師厚至涼州，奏薦押牙副使崔虎心、陽妃谷首領沈念般等，及中國留人子孫王廷翰、溫崇樂、劉少英爲將吏，又自安國鎮至涼州立三州以控扼諸羌，用其酋豪爲刺史。 On reaching Liangzhou, Shihou recommended adjutant deputy commissioner Cui Huxin, the Yangfei Valley chieftain Shen Nianban, and others, together with Wang Tinghan, Wen Chongle, and Liu Shaoying—descendants of Chinese who had stayed behind—as officers. He also set up three prefectures from Anguo Town to Liangzhou to hold the Qiang in check, installing their chieftains as prefects.
