| 卻說蒯良曰：「今孫堅已喪，其子皆幼。乘此虛弱之時，火速進軍，江東一鼓可得。若還屍罷兵，容其養成氣力，荊州之患也。」表曰：「吾有黃祖在彼營中，安忍棄之？」良曰：「捨一無謀黃祖而取江東，有何不可？」表曰：「吾與黃祖心腹之交，捨之不義。」遂送桓楷回營，相約以孫堅尸換黃祖。 | This is what Kuai Liang said, "Sun Jian is now gone, and his children are but youths. Seize this moment of weakness to break into the South Land, and it is yours in one beat of the drum. If you return the corpse and make peace, you give them time to grow powerful, and evil will ensue to Jingzhou." "How can I leave Huang Zu in their hands?" said Liu Biao. "Why not sacrifice this blundering warrior for a region?" "But he is my dear friend, and to abandon him is wrong." So Huan Ji was allowed to return to his own side with the understanding that Sun Jian's dead body should be given in exchange |
