《三國演義 - Romance of the Three Kingdoms》 | [Ming] 1350-1400 |
《宴桃園豪傑三結義，斬黃巾英雄首立功 - Three Heroes Swear Brotherhood In The Peach Garden; One Victory Shatters The Rebels In Battlegrounds》 |
| 2 | 宴桃園豪... : | 話說天下大勢，分久必合，合久必分：周末七國分爭，并入於秦。及秦滅之後，楚、漢分爭，又并入於漢。漢朝自高祖斬白蛇而起義，一統天下。後來光武中興，傳至獻帝，遂分為三國。推其致亂之由，殆始於桓、靈二帝。桓帝禁錮善類，崇信宦官。及桓帝崩，靈帝即位，大將軍竇武、太傅陳蕃，共相輔佐。時有宦官曹節等弄權，竇武、陳蕃謀誅之，作事不密，反為所害。中涓自此愈橫。 |
| Three Heroes Swear Brotherhood...: |
The world under heaven, after a long period of division, tends to unite; after a long period of union, tends to divide. This has been so since antiquity. When the rule of the Zhou Dynasty weakened, seven contending kingdoms sprang up, warring one with another until the kingdom of Qin prevailed and possessed the empire. But when Qin's destiny had been fulfilled, arose two opposing kingdoms, Chu and Han, to fight for the mastery. And Han was the victor. The rise of the fortunes of Han began when Liu Bang the Supreme Ancestor slew a white serpent to raise the banners of uprising, which only ended when the whole empire belonged to Han (BC 202). This magnificent heritage was handed down in successive Han emperors for two hundred years, till the rebellion of Wang Mang caused a disruption. But soon Liu Xiu the Latter Han Founder restored the empire, and Han emperors continued their rule for another two hundred years till the days of Emperor Xian, which were doomed to see the beginning of the empire's division into three parts, known to history as The Three Kingdoms. But the descent into misrule hastened in the reigns of the two predecessors of Emperor Xian—-Emperors Huan and Ling—-who sat in the dragon throne about the middle of the second century. Emperor Huan paid no heed to the good people of his court, but gave his confidence to the Palace eunuchs. He lived and died, leaving the scepter to Emperor Ling, whose advisers were Regent Marshal Dou Wu and Imperial Guardian Chen Fan. Dou Wu and Chen Fan, disgusted with the abuses of the eunuchs in the affairs of the state, plotted the destruction for the power-abusing eunuchs. But Chief Eunuch Cao Jie was not to be disposed of easily. The plot leaked out, and the honest Dou Wu and Chen Fan were put to death, leaving the eunuchs stronger than before. |
《焚金闕董卓行兇，匿玉璽孫堅背約 - Burning The Capital, Dong Zhuo Commits An Atrocity; Hiding The Imperial Hereditary Seal, Sun Jian Breaks Faith》 |
| 7 | 焚金闕董... : | 卓臨行，教諸門放火，焚燒居民房屋，並放火燒宗廟宮府。南北兩宮，火焰相接；洛陽宮庭，盡為焦土。又差呂布發掘先皇及后妃陵寢，取其金寶。軍士乘勢掘官民墳塚殆盡。董卓裝載金珠緞疋好物數千餘車，劫了天子並后妃等，竟望長安去了。 |
| Burning The Capital, Dong...: |
Dong Zhuo's final orders as he left Capital Luoyang were to burn the whole city: Houses, palaces, temples, and everything were devoured by the flames. The capital became but a patch of scorched earth. Dong Zhuo sent Lu Bu to desecrate the tombs of the emperors and their consorts for the jewels therein, and the common soldiers took the occasion to dig up the graves of officials and plunder the cemeteries of the wealthy. The spoil of the city, gold and silver, pearls and silks, and beautiful ornaments, filled several thousand carts. With these and the persons of the Emperor and his household, Dong Zhuo moved off to the new capital in the first year of Inauguration of Tranquillity (AD 190). |
