卻說東吳丞相張悌，令左將軍沈瑩、右將軍諸葛靚，來迎晉兵。瑩謂靚曰：「上流

諸軍不作提防，吾料晉軍必至此，宜盡力以敵之。若幸得勝，江南自安。今渡江與戰，

不幸而敗，則大事去矣。」靚曰：「公言是也。」

言未畢，人報晉兵順流而下，勢不可當。二人大驚，慌來見張悌商議。靚謂悌曰：

「東吳危矣，何不遁去？」悌垂泣曰：「吳之將亡，賢愚共知；今若君臣皆降，無一人

死於國難，不亦辱乎？」諸葛靚亦垂泣而去。張悌與沈瑩揮兵抵敵，晉兵一齊圍之。周

旨首先殺入吳營，張悌獨奮力搏戰，死於亂軍之中。沈瑩被周旨所殺。吳兵四散敗走。

後人有詩讚張悌曰：

杜預巴山建大旗，江東張悌死忠時。已拼王氣南中盡，不忍偷生負所知。

卻說晉兵克了牛渚，深入吳境。王濬遣人馳報捷音。晉主炎聞知大喜，賈充奏曰：

「吾兵久勞於外，不服水土，必生疾病，宜召軍還，再作後圖。」張華曰：「今大兵已

入其巢，吳人膽落，不出一月，孫皓必擒矣。若輕召還，前功盡廢，誠可惜也。」晉主

未及應，賈充叱華曰：「汝不省天時地利，欲妄邀功勳，困弊士卒，雖斬汝不足以謝天

下！」炎曰：「此是朕意，華但與朕同耳，何必爭辯？」

忽報杜預馳表到。晉主視表，亦言宜急進兵之意。晉主遂不復疑，竟下征進之命。

王濬等奉了晉主之命，水陸並進，風雷鼓動，吳人望旗而降。吳主皓聞之，大驚失色。

諸臣告曰：「北兵日近，江南軍民不戰而降，將如之何？」皓曰：「何故不戰？」眾對

曰：「今日之禍，皆岑昏之罪，請陛下誅之。臣等出城決一死戰。」皓曰：「量一中貴

，何能誤國？」眾大叫曰：「陛下豈不見蜀之黃皓乎？」

遂不待吳主之命，一齊擁入宮中，碎割岑昏，生啖其肉。陶濬奏曰：「臣領戰船皆

小，願得二萬兵乘大船以戰，自足破之。」皓從其言，遂撥御林諸軍與陶濬上流迎敵。

前將軍張象，率水兵下江迎敵。二人部兵正行，不想西北風大起，吳兵旗幟，皆不能立

，盡倒豎於舟中；兵各不肯下船，四散奔走，只有張象數十軍待敵。

卻說晉將王濬，揚帆而行，過三山，舟師曰：「風波甚急，船不能行；且待風勢少

息行之。」濬大怒。拔劍叱之曰：「吾目下欲取石頭城，何言住耶！」遂擂鼓大進。吳

將張象引從軍請降。濬曰：「若是真降，便為前部立功。」象回本船，直至石頭城下，

叫開城門，接入晉兵。

孫皓聞晉兵入城，欲自刎。中書令胡沖，光祿勳薛瑩，奏曰：「陛下何不效安樂公

劉禪乎？」皓從之，亦輿櫬自縛，率諸文武，詣王濬軍前歸降。濬釋其縛，焚其櫬，以

王禮待之。唐人有詩歎曰：

王濬樓船下益州，金陵王氣黯然收。千尋鐵鎖沉江底，一片降旛出石頭。人世幾回

傷往事，山形依舊枕寒流。今逢四海為家日，故壘蕭蕭蘆狄秋。於是東吳四州八十三

郡，三百一十三縣，戶口五十二萬三千，軍吏三萬二千，兵二十三萬，男女老幼二百三

十萬，米榖二百八十萬斛，舟船五千餘艘，後宮五千餘人，皆歸大晉。大事已定，出榜

安民，盡封府庫倉廩。次日，陶濬兵不戰自潰。瑯琊王司馬（左人右由）并王戎大兵皆

至；見王濬成了大功，心中忻喜。次日，杜預亦至，大犒三軍，開倉賑濟吳民，於是吳

民安堵。惟有建平太守吳彥，拒城不下，聞吳亡乃降。

王濬上表報捷，朝廷聞吳已平，君臣皆賀上壽。晉主執杯流涕曰：「此羊太傅之功

也，惜其不親見之耳！」驃騎將軍孫秀退朝，向南面哭曰：「昔討逆壯年，以一校尉創

立基業，今孫皓舉江南而棄之，悠悠蒼天，此何人哉！」

卻說王濬班師還，吳主孫皓赴洛陽面君。皓登殿稽首以見晉帝。帝賜坐曰：「朕設

此座以待卿久矣。」皓對曰：「臣於南方，亦設此座以待陛下。」帝大笑。賈充問皓曰

：「聞君在南方，每鑿人眼目，剝人面皮，此何等刑耶？」皓曰：「人臣弒君及奸佞不

忠者，則加此刑耳。」充默然甚愧。帝封皓為歸命侯，子孫封中郎，隨降宰輔皆封列侯

。丞相張悌陣亡，封其子孫。封王濬為輔國大將軍。其餘各加封賞。

自此三國歸於晉帝司馬炎，為一統之基矣。此所謂「天下大勢，合久必分，分久必

合」者也。

後來後漢皇帝劉禪亡於晉太康七年，魏主曹奐亡於太康元年，吳主孫皓亡於太康四

年，皆善終。後人有古風一篇，以敘其事曰：

高祖提劍入咸陽，炎炎紅日升扶桑。光武龍興成大統，金烏飛上天中央。哀哉獻帝

紹海宇，紅輪西墜咸池傍！何進無謀中貴亂，涼州董卓居朝堂。王允定計誅逆黨，李傕

郭氾興刀槍。四方盜賊如蟻聚，六合奸雄皆鷹揚。孫堅孫策起江左，袁紹袁術興河梁。

劉焉父子據巴蜀，劉表軍旅屯荊襄。張脩張魯霸南鄭，馬騰韓遂守西涼。陶謙張繡公孫

瓚，各逞雄才占一方。曹操專權居相府，牢籠英俊用文武。威震天子令諸侯，總領貔貅

鎮中土。樓桑玄德本皇孫，義結關張願扶主。東西奔走恨無家，將寡兵微作羈旅。南陽

三顧情可深，臥龍一見分寰宇。先取荊州後取川，霸業王圖在天府。嗚呼三載逝升遐，

白帝託孤堪痛楚！孔明六出祁山前，願以隻手將天補。何期歷數到此終，長星半夜落山

塢！姜維獨憑氣力高，九伐中原空劬勞。鍾會鄧艾分兵進，漢室江山盡屬曹。丕、叡、

芳、髦纔及奐，司馬又將天下交。受禪臺前雲霧起，石頭城下無波濤。陳留歸命與安樂

，王侯公爵從根苗。紛紛世事無窮盡，天數茫茫不可逃。鼎足三分已成夢，後人憑弔空

牢騷。

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable

effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread

public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm

collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic

works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain

"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or

corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual

property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a

computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by

your equipment.

of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project

the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a

refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity

providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to

receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy

is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further

opportunities to fix the problem.

1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth

warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.

If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the

law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be

interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by

the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any

provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.

trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone

providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance

work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any

Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of

electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers

including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists

because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from

people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the

assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's

goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will

remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project

Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure

and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg

Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide

spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of

increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be

freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest

array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations

($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt

status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating

charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United

States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a

considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up

with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations

where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To

SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any

particular state visit http://pglaf.org

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we

have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition

against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who

approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make

any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from

outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation

methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other

ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.

To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic

works.

Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm

concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared

with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project

Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed

editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.

unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily

keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:

http://www.gutenberg.org

This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,

including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary

Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to

subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
