Hao Siwen becomes one of the leaders of the Liangshan cavalry after the Grand Assembly. He follows the heroes on their campaigns against the Liao invaders and rebel forces after they have been granted amnesty by the emperor. During the Fang La campaign, Hao Siwen and Xu Ning are part of the scouting team assigned to watch the northern gate of Hangzhou. The gate unexpected opens and a large enemy force rushes out. Hao Siwen is captured and Xu Ning attempts to save him but is hit by a poisoned arrow. Hao Siwen meets with a gruesome death at the hands of the enemy general Fang Tianding, who beheads and dismembers him.

Famous quotes containing the words campaigns and/or death:
“That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.”
—Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
“We term sleep a death ... by which we may be literally said to die daily; in fine, so like death, I dare not trust it without my prayers.”
—Thomas Browne (1605–1682)
