Chapter 018-09 눈알을 씹어삼키는 하후돈

25.卻說夏侯惇引軍前進,正與高順軍相遇,便挺槍出馬搦戰。高順迎敵。兩馬相交,戰有四五十合,高順抵敵不住,敗下陣來。惇縱馬追趕,順遶陣而走。惇不捨,亦遶陣追之。陣上曹性看見,暗地拈弓搭箭,覷得真切,一箭射去,正中夏侯惇左目,惇大叫一聲,急用手拔箭,不想連眼珠拔出;乃大呼曰:「父精母血,不可棄也!」遂納於口內啖之,仍復挺槍縱馬,直取曹性。性不及提防,早被一槍搠透面門,死於馬下。兩邊軍士見者,無不駭然。

26.夏侯惇既殺曹性,縱馬便回。高順從背後趕來,麾軍齊上,曹軍大敗。夏侯淵救護其兄而走。呂虔、李典將敗軍退去濟北下寨。高順得勝,引軍回擊玄德,恰好呂布大軍亦至。布與張遼、高順分兵三路,夾攻玄德、關、張三寨。正是:

啖睛猛將雖能戰,中箭先鋒難久持。

       [三國誌詩018-p01]

未知玄德勝負如何,且看下文分解。
 
 Now the division of Cao Cao's army under Xiahou Dun, having marched out in advance, first came into touch with Gao Shun. Xiahou Dun at once rode out with spear set and offered a challenge. It was accepted and the two leaders fought half a hundred bouts. Then Gao Shun began to weaken and had to turn back. He rode round to the rear of his array. Xiahou Dun was not the man to quail, so he followed right into the enemy's country. Then Cao Xing, one of Lu Bu's generals, secretly strung his bow, fitted an arrow and, when Xiahou Dun had come quite near, shot at him. The arrow hit Xiahou Dun full in the left eye. He shrieked, and putting up his head, pulled out the arrow and with it the eye.

 "Essence of my father, blood of my mother, I cannot throw this away!" cried Xiahou Dun, and he put the eye into his mouth and swallowed it.

 Then resuming his firm grip of his spear, Xiahou Dun went after this new enemy. There was no escape for Cao Xing. He was overtaken and fell with a fatal spear wound full in the face. Both sides were stricken dumb with amazement.

 Having thus slain the man who had wounded him, Xiahou Dun rode back toward his own side. Gao Shun went in pursuit and, waving on his army, attacked so vigorously that he won the day. Xiahou Yuan defended for his elder brother as they fled. Lu Qian and Li Dian led various divisions back to Jibei and made a camp.

 Gao Shun, having scored this victory, returned to attack Liu Bei; and as Lu Bu opportunely arrived with Zhang Liao, these three arranged their forces so that each attacked one of the brothers.

  Dauntless was Xiahou Dun, that warrior bold, 
His courage had been proved of old; 
But smitten sore one hapless day, 
He might not in the battle stay.

 The fate of Liu Bei will be told in the next chapter.
