e army。
As they drew near the camp； Jiang Wei gave order： 〃The army are to camp outside。 Only the King can enter the gate。〃
Mi Dang went up toward the gate with a hundred or more followers； and Jiang Wei with Xiahou Ba went to wele him。 Just as they met； before Mi Dang could say a word； the Wei generals dashed on past him and set on to slay。 Jiang Wei was taken aback； leaped on his steed and fled； while the mixed force of troops of Wei and Qiangs drove the camp defenders before them and sent them flying。
When Jiang Wei leaped upon his steed at the gate； he had no weapon in his hand； only his bow and quiver hung at his shoulder。 In his hasty flight the arrows fell out and the quiver was empty； so when he set off for the hills with Guo Huai in pursuit； Jiang Wei had nothing to oppose to the spears of his pursuers。 As they came near he laid hands upon his bow and made as if to shoot。 The string twanged and Guo Huai blenched。 But as no arrow went flying by； Guo Huai knew Jiang Wei had none to shoot。 Guo Huai therefore hung his spear； took his bow and shot。 Jiang Wei caught the arrow as it flew by and fitted it to his bowstring。 He waited till Guo Huai came quite near； when he pulled the string with all his force and sent the arrow flying straight at Guo Huai's face。 Guo Huai fell even as the bowstring sang。
Jiang Wei pulled up and turned to finish his fallen enemy； but the soldiers of Wei were nearly upon him； and he had only time to snatch up Guo Huai's spear and ride off。 Now that Jiang Wei was armed and their own leader wounded； the soldiers of Wei had no more desire to fight。 They picked up their general and carried him to camp。 There the arrow…head was pulled out； but the flow of blood could not be stanched； and Guo Huai died。
