乃遣御史中丞王宗持節發幽、冀諸郡兵，合數萬人，乃徵雄為青州刺史，與王宗并力討之。 The court ordered Vice Censor Wang Zong, staff in hand, to raise tens of thousands from Youzhou and Ji province; Fa Xiong was called to serve as governor of Qingzhou, and the two commanders campaigned together.

於是王宗召刺史太守共議，皆以為當遂擊之。 Wang Zong called the provincial and prefectural officials to council; everyone favored pressing the attack.
