We all know that there are 108 good men in Liangshan, and we are more familiar with them, that is, Song Jiang, Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, and a few other people who have spent more ink to describe, because they are indeed more courageous and strategic than others, but it does not mean that the people who have not been introduced are mediocre people, there is a good man with the least sense of existence on Liangshan, there is no half a line in the whole book, but Liangshan can not do without him, he is Tao Zongwang.
Tao Zongwang was the only peasant on Liangshan, nicknamed "Nine-tailed Turtle", he was originally an honest farmer, because he admired Song Jiang, so when Song Jiang was sentenced to be beheaded in Jiangzhou, he teamed up with Ou Peng and two other people, and the four planned to go to the law field to save Song Jiang, although later Song Jiang was rescued by others in advance, but because of this, they became acquainted with Song Jiang and opened the life path of Shangliang Mountain.
Tao Zongwang ranked seventy-fifth in Liangshan Good Hanli, and after going up the mountain, he was mainly responsible for supervising the water defense of the walled city wall, he paved roads and built canals, and surrounded Liangshan with airtight and impenetrable, resisting many encirclements and suppressions by the imperial court. Tao Zongwang is an irreplaceable technical talent in the cottage and has made great contributions to Liangshan's defense system.
In addition to building Liangshan's defense system, he also followed the Song Dynasty in the southern expedition to the north, and the results were remarkable. Because he was born as a farmer and usually did rough work, he exercised his strength, and the weapon he used was the turtle iron shovel, which was the tool of an authentic farmer. When Gao Li sent Hu Yanzhuo to attack Liangshan, Liangshan suffered heavy casualties, and it was Tao Zongwang who led a group of men and horses to lure the enemy to the hook and sickle needle to defeat Hu Yanzhuo's army. After Song Jiang accepted the imperial court's offer, he suppressed Tian Ding and destroyed Wang Qing, and Tao Zongwang did not fall a single battle.
When Tian Was destroyed, he and Gong Wang, Ding Desun and others entered the Palace of the Jin King of Weisheng City from Hou zaimen, and when Tian Ding, the crown prince, committed suicide, when he was fighting Wang Qing, he attacked Wanzhou with his army and built weapons to attack the city, which successfully took Wanzhou. Although Tao Zongwang made great contributions to Liangshan during his lifetime, his death was a bit miserable, he was shot by a random arrow during the conquest of Fang La, and he was also the first of the 108 good men in Liangshan to die.
