In the 16th year of this king, he came with his court ladies partied absurdly and drank alcohol with no end. A minister reproached the king and angered the king and imprisoned him and no one dared to speak up talk. Sǒng Ch’ung did not eat. Facing his death, he presented a letter [to the king] saying, “Even if the loyal subject dies, he will never forget [his] lord. I would like to say one word and then die. I often observed time and examined change. For sure, a battle is about to happen.”[As for] using soldiers, be sure to carefully choose the pattern of the terrain. Place [your soldiers] upper stream and face the enemy there. [Then] it is possible to protect them. If the enemy’s troops should come, do not let the troops on the land cross the fortress of Simhyŏn and on water do not let them enter into Kibŏl. Place your troops on the strategic narrow and dangerous passage and hold the defense. If you do like this on the future then it will be possible to win. But the king did not heed and later Sŏngch'ung died in prison. On the twentieth year of the reign of the king, Sūdìngfāng from Tang Empire, governed a troop of one hundred and thirty thousand soldiers, and with an alliance with the kingdom of Silla came to campaign. They crossed the White River, Paekkang; the Carbon Hill, T’anhyŏn, and move the troops to the Yellow Mountain, Hwangsan. The king knew [that he could] not avoid this [and] lamented sighing [and] said: "[I] regret not using Sŏng-ch'ung's words." Dingfang surrounded his fort. [The] court ladies ran on [to] the cliff [at] Taewangp'ŏ. [They] fell [and] died. Later people called this cliff as falling flowers. The King and the crown prince Hyo surrendered. Dingfang bestowed alcohol to relieve his generals and soldiers, and made the King run the drinks. All his ministers cried tears. Dingfang presented the King, the ministers and the people – 22 800 and some – to the capital of Tang. The state collapsed.
