仁壽中，會交州俚人李佛子作亂，據越王故城，遣其兄子大權據龍編城，其別帥李普鼎據烏延城．左僕射楊素言方有將帥之略，上於是詔方為交州道行軍總管，以度支侍郎敬德亮為長史，統二十七營而進．方法令嚴肅，軍容齊整，有犯禁者，造次斬之，然仁而愛士，有疾病者，親自撫養．長史敬德亮從軍至尹州，疾甚，不能進，留之州館．分別之際，方哀其危篤，流涕嗚咽，感動行路．其有威惠如此，論者稱為良將．至都隆嶺，遇賊二千餘人來犯官軍，方遣營主宋纂、何貴、嚴願等擊破之．進兵臨佛子，先令人諭以禍褔，佛子懼而降，送於京師．其有桀黠者，恐於後為亂，皆斬之．
In the Renshou era the Li chieftain Li Fozi of Jiaozhou rebelled, seized the old city of the King of Yue, sent his nephew Daquan to hold Longbian, and his lieutenant Li Puding to hold Wuyan. The left vice director Yang Su said Fang had a commander’s gifts, and the emperor made him commander on the Jiaozhou route with Jing Deliang of the revenue office as chief clerk, advancing with twenty-seven battalions. Fang’s discipline was severe and his ranks orderly; violators were beheaded on the spot, yet he was kind to his men and nursed the sick himself. Chief clerk Jing Deliang fell gravely ill at Yinzhou and could not continue; Fang left him at the prefectural lodge and wept at their parting so that passersby were moved. With such authority and kindness together, men called him a fine general. At Dulong Ridge more than two thousand rebels attacked; Fang sent the battalion commanders Song Zuan, He Gui, and Yan Yuan to break them. Advancing on Fozi, he first sent men to explain fortune and disaster; Fozi surrendered in fear and was sent to the capital. The stubborn and cunning, lest they rebel again, were all executed.
