《战国策·赵二·张仪为秦连横说赵王》
现在秦国仰仗大王的力量，西面收复巴、蜀，兼并汉中，东面征服东、西两周，把象征天子的九鼎运移到西方，镇守白马渡口。
今秦以大王之力，西举巴蜀，并汉中，东收两周而西迁九鼎，守白马之津。
Right now, Qin relies on Your Majesty’s power. In the west, we have reclaimed Ba and Shu. We have also annexed Hanzhong. In the east, we have conquered both East and West Zhou. We have moved the nine cauldrons, which are symbolic of the emperor, to the west, and we are stationed at the Baimandu Ferry.
