《新五代史·列传·杂传第三十》
不久黄巢攻陷长安，趟辇对将吏们说： 按我的估计，黄巢如不被长安市人所杀，就必定会驱使众人束逃，我们州恰好在其要道上！ 
已而巢陷长安，犨语诸将吏曰： 以吾计，巢若不为长安市人所诛，必驱其众东走，吾州适当其冲矣！ 
Soon Huang Chao attacked Chang’an, and Zhao Zhao said to the generals and officials: I estimate that if Huang Chao is not killed by the people of Chang’an, he will surely force everyone to flee. Our prefecture is right on his path!
