《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》 |
| 22 | 宴桃園豪... : | 時人有橋玄者，謂操曰：「天下將亂，非命世之才，不能濟。能安之者，其在君乎？」南陽何顒見操，言：「漢室將亡，安天下者，必此人也。」汝南許劭，有知人之名。操往見之，問曰：「我何如人？」劭不答。又問，劭曰：「子治世之能臣，亂世之奸雄也。」操聞言大喜。年二十，舉孝廉，為郎，除洛陽北都尉。初到任，即設五色棒十餘條於縣之四門。有犯禁者，不避豪貴，皆責之。中常侍蹇碩之叔，提刀夜行，操巡夜拏住，就棒責之。由是，內外莫敢犯者，威名頗震。後為頓丘令。因黃巾起，拜為騎都尉，引馬步軍五千，前來潁川助戰。正值張梁、張寶敗走，曹操攔住，大殺一陣，斬首萬餘級，奪得旗旛、金鼓馬匹極多。張梁、張寶死戰得脫。操見過皇甫嵩，朱雋，隨即引兵追襲張梁、張寶去了。 |
| Three Heroes Swear Brotherhood...: |
A man of the time named Qiao Xuan said to Cao Cao, "Rebellion is at hand, and only a man of the greatest ability can succeed in restoring tranquillity. That man is yourself." And He Yong of Nanyang said of him, "The dynasty of Han is about to fall. He who can restore peace is this man and only he." Cao Cao went to inquire his future of a wise man of Runan named Xu Shao. "What manner of man am I?" asked Cao Cao. The seer made no reply, and again and again Cao Cao pressed the question. Then Xu Shao replied, "In peace you are an able subject; in chaos you are a crafty hero!" Cao Cao greatly rejoiced to hear this. Cao Cao graduated at twenty and earned a reputation of piety and integrity. He began his career as Commanding Officer in a county within the Capital District. In the four gates of the city he guarded, he hung up clubs of various sorts, and he would punish any breach of the law whatever the rank of the offender. Now an uncle of Eunuch Jian Shuo was found one night in the streets with a sword and was arrested. In due course he was beaten. Thereafter no one dared to offend again, and Cao Cao's name became heard. Soon he became a magistrate of Dunqiu. At the outbreak of the Yellow Scarves, Cao Cao held the rank of General and was given command of five thousand horse and foot to help fight at Yingchuan. He just happened to fall in with the newly defeated rebels whom he cut to pieces. Thousands were slain and endless banners and drums and horses were captured, together with huge sums of money. However, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang got away; and after an interview with Huangfu Song, Cao Cao went in pursuit of them. |
