Zhu Xuan
After this series of defeats, both Zhu Xuan and Zhu Jin sought aid from Zhu Quanzhong's archrival Li Keyong the military governor of Hedong Circuit (河東, headquartered in modern Taiyuan, Shanxi). Li Keyong repeatedly sent officers to reinforce Tianping and Taining, but even with Hedong's aid the losses mounted.
