also thought about death for a while, thinking that this was his limit? At that moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but in the end, the only thing that precipitated in his mind was this one-"I haven't told her anything".

He likes Ruyi. And none of them have to feel betrayal and guilt for it, because her background itself is a big scam, and there is no barrier between them at all. But he was going to die, and she knew nothing about it. A year or more after his death, she would be relieved from the grief of losing her brother. She will happily marry Xu Yi and have several children. At first, she probably remembered to sacrifice him, but as she got older, more and more people around her. He, the dead man, will occupy less and less weight in her heart, and will eventually be completely forgotten in the corner......

How can people be willing?

Xiao Huaishuo pressed her in his arms.

It's a strange softness, but it's reassuring. Even her flustered and angry struggles and bluffing scoldings could make him feel happy. It is so easy to indulge and easy to please a man after coming back alive from the battlefield and being relieved from the pressure of giving his life at any time for months.

"Let me hold you for a while......," he whispered, "I thought I would never see you again." ”

Ruyi's resistance was disintegrated so lightly.

The hands that had been pushing away with great force relaxed, and after a moment's pause, they lifted up and gently patted his back.

Ruyi's voice was warm, like when she was a child and coaxed him to sleep in the thunder, with her unique gentleness of wanting to support a qiē, "It's okay......"

Xiao Huaishuo laughed softly, and the laughter echoed muffled in his chest, with obvious pleasure.

So Ruyi became annoyed again, "Let it go." Such a big person, and still learn to be coaxed by children, are you ashamed? ”

Xiao Huaishuo couldn't help but wonder if she knew what he was thinking at the moment...... I don't know if she's going to be shy or if she's going to ......

The heat of the body is already a little uncontrollable.

It was still Ruyi's hunger in his stomach that interrupted his reverie slightly.

He let go of his hand, pinched her cheek one last time, and said, "Go get something to eat, I'm going to rest too." ”

Ruyi subconsciously dodged backwards, vaguely feeling that his behavior today was dangerous and irresistible.

Xiao Huaishuo didn't explain anything, just watched her turn around with a smile on his face.

Only when she was about to walk out of the tent, she suddenly stopped her uneasily, "The camp rules are strict, don't move around." ”

Ruyi glanced at him puzzled, "Yes." ”
