Li Jun (Water Margin) - Contributions To Liangshan

Contributions To Liangshan

Li Jun becomes one of the leaders of the Liangshan navy and contributes significantly to Liangshan during their battles with the imperial army and other enemies of Liangshan. He follows the heroes on their campaigns against the Liao invaders and rebel forces after they have been granted amnesty by the emperor. He proves himself to be not only an expert in combat and naval warfare, but also a good strategist as well.

During the Tian Hu campaign, he suggests flooding the enemy city of Taiyuan to trap Tian Hu's forces and his proposal becomes instrumental in the eventual defeat of Tian. He joins the heroes on their campaign against Fang La later and makes even greater contributions. He goes behind enemy lines by diving into Lake Tai and infiltrating Fang La's battleships from underwater. He befriends some local heroes (Fei Bao, Ni Yun, Bo Qing and Di Cheng) and becomes sworn brothers with them.

Subsequently, Li Jun infiltrates the enemy city of Suzhou and acts as a spy for Liangshan, aiding friendly forces in capturing the city by disrupting the enemy's activities. He pretends to defect to Fang La later during the battle of Qingxi County and plays an important role in crippling the enemy, paving the way for the victory over Fang.
