Chairman Mao once said when criticizing the Water Margin: "Some people say that the Water Margin is good, but where is the Water Margin? I said just surrender. The chairman's words hit the nail on the head. Song Jiang is not a revolutionary in his bones! He is not even qualified to be an upright leader. A fool who only knows obedience faithfully leads a group of reckless and blind hooligans to fight revolutionary Fang La. The result of cannibalism is inevitable, which also lays the groundwork for Liangshan's failure.
If we take the capitulationist line, the revolution will not be complete. Shangliangshan is rebellion, and there is no turning back. There is only one way out, and that is to carry out the rebellion to the end. However, the revolutionary will of Liangshan leading group is not firm, and it also wants to intimidate the court, so as to obtain better capital in the negotiations. So Song Jiang said, only fight corrupt officials, not the emperor. This is wishful thinking. People show that the court is not a fool, officials are sent by the court, and the emperor is in charge of the party. Anti-local officials are of course anti-imperial. If the masses rebel, the court will reward officials. What kind of example will it set for the world? Will the Zhao family have a stable life in the future? Therefore, Liangshan leading group chose a tragic fate while choosing the route of surrender.
