軍次定隴，周將張掖公宇文桀、中州刺史梁士彥、開府司水大夫梁景興等又屯鹿盧交道，光擐甲執銳，身先士卒，鋒刃才交，桀衆大潰，斬首二千餘級。 The army halted at Dinglong. Zhou generals Zhangye Duke Yuwen Jie, Zhong Province governor Liang Shiyan, and Kaifu director of water affairs Liang Jingxing and others had again encamped at the Lulu crossroads. Guang donned armor, seized a sharp blade, and led from the front; blades had barely crossed when Jie's men broke completely — more than two thousand heads were taken.

憲仍令桀及其大將軍中部公梁洛都與景興、士彥等步騎三萬於鹿盧交塞斷要路。 Xian then ordered Jie and his grand general Central Duke Liang Luodu, together with Jingxing, Shiyan, and others, to post thirty thousand infantry and cavalry at the Lulu pass and cut the vital route.
