是月，以高麗殺使者，命撒禮塔率師討之，取四十餘城。 That month, because Goryeo had killed envoys, Sartaq was ordered to lead an army against it and took more than forty cities.

高麗王皞遣其弟懷安公請降，撒禮塔承制設官分鎮其地，乃還。 King Hao of Goryeo sent his younger brother, the Duke of Huai'an, to sue for surrender. Sartaq, acting under imperial commission, appointed officials to garrison the country in divisions, then returned.

八月，撒禮塔復征高麗，中矢卒。 In the eighth month Sartaq again campaigned against Goryeo and died of an arrow wound.
