Cao Mao; fearing his ministers terrible power; consented; and an edict was issued for the mands to mobilize two hundred sixty thousand troops of two capitals。 Wang Ji; General Who Corrects the South; was in mand of the van; and Chen Qian; General Who Pacifies the East; was second in mand of the van。 Shi Bao; Army Inspector; and Zhou Cai; Imperial Protector of Yangzhou; led the Imperial Escort。 The army moved into the South of River Huai like a great flood。

Zhu Yi; the Leader of the Van of Wu; encountered them; and both sides drew up for battle。 Zhu Yi rode out and took the challenge; but was overe by Wang Ji in the third bout and he fled。 Tang Zi also rode out; but was also beaten in the third encounter by Wang Ji。 Then Wang Ji ordered a full attack。 The troops of Wu were broken and retired fifteen miles and camped。 Thence they sent tidings of their ill…success to Shouchun。

Zhuge Dan in Shouchun led out his bold and strong soldiers to join forces with Wen Qin and his two sons; Wen Yang and Wen Hu。 Then they set out against Sima Zhao。

Now here is a check to the armies of Wu;

And Weis gallant men advance。

The next chapter will tell how went victory。

Main Next to Chapter 112 》》

Romance of Three Kingdoms … by Luo Guanzhong … Chapter 112

Chapter 112

Rescuing Shouchun; Yu Quan Dies Nobly;

Attacking Changcheng; Jiang Wei Mobilizes。

Hearing of this threatened attack; Sima Zhao sought advice from two of his officers; High Counselor Pei Xiu and Palace Assistant Zhong Hui。

Zhong Hui said; 〃The Wu army is helping our enemies for the sake of profit; and hence we can seduce them with an offer of greater profit。〃

Sima Zhao agreed in this opinion and resolved accordingly。 As part of his plan; he sent Shi Bao and Zhou Cai to lay ambushes in different places near Shouchun。

As ordered by Sima Zhao; Wang Ji and Chen Qian manded an army of veterans on the rear; Cheng Zu led thirty thousand troops out to bring on a battle; while Chen Jun got together many wagons; herds of oxen; droves of horses; donkeys and mules; and heaps of military supplies; all of which he crowded together in the midst of the army。 This stuff was meant to be abandoned as soon as the fight began; so that the enemy might be tempted to plunder。

That day; Zhuge Dan led the center army; while Zhu Yi and Wen Qin manded the left and right armies。 The armies being drawn up; Zhuge Dan looked across at his opponents and saw that the center of the Wei army was taken up by a disorderly mass of transport。 Presently he led on his troops to attack; and Cheng Zu; as bidden to do; gave way and fled; leaving a large amount of spoil。 When the soldiers of Wu saw such huge quantities of booty; theirs for the taking; they lost all desire to fight and scattered to gather the spoil。

While thus occupied; suddenly a bomb exploded and; from left and right; down came Shi Bao and Zhou Cai and the army of Wei upon the spoilers。 Zhuge Dan attempted to draw off; but other forces under Wang Ji and Chen Qian appeared; and he was heavily smitten。 Then came on Sima Zhao with his army; and Zhuge Dan fled to Shouchun; where he entered and shut the gates。 The army of Wei set down to the siege of the city; and the army of Wu retired into camp at Anfeng。 The Ruler of Wei; Cao Mao; was lodging at this time in Xiangcheng。

Then said Zhong Hui; 〃Zhuge Dan has been worsted; but the city wherein he has taken refuge is well supplied; and his allies; the troops of Wu; are not distant。 His position is strong。 Our soldiers are besieging the city all round; which means that those within will hold out for a long time; or they will make a desperate sortie。 Their allies also may fall upon us at the same time; and it would go hard with us。 Therefore; I advise that the attack be made only on three sides; leaving the south gate open for them if they wish to flee。 If they flee; we can fall on the fugitives。 The troops of Wu cannot have supplies for very long。 If we sent some light cavalry round by their rear; we might stay their fighting power without a battle。〃

'e' Zhang Liang; aka Zhang Zifang; the master strategist for Liu Bang。 His family had served the state of Han as chief ministers during the Warring States period。 It is said that he received the strategy book of Lu Wang from a mysterious old man。 When he was young; Zhang Liang plotted to assasinate the First Emperor; but failed。 He later rebeled against Qin。 Joined Liu Bang (BC 206) to fight against Qin and then Chu。 Remended Han Xin to Liu Bang。 Zhang Liangs insights had earned him the name 〃The Teacher of Emperor〃。 After Liu Bang won the empire; Zhang Liang was enobled as Lord of Liu; but did not take office; instead he resigned from political life and traveled。 。。。。。

〃You are my Zhang Liang*;〃 said Sima Zhao; stroking the back of his adviser。 〃Your advice is excellent!〃

So Wang Ji; who was on the south of the city; was ordered to withdraw。

But in the Wu camp at Anfeng was much sadness at the want of success。

Sun Chen said to General Zhu Yi; 〃If we cannot succor Shouchun; how can we hope to overrun the Middle Land? Now and here you have to win a victory or die; for another defeat will mean death。〃

Zhu Yi went back to his camp and talked with Yu Quan。

Yu Quan said; 〃The south gate of Shouchun is free; and I will lead therein some of our troops to help Zhuge Dan。 Then you challenge the Wei army on one side; and we will e out from the city and attack on the other side。〃

Zhu Yi thought the plan good; and Quan Yi; Quan Duan; and Wen Qin were willing to go into the city and share in the attack。 They were allowed to march in without hindrance as the Wei generals had no orders to stop them。

When this was reported to Sima Zhao; he said; 〃This is a plan to defeat our army by making a front and rear attack。〃

So he called Wang Ji and Chen Qian and told them to take five thousand troops to keep the road along which Zh
