勃勃聞之，大悅，謂王買德曰：「朕將進圖長安，卿試言取之方略。」 Bobo was delighted and asked Wang Maide: "I mean to take Chang'an—tell me how."

買德曰：「劉裕滅秦，所謂以亂平亂，未有德政以濟蒼生。 Maide said: "Liu Yu ended Qin by disorder, not by virtue—the people have no relief.

勃勃善之，以子璝都督前鋒諸軍事，領撫軍大將軍，率騎二萬南伐長安，前將軍赫連昌屯兵潼關，以買德為撫軍右長史，南斷青泥，勃勃率大軍繼發。 Bobo approved: Gui led twenty thousand horse on Chang'an, Chang held Tong Pass, Maide blocked Qingni, and Bobo followed with the main army.
