Why is Wang Yan not so famous in history? Speaking of it, his fate is even more tragic than Yue Fei's.
Although Yue Fei was finally killed by a "virtual", at least he succeeded and achieved some of his ideals. Moreover, even if he dies, he will live in people's hearts forever.
Rebecca, on the other hand, was not so lucky. He was suppressed by the imperial court before he succeeded, so that he failed to show his ambition all his life. Once, he was the leader of Yue Fei and the leader of the Eight-character Army, the backbone of Hebei's resistance to gold. If we follow the normal track, he may become a famous ZTE star in the Southern Song Dynasty. However, everything is just if.
Wang Yan is an expert against gold, and Yue Fei is also an expert against gold. They are both comrades-in-arms and superiors and subordinates. It stands to reason that mutual appreciation is the only person who should know heroes, attach importance to heroes and jointly resist the nomads from the army.
However, the actual situation is that Yue Fei and Wang Yan have conflicting personalities, different opinions and contradictions, and finally broke up in discord. Wang Yan was almost wiped out, and Yue Fei was almost beheaded by Wang Yan.
What the hell is going on here?
Yue Fei was expelled from the army for advocating the Northern Expedition in the Thousand-character Book, and finally went to Hebei to join the army alone, and was placed under the control of Wang Yan by Zhang.
At this time, Wang Yan's army was not called the eight-character army, but a refugee army recruited by Zhang from Hebei. Don't underestimate these refugees. When a person has no home, no relatives, no land and nothing, he is fearless, even if there are mountains and rivers of knives in front of him, he will go forward bravely!
This army under Wang Yan is such a group of hard-working people, including Yue Fei.
But before Wang Yan and Yue Fei started to exert their strength, something happened in the rear. Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan of the capitulators ousted Li Gang, and Zhang Suo was also removed from his post. Before the war, Wang Yanbu was alone in Hebei, with no one in charge of the overall situation and no backup.
In this case, Rebecca chose to go it alone and dragged a group of brothers to die in Hebei. However, they broke out with amazing fighting capacity.
Wang Yan contacted Hebei rebels everywhere to crusade against gold, and was locked as an important target by Jin Jun. Soon, Jin Jun arrived.
At this time, Yue Fei was 25 years old and Wang Yan was 39 years old. Yue Fei, who is full of blood, advocates active confrontation with 8 Jin Army. He should attack and defend, and he should not retreat blindly. A brave soldier has such a domineering attitude.
Wang Yan is self-serious, focusing on preserving his troops, avoiding the heavy and ignoring the light, and refusing to take risks easily. At this point, Wang Yan and Yue Fei clashed. Yue Fei once thought that Wang Yan was afraid of war and even suspected that he had a tendency to defect to the enemy.
So, regardless of Wang Yan's military orders, Yue Fei led the troops to fight with 8 Jin Army, and the result was a total victory (but he was almost beheaded by Wang Yan, fortunately, Wang Yan put national justice first and didn't cut Yue Fei).
However, Yue Fei's move also attracted a full-scale encirclement and suppression of 8 Jin Army, and Wang Yan's department was in a desperate situation.
At the critical moment, this group of refugees once again showed their great power and broke through the blockade of 8 Jin Army with irresistible force. You know, at that time, 8 jin j was so terrible that even the elite XiLiang army of DaSong could be systematically eliminated, but Wang Yan and Yue Fei rushed out forcefully.
However, the fighting friendship between Wang Yan and Yue Fei ended here.
After breaking out of the tight encirclement, the two parted ways because of disagreement. Wang Yan started the "Eight-character Army" in Taihang Mountain, which is famous in Hebei Province. Yue Fei is still a small army.
Later, Yue Fei ran out of ammunition and went to borrow food from Wang Yan's department. Wang Yan ignored him, and Yue Fei and Wang Yan broke up from then on. Yue Fei quickly defected to Zong Ze, and was newly appointed to stay in Tokyo, which opened another eventful autumn against gold.
And Wang Yan also accepted Zong Ze's collection. At that time, the rebels from all walks of life in Liangjiang went to Zong Ze in succession, and they became famous. As long as you give the order, you can cross the Yellow River and launch a counterattack against Kim.
But it happened that at this time, Zhao Gou was so slow to give orders that 70-year-old Zong Ze became angry and surrendered to send Du Chong to power, and the situation in the two rivers suddenly went downhill. Crossing the river became a dream.
Since then, Wang Yan's eight-character army has also been incorporated by Du Chong. When Yue Fei saw Wang Yan again, Wang Yan had become his subordinate. Yue Fei felt guilty about what happened that year, and Wang Yan had no face to relegate to Yue Fei's position. Finally, he handed over the eight-character army to another anti-gold expert-Liu Qi!
