Commemorating the "One Two? 9. Speech on the 54th anniversary of the Movement

(November 1988)

We, the youth living in the eighties, how happy we were; The Motherland, the Great Mother, how powerful it is!

However, how can we forget, how can we forget the years of suffering, and how can we forget the "one and two" that followed one after another? Nine "martyrs!

Old China in the thirties.

The sky is a dark and dreary day; The earth is dark and dreary.

The iron hooves of Japanese imperialism trampled on the land of Northeast China and threatened the mountains and rivers of Pingjin.

"Corpses fill the shores of Palembang, and blood fills the caves of the Great Wall."

The Kuomintang reactionaries, seeking glory and betraying the country, signed the "Ho-Mei Agreement" with the Japanese bandits, withdrew the troops of HB, and banned all anti-Japanese activities.

The national crisis is unprecedentedly serious, and the descendants of Yan and Huang have been repeatedly devastated, and "the Chinese nation has reached the most dangerous time."

The Chinese people are unyielding, how can they allow their lovely motherland to become an imperialist colony? The Communist Party of China is great, how can it let the land of China be in flames?

On December 9, 1935, under the leadership of the Provisional Working Committee of the Communist Party of China in Beiping, thousands of college students in Peiping held an anti-Japanese demonstration, and "everyone was forced to let out a final roar": "Stop the civil war, unite with the outside world", "Down with Japanese imperialism!" ”

The reactionary government of the Kuomintang even dispatched the military and police to brutally suppress it! More than thirty people were arrested and more than a hundred were injured.

But "those who do not want to be slaves, build our flesh and blood into our new Great Wall"!

The martyrs "braved the enemy's artillery fire, forward, forward, forward, forward!" ”

The martyrs are brave and unyielding!

It is really "blue blood flying, mighty breath, the grass and trees are sad, and the wind and clouds change color".

How can a butcher's knife frighten angry patriots?

The parade of "resentment accumulated, angry waves uncontrollable" is like the water of the Yangtze River, rolling forward!

More and more students are participating in this movement!

"One-two? The "Ninth Movement" set off a new upsurge in the nationwide anti-Japanese salvation movement, and it was really "a wildfire that could not be burned out, and the spring breeze blew and reborn."

"One-two? With her immortal majesty, the "Nine" movement has written a chapter of majestic mountains and rivers.

Decades have passed, and the young people who grew up under the red flag should remember the "one or two? 9. "The heroic deeds of the martyrs, inherit the legacy of the martyrs, and build the great motherland into a more prosperous and powerful country!"

What actions should we take to commemorate the "one-two?" Nine" Movement? In what spirit should we fulfill the last wishes of the martyrs?

This is an unavoidable and important issue facing each and every one of our young people.

The long life is so far away, and the road is under your feet.

But what should we do? Our answer is: first of all, we must have lofty ideals, because she is the spiritual pillar of struggle and the guiding light for progress!

We must have the communist ideal of fighting for all mankind.

For the sake of this ideal, we must study hard, cultivate our sentiments, do a good job in the building of the two civilizations, and temper our revolutionary will.

For the sake of this ideal, we must distinguish between the enemy and ourselves, take a clear-cut stand, and treat the people as warm as a spring, comrades as hot as summer, as ruthless as a harsh winter, and as individualistic as an autumn wind sweeping away leaves.

For the sake of this ideal, we must race against time, study hard, and master the skills.

Do not be lazy and waste your time.

The ancients said: "Sorrow and hard work can rejuvenate the country, and Yiyu can die", "Don't wait for the idle young man's head, empty and sad".

For the sake of this ideal, we must have a healthy body, and the era when imperialism called the "sick man of East Asia" is gone.

We must develop morally, intellectually, and physically, and become a reserve army for the four modernizations.

In short, we must keep in mind Ostrovsky's wise sayings; "A man's life should be spent in such a way that, when he looks back, he does not regret that he wasted his time; nor will he be ashamed of his inaction - so that when he is dying, he will be able to say: 'My whole life and all my energies have been devoted to the most magnificent cause in the world - the struggle for the liberation of the people!' ’”

We, the youth of the eighties, only by doing this, can we console without guilt "one-two? Martyrs of the "Nine" Movement:

Looking back on the past, we have a yesterday with a clear conscience; Facing reality, we have a colorful today; Looking forward to the future, we have a brilliant tomorrow!
