In the official history, what is the true ending of Song Jiang?

Song Jiang was not surrendered by the imperial court, but surrendered in defeat, and Zhang Shuye defeated Song Jiang with only a thousand men, which shows that Song Jiang's strength could not be sent to conquer Fang La's million-strong army.

Moreover, Song Jiang surrendered in February of the third year of Xuanhe, at this time, Fang Lajie was defeated and retreated, Hangzhou was lost, and in March, Shezhou, Muzhou, Xinzhou and other places were also lost one after another, and Fang La was captured in April, and Song Jiang was not needed to crusade against Fang La.

Historical records also record that Hou Meng, the governor of Bozhou at that time, proposed to recruit Song Jiang and let him conquer Fang La, but Song Huizong did not accept his opinion. In 1939, it was recorded in the "Epitaph of the Late Song Dynasty Martial Arts Doctor, the Second General of Hedong Zhegong (Can Be Saved)" that after Zhe Ke existed and suppressed the rebellion of Fang La, he was ordered to capture Song Jiang.

The Japanese scholar Miyazaki put forward the theory of "two Song Jiang", he said: "The Song Jiang captured in May was the grass Kou Song Jiang, while it was the general Song Jiang who quelled the Fangla uprising from April to June." Therefore, "Caokou Song Jiang" and "Song Jiang, the general of the Song Dynasty who crusaded against Fang La" are two completely different people.

There is indeed such a character as Song Jiang in history, but his temperament is not like what is written in the Water Margin. In history, Song Jiang was ambitious and wanted to be the king, so there was such a thing as the Song Jiang uprising, Song Jiang adopted a guerrilla war to stay, and was finally defeated by Zhang Shuye, that is, the Yuncheng Taishou in the Water Margin. Therefore, Song Jiang in history was killed in battle, not killed, as for the Water Margin; There are 108 heroes in Liangshan, most of which may be fake, but they may also be written according to the characters of the time.

What is the true ending of Song Jiang in the official history?

"Water Margin" is one of the four famous works in our country, which tells the story of some heroes led by Song Jiang in the Northern Song Dynasty, because they were persecuted by the imperial court at that time, and they were not allowed to rise up in Shuibo Liangshan and rob the rich to help the poor. In the ** of this "Water Margin", the endings of those heroes in Liangshan are not very good. Especially the ending of Song Jiang in **, which makes people more indignant, so what is the real ending of Song Jiang in the official history?

01, Song Jiang source

Let's start with Song Jiang's life experience, Song Jiang is actually not as powerful as ** and in the TV series. Song Jiang's family has lived by the water for generations, and they don't farm, but barely survive by fishing and picking lotus roots. Song Jiang has a great advantage, that is, he likes to help others.

There was a saying among the people of the Song Dynasty that as long as he asked Song Jiang for help, he would definitely do his best. At that time, the finances of the Song Dynasty had already begun to decline, and the financial resources were not good, so they could only rely on increasing taxes. At that time, the imperial court stipulated that anyone who fished or picked lotus root in rivers and lakes had to increase taxes, and Song Jiang was more enthusiastic and often subsidized others.

The same is true for other people from all walks of life, plus the court is in charge, and the heroes led by Song Jiang gathered in Liangshan and began to confront the imperial court, many people heard about this matter, and they also joined in one after another, and Shuibo Liangshan slowly grew into the biggest hidden danger of the Song Dynasty at that time, becoming a thorn in the side of the imperial court.

02, Song Jiang's desire for fame

When it comes to the ending of Song Jiang, Zhao'an has to be mentioned, the ancient people took the name very seriously, under Song Jiang, Hu Yanzhuo and Lu Junyi were very eager for Zhao'an. Some of the other heroes and heroes are from the people, and it doesn't matter to them, but there are also a large number of people who were forced to go to Liangshan, such as Wu Song and Lu Zhishen, who are very opposed. So when Fang La was conquered later, many people were reluctant to go, but they still went because of brotherhood.

Their ending is tragic and regrettable.

03, Song Jiang ending

There are many kinds of folklore about the ending of Song Jiang. One is in the battle with Uncle Zhang, the heroes led by Song Jiang were subdued by Uncle Zhang with a strategy, Uncle Zhang did not show mercy to his subordinates, and directly killed the heroes led by Song Jiang, and finally buried them at the foot of Baihu Mountain.

After pacifying Fangla, Song Jiang rebelled again. Under these circumstances, the imperial court sent a young general who had just made a contribution to the campaign against Fangla, to pacify Song Jiang. In just a few months, Song Jiang was defeated by Zhe Kecun, and at this time Song Jiang wanted to recruit again, but the great trouble of Fang La in the imperial court had been eliminated by Song Jiang, and the imperial court no longer needed Song Jiang and others, and he didn't believe them anymore, and then Song Jiang was killed by Zhekecun.

"Water Margin", one of the "Four Great Masterpieces", should be familiar to everyone, right? Especially the leader of the 108 heroes of Liangshan - Song Jiang. He is also the one with the most complex behaviors and thoughts, mixed reviews, and the most controversial among the 108 heroes in Liangshan.

In addition to being a character in the Ming Dynasty's ** "Water Margin", Song Jiang did have a real Songjiang uprising in history. At that time, the size of their ranks was not very large, so there are not many records of them in history, and there is even a great debate about the time of the uprising.

Later, many people only learned about them through ** "Water Margin". Later, some people wanted to try to uncover the real Song Jiang in history, but after all, historical figures are different from ** characters, and future generations can only rely on sporadic official history and uneven wild history to speculate and restore the historical truth.

Song Jiang in history was just a rogue compared to Fang La, and his strength was very small. In the Northern Song Dynasty, there were basically some small-scale peasant uprisings, which could not stir up any big waves, and the uprising led by Song Jiang was also one of them, and the cause of their rebellion at that time was that the imperial court in order to increase income, the fertile land and wasteland were nationalized, and the rent and tax were increased, even if they went into the mountains to reclaim and fish in the lake, they had to pay taxes.

Many people could not afford the heavy taxes and could not survive. **The rendering of the characters in "Water Margin" is well-known to many people now.

Although Song Jiang was surrendered by Zhang Shuye, after the Fang La uprising, Song Jiang's team rebelled again, and Zhang Shuye was later promoted to Qingzhou. Later, Song Jiang and others were exterminated by a military general named Zhen Kecun.

Finally, in 1121, Song Jiang was recruited, but in history, Song Jiang was suppressed in 1122, so some people speculated that Song Jiang was recruited and continued to rebel against the imperial court, so it was destroyed in 1122.

There are also people who say: Now there is a tomb called Hao Han Qi in Lianyungang, and there is a local saying that Song Jiang and the rebel army did not surrender, but were killed by Zhang Shuye, and finally buried in Hao Han Qi.

Therefore, Song Jiang in history may have been just a bandit leader who robbed his house and house, and he was not recruited, but surrendered to the government after being cornered, and was later killed by the government!

At the beginning, Song Jiang's uprising was only 36 people, entrenched in Liangshanbo, but his peasant uprising only ended in a decent way, and finally Song Jiang was broken and surrendered to Zhang Shuye.

In real history, Song Jiang's ending was very tragic, because he was framed after his conversion.

What is the true ending of Song Jiang in the official history?

Song Jiang's biography is as follows:
