Nguyen Quyen and Pham Duc Ky fought a huge battle. Ky jumped to the hood of Nguyen Quyen's boat first and cut down Quyen's bodyguard. Quyen defended with his sword, Ky couldn't help it, so he jumped into the river and dived away. 

Nguyen Quyen jumped to Ky's boat, cut off the bodyguard's head and quickly shoved the tip of his sword into the enemy's head, raised it high, and shouted:

"Here is the head of Vu Lang Marquis, how can you guys fight me!"
