至正十二年,丞相脫脫討徐州賊,以官軍不習水土,募瀕海鹽丁為軍,乃超遷魯曾資善大夫、淮南宣慰使,領征討事,遣其募鹽丁五千人從征。 In 1352 Chancellor Toghto campaigned against the Xuzhou rebels. Because government troops were unaccustomed to the local climate, he recruited coastal salt workers as soldiers. Luceng was specially promoted to Grand Master of Assisting Virtue and pacification commissioner of Huainan, placed in charge of the punitive campaign, and five thousand salt workers he recruited were sent with the army.
