《资治通鉴·秦纪·秦纪三》
赵高以前曾多次说 关东的盗贼成不了大事 ，待到项羽俘获王离等人,而章邯等人的军队也多次被打败，赵高才上书请求增兵援助。
高前数言 关东盗无能为也 ，及项羽虏王离等，而章邯等军数败，上书请益助。
In the past, Zhao Gao had often said that "The bandits east of Jianguan will not achieve anything important" However when, Xiang Yu captured Wang Li et al., and the armies led by Zhang Han et al. were defeated several times, Zhao Gao finally submitted a memorial requesting reinforcements to provide assistance.
