If there were no twelve gold medals, would Yue Jiajun insist on the Northern Expedition and be able to "directly pound the Huanglong Mansion"? (Top)
If the enemy is not destroyed, why should the family be at home? If you are a person who likes Yue Fei, I think many people have heard this sentence, Yue Fei is a famous anti-Gold general in our history, with countless meritorious deeds in his life, and there are hundreds of battles of all sizes, large and small.
However, such a great general with outstanding achievements, during the ten years of Shaoxing, because this "twelve gold medals" suppressed his idea of attacking the city and directly smashed the pace of the Huanglong Palace, what exactly were these twelve gold medals?
Historical background
Before the setback, the Yue family army led by Yue Fei could be described as a god-like existence in the hearts of the people, killing gods when they met gods, and killing Buddhas when they met Buddhas. This was Yue Fei's fourth Northern Expedition, and during June 1140, Zhang Xian successively attacked Cai Prefecture and other places, and Sun Xian also defeated the Jin army several times around Huaining Province.
Subsequently, Xu Qing and others gradually recovered ChenZhou, Luoyang and other places, and soon after, Wang Sheng led his troops to retake Haizhou and other places, and it can be said that during this period, the prospects of the Northern Expedition of the Yue family army were very good.
This so-called direct smashing of the Yellow Dragon actually refers to taking advantage of the momentum of the soldiers now, to attack directly into the Hinterland of the Golden Kingdom, the Huanglong Province, and after recovering the lost city, warn the Golden State by the way to show the national prestige.
However, at this time, Song Gaozong sent twelve gold medals in succession to recall Yue Jiajun overnight, and the so-called idea of directly pounding the Yellow Dragon could only be stillborn.
The so-called gold medal is actually a synonym for an emergency order in the military of the Song Dynasty, like a twelve consecutive fires, which indicates that the tense has indeed reached a state of emergency.
It is undeniable that these twelve gold medals have indeed led to the disillusionment of Yue Jiajun's dreams to a certain extent, but without these twelve gold medals, Yue Jiajun can really smash the Yellow Dragon and recover the mountains and rivers as he thought, but the answer is not certain.
As we have learned before, the Yue Family Army has won one victory after another, but in the same way, after these large and small battles, in fact, a lot of troops have been lost.
At that time, the reason why the Jin State was invincible was that in addition to the Yue Family Army being powerful, the Jin State itself also had certain problems.
In the territory of the Jin Dynasty, in fact, there have been many anti-Jin rebels of all walks of life, and even the people are unconsciously resisting the Jin Kingdom, the people's hearts are unstable, the military's heart is even more unstable, panic on the battlefield, naturally easy to be attacked, so at the beginning, it will be so easy to be breached.
Victory or defeat is uncertain
But on the other hand, didn't the late Southern Song Dynasty have such a problem? Similarly, according to the records in the "Imperial Anthology", the Southern Song Dynasty had already appeared uneven at that time, there were no good generals in the imperial court who could be appointed, and the soldiers had no consciousness of sacrificing their lives for the country, and they had begun to decay from within.
Those warriors who fight in the frontier, who are not worried, although the front record is good, but the deeper into the Golden Kingdom, the more dangerous the battle situation will be encountered, and when it comes to confronting the Golden Kingdom head-on, who will kill the deer, in fact, it is still unknown.
Although the Yue family army was brave and fierce, but it was always outnumbered, if you want to go deep into the enemy, you must need the support of other armies, in the beginning, the Northern Expedition was actually launched by Han Shizhong's department and Zhang Junbu and Wu Xuan's department, and with the joint efforts of everyone, they had such a good record.
But in the end, the other three roads did not have a brilliant record, and later even had to retreat in advance, the scene that originally went hand in hand, suddenly became the Yue family army fighting alone, even if it fought a few beautiful battles later, it was still unable to cover up the yue family army's current state of no support.
