章节摘录

　　Which soon turn tail and backwards flee.　　I'm Huang Te-Kung， also named Hu-san， well known for bravery， my loyal heart is filled with indignation. I swear to recover the wide expanse oflostland for Emperor Hungkuang， but regretfully， the two generals Liu have yet made no contribution， and General Tso poses a great threat. Now I've received the martial orders of Minister of the Army Yuan， summoning me to station my army at Panchi to intercept General Tso's troops. This task is not to be trified with. （Calling.　Where's my general Tien Hsiung?　　Tien： Here.　　Huang： Immediately tell the three forces to wait for my orders. （Thesoldiers stand in battle array and shout. Huang sings.）　　The chieftain of rebels dare His majesty defy，　　The mob of bandits obey not command of the Emperor，　　The Sovereign is fragile and weak， pale in colour，　　The courtiers struggle fierce for position high.　　I alone am left at the river to look forth　　And guard against the galloping steeds from north，　　When news comes that towering ships have reached the estuary.　　The wamors with no fears，　　Over the upper stream the banners wildly fiy;　　The rapiers and spears，　　Over the downward flow the smoking fiames rise high.　　（Huang's soldiers mount the tower. Tso's soldiers in white uniform with wlute banners in their hands shout on the ships. Huang's soldiers shoot at them， they in defeat retreat， and Huang's soldiers rush down in pursuit.）　　Tso： （Sitting in the ship， in white armour and helmet， singing.）　　The tyrannic king takes revenge for courtiers vile，　　The viaous courtiers fawn upon the monarch imbecile;　　The turncoat officials bow low to the enemy reign，　　The bastard generals swear allegiance to the evil sovereign，　　To His majesty in heaven a loyal heart I bare，　　To rescue the crown prince in haste is my care，　　Though an infamy of a myriad years I may bear.　　……
