Some people compare him with Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, and their three famous anti-Jin generals are all named the Seven Kings of the Southern Song Dynasty, and it is enough to see that his merits are outstanding, and he is wu Jiu, the general of the anti-Jin dynasty.
Wu Jiu joined the army as a teenager, and in the first battle to suppress the Fang La uprising, he rushed into the enemy army, captured a chieftain, and made a name for himself in the suppression of the peasant uprising in Hebei. In the battle of Western Xia, he led the cavalry to kill more than one hundred and forty people, which can be described as brave and outstanding. In addition to bravery, Wu Jie was very strict with military discipline after becoming a commander-in-chief, and after breaking the enemy, he forbade soldiers to burn and loot, which won the love of the people and appeased the military and the people to add a lot of points to him.
In the Battle of Fuping, Yan Zongbi defeated the Song army, and it is very interesting that before this battle, Yan Zongbi was particularly stressed in his heart, and Wu Jiu defeated the first wave of the Jin army's offensive in the first battle, and Finished Yan couldn't help but cry when he retreated... Later, Wu Jiu's strategy of defending in the highlands was not adopted, and the Song army suffered a major rout, the advantage was reversed, and the situation was critical.
During the retreat, Wu Jie was appointed as the governor of the capital to be responsible for the rear. Wu Jiu reorganized his troops, deployed troops around Dashanguan, and ambushed Shangyuan, this place is a mountain pass, is a natural defensive line, a military stronghold, the patriotic poet Lu You of later generations also left a poem "Lou Chuan Night Snow Guazhou Ferry, Iron Horse Autumn Wind Great Scattered Pass", at that time someone advised Wu Jiu to retreat from guarding Guanzhong, he was righteously rejected, he was determined to stick to Dashan Pass, refused to resist the Jin soldiers to pass north.
This determination touched the people, plus Wu Jiu has always loved the people and sympathized with the army and the people, the people in this area spontaneously sent grain to the Song army, it is this kind of unity of heart, Wu Jiu blocked the wave after wave of attacks of the Jin army in Shangyuan, Yan Zongbi was furious, and personally led 100,000 troops to try to enter Sichuan, Wu Jiu's subordinates were frightened, but he was not afraid of danger, and used righteousness to motivate the soldiers, in this battle, Wu Jiu used favorable terrain, plus archery artifacts to attack the Jin army that broke through the pass, and then attacked the camp at night to burn grain. Finally, an ambush was set up at the pass of the withdrawal, and even Yan Zongbi was hit by several arrows and almost killed, and this battle greatly boosted the military might, and Wu Jiu became famous in a battle.
This is one of the few in history to win more with less, to win more with the weak, in the following ten years, Wu Jie continued to consolidate the defensive line and defended Sichuan Shu, but unfortunately he died young, died of illness in Xianrenguan, nicknamed Wu'an, some people said that he was a good female Color Jindan in his later years, and some people said that he had accidentally eaten the dirty water with the eggs of locusts, he was indeed sick and died, but the cause turned out to be a mystery.
