Zhang Guifang was the General of Qinglong Pass in the Shang Dynasty, once stationed at Lintong Pass, refusing to let refugees leave the pass. Ordered by Grand Tutor Wen to inquire about Huang Feihu's whereabouts, he fought with Huang Feihu and was later assassinated by Xiao Yin. Later, during the campaign against Xiqi, he used the art of calling names to unhorse enemies to capture Zhou Ji and Huang Feihu in succession, but was wounded by Nezha. After fleeing, he invited the Four Sages to assist, but was still defeated and surrounded. Ultimately, he shouted, 'Your Majesty King Zhou! I cannot serve the country and achieve merit, but I will die to fulfill my duty as a minister!' and committed suicide.
