Liu Yu said: "Brother Chi, right now Yelu Shilu's army is chasing after our horses' buttocks, if we don't fight again, then there is really no chance!" Chi Hu said urgently: "Since you want to fight, then you must prepare well! You and the soldiers are drunk one by one, how can this battle be fought?"

Liu Yu put down the wine jar, sat on the horseback and straightened his waist, and said with a smile: "Brother Chi, do you think I look like I'm drunk?" Chi Hu said unconvinced: "It's not pretending to be drunk or not, you have to use real knives and guns to talk later." Liu Yu looked at his face seriously and said, "Brother Chi, you have to believe me!"

Chi Huhu stammered a little and replied, "I'...... It's not that I don't believe it...... You, I'm worried about the urgency of the military situation, and I can't delay for a moment!" When he said this, he couldn't help but think secretly, "I am the only general in this army, why do these soldiers love to listen to Liu Yu, a little doll, but they don't want to listen to me." "It's like knocking over the spice bottle in my heart, and all kinds of flavors are flooding my heart.

Liu Yuyao pointed to the sunset in the west on the grassland, and said with a smile: "Brother Chi, you see, we have been on the road without a moment's delay! He gulped down the rest of the wine from the altar, but instead of throwing it away, he gave it to a special soldier for safekeeping.

Chi Hulu looked back at the ox carts at the back of the procession, which were full of empty wine jars, and there were dozens of them. He couldn't help but persuade: "I said that these empty wine altars can only affect the speed of the march, can't they all be thrown away?" Liu Yu said: "Brother Chi, I have a reason. He staggered on horseback, took out a red-skin book from his bosom in the afterglow of the setting sun, and read it leisurely, not caring that he was blowing his beard and glaring angrily.

Chi Hu was really angry for a while, but he was open-minded, and after holding it for a while, he felt that he was angry with a child, which really made people see the joke, and his heart turned around. He secretly glanced at Liu Yu, only to see that his messy hair was blown away by the wind, and the sword scar on his right cheek was blood-red and hideous reflected by the sunset, where did he look like an ordinary child?

As the sky grew darker, Chi suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the rear of the group, and when he looked back, a scout hurried towards the front of the group, as if there was an urgent military report. When the scout got closer, Chi Hulu recognized him, this is a young man who has been in Liu Yu's tent for many days, and he used to be drunk every day, but today he looks at his complexion, but it seems that he has not been drunk, which is really rare!

The scout rode up to Liu Yu and shouted, "Oh no, the men of Yelu Shilu have caught up!" When Chi Hu heard this, he hurriedly asked, "How many are there?" The scout hurriedly replied: "Report to the general, the number of people is really innumerable, and the sky is overwhelming, and you can't see the end at a glance." ”

Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "Yelu Shilu is really going to go out, convey my orders, and speed up the march!" The team immediately marched in a hurry, and a group of drunken men sat on horseback and staggered. Chi Huyi frowned at the situation in front of him, but it was not easy to attack, so as not to let Liu Yu misunderstand his small belly and chicken intestines, and wanted to compete with him for military power.

As the night deepened, and the soldiers and horses of Jerushhrus drew nearer and nearer, the rumbling sound of iron hooves startled the wild creatures of the steppe in all directions, and it was terrifying to see it, and in his usual experience, a great battle was inevitable. The hearts of the people in the ranks began to fluctuate, and the soldiers began to gather together and whisper.

Liu Yu turned his head and nodded to a soldier and said, "You go and give orders to the various accounts, and everyone starts singing." ”

"Singing?" Chi suddenly heard it, and he couldn't believe his ears.

"Yes, sing!" replied.

After a while, the singing sounded one after another in the winding army, "The majestic Baiyin Han Mountain is covered with snow, the boundless Ulanda Dam is thousands of miles of forests, the surging Wuerji Mulun River is flowing endlessly, and the vast Khitan grassland stretches endlessly...... "Perhaps infected by the song, the original whispers in the team became smaller and smaller. These drunken men sang more and more passionately, and their loud singing voices pointed to the sky, and it seemed that the grassland under their feet was also shaking.

