上問諸將，滕公言故楚令尹薛公有籌策。 The emperor asked the generals. Teng Gong spoke of the former Chu prime minister Xue Gong who had strategy.
上見公，薛公言布形勢，上善之，封薛公 千戶。 The emperor saw Xue Gong. Xue Gong spoke of Ying Bu's situation. The emperor approved it and enfeoffed Xue Gong with a thousand households.
布果如薛公言，東擊殺荊 王劉賈，劫其兵，度淮擊楚，楚王交走入薛。 Ying Bu indeed did as Xue Gong had said: he attacked eastward and killed Liu Jia, King of Jing, seized his troops, and crossed the Huai to attack Chu. Jiao, King of Chu, fled into Xue.
