俟欽差大臣西凌阿入楚，即統兵從襄河兩岸水陸並進，由漢川攻漢陽。」 When Imperial Commissioner Xiling'a enters Hubei, we will advance by land and water along both banks of the Xiang and attack Hanyang through Hanchuan."

秋，西凌阿戰德安失利，乃命官文代為欽差大臣，馳援德安。 That autumn Xiling'a was defeated at De'an, and Guan Wen replaced him as imperial commissioner and rushed to relieve the city.
