Chapter 45: The Spark (Collect)
Soon after Mr. Gao left, he returned to Zheng Yi and sat down, which made Zheng Yi puzzled and pondered, he didn't know whether Mr. Gao's move was to attach importance to himself as a little person or to be wary, and he couldn't ask in the face of Mr. Gao with a frank smile, so he had to smile and look at the rostrum in front of him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Amid the warm applause, five leaders of the peasant movement of different ages and heights came to the rostrum, and Zheng Yi, like all the students, gave a standing ovation, stared intently, and recognized at a glance Mr. Runze, who was wearing a simple robe and combing his hair with a big back.
After a little excitement, Zheng Yi's slightly half-closed eyes couldn't help but show an eager glow, and after sitting down, he felt his heart beat faster and his whole body was hot.
Mr. Gao was very curious about Zheng Yi's subtle reaction, smiled slightly and introduced in a low voice: "The one who walked to the middle of the rostrum to give a lecture is Mr. Runze, and the heroic young man on his left is the surging of Peng, one of the founders of the GD Peasant Movement Workshop. The bespectacled one on the right hand is Mr. Qu Qiubai, who just came from SH like me. β
Zheng Yi swallowed his throat hard, turned sideways, and responded in a low voice: "It's been a long time!" During the last Eastern Crusade, the peasant army led by Mr. Peng was less than 100 miles away from Tamsui City, where I was located, but unfortunately I did not have the opportunity to meet him. β
"Mr. Qu Qiubai has been famous for a long time, as far as I know, the "Internationale", which is known as the clarion call for communist fighting, was translated by Mr. Qu, and I have read more than a dozen issues of the "New Youth" and "Guide" magazines edited by him, and there are these two progressive magazines in the library of the Whampoa Military Academy."
"At the beginning, I left my hometown Wuhan when I saw the enrollment advertisement published in "New Youth" and went south to Guangzhou to apply for the Whampoa Military Academy.
Mr. Gao was stunned, and was about to ask a few words, but the applause in the hall had stopped, and more than 100 students sat down upright, so they had to quiet down and look at the rostrum.
On the rostrum, Mr. Runze calmly glanced at the full class of students, began to lecture in a peaceful voice with the charm of the Xiangjiang River, and praised the GD peasant movement for doing a good job and doing it solidly, and then changed the conversation to introduce in detail the current social situation of HN, and introduce the spread and development of the revolutionary movement in HN.
As the lecture deepened, Zheng Yi, who was sitting in the last row, looked more and more grim, and when he heard Mr. Runze's analysis of the current situation of HN's society to the social classes in China, he only felt that his scalp was numb, his ears were roaring, and the admiration in his heart was surging indescribably, as if he saw flags dyed red with blood fluttering in the raging fire.
The warm applause rang out again, and all the students in the room stood up and paid high tribute to Mr. Runze, who had finished the half-hour lecture.
Zheng Yi, who was immersed in painful memories and boundless imagination, quickly stood up, applauded warmly, and looked at Mr. Runze who bowed humbly on the rostrum.
Section Chief Zheng ...... Section Chief Zheng, it's time for recess. β
Mr. Gao patted Zheng Yi, who was staring intently ahead.
Zheng Yi came back to his senses, thanked him in a low voice, and then made a request: "Mr. Gao, can you introduce me to Mr. Runze?" Mr. Runze, Mr. Qiubai and Mr. Xiangyu are all people I admire very much, and I have been admiring them for a long time! β
Mr. Gao readily agreed: "No problem, I also want to have a good exchange with you, maybe I will ask you for more help in the future!" Haha, let's go to the apse and have a cup of tea and talk slowly. β
"Thank you very much!"
After Zheng Yi finished thanking him, he pulled Duan Xuan, who was full of doubts, and followed Mr. Gao, who was full of interest, to the apse.
When he was about to arrive at the door of the apse, Zheng Yi felt his heart pounding uncontrollably, and secretly took a few deep breaths before calming down.
