太祖與晉圍黃鄴於西華，鄴卒荷矟登城罵敵，晉王使胡騎連射不能中。 Taizu and Jin invested Huang Ye at Xihua. Ye’s men shouldered spears, scaled the walls, and hurled abuse; the Prince of Jin sent Mongolian archers to shoot in volleys, but none struck home.

太祖顧友裕，一發中之，軍中皆大讙呼，晉王喜，遺友裕良弓百矢。 Taizu looked to Youyu, who hit with a single shot. The army roared; the Prince of Jin was delighted and sent him a fine bow and a hundred arrows.
