朱瑾走吳，召吳兵攻徐、宿，存節謀曰：「淮兵必不先攻宿，然宿溝壘素固，可以禦敵。」 Zhu Jin fled to Wu and brought Wu troops against Xu and Su; Cunjie judged: “The Huainan army won’t hit Su first—but Su’s trenches and walls are strong enough to hold.”

乃夜以兵急趣徐州，比傅徐城下，瑾兵方至，望其塵起，驚曰：「梁兵已來，何其速也！」 He raced by night toward Xuzhou; his dust was rising under the walls when Jin’s army arrived—they cried: “Liang is here already—how fast!”
