《明史·列传·卷五十九》
时间长了士兵都疲惫不堪，又增选没有正式军籍的军人来防冬，一家有五六口人在边境的，军队费用更加陷入困境。
军士日久疲罢，又益选军余防冬，家有五六人在边者，军用重困。
Over time, the soldiers became exhausted, and additional soldiers without official military status were recruited to defend the winter. The army's expenses became even more difficult for families with five or six people on the border.
