十一年,徐壽輝為亂,起蘄、黃,寬徹普化與其子別帖木兒、答帖木兒引兵至金剛臺,壽輝部將倪文俊敗之,執別帖木兒。
In the eleventh year Xu Shouhui rebelled, rising in Qi and Huang; Kuanchepuhua marched with his sons Bet Temür and Da Temür to Jingang Terrace, but Ni Wenjun, a general under Xu Shouhui, routed them and took Bet Temür prisoner.
未幾,復還武昌,命其子報恩奴、接待奴、佛家奴以大船四十餘只水陸並進,至沔陽攻徐壽輝偽將倪文俊,且載妃妾以行。
Before long he was back at Wuchang and sent his sons Baonenu, Jiedainu, and Fojianu forward by land and water with more than forty large ships to Mianyang to attack Ni Wenjun, a rebel general of Xu Shouhui — even bringing their consorts and concubines along.
兵至漢川縣雞鳴汊,水淺船閣,不能行,文俊以火筏盡焚其船,接待奴、佛家奴皆遇害,而報恩奴自死,妃妾皆陷,寬徹普化走陜西。
At Jiming Ford in Hanchuan the water ran shallow and the fleet grounded; Wenjun sent fire-rafts and burned every ship. Jiedainu and Fojianu were killed, Baonenu took his own life, the women were all captured, and Kuanchepuhua fled to Shaanxi.
