景遠與軍主楊文萇拒擊，大破之。 Jingyuan with army commander Yang Wenchang resisted and struck them, inflicting a great defeat.

景遠尋病卒，太宗嘉其功，追贈冠軍將軍、豫州刺史，追封含洭縣男，食邑三百戶，以文萇代為汝陰太守。 Jingyuan soon fell ill and died. Emperor Ming praised his achievements and posthumously appointed him champion general and governor of Yu Province, enfeoffed him posthumously as baron of Hanquang with a fief of three hundred households, and made Wenchang administrator of Runan in his place.

五年，汝陰太守楊文萇又頻破虜於荊亭及戍西。 In the fifth year Runan administrator Yang Wenchang again repeatedly defeated the barbarians at Jingting and west of the garrison.