Chi Hulu couldn't hold back his temper anymore and protested loudly: "Liu Yu, you can't do this! When Yelu Shilu hears this song, he will know how many of us there are, and this will expose the reality of our troops. However, his voice was drowned out by the soldiers' singing, and few people heard what he was saying, except for Liu Yu.

Liu Yu leaned up to his ear and said with a smile: "Brother Chi, how many people do you think of singing when you hear this voice?" Chi Hugang shook his head and said angrily: "Hmph! You drunks sing happily, no matter how loud your voice is, can you sing the people of Yelu Shilu to death!?"

Liu Yu laughed when he heard it, he took the book "Mirror of the Six Armies" into his arms, and at this moment a belief became more and more firm in his heart, "Whoever is in battle must first defeat himself and then defeat others." Those who are brave and resolute will be invincible against the enemy!"

Jerush's soldiers and horses followed behind him unhurriedly, but they did not come close after all. After walking for more than half an hour, Liu Yu patted his cooing stomach and ordered to the rear: "Get off the horse and make a fire to barbecue meat!" Chi Hulu was shocked when he heard this, and said: "Are you crazy? The big war is imminent, and you still have to cook!"

Liu Yu said with a smile: "Brother Chi, we have to eat enough to have the strength to fight." The soldiers dismounted one after another, and piles of bonfires were lit on the grassland, lighting up half of the sky. Jerusher's army stopped two miles away, looking at it from afar, but saw no movement.

After a while, the aroma of barbecued meat wafted through, and it was estimated that even those who were two miles away could smell it from Jerusherus. Chi suddenly looked in the direction of the enemy army, and only the little torches could be seen in the distance, which seemed quite deserted, and it seemed that they had no intention of making a fire to cook. Looking at his side again, Liu Yu and the soldiers were around the fire, holding the leg of mutton and feasting.

He squeezed away the two soldiers, sat down against Liu Yu, grabbed a leg of mutton and asked while gnawing on it: "Hey, I said, what kind of conspiracy are you playing, Yelu Shilu and those people actually watched us eat meat, and they didn't come up to attack." Liu Yu wiped his mouth, took a scoop of water and drank it all, and said with a smile: "Brother Chi, that's because Yelu Shilu didn't dare! From the beginning, he didn't dare, at first he only sent some archers to shoot at us in front of the formation, and later sent Yelu Xuan to call the battle outside the camp, but he never really fought against us. ”

Chi Hulu said loudly: "That's because we had the third prince sitting in the battle at that time, and Yelu Shilu didn't dare to offend easily. But now the situation is very different, the third prince doesn't know where he is, and our group of people can only be regarded as a rabble without a leader. As long as Jerushe gives the order to charge, I can guarantee that we rabbit cubs will be so scared that we can't even hold on to our knives. ”

Liu Yu stood up, wiped his two oily hands with his pants, and said, "But big brother Chi, you see, they didn't dare to rush over after all." He turned on his horse and ordered the army to continue its march.

After the soldiers had eaten and drunk, the singing became louder and louder. Chi Hulu was quite infected when he heard it, and later he even sang along. Jerusher's men and horses continued to follow silently, and every now and then a few squads sought an opportunity to slip away from the bulk and gallop away in other directions.

Seeing this, Chi Hulu's heart beat a lot, and said, "Oh no, Yelu Shilu is trying to surround us!" Liu Yu disagreed, and said: "Brother Chi, you are too nervous, these people and horses are walking in twos and threes, suddenly out of order, and it looks more like an escape." The army marched on for another two hours, and along the way there were fewer and fewer men and horses of Jerusherus. Judging from the number of torches and the sound of horses' hooves in the other army, it seems that a small number of people have been missing.

Chi suddenly straightened his neck and looked around vigilantly, but no one was seen surrounding him. He asked suspiciously, "What the hell is Yelushi trying to do, where have so many people gone?" )
