瓊為水運什長，乃構夏津賊帥張乙，得千餘人，沿河而上，中夜竊發，自南城殺守將，絕浮航，入北城，朗悟據牙城以拒之。 Qiong, a river-transport chief, allied with the bandit Zhang Yi of Xiajin and raised more than a thousand men. They moved upriver and struck at midnight, killing the southern garrison commander, severing the pontoon bridge, and entering the north city while Lang'e barricaded himself in the headquarters.
