Let's talk about Wanyan Wushu. After the monk was defeated, he gathered the remaining defeated generals and wrote a memorial to request more troops. After careful consideration, the Emperor of Jin ordered Wanyan Wushu to return to Beijing to report on his duties, and sent Sa Lihe to Shu to direct the battle.

On this day, Sa Lihu came to Shu, read out the imperial edict, and took over the command of the army. That night, Salihe held a banquet to see off Wanyan Wushu. During the banquet, Wanyan Wushu reminded Salihe: "Monk Yuan, there are heavy guards from the Southern Dynasty army, and it is difficult for a frontal attack to be effective." Salihe replied: "Thank you very much. Remind me, I have my own arrangements." A few days later, the Song Army learned that the Jin Army had changed its generals and that Sa Lihe had replaced Wanyan Wushu. They immediately reported it to Tang Feng. Tang Feng sent someone to invite Wu Jie and asked: "General Wu, We have just received information that Sa Lihe has replaced Wanyan Wushu as the commander-in-chief of the Jin Army in Shu. You have fought against him before. What do you think of this person?" Wu Jie said: "General, last time I was with Qu Duan. After the general defeated him, Sa Lihu cried loudly and was known as the Crying Man. I think this person is not as capable as Wanyan Wushu." Tang Feng said: "Even so, we cannot take it lightly and must be more vigilant to prevent unexpected events. ." Wu Jie replied: "I honor your order." The next day, the Song army shifted from a relaxed state of celebrating victory to a state of preparation for war. However, the two armies faced off for more than a month, and the Jin army did not launch an attack.

Just when Tang Feng thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, he received two urgent documents from the generals stationed in Shangzhou (today's Shangxian, Shaanxi) and Jinzhou (today's Ankang, Shaanxi), reporting that the two cities had been destroyed. Besieged by the Jin army.

It turned out that Salihe discovered that Monk was heavily guarded by Song troops, so he changed his attack route, leaving a small number of troops to confront the Song troops who were defending Monk. He led the main force to attack Shangzhou and Jinzhou in an attempt to attack Raofeng Pass. (today's northwest of Shiquan, Shaanxi, Shaanxi) and entered Shu.

Tang Feng read the emergency document and ordered the drums to be beaten to gather the generals. After everyone arrived, Tang Feng said to everyone: "Comrades, we have been fooled. The Jin army has changed its march route. They are attacking Shangzhou and Jinzhou in an attempt to Capture Raofeng Pass, and if they succeed, they can enter Shu." After discussion, the Song army generals reached a consensus: defending Shangzhou and Jinzhou is the next best option, and the Song armies in the two places should be ordered to retreat to Raofeng Pass, and together with the former Raofeng Pass There are defenders waiting for reinforcements, and at the same time, effective forces are mobilized from the original defenders of the monks to rush for reinforcements.

So Tang Feng ordered the defenders of Shangzhou and Jinzhou to retreat to Raofengguan, and also ordered Wu Jie to lead troops to reinforce Raofengguan. Wu Jie asked that his younger brother Wu Lin go with him, and Tang Feng agreed.
