Chapter 051-03 주유의 헛수고
 
卻說曹洪,曹純,牛金聞周瑜兵將至,先使人往南郡報知曹仁,一面分兵拒敵。及吳兵至,曹兵迎之。比及交鋒,甘寧,周泰分兩路殺出,曹兵大亂,吳兵四下掩殺。曹洪,曹純,牛金,果然投小路而走;卻被亂柴塞道,馬不能行,盡皆棄馬而走。吳兵得馬五百餘匹。周瑜驅兵星夜趕到南郡,正遇曹仁軍來救彝陵。兩軍接著,混戰一場。天色已晚,各自收兵。

曹仁回城中,與眾商議。曹洪曰:「目今失了彝陵,勢已危急,何不拆丞相遺計觀之,以解此危?」曹仁曰:「汝言正合吾意。」遂拆書觀之,大喜,便傳令教五更造飯;平明,大小軍馬,盡皆棄城;城上遍插旌旗,虛張聲勢,軍分三門而出。

卻說周瑜救出甘寧,陳兵於南郡城外。見曹兵分三門而出,瑜上將臺觀看。只見女牆邊虛插旌旗,無人守護;又見軍士腰下各束縛包裏。瑜暗忖曹仁必先準備走路,遂下將臺號令,分布兩軍為左右翼;如前軍得勝,只顧向前追趕,直待鳴金,方許退步。命程普督後軍,瑜親自引軍取城。對陣鼓聲響處,曹洪出馬搦戰。瑜自至門旗下,使韓當出馬,與曹洪交鋒。戰到三十餘合,洪敗走。曹仁自出接戰。周泰縱馬相迎。鬥十餘合,仁亦敗走,陣勢錯亂。

周瑜麾兩翼軍殺出,曹軍大敗。瑜自引軍馬追至南郡城下,曹軍皆不入城,望西北而走。韓當,周泰引前部盡力追趕。瑜見城門大開;城上又無人,遂令眾軍搶城。數十騎當先而入。瑜在背後縱馬加鞭,直入甕城。陳矯在敵樓上,望見周瑜親自入城來,暗暗喝采道:「丞相妙策如神!」

一聲梆子響,兩邊弓弩齊發,勢如驟雨。爭先入城的,都【左手部,右為顛】入陷坑內。周瑜急勒馬回時,被一弩箭,正射中左肋,翻身落馬。牛金從城中殺出,來捉周瑜。徐盛,丁奉,二人,捨命救去。城中曹兵突出,吳兵自相踐踏,落塹坑者無數。程普急收軍時,曹洪,曹仁分兵兩路殺回。吳兵大敗。幸得凌統引一軍從刺斜裏殺來,敵住曹兵。曹仁引得勝軍進城,程普收敗軍回寨。丁、徐二將救得周瑜到帳中,喚行軍醫者用鐵鉗子拔出箭頭,將金瘡藥敷掩瘡口,疼不可當,飲食俱廢。醫者曰:「此箭頭上有毒,急切不能痊可。若怒氣沖激,其瘡復發。」程普令三軍緊守各寨,不許輕出。三日後,牛金引軍來搦戰,程普按兵不動。牛金罵至日暮方回,次日又來罵戰。程普恐瑜生氣,不敢報知。第三日,牛金直至寨門外叫罵,聲聲只道要捉周瑜。程普與眾商議,欲暫且退兵,回見吳侯,卻再理會。

64 When the news of the approach of Zhou Yu 주유 had reached Yiling 이릉, Cao Hong 조홍, Cao Chun 조순, and Niu Jin 우금 had sent to tell Cao Ren 조인, who was at Nanjun 남군, and at the same time they prepared to repel the assailants.

65 As the army of the South Land came near, they at once attacked. Simultaneously Gan Ning 감녕 and Zhou Tai 주태 went out to attack on two sides, and the troops of Cao Hong were thrown into confusion. The soldiers of the South Land fell on lustily, and the three leaders all fled by a bye road, but, finding the way barred with felled trees and other obstacles, they had to abandon their horses and go afoot. In this way the troops of the South Land gained some five hundred steeds.

66 Zhou Yu, pressing on as quickly as possible toward Nanjun, came upon Cao Ren and his army marching to save Yiling. The two armies engaged and fought a battle which lasted till late in the evening. Then both drew off, and Cao Ren withdrew into the city.

