五月乙巳，天雄軍節度使楊師厚及劉守奇率魏、博、邢、洺、徐、兗、鄆、滑之眾十萬討鎮州。 On yisi in the fifth month Yang Shihou and Liu Shouqi marched a hundred thousand from eight prefectures against Zhenzhou.

壬子，晉將史建瑭自趙州領騎五百入於鎮州，師厚知其有備，自九門移軍於下博。 On renzi Shi Jianya of Jin entered Zhenzhou with five hundred horse; Shihou, seeing them ready, shifted from Jiumen to Xiabo.

師厚自弓高渡御河，逼滄州，張萬進懼，送款，師厚表請以萬進為青州節度使，以劉守奇為滄州節度使。 Shihou crossed the Imperial River at Gonggao and threatened Cangzhou until Zhang Wanjin surrendered; he asked Wanjin for Qingzhou and Shouqi for Cangzhou.
