Unparalleled Concubine

After Yu Wenzhao left, Li Xin also left this hut and returned to his camp. To Li Xin's expectation, he didn't meet the assassin sent by Yu Wenzhao along the way, which surprised him a bit.

After successfully returning to the camp, Li Xin called Ye Mao. Knowing that his subordinates were ready to break through, he hesitated for a while and said, "Just wait another day."

"Break out tomorrow night."

At this time, Yu Wenzhao's troops were already chasing after him. One more day of waiting was a risk of one more day, but a forced breakout would inevitably lead to heavy casualties. Now that we knew that Yu Wentao had successfully become the new head of the Helan tribe, it was worth waiting another day.

Ye Mao also understood what Li Xin was thinking, he didn't say much, just nodded and said, "Got it."

It was already afternoon. After giving this order, Li Xin did not go back to the tent. He found a cotton coat and put it on himself. Then he found a big rock on a high slope near the tent. He sat down on it, occasionally took out the telescope from his arms, and looked in the direction of Helan.

For the next few hours, Li Xin sat here until late at night.

At this moment, it was the first month of the sixth year of Yuanzhao, and it was cold in the north, and at night, the cold wind howled, so Li Xin sat here with the cold wind in the north, watching in the direction of Helan.

Around Xu time, Ye Mao, who was still in armor, sat next to Li Xin. He looked up at Li Xin, who was already looking a bit unsightly, and stretched out his hand to pass a piece of hot pancake.

"Uncle Master is afraid of the cold, go back and have a rest, I ordered someone to light a brazier in Uncle Master's camp."

At this moment their position has been exposed, so there is no need to be afraid of lighting a fire to expose the target. Since yesterday, there will be hot food to eat.

Li Xin took the piece of cake, put it in his mouth and gnawed a few mouthfuls, he felt a little better when he got the heat, but he still trembled slightly when he spoke because of the cold.

"Wait here for one more day, and they will lose a bit of life. This decision was made by me, and I won't be able to sleep when I go back."

At this moment, waiting here is an extremely risky behavior. At this time, they break through the defense line of Qigui's department at night, and they only have to face Qigui's department. Ten deaths and no life.

Li Xin has been leading troops since he was sixteen or seventeen years old, and he followed Ye Ming when he was less than 20 years old. He has seen tens of thousands of dead people with his own eyes in these years, and his mind is already very strong, but he made such a decision , the pressure in his heart was still enormous.

Ye Mao said softly: "Didn't Uncle Master say that these people belong to the court, even if they are all dead, can the two of us escape?"

Li Xin swallowed a piece of cake in two gulps, then looked in the direction of the Helan Ministry with the binoculars, and sighed slightly: "The people of the imperial army are also human lives. If they can survive, I will definitely not let them die."

Ye Mao looked at Li Xin again, and then sighed softly: "My grandfather taught me since I was a child that kindness does not lead soldiers. It is hard to imagine that a compassionate personality like you, uncle, is actually a great general with great military exploits."

"I'm not very suitable for leading soldiers."

Li Xin turned his head to look at Ye Mao, and said slowly: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. In the early years, I was a captain in Habayashi Guard and worked under your fourth uncle. I was ordered to escort a batch of supplies to Yunzhou City. I met you in Xiaochenji Xianbei barbarians, at that time we had 400 people in a school battalion, and there were more than 600 barbarians."

"The Xiaowei Battalion I brought together with the soldiers of Xiao Chen Jifengsui killed all these more than 600 barbarians."

Speaking of this, Li Xin closed his eyes tiredly, and said with emotion: "That battle was the first time in my life that I killed someone on the battlefield, and it is still vivid in my mind, as if it was yesterday."

"In the first battle of Xiao Chenji, 39 middle brothers died in the captain's battalion I led."

Speaking of this, Li Xin laughed at himself: "To this day, I still often think of this incident. Sometimes when I close my eyes, I see more than 30 corpses in front of me."

Li Xin was only 17 years old at the time, and the battle of Xiao Chen Ji was the first time he killed people with a knife on the battlefield, and the arrangement behind the battle of Xiao Chen Ji also made him deeply feel the rules of this world.

This incident had a great impact on his three views, and he still remembers it clearly after more than ten years.

"I heard about it from my father."

Ye Mao got up, found some dead grass nearby, picked up some straw, and lit it in front of Li Xin, which drove Li Xin a little cold. He said while picking dead branches nearby, "Father said, little After the battle of Chen Ji, more than 30 people were killed by the uncle's men, and for more than ten years, the uncle has been supporting the families of these people, and will send things there every year and festival."

