The Water Margin "Water Margin" is a long chapter written by Shi Nai'an in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty (most of the signatures of the existing journals have one of Shi Nai'an and Luo Guanzhong, or both).

The book artistically reflects the whole process of the Songjiang Uprising in Chinese history from its occurrence, development to failure, by describing the grand story of the heroes of Liangshan resisting oppression, the growth of Shuibo Liangshan, and the recruitment of the Song Dynasty, as well as the conquest for the Song Dynasty after being recruited and the eventual demise.

It profoundly reveals the social roots of the uprising, enthusiastically praises the resistance struggle of the heroes of the uprising and their social ideals, and also concretely reveals the internal historical reasons for the failure of the uprising.

Lin Chonghuo and Wang Lun.

Wang Lun, known as the white-clothed Xiushi, the early leader of Shuibo Liangshan, was not right-hearted, scheming, worried that his status in the cottage would be reduced, and did not allow Lin Chong, Chao Gai, Ruan's Sanxiong, Wu Yong, Liu Tang, etc. to join the gang, and after being killed by Lin Chong, Chao Gai was pushed to be the leader of Liangshan.

"Water Margin".Wang Lun's nickname is the white-clothed Xiushi.

Wang Lun is a character in ** "Water Margin", with the funding of the little whirlwind Chai Jin, he became the first owner of Liangshanbo, known as the "white-clothed Xiushi", and there are Du Qian, Song Wan, Zhu Gui and other leaders under his command. But he is narrow-minded and can hardly tolerate people with greater ability than him, and repeatedly makes it difficult for Lin Chong, who came to defect.

Chao Gai and others, later at Chao Gai's send-off banquet, were killed by Lin Chong.

Story:

Wang Lun was the owner of the village in the early days of Liangshanbo, and had two leaders, Du Qian and Song Wan. But unable to become one of the one hundred and eight heroes, Wang Lun was jealous of his ability, but he was thirsty for talent, but because he was afraid that Lin Chong, who was strong in martial arts, would replace his position in Liangshan, he first sent two silver and then asked Lin Chong to kill people within three days to surrender his name, and as a result, Lin Chong met the blue-faced beast who came to him.

Yang Zhi and fought with him inseparably.

When Chao Gai and others went up the mountain to join the gang, he refused under the pretext, and Lin Chong used it in Wu.

Under the intellectual stimulation, the fire and Wang Lun. Everyone elected Chao Gai as the master of the cottage, which opened up the situation of Liangshan.

In the Water Margin, the 800 miles of Shuibo Liangshan was originally not Chao Gai's territory, but Wang Lun's territory. It was Chao Gai who robbed the Shengchengang, fled to Liangshan, and met Lin Chong again. When Chao Gai was about to be driven down the mountain by Wang Lun, Lin Chong pulled out his knife and killed Wang Lun.

But this matter is full of many doubts. For example, could it be that the real culprits who caused Wang Lun's death in the Water Margin were really Chao Gai and Lin Chong? In fact, it's not them, but a scheming person.

Let's first revisit the process at that time, when Wang Lun used various excuses, such as saying that a small temple could not accommodate a great god, he just wanted to drive away Chao Gai and others. Just drive it away, and even give Chao Gai a lot of **, isn't this a slap in Chao Gai's face? Chao Gai said at the time that he didn't want to **, so he left.

As we all know, Chao Gai didn't actually want to leave, but at this time, Lin Chong jumped out, and Lin Chong at this time seemed to be a completely different person.

In the entire Water Margin, only this time Lin Chong jumped up. Lin Chong said angrily to Wang Lun, when I first came to Liangshan, you also had this attitude, but I didn't expect to have this attitude towards a big hero like Chao Gai, how can a villain like you be the owner of this village? So Lin Chong grabbed him by the collar, and at this time, a particularly interesting thing happened, what happened?

It was Wu Yong who suddenly shouted: Don't hurt the life of the king's leader! His voice shouted in time, in fact, his "voice" was sowing discord, maybe Lin Chong didn't think of killing Wang Lun at that time, but after he said this, he had this thought.

Therefore, some people say that the real ** who caused Wang Lun's death was Wu Yong, Wu Yong, as Liang Shanbo's military advisor, this person has a bad stomach and is good at engaging in this kind of sowing discord.

