亟分遣諸將，率師二十二萬，列陣九門外：都督陶瑾安定門，廣寧伯劉安東直門，武進伯硃瑛朝陽門，都督劉聚西直門，鎮遠侯顧興祖阜成門，都指揮李端正陽門，都督劉得新崇文門，都指揮湯節宣武門，而謙自與石亨率副總兵范廣、武興陳德勝門外，當也先。 He immediately sent out his generals with two hundred twenty thousand men, drawing up battle lines outside the nine gates: Tao Jin at Anding, Liu An at Dongzhi, Zhu Ying at Chaoyang, Liu Ju at Xizhi, Gu Xingzu at Fucheng, Li Duan at Zhengyang, Liu Dexin at Chongwen, Tang Jie at Xuanwu—while Qian himself, with Shi Heng, led Vice Commanders Fan Guang and Wu Xing, arrayed outside Desheng Gate to meet Esen head-on.
