漢將趙思綰據永興、王景崇據鳳翔反，皆送款於昶。 Han generals Zhao Sixuan at Yongxing and Wang Jingchong at Fengxiang rebelled and both offered their allegiance to Chang.

已而漢誅思綰、景崇，虔釗等皆罷歸，而思謙恥於無功，多殺士卒以威眾。 Han soon executed Sixuan and Jingchong, and Qianzhao and the others withdrew. Siqian, shamed by his failure, killed many soldiers to intimidate his men.