《禰正平裸衣罵賊，吉太醫下毒遭刑 - Mi Heng Slips His Garment And Rails At Traitors; Ji Ping Pledges To Kill The Prime Minister》 |
| 6 | 禰正平裸... : | 臣聞洪水橫流，帝思俾刈；旁求四方，以招賢俊。昔世宗繼統，將弘基業；疇咨熙載，群士響臻。陛下叡聖，纂承基緒，遭遇厄運，勞謙日昃；維嶽降神，異人並出。竊見處士平原禰衡：年二十四，字正平，淑質貞亮，英才卓犖；初涉藝文，升堂睹奧。目所一見，輒誦之口；耳所暫聞，不忘於心。性與道合，思若有神。弘羊潛計，安世默識，以衡準之，誠不足怪。忠果正直，志懷霜雪；見善若驚，嫉惡若讎。任座抗行，史魚厲節，殆無以過也。鷙鳥累百，不如一鶚。使衡立朝，必有可觀，飛辯聘詞，溢氣坌涌；解疑釋結，臨敵有餘。 |
| Mi Heng Slips His...: |
"In ancient days, when the great waters were abroad, the emperor pondered over their regulation and he sought out people of talent from all directions. In old time, when Emperor Wu of the Hans desired to enlarge his borders, crowds of scholars responded to his call. "Intelligent and holy, Your Majesty ascended the throne. You have fallen upon evil days, but have been diligent, modest, and untiring in your efforts. Now the great mountains have sent forth spirits, and people of genius appear. "I, your humble servant, know of a certain simple scholar, Mi Heng by name, of Pingyuan, a young man of twenty-four. His moral character is excellent, his talents eminent. As a youth he took a high place in study and penetrated the most secret arcane of learning. What he glanced at he could repeat, what he heard once he never forgot. He is naturally high principled, and his thoughts are divine. Sang Hongyang's mental calculations and Zhang Anshi's memorial feats compared with Mi Heng's powers are no longer wonderful. Loyal, sincere, correct, and straight-forward, his ambition is unsullied. He regards the good with trembling respect; he detests the evil with uncompromising hatred. Ren Zuo in unflinching candor, Shi Yu in severe rectitude, never surpassed him. "Hundreds of hawks are not worth one osprey. If Mi Heng be given a court appointment, notable results must follow. Ready in debate, rapid in utterance, his overwhelming intelligence wells up in profusion. In the solution of doubts and the unraveling of difficulties he has no peer. |
《曹操倉亭破本初，玄德荊州依劉表 - Cao Cao Overcomes Yuan Shao In Cangting; Liu Bei Seeks Shelter With Liu Biao In Jingzhou》 |
| 12 | 曹操倉亭... : | 正行之間，左邊曹洪、右邊夏侯惇，擋住去路。紹大呼曰：「若不決死戰，必為所擒矣！」奮力衝突，得脫重圍。袁熙、高幹皆被箭傷。軍馬死亡殆盡。紹抱三子痛哭一場，不覺昏倒。眾人急救，紹口吐鮮血不止，歎曰：「吾自歷戰數十場，不意今日狼狽至此！此天喪吾也！汝等各回本州，誓與曹賊一決雌雄！」便教辛評、郭圖火急隨袁譚前往青州整頓，恐曹操犯境；令袁熙仍回幽州，高幹仍回并州，各去收拾人馬，以備調用。袁紹引袁尚等入冀州養病，令尚與審配、逢紀暫掌軍事。 |
| Cao Cao Overcomes Yuan...: |
