The Water Margin records that Wu Dalang and Song Wu were from Kongsongzhuang, Qinghe, Shandong Province, which is now Wujiana Village, Qinghe County, Xingtai, Hebei Province.
In fact, Wu Dalang, the prototype of life, was originally named Wuzhi "Tian Ling", called "Dalang" when he was a child, and Lao Si in his later years. His wife Pan Shi, a noble family, lives in Jinyang County and is a descendant of Yin Wuding. Moved from Jinyang, Shanxi Province to Qinghe, Shandong Province in the early Ming Dynasty. He lost his father since he was a child and has been a champion of Pan in the golden village across a river. Wu Zhi was eager to learn from childhood and loved poetry and martial arts. Finish your work during the day, study by yourself at night and practice martial arts diligently in the morning. Pan Jia saw that Wu Zhi was a promising young man, tall, like Yushu Feng Ling, and very popular with people of insight around him. It is said that he will become a great talent in the future, so Pan Jia betrothed his daughter to Wu Zhi. Wu Zhi, a middle-aged scholar, was appointed as Yanggu county magistrate. During his tenure, he "promoted the advantages and eliminated the disadvantages, was honest and clean, won the love of the people, and sent an umbrella to the people for respect."
According to historical records, Song Wuyuan was a Jianghu artist. He is "extremely beautiful in appearance, trying his hand outside the Golden Gate" and "not a thief". Gao Quan, the magistrate of Hangzhou, saw that Song Wu was skilled in martial arts and outstanding in talent, so he invited him to the mansion and made him the capital commander. Soon, because of his achievements, he was promoted to jurisdiction and became the confidant of the magistrate. Later, Gao Quan was dismissed because he offended powerful people and was flattered by traitors. Song Wu was also implicated and kicked out of the yamen. He was succeeded by Cai Yan, the son of the traitor Cai Jing. Relying on his father's power, he abused government to harm the people, and the people complained bitterly, calling Cai Yan "Cai Hu". Song Wu hated this traitor, and he was determined to risk his life to harm the people. One day, he hid in front of Cai Fu with a sharp sword. When Cai Yan was besieged, he rushed forward and stabbed Cai Yan several times, immediately ending his life. Officers and men swarmed to besiege Song Wu, and eventually Song Wu was captured by officers and men because he was outnumbered. He died in prison after being severely punished. The local "people deeply felt their virtue and were buried by the Xiling Bridge in Hangzhou", and later generations erected a monument titled "Tomb of the Song Dynasty".
In real history, Song Wu and Wu Dalang were both from Kongsongzhuang, Qinghe County, but they were not brothers of Wu Dalang, because Song Wu was from Song Dynasty and Wu Dalang was from Ming Dynasty.
To sum up, two men who lived in different dynasties and were more than 270 years old became brothers, the younger became a brother and the older became a younger brother in Water Margin.
Wu Dalang, there is such a person in history, but there is a big gap between the martial arts in history and the novels.
In history, the prototype of Wu Da was called Wu Zhi, whose real name was Tian Ling. When he was a child, people often called him Dalang. When he was old, he was addressed as Lao Si. His wife, Pan Shi, is a noble family. When Wu Da was young, he loved reading, was good at martial arts and was handsome, so Master Pan decided to marry his daughter.
Wu Da, a middle-aged man, lived up to expectations and was appointed as Yanggu County Magistrate. During his tenure, he promoted advantages and eliminated disadvantages, was honest and clean, and was deeply loved by the people. He also received umbrellas from people. As for why he was cuckolded in Water Margin, it was entirely because he didn't promote his good friend's classmates during his reign, which led to the hatred of his good friends, so he fabricated bad things about Wu Da everywhere so that the author Shi Naian could write them into the book. From then on, Wu Da and his wife Pan Shi suffered a thousand years of humiliation, which also led to the custom of Wu Jia and Pan Jia in Qinghe not getting married for hundreds of years.
Looking back at Song Wu, there is no record of Wu Dadi in the historical records. However, experts found in archaeology that there was a difference of hundreds of years between Wu Da Ling and Song Wu, which means that Song Wu and Wu Zhi were not contemporaries, so there was no Song Wu in the history of Wu Da.
Historically, Song Wu and Wu Dasha were born in Shi Naian's electoral thought. Ask the author.
Speaking of Wu Dalang, there is nothing I don't know. Even if you haven't seen the Water Margin, you have a general understanding of Wu Dalang. Even if you don't know Wu Dalang, you must know Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing, as well as Song Wu who beat the tiger.
Wu Dalang, shit! Because of his short stature, he was laughed at, saying that he had a golden tongue, and even beggars laughed at him.
Later, her luck changed. She married a beautiful daughter-in-law named Pan Jinlian. However, Pan Jinlian did not bring happiness to Wu Dalang, but died.
