Introduction: Yue Fei is a great hero in the history of the Chinese nation, who has made outstanding contributions to cleaning up the army, resisting the Jin soldiers, and recovering lost territory.
However, he eventually died under the trickery of the traitor Qin Huan, which made countless people feel regret and indignation. However, after his death, well-meaning friends desperately saved his youngest son, and the Yue family set up the ancestral motto of never marrying in gratitude.
In 1103 AD, a little boy was born in a peasant family surnamed Yue in Tangyin County, Xiangzhou, Henan, and people named him "Fei". Fei showed a talent for military affairs from an early age, he loved to read and was familiar with all kinds of military books.
He also studied martial arts in his hometown, and his achievements in archery and marksmanship were very good. In the year of the weak crown, he was drafted into the army, and in the face of the task of suppressing bandits, he was only assigned two hundred soldiers, and the number of bandits was several times that of them.
Yue Fei decided to let some of the soldiers ambush and lead a small number of officers and soldiers to lure the enemy. In the end, he cleverly leads the enemy into a trap, successfully winning more with less.
However, Jin soldiers tore up the previous peace treaty and went south to attack the hinterland of the Central Plains. Yue Fei's army was forced to retreat, and he could only return to his hometown.
Seeing the tragic situation of corpses strewn and bloody on the road, he decided to join the army to defend his homeland. Although he hesitated, worried that he would not be able to take care of his aging mother, his mother-in-law told him that when the country was in crisis, he should devote himself to the military to defend the country.
His mother-in-law also personally asked someone to engrave four big characters on his back: "Serve the country with loyalty!" This became a symbol of Yue Fei's lifelong faith. Over time, Yue Fei put the country's righteousness first and joined the anti-gold team.
At that time, the royal city of Kaifeng was besieged by Jin soldiers, and Zhao Zhi did not send troops to rescue, but began to flee. Only Deputy Marshal Zong Ze led 10,000 remnants to the rescue, and Yue Fei was one of them.
In one battle, Yue Fei faced an enemy army several times his own, and he skillfully shot down the enemy flag, greatly weakening the morale of the enemy army. Although the army eventually failed, Kaifeng fell, Emperor Huizong and Emperor Qinzong were captured, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished.
Zhao established his own regime and hoped that Yue Fei would help him maintain the stability of the southern regime. However, Yue Fei always insisted on the Northern Expedition, and he hoped that Emperor Gaozong would lead his army to boost morale.
He wrote to the emperor, but this angered the high-ranking officials, and Yue Fei was exiled from the barracks. He did not give up, but ventured across the river to the north, continued to join the army, and made many merits.
In 1130, Yue Fei fought against the Jin soldiers with more than 10,000 men and successfully defeated the enemy army through flexible tactics and night raids. He made many achievements in the Anti-Gold War, winning more with less, and won the awe and hatred of the golden people.
He had a high prestige in the army, and was respected and rewarded by Emperor Gaozong of Song, becoming the youngest envoy of the Southern Song Dynasty. He was strict with the army and did not allow officers and soldiers to encroach on the property of the people, so Yue Fei and his Yue family army enjoyed a high reputation among the people.
However, his main battle stance was in stark contrast to that of the main and faction headed by the emperor. Emperor Gaozong of Song hoped that Yue Fei would defend the Jiangnan territory of the Southern Song Dynasty and enjoy a comfortable life, while Yue Fei wholeheartedly wanted the Northern Expedition.
He became the biggest obstacle on the road to reconciliation. Qin Hui was a minister close to Emperor Gaozong of Song, and he supported peace with Jin Ren and was always used by Emperor Gaozong.
Yue Fei was the main battle faction, so Qin Hui tried to get rid of Yue Fei. Under the manipulation of Qin Huan, Yue Fei was framed for "rebellion" and imprisoned for torture.
However, Yue Fei was very honest and incorruptible, and he couldn't even find anything excessive about him when he fabricated incriminating evidence. In 1142, he was sentenced to death for "trumped-up" charges.
He made great contributions to the country and the people in his life, but eventually died in the emperor's suspicion and the framed by his traitors. Yue Fei's family was also in danger, and Emperor Gaozong exiled them to Lingnan.
Yue Fei's wife let people take away their youngest son Yue Lin in advance, so that Qin Hui would not attack him. When Yue Fei's friend Gong Zuwen learned the news, he searched everywhere and finally brought Yue Lin home.
He taught Yue Lin to read and hyphenate, practice martial arts and strengthen his body, and train him to become an excellent young man. In 1162, Emperor Xiaozong succeeded to the throne and rehabilitated Yue Fei, and his family was pardoned and granted meritorious service, giving Yue Lin the opportunity to serve in the imperial court.
In order to repay Gong Zuwen for his nurturing grace, Yue Lin regarded him as another father. The descendants of the two families are therefore like a family, and have the ancestral motto of never intermarrying.
Yue Fei's tragedy reflects the cruelty of the times, but also shows the brilliance of human nature. The ancestral motto of the Yue Gong family symbolizes the courage and righteousness of the Gong Zuwen, as well as the virtues of the Yue family.
Summary: Yue Fei is a great hero who has made outstanding contributions to the stability of the country and the nation. His life experience was full of twists and turns, and he eventually died of trickery.
However, his friend desperately saved his son, and the Yue family set up the ancestral motto of never marrying for gratitude. Yue Fei's tragedy reflects the cruelty of the times, but also shows the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature.
The ancestral motto of the Yue Gong family became a symbol of the close relationship between them, and it was also an affirmation of Gong Zu's righteousness and courage, as well as the virtue of the Yue family's gratitude to Zhi En Tubao. Their stories inspire future generations and demonstrate the power of patriotism and sincere friendship.
