同治末，法人陷河內，法將安鄴構越匪黃崇英謀佔全越，擁眾數万，號黃旗。 Late in the Tongzhi reign the French took Hanoi; the French general An Ye (Francis Garnier) colluded with the Vietnamese bandit Huang Chongying to seize all Vietnam, mustered tens of thousands, and was known as the Yellow Flag.

越王諭永福來歸，永福遂繞馳河內，與法人抗，設伏以誘斬安鄴，覆其全軍。 The king of Vietnam ordered Yongfu to return; Yongfu circled to Hanoi, resisted the French, set an ambush to lure and kill An Ye (Francis Garnier), and destroyed his whole army.
