In his opinion, the writing methods includes selecting the materials around the point, cutting the materials properly, placing the materials cleverly, using terms succinctly, surging the momentum and injecting emotions. Zeng Guofan also regarded Historical Records as the model to guide his writing, which let his biographies become better.%曾国藩受桐城派的影响，自小浸淫《史记》，受其影响深远，对其为文之法十分推崇，并进行了相关评点，主要是在取材上紧扣主旨，量身选材；在情感上自鸣郁抑，情感喷涌；在气势上文气承接，迈远骞举；在剪裁上详略得当，繁简相宜；在谋篇上先后有序，布局巧妙；在语言上用词洁准，叠词复笔。曾国藩还以《史记》为圭臬，在自己的传记文章写作实践中进行了借鉴运用。
