The famous Southern Song Dynasty general Wu Jie was so awesome, why was he not rated as one of the Four Generals of ZTE?
The Jin Dynasty did not adopt the strategy of taking Sichuan first and then going eastward to outflank the Southern Song Dynasty. Later, Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty adopted the same strategy as the Jin Kingdom. It was a pity that there were no heroes like Wu Jie and Wu Li brothers in the Southern Song Dynasty, so the Mongolian army succeeded. The "Four Generals of Zhongxing" are the four people who were considered by the court and the people to have made the greatest contributions in the battle against the Jin Kingdom during this period. They are Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, and Liu Guangshi. They were commended by the court for their military exploits. , was praised by the people of the time. The hero was saddened by beauty, and Wu had countless wives and concubines.
He commanded 180,000 Song troops to abandon their favorable terrain and take the initiative to engage in field battles with the Jin cavalry. As a result, they were completely defeated in the Battle of Fuping. After the Battle of Fuping, all the five northwest routes in the Southern Song Dynasty were lost, and the situation in Sichuan and Shaanxi deteriorated rapidly. The 100,000 Jin army approached Sichuan.
Wu Jie led more than a hundred cavalry to pursue and killed a hundred Xia troops. Forty people were promoted to second lieutenant general. Unexpectedly, Wu Jie came quickly and occupied the three counties of Song Dynasty, but the gains outweighed the losses. The court promoted Wu Jie to the rank of Shaobao, and served as the envoy of Lizhou Road, Jie, Cheng, and Fengzhou. Xixia attacked Huaide's army again. With these many military exploits, Wu Jie was awarded the title of Bingyilang. Wu Jie rose to prominence in the army.
It was precisely because of this environment that he became patriotic. Famous generals, such as the famous Yue Fei, but although we talk about the Song Dynasty today, we don't talk about Yue Fei, but another military general who is comparable to or even surpasses Yue Fei. Perhaps the famous doctor Zhang Rui prepared yellow mud and white flour pills for him, but it is actually related to Xixian. It has nothing to do with poison. According to modern medicine, "Yi Jian Zhi·Wu Shaoshi" is more reliable. After Wu Jie's death, people in the west often worshiped Wu Jie at the temple of Guan Sirie for protection.
When the Song army hesitated, Wanyan Zongbi led his troops to attack. The engineers moved soil and carried firewood, filled the swamp and paved the road. Soon the mud was razed to the ground. Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Loushi soldiers attacked the Song army camp in two groups. The Song army Being attacked from both sides, the Song army in the Jianghuai area was mainly attacked by Liu Yu. Therefore, for a period of time, the main battlefield of the Song and Jin Dynasties was in the Guan-Shaanxi area.
