及太祖為叠剌部夷離堇，討奚部，其長術裏逼險而壘，攻莫能下，命曷魯持一笴往諭之。 When Taizu became yilijin of the Yila tribe and attacked the Xi, their chief Shuli held the high ground behind fortifications and could not be dislodged. Taizu sent Helu with a single arrow as envoy to reason with them.

術裏感其言，乃降。 Shuli was moved by his words and submitted.
