勒怒，遣宇文乞得龜擊廆，廆遣皝距之。 Shi Le answered Murong's snub by ordering Yuwen Qidegui north; Huang blocked him.

以裴嶷為右部都督，率索頭為右翼，命其少子仁自平郭趣柏林為左翼，攻乞得龜，克之，悉虜其眾。 Huang split wings—Pei Yi and Suotou on the right, Ren circling from Pinggu—crushing Qidegui.

尋而宇文乞得龜為其別部逸豆歸所逐，奔死於外，皝率騎討之，逸豆歸懼而請和，遂築榆陰、安晉二城而還。 Soon afterward Yuwen Qidegui was driven out by a rival kinsman, Yidougui, and died in exile; Huang led cavalry against Yidougui, who sued for peace; Huang then built Yuyin and Anjin and withdrew.
