《资治通鉴·晋纪·晋纪四十》
当初，刘裕认为沈田子兵员太少，就派沈林子率兵从秦岭赶赴救助。等他们到达青泥，后秦军已经失败，于是沈林子与沈田子合兵追击敌人，关中郡县很多向沈田子暗中投降。
初，裕以田子等众少，遣沈林子将兵自秦岭往助之，至则秦兵已败，乃相与追之，关中群县多潜送款于田子。
At that time, Liu Yu believed that Shen Tianzi had too few soldiers, so he sent Shen Linzi to lead the troops from Qinling to rescue him. When they arrived at Qingni, the Hou Qin army had already failed. Therefore, Shen Linzi joined forces with Shen Tianzi to pursue the enemy. Many counties in Guanzhong secretly surrendered to Shen Tianzi.
