是歲,詔領千騎戍冀州,尋以杜重威北討,詔以漢璋充北面馬軍都排陣使,遣收淤口關,與契丹騎五千相遇於浮陽之北界,苦戰竟日,以眾寡不侔,為流矢所中,歿於陣,即是歲十一月也,時年四十九。 That year an edict ordered him to lead a thousand cavalry to garrison Ji prefecture. Soon, on Du Chongwei's northern campaign, an edict appointed Hanzhang chief array marshal of the northern horse army and sent him to recover Yukou Pass. He met five thousand Khitan cavalry at the northern border of Fuyang and fought bitterly all day. Outnumbered, he was struck by a stray arrow and died in the line — it was the eleventh month of that year; he was forty-nine.