Li Xin narrowed his eyes and didn't say much. He threw a few dead branches under his feet into the fire in front of him, then habitually took out the binoculars and looked in the direction of Helan.

It was almost midnight at this moment, and the surrounding area was completely silent, but in the direction of Helan Department, there seemed to be a few light spots beating faintly.

Li Xin stood up immediately. He held up the binoculars, and after looking at it several times, he turned his head to look at Ye Mao, and said slowly, "There seems to be someone from the Helan Department."

Although his tone was calm, he could still hear some vibrato, and he didn't know if it was because the weather was too cold or because he was too emotional.

Ye Mao immediately took out his binoculars and looked in the direction of the Helan Department. The flames in the distance were getting closer, and it could already be seen that they were some torches jumping up and down.

Ye Mao's expression was brightened, and he immediately turned to Li Xin and said, "Master, it is true that people from the Helan Department have come. It seems that there should be more than ten riders, and they will probably arrive at our place soon."

After seeing people coming, Li Xin, who was still waiting here just now, suddenly became less anxious. He stood up from the side of the fire, stretched his waist, and said calmly: "Since there are people coming over there, I don’t need to guard here anymore, you take a few people to meet them, and I will go back to the tent to sleep for a while.”

As he said that, General Li yawned big, rubbed his waist again, and said lazily: "I stayed here all night, I was trapped to death."

After saying this, he walked away.

Ye Mao looked at the back of Li Xin rubbing his waist and walking away, and shook his head helplessly.

Suddenly, he remembered something, and said loudly to Li Xin's back: "Uncle, what is our attitude towards the Helan Department?"

At this time, Li Xin hadn't gone far, he stretched again, yawned and said.

"If it's an envoy from the Helan tribe, you can ask them to send troops from the Helan tribe to protect us."

"If Yu Wentao comes in person, you can bring him to see me."

Chapter 1019 I Have To Believe

The people from the Helan tribe were greeted by Ye Mao. Li Xin stayed in his handsome tent and waited. He heard Ye Mao's voice in a daze, and he opened his eyes.

"Uncle, Yu Wentao, the patriarch of the Helan tribe, is waiting outside to rest."

Li Xin rubbed his eyes, nodded and said, "Let him in."

Ye Mao nodded, and called Yu Wentao in after he went out. At this time, it had been almost ten days since Li Xin saw him at the Heroma Field last time. Already wearing a purple robe, he lowered his head and cupped his fists towards Li Xin: "I have seen General Li."

Li Xin got up and said with a smile: "You are welcome, Patriarch Yuwen, how is the situation of the Helan tribe?"

"It's already under my control."

Yu Wentao didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "I'm here to pick up my sister, please make it easier for the general."

"Of course there's no problem with that."

Li Xin smiled and said: "As long as Patriarch Yuwen is willing to send us to the vicinity of Yunzhou City, Lingmei will definitely send it back intact. Besides, I can also find an errand for Patriarch Yuwen in the Jin court. , to provide some convenience for the Helan tribe, so that the Helan tribe has enough strength to fight against the Xianbei king's tent."

The premise of Yu Wentao's ascension is to turn against Wang Zhang, that is to say, at least in a short period of time, he must stand on the opposite side of Wang Zhang, and the more important reason is that he has personally seen Li Xin hand it over to Wang Zhang. How powerful is his sky thunder...

In addition, his sister is still in Li Xin's hands. He came to Li Xin in person today just to discuss cooperation with Li Xin.

Yu Wentao bowed his head and said: "General, don't worry, I have already sent someone to communicate with the Qigui Department. This time, the Qigui Department followed Wang Zhang's southern expedition and lost a lot of troops. They themselves are relatively weak. My Helan Department came forward Negotiations, they will not lose face, and by tomorrow at most the day after tomorrow, they should make way for the general to return to the pass."

"Tomorrow at the latest."

Li Xin was expressionless: "Yu Wenzhao is right behind me, I can't wait that long."

"The people of the king's tent, the Helan department will also help to stop them. The general has helped Xiatian greatly. The Helan department has always been grateful and will not ignore the general."

Yu Wentao's attitude was sincere. After discussing some specific details with Li Xin, he glanced at Li Xin cautiously, and said: "General, after the Helan Ministry helps the General, there will definitely be conflicts with the king's account. , the Wang Tent has nearly 50 people, and the Helan tribe is not the opponent of the Wang Tent, what advice does the General have?"

"Yu Wenzhao doesn't have too many people available now."