The above is Wu Dalang in the Water Margin. As we all know, Water Margin is based on real history, among which many heroes, such as Song Jiang, Chao Gai and Song Wu, all have historical prototypes. So, does Wu Dalang also have historical archetypes?
Yes! And Wu Dalang's historical prototype will make people stunned.
Wu Dalang, formerly known as Wu Zhi, is seven feet tall. Although not very tall, it is by no means a dwarf, about 751 meters. This height is not imagined, but calculated from the unearthed tomb of Wu Zhi.
Wu Dalang is not only tall, but also talented. He was admitted to Jinshi and became a county magistrate. It is said that when he was in office, he was honest and clean, loving the people like a son, and was widely praised.
Wu Dalang's wife is called Pan Jinlian. The couple are congenial, love each other, and have two children. Pan Jinlian is virtuous and kind, filial to the elderly and considerate of her husband. She is a rare wife and mother.
However, in the Water Margin, why did Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian become so miserable?
This starts with a friend in Wu Dalang.
Wu Dalang has a friend named Huang Tang. When Wu Dalang was young, his family was poor and Huang Tang was well-off, and he often supported Wu Dalang.
Later, Wu Dalang became a county magistrate and developed, but Huangtang's business failed and he owed a lot of debts. Later, when the house leaked and it rained all night, Huangtang's house caught fire and all the belongings were reduced to ashes.
Huang Tang was desperate, so he went to Wu Dalang and wanted to find an office in the county government.
Wu Dalang hospitality Huang Tang, drink for three days in a row, but said nothing about the arrangement of the work, Huang Tang a little worried.
On this day, Huang Tang couldn't help it, so he asked Wu Dalang, "Brother Wu, how did you arrange my work?"
Wu Dalang hesitated, prevaricated and said, "Brother, I'm sorry, people in the county are openly recruited, at least they must have a scholar's diploma, but you ..."
Hearing this, Huang Tang turned green immediately, and then left without saying hello.
On the way home, Huang Tang became angrier and angrier, cursing all the way, fabricating scandals about Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian, and propagating them everywhere.
Good things stay indoors while bad things will go far away. Soon, it reached the ears of the bully Ximen Qing.
Ximen Qing wanted to contract the maintenance project of the county government, found Wu Dalang, and stuffed a lot of money, but Wu Dalang ignored this one and threw the money out. Finally, he chose a reliable contractor through public bidding.
From then on, Ximen Qing held a grudge, so he found Huang Tang funded by Ximen Qing. Huang Tang wrote the script and then gave it to a troupe to perform. In this way, Wu Dalang became a golden egg, and Pan Jinlian became an adulterer.
Years later, after constant deduction, Ximen Qing was also written into the script and became Pan Jinlian's lover.
Later, Shi Naian rearranged the story and wrote it in Water Margin. As for whether Wu Dalang has a younger brother named Song Wu, it is unclear.
1. Wu Dalang (Ming) is a martial artist, male, Han nationality, from Wujiana Village, Qinghe County, Hebei Province. Although he was born in poverty, he was brilliant and admired martial arts. Middle-aged scholar, made a county magistrate in yanggu county. This is the military value recorded in the official history.
Everything written in "Water Margin" is invented by the author. In order to create a plot atmosphere.
3. The military value in history is different from the Song and Wu in the novel. Military value came into being many years after the death of Shi Naian, the author of Water Margin.
Therefore, the military value of history and novels should not belong to one person.
The Water Margin is a novel written by Mr. Shi Lao. As for the characters in the novel, they are story characters created by Shi Lao, not real characters such as historical records, county annals and biographies. So there is no need to mechanically copy the characters in the novel. Even Song Jiang and Wu in Water Margin may be completely different from real people. Therefore, a novel has thousands of faces and can only be interpreted by readers themselves.
Wu Zhi (Wu Da) is from Wujiana Village, Qinghe County, Hebei Province. (Ming)
Song Wu was born in Wang Shizhuang, Qinghe County, Hebei Province. (Song)
Wu Dalang's younger brother Song Wu, a few hundred years older than Wu Dalang in history, was born in the Song Dynasty, which is completely different from Wu Dalang.

What is the real Wu Dalang like in history? Wu Dalang in the Water Margin is less than five feet tall and ugly. In modern terms, Wu Dalang is a dwarf. And he also has a wife, the wife is Pan Jinlian, an adulterer and adulterer in history. Not only poisoned Wu Dalang, but also cremated his body.
In fact, in history, Wu Dalang was a handsome man who was eight feet tall. He is very popular with Pan, and he gave him his daughter Pan Jinlian's excrement. The two couples are very loving, and Pan Jinlian is still a standard lady, without the water margin. And later, Wu Dalang was the top student in high school and became the magistrate of Yanggu County. Wu Dalang, who lives a clean life, is a rare good official.

