In 956, Wang Kui was ordered by Chai Rong, Emperor Shizong of the Later Zhou Dynasty, to attack the Southern Tang Dynasty. His army passed Yuezhou (now Yueyang, Hunan Province). Wang Kui's subordinates extorted rewards from pan Shusi, who was trained by Yuezhou regiment. They were greedy but still unsatisfied. They falsely accused Wang Kui of treason.
