It wasn't until the moment when Song Jiang drank the poisoned wine and died that he finally understood that it was not himself who dominated Liangshan, but someone else.
This person seems to be an ordinary minion, but he secretly manipulates everything. With his excellent resourcefulness and action, he gradually expanded his influence in Liangshan, and "played Song Jiang and others around"!
At critical moments, he can always put forward ideas that convince everyone and help Liang Shan overcome one difficulty after another. It's a pity that Song Jiang didn't realize that he was actually just a puppet, but he was actually in power who acted in a low-key manner and didn't show his edge!
So who is this person who can play such a good move?
The real brain of Yangsan
Liangshan was originally led by the Xiushi Wang Lun, but his position would be threatened only by virtue of his low spirit, jealousy and jealousy, and not allowing too brave people to ascend the mountain.
This can be seen from Lin Chong's uphill appearance, when Lin Chong wanted to defect to Liangshan because he was killed, Wang Lun immediately made it difficult for him to kill people within three days to show his loyalty. As a result, Lin Chong really did it, although Wang Lun didn't want him to enter the village, but because he had already made a promise, he had to give up.
When Chao Gai and others came to vote, Wang Lun excused himself again. At the critical moment, Wu used a plot to let Lin Chong and Wang Lun fight and support Chao Gai to become the leader.
Since then, Liangshan has opened a new chapter, Wu used his strategy, so that Lin Chong and Wang Lun had a quarrel, after the two fought, Wang Lun had no prestige, and everyone elected Chao Gai to the throne.
Therefore, it can be said that Wu Yong's character is extremely crucial, and he is the advancing role of the story of Shuibo Liangshan. He was born in a scholarly family, was exceptionally bright from an early age, and later received a good education, and was a well-known talent.
should have done a lot, but the Song Dynasty was corrupt, and he was killed by traitors in the exam, and his good future was disappointed. Wu Yong was born smart, and pampered, he was a rare talent in the world, but because of bad luck and hopeless fame, he had to find another way to make a living.
Wu Yongxue is rich in five cars, and the champion has been locked, but the powerful minister Cai Jing slandered his name during the discussion, saying that "Wu Yong" was unlucky, and the emperor believed it to be true and did not record it for life.
After Wu Yong returned to his hometown, he met a mysterious old man and learned the ability to strategize. Later, Wu Yong taught at Chao Gai, and the relationship between the two became deeper. Knowing about the birth of the Gang, Wu Yong took the initiative to offer advice, contact capable people, and use tactics to win the Gang.
Afterwards, everyone was forced to flee to Liangshan, and Wu Yong conspired again to support Chao Gai as the master, while he was hidden behind the scenes. From this point, it can be seen that it is not simple for Wu to use this person!
At first, Wu Yong saw Chao Gai's righteousness, so he joined his disciples, and the two were like-minded. In the matter of the birth gang, Wu used the strategy to cover the strength, and finally won the outline. After repeated battles, Wu Yongqian gave in to others on the surface, but in fact manipulated the overall situation.
It can be said that the prosperity of Liangshan depends on Wu Yong's planning. He is both wise and brave, and he is the brain of Liangshan, so that a group of samurai can unite and exert strength.
Wu Yong can also be regarded as a virtuous talent in the Song Dynasty, and his talent is useless, so he has to hide in the cottage, but it is a pity that he can't reach it.
Liang Shan's career, Meng Wu used the plan, to succeed. On the surface, it seems to be a group of reckless martial artists, but Wu Yong is in charge at the key point, which can be said to complement each other with intelligence and bravery.
Wu Yong did not show his edge, and secretly promoted the growth of Liangshan. Although the heroes are brave, if there is no Wu to use the mastermind, it is difficult to unite and succeed.
He was like-minded with Chao Gai and others, supported Liangshan, and made it grow stronger day by day. The surface is arbitrary, the inside is smart, and the perfect combination of intelligence and bravery is the root of the changes in Liangshan.
It's a pity that even if he is good friends with Chao Gai, Chao Gai still forgets that "good birds choose trees to perch", and Wu Yong will eventually "defect" to others!
In the midst of strategizing - Wu used the wisdom in Liangshan
Wu Yong, among the many leaders of Liangshan, is not the most powerful person, but he has been manipulating the pattern of Liangshan behind his back.
At the beginning, Chao Gai took the lead in laying a foundation in Liangshan and gathered a group of heroes, and Wu Yong followed Chao Gai and gave him advice. Chao Gai has a straightforward personality, he just wants this group of brothers to have a place to settle down, he has no ambitions, and he doesn't want to do anything big.
Seeing this, Wu Yong knew in his heart that it was far from enough to just stay at this step, and began to secretly observe other candidates.
At this time, Song Jiang was sent to Jiangzhou, and everyone in Liangshan went to the rescue, so Song Jiang joined Liangshan and became the second master. As soon as Wu Yong looked at Song Jiang, he knew that this was a character, with organizational leadership ability, and loyalty and patriotism, which was exactly what Wu wanted.