But the real ** that caused Wang Lun's death was not Wu Yong. So who is it? This person is Zhu Gui, one of the founding fathers of Liangshan.

Why is Zhu Gui the real ** who caused Wang Lun's death? Because Lin Chong was brought in by Zhu Gui, and this person supports Lin Chong very much, and this person has always been at odds with Wang Lun. It is conceivable that the reason why Zhu Gui brought Lin Chong to Liangshan was actually to suppress Wang Lun through Lin Chong.

It was not Lin Chong and Wu Yong who killed Wang Lun, although Wu Yong saw that Wang Lun didn't want to leave them in Liangshan, so Lin Chong killed Wang Lun, in fact, before they went to Liangshan, they met Zhu Gui in the dry land, and Zhu Gui had long held a grudge against Wang Lun and knew what kind of person Wang Lun was and took them to Liangshan, which finally led Lin Chong to kill Wang Lun and achieve his goal. Therefore, it was Zhu Gui who killed Wang Lun.

Wang Lun, the big boss of Liangshan, was narrow-minded, and seeing that Lin Chong's martial arts were far superior to his own, he deliberately made things difficult, so that he killed people within three days to make a "name for it", and Lin Chong intercepted Yang Zhi, who had lost his official position, and fought hard. Wang Lun came forward to persuade Lin Chong to accept Lin Chong and persuade Yang Zhi to join the gang. However, Yang Zhi was reluctant to join the gang, went to Tokyo, was forced to sell knives due to poverty, killed Niu Er, and confiscated the army to the famous mansion.

Liang Zhongshu saw that Yang Zhi was strong in martial arts, promoted him to the class, and escorted him to the birthday gang of his father-in-law, Cai Jing. There is a good man in Yuncheng County, Shandong Province named Tuota Tianwang Chao Gai, who and Wu Yong, Gongsun Sheng, Ruan Sanxiong and others outwitted the birth gang in Huang Nigang. Unexpectedly, the news leaked, Bai Sheng**, the situation was critical, thanks to the timely rain Song Jiang risked his death to deliver the letter, Zhu Tong, Lei Heng and other headhunters released the way, and only then did they get out of the tiger's mouth.

Chao Gai and others went to Liangshan to join the gang, Lin Chonghuo and Wang Lun, and everyone elected Chao Gai as the leader of the cottage.

Wang Lun, nicknamed the white-clothed Xiushi", is a jealous and narrow-minded artistic example in "Water Margin".

Wang Lun and Du Qian occupied Liangshan Mountain, and specialized in robbing thousands of homes. Lin Chong was hunted down by the government and had nowhere to live because the forage field of the army was burned, and he killed Chapao, Lu Yuhou, Fu'an and others, so he was recommended by Chai Jin to defect to Wang Lun.

Wang Lun is very hypocritical and cunning. He rejected Lin Chong and Chao Gai because of jealousy, but every time he said that he cared about others. Under the persuasion of Du Qian and others, Wang Lun reluctantly accepted Lin Chong;

But when Yang Zhi, who was equivalent to Lin Chong's martial arts, came to the cottage, he killed sheep and set up wine, warmly entertained Yang Zhi and did not ask to stay in the cottage, but Wang Lun took the initiative to persuade Yang Zhi, "It's better to just rest the horse in the small village, weigh the gold and silver, eat wine and meat in a big bowl and be a good man" Lin Chong repeatedly refused, and Yang Zhi took the initiative to stay, this strong contrast is a reflection of Wang Lun's cunning.

The reason why Wang Lun occupies the mountains and falls into the grass is also different from Lin Chong and Chao Gai. Wang Lun was not forced by the government, he didn't want to be an enemy of the government, and he was completely robbing his family. When Chao Gai defected to Wang Lun, he refused to accept Gai, Wu Yong and others had a jealous side, and they also feared the government.

