1The Dengzhi Qiang

鄧至羌者,羌之別種也。有像舒治者,世為白水酋帥,自稱王焉。其地北與宕昌相接,風俗物產亦與宕昌畧同。自舒治至檐桁十一世。魏恭帝元年,檐桁失國來奔,太祖令章武公導率兵送復之。

The Dengzhi Qiang are a separate branch of the Qiang. There was one called Xiangshuzhi (像舒治), who for generations was chieftain of Baishui and called himself king. Their land touches Dangchang to the north, and their customs and products are much the same as those of Dangchang. From Shuzhi down to Yanheng there were eleven generations. In the first year of Emperor Gong of Wei, Yanheng lost his state and came over in flight. Taizu ordered Duke Zhangwu, Dao (導), to lead troops, escort him back, and restore him to his place.
