Abstract
Translator’s summary: A large allied army, including a contingent from Lu but apparently led by Jin, defeats Qi at the battle of An, with Qi grand officers nonetheless acquitting themselves honorably during the battle itself and during the subsequent negotiations. Qi seems to be crippled as a great power. Later in the chapter are copious references to the Eldest Daughter of Lu, designed to highlight her merit, which will be demonstrated much later.
