棣州刺史張蟾叛，師範遣指揮使盧洪討蟾，洪亦叛。 Tizhou prefect Zhang Chan rose in revolt; Shifan sent Lu Hong to crush him—and Hong rebelled too.

師範偽為好辭召洪，洪至，迎於郊外，命鄩斬之座上，因使鄩攻張蟾，破之。 Shifan lured Hong with fair words and received him in the suburbs; at the feast he had Xun cut off Hong’s head, then sent Xun against Zhang Chan and broke him.
