《后汉书·列传·西羌传》
当时滇吾的附属部族变得强盛，经常在各羌人部族中称雄，凡是谁想侵犯边境，滇吾就教给他们谋略，做他们的大首领。
时滇吾附落转盛，常雄诸羌，每欲侵边者，滇吾转教以方略，为其渠帅。
At that time, Dianwu's affiliated tribes became stronger and stronger. They often dominated various Qiang tribes. Whenever anyone wanted to invade the border, Dianwu would teach them strategies and serve as their great chieftain.
