《汉书·传·张冯汲郑传》
冯唐答道： 我听说上古时君王遣将出征，临行跪下推着车子，说： 国门以内的事我来决定，国门以外的事情将军决定；军功、爵位和赏赐都决定于将军，归来再奏朝廷，这不是空话啊。
唐对曰， 臣闻上古王者遣将也，跪而推毂，曰： 闑以内寡人制之，闑以外将军制之；军功爵赏，皆决于外，归而奏之。 此非空言也。
Feng Tang replied, "I have heard that in ancient times, when the monarch sent generals to go out to fight, he knelt on the ground and pushed the carriage before leaving, saying: I will decide the matters within the border, and the general will decide the matters outside the border; the military achievements, titles, and rewards will all be decided by the general, and when we return, we will report to the court. This is not empty talk."
