時有自鄆來者，言節度使戴思遠領兵在河上，州城無守兵，可襲而取之。 Word came from Yan that Dai Siyuan was on the river with his army and Yan city lay undefended—a sudden strike could take it.

梁主聞鄆州陷，大恐，乃遣王彥章代戴思遠總兵以來拒。 The Liang ruler, hearing Yan was lost, panicked and sent Wang Yanzhang to replace Dai Siyuan and block the advance.
