其日，東昏將李居士與衆來戰，僧珍等要擊，大破之。 That day Donghun's general Li Jushi brought his force to battle; Sengzhen intercepted and shattered them.

李居士密覘知衆少，率銳卒萬人，直來薄城。 Li Jushi spied and saw how thin the garrison was; he led ten thousand elite men straight against the walls.

俄而皆越塹拔柵，僧珍分人上城，矢石俱發，自率馬步三百人出其後，守隅者復踰城而下，內外齊擊，居士應時奔散，獲其器甲不可勝計。 Soon they crossed the moat and wrenched down the stakes; Sengzhen put men on the wall with stones and arrows raining, led three hundred horse and foot around their rear, and had the corner guards leap down as well—inner and outer struck as one, Jushi fled instantly, and arms taken were beyond reckoning.
