烏重胤守河陽，吉甫以汝州捍蔽東都，聯唐、許，當蔡西面，兵寡不足憚寇，而河陽乃魏博之津，弘正歸國，則為內鎮，不宜戍重兵示不信，請徙屯汝州。 Wu Chongyin held Heyang; Jifu argued that Ruzhou shielded the eastern capital, linked Tang and Xu, and faced Cai on the west, and with few troops could not deter the enemy; yet Heyang was Weibo's strategic crossing—with Hongzheng's return it became an inner command and should not be heavily garrisoned as a sign of distrust; he asked to move the garrison to Ruzhou.
