based on fact

Historically, Wang Jun did exist. In historical sources such as the History of Song, his deeds are recorded. For example, the Biography of Yue Fei records: "Initially, Qin Hui expelled Zhao Ding. Yue Fei would sigh when talking to guests, and he took it upon himself to recover the lost territories, refusing to agree to peace. When he read Qin Hui's memorial, reaching the phrase 'Virtue has no constant teacher; goodness is the teacher,' he hated its deceit and said angrily: 'The great bond between ruler and minister is rooted in human nature. How can a minister bear to deceive his lord to his face?' Wuzhu wrote to Qin Hui: 'You plead for peace day and night, but Yue Fei is planning to take Hebei. You must kill Yue Fei before peace can be achieved.' Qin Hui also thought that if Yue Fei were not killed, he would ultimately obstruct the peace negotiations, and disaster would befall himself, so he vigorously plotted to kill him. Because the censor-in-chief Wan Qi Xie had a grudge against Yue Fei, Qin Hui instigated him to impeach Yue Fei, and also instigated the vice censor-in-chief He Zhu and the attendant censor Luo Ruyi to submit memorials one after another, generally saying: 'This spring, when the Jin army attacked Huaixi, Yue Fei went only as far as Shu and Qi without advancing. Later, together with Zhang Jun, he stationed troops on the Huai River, and again wanted to abandon Shanyang without defending it.' Yue Fei submitted many memorials requesting to resign from the military command, and soon returned the two military governorships, and was appointed as the supervisor of the Wanshou Temple with the right to attend court. Qin Hui's wish was not yet fulfilled, so he also instructed Zhang Jun to coerce Wang Gui and induce Wang Jun to falsely accuse Zhang Xian of plotting to restore Yue Fei's military command." In the novel The Story of Yue Fei, Chapter 57 describes: "Now there was a treacherous minister in the court, surnamed Wang, named Jun, originally a running dog of Qin Hui. Because he flattered Qin Hui so well, he was directly promoted to commander-in-chief. He also memorialized to the court, and was sent with three thousand troops to escort grain to Zhuxian Town, where he was to supervise the military provisions. This was originally a promotion. One day, on the way, he happened to meet that Hawk-eyed Prince leading troops. Hawk-eyed Prince raised his sword and rode out, shouting: 'What troops are you? Quickly deliver the grain to me, and I will spare your dog's life!' Wang Jun said: 'I am Wang Jun, commander-in-chief under the Great Song Emperor! What barbarian are you, daring to come here?' Hawk-eyed Prince said: 'I am the marshal Hawk-eyed Prince under the Fourth Prince of the Great Jin Kingdom! I have come to Lin'an to capture your Southern Barbarian emperor. Today I will first use you to test my blade.' After saying this, he struck with his sword. Wang Jun had no choice but to raise his sword to meet it. In less than seven or eight rounds, the barbarian general was fierce, and Wang Jun could not withstand him. He could only turn his horse and flee in defeat, with Hawk-eyed Prince chasing after him."
