《资治通鉴·后唐纪·后唐纪八》
这次兴兵讨伐凤翔之初，都夸大其辞，认为凤翔乱寇很容易讨平；现在事情已经到了这个地步，有什么办法可以扭转祸局？
军兴之初，皆自夸大，以为寇不足平；今事至于此，何方可以转祸？
At the beginning of this campaign to attack Fengxiang, everybody exaggerated and believed that the rebels in Fengxiang would be easy to put down; now that things have come to this pass, what can be done to turn the tide?
