Chapter 53 gathers the feudal lord 第53章合诸侯 After more than one year of engaging in fierce battle, feudal lord allied armies in Yan Country thorough defeated mountain Rong, northeast Yan Country, the wilderness and boundless forest of big piece become the Qi Country territory. 经过一年多的鏖战,诸侯联军在燕国彻底的打败了山戎,燕国东北部,大片的荒原、林海都成为了齐国的领土。 Moreover this mountain Rong was beheaded over 100,000, basically Yan Country within 20 years was not worried that mountain Rong invaded again. 而且这一次山戎被斩首超过十万,基本上燕国二十年之内都不担心山戎再次入侵了。 When 20 years later, if Yan Country was unable to defeat mountain Rong, that was really the waste. 等到二十年后,若是燕国还不能战胜山戎,那就实在是太废物了。 Especially Lü Xiaobai saw the land that these overcome newly, does not have any delivers, moreover together administrative enclave, therefore generous donated completely Yan Country these lands. 尤其是吕小白见到这些新打下的土地,没有什么产出,而且还是一块飞地,于是慷慨的将这些土地全部赠予了燕国。 Marquis of Yan must kneel down to Lü Xiaobai simply directly, he shakes the hand of Lü Xiaobai not to loosen, in the eye contains the lacrimal: „ Marquis of Qi, your benevolence to the Yan Country, I really does not know that this/should thanked. 燕侯简直要给吕小白直接跪下了,他握着吕小白的手不松开,眼中含泪道:“齐侯,您对燕国的恩情,我实在是不知道该如此感谢。 However received the kindness, actually does not repay, this is not the gentleman should do. 但是受到了恩惠,却不报答,这不是君子应该做的。 Four years ago, Qu Country was once impolite to you. 四年前,曲国曾经对您无礼。 You virtuous person, then does not have the person of virtue to you impolitely, should be crusaded against! 您是有德行的人,对您无礼便是无德之人,理应被讨伐！ Two years ago, you make treaties of alliance in the dark green wing, Qu Country has not participated, these makes treaties of alliance in Yan Country time, Qu Country has not participated. 两年前,您在苍翼召开会盟,曲国没有参加,这一次在燕国会盟,曲国还是没有参加。 This does not respect Son of Heaven, should by the disciplinary punishment. 这是不尊奉天子,是应该被惩戒的。 Now you relieved mountain Rong's threat for me, but also bestows I 500 li (0.5 km) land. 现在您为我解除了山戎的威胁,还赠送我五百里的土地。 I do not know how should repay, then leads the Yan Country army to crusade against Qu Country, making bent/tune Monarch apologize to your front. 我不知道应该如何报答,便率领燕国大军讨伐曲国,让曲君到您的面前道歉。 This can repay your benevolence slightly. ” 想必这样可以稍微报答一下您的恩情了。” On said that is really a tasteful person! 上道啊,真是个讲究人！ Heard the Marquis of Yan words, the Lü Xiaobai mouth must smile split, a marquis of Ji, crusaded against another feudal lord for him on own initiative, how can this make him not feel inspired? 听到燕侯的话,吕小白嘴都要笑得裂开了,一个姬姓的侯爵,主动为他讨伐另外一个诸侯,这怎么能让他不感到振奋呢？ In the past 400 years, this was the Son of Heaven special-purpose excuse, now Marquis of Yan uses on Lü Xiaobai, satisfied his vanity enormously. 在过去的400年里,这都是天子专用借口,现在燕侯用在吕小白身上,极大的满足了他的虚荣心。 Moreover can also show his power and influence before the feudal lord. 而且也能在诸侯面前彰显他的威势。 Therefore Marquis of Yan is leading the Yan Country army and Qi Country besieges Qu Country together, the Han marquis and in Marquis of Xing heart clear, after their both countries, requests Qi Country to help them resist Di people. 于是燕侯就率领着燕国的军队和齐国共同围攻曲国,邯侯、邢侯心中清楚,他们两国之后也要求齐国帮助他们抵御狄人。 Now sacrificed Qu Country, Count of Qu also wants very much. 现在牺牲一下曲国,想必曲伯也是很愿意的。 