He continually recovered lost lands, vowing to drive straight to Huanglongfu, but was forcibly recalled by twelve gold tablets and killed. [Who] Yue Fei was an outstanding national hero of serving the country with pure loyalty, lofty martial virtue, called the god of war. Emperor Gaozong and Chancellor Qin Hui out of partial-state private interest and fear of military power jointly killed the loyal good as the culprits. [How] The Yue Family Army's resistance defense definitively shattered the myth of the Jin invincible steppe cavalry and successfully secured Jiangnan society's development safety. Yue Fei also became the Huaxia nation's supreme symbol of loyal-courage moral integrity and state moral integrity.
