貞觀二年，旻、蘭表可取狀，詔柴紹、薛萬均並力，令旻以勁卒直據朔方東城。 In the second year of Zhenguan, Min and Lan reported him ripe for conquest; Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun were ordered to unite, with Min's picked troops to seize Shuofang's eastern city.

頡利來援，會大雪，羊馬死，紹逆戰，破之，進屯城下。 Ilü marched to relieve the siege, but blizzards killed his herds; Chai Shao met and routed him, then encamped beneath the walls.
