Han Yunhua was not stage frightened, calmly walked up to the rostrum, swept the spectators in the stands, and said in an emotional Inner Mongolian accent: "A spirit that travels through history and reflects the future." In 1931, the September 18 Incident caused China to lose the three eastern provinces; In 1935, the North China Incident caused China to lose control of the entire five provinces of North China; In 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident caused us to lose half of the rivers and mountains. How much room do we have to retreat, Shanghai is lost, we can retreat to Nanjing; If Nanjing is lost, we can withdraw to Wuhan; Wuhan is lost, and we can also withdraw to Chongqing. But if even Chongqing, Chengdu or Kunming in the rear are lost, then where can we still withdraw?

I can't forget the day when I accepted the adaptation, and many soldiers asked: Why do you have to wear Kuomintang uniforms to fight Japanese devils? Comrade Zuo Quan, then chief of staff of the Red Army Corps, told everyone in a serious voice: In order to resist Japan, what does it matter if we wear a Kuomintang hat? Everyone followed his command, took off their five-star octagonal hats, and put on this anti-Japanese hat. The flames of the all-out war of resistance were ignited, for the freedom and prosperity of the country and the nation. At the critical moment of the nation's survival, the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, regardless of its previous suspicions, carried out reorganization, accepted the command of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, and quickly went to the anti-Japanese front. The 40,000 Red Army soldiers who broke through the encirclement and interception of the Kuomintang army and successfully completed the Long March of 10,000 miles were reorganized into the Eighth Route Army of the National ** Army; 10,000 guerrillas who went out of the mountains formed the new Fourth Army of the National Army; Countless anti-Japanese armed forces, under the leadership of China's **, went deep behind enemy lines and fought guerrilla warfare......

At the same time, under the advocacy of China, the anti-Japanese national united front based on the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was formally formed. 40,000,000 compatriots united under the banner of patriotism and converged into a mighty torrent of resistance against Japan. The soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Federation were active in Baishan and Heishui, and the Muslim detachment made the Japanese army fearful; Salvation organizations such as the National Salvation Federation from all walks of life have been set up one after another, and different political parties and groups have donated old grievances to go to the national disaster together. Compatriots from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao donated money and materials, and overseas Chinese subscribed to treasury bonds and returned to China to participate in the war...... The tide of the All-People's War of Resistance completely shattered the aggressor's false claim that "China will be destroyed within three months".

It was a war of great disparity: in 1937, Japan produced 5.8 million tons of steel a year, 1,580 aircraft, 330 tanks, and 740 artillery pieces. At that time, China's annual output of steel was only 40,000 tons, and its military industry was weak, so it could only produce some light weapons...... On July 17, 1937, Chairman Chiang Chung-cheng delivered a famous speech in Lushan: "If the war begins, it will be that there is no distinction between the north and the south, and there is no distinction between the old and the young. "We can't forget the little soldiers of the Red Army on the Long March, we can't forget the monuments on the snow-capped mountains and plateaus, we can't forget the blood-stained red flags on the battlefield filled with gunsmoke, and we can't forget the group of people with lofty ideals under the blood-red banner. It is precisely with such a group of enthusiastic young people that the country and the nation have hope; It is precisely with such a group of steel fighters that the Chinese nation can wash away a century of humiliation and stand tall in the east of the world again.

They go forward and follow each other, they sacrifice their lives and forget death, they throw their heads and spill their blood, they would rather take up rudimentary weapons to resist than be spineless minions. From Pingxingguan to Taihang Mountain, from the Loess Plateau to the vast forest, from the hills of Shandong to the grassland of Saibei, people can never forget the red battle flag and the gray fighter under the battle flag. No matter how the hunger of the war hits, no matter how the disaster and disease are baptized, the blood-colored battle flag that symbolizes the national resistance against Japan will not move, and the traitor will continue to fold its flagpole; The lackey can't break its flag; The invaders trembled under its banner waving in the wind.

This was another war that frightened the invaders: after countless days and nights of blocking the Japanese army, the Baoshan battalion was almost completely annihilated, and only three people in the battalion survived; Besieged by the enemy by the river, 8 female warriors who swore to die held their arms and sank into the river. At the heavy cost of 40,000 sacrifices, the Chinese newspaper vowed to defeat the arrogant Japanese fascists...... The Chinese nation will inevitably win a complete victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in the end, and the spirit of the War of Resistance tempered by blood and fire will become eternal in the starry sky of history. Sacrifice your life to go to the country, and see death as if you were going home. Blood can be shed, tears can be spilled, but the head cannot be lowered; this is the true color of the Chinese nation; the blood of the Chinese flows with the indomitable and unyielding spirit, how many honors and disgraces, how many hardships, how many struggles, how many sacrifices, we use blood, sweat, and precious lives to forge the indomitable Chinese soul of the oriental land, in exchange for the brilliant sunshine of the Chinese posterity, and create a happy life for our future generations. Countless heroes and martyrs, with their love for the motherland and sincerity to the people, did not hesitate to throw their heads and shed their blood in exchange for this hard-won happiness, which embodies the blood and lives of countless heroes. So many people with lofty ideals, for the liberation of New China and in order to let the people live a good life, they did not hesitate to throw their heads and spill their blood. It is a symbol of the sincere cooperation of the sons and daughters of China to drive away foreign humiliation, and it is the perfect interpretation of the unyielding national soul of the Chinese nation. ,

