潭州刺史鄧處訥發邵州兵戍龍回關，建峰等至關，降其戍將蔣勛。 Deng Chuna, prefect of Tanzhou, sent Shaozhou troops to hold Longhui Pass. When Jianfeng's army arrived, the garrison commander Jiang Xun submitted to them.

建峰取勛鎧甲被先鋒兵，張其旗幟，直趨潭州，至東門，東門守者以為關兵戍還，開門內之，遂殺處訥，建峰自稱留後。 Jianfeng clad his vanguard in Jiang Xun's armor, flew Xun's banners, and marched straight on Tanzhou. At the east gate the guards mistook them for the Longhui garrison coming off rotation and let them in. They killed Deng Chuna, and Jianfeng declared himself acting military governor.
