德宗詔諸軍合討，其從父洧以徐州歸，大將李士真以德州、李長卿以棣州送款，納恚洧背己，且徐險集，悉兵攻洧。 Emperor Dezong ordered a general assault; Na's clansman Li Wei defected with Xuzhou, while Li Shizhen surrendered Dezhou and Li Changqing surrendered Di Prefecture. Furious at Wei's betrayal and mindful of Xuzhou's rugged defenses, Na threw his entire army against him.
