使曹操曹洪:「?」:「陳琳。」:「陳琳袁紹!」Yuan Shao read this effusion with great joy. He at once ordered copies to be posted everywhere, in towns and cities, at gates, tax stations, ferries, and passes. Copies found their way to the capital, and one got into Cao Cao's palace. That day he happened to be in bed with a bad headache. The servants took the paper to the sick man's room. He read it and was frightened from the tips of his hair to the marrow of his very bones. He broke out into a cold perspiration, and his headache vanished. Cao Cao bounded out of bed and said to Cao Hong, "Who wrote this?" "They say it is Chen Lin's brush," replied he. Cao Cao laughed, "They have the literary gift; they would rather have the military too to back it up. This fellow may be a very elegant writer, but what if Yuan Shao's fighting capacity falls short?" Cao Cao called his advisers together to consider the next move.
