蠻夷戀故地，又貪漢物，誠以此時厚賂烏孫，招以東居故地，漢遣公主為夫人，結昆弟，其勢宜聽，則是斷匈奴右臂也。 Frontier peoples cling to ancestral ground yet hunger for Han goods; rich gifts now could draw the Wusun back east to their old pastures, a Han princess sealing a brotherly pact—they would surely listen, and you would sever the Xiongnu's right arm.
