《旧五代史·后汉·列传六》
在这以前，契丹派幽州指挥使张琏，带领部下军士二十多人屯驻邺城，同时还有幽燕的军士一千五百人在京师。当高祖到京师时，有人报告将发生变乱，说燕军计划叛乱，因而将燕军全杀死在繁台下面，人们都说燕军死得冤枉。
先是，契丹遣幽州指挥使张琏，以部下军二千余人屯鄴，时亦有燕军一千五百人在京师，会高祖至阙，有上变者，言燕军谋乱，尽诛于繁台之下，咸称其冤。
Before this, the Khitan had sent the Youzhou commander Zhang Lian, leading more than 20 soldiers and soldiers to station in Yecheng, and there were still 1,500 soldiers and soldiers from Youyan in the capital. When Emperor Gaozu arrived in the capital, someone reported that there would be a rebellion, saying that the Yan army had planned a rebellion, so all the Yan soldiers were killed under Fantai, and people said that the Yan army was killed unjustly.
