《三國演義》計收姜維的故事--中國歷史故事中英對照
This is a story from the novel Three Kingdoms. Jiang Wei was adept（熟練的） with both pen and sword. He was not only a man of intelligence and bravery, but also a man of resources and astuteness（精明，機敏） . Zhuge Liang wanted to win Jiang Wei over to be his assistant. When he learned that Jiang Wei was a filial（孝順的） son whose mother was living in Jicheng City, he devised a plan to win him over. He ordered Wei Yan to attack Jicheng City by bluffing and blustering. As soon as Jiang Wei heard the news, he immediately led the troops to Jicheng City to save his mother. Zhuge Liang sent captured-general Xiahou Mao to Jicheng City to persuade Jiang Wei to surrender. When Xiahou Mao was only halfway there, he was told by people that Jiang Wei had already surrendered to the Shu State. Therefore Xiahou Mao had to go to Tianshuiguan. He came to the city of Tianshuiguan about Jiang Wei's surrender. In the middle of the night, Zhuge Liang asked somebody to dress up as Jiang Wei and attack Tianshuiguan. This made the officers and soldiers in the dity really believe that Jiang Wei's surrender to Shu State was true.
守衛(wèi)天水郡的魏國大將姜維，文武雙全智有勇有謀。諸葛亮想收姜維為自己的助手。他得知姜維是個孝子，其母住在冀城，便想出一條計策：命魏延虛張聲勢打冀城，姜維得知消息，便請兵殺回冀城救母。諸葛亮又派俘將夏侯杼木帶兵前往冀城勸姜維投降。夏侯懋走到半路，聽老百姓說姜維已獻城降蜀，他只好往天水郡來。夏侯懋進城，把姜維已投降蜀兵的消息告訴了天水郡守城官兵。深夜，諸葛亮讓人假扮姜維打天水郡。守城官兵更認定姜維降蜀是事實了。
Jiang Wei tried every possible means to protect Jicheng City, although he lacked the necessary army provisions. One day Jiang Wei led his soldiers to seize army provisions（食品，預(yù)備） . The soldiers of the Shu State took advantage of this and seized the city. Since Jiang Wei had lost the city, he could only run to Tianshuiguan. The generals and soldiers wouldn't let him into the city, because they mistakenly believed that he surrendered to the enemy. Jiang Wei had to go off into the wilderness. He went less than a few kilometers before Zhuge Liang came along in a carriage and his troops encircled Jiang Wei. Realizing he was trapped, he surrendered to Zhuge Liang.
姜維苦守冀城，糧草缺乏。一日帶兵劫糧，蜀兵乘虛取冀城。姜維失城只好向天水郡逃去。天水郡眾將，誤認姜維已經(jīng)投降，不準他進城。姜維無奈落荒而去。走不到數(shù)里，諸葛亮乘車而出，姜維見自己陷入重重包圍之中，便下馬投降了諸葛亮。
