〃Yes；　truly　a　wise　man。　I　would　employ　him。〃

So　Sun　Ce　sent　two　officers　to　invite　Yu　Fan；　and　he　came　at　once。　He　was　treated　in　most　friendly　fashion　and　appointed　an　official　forthwith。　Then　the　question　of　treating　the　wounded　man　was　brought　up。

〃The　surgeon　is　one　Hua　Tuo　from　Qiao；　who　has　perfectly　marvelous　medicine　skill。　I　will　get　him　to　e；〃　said　Yu　Fan。

Shortly　the　famous　Hua　Tuo　arrived；　a　man　with　the　plexion　of　a　youth　and　a　snowy　beard。　He　looked　more　like　a　saint　who　had　passed　the　gates　of　this　life。　He　was　treated　very　warmly　and　taken　to　see　the　sick　generals　wounds。

〃The　case　is　not　difficult；〃　said　the　surgeon。

And　he　prepared　certain　drugs　that　healed　the　wounds　within　a　month。　Sun　Ce　suitably　acknowledged　his　care　and　skill；　and　he　was　allowed　to　leave　with　rich　rewards。

Next　Sun　Ce　attacked　the　brigands　and　destroyed　them；　so　restoring　plete　tranquillity　to　the　South　Land。　After　this　he　set　garrisons　at　all　the　strategic　points　in　the　old　state　of　Wu；　and　this　done；　memorialized　what　he　had　achieved　to　the　Throne。　He　came　to　an　understanding　with　Cao　Cao　and　sent　letters　to　Yuan　Shu　demanding　the　return　of　the　Imperial　Hereditary　Seal　he　had　left　in　pledge。

But　Yuan　Shu；　secretly　cherishing　the　most　ambitious　designs；　wrote　excuses　and　did　not　return　the　state　jewel。　In　his　own　place　Yuan　Shu　hastily　summoned　about　thirty　of　his　officers　to　a　council。　Among　them　were　Adviser　Yang　Dajiang　and　Generals　Zhang　Xun；　Ji　Ling；　Qiao　Rui；　Lei　Bo；　and　Chen　Lan。

Yuan　Shu　said；　〃Sun　Ce　borrowed　an　army　from　me　and　set　out　on　an　expedition　which　has　made　him　master　of　the　South　Land。　Now　he　says　nothing　of　repayment　but　demands　the　token　of　his　pledge。　Truly　he　is　a　boor；　and　what　steps　can　I　take　to　destroy　him？〃

Yang　Dajiang　replied；　〃You　cannot　do　any　thing　against　him；　for　he　is　too　strongly　placed；　the　Great　River　as　the　shield。　You　must　first　remove　Liu　Bei　in　revenge　for　having　attacked　you　without　cause；　and　then　you　may　think　about　Sun　Ce。　I　have　a　scheme　to　put　the　former　into　your　hands　in　a　very　short　time。〃

Yuan　Shu　went　not　to　destroy　the　tiger；　but　instead

Against　a　dragon　forth　his　army　led。

The　means　Yang　Dajiang　employed　will　be　made　plain　in　the　next　chapter。

Main　Next　to　Chapter　16　》》

Romance　of　Three　Kingdoms　…　by　Luo　Guanzhong　…　Chapter　16

Chapter　16

In　The　Camp　Gate；　Lu　Bu　Shoots　The　Halberd；

At　River　Yu；　Cao　Cao　Suffers　Defeat。

Adviser　Yang　Dajiang　knew　how　to　remove　Liu　Bei。

〃What　is　your　plan　of　attack　on　Liu　Bei？〃　said　Yuan　Shu。

Yang　Dajiang　replied；　〃Though　Liu　Bei；　now　camped　at　Xiaopei；　could　easily　be　taken；　yet　Lu　Bu　is　strongly　posted　at　the　chief　city　near。　And　I　think　Lu　Bu　would　help　Liu　Bei　if　it　was　only　for　the　grudge　he　bears　against　you　for　not　having　given　him　the　gold　and　studs；　grain　and　horses　you　promised。　First　of　all　you　should　send　Lu　Bu　a　present　whereby　to　engage　his　affections　and　keep　him　quiet　while　you　deal　with　Liu　Bei。　You　can　see　to　Lu　Bu　after　this　is　done；　and　Xuzhou　is　yours。〃

Thereupon　two　hundred　thousand　carts　of　millet　was　sent；　with　letters；　by　the　hand　of　Han　Yin。　The　gift　pleased　Lu　Bu　greatly；　and　he　treated　the　messenger　with　great　cordiality。　Feeling　sure　of　no　trouble　from　that　quarter；　Yuan　Shu　told　off　one　hundred　thousand　troops　against　Xiaopei。　The　army　was　led　by　Ji　Ling　as　manding　general；　and　Lei　Bo　and　Chen　Lan　as　generals。

When　Liu　Bei　heard　these　things　he　called　his　officers　to　take　counsel。　Zhang　Fei　was　for　open　war　forthwith。

But　Sun　Qian　said；　〃Our　resources　were　too　small；　therefore；　we　must　lay　the　position　before　Lu　Bu　and　ask　help。〃

〃Do　you　think　that　fellow　will　do　anything？〃　said　Zhang　Fei　cynically。

Liu　Bei　decided　in　favor　of　Sun　Qians　proposal　and　wrote　as　follows：

〃Humbly　I　venture　to　remind　you　that　I　am　here　by　your　orders　and　enjoy　repose　as　the　result　of　your　kindness；　extensive　as　the　heavens。　Now　Yuan　Shu；　moved　by　a　desire　for　revenge；　is　sending　a　force　against　this　place；　and　its　destruction　is　imminent　unless　you　intervene　to　save　it。　I　trust　you　will　send　an　army　quickly　to　protect　the　town；　and　our　happiness　will　be　inexpressible。〃

Receiving　this　Lu　Bu　called　in　Chen　Gong　to　whom　he　said；　〃I　have　just　received　gifts　from　Yuan　Shu　and　a　letter；　with　the　intent　of　restraining　me　from　helping　Liu　Bei。　Now　es　a　letter　from　Liu　Bei　asking　help。　It　seems　to　me　that　Liu　Bei　where　he　is　can　do　me　no　harm；　but　if　Yuan　Shu　overes　Liu　Bei　and　es　to　an　understanding　with　the　leaders　around　the　Huashang　Mountains；　then　the　po
