Chapter 67: I Have to Believe
The people of the Helan Department, it was Ye Mao who led people out to greet him, Li Xin stayed in his handsome tent and waited, he was already very sleepy at this time, after returning to his camp, he crooked on the bed and squinted for a while, and when he heard Ye Mao's voice in a daze, he opened his eyes.
"Uncle Shi, Yu Wentao, the patriarch of the Helan tribe, is waiting outside."
Li Xin rubbed his eyes, nodded and said, "Let him in." ”
Ye Mao nodded, and after going out, he called Yuwentao in, at this time, it had been almost ten days since Li Xin last saw him in the Roman field, Yuwentao no longer looked embarrassed at that time, he was already wearing a purple robe at this time, and he bowed his head and hugged his fists at Li Xin: "I've seen General Li." ”
Li Xin got up and said with a smile: "Patriarch Yuwen is polite, how is the situation in the Helan Department now?" ”
"It's already under my control."
Yu Wentao didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "I'm here to take my sister back, please make it convenient for the general." ”
"Naturally, there's no problem with that."
Li Xin smiled and said: "As long as the Yuwen Patriarch is willing to send us to the vicinity of Yunzhou City, Ling Mei will definitely send it back intact, in addition, Ben Jiang can also find an errand for the Yuwen Patriarch in the Great Jin Imperial Court, and provide some convenience for the Helan Ministry, so that the Helan Ministry has enough strength to fight against the Xianbei King Tent." ”
The premise of Yu Wentao's ascension to the throne is to turn his face with the king's tent, that is to say, at least in a short period of time, he must stand on the opposite side of the king's tent, and the more important reason is that he has seen with his own eyes how powerful the heavenly thunder handed to him by Li Xin is......
In addition, his sister-in-law is still in Li Xin's hands, and he came to Li Xin in person today just to talk about cooperation with Li Xin.
Yu Wentao bowed his head and said: "The general can rest assured, he has already sent someone to communicate with the Qigui Department, the Qigui Department followed the Wang Tent to the south this time, and injured a lot of troops, and they themselves are relatively weak, my Helan Department came forward to negotiate, they will not give face, and by tomorrow at most the day after tomorrow, they should get out of the way and enlarge the general to return to the Guannei." ”
"Tomorrow at the latest."
Li Xin's face was expressionless: "Yuwen Zhao is behind me, I can't wait that long." ”
"The people of the king's tent, the Helan Ministry will also help stop it, the general has helped the next day, the Helan Department has always been gracious, and will not ignore the general."
Yu Wentao's attitude was sincere, and after discussing some specific details with Li Xin, he glanced at Li Xin cautiously, and said: "General, after the Helan Department helps the general, there will definitely be a conflict with the king's tent, the king's tent has nearly 500,000 people, and the Helan tribe is not the opponent of the king's tent, what advice does the general have?" ”
"Yuwen Zhao doesn't have too many people available now."
Li Xin said quietly: "They beat the Jimen Pass, too many young people died, the next batch of children grow up, it is estimated that it will take four or five years to complete, four or five years, the Jimen Pass has returned to the hands of my Great Jin, and when the time comes, the policy of the Great Jin Frontier will be biased towards the Helan Department." ”
"I can't guarantee anything else, I can guarantee that the Helan Department will never go without food."
Li Xin is the Taifu of the Great Jin Dynasty and the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, what he said naturally counts, Yuwen Tao did not doubt it, and immediately bowed his head and said: "In this way, the Helan Department must do its best to help the general, and the net worth and life of the 300,000 people in the Helan Department will be entrusted to the general!" ”
In fact, most of the words Li Xin said were empty checks, and they were not counted.
If it was the Taikang Dynasty, he was still a favorite of the imperial court, and there was no problem with giving the emperor some reasonable advice, but now it is the Yuan Zhao Dynasty, and he is nominally the Taifu, but in fact he has been separated from the imperial court.
