高天喜鄂實三格和起唐喀祿阿敏道滿福 Gao Tianxi, E Shi, San Ge, He Qi, Tang Kalu, A Mindao, Man Fu

天喜聞兆惠陷賊陣，舍橋亟赴之，奮與賊戰，與鄂實、三格、特通額俱沒於陣。 Hearing that Zhaohui was caught in the enemy lines, Tianxi left the bridge unfinished and rushed to his relief. He fought the rebels with desperate valor and fell in battle together with E Shi, San Ge, and Tetonge.

鄂實，西林覺羅氏，滿洲鑲藍旗人，大學士鄂爾泰第二子。 E Shi, of the Xilin Gioro clan, belonged to the Manchu Bordered Blue Banner and was the second son of Grand Secretary Ortai.

兄鄂容安死阿睦爾撒納之亂，鄂實請從軍，授參贊大臣，佐定邊將軍成袞扎布，出西路。 When his elder brother Erong'an was killed in Amursana's rebellion, E Shi volunteered for active service. He was appointed deputy assisting grand minister to support Pacification General Cheng'enjab on the western campaign route.

二十二年夏，成袞扎布令逐捕扎那噶爾布，鄂實以地險馬疲，中道引還。 In the summer of the twenty-second year, Cheng'enjab ordered a pursuit of Zanagarbu, but E Shi turned the troops back halfway, pleading dangerous terrain and exhausted horses.

是冬，鄂實逐扎哈沁賊，斬一百四十餘級，獲牲械。 That winter he pursued the Zhahakin rebels, killing more than a hundred and forty of them and capturing livestock and arms.

彼時鄂實為參贊大臣，有事但諉諸將軍。 When you were deputy assisting grand minister, you used to push every difficulty off onto the general.

死事，上令仍視前鋒統領賜卹，諡果壯。 He died in action. The emperor ordered that he receive the condolence grants due a vanguard commander and honored him posthumously with the title Guozhuang.

天喜、鄂實、三格並祀昭忠祠，予騎都尉兼雲騎尉世職。 Tianxi, E Shi, and San Ge were all enshrined in the Shrine of Manifest Loyalty and granted the combined hereditary ranks of commandant of cavalry and commandant of the cloud cavalry.

論曰：高天喜驍勇善戰，與鄂實、三格奮鬥破陣，死事為最烈。 The commentator writes: Gao Tianxi was brave and skilled in battle. Together with E Shi and San Ge he fought with desperate valor to break the enemy lines, and among those who fell in service his death was the most heroic.
