先是，阿思罕為太師，鐵木叠兒奪其位，出之為陜西行省丞相，及教化等至，即與平章政事塔察兒、行臺御史大夫脫裏伯、中丞脫歡，悉發關中兵，分道自潼關、河中府入。 Earlier, Ashan had been grand preceptor; Tiemudie'er seized his post and sent him out as Shaanxi branch secretariat grand councillor; when Jiaohua and the others arrived, he immediately joined branch secretariat grand councillor Taqachar, branch surveillance censor-in-chief Tulibai, and surveillance vice censor Tughon in fully mobilizing the Guanzhong armies, advancing in separate columns through Tong Pass and Hezhong Prefecture.