"When the country is in trouble, the husband is responsible. At that time, I can appreciate the weight of this sentence. "In those years of leakage and burning, there are many people and things that we should remember. The Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Xinkou Taiyuan, the Battle of Nanjing, the Battle of Taierzhuang and Xuzhou, and the Battle of Wuhan...... Millions of Kuomintang troops rose up to resist on the frontal battlefield. Pingxingguan victory, 100 regiment battles, tunnel warfare, mine warfare, sparrow warfare...... The Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army and the anti-Japanese armed forces led by China have plunged the invaders into the sea of people's war. Explosion hero Li Yong, female combat hero Lu Junjie, sharpshooter Li Dianshui. The national disaster is at the head, and there are many heroes. From Yang Jingyu, Peng Xuefeng, to Tong Linge, Zhao Dengyu, Hao Mengling...... Whether it is a member of the ** or a patriotic general in the Kuomintang, behind every name, there is a heroic story that can be sung and cried; Every story is a heart-wrenching patriotic song. Ordinary and great characters. They embody the Chinese nation's heroic and tenacious national spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice. It is precisely this spirit that has ensured the independence and liberation of the whole nation. Under the joint leadership of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Chinese nation will not only be able to defeat any foreign aggression, but will also overcome all difficulties and dangers to achieve the great rejuvenation of the nation. Speaking of this, Han Yunhua eased his expression, calmed down his excitement, and continued to say in a loud voice in that tragic voice: "As Chairman Jiang said: The Chinese nation is originally a peace-loving nation, and the foreign policy of the Nationalist Government has always advocated seeking self-existence at home and coexistence abroad. Since we are a weak country, if we come to the last moment, we will have to fight for the life of the whole nation in order to survive the country; At that time, we will no longer be allowed to compromise halfway, and we must know that the conditions for compromise in the middle are the conditions for the whole surrender and the whole destruction. The people of the whole country must most clearly understand the significance of the so-called last moment, and when the last moment comes, we can only win the final victory by sacrificing to the end, resisting the war to the end, and "only by sacrificing to the end". If we hesitate and hope for peace, we will fall into a land of no return, and now we are united to resist the brutal Japanese invaders, and the great unity and alliance under the banner of patriotism are not only the primary prerequisite for the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, but also an important guarantee for the realization of national rejuvenation, and facts have proved that we are fully capable of expelling all the Japanese invaders from China. The arduous ordeal cannot crush the Chinese people; A brutal enemy can only arouse the heroic spirit of the Chinese nation to fight to the death. History is silent, and the spirit is immortal. There is no doubt that the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression will be won, and at the same time, it is also a major turning point for the Chinese nation from decay to rejuvenation...... "The hour-long speech made the entire venue angry, and everyone's hearts were ignited with an inextinguishable fire of resistance against Japan. When Han Yunhua bowed and saluted, everyone in the venue unconsciously stood up and gave warm applause to the young general of the Eighth Route Army.

Han Yunhua didn't plan to say much, he was just going to go up and say a few words, but he didn't expect that it would be an hour and a half. Standing on the stage, Han Yunhua didn't feel that he had said much, but when he realized that he had occupied this stage for a full hour and a half, Han Yunhua himself felt incredible.

After Han Yunhua's speech, he answered reporters' questions as usual. The first question was asked by a reporter from Xinhua Daily: "General Han, how do you think the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression will develop?" Can China achieve a total victory? ”

"At the present stage, the national contradiction in China has risen to the main contradiction in society, and the class contradiction in the country has been reduced to a secondary contradiction, and the propaganda of the anti-Japanese nation and the peaceful settlement of the Xi'an Incident have been added, so the KMT has a basis for cooperation. At the critical juncture, heavy thinking about the future and destiny of the nation has scorched the hearts of the Chinese. At the critical moment, the chairman of our party concentrated the wisdom of the whole party to write important works such as "On Protracted War", systematically expounded the line of the all-round all-people war of resistance and the general strategic policy of protracted war, and pointed out the correct path for the victory of the war of resistance, so I firmly believe that we will be able to win the war of resistance against Japan, and this time will not be too far away. Han Yunhua's voice was sonorous and powerful, full of incomparably firm conviction, and very infectious.

The second question was asked by a foreign correspondent: "I am the correspondent of the London Times of the British Empire in China, and what I want to ask General Han is, what evidence do you have that you will definitely be able to defeat Japan?" If you know how powerful Japan is now, how famous their navy is in the world, and how much better their political system and domestic situation are than in China today, I don't see the slightest sign of victory in China today. ”,

Han Yunhua's expression was still so calm, and his voice was firm and powerful: "Just like what Chairman Jiang said in his speech at Lushan: If it really comes to the inevitable last moment, of course we only have sacrifices, only the War of Resistance, but our attitude is only to fight, not to seek war; Responding to war is to deal with the last moment, because we are a weak country, and because it is our national policy to support peace, we must not seek war; Although we are a weak country, we cannot but maintain the life of our nation and cannot live up to the historical responsibilities left to us by our ancestors. As for the fact that there is no future to the war, because we are a weak country, there is no chance of compromise, and if we give up the size of the land and sovereignty, we will be the sinners of the Chinese nation through the ages, and then we will only have to fight for the life of the whole nation and seek our final victory. We have the historical responsibility to win, and we also have the strength to win. It is true that our overall strength is far inferior to that of Japan, but I do not think that we will be able to resist Japan's invasion on our own. Looking at the so-called mainland policy formulated by the Japanese government, the target is not only China, but also the areas that Japan wants to dominate and colonize include Southeast Asia, South Asia, and even Northeast Asia. I think that with Japan's expansion, the final outcome will inevitably be a group attack, and perhaps there will be the participation of Britain, the United States, France, and the Soviet Union at that time. Mr. Reporter, don't be in a hurry to justify anything, time will tell, you just take this as a prophecy of mine, whether it can be fulfilled or not, let time prove it itself, right? ”
