道次江寧，東昏將李居士以重兵屯新亭，是日選精騎一千至江寧行頓，景宗始至，安營未立； At Jiangning, Dong Hun's general Li Jushi held Xinting with a heavy force; that day he sent a thousand picked horsemen to Jingzong's halt—Jingzong had just arrived and his camp was not yet pitched;

且師行日久，器甲穿弊，居士望而輕之，因鼓噪前薄景宗。 and the column had marched long, its arms in tatters; Jushi saw this, despised them, and charged with drums and shouts straight at Jingzong.

景宗被甲馳戰，短兵裁接，居士棄甲奔走，景宗皆獲之，因鼓而前，徑至皁莢橋築壘。 Jingzong armored and rode to meet them; in close fight Jushi threw off his armor and ran; Jingzong took them all, drummed forward, and built a rampart at Zaojia Bridge.
