He smiled and said, "Our army only pursues and does not attack the remaining enemy troops. First, we do not want them to escape from our grasp. It is easy for them to come to Shuozhou, but if they want to leave, they have to ask my Qin army for permission.
Secondly, this move can increase the psychological pressure on the enemy soldiers. When they see that our Qin army is following closely but not attacking, they will inevitably be nervous, and some Jin army soldiers may even collapse because of this.
Finally, the enemy is doomed to defeat and knows their chances of survival are slim. If we attack them now, they will surely fight to the bitter end, and our army will suffer heavy casualties. Wouldn't it be like killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of our own?
These three reasons are similar to Xun Yu’s ideas.
He was a smart man, and it was already a very impressive thing that he could guess Yue Fei's thoughts at the first moment.

However, he never expected that the commander in front of him, named Yue Fei, was so young!
It seems that he is a few years younger than me.
Upon meeting Cao Ren, Yue Fei, without the slightest hesitation, immediately clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, General Cao. General Cao, with only 80,000 men, held off an enemy force of 250,000, inflicting heavy losses on them. This is truly admirable."
If you ask yourself, even if you were asked to defend the city, you could only defend it to the same extent as Cao Ren.
The latter laughed and said, "General Yue, you are too serious. If you had not led your troops to arrive in time, I am afraid that Shuozhou City would have changed hands long ago.
