《宋史·列传·卷七十一》
韩琦说 ：赵元昊虽然动用全部兵力进犯我们，但兵力不过四五万人，我们分路派兵各自把守的话，必然分散兵力削弱力量，遇到敌人就会无法抵抗。
琦言： 元昊虽倾国入寇，众不过四五万人，吾逐路重兵自为守，势分力弱，遇敌辄不支。
Han Qi said: Although Zhao Yuanhao used all his troops to invade us, the strength is no more than forty or fifty thousand. If we divide and assign troops to guard the soldiers, we will inevitably disperse our troops and weaken our strength. If we encounter the enemy, we will not be able to resist.
