銀槍都將王建及被甲橫槊進曰：「賊將先已奔亡，王之騎軍一無所損，賊眾晡晚，大半思歸，擊之必破。 Wang Jianji of the Silver Spear, in armor with spear level, stepped forward: "Their general has fled and your horse are untouched; by evening most of the Liang want home—hit them and they will shatter.

於是李嗣昭領騎軍自土山北以逼梁軍，王建及呼土眾曰：「今日所失輜重，並在山下。」 Li Sizhao then led horse from the north of the hill against the Liang; Wang Jianji shouted to the troops on the height, "All the baggage we lost today lies below!"
