The Song army was very brave and diligent. Almost the entire army was wiped out and they won a complete victory. The war took place on the 24th of the ninth lunar month in 1130. The commander-in-chief of the Song Dynasty was Zhang Jun, and the commander-in-chief of the Jin Dynasty was Zong Fu. With Zong Bi as the assistant, Lou Shi as the commander-in-chief of the left wing, and Lou Shi as the commander-in-chief of the right wing, they crossed the Luoshui River westward. After the two sides encountered each other, the Jin army attacked first. Lou Shi picked three thousand cavalrymen with soil bags, filled the swamp, and rushed towards the Song Army. The Song Army commanded Liu Qian to command the Fifth Route Army to respond. Zong Bi took the lead and showed no sign of weakness. He surrounded the left wing army with his troops, and General Han Chang was shot in the eye. He pulled out the arrow, blocked the wound with soil, and fought bravely. Jin Wushu failed to break out of the siege several times. The Song army has obvious advantages.
At this time, the Song Army sent a small force to sneak around behind the enemy, preparing for a sneak attack to form a pincer attack. At this moment, Lou Shi led the army and arrived, just in time to see more than a thousand Song soldiers sneaking across the deep ditch and trying to attack Jin Ying. Regardless of his serious illness, he lurked in a blind spot, then led hundreds of cavalry to challenge and defeated the Song army. Seeing that the sneak attack failed, the commander-in-chief of the Song army ordered an all-out attack. The battle lasted from noon to dusk. After six major confrontations, Lou Shi fought hard and rescued Zong Bi, causing the Song soldiers to gradually collapse on the right wing. Song Ling saw that the Jin army had regained its strength, retreated before the battle, turned around and fled. The road army was defeated and then the whole army was annihilated. Huizhe left his headquarters without permission. The soldiers fled when they saw the dust, and the army collapsed. This sign was not rolled up, and the crowd shouted, let’s celebrate Zhao first! At this time, it should be Wang Yan who said, defeat all the way, lose all five ways.
It is somewhat certain that the Song army will retreat to Danzhou. Song people recorded that the Jin people won and the military resources they could not obtain were immeasurable. The actual situation is that the 8th Jin Army also suffered heavy losses and had no strength to pursue it. On the 25th, at the grand celebration banquet held by the Jin army, Wanyan General Mansion praised Lou Shi, saying that Lou Shi took the lead even though he was seriously ill. How many famous generals were there in ancient times who were as good at fighting as he was? Say, give Lou Shi gold, silver, wine, fine armor, war horses, etc. After years of hard work, Lou Shi became ill from overwork. Exhausted from fighting, his condition got worse. On December 9 of the same year, he died of illness in Jingzhou at the age of fifty-three. His position was succeeded by Zong Bi.
