This caused countless colleagues to nod their heads and prepare to go back and write it down in their notes, until the editor Hu Quan next to them spoke up and said that this should be published in the next issue of the official gazette, and then they gave up.
On the first day of October, autumn leaves fell and early winter had arrived, but the water level of the Yellow River did not decrease. On this day, Emperor Zhao crossed Zhengzhou and arrived at Sishui Pass, where he gathered Fan Yihong, the last commander of Li Qiong's (formerly the Eight Character Army) who was stationed in a scattered area.
By this point, a full ten days had passed, and all the troops in the imperial camp had been mobilized.
On the same day, the main force of Yue Fei's Imperial Camp, which had gathered first, officially crossed the river at Zilu Sha under the escort of the Imperial Camp navy.
On the other side of the river, although Ali won the field battle, Liaocheng was an important riverside military formation that the Jin army had worked hard to build. It was suddenly captured by the Song army and suffered no damage at all. Ali could not capture this big city with three or four thousand troops still defending it within ten days, and he had already become discouraged.
But Gao Jingshan, the commander-in-chief of the Jin Dynasty's Damingfu Military Command, simply did not have the power and courage to make the decision to fight on the spot... Or, Yue Fei saw that after the Jurchens lost Erlido, it would be impossible for them to have another truly powerful commander within ten days, so he gathered his troops calmly and started the river crossing... In short, facing the almost overwhelming crossing of the river by the main force of the Song army, Ali directly chose to retreat northward and gave up Liaocheng.
Before crossing the river, Yue Fei sat in the military camp and tried to compose a poem to a high monk from Lingjiu Temple whom he met in Jinan. However, for some reason, he could not finish writing the poem after writing half of it. Instead, he put down his pen and put on his armor and crossed the river with Zhang Rong who came to urge him.
Only half of the poem was left in the Henan camp, and no one picked it up.
As the saying goes:
"How many autumns have passed in Pinghu and Liangshan? The great river flows eastward with many twists and turns.
The man is determined to support the royal family, and the holy ruler will conquer and destroy the local chieftains.
The achievements should be engraved on Yanshi, and then I will return..."
The handwriting stops abruptly, and no one knows what is said next. It can be regarded as a rare poem with an unfinished ending.
On the same day, Emperor Zhao at Sishui Pass did not know this story... At this time, he had already known that Li Yanxian had quickly sent troops after receiving the imperial edict, and that Wang De and Qu Duan had arrived in Luoyang, but he did not issue any additional military orders. Instead, he wrote a private letter to Han Shizhong, who was unaware of the situation, and sent it away on express horseback.
After the letter was sent, Emperor Zhao went out in the middle of the night, looked up at the sky and sighed, as if he also wanted to compose a poem, but after thinking it over and over again, he couldn't come up with a single line of poetry. Instead, he inexplicably remembered the rather childish but somewhat philosophical words he had heard when he was a teenager.
As the saying goes:
"Why do wars burn? Why do autumn leaves fall?"
Faced with this almost absurd and stupid question, Emperor Zhao actually thought about it a little foolishly, which then caused many senior officers in the Eight Character Army to sigh from afar - Emperor Zhao was sighing day and night, and he truly cared about the world.
