The Pandavas were sitting and talking when Krishna arrived. The Pandavas asked him what had happened?
Krishna said You have a stubborn enemy. He refuses to part off any land. He refused even five villages. He said he would give even that land that lies at the tip of a needle.
This angered Yudhistira. Calming himself, he said The war will happen.
Saying this, he asked for the allies to be sent messages for the war. He asked Sahadeva when was the right time to start for Kurukshetra. Sahadeva looked at the almanac and said Today is the fifth day of the moon and is the best day for one to start.
People started arriving. Camp was set up in Kurukshetra.
Shalya, uncle of Pandavas and brother of Madri came with an intention of fighting for the Pandavas. Duryodhana knew that Shalya was fond of entertainment and setup entertainment houses on the way. Shalya was happy but later realized this was a ruse of Duryodhana. He agreed reluctantly but said he wanted to meet Yudhistira once, before he moved to the Kaurava camp.
Duryodhana agreed. Shalya went and informed the Pandavas about what had happened.
Yudhistira said to Shalya - I am fine that you are sticking to your word. I need your help. When Arjuna and Karna fight, I need you to become the charioteer for Karna. Demotivate Karna as much as you can.
Shalya said he would what he could for the Pandavas. He said - For the good of you and Draupadi, I will take revenge for the words spoken by Karna during the game of dice. Suffering is there and even the great Indra had to suffer.
Yudhistira wanted to know about this. Shalya said - Let me tell you about the miseries that Indra had to face.
