As one of the four famous works of ancient China, "Water Margin" is the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients and a rare cultural treasure they left us. "Water Margin" tells the story of the last years of the Song Dynasty, the king has no way, the traitors are chaotic, and the people's lives are miserable, many people have fallen into the grass for various reasons, walked to Liangshan and formed a force that can compete with the imperial court.
In the story, there are many classic heroes, such as Song Jiang, Lin Chong, Li Kui, Wu Yong and others. Of course, in a sense, there are also some people who are not very famous, but they are also very powerful, such as Sun Li.
Sun Li was a native of Qiongzhou (present-day Hainan Island), eight feet tall, skilled in kung fu, made a long gun and a bamboo steel whip, rode a black horse, known as "Sick Lieutenant Chi", was the elder brother of Sun Xin. Sun Li's younger sister was Gu Dajie, who had two cousins, named Xie Zhen and Xie Bao, who were framed and imprisoned by Mao Taigong, Mao Zhongyi, Bao Ji and others. Later, because of the rescue of these two people, Sun Li robbed the prison, and in desperation, he could only choose to defect to Liangshan Po and make a great contribution in the battle against Zhujiazhuang.
At the time of liangshan's great gathering, Sun Li ranked thirty-ninth, corresponding to the brave star, and the Liangshan Majun Xiao Biao general and far out of the sentinel leader second place. After Liangshan accepted zhao'an, Sun Li followed Song Jiangnan in the northern war and established a lot of Zhang Gong, such as killing Kou Zhenyuan, killing Sun Ji, capturing Mountain View Long alive, killing Fang Qiong, killing Zhang Wei, and capturing Lei Jiong alive. Very fortunately, after Liangshan conquered Fang La, there were countless deaths and injuries, but Sun Li became one of the surviving leaders, and was given the title of Fengwu Yilang and returned to Dengzhou as an official.
Obviously, from Sun Li's exploits, it is not difficult to see that this person is a brave and good warrior. What is even more rare is that Sun Li is also a person with outstanding abilities in all aspects, he can not only make guns, but also whips, can also shoot arrows, can also tame inferior horses, and even can fight with Hu Yanzhuo for thirty rounds.
Hu Yanzhuo is a well-known hero of horse warfare, but Sun Li can play against him to such a point that it can be seen that Sun Li has a good performance in equestrianism. From this side, it also reflects sun li's strength, which is far higher than its ranking. For example, Shi Jin and others before Sun Li's ranking, there is a high probability that they will not be able to beat him. But what is very strange is that why is Sun Li so aggrieved?
In fact, it is also very easy to understand, because Sun Li is a member of the Dengzhou Sect. In order to resist the attack of the imperial court, Song Jiang had absorbed many forces, and the Dengzhou faction was one of them. Compared with other factions, Song Jiang had no good feelings for the people of the Dengzhou Sect, so it was difficult for Sun Li to gain Song Jiang's liking.
The inability to gain the favor of the supreme leader restricted Sun Li's development. In addition, because Sun Lishang Liangshan was active, he needed to work hard to be able to stand firm, so there was a little rush to make a quick profit. In order to make meritorious contributions, Sun Li even helped Liangshan kill his own disciple Luan Tingyu. Most of the good people in Liangshan are people who are righteous, and they naturally have no good feelings for Sun Li's behavior.
That is to say, in a sense, a person's ability does not mean how high he can go, and many times it is necessary to combine the character and life background to see the problem, in order to be more comprehensive.
