Chapter 18 Observations in the Concession
At the congress, the matter of "stealing" oranges was vigorously criticized, and it was raised to a frightening political height, and many "hats" were deducted, which frightened us into shrinking our tongues again and again. The "yin and yang man" made a profound review in public, and apologized to the eldest mother, paying 100 yuan (pocket money for the whole month), he lowered his head, took out the stolen orange from his coat pocket and returned it to the eldest mother.
Everyone is looking at it, this is a very peculiar orange - it looks angular and angular, yellow with bright red, like a peach, lovely, no wonder "yin and yang people" can't withstand the "temptation". Although the eldest mother's family said that this was a trivial matter, it was Xiao He who picked this orange with curiosity for a while, so there was no need to criticize Xiao He ...... so harshly. But afterwards, Xiao He was still given a notice of criticism, and since then, the "yin and yang people" have been "famous" in the whole brigade again.
Afterwards, we asked him why he dared to risk the world's disapproval, and he said: This orange grows so strangely, so lovely, I want to pick it many times to play, I blame myself for not being able to withstand the temptation of "beautiful orange", forgetting that he is a soldier, and I really regret today's catastrophe. Someone joked: "You are also careless in Jingzhou, and the big boat capsized in the small river - you were caught by the little fat man." Everyone laughed.
Deng Xiaolin said strangely: "Don't be afraid, next time I come to guard you, you just go and pick it, how about it?" ”
"Don't make fun of me, you want to send me to the Judge Advocate General's Office? It's really unkind. ”
Someone said: "You are Zhu Bajie, and you are tempted when you see a woman." ”
Everyone dispersed in laughter.
This "little thing" is like a killing stick, once again warning us that we must always keep in mind the "Three Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention", and once we relax our own ideological transformation, problems will arise.
One day, the Military and Political University arranged for the No. 4 Brigade of newly recruited Military University members from Guangzhou Province to lead the No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 Brigades to various localities to collect grain. Our second brigade went to a certain township in Nanbo to collect grain, the so-called grain collection is to go to the township to carry grain, if there is no grain in the township, buy grain and carry it back. The second brigade was led by the chief of affairs, a total of more than 150 people, the tool for carrying food was their own white sheets, put rice in the sheets, rolled up and tied a good pocket, filled with seventy or eighty pounds.
On this day, we marched to the designated township, the local staff was very enthusiastic, and greeted us for lunch, fortunately, there was grain in the warehouse, immediately bagged and weighed, everyone fought for more points, and the elder of the company's affairs, Lu, took us by boat first.
The boat traveled along the river of the river delta, just when the tide was rising, the water was full of water, and the small steamboat was walking happily, and it arrived at the Shamian concession of Baietan, about three o'clock in the afternoon. Elder Lu had read some history books, and as soon as he heard that there was a Shamu Concession in front of him, he asked the captain of the ship:
"Is it the Shamu Concession?"
He replied, "Yes." ”
"Okay, let's get off the boat here and go to the concession to have a look."
After paying for the boat and thanking the boat boss, we went ashore with rice on our backs.
The Shamian Concession is actually a small island surrounded by water on all sides, surrounded by a wall of three or four feet high made of large stones, with several piers to go ashore, and the large iron gate of the concession is locked. We put the rice bags on the steps outside a big house, and they crept along the outside of the fence.
At the corner of a Western-style house stood a large stone monument that read: "Great A Imperial Wall Boundary, erected in 1842." "We watched the heroism, pointed to the stone tablet and scolded the robbers of country A for being shameless! Lao Lu found a stone and threw it upward, but the stele did not move, it turned out to be a granite stone stele, which really blew up our soldiers.
A classmate from Mountain Province opened his pants and flushed urine on the stone tablet, and it happened that I was also in a hurry to urinate, and several people took a urine bath for A imperialism, which was regarded as a bad breath for our shame.