Song Wu is not a Liangshan hero in Water Margin. He was originally just a busker, but later he was appreciated by the magistrate in Hangzhou because of his superb martial arts, so he became an official in the yamen. In the local area, there is a local ruffian named Cai Hu, who is known as the tiger who harms others because of his rich and powerful father who bullies the weak and fears the hard. Song Wu saw that tigers were harmful to human beings, so he decided to kill them. Originally, he wanted to teach a lesson, but he didn't expect to kill Cai Hu. Song Wu was arrested, imprisoned, tortured and finally brutally killed. In memory of Song Wu, people called him a "tiger hero".

Wu Dalang and Song Wu in real history are not from the same dynasty, so they won't be brothers. Song Wu grew up in the Song Dynasty. He is not a tiger in the animal kingdom, but a scum who harms the world. Wu Dalang was not a peddler, but a scholar of the Ming Dynasty. His wife, Pan Jinlian, and the husband and wife are very loving. It is hard to say whether there is a Wu Da in history. Even if there is, it is not necessarily as described in the novel. Wu Da is just the foreshadowing of Shi Naian's Water Margin to Song Wu.
Wu Dalang nicknamed "three-inch boned bark" to describe Wu Dalang as short and ugly. Cheng Muheng said:
(Water Margin).
However, according to Qian Wenzhong and Wang Haiyan's "Three-inch Fixed Bone Bark" in No.4, 200/KLOC-0, Shanghai Shilin magazine, it is said that "fixed bone" actually comes from the Western Zhou Dynasty Book published in Dunhuang, saying that "fixed bone cave has temples and Buddhist temples"; He also said, "From the perspective of Indo-European comparative linguistics, the above statement is very controversial. If that's the case, then the word' Ding Gu' is a Chinese transliteration of foreign words, and the words' Ding Gu Dong' and' Ding Gu' in Xizhou Tujing are transliteration, meaning' Dong'. From this, the article speculates, "If so, we can get a new understanding from the' three-inch fixed bone bark'.
Wu Dalang is short and ugly, and there is no second person in the world, just like a small tree growing in a cave. It can't be exposed to the sun and rain, can't stretch, and can't grow into a towering tree, so it is only' three inches'. Using' bark' to describe it shows that Wu Dalang is ugly and weak. ".
This is also Wu Dalang's nickname. According to Three-inch Ding Drum Bark, Water Margin is sometimes called Three-inch Ding, and Ximen Qing stumbled and laughed.
Later, Ming people also used it as another name. According to Zhang Dai, "there is a dwarf Hu in the forest, and his nickname is three." There is a restaurant in front of the county seat, which is very delicate and shy and famous for its Hu fan.
I used to tease Huang;
In the Song Dynasty, a man's seven-foot figure was the standard. Of course, three inches of gold is an artistic exaggeration. It is likely that Pan Jinlian, who is tall next to him, brings out the best in each other, so he is ridiculed as a "third-class disability".
Wu Dalang is a character in Water Margin. He only left a surname, but his first name didn't appear. In fact, he doesn't need a name, because many people in Song and Yuan Dynasties don't have names.
But in recent years, the story of Song Wu has become popular, but it also conforms to him. This edition of the annals of Qinghe County in Hebei Province is introduced in the column of "Legend", saying that this person is surnamed Wu and is an honest official. It is also said that Wu Zhi is a native of Wu Jia Village, Qinghe, only five kilometers away from Panjiazhuang where Pan Jinlian was born. The Wu Zhi here is very high. He used to be a magistrate of yanggu county. He was clean when he was an official. People love him, traitors hate him. His daughter-in-law, Pan Jinlian, is not as easy virtue as in the play, but kind, virtuous, hardworking and kind. They love each other all their lives and they will be together forever.
Wuzhi Tomb is located in Minami Imamura. It was excavated after liberation. There is no treasure in the grave. Tombstones are treasured in the county cultural bureau. Wu Zhi has no brother named Song Wu, and there is no such person in the Wu family tree compiled by a writer, and so on.
So, Wu Zhi does have his own business, but he and Wu Dalang in the Water Margin should be two cars running on the same road, which is irrelevant.
There are different opinions about the baked wheat cakes sold in Wu Dalang. In fact, in the Song Dynasty, it was said that all flour products had "cakes". This sesame seed cake is today's steamed bread (solid, no stuffing). Also known as steamed cakes and cage cakes, they are steamed in bamboo cages.
Sesame cake is also called "steamed cake", but it was renamed "sesame cake" because it avoided the anonymity of Zhao Zhen (Song Renzong). The Ming and Zhou dynasties prayed for a "famous test", saying that the ancients "whoever takes noodles as a utensil is called a cake." Luobing by the fire pit; There is a big victory, Hu cake, which is today's sesame seed cake; Boil the soup cake with water, also called boiled cake, which is today's section; Steamed and eaten are called steamed cakes and cage cakes. " That is.
Wu Dalang is a self-employed person who makes solid steamed bread.
