There were originally two red flags hanging on the handsome boat, one with the word "Jin" in the middle; On the other side, there is embroidered "Taiwei, Chinese and foreign governors", and in the middle is the word "Liu". Liu Yu has many titles, but the one that best shows power and energy is these two hats that represent the highest military power.

After the fleet entered the Yellow River, the Xianbei people began to shoot arrows and harass, and both flags were lowered. If it was shot by the Xianbei people, or burned with rockets, wouldn't it be a great shame!

Chen Song was on the boat, and he saw the two bare flagpoles on the handsome boat from a distance, and felt very awkward. When boarding the ship, I couldn't go through the bow and stern of the ship and the north-facing hatch, so I had to climb the rope ladder and go up from the south side, which made me feel even more angry.

The handsome ship is a three-story "flat" ship, and the highest floor is a huge conference hall, and all the officers above the main level of the Northern Expeditionary Army can only occupy half of the space. Windows on all sides provide excellent views. The middle layer was used by those pens who accompanied the army, but the one on the roof of Liu Yu's bedroom was sealed and forbidden, so as not to disturb Liu Yu's dream with the sound of footsteps. Liu Yu's bedroom, living room, and dining room are all on the first floor, and they are guarded by the bedrooms of the white duty team's own soldiers. It is said that Liu Yu proposed to live on the highest floor, but the people around him argued that he must live on the first floor. One is more calm than the third floor, which is conducive to sleep; the second is to avoid the inconvenience of climbing up and down when his subordinates ask for orders; The third layer didn't say it, but everyone understands that once there is an emergency, the first layer is more conducive to getting out. Although Liu Yu didn't like to live at the feet of others, he didn't insist. But since his departure, except for sleeping at night, Liu Yu has rarely stayed on the first floor. Chen Song came to Shuai Ship several times, all in the empty conference hall on the third floor. But as soon as he boarded the ship today, he was taken directly to Liu Yu's living room on the first floor by the guards waiting on the side of the ship.

Liu Yu was ** on his upper body, taking a hard bow to practice arm strength, the upper back muscles contracted one by one, forming a deep river along the backbone bones, and a thin layer of sweat oozed out. Looking at the back, I don't feel that this is a person in his fifties. Liu Yu has to pull a hard bow every day to practice arm strength, and he can't be thundered for many years. When he was in good spirits, he would wrestle with the soldiers around him, and it was said that many young people could not win against him.

Ding Yi, the leader of the Baizhi team, stood next to him and nodded to Chen Song expressionlessly. The generals of the Beifu Army looked down on Ding Yi in private, thinking that he was actually a thug, and no one had ever seen whether he could fight or not. But everyone is afraid of him, because he specializes in doing "dirty work" for Liu Yu. Those who oppose Liu Yu will be eliminated sooner or later, and nine times out of ten it is Ding Yi. Jiangdong folk have long had a smooth saying: "Don't be arrogant, pay Ding Yi." ”

Liu Yu asked Chen Song without looking back:

"I heard that your man shot one?"

"Yes!"

"What's your name, where are you, are your parents still there?"

"Hui Taiwei, is a short lance under me, named Zheng Yanzhi, a native of Southern Xuzhou, his father was killed in battle, and his mother is still there."

Liu Yu handed the bow to Ding Yi, took off the wrench used to pull the bowstring with his right finger, and put it on the low table casually. turned around and faced Chen Song. Chen Song hadn't seen Liu Yu for a while. There was a swearing-in meeting when starting from Jiankang, but at the beginning, the emperor gave Liu Yu an axe, and Liu Yu knelt to accept it, with his back to everyone; Later, he turned around and said a few words, but Chen Song led the team to stand under the stage, and there were a bunch of civil and military ministers and Praetorian Guard officers and soldiers in front of him, and he couldn't see Liu Yu's face clearly. Now when I look closer, I realize that he has an old appearance: white on his head and chin. The corners of Liu Yu's mouth are pursed downward, which has always given people a very resolute impression. Now, the two lines that start from the corners of the mouth become deep grooves, which extend long to the jaw, and at first glance, it seems that another two hairs of beard have grown. The corners of the eyes begin to droop downward, and the ends of the eyes are divided into fine crow's feet. The four eyes met, and Chen Song saw a trace of light that could not tell whether it was warm or majestic. It is this light, there is no such thing as Liu Yu, it was like this back then, and it is still like this now. With a mouth, Chen Song found that Liu Yu's speech speed was much slower than before, but it still had a metallic voice.

"Father and son, two generations of Beifu soldiers, can't be treated badly! Send someone to take the old man to the Jiankang Martyrs' Camp and take good care of it. In the future, those of you who are the masters of the army and the leaders of the team, take strict care of them, and do not let the brethren take risks. It's not worth losing your life for the sake of anger! ”

The Loyal Martyrs Battalion was set up by Liu Yu when he was a general of Jianwu, and it was specially designed to house the bereaved families of the Beifu soldiers who died in battle. At first, he only set up one in Jiankang, using Liu Yu's own money, and if he didn't have enough money, he used the money to sell the loot to raise it. Later, there were more and more survivors, and Liu Yu's status became higher and higher, and this expense was borne by the imperial court. There are Zhonglie Camp in all states in Jiangdong, but the Jiankang Camp is under Liu Yu's nose and is the best. The Beifu soldiers fought bravely, and a lot of them were because they had no worries. Those orphans in the martyrs' camp, when they grow up, their sons inherit their father's business, and follow Liu Yu to the east and west, Zheng Yanzhi is an example.

Liu Yu wore a brocade robe, his belt was not tied, his chest muscles were bulging, and he sat on the Hu bed with bulging chest muscles, and asked the guards to move a small Hu bed for Chen Song.

"What do the brethren say?"

"They are all holding their stomachs, and they want to fight hard with Suotou to let them know that we are powerful. If it hurts, it will naturally be honest! ”

Liu Yu smiled:

"In the end, it is my soldier, who is not afraid of heaven and earth. So what do you say? ”

Chen Song's team leader was spelled out with a knife. He has always done whatever he was told to do by his superiors, and rarely worried about tactics. When Liu Yumeng asked, he was a little confused, and involuntarily reached out to scratch his scalp, but scratched his hard helmet. His wolf bèi appearance made Liu Yu very happy:

"There's a helmet in the cabin! Go for it. ”

Chen Song took off his helmet, clamped it under his armpit, and calmed down:

"Of course we have to send someone ashore to fight."

"Aren't you afraid of people attacking halfway?"

"You can go up in the middle of the night and attack them. I've noticed that they are all tents, there are no trenches, and there are no walls, so let's rush and kill while setting fires, and win in the chaos. ”

"You only see that they don't have a trench wall, but you forget that they also have a lot of patrolling rangers at night, and sneak attacks are easy to spot. As soon as the front was fought, the cavalry of the rear brigade immediately rushed to reinforce them, and the brethren who had sneaked up on the attack were afraid that they would not have time to withdraw to the ship, and they would be trampled into pulp. ”

Chen Song refused to stop his troops:

"Then sneak up in the middle of the night, form a formation by the water, and wait for the dawn to fight them!"

Liu Yu looked up at the roof of the cabin, and patted his leg with his right hand one by one, as if asking Chen Song, and as if asking himself:

"Fighting against the water, there is no way to retreat, in case you can't withstand the collision of the cavalry, you can only squeeze into the Yellow River. How much goes up and how much is finished! ”

Chen Song scratched his hair this time.

But Liu Yu seems to have suddenly lost interest in this topic:

"Chen Song, do you say it's interesting to be an official?"
