《金史·列传·卷四十五》
以前李牧在当赵国将军时，军功爵位封赏都能自己做主，出兵进攻退守等不需听从朝中复议，因而能够北破大敌，西抑强秦。
昔李牧为赵将，军功爵赏皆得自专，出攻入守不从中覆，遂能北破大敌，西抑强秦。
Formerly, when Li Mu was a general of the state of Zhao, he handled all rewards, ranks, and titles related to military victories himself, and when advancing in battle or retreating he did not need to wait for decisions to be made in the capital. This enabled him to defeat great enemies in the north and to the south to restrain the powerful Qin.