Mr. Gao paused slightly, nodded politely to Zheng Yi, lifted the hem of his robe, and took the lead in crossing the old carved threshold: "Everyone, there are distinguished guests visiting, haha...... Section Chief Zheng is not polite, please come in, come in. β
Zheng Yi saw Mr. Runze and Mr. Qiubai put down their teacups to greet them, and immediately took two quick steps forward to salute: "My name is Zheng Yi, and I am currently the chief of the ordnance section of the Quartermaster Department of the General Headquarters of the Revolutionary Army. β
Mr. Runze and Mr. Qiubai politely returned the salute, and Mr. Gao moved two stools behind Zheng Yi, and laughed to make tea for Zheng Yi and the others.
The tall man thought for a while, took a step forward, and asked uncertainly: "Section Chief Zheng, I feel that you are a little familiar, are you the head of the Whampoa Military Academy Soldier Choir?" β
Zheng Yi was stunned for a moment, nodded and replied truthfully: "Not now, a few days after the end of the propaganda activities in support of the provincial and Hong Kong strikes on July 23, I suddenly received an order to leave the military academy and transfer to the chief of the ordnance section of the quartermaster department, so I also resigned from the post of head of the Whampoa Military Academy Soldiers' Choir. β
"Now the Whampoa Military Academy Soldier Choir is under the direct leadership of the Political Department of the school, and it is estimated that after the triumph of the main force, it will soon appear again."
Surging laughed, enthusiastically stretched out his hands, shook Zheng Yi tightly, and burst out a string of fast and urgent Chaoshan words: "On July 23rd, I sat in the third row of the guest seat in front of the stage, and after listening to your singing "Unity is Strength", I was so excited that I finally stood up and sang along with everyone, and I couldn't enjoy singing it three times in a row. β
"Now almost all of our peasant army brothers can sing it, as well as "Yan Nanfei" and "I am a soldier", which are widely circulated, and I heard that they have all spread to SH, haha...... Oh! Do you understand what I'm saying? β
"I can basically understand it, I can speak Cantonese, in fact, we still wanted to sing a "Internationale" that day, but unfortunately time is precious and I can't arrange it."
Zheng Yi was also happy, and shook his surging big hand vigorously.
Mr. Runze and Mr. Qiubai were slightly surprised and looked at each other in unison.
surging heartily smiled, beckoned Zheng Yi to sit down, and explained that it would be his turn to lecture immediately, and asked Zheng Yi not to leave in a hurry, and to have a good chat after he finished the lecture.
Zheng Yi watched the surging leave, then sat down politely, took the steaming tea from Mr. Gao, thought about it and asked curiously: "Mr. The surging is lecturing, can the students from all provinces understand?" β
Everyone laughed, and Mr. Gao explained with a smile: "I guess you didn't pay attention to the young man behind him, who is a special translator for The Paper, who is responsible for converting the Chaoshan dialect to the official dialect, so the time taken by the Paper to give each lecture is twice as long as that of others." β
The laughter sounded again, and Zheng Yi looked at Mr. Runze and Mr. Qiubai, who were smiling happily, and couldn't help but laugh too.
Mr. Qiubai leaned over slightly: "Section Chief Zheng ......"
Zheng Yi hurriedly stood up: "Mr. Qiubai, you are a person I respect, in the past two years, I have not read much of the "New Youth" and "Guide" edited by you, when I left my hometown Wuhan to apply for the Whampoa Military Academy, it was a life choice made under the influence of "New Youth", so please don't be polite, call me Xiao Zheng or Zheng Yi." β
Mr. Runze, who was smiling and watching, nodded slightly, and Mr. Qiubai was very impressed when he saw Zheng Yi being so humble: "Good! In that case, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, haha! Xiao Zheng, you are a member of the ****** Party, right? β
Zheng Yi nodded, truthfully said the before and after he joined the *****, without adding branches and leaves, nor any likes and dislikes, and finally said his true thoughts with emotion:
"Before joining the *****, colleagues and cadets from the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in the military academy approached me many times, hoping that I would clarify my political position, but I was always hesitant because I couldn't see the future ...... clearly."