Walking along the island meadow, you will also see a stone monument of "Empire B Wall Boundary" in the corner of a French-style building. Looking at these boundary monuments that symbolize national shame, our anger has risen again, and how can our land tolerate the existence of the cancer of imperialism? As a hot-blooded young man who is determined to overthrow the three mountains, can you not be angry? We cursed incessantly, and had nowhere to vent our grievances, so we had to take a urine bath with urine for the French robbers as punishment.
When I turned around and came to the gate, I saw some white-skinned, eagle-nosed, blue-eyed foreigners standing on the buildings in the courtyard, and they looked at us soldiers suspiciously. The enemies turned red when they saw each other, and our resentment against imperialism surged up at once.
"Fire Tube" Deng Xiaolin fired first: "Dog robber, go back to your hometown!" ”
We immediately shouted "Down with ......!" Dog robbers, go back to their hometown! ……”
The chief of affairs was worthy of the surname "Lu", and he was so angry that he suddenly pulled out his shell gun, and pointed the muzzle of the gun directly at those hooked noses, which frightened those turtle grandsons to hurriedly lower their waists and rush into the house in embarrassment. It was as if we had won a great victory, and our hearts were greatly satisfied, and one by one we turned our anger into joy, laughed triumphantly, and walked with great spirits.
Returning to the unit, he reported the situation on the road to the company, and the captain said: "Good job, comrades have ambition!" The instructor thought that the ambition was commendable, but the behavior was undesirable, and that we were too rude.
After days of study and propaganda, the pace of life is faster and more tiring than that of the march. But living in a stacked cellar, the living environment is good, quiet and comfortable, so some people take advantage of the opportunity to go to the countryside to publicize, publicize themselves, show off themselves, and find girls to fall in love. Some also leaked the name and inside story of the military university and were used by bad guys.
Guangzhou Province has been the forefront of China's foreign affairs for thousands of years, perhaps under the influence of the integration of Eastern and Western cultures, the people here are more open-minded, and the girls are especially open and lively. Knowing that the comrades of the military university are educated and knowledgeable, their speech and demeanor are elegant, their youth is radiant, and they have admiration for the army, and they like to get close to and associate with us.
Whenever we see that we are free, we come together to play, especially in the evenings. Since we live in people's homes, this contact is even closer to the water. A small number of students fell in love, and the revolutionary will began to waver, some did not want to be a soldier anymore, wanted to desert, eloped with their girlfriends, some wanted to come to the door to be aunts, and some even had improper relationships between men and women. The emergence of these problems has aroused great concern among the leaders of the military congress, and if we do not pay close attention to education, it will inevitably affect the fighting spirit of the troops.
The summary education conference was held in the auditorium of a church in Foshi, presided over by the deputy director of the political department of the school, and the director of education Fan made a report.
He was one of the leaders of the prestigious university student sports meeting and a participant in the "12.9" movement in 1935. "There is ink in the belly, eloquence in the mouth, and opinions in theory." I remember that on the day the military university opened in Hongdu, Commander Chen commented on him like this. Mr. Fan is like a university professor, polite, fair-faced, not tall, likes to joke with us, also likes to debate with classmates, is strict with people, but very easy-going, he is not as serious as Director Li. Everyone thinks that he must be very wonderful to give a report today.
The auditorium was full of people inside and outside the house, and the first, second, and third teams and the fourth team newly recruited in Yangcheng were present.
Chief Fan gave a very brilliant speech on the mobilization, which erupted into warm applause from time to time, and he spoke with theoretical depth and was able to confront the problems existing in the troops, seeking truth from facts, and expounding incisively, enlightening and intriguing. Everyone's notebook is full of memories, and he stressed the need to conscientiously examine the new problems existing in one's thinking, actions, and work style, realize the seriousness of the problems, and truly carry out the revolution to the end. He asked everyone to spend three days after the meeting to carry out criticism and self-criticism, self-dissection, dig deep into the roots, raise awareness, and strengthen immunity.