Therefore two people in abundance righteousness expression: „Marquis of Qi, you are the feudal lord hegemon, impolitely is impolite to us to you, therefore hopes that you can agree, we also crusade against Qu Country for you.” 所以两人纷纷义正言辞道:“齐侯,您是诸侯盟主,对您无礼就是对我们无礼,所以希望您能同意,我们也为您讨伐曲国。” The Qu Country monarch has a dream cannot think, because a five years ago wild talk, was treated as to flatter the Marquis of Qi tool by Yan Country and Han country and Xing Guo. 曲国国君做梦也想不到因为五年前的一句妄言,就被燕国、邯国、邢国当做讨好齐侯的工具。 Regarding these obvious attachment behaviors, Lü Xiaobai naturally agreed. 对于这些明显的依附行为,吕小白自然非常同意。 Therefore when in March of next year, is the spring sowing, four countries jointly organized 30,000 troops, attacks Qu Country. 于是来年三月,正是春种之时,四国就共同组织了三万人马,进攻曲国。 Like this not only does not delay the domestic spring sowing, and can force Qu Country to submit. 这样既不耽误国内春种,又能迫使曲国屈服。 In Qu Country, facing the attacks of four Country Allied armies, monarch Count of Qu is afraid very much. 曲国之中,面对四国联军的进攻,国君曲伯很是害怕。 Shouted hastily the high-ranking court official minister, asked: „Ministers, Qi Country leads four Country Allied armies to come to attack, crushed stone so many on their army sandbank, the Qu Country army are not likely many, now has the brilliant plan that what repels the enemy?” 连忙将公卿大臣纷纷喊来,问道:“众卿,齐国率领四国联军前来攻打,他们的军队像河滩上的碎石那么多,曲国的军队却不多,现在有什么退敌的良策吗？” Brilliant plan? 良策？ Opposite 30,000 elite, chariot 1000, Qu Country all combat tanks are also over a hundred, doesn't the army over 20,000, how this hit? 对面三万精锐,战车一千辆,曲国所有的战车也就是上百辆而已,军队不超过两万,这怎么打？ both sides exhibit the formation, opposite wave of charge, was annihilated directly. 双方摆开阵型,对面一波冲锋,直接全军覆没了。 Initially was yourself drinks has not managed to be quiet, finally had today's disaster, without the channel, has tied up you gave Marquis of Qi handling. 当初是你自己喝了酒没管住嘴,结果有了今天的祸事,若不是没有渠道,早就把你绑了交给齐侯处置了。 Among rulers and ministers you have a look at me, I have a look at you. 君臣之间你看看我,我看看伱。 Finally Cao senior official stand said: „ Monarch. 最终还是曹大夫站出来说道:“国君。 Four Country Allied armies crusade against our country on the grounds of your impolite, you can submit a written statement to the argument, said that always respects about Qi Country, is willing to participate in making treaties of alliance of Qi Country. 四国联军以您无礼为由讨伐我国,您可以上书辩解,说一向对齐国尊重,愿意参与齐国的会盟。 Moreover again by Qi Country and Qu Country border 200 li (0.5 km) land cession, this can subside the Marquis of Qi anger. ” 另外再以齐国与曲国边境两百里的土地割让,想必这样就能平息齐侯的怒火了。” 200 li (0.5 km) fertile land, this is not Lü Xiaobai gives a Marquis of Yan 500 li (0.5 km) open land to compare. 两百里的肥沃土地,这可不是吕小白送给燕侯的五百里荒地能相比的。 „Cession land?” Count of Qu somewhat hesitates, „these lands are all previous late monarch laborious seize from the Mán and Yi hand, how this solitary one can surrender something submissively like this?” “割让土地？”曲伯有些犹豫,“这些土地都是历代先君辛辛苦苦从蛮夷手中夺来的,孤又怎么能够就这样拱手让人呢？” In fact present feudal lord each sybaritism, where can understand difficulty that the ancestor develops. 实际上现在的诸侯各个骄奢淫逸,哪里能理解先祖开拓的艰辛。 Count of Qu does not give up the land purely, after all each land can his many payment of taxes, have the payment of taxes to be able better enjoyment. 