Most readers who have watched Water Margin think that Li Jun has the best ending, leading Tong Wei, Tong Meng and Fei Bao to build a country overseas, which can be called a good ending of Liangshan's phenomenon.
We often say that no one succeeds casually, and Li Jun's achievements have a lot to do with his own ability. There is an ability in him that other heroes cannot match, that is, divergent thinking.
Divergent thinking refers to a diffusion state of thinking mode presented by the brain when thinking, which is mainly characterized by three characteristics: fluency, flexibility and uniqueness.
Let's take a look at how these characteristics manifest themselves in Li Jun:
First, fluency
Fluency refers to the trait of the ability to generate a large number of thoughts. Li Jun is one of the three tyrants of Jieyang, but his ability to be the first among the three tyrants has a lot to do with his cognition, and he pays more attention to the trends of the rivers and lakes.
If you want to make friends with celebrities, then at least you need to know the direction of celebrities, and Li Jun has a thorough understanding of Song Jiang's movements.
He heard from an old acquaintance that Song Jiang sent Jiangzhou to Jiangzhou, and it was expected that he would pass through his door, so he started waiting early, and it took four or five days in a row, although there were some small episodes in the middle, but finally he finally met Song Jiang, and thus took the express train to strengthen himself.
It also shows that Li Jun himself usually pays attention to collecting information about the rivers and lakes, especially the trends of celebrities, as long as he has the opportunity, he will not miss it.
Besides, Taihu Lake is not like Li Kui, who follows Song Jiang with one mind and never has two hearts, Li Jun acts when he sees the opportunity, and he does not reject new possibilities.
Therefore, he formed a friendship with Fei Bao and others, and promised future cooperation opportunities, and planned a route for himself in advance.
Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, which also reflects the vitality and fluency of Li Jun's thinking.
Second, flexibility
Flexibility refers to the trait of the ability to change the direction of thinking. Li Jun was Song Jiang's confidant, and he went to Liangshan for Song Jiang.
After Chao Gai's death, Song Jiang was ranked, and Li Jun ranked 26th, in charge of the Liangshan Water Army, but among the eight leaders of the water army, there were five in the Jieyang department and three in the Chao Gai department, how to coordinate such a relationship?
Take 94 back, Li Jun and Zhang Shun guarded Beixinqiao together, Zhang Shun proposed that he sneak into Hangzhou City from Yongjinmen and set fire, Li Jun responded to attack Shuimen, and Song Jiang's army swarmed up to besiege Hangzhou.
Zhang Shun wanted to change the battle plan on his own, Li Jun first persuaded him, but after it was ineffective, he proposed to report to Song Jiang before acting, while Zhang Shun proposed to attack and report at the same time, which was more efficient.
In the end, Li Jun compromised and acted according to Zhang Shun's opinion.
At the moment of the great enemy, infighting is naturally unavoidable, so Li Jun's general knowledge, grasping the advance and retreat, and compromising when appropriate is also a solution.
And although Li Jun went to Liangshan for Song Jiang, Song Jiang actually didn't reuse him.
For example, when Gao Yu attacked Liangshan, he transferred Liu Menglong, a professional naval army, but Liangshan made an order that Liu Tang would lead the naval army, ahead of Li Jun.
Another example is that during the expedition to Fangla, the navy went down the Yangtze River and attacked Jiangyin and Taicang until the coast. When sending troops, another infantry general - Shi Xiu was placed in front of the commander Li Jun.
But Li Jun, whether with Liu Tang or Shi Xiu, cooperated very well.
Obviously, Li Jun is also aware of Song Jiang's trust in him, so he also pays attention to communication with Song Jiang.
For example, he and Shi Xiu commanded troops along the river to subdue Jiangyin and Taicang, and after the operation was completed, he immediately went to Suzhou to report to Song Jiang in person, and asked Song Jiang for instructions on the next step.
After accepting the task of bypassing Taihu Lake and exploring the way to the south, he sent others to replace Tong Wei and Tong Meng, and handled things appropriately and standardly.
It is not difficult to see from this that Li Jun shows flexibility in it. But perhaps it was also because Song Jiang's trust in him was limited, so in the end he chose to leave.
Third, uniqueness
Uniqueness refers to the ability to generate new and unusual thoughts. This characteristic could not be more obvious in Li Jun, that is, his overseas nation.
Although the owner of Liangshan Cottage has gone through three times, none of them can give Liangshan a good ending, although Song Jiang is highly capable, thoughtful and insightful, but after all, he can't jump out of the framework of the monarch and his ministers, and Li Jun is different.
They built ships, sailed out from the port of Taicang, surrendered to foreign countries, and later became the lords of Siam. Tong Wei, Fei Bao and others have also done foreign official positions, which seems to be another world.
The idea of shipbuilding to go to sea to open up a new world is very peculiar, not only out of the constraints of the original circle, but also for its own development to expand the space.
If Liangshan asked Li Jun to be the owner of the village, it would not be a good idea.
Interestingly, Chao Gai and other seven people gathered to do a big thing, that is, to rob ill-gotten gains, and similarly, Li Jun and other seven people also did a big thing, which was to open up another new world.
Compared with the two, the judgment is made from a high level, which shows that Li Jun is not ordinary.
The above three characteristics are what makes Li Jun great, what do you think?
