复移直隸，未行，鳳凰廳苗石滿宜糾眾為亂，金鼇聞報馳赴，令鎮筸鎮總兵尹德禧督軍破賊寨，生致其渠。 He was reassigned to Zhili but had not yet left when the Miao leader Shi Manyi of Fenghuang raised a revolt; Jin'ao hurried to the scene and ordered Zhen'ao Garrison Commander Yin Dexi to storm the rebel stockade and take the chief alive.

台灣林爽文為亂，命德禧將湖北兵二千以往，金鼇出駐鳳凰廳鎮苗疆。 When Lin Shuangwen rose in Taiwan, Yin Dexi was sent with two thousand Hubei troops while Jin'ao remained to garrison Fenghuang and keep the Miao frontier quiet.

尹德禧，鑲黃旗包衣人，初名色喀通額。 Yin Dexi was originally a bondservant of the Bordered Yellow Banner named Seketong'e.

石滿宜據句捕砦為亂，德禧破砦獲滿宜，賜花翎。 When Shi Manyi seized Jubu stockade in revolt, Dexi stormed the fort, captured him, and was granted the peacock feather.

上詰德禧：「當苗亂，何不專摺奏？」 The emperor rebuked him: "During the Miao uprising, why did you not report directly by memorial?"

德禧請罪，命貸之。 He pleaded guilty and was pardoned.

其出師台灣，師至，爽文已就俘，福康安令德禧屯竹仔港防賊逸。 On the Taiwan expedition the army arrived only after Shuangwen had been taken; Fuk'anggan stationed Dexi at Zhuzai Harbor to block any rebel escape by sea.
