Infinite Streamer

The corpses of the Jin army along the Zhang River piled up like a mountain for a while, but the Jin army could not advance an inch. Yue Fei on the south bank of the Zhang River also led 10,000 cavalry troops to launch harassment and attacks from time to time, switching between real and fake "guerrilla strategies". When the Jin army organized a large group of troops to attack and defend, Yue Fei would harass and then retreat strategically. When the Jin army was short of troops to meet the enemy, Yue Fei would annihilate them in one fell swoop, making the Jin army very annoyed, but helpless. They could not see the enemy's people within the effective range of archery, and within the effective shooting range of guns and artillery, they became targets of the enemy's attacks.

Within a few days, most of the Jin army had been killed or wounded. Wanyan Zongwang and his men had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​rescuing Jin Wushu by force. The Jin army then proposed to exchange one of Song Huizong or Song Qinzong for Jin Wushu.

When Niu Gao's troops reported the Jin people's proposal to Xu Xian, Xu Xian thought for a moment and felt that replacing these two useless Zhao Song emperors was of positive political significance. He also issued his own instructions: either replace both, or don't replace them!

After receiving Xu Xian's reply, the Jin people reluctantly agreed. So the two sides exchanged prisoners at the agreed time, Jin Wushu returned to the Jin army camp, and Song Huizong and Song Qinzong were placed under house arrest by Xu Xian.

Seeing that the road to the north was blocked, Wanyan Zongmou and his companions led more than 3 defeated soldiers to detour eastward to Kaide Prefecture (Puyang, Henan), planning to go around Shandong and then escape to the northeast. Yue Fei then led cavalry troops and pursued them relentlessly for more than a month.

More than a month later, when the latest military situation was reported to the Heavenly King Xu Xian, Xu Xian exclaimed: "He is indeed worthy of being the famous general Yue Fei! It is true that there is no constant situation for soldiers and no constant shape for water! He takes advantage of the situation and is a famous general!"

It turned out that after the Jin army was annihilated by Niu Gao's troops and Yue Fei's troops, 70,000 to 80,000 of them gave up all the supplies and craftsmen looted in Song territory. Wanyan Zongmou and others attempted to lead Jin Wushu and others to bypass Kaide Prefecture (Puyang, Henan) to the east and then escape back to the northeast via Shandong, but they encountered stubborn resistance from the famous general Zong Ze.

Yue Fei did not receive Xu Xian's order to pursue, and directly led 10,000 cavalrymen, following the Jin army all the way and constantly looking for opportunities to annihilate the Jin army's vitality. It can be summed up in sixteen words, "When the enemy is tired, I attack; when the enemy stays, I harass; when the enemy flees, I pursue; when the enemy advances, I retreat!" He also chased and killed more than 20,000 Jin troops along the way.

Wanyan Zongmou, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Loushi and others were the most prestigious veterans of the Jin army. They thought that when they arrived in Beijing, Damingfu, they could join forces with Wanyan Zongfu and Wanyan Zongbing (Jin Wushu) to return to Alkin in triumph and return home in glory.

What completely surprised them was that, originally for safety reasons, Wanyan Zongfu was asked to assist the Third Prince Jin Wushu to guard the rear of Daming Prefecture where there was no danger. Unexpectedly, they were all wiped out, and the Third Prince Jin Wushu was also captured by the rebel army of the so-called Heavenly King Xu Xian.

The Jin army consumed 80,000 to 90,000 troops and was unable to rescue the Third Prince. They had no choice but to exchange the two emperors for the Third Prince. The Jin army generals saw that their troops were getting smaller and smaller, and they could not get any food or grass replenishment. They were really helpless against Yue Fei's guerrilla strategy.

In this way, the Jin army fled all the way, and the cavalry led by Yue Fei followed and attacked all the way, all the way through the entire Kaide Prefecture. When they arrived in Shandong Pingyuan County, the Jin army was left with only a few thousand men.

Yue Fei went around in circles, and seeing that his own forces had surpassed the enemy, he continued to press on until he reached Pingyuan County (now Dezhou, Shandong), then he concentrated his superior forces, defeated the Jin army in one fell swoop, annihilated the enemy's forces, and captured Jin Wushu and others again.
