 | | I believe all of you have seen how the defenders of a small fortress prevailed against a besieging force of several hundred thousand men. |
 | | The siege of Kunyang (昆陽之圍) fought by Liu Xiu (劉秀) [at the founding of the Eastern Han] and the battle of Hefei (合肥) fought by Zhuge Ke (諸葛恪) [in the Three Kingdoms] are solid evidences of such success." When everyone heard Shen Pu's speech, they felt more secure. |
 | | It is sufficient to defend our fortress, but we cannot fight a field battle outside the walls. |
