Liu Yu's face turned red after hearing this, and he was a little angry in his heart, "Thanks to the Khan's promotion, I am a Tang Dynasty man in life, and I am a Tang soul in death." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info If the Khitans dare to threaten the Central Plains, I will lead people to resist, and I will never let you get an inch of the Central Plains!"

When Jelu Shilu heard this, not only was he not angry, but laughed, "I'm talking about a hundred years from now, and by that time, you and I may no longer be alive, and maybe it's not our turn to worry about these things." ”

Liu Yu said proudly: "Even if I die, there are still thousands of sons and daughters of the Central Plains." As long as someone is alive, the Central Plains will never be handed over!"

Yelu Shilu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Yes, the young man is ambitious. It's a pity that ambition can't be drunk as wine, and it can't be eaten as meat!"

As soon as he laughed, he couldn't help coughing violently, his body trembled violently, and he had to hold his right hand on the desk.

Liu Yu looked at this middle-aged man, who was energetic at the beginning, but now he was a little too premature, and wondered how a big battle with the Tubo people had made this person's heart so haggard?

He asked tentatively, "Khan, can I touch your wrist vein?"

He understood that the Khan's illness was the Khitan's top secret, and that only the closest shamanic witch doctor could know about it. Although he is out of concern, asking such a question is undoubtedly suspected of overstepping the thunder pool. If Jerusheru was angry, it would be enough for him to fall from the earth into the hell of Abi in the next moment.

The muscles on Yelu Shilu's face moved, and he stared at him for a quarter of an hour, then retreated, "You come with me!"

Liu Yu was enthusiastic, "Thank you Khan for your trust!"

Yelu Shilu smiled slightly, "Although you are from the Central Plains, you are an upright person, and you are more credible than those confidants of mine." Do not talk about today's events to others. ”

The two rode away from the army and came to a place where no one was around.

Yelu Shilu unfastened his armor and chest placket, and although there were herbs covering the knife on the opening of his right chest, it still looked shocking.

His face turned pale, and after coughing a few times, he said, "Actually, Mrs. Xiao stabbed me that night, and I just pretended to be fine." My guards failed to catch the cunning mother-in-law and let her slip away. ”

Liu Yu hurriedly stepped forward to check on his injuries and asked, "Dare to ask who helped Khan deal with the knife edge?"

"It's the great witch doctor I trust the most, and he says I'll live for three more years at most. Three years later, the wound ruptured, and he had to die. Yelu Shilu sighed, "That's why I'm in a hurry to ask you about my posthumous affairs, the eight Khitan tribes can no longer act independently, so that they are used by others and dumped against each other." So I'm going to leave a suitable successor!"

Liu Yu pondered for a moment, "Why did the Khan tell me this?"

Jerusherus smiled, "Because I trust you, and those who turn from enemies to friends are more reliable than ordinary friends." Speaking of this, he coughed a few more times, "I also have a wish, I want you to follow me to learn how to march and fight, and military affairs." That way, even if I die, the Khitan will still have generals available. ”

"But I am a native of the Central Plains, and I will definitely return to the Central Plains in the future!" Liu Yu said.

Jerushlu looked at him with deep meaning in his eyes, "You say so, but I can see that you are a good man. If the Khitan is in trouble in the future, you will not stand idly by. Passing on the art of fighting with soldiers to you is more worthy of my trust than anyone else. ”

"Yes, I'm a good man!" Liu Yu muttered, "Khan said so, and Madame Xiao said so. But good people don't necessarily do good things, and they may do worse than bad people. ”

Yelu Shilu laughed, followed by a violent cough, "That's the old you, you are not sensible, so you will be taken advantage of." A good person must first be a cunning person, and only then can you achieve your original intention. ”

Liu Yu saluted him, "Thank you Khan for teaching me to be a cunning person!"

Jelu Shilu shook his head, "No need to teach, you are already on the way." The funeral you held for Su Ming was very good, and now many soldiers are willing to follow you, and they feel that even if they die, there are people talking about it, which is a good thing. ”

"But I'm sincere, not a joke!" Liu argued, he didn't seem to care about his reputation in the army.

"Oh?" Yelu Shilu was stunned for a moment, "That Su Ming has only been working for the Emei faction from beginning to end, why do you call him a brother? ”

"He's a loyal and trustworthy man, isn't that enough?" asked Liu.

Yelu Shilu smiled slightly, "There are many such people, but not all of them are worthy of being friends. Having said that, Su Ming's funeral was very well organized, quite a bit like Cao Mengde in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms when he mourned his love for Dian Wei!"

"Hmm......" Liu Yu said.

The atmosphere fell into a long silence, and the two were silent for a long time.

......

On the second day, Yelu Shilu led the eight Khitan tribes and successfully rushed out of the forest sea of Ulandaba. The Tibetans only sent a small number of scouts to follow behind to reconnoitre, and it was difficult to make a big move. Therefore, he sent only a small number of rangers to drive them away, and the rest of the men marched as usual.

Beyond the forest, the snow melts, the dead grass emerges from the snow, and the vast grassland begins to regain its true color.

At noon on the seventh day, a vast desert appeared before everyone's eyes. The sun was scorching, and the desert was unusually hot, making everyone sweat and their throats dry and smoking.

Jerusherus ordered the army to stop and rest, and prepare to make a fire for cooking.

At this moment, a team of about 100 Tibetans appeared from the sand dunes in front. These people were like crazy, and they came straight to the Chinese army of Jerusherus. Seeing this, all the soldiers hurriedly stopped making a fire to cook, grabbed weapons from the ground, formed a formation, and stretched out their spears forward in unison, ready to meet the invading Tibetans.

Although the number of these Tibetans was small, they all regarded the Khitan people's guns and spears as if they were nothing, and rushed straight towards them without hesitation. But the look on their faces was not death, but full of fear.

What is it that can make these Tubo people so afraid that they don't even care about the swords and guns ushered in by the Khitans in front of them?

Just as the Khitans were nervously preparing to meet the enemy, a scream suddenly came from the end of this Tibetan team.

What seemed to be some kind of spherical monster chased after him from behind, biting the Tibetan soldier's neck. The soldier screamed and fell to his death.

The moment he fell from his horse, the monster let go of his neck, leaped to his feet, and struck the unlucky man in front of him in the neck.

Screams continued to rise, and people continued to fall from their horses.
