Teng Jie, a graduate of the fourth phase of Huangpu, stepped off the pedal to feel the exotic atmosphere, and there were 29 Huangpu graduates behind him.

Chang Kaishen is not yet able to fully control the Kuomintang because there are too many factions and too many chaotic factions. For example, the reorganization faction specifically sang against him, the veteran faction often put on old qualifications, and the Xishan faction occasionally disobeyed......

In order to control politics, economics and military, Chang Kaishen has worked all fronts. He trusts the Whampoa students the most, but unfortunately these students are too young, neither ability nor qualifications are enough, and they need gilding and experience to be entrusted with important tasks.

As a result, many outstanding students in Huangpu, including Teng Jie, embarked on the road of studying abroad on public assignment.

In 1929 alone, there were three batches of more than 90 Whampoa students who went to Japan to study and studied in Waseda, Minnega, Lu University and other institutions of higher learning.

These Whampoa students, who studied in Japan, will create a powerful secret organization in the future, the Blue Coat Society, and within a few years they will become the head of the three major factions of the Kuomintang.

They firmly believe that only fascists can save China!

It's a pity that this Blue Coat Society, which was originally formed by hot-blooded patriotic youths, eventually became Chang Kaishen's personal tool, and then divided into the Three Youth League and the Military Command.

After saying goodbye to other Whampoa students, Teng Jie and his friend Xiao Zanyu came to Meiji University in Chiyoda, Tokyo, and quickly devoted themselves to their hard and diligent studies.

Since it is a public study abroad, it is definitely not worrying about spending money.

Teng Jie can receive a monthly allowance of 120 yuan, but he and Xiao Zanyu are very self-controlled. They only spend 40 yuan a month on living expenses, and the rest of the money is used to buy books, and every day they are required to go to the Ueno Library to read books, and even lunch is solved in the basement of the library.

This is a group of purely patriotic young people who are hungry for knowledge and dream of serving the country one day.

Who would have thought that Teng Jie, who was simple and enthusiastic at this time, would become the founder and first generation leader of the feared Blue Coat Society in the future?

In fact, Tengjie's change in thinking was mainly influenced by Japan.

The economic crisis in the United States in 1929 also affected Japan, leading to the spread of Japanese militarism and the growing call for the occupation of Manchuria. The Huangpu students led by Teng Jie hated Japan at the same time, but also accepted Japan's militarist ideology and became more radical and crazy.

However, Tengjie, who has just arrived in Japan, is still studying hard for the time being.

On another weekend morning, Teng Jie and Xiao Zanyu ran to the Ueno Library with rice balls (lunch) in their arms. Even though they arrived early, the seats in the library were still occupied, so they had to borrow books and squat in the corner to read.

Teng Jie studied sociology before, studied military science in Huangpu, and now comes to Japan to major in economics. He has no foundation in economics, and he is a half-semester transfer, so he can only rely on self-study to make up for his shortcomings.

Just when Teng Jie was lying on the ground and took out a notebook to record his reading experience, someone suddenly asked in a low voice in Japanese: "Teng Sang, can you disturb me?" ”

Teng Jie looked up and recognized that it was Matsushita Masao from the same class, and immediately smiled: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Tengsang, I would like to buy a copy of "Guns, Bacteria and Steel" by Mr. Zhou Hexuan, a scholar from your country, can you help me buy it?" Masao Matsushita bowed ninety degrees and said, "Please, it's important to me." ”

Teng Jie felt inexplicable and replied, "Is this book famous?" ”

"Of course, look at this." Masao Matsushita pulled out a newspaper.

This is the new Asahi Shimbun today, and there is a news item in the culture section titled "Oriental Thinkers Who Conquered Europe." The article said: Today's European academic circles are crazy about a Chinese, and several of Mr. Zhou Hexuan's works have been listed as recommended books by Western universities. Historians, sociologists and anthropologists in France and Germany launched an academic revolution with Mr. Zhou Hexuan as the standard-bearer.

Teng Jie was surprised when he saw the news, because although Zhou Hexuan is very famous in China and has many supporters, the number of opponents is also very large, and he is far from reaching the level of an academic champion.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Hexuan is so powerful in the European academic community and is wildly sought after by Westerners.

