《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪四十一》
三月，朝廷下令，将陇西郡府迁到襄武，安定郡府迁到美阳，北地郡府迁到池阳，上郡官府迁到衙县。百姓眷恋乡土，不愿离开故地，于是官府下令割去庄稼，拆除房屋，铲平营垒，毁掉粮仓。
百姓恋土，不乐去旧，遂乃刈其禾稼，发彻室屋，夷营壁，破积聚。
In the third month, the court ordered that the government of Longxi county be moved to Xiangwu, the government of安定郡 be moved to Meiyang, the government of Beidi county be moved to Chiyang, and the government of Shangjun be moved to Yaxian county. The people were attached to their homeland and did not want to leave their old places, so the government ordered that the crops be cut off, the houses be demolished, the camps be leveled, and the granaries destroyed.
