Miru and Yuyu密友、紐由
1Miru saves his king
密友、紐由者，並高句麗人也。東川王二十年，魏幽州刺史毌丘儉，將兵來侵，陷丸都城。王出奔，將軍王頎追之。王欲奔南沃沮，至于竹嶺，軍士奔散殆盡。唯東部密友，獨在側，謂王曰：「今追兵甚迫，勢不可脫。臣請決死而禦之，王可遁矣。」遂募死士，與之赴敵力戰，王僅得脫而去，依山谷，聚散卒自衛。謂曰：「若有能取密友者，厚賞之。」下部劉屋句前對曰：「臣試往焉。」遂於戰地，見密友伏地，乃負而至，王枕之以股，久而乃蘇。王間行轉輾，至南沃沮，魏軍追不止。王計窮勢屈，不知所為。東部人紐由進曰：「勢甚危迫，不可徒死。臣有愚計，請以飲食，往犒魏軍，因伺隙，刺殺彼將，若臣計得成，則王可奮擊決勝。」王曰：「諾。」紐由入魏軍，詐降曰：「寡君獲罪於大國，逃至海濱，措躬無地矣。
Miru and Yuyu were both men of Goguryeo.
In the twentieth year of King Dongcheon, Guanqiu Jian, the governor of Youzhou in Wei, led troops and came to invade, and took Hwandoseong. The king fled, and the general Wang Qi came after him. The king fled toward South Okjeo, and when he reached Jungnyeong his soldiers had scattered until almost none were left.
Only Miru of the Eastern Bu stayed at his side, and he said to the king, "The pursuing troops are pressing hard now, and as things stand we cannot get away. Your servant asks to make up his mind to die and hold them off. Let the king slip away."
Then he gathered men ready to die and went with them against the enemy and fought with all his strength, and the king barely got away. He went and took shelter in a mountain valley, gathered the scattered soldiers and held his ground there. He said, "If there is anyone who can bring Miru back, I will reward him richly."
Yu Okgu of the Lower Bu came forward and answered, "Your servant will go and try." He found Miru on the battlefield, lying face down on the ground, and carried him back on his back, and the king laid him across his knees, and after a long while he came to.
The king went by back roads, turning this way and that, and reached South Okjeo, but the Wei troops did not stop following. The king's plans were at an end and his position was broken, and he did not know what to do.
Yuyu, a man of the Eastern Bu, came forward and said, "Our position is very perilous and pressing, and we cannot simply die for nothing. Your servant has a foolish plan. Let me go with food and drink to comfort the Wei troops, and watch for an opening and stab their general to death. If your servant's plan succeeds, the king can strike out and win."
The king said, "Do so."
Yuyu went into the Wei camp and pretended to surrender, saying, "My lord has offended against your great country, and has fled to the sea shore and has nowhere to put his body.
2Yuyu stabs the general of Wei
將以請降於陣前，歸死司寇，先遣小臣，致不腆之物，為從者羞。」魏將聞之，將受其降，紐由隱刀食器，進前拔刀，刺魏將胸，與之俱死，魏軍遂亂。王分軍為三道，急擊之，魏軍擾亂，不能陳，遂自樂浪而退。王復國論功，以密友、紐由，為第一。賜密友巨谷、靑木谷，賜屋句鴨綠豆訥河原，以為食邑，追贈紐由為九使者。又以其子多優為大使者。
He means to ask leave to surrender before your lines and to hand his death over to the officer of punishments, and he has first sent a small servant with a poor gift to serve as a relish for your followers."
The general of Wei heard this and was about to accept the surrender. Yuyu had hidden a knife in a food vessel, and he came forward, drew the knife, stabbed the general of Wei in the chest, and died together with him, and the Wei troops fell into confusion.
The king divided his troops into three columns and struck hard, and the Wei troops were thrown into disorder and could not form their lines, and at last withdrew by way of Nangnang.
The king recovered his country and weighed the merits, and set Miru and Yuyu first. He gave Miru Geogok and Cheongmokgok, and gave Okgu Amnok and the river plain of Dunul, to be held as their fiefs. To Yuyu he gave after his death the office of gusaja, and he also made Yuyu's son Dau a daesaja.
