是時，龍驤軍將劉重遇戍於懷州，以其軍作亂，友珪遣霍彥威擊敗於鄢陵，其餘兵奔散，捕之甚急。 Liu Chongyu of the Dragon-Prancing Army held Huaizhou and his men rebelled. Yougui sent Huo Yanwei; he broke them at Yanling. Survivors scattered; hunters ran them hard.

末帝即召龍驤軍在東京者告之曰：「上以重遇故，欲盡召龍驤軍至洛而誅之。」 The Last Emperor called the Dragon-Prancing men in Luoyang and said: “The throne, because of Chongyu, means to pull every Dragon-Prancing soldier to the capital and kill them all.”