**The characters of "Water Margin", with the funding of the little whirlwind Chai Jin, became the first owner of Liangshan, known as the "white-clothed Xiushi", and there are Du Qian, Song Wan, Zhu Gui and other leaders under his command. But he is narrow-minded and can hardly tolerate people who are greater than him, and repeatedly made it difficult for Lin Chong, Chao Gai and others who came to defect, and then at Chao Gai's send-off banquet, he was caught by Lin Chong. personality traits; Narrow-minded, jealous and jealous.

A little rich is safe, has no ambitions, is a little excluded, and has a small heart.

Well, the author himself used very little pen and ink on him, but it is not difficult for us to see that he was timid and afraid, and after learning that Chao Gai and others had robbed the Birth Gang, he deliberately drove him down the mountain; This person is known to be narrow-minded, he is jealous of his ability, he only thinks about his own status, and does not want anyone to be more prestige than him, the author's intention to describe Wang Lun should be to highlight the difference between Liangshan under the leadership of Wang Lun and under the leadership of Song Jiang Chaogai and others.

Lin Chong's weakness. Wang Lun's jealousy.

Narrow-minded and intolerant of others.

Wang Lun's mistake is that he doesn't know how to let go, he doesn't know how to take a step back, he doesn't know how to attract talents, to put it bluntly, Wang Lun is narrow-minded and has no leadership ability. The biggest mistake Wang Lun made was that he failed to use a talent like Lin Chong for his own use, and it can be said that Wang Lun missed the God-given opportunity.

In fact, the strength of Liangshan under the rule of Wang Lun is very weak, there are no elite soldiers and strong generals, Wang Lun himself is a pedantic talent, several of his henchmen Zhu Gui in the dry land, touching the sky Du Qian, Yunli King Kong Song Wan are all ordinary people with ordinary ability, Wang Lun relies on these few people to occupy 800 miles of water Bo Liangshan is obviously a mistake, it can also be said that Wang Lun's strategy is an extremely negative ostrich policy.

Anyone with greater ability than himself is not used, only people with worse ability than himself, because Wang Lun feels that if he uses someone with greater ability than himself, he will threaten his position as the owner of the village. Under the guidance of this pedantic thinking, Wang Lun had an unwelcome attitude towards Lin Chong and even Chao Gai and other heroes. This misguided and low-level strategy allowed Wang Lun to miss a great opportunity to attract talent for his own use.

When Lin Chong was desperate and came to him, the most important thing Wang Lun should do was to seize the God-given opportunity to treat Lin Chong well and cultivate him as his henchman. With Lin Chong's full assistance to him, Liangshan will inevitably be stronger, but unfortunately Wang Lun is too small-bellied, and there is no room for people at all, Lin Chong's arrival made him panic and tried his best to drive him away. As a result, in the end, not only did he not drive Lin Chong away, but he formed a hatred with Lin Chong.

When Chao Gai and the others defected to him, Wang Lun did not absorb the lessons and repeated the old tricks, and made the previous mistake again, he tried to drive Chao Gai and the others down the mountain again, which led to Lin Chong's outburst. The long-term hostility finally made Lin Chong seize the opportunity, Wang Lun not only failed to keep his position as the owner of the cottage, but also failed to save his own life, and his death was too worthless.

As the saying goes, those who know the times are Junjie, Wang Lun is the kind of master who goes to the dark with a tendon, he doesn't know how to be flexible at all, a typical official fan, he thinks that Liangshan is occupied by him first, and he is the master of Liangshan, which is very wrong. Liangshan is the Liangshan of the strong rather than the Liangshan of the weak, Wang Lun, as a weak person, can take the initiative to let the virtuous if he sees that the situation is not good, which is a policy of abandoning the pawn and protecting the car. If he takes the initiative to give way, he can save his life like Zhu Gui and others, and even be treated preferentially in Liangshan and become a leader who is not in the top position.

Of course, Liangshan was first discovered and occupied by Wang Lun, and he must have spent a lot of effort to create Liangshan, so it was psychologically difficult for him to give up the position of the owner of the village to others. But then again, I can't even save my life, what else do I need to be the owner of the village, and I can't figure out the simple truth of which is more important.

Wang Lun's fault is that Wang Lun didn't put himself in the right position at the beginning, he is the head of the bandits, he occupies the mountain as the king, and there are hundreds of younger brothers under him to follow. Being a bandit is not a highlighter profession, but it is challenging.
