Song-Ming -> Romance of the Three Kingdoms -> Cao Ren Withstands The South Land; Zhuge Liang Angers Zhou Yu -> 7

酒至數巡，瑜曰：「豫州移兵在此，莫非有取南郡之意否？」玄德曰：「聞都督欲取南郡，故來相助。若都督不取，備必取之。」瑜笑曰：「吾東吳久欲吞併漢江，今南郡已在掌中，如何不取？」玄德曰：「勝負不可預定。曹操臨歸，今曹仁守南郡等處，必有奇計；更兼曹仁勇不可當；但恐都督不能取耳。」瑜曰：「吾若取不得，那時任從公取。」玄德曰：「孔明，子敬在此為證，都督休悔。」

The banquet proceeded. After a few more courses Zhou Yu said, "Of course you are camped here with no other idea than to take Nanjun?" Liu Bei said, "We heard you were going to take the place and came to assist. Should you not take it, then we will occupy it." Zhou Yu laughed, saying, "We of the South Land have long wished for this territory. Now that it is within our grasp, we naturally shall take it." Liu Bei said, "There is always some uncertainty. Cao Cao left Cao Ren to guard the region, and you may be certain that there is good strategy behind Cao Ren, to say nothing of his boldness as a warrior. I fear you may not get it." "Well, if we do not take it then, Sir, you may have it," said Zhou Yu. "Here are witnesses to your words," said Liu Bei, naming Lu Su, Zhuge Liang, and those at table. "I hope you will never repent what you have just said."
