《旧五代史·后梁·列传十三》
刘鄩挑出城中老弱病残以及妇女等消耗粮食而不能守城的百姓，全部放出城外，自己与将士们同甘共苦，分衣推食，以抗拒城外军队，约束部下，严禁暴虐，居民泰然平安。
鄩料简城中老疾及妇人浮食百姓不足与守者，悉出之于外，与将士同甘苦，分衣食，以抗外军，戢兵禁暴，居人泰然。

He sent them all out of the city and shared food and clothing with his soldiers to resist the army outside the city. He restrained his subordinates and strictly prohibited violence. The residents were safe and sound.
