命定州刺史蕭勃會瞟於西江。 He ordered Dingzhou Inspector Xiao Bo to join Biao at Xijiang.

勃知軍士憚遠役，因詭說留瞟。 Bo knew the troops dreaded a distant campaign and used deceit to hold Biao back.

瞟集諸將問計，霸先曰：「交趾叛換，罪由宗室，遂使溷亂數州，逋誅累歲。 Biao gathered the generals for counsel. Baxian said: "Jiaozhi rebels; the fault lies with the imperial clan, and several provinces have been in turmoil while the court has failed to punish for years.

瞟以霸先為前鋒。 Biao made Baxian his vanguard.

春，正月，癸丑，楊瞟等克嘉寧城，李賁奔新昌獠中，諸軍頓於江口。 In spring, the first month, on guichou, Yang Biao and the rest took Jianing; Li Ben fled among the Xinchang Liao; the armies camped at the river mouth.
