Yue Fei's ending is not inevitable, but his personality is too stubborn, his military talent is more than enough, and his political strategy is insufficient. I often challenge the imperial court in the Southern Song Dynasty, and I will only do what I want, without considering the feelings of others.
One only knows that there is a court, not an emperor. Adjust the slogan of action.
Yue Fei is really admirable, and Song Gaozong and Zhao Gou also like it very much. Such cadres contribute to themselves. Although Song Gaozong was an agent, he never fainted. For yue fei's credit, Song Gaozong completely see in the eye. The relationship between monarch and minister was very close at first. Song Gaozong often calls Yue Fei into the palace to drink and talk about the world's major plans and state affairs, which is a great demeanor of being a virtuous monarch and a good minister. However, with the change of the world and the disharmony of personality in many aspects, the contradiction between monarch and minister gradually emerged.
The main contradiction is that Yue Fei just doesn't realize that there is a big problem with his action slogan? Recover the sixteen states of deep and remote clouds and welcome back the two saints? . Imagine if the first two Song emperors, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong, were welcomed back, where would Zhao Gou and Song Gaozong go, and who would be the son of heaven in the Song Dynasty? From this perspective, if Yue Fei wants to stop persecution, he should adjust his action slogan.
Second, don't talk to the emperor.
Yue Fei's second mistake is that he is too honest and frank. In the seventh year of Shaoxing (1 137), Yue Fei was ordered to go back to the DPRK to discuss state affairs. On the court, Yue Fei publicly suggested to Song Gaozong to open a shop early, which is also a normal royal affair. The problem is that Song Gaozong has no children and no children. If you want to open a shop, you must adopt a prince from many collateral royal families.
At that time, after hearing this, Song Gaozong turned pale and said coldly, this is the duty of civil servants, and military commanders should not interfere.
Normally, it doesn't matter. But in Zhao Gou's eyes, it is different. Chu Jun is someone else's child. What does Yue Fei want? Is he loyal to me or to the new king?
Yue Fei should know what to say and do, be careful and do his job well, instead of exceeding his authority and asking questions that Song Gaozong shouldn't ask, so as not to arouse Song Gaozong's suspicion.
Third, disrespect and disobedience.
After Yue Fei's mother died of illness, Yue Fei volunteered to temporarily resign from his military and political post and return to his hometown to be filial to his mother. Bearing in mind the principle of governing the country with filial piety, Song Gaozong and Zhao Gou agreed that Yue Fei would go home to mourn. Yue Fei withdrew from the front line, and the confrontation of the Song and Jin border wars began to be unfavorable to the Southern Song regime. Song Gaozong in a hurry to yue fei imperial edict, yue fei back to the front to bid.
After receiving a personal letter from Song Gaozong Zhao Gou, Yue Fei politely refused. Song Gaozong suppressed the fire in his heart and wrote to recall Yue Fei again. Yue Fei rode on the road reluctantly.
There are too many acts of Yue Fei's resistance. This is just a fragment. The king of a country was very wronged and begged the general to go out to resist the enemy. In other words, in the Song Dynasty, Yue Fei was killed in advance in other dynasties.
We often say that the loyal Yue Fei is a hero admired all over the world, and his feelings of defending the country to the death are worth learning from Chinese children. However, Yue Fei's defects are also very obvious. As a famous soldier in the Southern Song Dynasty, he could have retired to his hometown like Han Shizhong, but he was persecuted to death by his colleagues at the best age of his life. Looking back on this history, I really sympathize with Yue Fei.