As a hot-blooded patriotic young man, Teng Jie is both proud and ashamed. Because he had only read Zhou Hexuan's "The Rise of a Great Power", he was not familiar with other works.

Matsushita Masao took out a few crumpled yen and said, "Tengsang, these are book purchase fees, if it's not enough, I'll try to make up for it." I hope you can write to your friends in China as soon as possible to help send Mr. Zhou's magnum opus. ”

"Isn't it sold in Japan?" Teng Jie asked.

Masao Matsushita explains: "Regarding Mr. Zhou's works, Japanese publishers only released 'The Rise of Great Powers' and 'Chrysanthemum and the Knife'. The Ueno Library has two sets of "Guns, Bacteria, and Steel", but there are so many people who borrow them that you can only borrow them by chance. ”

Xiao Zanyu next to him suddenly spoke, because he had read "The Chrysanthemum and the Knife", and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhou is very hostile to Japan, you actually read his books?" ”

Matsushita Masao said with a serious face: "Mr. Zhou is a great man with a wise mind, and I once read his "Chrysanthemum and Knife". Although that book is full of hostility towards our country, his analysis of Japan's national character is breathtaking. Regardless of my position, I admire Mr. Zhou very much, and I can't wait to follow him and get teachings from time to time. ”

Teng Jie and Xiao Zanyu glanced at each other, and they both felt that the Japanese were thinking strangely.

Teng Jie accepted the money and said to Matsushita Masao: "I will write a letter to China, but it may take some time." ”

"Please!" Masao Matsushita bowed again.

Until noon, Teng Jie and Xiao Zanyu came to the basement of the library, took out cold rice balls and cold water, and continued to read and study while eating lunch.

"Hiccup!"

Xiao Zanyu choked, swallowed the rice balls hard, and sighed after drinking the water: "I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to be so respected in Europe." ”

Teng Jie said with a smile: "It is rumored that the commander-in-chief also likes to read Mr. Zhou's books, probably because of the heroes." ”

"I have read 'Guns, Bacteria and Steel', especially the last chapter, which is really a powerful ideological weapon for revitalizing the country," Xiao Zanyu said sincerely, "Mr. Zhou believes that in order to rapidly develop national strength, it is necessary to achieve one-party dictatorship and intra-party democracy, and avoid unnecessary internal friction and disputes." ”

Teng Jie said: "I also agree that the factional struggle within the Kuomintang is too fierce now, and no matter what decisions the state makes, it has changed its nature in the internal struggle." In the long run, how will the country develop, and when will the nation rise? ”

By the way, the militaristic ideology that is about to spread in Japan is called "Emperor Socialism."

Its general content is as follows: The essence of socialism is the supremacy of the state and class coordination. In this sense, only the emperor, who transcends class, can represent the whole people and practice impartial socialism. Only an emperor who has been replaced for all generations can reconcile the past and the future, merge the mind and the material, and speak for the industrial age of the East.

Whampoa students, including Teng Jie, absorbed this idea and replaced the emperor with a wise leader. And the wise leader they think is Chang Kaishen!

Teng Jie and Xiao Zanyu discussed Zhou Hexuan's theory of National Socialism, and the former suddenly said: "Nowadays, there are many Chinese students in Japan, and there are many political factions, so in order to avoid the infiltration of the enemy, it is better for us to form a 'Whampoa Tokyo Alumni Association'." Our alumni association is not only an ordinary student group, but also has its own distinct political opinions......

"I think the political ideas expounded by Mr. Zhou in the book "Guns and Cannons" are very good!" Xiao Zanyu interrupted.

The predecessor of the Blue Coat Society, the Whampoa Tokyo Alumni Association, just popped up.

Zhou Hexuan could never have guessed that not only European scholars regarded his books as the banner of academic revolution, but even Japanese militarism and the Blue Coat Society of the Kuomintang also absorbed some of his ideas.

It's just that it's taken out of context and distorted!

The founder of the theory of Japanese fascism, Kita Yihui, is reading Zhou Hexuan's book at the moment. He has absorbed the theory of national development in "Guns, Bacteria and Steel", made minor modifications to his previous theories, and is planning to do big things.

Ideas shine brightly, but they can also bring disaster.