So Wu Yong began to secretly get close to Song Jiang, and the two were like-minded and ready to join forces to build Liangshan.
During the attack on Zengtou City, Chao Gai did not listen to Wu Yong's dissuasion, was ambushed, and unfortunately died. After Chao Gai's death, Song Jiang naturally took over the position of the big boss.
Wu Yong secretly rejoiced that the candidate he had been looking for had finally sat in this position.
But Wu Yong also knew that it was not good for him to let Song Jiang have too much power, so he personally went down the mountain and took the "Jade Qilin" Lu Junyi to Liangshan, and fought against Song Jiang, so that Liangshan formed a three-legged situation.
It can be said that although Chao Gai and Song Jiang are the masters on the surface, the person who really makes decisions and strategizes is actually Wu Yong. By constantly adjusting Liangshan's personnel layout, Wu Yong has been secretly promoting Liangshan's development in the direction he had in mind.
Wu Yong did not have the highest force among the people of Liangshan, but he had extraordinary patience and foresight, and was able to make good use of everyone's advantages. When Chao Gai was in charge, he gave a strategy, and after Song Jiang was in charge, he checked and balanced power and won over important roles.
It is the wisdom of Wu Yong that makes Liang Shan grow gradually, and he is the key person who really leads the development of the story.
The tragic fate of the Liangshan brothers
The Liangshan brothers got together at first, and under the banner of "doing the right thing for heaven", they repeatedly defeated the officers and soldiers of the imperial court. For a time, the momentum was huge, and it was difficult for the imperial court to suppress it.
Many heroes on Liangshan were forced by the government to go up the mountain. They wanted to do justice for themselves by rebelling against the imperial court.
However, the situation in Yangsan is becoming increasingly embarrassing. A few victories and slogans alone cannot hide that they are essentially a bunch of bandits. Wanting to rely on such a force to overthrow the imperial court is tantamount to a fool's dream.
Under these circumstances, Wu Yong realized that he had to plan a way out for everyone, so he reached a consensus with Song Jiang and accepted the imperial court's recruitment.
But after Zhao'an, it was discovered that the imperial court was not sincere at all. Cai Jing and Gao Yu designed Liangshan to participate in the war one after another, and a large number of brothers died. Even Song Jiang was poisoned, which was unexpected.
Knowing that the tide is turning, many choose to leave. In the end, only 27 people were left to return to the imperial court. Liangshan's dream was shattered, and the brothers had a tragic fate.
Among them, Wu Yong, as the mastermind behind the scenes, is also to blame. He single-handedly promoted Zhao'an and brought Liangshan to a dead end. Although on the surface, he only assisted Song Jiang, most of the major events were manipulated by Wu Yong.
It wasn't until the moment of his death that Song Jiang realized that he was just a pawn used by Wu Yong. He naively believed that he could rely on the imperial court, but he also buried Liangshan and his siblings because of this.
Wu Yong also felt deeply guilty, and perhaps foresaw that he would not escape death, so he hanged himself in front of Song Jiang's tomb as a sign of mourning and repentance.
This history is full of fatalism. The heroes of Liangshan originally had ideals, but they were destroyed by the ruthless reality. Their fate, after all, cannot escape the encirclement and interception of the powerful. This also became a portrayal of the darkness of feudal society.
However, as we reflect on this history, we should also see the other side.
The heroes of Liangshan are not completely righteous people. Many of them were forced to go up the mountain in desperation, and many of them were bullies who bullied the people for officials. After the Battle of Peach Blossom Mountain, Liangshan was even more blatant in gathering crowds. Because of this, it is difficult for them to gain popular support.
Of course, there is no unity within Yangsan. Lin Chong, Dai Zong and others have always disagreed with Song Jiang and would rather leave than surrender. This weakened Liangshan's power to a certain extent. Song Jiang and Wu Yong were too conceited, and they also underestimated Cai Jing's viciousness.
After the failure of Zhao'an, the remnants of Liangshan still made great achievements. This shows that their power has not been completely destroyed, but the political environment does not allow for them. If it weren't for the traitor's calculations, maybe the ending would have been different.
The fate of the Liangshan brothers is tragic, but they are not entirely innocent. We should not simply reduce it to the failure of the opposition between good and evil, but should look at the inevitable result of many factors.
The enlightenment left to us by this period of history is that in a complex social environment, the contradiction between ideals and reality is inevitable, and only by striving to move forward can we not waste the blood of many lives poured into it.
Wu has spent his life's work in exchange for another darker position in the game. He thought he had reached the top, but he knew that there were even higher peaks on the peak. He thought he had played this game, but he didn't know that he was also a pawn in someone else's hands.
His ending is exactly what he said: If you want to add sin, there is no excuse. When Song Jiang was given poisoned wine, did he also experience the despair and helplessness of the other brothers before they died? Fate makes people, and today's perpetrators may become victims tomorrow.
Perhaps, all this is in Cai Jing's plan. Wu Yong is just a pawn for him to make Song Jiang obedient, and he will discard it when he runs out. Then who knows who is secretly moving this bumpy chess game in the court?
