In "Water Margin", one of The Four Famous Works in China, juyi's 108 good men in Liangshan are all fierce and fierce people, and they can pick out any one at random, and they all have exclusive doorkeeping skills, enough to stand alone. However, in a sense, the purpose of their gathering together is not so simple, even if the leader Song Jiang's faction tries to return to the imperial court, those good men who are deeply oppressed by the imperial court and even forcibly joined by Song Jiang do not want to be at the mercy of Song Jiang.
Wei Dingguo, originally a training envoy of the Lingzhou Regiment, had five hundred armored firemen under his command, proficient in the method of fire attack, and took people with special firearms for combat, and was nicknamed the Divine Fire General. After the First World War of Damingfu that year, the Taishi Cai Jing believed that Liangshan Yigan and others were just "mountain wild grass thieves", and there was no need for the imperial court to recruit soldiers and horses, just let the Lingzhou army and horses attack Liangshan, and would definitely win a complete victory. After hearing this, Emperor Huizong of Song felt that Cai Jing's words were very reasonable, so he ordered the Privy Council to send officials to Lingzhou and recruit Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue to lead an army to attack Liangshan.
Shan Tingjue, nicknamed the Holy Water General, had five hundred Xuanjia soldiers under his command, and like Wei Dingguo, he was also a training envoy of the Lingzhou regiment. In addition, he and Wei Dingguo were inseparable good partners, proficient in the method of water attack, and the world called them "two generals of water and fire". After Liangshan's side heard that it was Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue who were about to fight, the big knife Guan Sheng volunteered, saying that he and the two were old acquaintances and could fight with one.
When Guan Sheng arrived in Lingzhou, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue were not prepared and had to rush to fight. Unexpectedly, their water and fire warfare methods defeated Guan Sheng, causing them to flee in a hurry, and if they had not been saved by Lin Chong and Yang Zhi halfway, Guan Sheng would have been captured. After rectifying the situation, Guan Sheng once again came to the outside of Lingzhou City to call for battle, and he cleverly used a dragging knife to capture Shan Tingjue and recruited five hundred Xuanjia soldiers. However, Wei Dingguo lured Guan Sheng to the camp and defeated him with firearms, causing Guan Sheng to retreat 40 miles.
However, no matter how much Wei Dingguo jumped, he could not withstand the pressure of the army, and at the personal invitation of Guan Sheng, he led five hundred armored firemen to surrender to Liangshan. How could things be unpredictable, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue, who wanted to be at ease and happy, after hearing Song Jiang's zhao'an plan, their heads were simply big, the two were originally officers of the imperial court, and their little lives were quite good, if it wasn't for you, how could the brothers end up in such a field? Now that you have gone around in a big circle and want to return to the imperial court as an official, how can you be so pitted?
Since then, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue have hardly ever used the housekeeping skills again, although their seats are 44 in a row and 45 in a row, but this does not affect their combat paddling in the slightest. The two of them had already seen through Song Jiang and were unwilling to serve him, only waiting for the world to settle down before resigning themselves to their fate. However, during the Battle of Shezhou, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue were ambushed by Wang Yin, and after falling into the pit, they were stabbed alive by the spears and arrows of the ambushers, and their long-cherished wish to spend the rest of their lives was not fulfilled, which was regrettable.
