The Original Text, Translation and Appreciation of Cao Gui's Debate Translation.
Cao Gui's dispute is translated as follows:

In the spring of ten years, the army of Qi attacked our country of Lu.

In the spring of the tenth year of Duke Zhuang of Lu, the Qi army attacked Lu.

Male will play, Cao Gui, please see.

Cao Gui invited Duke Zhuang of Lu to see him.

His fellow countryman said, "People in power will plan this. Why do you want to participate?" ? "

His fellow countryman said, "People in power will plan their own wars. Why do you take part?"

"Those in power are short-sighted and unable to think deeply," Cao Gui said. "

Cao Gui said: "Those in power are short-sighted, so they can't think ahead."

Then they went to the court to see the duke.

So he went to North Korea to see Duke Zhuang of Lu.

"What are you fighting for?" Cao Gui asked. "

Cao Gui asked, "What are you fighting for?"

Duke Zhuang said, "I have never dared to know about food and clothing, but I will give it to my officials."

Duke Zhuang of Lu said, "Food and clothing are our livelihood, and we can't have them for ourselves. We must give them to people around us."

Yes, I said, "Xiao En doesn't repeat, but people are obedient."

Cao Gui replied: "These small favors can't spread all over the people, and the people won't listen to you."

Duke Zhuang said, "I never dare to exaggerate the number of pigs, sheep, jade articles, silks, etc. for sacrifice. I must tell God the truth."

Duke Zhuang of Lu said, "I (absolutely) dare to falsely report the number of cattle, sheep, jade and silk sacrificed to the gods, and I will keep my word."

Cao Gui said: "Mix's credit cannot be trusted by the gods, and the gods will not bless you." . "

Cao Gui said, "This is just a small contribution. If you can't convince God, they won't bless you. "

Zhuang Gong said: "Even if you can't see all the lawsuits in Mix, I must be based on facts."

Lu Zhuanggong said: "Although we can't understand all the cases clearly, we should handle them reasonably."

Cao Gui replied, "This is what you can do. You can have a fight. " . If you fight, let me follow you. "

Cao Gui replied: "This has completed my task, and we can fight a war under this condition. If you fight, please allow me to go with you. "

On that day, Qi Huangong and Cao Gui sat in a chariot and fought with Qi Jun in Beidou.

Duke Zhuang of Lu and he * * * sat in a chariot and fought the Qi army in the ladle.

Zhuang Gongzheng wants to order drums.

Duke Zhuang of Lu will order drums to advance.

"Not now," said Cao Gui. "

Cao Gui said, "Not now."

Wait until Qi Jun hits the drums three times.

After the Qi army beat the drums three times.

Cao Gui said, "You can play the drums." . "

Cao Gui said, "You can beat the drums."

Qi Jun was completely defeated.

The Qi army was defeated.

Their duke ordered the horse to be chased by the horse.

Duke Zhuang of Lu wanted to order horseback riding to chase the Qi army.

Said, "impossible."

Cao Gui said, "Not yet."

Then he got out of the chariot, looked at the tracks of Qi Jun's wheels, climbed into the chariot, supported the front railing of the chariot and looked at Qi Jun's formation, saying, "We can pursue." . "

After that, I looked down at the marks left by the wheels of the Qi army, boarded the chariot, and supported the crossbar in front of the car to see the formation of the Qi army. I just said, "We can pursue it."

So, the pursuit of Qi Jun was pursued.

So he chased the qi army.

After winning, the king asked him why he won.

After defeating the Qi army, Duke Zhuang of Lu asked him why he did it.

He said: "It takes courage to fight. High spirits, then decline, three exhausted. I am tired, I am surplus, so I will overcome it. Great powers are unpredictable and frightening. I regard it as chaos and look at its flag, so I chase it. "

Cao Gui replied, "Fighting depends on courage. Playing drums for the first time can boost morale. After the second drum beat, the morale of soldiers began to decline, and after the third drum beat, they were even more exhausted. Their morale was gone, and our army was full of morale, so we defeated them. In a big country like Qi, it is difficult to speculate on their situation, for fear that they will set an ambush. I saw the traces of their wheels scattered and the flags fell, so I decided to chase them. "
