Chapter 188 Traitor
"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

On the top of Luwu City, everyone was excited when they saw their companions happily finishing off and beheading the Xianbei people.

"Haha..." Lu Yi couldn't help but smile when he saw that he not only repelled Hu Tuo's first wave of attacks, but also captured at least two or three thousand heads.

"Humph!"

"waste!"

"They are all a bunch of rubbish!"

However, when Hu Tuo looked at the complacent Luwu party, he showed an angry look.

However, the morale of the Xianbei people was low, so he did not dare to send out the army rashly.

Therefore, he could only vent his resentment on the two small tribe chiefs who escaped back.

"As tribal leaders, you two failed to command properly and failed to deal with the situation properly, which led to the tragic death of 3,000 Xianbei warriors under the city of Luwu!"

A fierce light flashed in Hutuo's eyes. Since the war was not going well, he might as well take this opportunity to annex the tribes of these two small tribes.

His excuse was flawless. He pushed the responsibility of losing troops as a commander onto the two poor chiefs of the small tribes, and also left the two chiefs who were the vanguards speechless.

"These two men have lost many soldiers and generals, which has damaged the prestige of our Xianbei army. Their crimes are unforgivable!"

"Come here, suppress these two men and execute them on the spot to restore the prestige of our Xianbei army!"

Huto shouted.

"If you hadn't sent the supervision team to force us to attack, why would the two of us play with the lives of our men, and how could there be so many casualties!"

Among them, the cowardly young chief complained bitterly and hoped that Huto would take back his decision.

"Can't you see? He wants to take this opportunity to get rid of the two of us and annex our people, Hutuo! You are abusing your power for personal gain! I will report you to the Great Khan's tent!"

However, the other hot-tempered patriarch saw Huto's sinister intention and immediately pointed at his nose and started cursing.

"Hehe, I'm afraid you don't have this chance!"

Hu Tuo was not angry when his thoughts were exposed. Instead, he sneered and waved to those around him.

Upon receiving the order, the guards immediately stepped forward to subdue the two men and brought them to the entire army to be executed.

After two screams of injustice, everything returned to calm.

Huto held a bloody head in one hand, and with his absolute strength, he effortlessly annexed the tribes of the two men, and the number of soldiers directly under his command increased dramatically.

As the commander of the Xianbei army, Hutuo undoubtedly suffered a complete defeat in this battle.

As the chief of the Hutuo tribe, Hutuo greatly increased the strength of the Hutuo tribe by annexing the tribes of two smaller chiefs who died unjustly.

The number of combat-capable soldiers increased sharply to 7,000, far exceeding the number before the invasion to the south, and was considered a scale far greater than before.

However, although he annexed the two tribes, Hutto did not feel the slightest bit happy in his heart.

Originally, the Xianbei army had a size of 10,000 people, but they were still unable to capture Luwu.

Now the number of people has dropped by 30%, leaving only 7,000 people. Although these 7,000 people have become his own private soldiers, there is still no hope of capturing Luwu.

"Brother Hutuo seems to be worried about the war?"

At this time, Su Shuang saw Hu Tuo frowning, and immediately understood his thoughts, and stepped forward to ask, "This Lvwu is very solid, and the soldiers and civilians are united. I don't know how Lv Yi built this Lvwu from scratch, and how he made these Han people follow him wholeheartedly and defend Lvwu."

Huto sighed and expressed his concerns.

"Although these barbarians are good at riding and shooting, and their military orders are strict, they are just stupid and straightforward people!"

After Su Shuang showed contempt for the man in his heart, he immediately smiled and tried to persuade him.

"Brother Hu Tuo, since you can't attack by force, why don't you use wits to defeat him?"

"Oh? Could it be that Brother Su has some strategy that he can teach me to break through this city?"

Hu Tuo's eyes lit up when he heard this. He had long heard of the intelligence of the Han people. Now seeing Su Shuang so confident, he felt like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw. He quickly dismounted, held Su Shuang's hands and asked.

"I do have a plan, but whether it will succeed or not depends on God's will!"

Su Shuang was a shrewd man, so he would naturally not say anything final. He was just giving a suggestion with good intentions. This way, even if the battle was lost, the blame would still be on him.

"Brother Su, what you said is very true. If Changshengtian still has spirit, he will naturally bless his pious people to fight the war. Please teach me, Brother Su!"

Hu Tuo naturally saw through Su Shuang's plan, but now he had no way to deal with Lu Wu, so he could only choose to listen to Su Shuang's advice.

Although he didn't have any strategy, he was not a fool. If Su Shuang's plan couldn't even convince him, then there was naturally no need to execute it.

"Haha, in that case, I will tell you my humble opinion. I hope Brother Hutuo will not laugh at me!"

After Su Shuang got the promise he wanted, he said a few polite words and immediately told him the plan he had been thinking about for half a year.

“Often the strongest cities are conquered from within.”

"Lü Yi was originally the most outstanding hero in Bingzhou. Later, he married into the Zhang family of Mayi and obtained the financial support of the Zhang family. With the support of the Zhang family of Mayi, he built a caravan and started to do business outside the border. Later, his business grew bigger and bigger. Not only did he recruit many people, he also built this fortress from scratch."

"But this man is indiscriminate in rewarding and punishing, and is stingy and harsh to his subordinates. In the past six months, I have spent a lot of money and finally got a veteran general under Lu Yi. Brother Hu Tuo can work with him to defeat Luwu!"

Su Shuang revealed his plan in a few words, and Hu Tuo became more and more excited as he listened.

"What will it cost me?"

However, although Hu Tuo was excited, his mind was very sharp. Seeing that Su Shuang only briefly told him some key information and did not reveal the complete plan, he immediately understood that Su Shuang must want to use this to control him, so he asked back very cooperatively.

"Haha, Brother Hu Tuo, you are too polite. What's the point of talking about price? We have been together day and night for half a year. What's the point of talking about price?"

Su Shuang was polite at first, and then stated his real demands.

"However, Brother Hutuo, you also know that doing business requires capital. I have already contributed all of my capital to Chief Luo Hanyi, and now I am penniless."

"Therefore, if the plan goes well and Brother Hutuo successfully captures Luwu, I will need half of Luwu's wealth as spoils of war!"

"Hmm?" Hu Tuo couldn't help but frowned, stimulated by Su Shuang's good appetite.

However, thinking that he still needed Su Shuang and his traitor to help him capture Luwu, he thought that two birds in the bush were worth one bird in the hand, so he relaxed his brows again.

"Sure!" Hutto agreed immediately.

"Okay!" The Xianbei people's military orders were strict. Su Shuang was not worried at all that Hutuo would deceive him. He was immediately overjoyed when he heard this!
