路什，納喇氏，滿洲鑲黃旗人，世居章甲城。 Lu Shen, of the Nara clan, was a Manchu of the Bordered Yellow Banner from Zhangjiacheng.

路什以驍勇稱。 Lu Shen was famed for valor.

崇德七年，師入兗州，以雲梯攻城，路什先登，克之，賜號「巴圖魯」，予世職游擊。 In Chongde 7 (1642), when the army took Yanzhou by scaling ladders, Lu Shen was first over the wall. The city fell, he received the title Batulu ("brave"), and a hereditary guerrilla rank.

三年，從肅親王豪格西征，會叛將賀珍等犯漢中，分兵守雞頭關，路什與巴牙喇纛章京鰲拜擊卻之； In Shunzhi 3 (1646) he followed Prince Su Haoge west. When rebel generals He Zhen and others struck Hanzhong, Lu Shen and Vanguard Banner Commander Oboi repulsed them at Jitou Pass;

明桂王將羅大順出拒戰於黔西州十萬溪箐，路什與噶布什賢噶喇依昂邦鄂訥、梅勒額真噶褚哈分兵擊之，連破數營，敵大潰。 The Southern Ming Prince of Gui's general Luo Dashun met them at Hundred-Thousand Creek Pass in Qianxi. Lu Shen, Engne, and Gazha attacked in separate columns, broke camp after camp, and routed the enemy.

吳三桂反，路什年已七十，請從征，遂從貝勒尚善徇湖南。 When Wu Sangui rebelled, Lu Shen was seventy and asked to take the field; he followed Prince Shangshan in Hunan.

寇至，風大作，泊綠林灘，舟被擊，路什猶賈勇發矢石，擊殺十數人，力竭，死。 When the enemy came up, a gale struck his boats at Lülin Beach. Lu Shen still fought, raining arrows and stones and killing more than ten men before his strength failed and he fell.
