Thereupon　Gao　Ding　shouted；　〃The　soldiers　should　either　yield　or　be　slain！〃

And　they　yielded　in　a　body。

Gao　Ding　then　went　back　to　Zhuge　Liang　and　offered　the　head　of　the　man　just　slain。

Zhuge　Liang　laughed　again。　〃I　have　made　you　kill　both　these　as　a　proof　of　loyalty。〃

Then　he　created　Gao　Ding　Governor　of　Yizhou　and　chief　of　three　territories；　while　E　Huan　was　made　General。　Thus　the　three　rebel　divisions　were　disposed　of　and　troubled　the　peace　no　more。

Governor　Wang　Kang　of　Yongchang　then　came　out　of　the　city　and　weled　Zhuge　Liang。

When　Zhuge　Liang　had　made　his　entry　into　that　city；　he　called　Wang　Kang　and　asked；　〃Who　has　aided　you　in　the　defense　of　this　city？〃

The　Governor　said；　〃The　safety　of　this　city　is　due　entirely　to　Lu　Kai。〃

So　Lu　Kai　was　called。　He　came　and　bowed。

Zhuge　Liang　said；　〃Long　since　I　heard　of　you　as　a　remarkable　person　of　this　area。　We　are　greatly　indebted　to　you　for　its　safety。　Now　we　wish　to　conquer　the　Mangs。　Have　you　any　advice　to　offer？〃

Lu　Kai　then　produced　a　map　of　the　country　and　presented　it；　saying；　〃From　the　time　of　my　appointment；　I　have　felt　certain　that　the　southern　tribespeople　would　rise　against　you；　and　so　I　sent　secret　agents　to　map　out　the　country　and　find　the　strategic　points。　From　that　information　I　prepared　this　map；　which　I　call　The　Plan　to　Subdue　the　Mangs。　I　beg　you；　Sir；　to　accept　it；　as　it　may　be　of　use。〃

Zhuge　Liang　were　very　glad。　He　took　Lu　Kai　into　his　service　as　Adviser　and　Army　Guide。　With　Lu　Kais　help；　Zhuge　Liang　advanced　and　penetrated　deeply　into　the　country。

While　the　army　was　advancing；　there　came　a　messenger　from　the　court。　When　he　appeared；　Zhuge　Liang　saw　it　was　Ma　Su；　and　he　was　clothed　in　white。　He　was　in　mourning　for　his　brother；　Ma　Liang；　who　had　just　died。

He　said；　〃I　e　by　special　mand　of　the　Emperor　with　gifts　of　wine　and　silks　for　the　soldiers。〃

When　the　ceremonies　proper　on　receipt　of　a　mandate　from　the　Emperor　had　been　performed；　and　the　gifts　distributed　as　instructed；　Ma　Su　was　asked　to　remain　to　talk　over　matters。

Zhuge　Liang　said；　〃I　have　His　Majestys　mand　to　conquer　these　Mangs。　I　hear　you　have　some　advice　to　offer；　and　I　should　be　pleased　if　you　would　instruct　me。〃

〃Yes；　I　have　one　thing　to　say　that　may　be　worth　thinking　over。　These　people　refuse　to　recognize　our　supremacy；　because　they　think　their　country　is　distant　and　difficult。　If　you　should　overe　them　today；　tomorrow　they　would　revolt。　Wherever　your　army　marches；　they　are　overe　and　submit；　but　the　day　you　withdraw　the　army　and　attack　Cao　Pi；　they　will　renew　their　attack。　In　arms　even　it　is　best　to　attack　hearts　rather　than　cities；　to　fight　with　sentiment　is　better　than　to　fight　with　weapons。　It　will　be　well　if　you　can　win　them　over。〃

〃You　read　my　inmost　thoughts；〃　said　Zhuge　Liang。

Then　Ma　Su　was　retained　with　the　army　as　Adviser；　and　the　army　marched　on。

When　the　King　of　the　Mangs；　Meng　Huo；　heard　how　cleverly　Zhuge　Liang　had　got　rid　of　Yong　Kai；　he　called　together　the　leaders　of　the　〃Three　Ravines〃　to　discuss　matters。　The　chief　of　the　first　Ravine　was　Jinhua　Sanjie；　of　the　second　Dongtu　Na；　and　of　the　third　Ahui　Nan。

These　having　e　to　the　Kings　place；　he　said　to　them；　〃Zhuge　Liang　of　Shu　and　his　Grand　Army　has　invaded　our　country；　and　we　must　exert　our　united　strength　to　drive　out　the　invaders。　You　three　must　lead　your　forces；　and　whoever　conquers　the　enemy　shall　be　chief　of　chiefs。〃

It　was　arranged　that　Jinhua　Sanjie　should　march　in　the　center　division；　Dongtu　Na　on　the　left；　and　Ahui　Nan　on　the　right。　Each　division　was　fifty　thousand　tribesmen。

When　the　scouts　made　out　that　the　Mang　armies　were　ing；　they　at　once　told　Zhuge　Liang；　who　called　Zhao　Yun　and　Wei　Yan　to　his　side；　but　gave　them　no　orders。

Next　he　sent　for　Wang　Ping　and　Ma　Zheng；　and　said　to　them；　〃I　cannot　send　Zhao　Yun　and　Wei　Yan　against　the　Mangs　because　they　do　not　know　the　country。　You　two　are　to　go；　one　against　each　wing；　and　the　two　veteran　warriors　shall　support　you。　Get　your　troops　ready　and　start　tomorrow　at　dawn。〃

Wang　Ping　and　Ma　Zheng　took　the　orders　and　went　out。

Then　Zhang　Yi　and　Zhang　Ni　were　given　orders：　〃You　two　are　to　march　against　the　center　army。　You　are　to　act　with　Wang　Ping　and　Ma　Zheng　tomorrow。　I　want　to　send　Zhao　Yun　and　Wei　Yan；　but　I　am　still　afraid　they　do　not　know　the　country　well。〃

Zhang　Yi　and　Zhang　Ni　also　received　the　orders　and　went　out。

Zhao　Yun　and　Wei　Yan　now　began　to　feel　hurt。
