今聞駕前之馬，猶有五千，願得壯者千匹，健兵千人，與勇將郎萬金，自平遙沿山冒虜中而趨官砦，且戰且行，得其半達，則事濟矣！」 I hear there are still five thousand horses with the imperial train. Give me a thousand strong mounts, a thousand fit soldiers, and the brave general Lang Wanjin, and I will strike from Pingyao along the mountains through enemy territory toward the government camp, fighting as we march. If even half of us arrive, the task can still be accomplished!"
