初，兩浙錢俶承詔遣部將率兵攻常州，為江南大將陸孟俊所敗，將佐陷沒者甚眾，李景亦以表聞。 Qian Chu of the Two Zhes had attacked Changzhou at imperial order but was beaten by Lu Mengjun; many officers were lost. Li Jing reported the victory to the Zhou court.

時李景乘常州之捷，遣陸孟俊領兵迫泰州，王師不守，韓令坤欲棄揚州而回。 Emboldened by Changzhou, Li Jing sent Lu Mengjun against Taizhou. Zhou forces wavered, and Han Lingkun considered abandoning Yangzhou.

李景遣其弟齊王達率大眾由瓜步濟江，距六合一舍而設柵。 Li Jing sent his brother Li Da, Prince of Qi, with a large army across the river at Guabu, encamping a li from Liuhe.
