當是時，賊見陜兵盛，多流入山西，其魁紫金梁、混世王、姬關鎖、八大王、曹操、闖塌天、興加哈利七大部，多者萬人，少亦半之，蹂躪汾州、太原、平陽。 Seeing Shaanxi's armies strong, most rebels poured into Shanxi under seven major chiefs—Purple-Gold Beam, World-Wrecker King, Ji Guansuo, Eight Great Kings, Cao Cao, Rush-the-Sky, and Xing Jiaha Li—hosts of up to ten thousand men or half that, ravaging Fenzhou, Taiyuan, and Pingyang.
