這一部書,名喚作《蕩寇志》。看官,你道這書為何而作?緣施耐庵先生《水

滸傳》並不以宋江為忠義。眾位只須看他一路筆意,無一字不描寫宋江的奸惡。

其所以稱他忠義者,正為口裡忠義,心裡強盜,愈形出大奸大惡也。聖歎先生批

得明明白白:忠於何在?義於何在?總而言之,既是忠義必不做強盜,既是強盜

必不算忠義。乃有羅貫中者,忽撰出一部《後水滸》來,竟說得宋江是真忠真義。

從此天下後世做強盜的,無不看了宋江的樣:心裡強盜,口裡忠義。殺人放火也

叫忠義,打家劫舍也叫忠義,戕官拒捕、攻城陷邑也叫忠義。看官你想,這喚做

什麼說話?真是邪說淫辭,壞人心術,貽害無窮。此等書,若容他存留人間,成

何事體!莫道小說閒書不關緊要,須知越是小說閒書越發播傳得快,茶坊酒肆,

燈前月下,人人喜說,個個愛聽。他這部書既已刊刻行世,在下亦不能禁止他。

因想當年宋江,並沒有受招安、平方臘的話,只有被張叔夜擒拿正法一句話。如

今他既妄造偽言,抹煞真事。我亦何妨提明真事,破他偽言,使天下後世深明盜

賊、忠義之辨,絲毫不容假借。況夢中既受囑於真靈,燈下更難已於筆墨。看官

須知:這部書乃是結耐庵之《前水滸傳》,與《後水滸》絕無交涉也。本意已明,

請看正傳。
