之鼎解印付家人，令間道走成都，率總兵楊魁、何成德、王永世、傅汝友，游擊陳先鳳、陳田、劉應科等出禦賊，身受重創。 Zhiding handed his seal to his household and told them to escape by a hidden route to Chengdu. He led Brigadiers Yang Kui, He Chengde, Wang Yongshi, and Fu Ruyou and Mobile Battalion Commanders Chen Xianfeng, Chen Tian, and Liu Yingke out to face the enemy and was gravely wounded.

賊湧至，之鼎自度不能免，拔劍自刎，未殊，與魁等俱被執，傳送貴陽。 Rebels swarmed in. Seeing no escape, Zhiding drew his sword and cut his throat but did not die outright. He and Kui and the others were captured and sent to Guiyang.
