My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 167 A Great Fortune
However, although the patriarch in front of him was weak, he was very shrewd and did not give Hutuo an excuse to send troops.

I would rather bear the reputation of being weak and incompetent than fall into Huto's trap.

"Well, we are all neighbors, and we are all members of my Xianbei family. How can we turn against each other at the slightest provocation?"

Luo Hanyi no longer had any appetite and threw away the leg of lamb in his hand with a headache.

"Although Huto has robbed you of many of your livestock, you are also wrong to cross the border and graze on his pasture."

Luo Han first pointed at the clan leader who was making the complaint, and then without waiting for him to speak, he pointed at Hu Tuo who was standing beside him with a slightly reproachful tone.

"And Huto, you've already killed his men, why do you have to take his livestock?"

"This leader orders you to return all the livestock you have seized from other tribes!"

As the leader of the Xianbei people in this area, Luo Han also had to maintain a minimum of fairness. Otherwise, once the credibility of the Xianbei leader disappeared, the entire Xianbei would cease to exist and would fall into the same kind of melee as before.

"Oh! Thank you, chief, for standing up for me. I will never forget it!" Seeing that his main demand to get his livestock back was met, the patriarch who had filed the complaint immediately expressed his gratitude to Luo Han Yi profusely.

"But, Chief... you are speaking too late. I have already eaten half of the livestock I captured..."

Hu Tuo was very powerful, so naturally he would not be as obedient as the small tribes he bullied. He rolled his eyes and immediately smiled at Luo Han.

What he meant was that I dare not openly disobey your orders, Luo Hanyi, but don't expect me to spit out all the fat meat that I have already eaten!
"What?" The clan leader who had made the complaint was horrified and felt a little dizzy for a moment.

"You idiot!" Luo Han couldn't help but frown when he heard that.

But Huto was right in one thing.

That is, the strong are respected on the grassland.

The weak can only be bullied.

The fact that he was still willing to obey his orders and not breaking up with him was already a compromise. If Luo Han couldn't see this, he would naturally not have been able to become the leader.

"Then you should return the half of the livestock that you haven't eaten to them!"

Luo Han could only go down the stairs.

After all, it was fair for him to get back half of the livestock for the patriarch who had filed the complaint. If he insisted on forcing the Hutuo tribe to hand over all the livestock, he would inevitably offend the Hutuo tribe.

Between a medium-sized tribe and a large tribe, Luo Han knew which one was more profitable for him.

"Yes, sir! Chief!" Hutuo immediately agreed with a smile after getting the benefit.

Although he failed to take advantage of this opportunity to annex other families, being able to obtain two or three thousand livestock was still a windfall.

"Are you satisfied with my handling of the matter?" Seeing that Hu Tuo had been dealt with, Luo Han also put on a friendly look and turned to ask the patriarch who had complained.

"This..." Seeing that Luo Han had no intention of discussing the matter with him, the clan leader who had made the complaint could only swallow his bitterness and give up, even though he was dissatisfied.

"My Lord, you are wise. I am convinced!"

"The leader is wise!"

The other clan leaders in the big tent saw Luo Han looking at them again, and they all spoke loudly in unison.

"It looks like it's time to start a major war to divert internal conflicts."

But Luo Han just waved his hand lightly and began to think subconsciously in his heart.

Now contradictions and conflicts are becoming more and more serious and more and more frequent.

In the past, the Xianbei people would launch a war against other tribes, especially the Xiongnu, every winter. While winning the war and gaining resources, they would also divert internal conflicts and settle the unstable internal situation.

But now the Southern Xiongnu have been forced to the edge of the Great Wall by the Xianbei people. If they are forced further, they can only retreat into the Great Wall and rely on the Han people.

Naturally, it was impossible for the Xianbei people to make use of their value.

"It seems that invading the Great Wall and attacking Bingzhou this year has become a foregone conclusion. It seems that I need to find an opportunity to discuss this with my brother as soon as possible."

After all, the Han Dynasty was a superpower that defeated the Xiongnu. Without the assistance of the Han Dynasty, the Xianbei people would never have been able to defeat the Xiongnu and become the overlord of the grasslands on their own.

Now the Han Dynasty is only weakening, not declining, so Luo Han is also a little worried about this.

After all, this is not a local battle where you just shoot and run.

Instead, they planned to invade the Great Wall and then wage a long war to occupy Bingzhou for a long time. If the Xianbei people were stuck in the quagmire of war, they might not be able to safely extricate themselves from the Han territory.

Therefore, it can never be too cautious.

"Sir, Su Shuang has sent someone to ask to see you again."

Just when Luo Hanyi was feeling troubled, a confidant suddenly came from outside the tent and whispered in Luo Hanyi's ear.

"Why is it him again? Can't you see that this leader is getting annoyed? No! No!"

Luo Han also waved his hands impatiently.

The confidant hesitated for a moment but spoke again.

"Sir, Su Shuang has contributed all his money this time, just asking you to see him."

"And he also said that he had a great fortune to give to you!"

"Oh? Why is this old guy suddenly so generous this time?"

"And you said you have a great fortune to give me?"

The money Su Shuang brought was not small, even Luo Hanyi was drooling over it. Now Su Shuang gave up the money and used a show of great wealth to whet Luo Hanyi's appetite, making him successfully change his mind.

"In that case, you can ask him to wait in my private tent. I will go to see him after I have entertained these clan leaders."

"Yes, my lord!"

The confidant couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this. He had just received a lot of money from Su Shuang, and he would feel a little uneasy if he failed to get things done.

"My Lord, Luo Han has also agreed to see you!"

As soon as Su Shuang's loyal servant got the news, he immediately ran back to Su Shuang's tent to tell him the good news.

"That's great!" Su Shuang was also very excited when he heard it.

"Help me bathe and change clothes quickly!"

"This opportunity may be my Su's last chance, I must seize it!"

While Su was preparing quickly, he secretly made up his mind.

"Brother Zhang, I have a chance to avenge you!"

Luo Hanyi's party lasted until very late.

Su Shuang also waited in Luo Hanyi's private tent until midnight.

"Haha, Brother Su, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you used to living here?"

Luo Han also pushed open the curtain and walked into the big tent at great speed, which made Su Shuang very angry.

Where is he showing any signs of being sick?

However, since Su Shuang needed help from others, he naturally would not mindlessly point out the truth to Luo Hanyi. He just humbly saluted Luo Hanyi quickly.

"I came here because I was poor, but you took good care of me, so I live very comfortably."

"Now that you have taken the time to meet with me, I am extremely grateful!"
