至是，擴廓帖木兒乃大發兵，諸道夾攻大同，調麾下鎖住守護京師，兵不滿萬，以其部下青軍楊同僉守居庸，擴廓帖木兒自將至太原，調督諸軍。 Now Köke Timur mobilized on a large scale. Armies from every circuit converged on Datong. He left Suozhu to guard the capital with fewer than ten thousand men, posted his Qing Army commander Yang Tongqian at Juyong, and marched in person to Taiyuan to direct the campaign.

丙戌，皇太子親統兵迎於清河，丞相也速、詹事不蘭奚軍於昌平，也速軍士無鬪志，青軍楊同僉被殺於居庸，不蘭奚戰敗走，皇太子亦馳入城。 On the bingxu day the heir apparent led troops in person to meet them at Qinghe, while Chancellor Yeshu and household superintendent Buranxi took position at Changping. Yeshu's men would not fight. Yang Tongqian was killed at Juyong, Buranxi was routed, and the heir apparent galloped back into the city.
