    五年春正月,董承等謀泄,皆伏誅。公將自東征備,諸將皆曰:「與公爭天下者,袁紹也。今紹方來而棄之東,紹乘人後,若何?」公曰:「夫劉備,人傑也,今不擊,必爲後患。〈孫盛《魏氏春秋》云:荅諸將曰:「劉備,人傑也,將生憂寡人。」臣松之以爲史之記言,旣多潤色,故前載所述有非實者矣,後之作者又生意改之,於失實也,不亦彌遠乎!凡孫盛製書,多用左氏以易舊文,如此者非一。嗟乎,後之學者將何取信哉?且魏武方以天下勵志,而用夫差分死之言,尤非其類。〉袁紹雖有大志,而見事遟,必不動也。」郭嘉亦勸公,遂東擊備,破之,生禽其將夏侯博。備走奔紹,獲其妻子。備將關羽屯下邳,復進攻之,羽降。昌狶叛爲備,又攻破之。公還官渡,紹卒不出。
