Li Xin cannot guarantee whether the young patriarch of the Helan tribe will succeed. After all, Yuwen Jie, the patriarch of the Helan tribe, has been in charge of the Helan tribe for more than a year. After Yuwen Tao returned to the Helan tribe, he only had one chance. If he could not kill Yuwen Jie directly, it would be equivalent to going to die.

However, even if Yuwen Tao failed, Li Xin did not suffer much loss, because Yuwen Tao would bring back the news that the people in the tent attacked the Heroma Field. Regardless of whether he succeeded or not, the Helan tribe would have a gap with the tent before the tent.

If he succeeds, it would be better.

Yuwen Jie was supported by Yuwen Zhao as the leader of the clan. If Yuwen Tao wanted to completely overthrow his uncle's rule, he would overthrow all his decisions. The Helan tribe would not only break away from Yuwen Zhao's control, but would even turn against Yuwen Zhao into enemies.

After Yuwen Tao left the Hero Horse Farm, it was almost dawn. After Li Xin and others took away a large number of horses from the horse farm, they also took Yuwen Tao's girl Yu Wenjing to leave the horse farm.

Yu Wenjing is still a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old. Because her father is the patriarch, she has never suffered any hardship since she was a child. Her face is not as red as most Xianbei people, and her slightly red looks white.

Li Xin has no intention of paying attention to such a girl now. After returning to the tent, he asked Xie Dai to help watch him. He and Ye Mao sat in their handsome tent to discuss matters.

At this time, in order not to expose itself, Li Xin's troops still dared not make fire. Li Xin and Ye Mao also ate the dry food brought from Yunzhou. Li Xin held a handful of fried rice and stuffed it into his mouth, frowned and swallowed it, and said, "From the Qigui tribe to the Helan tribe, there are more than a thousand casualties. The Helan tribe is no better than the Qigui tribe, so you can't confront them head-on."

Ye Mao also ate a big bite of dry food and asked Li Xin: "Uncle Master, how many things do you have?"

Li Xin took a sip of water and said, "There are still many, if not enough, you can get Shen Gang a little more, but we can't pay too much attention to this. This thing is not as powerful as you imagine."

For a long time, outsiders, including Emperor Yuan Zhao, have imagined the heavenly thunder as magical. It seems that with heavenly thunder, they can be invincible. As the inventor of this thing, Li Xin knows better than anyone else that this thing is not too powerful.

Gunpowder is just the basis of the hot weapon era. Its power lies in the countless derivatives in later generations. It is not particularly powerful. The so-called "sky thunder" created by Li Xin now is largely due to the pottery fragments produced by the explosion, not the gunpowder itself.

In another world, gunpowder appeared since the Tang Dynasty, and in the Song Dynasty, it was equipped with large-scale troops. With firearms such as the storm and the pear blossom gun, in the Ming Dynasty, there was a Shenji camp that specifically used firearms, and there were muskets and cannons.

Li Xin has only made the most basic thing like gunpowder, and he has not made a musket yet. In terms of power alone, the so-called "sky thunder" is not even as powerful as the power of the firearms in the Song Dynasty, and is much inferior to the Shenji Camp of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Li Xin has been using heavenly thunder ingeniously over the years. He has never used this thing on a large scale on the front. In order to exaggerate the effect of heavenly thunder, he himself made a huge heavenly thunder to scare the current emperor Yuan Zhao.

It is precisely because people in this era have never seen what a firearm looks like that they have great fear of such unknown things.

To be honest, the biggest function of this thing is to be unexpected and disrupt the enemy's battle formation. Moreover, it will have some miraculous effects when defending the city. When it is really used elsewhere, it can only look at how to use it and when it is used.

Ye Mao and Li Xin discussed how to move next, and asked, "Uncle Master, do you think Yuwen Tao will succeed?"

"There's probably a 40% or 50% chance."

Li Xin narrowed his eyes and said, "If he could use Tianlei to directly blow Yuwen Jie to death or seriously injured, then there would be 70% or 80% chance. If it was not done, he would have to die in the Horan tribe."

Speaking of this, Marquis Jing'an smiled: "If he died in the Helan tribe, his girl would be given to you for care. Anyway, you are only a woman and have never taken a concubine. You will take a woman to spread the incense for Master Ye."