曲伯就是单纯舍不得土地,毕竟每一块土地都能给他不少的赋税,有了赋税才能更好的享受。 Cao senior official understands that the Count of Qu thoughts, in the heart despise secretly, but Count of Qu lifted own ancestor, made him urge as the morals of official: „ Monarch. 曹大夫明白曲伯的心思,心中暗自鄙视,但曲伯抬出了自己的祖宗,作为臣子的道德还是让他劝道:“国君。 The retainer of feudal official did business to Ju Country in last month, heard a matter. 臣的家臣上个月到莒国之中做生意,听到了一个事情。 In Ju Country has a hunting household who is good at going hunting to be called the corner/horn, he climbs mountains to go hunting killed a majestic deer, is not only the meat quantity are many, but also the fur/superficial knowledge is beautiful, is very precious, he was very happy. 莒国之中有个擅长打猎的猎户叫做角,他上山打猎的时候杀死了一只雄壮的鹿,不仅仅是肉量多,而且皮毛美丽,很是贵重,他很高兴。 On road that in dragging the deer is descending the mountain, he saw a rabbit, therefore puts down the deer, pursues that rabbit, finally the rabbit has not pursued, comes back the discovery deer also disappears. 在拖着鹿下山的路上,他又看到了一只兔子,于是就放下鹿,去追那只兔子,结果兔子没有追到,回来的时候发现鹿也不见了。 How do you feel his behavior? ” 您觉得他的行为如何呢？” Count of Qu said: „Naturally is unwise.” 曲伯道:“自然是不明智的。” Cao senior official said with a smile: „ Yes, the deer is the big prey, can receive in exchange whole family for a long time grain ration. 曹大夫笑道:“是啊,鹿是大的猎物,能换回一家人许久的口粮。 The rabbit is the small prey, is only eating, because small lost greatly, it can be said that is very unwise. 兔子是小的猎物,只是一顿的饱餐罢了,因为小的丢了大的,可以说是很不明智了。 Now 200 li (0.5 km) land is the small thing, the Qu Country ancestral temple state is the big thing. 现在两百里的土地就是小的东西,曲国的宗庙社稷则是大的东西。 Now you do not give up 200 li (0.5 km) land, when the time comes Marquis of Qi gets angry, the Qu Country ancestral temple tilts, even the remaining lands did not have, when the time comes the sacrificial offering ancestors cannot even achieve. ” 现在您舍不得两百里的土地,到时候齐侯发怒,曲国的宗庙倾覆,连剩下的土地也没有了,到时候连祭祀先祖都做不到。” The words, Count of Qu did not have the means at this point clearly, sighed however sighed: „ Cao senior official, what you said is correct. 话说到这里,曲伯明白没有办法了,喟然叹道:“曹大夫,您说的是正确的。 This solitary one does not dare to be the criminal who cedes the ancestor land, but also please in the arriving in full military compound go abroad on a diplomatic mission, stated clearly the Qu Country attitude. ” 孤不敢做割让祖宗土地的罪人,还请您到齐军营中出使,言明曲国的态度。” Lü Xiaobai these years under Guan Zhong's control, have not seemed like beforehand such, if six years ago, he decides however must dispatch troops to teach Qu Country. 吕小白这些年在管仲的管束之下,已经不像是以前那样,若是六年前,他定然要出兵教训曲国。 However now Qu Country, since the direct indemnity cedes territory, the apology forms an alliance, was he demonstrates, the time of welldoing to the feudal lord now magnanimously. 但是现在曲国既然直接赔款割地,道歉结盟,那么现在就是他向诸侯展示大度、德行的时间了。 „ Count of Qu, since knows wrong, then must submit a written statement to Son of Heaven surely immediately, acknowledged own mistake. “曲伯既然知错,那么定要立刻向天子上书,承认自己的错误。 The this solitary one must make treaties of alliance this year again, to welcome Count of Qu joins union, then the suburb in Qu Country capital city is held to make treaties of alliance. 孤要在今年再次举行会盟,为了欢迎曲伯入盟,便在曲国都城的郊外举行会盟吧。 