As one of the four famous novels, "Water Margin" has many fans among adults and children.
And the Water Margin has always called these people on Liangshan heroes, and they are doing the right thing for the sky.
But if you really study "Water Margin", you must know that not all the heroes of Liangshan are heroes, and among the heroes of Liangshan, most of the so-called heroes are actually evil.
Are those Liangshan "heroes" who do evil for their own interests really be considered heroes?
The completion of the book "Water Margin" is based on the story of the Songjiang Uprising in the late Northern Song Dynasty.
According to the "Biography of Hou Meng of the Eastern Capital": "Thirty-six people, mainly Song Jiang, rampaged through the Heshuo area, and tens of thousands of Jingdong officials and troops had no one who could resist. ”
In the Song Dynasty, Chen Jun's "Preparation for the Chronicle of the Nine Dynasties" and Xu Mengxin's "Three Dynasties and Northern Alliances" also have similar records.
There are also wild histories that after Song Jiang surrendered to the Song Dynasty, he also participated in the battle of Fangla with the army. It's just that in fact, the rebel army led by Song Jiang did not reach tens of thousands of people in the romance, and even occupied 800 miles of Shuibo Liangshan.
Looking through the history books, you can know that this rebel army has a small number of people but strong combat effectiveness, which is equivalent to each of them being special forces.
It had a great impact among the masses and once posed a certain threat to the local ** of the Song Dynasty.
However, in **, there are a total of 108 heroes in Liangshan, thirty-six Tiangang and seventy-two earthly demons, each with different origins and martial arts.
Among so many people, it is inevitable that there will be a mixture, and some people are not worthy of the name of heroes, and they are even disliked.
Here, a few heroes of Liangshan who are not worthy of being called heroes are proposed:
Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang are a husband and wife in "Water Margin", they opened a black shop at the foot of the cross slope of the big tree in Mengzhou, and the buns sold daily are made of human flesh, which can be said to be killing people and doing all kinds of evil.
The division of labor between the two of them is also very clear, her husband Zhang Qing picks up human meat steamed buns and sells them outside, while the hemp flipping and slaughtering of passing guests are borne by Sun Erniang at home, and Sun Erniang is also handy.
Robbing merchants, suppressing pedestrians, and killing the poor indiscriminately, such indiscriminate killing of innocent people can also be called heroes because they went to Liangshan.
Yang Chun's fame is very small, and people who are not familiar with the Water Margin may not necessarily know him, but he is indeed a hidden star in the seventy-two earths.
It is written in the book: Yang Chun is a member of Puzhou Xie Liangren, who is good at making big poles and knives, born with thin arms and long waists, and is known as the White Flower Snake. He was "forced by the lawsuit" because he was tired, and together with Zhu Wu and Chen Da, he fell into the grass in Shaohua Mountain, Huazhou, and gathered five or seven hundred small minions to rob their homes.
After Yang Chun fell into the grass, his identity was that of a robber, who robbed homes and houses all day long, bullying passing merchants and surrounding villages.
If it is reasonable to say that he fell into the grass because of the oppression of the local court, he was helpless.
But Yang Chun himself quickly got along with this group of robbers, calling him brothers, and even took the lead when attacking the county seat, eager to be the first to attack the county seat and rob it.
He was originally from a car family, and he did service work, but he saw money halfway through the road, so he robbed the guests.
Later, he escaped from prison and went to Qingfeng Mountain in Qingzhou to fall into the grass, and robbed the house with Jinmao Hu Yanshun and white-faced Langjun Zheng Tianshou.
Wang Ying directly broke the jar and became a criminal.
There is a sentence in "Water Margin" that hints at Wang Ying's evil deeds in practice: Wang Ying and the three of them were drunk, so they ordered someone to take Song Jiang's heart and liver to make sobering soup.
Here we can find that Wang Ying cannibalism, this is not a picture depicted for the sake of drama, he has developed a habit of eating people and livers during the time he has fallen into the grass.
When Wang Ying wanted to eat Song Jiang, he said: "Hurry up, children, take off this cow's heart and liver, and make three points of sobering wine and hot and sour soup."
I saw a small minion bring a large copper basin of water and put it in front of Song Jiang. There was a little minion who rolled up his sleeves and held a heart-cutting knife in his hand. The little minion who was carrying the water splashed his hands with water and poured it into Song Jiang's heart.
It turns out that the hearts of mortals are wrapped in blood, and when the cold water is splashed to disperse the blood, and when the heart and liver are taken out, it is crispy and delicious.
When Wang Ying eats human flesh, he must first splash the hot blood that wraps his heart and liver, so that he can have a "crispy" delicious taste, which shows that Wang Ying has a certain degree of attention to the way to eat human flesh, and has a certain history.
Li Kui has always been controversial, some people say that he is like a child, and some people scold him for killing people like a demon.
In the forty-first episode of "Song Jiang Outwitted the Wuwei Army, Zhang Shun Captured Huang Wenbing Alive", Huang Wenbing was arrested and only wanted to die quickly.
But at this time, Li Kui jumped forward and said: I see that he is obese, so he is good to cook. This approach was also approved by Chao Gai.
So Li Kui "cut the sharp knife from his leg first, and the selected one was burned on the charcoal fire in front of him." Cut a piece, burn a piece, and when there is no piece, cut Huang Wenbing".
That's not all, Li Kui "just cut his chest with a knife, took out his heart and liver, and used it to make sobering soup with the leaders."
I have to say that it can be seen from Li Kui's behavior that although the people of Liangshan are good and bad, they never object to this bloody behavior, and think it is common sense.
Du Qian is the master of the second village of Liangshan, and Song Wan is the master of the third village, and the two of them are the founding fathers of Liangshan.
In the early years, together with Wang Lun and Zhu Gui, they laid grass in Liangshan, gathered seven or eight hundred small minions, and robbed houses.
Modern views mostly believe that Song Wan and Du Qian are mediocre and incompetent, and they are often listed in the "Top Ten Mediocre Talents in Liangshan". It is also believed that they were the spiritual leaders of the early Liangshan minions.
Either way, however, none of this changes their identity as thieves. The daily job is to rob things and merchants.
They have done countless bad things, and it is unacceptable that he can be whitewashed of his cruel exploitation of the poor people simply because he rebelled against the imperial court.
The modern writer Lu Xun once said: "The word 'chivalry' gradually disappeared, and robbers rose, but they were also chivalrous, and their banner was 'for heaven's way.'"'。
What they oppose is traitors, not the Son of Heaven, and what they rob is civilians, not generals. When Li Kui robbed the Dharma Field, he picked up the board axe and cut it down, and the one who cut it was the spectators.
A "Water Margin", which is very clear: because he does not oppose the Son of Heaven, as soon as the army arrives, he will be recruited to fight other robbers for the country - the robbers who do not 'walk for heaven' go and finally become slaves. ”
