守光得百餘騎遁入山谷，德威急馳，扼其城門，守光惟與親將李小喜等七騎奔入燕城。 Shouguang fled into the hills with barely a hundred riders; Dewei raced ahead and blocked the gates; Shouguang and seven intimates led by Li Xiaoxi alone broke into the Yan city.

辛酉，守光奉禮幣歸款於帝，帝單騎臨城邀守光，辭以他日，蓋為其親將李小喜所扼也。 On xinyou Shouguang offered ritual gifts and surrendered; Cunxu rode alone to the wall to call him out, but Shouguang put him off—Li Xiaoxi still had him in hand.

是夕，小喜來奔，帝下令諸軍，詰旦攻城。 That night Xiaoxi defected; Cunxu ordered an assault at dawn.