But presently Yuan Shao found his onward course again blocked by Xiahou Dun and Cao Hong, and he groaned aloud. "If we do not make most desperate efforts, we are all captives!" said he. And they plunged forward. His second son Yuan Xi and his nephew Gao Gan were wounded by arrows, and most of his soldiers were dead or had disappeared. He gathered his sons into his arms and wept bitterly. Then he fell into a swoon. He was picked up, but his mouth was full of blood which ran forth in a bright scarlet stream. He sighed, saying, "Many battles have I fought, and little did I think to be driven to this. Heaven is afflicting me. You had better return each to his own territory and swear to fight this Cao Cao to the end." Then Yuan Shao bade Xin Ping and Guo Tu as quickly as possible follow Yuan Tan to Qingzhou and prepare to give battle to Cao Cao lest he should invade. Yuan Xi was told to go to Youzhou and Gao Gan to Bingzhou. So each started to prepare armies and horses for repulsing Cao Cao. Yuan Shao with his youngest son Yuan Shang and the remnant of his officers went away to Jizhou, and military operations were suspended for a time. |
《玄德用計襲樊城，元直走馬薦諸葛 - Shan Fu's Strategy: Fankou Is Captured; Xu Shu's Affection: Zhuge Liang Is Recommended》 |
| 19 | 玄德用計... : | 正望間，忽見徐庶拍馬而回。玄德曰：「元直復回，莫非無去意乎？」遂欣然拍馬向前迎問曰：「先生此回，必有主意？」庶勒馬謂玄德曰：「某因心緒如麻，忘卻一語。此間有一奇士，只在襄陽城外二十里隆中。使君何不求之？」玄德曰：「敢煩元直為備請來相見。」庶曰：「此人不可屈致，使君可親往求之。若得此人，無異周得呂望、漢得張良也。」玄德曰：「此人比先生才德何如？」庶曰：「以某比之，譬猶駑馬並麒麟、寒鴉配鸞鳳耳。此人每嘗自比管仲、樂毅；以吾觀之，管、樂殆不及此人。此人有經天緯地之才，蓋天下一人也。」 |
| Shan Fu's Strategy: Fankou...: |
Suddenly they saw Xu Shu galloping back. Said Liu Bei, "He is returning: Can it be that he is going to stay?" So he hastened forward to meet Xu Shu, and when they got near enough, he cried, "This return is surely for no slight reason." Checking his horse, Xu Shu said, "In the turmoil of my feelings, I forgot to say one word. There is a person of wonderful skill living about seven miles from the city of Xiangyang. Why not seek him?" "Can I trouble you to ask him to visit me?" "He will not condescend to visit you. You must go to him. But if he consents, you will be as fortunate as the Zhou when they got the aid of Lu Wang, or the Han when Zhang Liang came to help." "How does the unknown compare with yourself?" "With me? Compared with him I am as a worn-out carthorse to a palomino, an old duck to a phoenix. This man often compares himself with the ancient sages Guan Zhong and Yue Yi but, in my opinion, he is far their superior. He has the talent to measure the heavens and mete the earth. He is a man who overshadows every other in the world." |
《定三分隆中決策，戰長江孫氏報讎 - Zhuge Liang Plans For The Three Kingdoms; Sun Quan Attacks Xiakou To Take Revenges》 |
| 7 | 定三分隆... : | 孔明曰：「自董卓造逆以來，天下豪傑並起。曹操勢不及袁紹，而竟能克紹者，非惟天時，抑亦人謀也。今操已擁百萬之眾，挾天子以令諸侯，此誠不可與爭鋒。孫權據有江東，已歷三世，國險而民附，此可用為援，而不可圖也。荊州北據漢沔，利盡南海，東連吳會，西通巴蜀，此用武之地，非其主不能守。是殆天所以資將軍，將軍豈可棄乎？益州險塞，沃野千里，天府之國，高祖因之以成帝業。今劉璋闇弱，民殷國富，而不知存恤，智能之士，思得明君。將軍既帝室之冑，信義著於四海，總攬英雄，思賢如渴，若跨有荊益，保其巖阻，西和諸戎，南撫彝越，外結孫權，內修政理；待天下有變，則命一上將，將荊州之兵，以向宛洛；將軍身率益州之眾，以出秦川，百姓有不簞食壼漿以迎將軍者乎？誠如是，則大業可成，漢室可興矣。此亮所以為將軍謀者也。惟將軍圖之。」言罷，命童子取出畫一軸，挂於中堂，指謂玄德曰：「此西川五十四州之圖也。將軍欲成霸業，北讓曹操占天時，南讓孫權占地利，將軍可占人和。先取荊州為家，後即取西川建基業，以成鼎足之勢，然後可圖中原也。」 |
| Zhuge Liang Plans For...: |