Cao senior official goes back to inform Count of Qu, three months, must construct at the appointed time surely the making treaties of alliance stage, by doing so, the feudal lord can feel the Count of Qu sincerity. ” 曹大夫回去告知曲伯,三个月的时间,到时定要将会盟的高台建好,这样做,想必诸侯就能感受到曲伯的诚意了。” Makes treaties of alliance outside a various Marquisate national capital, this is thorough became the dependency. 在一个诸侯国的国都外面举行会盟,这算是彻彻底底的成为附庸了。 However Count of Qu ceded territory and paid indemnities this matter to do continually, making treaties of alliance not to lose face. 但是曲伯连割地赔款这种事情都干了,会盟也就没那么丢人了。 Cao senior official sees Lü Xiaobai not to set other harsh requests, even somewhat was happy, the price that Qu Country pays can endure. 曹大夫见吕小白没提出其他苛刻的要求,甚至还有些高兴,曲国付出的代价还是能够忍受的。 Lü Xiaobai forgave the Count of Qu behavior magnanimously, making the feudal lords think that he is a gentleman, is trustworthy, therefore responded this making treaties of alliance time. 吕小白大度的原谅了曲伯的行为,让诸侯们都认为他是一个君子,值得信任,于是纷纷响应这一次的会盟。 Making treaties of alliance in tune county, come is not only Qu Country, other small countries, even Young Master Song Country also arrives personally. 在曲邑的会盟,前来的不仅仅是曲国,还有一些其他的小国,甚至就连宋国公子也亲自到场。 Reason that Duke of Song has not arrived is because present Song Country does not have the monarch, the young master attached one and his uncle Kuang Fu two people are competing for Song Jun's position, hit being heavily engaged. 之所以宋公没到是因为现在宋国没有国君,公子附一和他的叔叔况父两个人在争夺宋君的位置,打的不可开交。 The Zhou Royal Family potential is weak, oneself interior is one pile of matters, does not want to participate in Song Country this type is also in the internal strife of great nation. 周王室势弱,自己内部都是一堆的事,根本不想参与到宋国这种还算是大国的内部纷争之中。 Therefore after the previous monarch dies, even the monarchs have not conferred rank and title, is only thinking and other Song Country fired off, confers the victor as the monarchy again. 于是在上一任国君薨后,连国君都没有册封,只想着等宋国打完了,再册封胜利者作为君主。 Son of Heaven is not willing to fulfill own responsibility, therefore the young master attaches one to arrive at the place of making treaties of alliance, hoping Lü Xiaobai can uphold the justice for him. 天子不愿意履行自己的责任,于是公子附一就来到会盟之地,希望吕小白能够为他主持公道。 „ Marquis of Qi, I heard in Song Country, you when the dark green wing makes treaties of alliance, summoning the feudal lord must honor the emperor and repel the barbarians, maintains the clanlaw fundamental principle, this is Way of the King that the uncrowned king advocates. “齐侯,我在宋国的时候就听说,您在苍翼会盟时,号召诸侯要尊王攘夷,维护宗法纲纪,这是素王所倡导的王道啊。 Although Song Country is the Yin Shang descendant, is actually respecting tradition of Zhou. 宋国虽然是殷商的后裔,却始终尊奉着周礼。 Because you Yan Country encountered mountain Rong's invasion, therefore leads the feudal lord to aid Yan Country, because Qu Country does not respect the summons of Son of Heaven, dispatches troops to crusade against, does what has said that such personal character is worth everyone respecting. 您因为燕国遭到了山戎的侵扰,于是率领着诸侯援助燕国,又因为曲国不尊奉天子的号召,出兵讨伐,言出必行,这样的品德是值得所有人倾佩的。 King Wu once wanted to pass to the uncrowned king the throne, the uncrowned king said, the elder brother has the heir, actually passes to the younger brother the throne, isn't this root that courts disaster? 