五月，存信軍於洹水，汴將葛從周、氏叔琮來援魏人，存信與鐵林都將落落遇汴人於洹水南，汴人為陷馬坎以待之，存信戰敗，落落被擒。 In the fifth month Cunxin camped on the Huan River. Bian generals Ge Congzhou and Shi Shuzong came to reinforce Wei. Cunxin and the Iron Forest commander Luoluo met Bian forces south of the river; the enemy had dug horse pits in ambush. Cunxin was beaten and Luoluo taken prisoner.
