    永安六年,蜀併於魏,武陵五谿夷與蜀接界。時論懼叛亂,乃以牧為平魏將軍,領武陵太守,往之郡。魏遣漢葭縣長郭純試守武陵太守,率涪陵民入蜀遷陵界,屯於赤沙,誘致諸夷邑君,或起應純,又進攻酉陽縣,郡中震懼。牧問朝吏曰:「西蜀傾覆,邊境見侵,何以禦之?」皆對曰:「今二縣山險,諸夷阻兵,不可以軍驚擾,驚擾則諸夷盤結。宜以漸安,可遣恩信吏宣教慰勞。」牧曰:「不然。外境內侵,誑誘人民,當及其根柢未深而撲取之,此救火貴速之勢也。」敕外趣嚴,掾史沮儀者便行軍法。撫夷將軍高尚說牧曰:「昔潘太常督兵五萬,然後以討五谿夷耳。是時劉氏連和,諸夷率化,今既無往日之援,而郭純已據遷陵,而明府以三千兵深入,尚未見其利也。」牧曰:「非常之事,何得循舊?」即率所領,晨夜進道,緣山險行,垂二千里,從塞上,斬惡民懷異心者魁帥百餘人及其支黨凡於余級,純等散,五谿平。遷公安督、揚武將軍,封都鄉侯,徙濡須督。〈会稽典录曰:牧之在濡须,深以进取可图,而不敢陈其策,与侍中东观令硃育宴,慨然叹息。育谓牧恨於策爵未副,因谓牧曰:「朝廷诸君,以际会坐取高官,亭侯功无与比,不肯在人下,见顾者犹以於邑,况於侯也!」牧笑而答曰:「卿之所言,未获我心也。马援有言,人当功多而赏薄。吾功不足录,而见宠已过当,岂以为恨?国家不深相知,而见害朝人,是以默默不敢有所陈。若其不然,当建进取之计,以报所受之恩,不徒自守而已,愤叹以此也。」育复曰:「国家已自知侯,以侯之才,无为不成。愚谓自可陈所怀。」牧曰:「武安君谓秦王云:『非成业难,得贤难;非得贤难,用之难;非用之难,任之难。』武安君欲为秦王并兼六国,恐授事而不见任,故先陈此言。秦王既许而不能,卒陨将成之业,赐剑杜邮。今国家知吾,不如秦王之知武安,而害吾者有过范睢。大皇帝时,陆丞相讨鄱阳,以二千人授吾,潘太常讨武陵,吾又有三千人,而朝廷下议,弃吾於彼,使江渚诸督,不复发兵相继。蒙国威灵自济,今日何为常。向使吾不料时度宜,苟有所陈,至见委以事,不足兵势,终有败绩之患,何无不成之有?」〉復以前將軍假節,領武陵太守。
