《旧五代史·后唐·庄宗纪三》
王彦章性格暴烈，耐不住管制，梁主每次发兵，都派近臣监护，是否进退，全靠监军决定，王彦章不乐意，形之于色。
彦章立性刚暴，不耐凌制，梁主每一发军，即令近臣监护，进止可否，悉取监军处分，彦章悒悒，形于颜色。
Wang Yanchang had a violent personality and could not stand control. Every time Liangzhu sent troops, he sent a close minister to supervise whether to advance or retreat. Wang Yanchang was not happy and showed it on his face.
