彥等不遜，投詔於地，侮罵詔使，因迫德倫飛奏，請卻復相、衛，抽退劉鄩軍。 Yan defied the court, trampled the edict, cursed the envoy, and made Delun demand Xiang and Wei back and Liu Yan's withdrawal.

復迫德倫列其事。 They forced Delun to memorialize again.

張彥又以楊師厚先兼招討使，請朝廷依例授之，故復逼德倫奏曰：「臣當道兵甲素精，貔貅極銳，下視並、汾之敵，平吞鎮、定之人。 Yan also demanded the Pacification title Shihou once held; Delun was forced to add: "Our blades are sharp, our host the fiercest—we despise Shanxi's enemies and could take Zhen and Ding.

詔至，張彥壞裂，抵之於地，謂德倫曰：「梁主不達時機，聽人穿鼻，城中擾攘，未有所依。 Yan shredded the edict and told Delun: "The Liang ruler is blind, led by the nose; the city has no anchor.

德倫不得已而從之，乃遣牙將曹廷隱奉書求援於太原。 Delun yielded and sent Cao Tingyin to Taiyuan for aid.

彥使德倫告諭軍城曰：「可依河東稱天祐十三年，此後如有人將文字於河南往來，便仰所在處置。」 Yan made Delun proclaim: "Take Hedong's Tianyou year 13; any papers bound for Henan are to be seized on the road."

六月庚寅，晉王入魏州，以賀德倫為大同軍節度使，舉族遷於晉陽。 On gengyin in the sixth month the Prince of Jin took Weizhou, made He Delun commander of Datong, and moved his clan to Jinyang.
