Special redirect NGINX Wordpress removing last segment

Question

I need some guidance on how to redirect this the proper way...

I have a site on nginx and a bunch of malformed URL's (crawled by Search Console) that I need to redirect with 301.

My CMS is Wordpress and I need to redirect these URL's to /post_url/ removing all sufixes after 1 segment (/post_url/).

Malformed URL's examples:

• https://www.example.com/post_url/tag/tag-one
• https://www.example.com/post_url/tag/tag-two
• https://www.example.com/post_url/tag/tag-three
• etc.

I also need to preserve all tag's URL working like so => (https://www.example.com/tag/whatever), and I have no clue on how to do it...

Adding this relevant question https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/26388/how-can-i-create-custom-url-routes . There are other options such as using htaccess or a plugin to perform the redirects. Here is another relevant question for nginx, How to redirect requests to a different domain/url with nginx .