"Mr. Xiang Yu is relatively clear about these circumstances, and he and I have always been colleagues, and for more than 20 days after Mr. Liao Zhongkai's assassination, Mr. Xiang Yu was in charge of investigation and interrogation as director of the Political Department and judge of the General Army, because the place where the people involved in the case were detained and interrogated was the small courtyard of the Ordnance Department of the East Counterpoint Field under my jurisdiction, so we met almost every day, and unfortunately we did not have the opportunity to talk deeply."
After listening to Zheng Yi's words, Mr. Runze, Mr. Qiubai and Mr. Gao became serious, and they all realized that Zheng Yi did not have a political position, but did not make a choice.
Mr. Runze asked kindly: "Xiao Zheng, what do you think of the current cooperation between the KMT and the CPC?" β
Zheng Yi hesitated for a moment: "After the trial of the 'Liao case' was concluded, my mood was quite low, and when I said goodbye to Mr. Xiangyu, who was about to leave after completing the interrogation task, I said to Mr. Xiangyu: What I see is not that justice has been served, not that the revolutionary camp has been purified, but that there are shocking shady scenes and political transactions hidden behind the case!" β
"It can be said unceremoniously that the Comintern and your Party, which have made important contributions to this end, have not only not gained any benefit, but have created an even greater hidden danger!"
At this time, not only Mr. Runze was taken aback, but Mr. Qiubai and Mr. Gao were also stunned.
Zheng Yi gritted his teeth, and then said: "Today I have the honor to listen to a lecture by Mr. Runze, I have benefited a lot, and I am deeply touched, Mr. Runze's incisive analysis of today's society, his in-depth investigation of the HN countryside, and his elaboration of class division and class contradictions have made me understand the urgency and necessity of the peasant movement, after all, our country is still in a poor and backward semi-feudal and semi-colonial state, and the peasants, who account for more than ninety percent of the population, constitute the main body of the proletariat. The Chinese revolution was bound to succeed. β
Mr. Runze and Mr. Qiubai looked at each other, feeling that the definition of "semi-feudal and semi-colonial" and the term "proletarian subject" were very clear and reasonable, and they seemed to dare not believe that such a subtle remark came from the mouth of the young soldier in front of him.
Zheng Yi had completely calmed down, thought about it and added: "It's far away, let's go back and talk about my views on the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party......
"At present, it seems that the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party is quite pleasant and necessary, because they have common interests and common enemies, and the great god of the Comintern helps each other and mediates left and right, so for a long period of time, although there are contradictions between them, they can still work together."
"However, once ****** integrate their own forces and develop under the banner of revolution that carries on the legacy of Mr. Nakayama, they will inevitably do their utmost to squeeze out and strike at the Communist Party ...... who fought side by side and gave them tremendous support."
"Gentlemen, don't blame me for being alarmist, the antagonism between the two parties has long since determined the future of cooperation, and ***** represents the interests of the landlord class and the old and new bourgeoisie, while the Communist Party represents the interests of the broad proletariat composed of peasants and workers.
The strong feelings of several gentlemen at this moment can no longer be described as shock, knowing that the road ahead is full of difficulties and uncertainties, but they still can't calm down the agitated mood.
Zheng Yi finished the psychological words that had been pressed on his heart for a long time, slowly stood up, took a deep breath and said: "Mr. Runze, Mr. Qiubai, Mr. Gao, thank you for listening to me, I have experienced many things for more than a year, and I spend every day in hesitation and hard thinking. β
"Here, I would like to express my heartfelt voice: I have read Das Kapital, understand Marx's theory of materialist dialectics and scientific socialism, and originally intended to throw away my head and shed my blood for national reunification and national rejuvenation, and I sincerely hope to join the Communist Party of China, and I am willing to accept any test of your gentlemen and organization!"
"My only request is to keep it secret for the time being, that my current position and conditions are much better than most of the Communist Party comrades in the army, and that I will be able to contribute greater strength to the party and the people when necessary!"
