《明史·列传·卷一百三十八》
马世龙请求先收复遵化，孙承宗说： 不行，遵化在北面，容易攻取而难于防守，不如暂且让敌人占领，分散敌人的兵力，我军应先进攻滦州。
世龙请先复遵化，承宗曰： 不然，遵在北，易取而难守，不如姑留之，以分其势，而先图滦。
 Mashi Long requested the first recovery of Zunhua,  and Sun Chengzong said, "No, Zunhua is in the north, easy to capture but difficult to defend, it is better to let the enemy occupy it for the time being and disperse the enemy's forces. Our army should advance to attack Luanzhou."
