《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪十七》
京兆尹赵广汉喜欢任用那些世代为吏者的子孙中刚开始在官府任职的年轻人，专门锻炼他们的强猛和锐气。他们办事雷厉风行，无所回避，大多有胆识，不知犹豫为难，但最终却因此而败亡。
赵广汉好用世吏子孙新进年少者，专厉强壮蜂气，见事风生，无所回避，率多果敢之计，莫为持难，终以此败。
Zhao Guang Han, Governor of Jingzhao, liked to employ young people from generations of officials who had just started working in the government, specifically to train them to be tough and aggressive. They acted swiftly and did not avoid anything, most of them were courageous and did not hesitate to be difficult, but in the end they died because of it.
