轉攻零陵，太守陳球固守拒之。 They swung toward Lingling, but Prefect Chen Qiu held the walls.

於是以尚為中郎將，將幽、冀、黎陽、烏桓步騎二萬六千人救球，又與長沙太守抗徐等發諸郡兵，并埶討擊，大破之，斬蘭等首三千五百級，餘賊走蒼梧。 Du Shang was named general of the household at the head of twenty-six thousand foot and horse from Youzhou, Ji province, Liyang, and the Wuhuan tribes to relieve Chen Qiu. With Kang Xu of Changsha he mobilized county levies, smashed the rebels, took thirty-five hundred heads including Hu Lan's, and drove the survivors toward Cangwu.
