于是匡威、铎及朱全忠皆请因其败伐之。 Kuangwei, Duo, and Quanzhong alike petitioned the court to strike Keyong while he was down.

军容使杨复恭，克用所善也，亦极谏以为不可，昭宗然之，诏谕全忠等。 Army Commissioner Yang Fugong, Keyong’s ally, argued just as hard against the campaign. Zhaozong sided with him and sent edicts calming Quanzhong and his allies.

全忠阴赂浚，使持其议益坚，昭宗不得已，以浚为太原四面行营兵马都统，韩建为副使。 Quanzhong bribed Jun behind the scenes until his counsel could not be shaken. Zhaozong yielded and named Jun supreme commander of the Taiyuan campaign, with Han Jian as deputy.
