the terrible warrior at Dangyang;

In the days of old lived the brave Zhao Yun,

Who fought in the battlefield for his lord in danger.

Having thus fought his way out of the press, Zhao Yun lost no time in getting away from the battle field. His white battle robe was soaked in blood.

On his way, near the rise of the hills, he met with two other bodies of troops under two brothers, Zhong Jin and Zhong Shen. One of these was armed with a massive ax, the other a halberd. As soon as they saw Zhao Yun, they knew him and shouted, “Quickly dismount and be bound!”

He has only escaped from the tiger cave,

To risk the dragon pool's sounding wave.

How Zhao Yun escaped will be next related.
