時帝之先鋒將史建瑭自趙州率五百騎入真定，師厚大掠鎮、冀之屬邑。 Cunxu's vanguard Shi Jiantang rode five hundred horse from Zhao into Zhending while Shihou ravaged the Zhen and Ji countryside.

六月壬申朔，帝遣監軍張承業至幽州，與周德威會議軍事。 On the renshen new moon of the sixth month Cunxu sent Zhang Chengye to Youzhou to plan with Zhou Dewei.

時守光繼遣人乞降，將緩帝軍，陰令其將孟修、阮通謀於滄州節度使劉守奇，及求援於楊師厚，帝之遊騎擒其使以獻。 Shouguang kept suing to surrender to stall Cunxu while Meng Xiu and Ruan Tong secretly dealt with Liu Shouqi at Cangzhou and asked Yang Shihou for help—until Jin scouts seized the envoys and brought them in.

是月，帝會王鎔於天長。 That month Cunxu met Wang Rong at Tianchang.
