赤烏五年,征柤中,〈《襄陽記》曰:柤音如租稅之租。柤中在上黃界,去襄陽一百五十里。魏時夷王梅敷兄弟三人,部曲萬餘家屯此,分布在中廬宜城西山鄢、沔二谷中,土地平敞,宜桑麻,有水陸良田,沔南之膏腴沃壤,謂之柤中。〉魏將蒲忠、胡質各將數千人,忠要遮險隘。圖斷然後,質為忠繼援。時然所督兵將先四出,聞問不暇收合,便將帳下見兵八百人逆掩。忠戰不利,質等皆退。〈〈孫氏異同評曰:〔魏書〕及《江表傳》云,然以景初元年、正始二年再出為寇,所破胡質、蒲忠在景初元年。魏志承魏書,依違不說質等為然所破,而直云然退耳。吳志說赤烏五年,於魏為正始三年,魏將蒲忠與朱然戰,忠不利,質等皆退。按魏少帝紀及孫權傳,是歲並無事,當是陳壽誤以吳嘉禾六年為赤烏五年耳。〉九年,復征柤中,魏將李興等聞然深入,率步騎六千斷然後道,然夜出逆之,軍以勝反。先是,歸義馬茂懷奸,覺誅,權深忿之。然臨行上疏曰:「馬茂小子,敢負恩養。臣今奉天威,事蒙克捷,欲令所獲,震耀遠近,方舟塞江,使足可觀,以解上下之忿。惟陛下識臣先言,責臣後效。」權時抑表不出。然既獻捷,群臣上賀,權乃舉酒作樂,而出然表曰:「此家前初有表,孤以為難必,今果如其言,可謂明於見事也。」遣使拜然為左大司馬、右軍師。
