《三国志·吴书·周瑜鲁肃吕蒙传》
吕蒙暗中借贷，为将士们做了大红衣服和绑腿，等到检阅之日，他的部队队列严整威武，全军人人都能演练，孙权见了非常高兴，就给他增添部下。
蒙阴赊贳，为兵作绛衣行縢，及简日，陈列赫然，兵人练习，权见之大悦，增其兵。
Lu Meng secretly borrowed funds, and made large red clothing and  leggings for the soldiers, and when the day for the inspection came, his troops were lined up in strict military formation, and looked magnificent. All the soldiers demonstrated their skills, and Sun Quan was very pleased, and so he increased the number of troops under his command.
