- For ease in matching the transcriptions with the graphics, they have been numbered 1-16, from left to right on each row. Quotations from Chairman Mao: The merit of the book Water Margin lies precisely in its portrayal of capitulation. It serves as teaching material by negative example to help all people recognize capitulationism. Water Margin is against corrupt officials only, but not against the emperor. It excludes Chao Gai from the 108 heroes. Song Jiang pushes capitulationism, practises revisionism, changes Chao [Gai]’s Juyi [Unity] Pavilion into Zhongyi [Loyalty] Hall, and accepts the offer of amnesty and enlistment. Song Jiang’s struggle against [prime minister] Gao Qiu is a struggle waged by one faction against another within the landlord class. As soon as he surrenders, Song Jiang goes to fight [the outlaw] Fang La. Lu Xun on Water Margin: Water Margin makes it quite clear that they were not against the emperor, they accepted the offer of amnesty and enlistment when the government troops arrived, and set out to fight other brigands for the state – brigands who did not “enforce justice on behalf of Heaven.” They were lackeys after all. From the editors The Great Leader Chairman Mao recently pointed out: “The merit of the book Water Margin lies precisely in its portrayal of capitulation. It serves as teaching material by negative example to help all people recognize capitulationism.” In accordance with Chairman Mao’s observation, and in order make full use of the negative example of Water Margin, and to expose the true face of the capitulationist chief Song Jiang in Water Margin, we have drawn this pictorial strip, to provide reference materials for people as they unfold the criticism of Water Margin.
