《明史·列传·卷一百》
请还给我浙东杀手、炮手各三千名，再募西北壮士，配备充足的骑兵部队五支，步兵十支，听我专门训练，军中所需诸物，随时供应，这是我最大的心愿。 
愿更予臣浙东杀手、炮手各三千，再募西北壮士，足马军五枝，步军十枝，专听臣训练，军中所需，随宜取给，臣不胜至愿。
Please return my 3000 Zhejiang killers and gunners to me, and then recruit 5 strong cavalry units and 10 infantry units from the northwest, equip me with sufficient troops, and listen to my specialized training. I will be supplied with everything I need. This is my greatest wish.
