The real Yue Fei in history

Yue Fei (1103-1142), also known as Pengju, was the Prime Minister of Tangyin in Song Dynasty. A native of Xiaotili, Yonghe Township, County (now Chenggang Village, Tangyin County, Anyang City, Henan Province), he was a famous military strategist, strategist, and national hero in Chinese history. He ranked first among the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty.

He insisted on resisting the Jin. For more than ten years, he led the Yue family army to fight hundreds of battles with the Jin army. He was invincible and "reached the position of general".

In 1140, he launched the Northern Expedition, defeated the Jin army in Yancheng and Yingchang, and marched into Zhuxian Town.

Song Gaozong and Qin Hui, however, insisted on seeking peace and ordered their troops to retreat with twelve gold medals. Yue Fei was forced to retreat in isolation and without support.

During the peace negotiations between the Song and Jin Dynasties, Yue Fei was framed by Qin Hui, Zhang Jun and others and was arrested and imprisoned.

In January 1142, Yue Fei was killed by the imperial court on the "unfounded" charge of "treason".

Yue Fei was the most outstanding commander in the Southern Song Dynasty. He attached great importance to the people's strength to resist the Jin Dynasty and created the "Linking Heshuo" strategy. He advocated that the anti-Jin Dynasty rebels north of the Yellow River and the Song army cooperated with each other to attack the Jin army. to regain lost ground.

Yue Fei's literary talent is also rare among generals. His immortal poem "Man Jiang Hong" is a patriotic masterpiece that has been passed down through the ages.

Yue Fei ran the army with clear rewards and punishments, strict discipline, and he could lead by example and show compassion to his subordinates. The Yue family army had the military discipline of "do not tear down the house when freezing, do not beat prisoners when hungry".

Even the Jin army lamented: "It is easy to shake a mountain, but it is difficult to shake the Yue family's army!" Yue Fei opposed the Song Dynasty's passive defense strategy of "only ordering oneself to defend oneself to wait for the enemy, and not daring to attack from a distance to seek victory." It has always advocated active offensive in order to win the anti-golden struggle.

He was the only commander in the early Southern Song Dynasty who organized a large-scale offensive campaign.

During the Song and Jin Dynasties, the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Liao Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty and occupied the Central Plains, and frequently launched wars of southern invasion. They burned, killed, raped and captured people wherever they went. Many important cities and towns were looted by the Jin army and almost became empty cities.

It has brought great disaster and suffering to the country and nation.

Therefore, fighting against the Jin soldiers and regaining the Central Plains is the requirement of the times and is also in line with the wishes of the people.

"History of the Song Dynasty" said that Yue Fei was "loyal and indignant, and his opinions were upright", which is quite appropriate.

And Zhao Gou, Qin Hui, Wan Qixi and others will always be sinners through the ages.

Yue Fei has a famous saying that has been passed down for nearly a thousand years: "If civil servants do not love money, military ministers will not hesitate to die, the world will be at peace." In the society of the Song Dynasty, the officialdom was filled with the habit of worshiping literature and suppressing military affairs, and military generals were accused of being rough. people.

It is extremely difficult for a military general to say such a precise, concise and concise saying, let alone practice it personally.

After he became a high-ranking official, his income was naturally quite high, but he always maintained a rather simple life.

When his second wife Li Wa once wore silk fabrics, Yue Fei insisted that she change into low-end linen clothes.

His private wealth is very generous, but he often turns his private wealth into public affairs and uses his private wealth to subsidize the military.

On one occasion, the items in the house were sold, resulting in two thousand bows.

After his death, his home was ransacked. There was no gold, jade, or jewelry at all. The only valuables were more than 3,000 pieces of linen and silk, and more than 5,000 husks of rice and wheat. They were obviously intended to supplement the military.

It was very common for the ruling class in the Song Dynasty to take concubines.

For example, Wu Jie, a famous anti-gold general, took gold and stone, drank too much, and died of hemoptysis.

Han Shizhong not only had many concubines, but also liked to insult the wives and daughters of his generals, and actually forced the fierce general Hu Yantong to commit suicide.

Yue Fei’s ex-wife Liu took the initiative to leave home and remarry during the war.

He and his second wife Li Wa stayed together for life.

Once, Wu Jie's subordinate officer went to Yue Fei's military camp on a business trip. He was quite surprised that there were no concubines, singing boys, or prostitutes in Yue Fei's army to accompany him.

After returning to report to Wu Jie, Wu Jie specially sent a famous lady from Sichuan to Yue Fei and bought a lot of gold and jade jewelry as a dowry, but Yue Fei sent her back.

Yue Fei is not an official fan at all. He has expressed his intention to retire after success in his several memorials.

The famous sentence "Thirty years of fame is worth the dust" expresses his disdain for official titles.

The people of the Southern Song Dynasty had widespread and lofty evaluations of this, saying that he "could win decisively with the sky in his hand, but he is light-hearted and the nobles only seek the quiet."
