In the first year of Taihe (328), Shi Hu attacked Pushan. Liu Yao, the emperor of the former Zhao, led the best troops of the whole country to rescue Pushan and defeated Shi Hu. He then took advantage of the situation to attack Luoyang, which was defended by Shi Sheng, and poured water into the city. When Shi Le saw this, he insisted on rescuing Luoyang himself, despite Cheng Ya's dissuade. So he ordered Taobao, Shi Cong and Shi Kan to join forces in Xingyang, and then led his troops directly to attack the Jin Yong-Cheng of Luoyang. In the twelfth month, Shi Le and the troops of Later Zhao gathered in Chenggao. Seeing that Liu Yao did not set up a garrison, Shi Le went on a stealth march with light troops. Liu Yao did not begin to prepare for defense until Shi Le crossed the Yellow River. He was even more afraid of Shi Le and his army coming to attack from the population of Jie captured at the front, so he relieved the siege and went to Luoxi Array. At the beginning of the attack, Shi Le said, "It was Liu Yao's best policy to set up a large army to defend Chenggao Pass. The next best thing was for private soldiers to intercept Luoshui. If I hold Luoyang, I will be captured alive. "Seeing Liu Yao in formation in Luoxi, Shi Le was very happy and thought that he would surely win. Then he and Shi Hu, Shi Kan, and Shi Cong attacked Liu Yao in three ways and finally defeated the former Zhao.
