麟復以步騎數千至合肥，諜言兀朮為之殿，人心怖駭，不知所為。 Lin again advanced on Hefei with several thousand foot and horse. Spies reported that Wuzhu was covering the rear, and the people were terrified, not knowing what to do.

其副徐慶忽墜馬，敵競赴之，皋掖以上，手刜數人，因免胄大呼曰：「我牛皋也，嘗四敗兀朮，可來決死。」 His lieutenant Xu Qing suddenly fell from his horse and the enemy rushed at him. Gao pulled him up, cut down several men with his own hand, then removed his helmet and shouted, "I am Niu Gao! I have defeated Wuzhu four times—come and fight to the death!"