Ye Mao shook his head with a wry smile: "Don't joke, uncle, the Zhenbei Army can be said to no longer exist now, and the court repeatedly doubted the Ye family. This time I returned from the northern border. Whether the Duke Chen's mansion can be preserved is a question. How can we spread the branches and leaves?"

Speaking of this, Ye Mao first looked around and confirmed that there was no one around, then looked up at Li Xin and asked carefully: "Uncle Master, what are you going to do next after the incident in the Northern Xinjiang?"

"The court can no longer tolerate me."

Li Xin said lightly: "Not only can't tolerate me, but even the Ye family may not be able to withstand me. My family is not bad. My family is all in the southwest, and in the end, it will be at most back to the southwest to be my southwest emperor. But Master Ye's lifelong efforts cannot be ruined in the Yuan Zhao Dynasty."

Ye Mao's voice was a little bitter.

"Before coming, the Ye family members were taken from Ningling by the court to the capital."

Li Xin held another handful of fried rice, frowned and threw it into his mouth, and then slowly said: "This emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty is too hard to grasp the measure. Now you and my family want to survive. Either you and my family leave your wife and children and go to the southwest with me. From now on, you and my family will take root in the southwest, slowly aiming for the future..."

"Or, I can only change to another emperor."

Ye Mao was shocked when he heard this, his heart beat suddenly faster. After taking a deep breath, he looked up at Li Xin: "Does Uncle Master want to... support another Ji family as the emperor?"

Li Xin smiled coldly: "If another Ji family member is the emperor, no matter how obedient he is, the situation today will still reappear in more than ten or twenty years. If you want to change it, you have to change it and you have to change it to your own person as the emperor."

Ye Mao's heart moved slightly.

His sister married the late emperor and was named Concubine De. She gave birth to a son for the late emperor. She is the fourth brother who is today and is almost ten years old this year...

Ye Mao was stunned for a while, then remembered something, frowned and said, "Uncle Master, the Fourth Prince may not be able to do it. Even if Uncle Master praised him to the throne, his surname is Ji, and he will not be in the same way as us when he grows up."

Li Xin sat down again, held the fried rice and stuffed it into his mouth. Once again, he frowned slightly because the food was so unpalatable.

"This is not a place to talk. After returning to the pass, let's talk in detail."

……………………

Just as Li Xin and Ye Mao discussed the future, Yu Wentao, who was covered in blood, had already returned to the Helan tribe. He entered the tent of the largest tribe leader of the Helan tribe, half-kneeled in front of his uncle, and his voice was hoarse: "Uncle, the Hero Ma Field was attacked, all the horses in the horse field were stolen, and his nephew fought desperately with the robbers and almost killed them..."

Yuwen Jie, who was sitting in the position of the patriarch, frowned and looked at his eldest nephew who was kneeling in front of him, and slowly said: "Before you, many people had already escaped from the Heroma Farm. They said that a group of people attacked the Heroma Farm, but they had not yet figured out who it was."

"Back to Uncle."

Yuwen Tao had several wounds on his body, covered in blood. He barely knelt on the ground and said, "My nephew heard the conversation between those robbers. It should be people from the tent... They said that the king was short of horses on the front line, so he asked them to take some horses back to Jizhou from my Helan tribe..."

“This is impossible.”

Yuwen Jie suddenly stood up, walked to Yuwen Tao with great strides, looked at his nephew coldly, and said coldly: "Wang Tianwang Yuwen has an alliance with my Helan tribe and vows to never invade. How can he attack our tribe's horse farm?"

“It’s true.”

Yuwen Tao took out a pottery pot from the bag behind him and put it in Yuwen Jie's hand. He lowered his head and said, "This is what my nephew found in the Heroma Field. Everyone in the tent has this thing in his hand. It is extremely powerful. In just a moment, he attacked the Heroma Field and killed many warriors of our Helan tribe."

Yuwen Jie held the thing in his hand, frowned and looked at it: "What is this, how to use it?"

Li Xin had the news of the thunder in his hand, which had already spread to the northern border, but there were people in the Yuwen tribe, including the Heavenly King Yuwen Zhao, who had never seen the legendary thunder with his own eyes, and Yuwen Jie naturally had never seen it either.

Yu Wentao lowered his head and said, "My nephew looked at the people in the tent. It seemed that after igniting it with fire in his hand, throwing it out after ten breaths, it would have the power of opening mountains and cracking stones."