Zhuge Liang replied, "One bold person after another has arisen in various parts of the empire ever since the days of the rebel Dong Zhuo. Cao Cao was not so powerful as Yuan Shao, but he overcame Yuan Shao by seizing the favorable moment and using his soldiers properly. Now he is all-powerful: He rules an immense army and, through his control of the court, the various feudal lords as well. You cannot think of opposing him. Then the Suns have held their territory in the South Land for three generations. Their position in that old state of Wu may not appear too secure, but they have popularity to appeal to. You can gain support but win no success there. "The Region of Jingzhou rests on the two Rivers Han and Mian to the north, and their interests lie in all to the south of these rivers. On the east they touch Wu, and on the west they extend to the ancient states of Ba and Shu. This is the area in which decisive battles have to be won, and one must hold it in order to be secure, and Heaven has virtually made it yours. "The Region of Yizhou in the west is an important place, fertile and extensive, a country favored of Heaven and that through which the Founder of Han obtained the empire. Its ruler Liu Zhang is ignorant and weak. The people are noble and the country prosperous, but he does not know how to hold it all, and all the able people of the region are yearning for an enlightened prince. "As you are a scion of the Family, well known throughout the land as trusty and righteous, a whole-hearted hero, who greatly desires to win the support of the wise, if you get possession of Yizhou and Jingzhou, if on the west you are in harmony with the Rong Tribes, on the south win over the ancient states of Yi and Viet, make an alliance with Sun Quan of Wu, and maintain good government, you can await confidently the day when Heaven shall offer you the desired opportunity. Then you may depute a worthy leader to go to the northeast while you take command of an expedition to the northwest, and will you not find the warmest welcome prepared for you by the people? This done, the completion of the task will be easy. The Hans will be restored. And these are my counsels in all these operations, if you will only undertake them." Zhuge Liang paused while he bade the lad bring out a map. As this was unrolled Zhuge Liang went on, "There you see the fifty-four counties of the west. Should you wish to take the overlordship, you will yield the Heaven's favor to Cao Cao in the north, and you will relinquish the Earth's advantage to Sun Quan in the south. You, General, will hold the Human's heart and complete the trinity. Jingzhou is to be taken first as a home, the River Lands next for the foundation of domination. When you are firmly established, you can lay your plans for the attainment of the whole empire." |
《劉先主遺詔託孤兒，諸葛亮安居平五路》 |
| 17 | 劉先主遺... : | 先主駕崩，文武官僚，無不哀傷，孔明率眾官奉梓宮還成都。太子劉禪出城迎接靈柩，安於正殿之內。舉哀行禮畢，開讀遺詔。詔曰：朕初得疾，但下痢耳；後轉生雜病，殆不自濟。朕聞「人年五十，不稱夭壽」。今朕六十有餘，死復何恨。但以汝兄弟為念耳。勉之！勉之！勿以惡小而為之，勿以善小而不為。惟賢惟德可以服人；汝父德薄，不足效也吾亡之後，汝與丞相從事，事之如父，勿怠！勿忘！汝兄弟更求聞達，至囑！至囑！ |
《討魏國武侯再上表，破曹兵姜維詐獻書》 |
| 5 | 討魏國武... : | 曹操智計，殊絕於人，其用兵也，彷彿孫吳；然困於南陽，險於烏巢，危於祁連，逼於黎陽，幾敗北山，殆死潼關，然後偽定一時耳。況臣才弱，而欲以不危而定之，此臣之未解三也。 |
