段宏等聞宮中有變，勒兵屯四門。 Duan Hong and the rest heard the alarm and sealed the four gates with troops.

Book of Jin, Chapter 128Volume 128 Records 28: Murong Chao · 5 passages

後又以鐘為青州牧，段宏為徐州剌史，公孫五樓為武衛將軍、領屯騎校尉，內參政事。 Later Murong Zhong was appointed Inspector of Qing Province, Duan Hong Inspector of Xu Province, and Gongsun Wulou General of the Martial Guard while concurrently serving as Colonel of Encamped Cavalry and participating in court affairs.

宏，外戚懿望，親賢具瞻。 Hong is a paragon of the outer kin, kin and worthy both looked up to.

鐘、宏俱有不平之色，相謂曰：「黃犬之皮恐當終補狐裘也。」 Zhong and Hong both showed discontent; they said to each other: “The yellow dog’s hide will surely end up patching the fox fur.”

法常懼禍至，因此遂與慕容鐘、段宏等謀反。 Fearing payback, Murong Fa conspired with Murong Zhong and Duan Hong.

昱等攻莒城，拔之，徐州刺史段宏奔于魏。 Murong Yu took Jucheng; Duan Hong ran to Wei.
