《三国志·魏书·王卫二刘傅传》
但商议的人有人想要乘船径直渡江，在水面上排列开来；有人想要兵分四路，一起进攻吴国的城池；有人想要大规模屯田，观察形势再行动：这些都是攻取敌军的通常的办法。
而议者或欲汎舟径济，横行江表；或欲四道并进，攻其城垒；或欲大佃疆埸，观衅而动：诚皆取贼之常计也。
But some of the people in the discussion wanted to take a boat straight across the river and line up on the water; some wanted to divide their troops into four paths and attack the city of Wu together; some wanted to station the army in a large-scale way, and act when they observe the situation: these are all common methods of attacking the enemy army.