Unless he, Li Chang'an, personally controls the government of the court, it will not affect the decision-making of any court.
The news in the north is blocked, even Yuwen Zhao doesn't know what is going on in the Great Jin court, and Yuwen Tao is naturally even more unclear, after getting Li Xin's promise, the young Helan clan patriarch is naturally very happy.
The Northern Zhou Dynasty has been destroyed for more than 40 years, and two generations have passed now, and descendants like Yu Wentao no longer existed when they were born, and they have no intention of recovering the country, and they just want to live a good life.
If you can get the support of the Southern Dynasty, you will definitely be able to live a good life.
Yu Wentao's spirits were greatly lifted, and he arched his hand to Li Xin and said: "General, I will personally take people to the Qigui Department now, at the latest tomorrow at noon, you can leave for Yunzhou City, if the Qigui Department does not give way at noon tomorrow, my Helan Department will tear a way home for the general!" ”
Li Xin was overjoyed, but he said quietly on his face: "In this way, thank you to Patriarch Yuwen." ”
"Yuwen Zhao was named the Yan King of my Great Jin, but he went against the grain and raised troops to rebel, after this matter, it will not be tolerated by the imperial court, and the imperial court will not have any tolerance for the Xianbei King in the future, the Yuwen patriarch took the position of the patriarch at a young age, and after I returned to Beijing, I said a few good words in front of His Majesty, and the Yuwen patriarch will be the new king of Yan in the north."
Yu Wentao nodded again and again: "There is General Lao to bother!" ”
After saying this, he lowered his head and clenched his fists, said goodbye to Li Xin, and then got on his horse and personally rushed in the direction of the Qigui Department.
Ye Mao sent him to the door of the camp tent, and then went back to Li Xin's handsome tent, and saw that his uncle had set up a shelf and was roasting steamed buns that had hardened.
Ye Mao sat opposite Li Xin and said with emotion: "Uncle Shi's mouth is really powerful, this Yuwen Tao said three or two sentences, and he was fooled by Uncle Shi and couldn't find the north." ”
"It's not that I'm good."
Li Xin put one of the roasted browned steamed buns in Ye Mao's hand, and then said lightly: "It's that he has no choice, his uncle Yuwen Jie, is a person from Yuwen Zhao's faction, he killed Yu Wen Jie, so he naturally has to oppose Yu Wen Zhao." ”
"Besides, Yuwen Zhao's southern expedition is not going well, and many people have died in the Heran Ministry, they will no longer be willing to follow Yuwen Zhao, Yuwen Tao can be regarded as conforming to the will of the people, and if there is no support from the Great Jin Dynasty, it will be difficult for the Helan Department to confront Yuwen Zhao head-on, so he will naturally fall to the Great Jin Court."
Speaking of this, Li Xin squinted his eyes and smiled: "Therefore, whatever I say, he will believe it, even if he doesn't believe it in his heart, he will believe it in his mouth." ”
Ye Mao nodded thoughtfully, he looked up at Li Xin, and said, "Uncle Shi, now that the Xianbei tribes are in chaos, and they can't become a climate, what are you going to do after we enter the customs?" ”
"Recruit first."
Li Xin said lightly: "After you go back, you will go to Yancheng, take the remnants of the Zhenbei Army, and recruit troops in Yancheng, the Zhenbei Army should have a establishment of 100,000, and you will recruit 100,000 soldiers, if the court does not speak, you will train in Yancheng, and when you bring out the recruits, Yuwenzhao will probably have withdrawn from Jizhou City." ”
Ye Mao smiled bitterly: "Recruiting soldiers without permission is a capital crime......
"Gathering the remnants of the Zhenbei Army, how is it a capital crime?"
Ye Mao blinked his eyes and continued to ask, "What if the imperial court doesn't give money and food......
"Then occupy Yancheng."
Mrs. Li said coldly.
"The largest city in the Northland, it can naturally afford to raise a Zhenbei army."