武王曾经想要将王位传给素王,素王说,兄长有子嗣,却将王位传给弟弟,这难道不是取祸的根源吗？ Now my uncle actually wants to rob to belong to my Monarch position, this is to trampling of patriarchal system, can you tolerate? 现在我的叔叔却想要抢夺走属于我的君位,这是对宗法制度的践踏啊,难道您能容忍吗？ If you are willing to help me obtain the Song Country Monarch position, I am willing to imitate Count of Qu, offers a Song Country 200 li (0.5 km) land to you, this is the noble hegemon should obtain. 如果您愿意帮助我获得宋国的君位,我愿意效仿曲伯,向您献上宋国的两百里土地,这是品德高尚的盟主应该得到的。 I to your admiration, this can express. ” 我对您的钦佩,想必这样可以表达了。” Should the hegemons obtain? 盟主应该得到的？ The young master attached one is first says. 公子附一是第一个这么说的。 Among the prestige in the world feudal lords, even more huge alliance force, the Song Country friendship and advantage, Song Country is not Qu Country this small country. 在天下诸侯之间的威望,愈发庞大的联盟力量,还有宋国的友谊和实打实的好处,宋国可不是曲国这种小国。 Only by the land area, Qi Country of before Song Country annexing Weed Yi country is bigger. 单论土地面积,宋国比吞并莱夷国之前的齐国还要大。 Attaches a request regarding the young master, the Lü Xiaobai sincere say/way: „ Young Master Song Country, your bitter experience is worth sympathizing. 对于公子附一的请求,吕小白正色道:“宋国公子,你的遭遇是值得同情的。 Qi Country initially Lü Wujiu misgovernment time, Hou Jianggu delivers returning to homeland, Various Countries of Xia should maintain the tradition of this mutually help. 齐国当初吕无咎乱政的时候,正是洛侯将孤送回国,诸夏列国应该保持这种互相帮助的传统。 You first stay here, the making treaties of alliance feudal lord thinks that will agree. ” 你就先在这里住下,会盟诸侯想必是会同意的。” When Lü Xiaobai attaches a bitter experience to mention Young Master Song Country, the people are really filled with righteous indignation, thinks that Kuang Fu should not rob nephew's Monarch position. 等到吕小白将宋国公子附一的遭遇讲出,众人果然义愤填膺,认为况父不应该抢夺自己侄子的君位。 Therefore 15 country feudal lords, total 70,000 armies, 3000 combat tanks on enormous and powerful is stationed in the Song Country north and East. 于是十五国诸侯,共计七万大军,三千辆战车就浩浩荡荡的在宋国的北方和东方驻扎。 Kuang Fu does not have to think own nephew is so unexpectedly shameless, under Monarch position for seizing, actually leads the bystander to come directly, he does not believe Marquis of Qi will help own nephew in vain. 况父没想到自己侄子居然这么无耻,为了夺下君位,竟然直接带着外人来,他可不相信齐侯会白白的帮助自己的这个侄子。 Qi Country is not Luo Country, to maintain the clanlaw can pay all. 齐国又不是洛国,为了维护宗法能够付出一切。 These please move Marquis of Qi to dispatch troops time, decides however promised many advantage, this makes him hate the tooth to be itchy, the straight say/way is too shameless, actually he regretted that very much, he gets the winning side, so long as first step surrenders to Marquis of Qi, will not have these things to happen, kneeling too causes the present matter to happen slowly. 这一次请动齐侯出兵,定然是许下了很多的好处,这让他恨得牙痒痒,直道太无耻,其实他心里是很后悔的,本来他占据着上风,只要先一步向齐侯投诚,根本不会有这些事情发生,跪的太慢导致了现在的事情发生。 However now says that anything , the Qi Country main strength threatened the border late, is impossible to be without a fight, must always spell. 但是现在说什么也晚了,齐国大兵压境,不可能束手就擒,总是要拼一把。 Regarding this war, can only say that a praying mantis arm works as the car(riage)! 对于这一场战争,只能说一句螳臂当车！ Allied armies easily accomplished defeated the Kuang Fu army, Kuang Fu led the trusted subordinate to flee to Zheng Country. 