67 During the night he called his officers to a council.

68 Then said Cao Hong, "The loss of Yiling has brought us to a dangerous pass. Now it seems the time to open the guide-letter of the Prime Minister, and see what plans he arranged for our salvation in this peril."

69 "You but say what I think," replied Cao Ren.

70 Whereupon he tore open the guide-letter and read it. His face lighted up with joy, and he at once issued orders to have the morning meal prepared at the fifth watch. At daylight the whole army moved out of the city through three gates, but they left a semblance of occupation in the shape of banners on the walls.

71 Zhou Yu went up to the tower of observation and looked over the city. He saw that the flags along the battlements had no guards behind them, and he noticed that all troops carried bundles at their waists behind so that they were ready for a long march.

72 Thought Zhou Yu to himself, "Cao Ren must be prepared for a long march."

73 So Zhou Yu went down from the tower of observation and sent out an order for two wings of the army to be ready. One of these was to attack and, in case of its success, the other was to pursue at full speed till the clanging of the gongs should call them to return. He took command of the leading force in person, and Cheng Pu commanded the other. Thus they advanced to attack the city.

74 The armies being arrayed facing each other, the drums rolled out across the plain. Cao Hong rode forth and challenged, and Zhou Yu, from his place by the standard, bade Han Dang 한당 respond. The two champions fought near two score bouts, and then Cao Hong fled. Thereupon Cao Ren came out to help him, and Zhou Tai 주태 rode out at full speed to meet him. These two exchanged a half score passes and then Cao Ren tied.

75 Cao Ren's army fell into confusion. Thereupon Zhou Yu gave the signal for the advance of both his wings, and the forces of Cao Ren were sore smitten and defeated. Zhou Yu pursued to the city wall, but Cao Ren's troops did not enter the city. Instead, they went away northwest. Han Dang and Zhou Tai pressed them hard.

76 Zhou Yu, seeing the city gates standing wide open and no guards upon the walls, ordered the raiding of the city. A few score horsemen rode in first, Zhou Yu followed and whipping his steed. As he galloped into the enclosure around the gate, Chen Jiao 진교 stood on the defense tower. When he saw Zhou Yu enter, in his heart he applauded the god-like perspicacity of the Prime Minister Cao Cao.

77 Then was heard the clap-clap of a watchman's rattle. At this signal the archers and crossbowmen let fly, and the arrows and bolts flew forth in a sudden fierce shower, while those who had won their way to the van of the inrush went headlong into a deep trench. Zhou Yu managed to pull up in time, but turning to escape, he was wounded in the left side and fell to the ground. Niu Jin 우금 rushed out from the city to capture the chief, but Xu Sheng 서성 and Ding Feng 정봉 at the risk of their lives got him away safe. Then the troops of Cao Ren dashed out of the city and wrought confusion among the troops of the South Land, who trampled each other down and many more fell into the trenches. Cheng Pu 정보 tried to draw off, but Cao Ren and Cao Hong came toward him from different directions, and the battle went hardly against the soldiers of Zhou Yu, till help came from Ling Tong, who bore back their assailants. Satisfied with their success, Cao Ren led his forces into the city, while the losers marched back to their own camp.

78 Zhou Yu, sorely wounded, was taken to his own tent and the army physician called in. With iron forceps, he extracted the sharp bolt and dressed the wound with a lotion designed to counteract the poison of the metal. But the pain was intense, and the patient rejected all nourishment.

79 The physician said, "The missile had been poisoned, and the wound will require a long time to heal. You, General, must be kept quiet and especially free from any irritation, which will cause the wound to reopen."
 
80 Thereupon Cheng Pu gave orders that each division was to remain in camp. Three days later, Niu Jin came within sight and challenged the men of the South Land to battle, but they did not stir. The enemy hurled at them taunts and insults till the sun had fallen low in the sky, but it was of no avail and Niu Jin withdrew.

81 Next day Niu Jin returned and repeated his insulting abuse. Cheng Pu dared not tell the wounded general. The third day, waxing bolder, the enemy came to the very gates of the stockade, the leader shouting that he had come for the purpose of capturing Zhou Yu.

82 Then Cheng Pu called together his officers, and they discussed the feasibility of retirement into the South Land that they might seek the opinion of Sun Quan.
