崇侯奉敕伐诸侯，智浅谋庸枉怨尤；
白昼调兵输战策，黄昏劫寨失前筹。
从来女色多亡国，自古权奸不到头；
岂是纣王求妲己，应知天意属东周。
话说崇侯虎父子带伤，奔走一夜，不胜困乏。急收聚败残人马，十停止存一停，俱是滞着重伤。侯虎一见众军，不胜感伤。黄济元转上前曰：‘君侯何故感叹？胜败军家常事，昨日偶未提防，误中奸计；君侯且将残兵暂行札住，可发一道催军文书，往西岐催西伯速调兵马前来，以便截战。一则添兵相助，二则可复今日之恨耳。不知君侯意下若何？’侯虎闻言沉吟曰：‘姬昌按兵不举，坐观成败，我今又去催他，反便宜了他一个违逆圣旨罪名。’正迟疑间，只听前边人马大队而来；崇侯虎不知何处人马，骇得魂不附体，魄绕空中。急自上马，望前看时；只见两杆 开处，见一将面如锅底，海下赤髯，两道白眉，眼如金铃，带九云烈焰飞兽冠，身穿锁子连环甲，大红袍，腰系白玉带，骑火眼金睛兽，用两柄湛金斧。此人乃崇侯虎兄弟崇黑虎也，官拜曹州侯。侯虎一见是亲弟黑虎，其心方安。黑虎曰：‘闻长兄兵败，特来相助；不意此地相逢，实为万幸！’崇应彪马上亦欠身称谢叔父：‘有劳远涉。’黑虎曰：‘小弟此来与长兄合兵，复往冀州，弟自有处。’彼时大家合兵一处，崇黑虎只有叁千飞虎兵在先，随後二万有馀人马，复到冀州城下安营。曹州兵在先，呐喊叫战。冀州报马飞报苏护：‘今有曹州崇黑虎兵至城下，请爷军令定夺。’苏护闻报，低头默默无语，半响乃言曰：‘黑虎武艺精通，晓畅玄理；满城诸将，皆非对手，如之奈何？’左右诸将听护之言，不知详细。只见长子全忠上前日：‘兵来将当，水来土掩，谅一崇黑虎，有何惧哉？’护曰：‘汝少年不谙事体，自负英雄；不知黑虎曾遇异人，传授道术，百万军中，取上将首级，如探囊中之物，不可轻视。’全忠大叫曰：‘父亲长他人锐气，灭自己威风，孩儿此去，不生擒黑虎，誓不回来见父亲之面！’护曰：‘汝自取败，勿生後悔。’全忠那里肯住，翻身上马，开放城门，一骑当先，厉声高叫：‘探马的，与我报进中军：‘叫崇黑虎与我打话！’’蓝 忙报与二位主帅得知：‘外有苏全忠讨战。’黑虎暗喜曰：‘吾此来：一则为长兄兵败，二则为苏护解围，以全吾友谊交情。’令左右备坐骑，即翻身来至军前，见全忠耀武扬威。黑虎曰：‘全忠贤侄！你可回去，请你父亲出来，我自有话说。’全忠乃幼年之人，不谙事体；又听父亲说黑虎枭勇，焉肯善回？乃大言曰：‘崇黑虎！我与你势成敌国；我父亲又与你论甚交情？速倒戈收军，饶你生命。不然，悔之晚矣！’黑虎大怒曰：‘小畜生！焉敢无礼。’举湛金斧劈面砍来，全忠将手中戟急架相迎，兽马相交，一场恶战。怎见得？
二将(jiang)(jiang)阵前寻斗赌(du)，两下交锋谁(shei)敢(gan)阻？这个(ge)似摇头狮子下山冈，那(nei)个(ge)如摆尾狻猊寻猛虎；这一个(ge)真(zhen)心要定锦乾坤，那(nei)一个(ge)实(shi)意(yi)欲(yu)把江山补。从来恶战几千番(fan)，不似将(jiang)(jiang)军(jun)真(zhen)英武。

‘舌辨悬河汇百川，方知川义与臣贤；
数行书转苏侯意，何用(yong)叁军眠枕戟？’
苏护送散宜生回西岐，与崇黑虎商议：‘姬伯之言甚善，可速整装，以便朝商；毋致迟疑，又生他议。’二人欣喜。不知其女若何？且看下回分解。
