楊懷、高沛，璋之名將，各仗強兵，據守關頭，聞數有箋諫璋，使發遣將軍還荊州。 Yang Huai and Gao Pei are Liu Zhang’s chief captains, each with strong garrisons on the choke points; they have urged Zhang in repeated memorials to send you home to Jingzhou.

先主然其中計，即斬懷、沛，還向成都，所過輒克。 Liu Bei chose the middle course: he executed Huai and Pei and drove toward Chengdu, taking every place along the way.