联军摧枯拉朽的击败了况父的军队,况父带着亲信逃往了郑国。 Then the young master attaches gives Marquis of Zheng to write a letter. 然后公子附一给郑侯写了一封信。 „ Marquis of Zheng, Kuang Fu, although competes for Monarch position with me, but he is my uncle, if kills him, my father will be sad, I do this am unfilial, therefore I do not kill him in Song Country. “郑侯,况父虽然与我争夺君位,但他是我的叔叔,如果杀死他,我的父亲可能会伤心,我这样做是不孝的,所以我不在宋国杀死他。 Requested that you kill him in Zheng Country, do not make him return to Song Country to come, such father cannot see his corpse, will not be sad, this is can do as the loyal son. ” 请求您在郑国杀死他,不要让他回到宋国来,这样父亲见不到他的尸体,就不会伤心了,这是作为孝子所能做的。” Marquis of Zheng receives this letter/believes time, then gives the letter/believes about watches, but also asked how should do. 郑侯收到这封信的时候,便将信交给左右观看,还问应该如何做。 „Monarch, Marquis of Qi very explicit must support the young master to attach takes a seat, takes the dependency Song Country, if we do not kill Kuang Fu, possibly by Marquis of Qi is thought is to compete for the Song Country power, Qi Country is now tyrannical, enraging him is unwise.” “国君,齐侯很明确的要支持公子附一即位,将宋国作为附庸,如果我们不杀况父,可能会被齐侯认为是想要争夺宋国的权力,齐国现在强横,激怒他是不明智的。” Hears this saying, Marquis of Zheng is somewhat unhappy, this did not indicate that he did fear Marquis of Qi? 听到这话,郑侯有些不快,这不是表明他怕了齐侯吗？ „ Qi Country, although is strong, but Zheng Country has the strengthening of the armed forces, does not fear his. “齐国虽强,但郑国有强军,是不惧怕他的。 Makes the Zheng Country soldier bleed because of Kuang Fu, this is incorrect. 但是因为况父而让郑国的士兵去流血,这是不对的。 The monarchs you can reply in writing saying that Kuang Fu robs nephew's Monarch position, should be punished. 国君您可以回信说,况父抢夺侄子的君位,应该被惩罚。 Attaches a filial piety for the young master, you are willing to kill Kuang Fu for him. 为了公子附一的孝心,您愿意为他杀死况父。 Like this young master attaches however will certainly thank you, Zheng Country does not need to make war with Qi Country. ” 这样公子附一定然会感激您,郑国也不需要和齐国开战了。” What is called the language the art? 什么叫做语言的艺术？ The similar goal, this saying said makes Marquis of Zheng feel very comfortable, therefore the agreement killed Kuang Fu joyfully. 同样的目的,这话说出来就让郑侯觉得非常舒服,于是欣然同意杀死况父。 Kuang Fu also thinks that escapes can avoid die to the country that has not participated in making treaties of alliance, has not actually thought that the nephew is ruthless, Marquis of Zheng is false, finally lost the life in Zheng Country. 况父还以为逃到没有参与会盟的国家就能免于一死,却没想到侄子狠辣,郑侯虚伪,结果在郑国送了性命。 The Song Country envoy arrives in Zheng Country, saw the Kuang Fu corpse, satisfied nod, returned to Song Country. 宋国的使者来到郑国之中,见到了况父的尸体,满意的点点头,回到了宋国之中。 The Lü Xiaobai prestige after this matter, a level higher, as Song Country submits, Lü Xiaobai makes treaties of alliance when Song Country again, this is the fourth time, compares for the first time, has been no comparison between them. 吕小白的威望经过此事,更上一层楼,随着宋国归附,吕小白在宋国再次举行会盟,这是第四次,相比第一次时,已经不可同日而语了。 I felt that I was a little flamboyant, even the fable story can arrange, the origin of being penny-wise and pound foolish idiom, is created by me in this moment. 我感觉我有点牛逼了,连寓言故事都能编了,因小失大成语的由来,在这一刻由我创造。 Today 12,000, did not have, did not use. 今天一万二,没了,不用等了。 ( This chapter ends) (本章完)
