二十一年，命為靖逆將軍，督師廣東，尚書隆文、提督楊芳為參贊副之。 In the twenty-first year he was named Pacification General to command the Guangdong front, with Minister Long Wen and Provincial Military Commander Yang Fang as his deputies.

奕山偕隆文先退，屯距城六十里小金山，諱敗為勝。 Yishan and Long Wen pulled back first and camped at Little Golden Hill, sixty li from the city, passing off defeat as victory.

隆文，伊爾根覺羅氏，滿洲正紅旗人。 Long Wen, of the Irgen Gioro clan, belonged to the Manchu Plain Red Banner.

偕奕山督師廣東，意不相合，甫至，病，憂憤而卒，諡端毅。 He went with Yishan to command in Guangdong, but they did not see eye to eye. He had barely arrived when illness and distress killed him; he was posthumously titled Duanyi.
