562 Young man in Hamburg
On September 15, 1790, thousands of citizens of Hamburg took to the streets, holding high slogans and red flags, and the vast majority of the members of the city council responded to the call of the citizens to declare the city of Hamburg officially disassociated with the Holy Roman Empire and officially joined a German republic that no one had heard of before. Pen~Fun~Cabinet www.biquge.info Hamburg's armed forces also swore allegiance to the new republic, people cheered, a black, red and blue tricolor flag fluttered in the Hamburg city square, and the chairman of the German National Revolution, Marnes, gave a speech to the citizens.
"My compatriots, my comrades-in-arms, on this day the great German Republic was founded! For hundreds of years, the Germans lived humbly on this land, suffering from wars and oppression and exploitation by the aristocracy, the country was divided, and there was no hope or tomorrow. Each and every one of us has had enough of all this, and a revolution that conforms to the will of the people and the general trend of the world is exactly what the Germans need! The spring breeze of internationalism drifted from across the ocean to the European continent, and the Germans, who yearn for happiness, freedom, democracy, and unity, have since acquired the spirit of unity, have the weapons to fight against the old forces, and at this moment, raise our hands high, and send out the strongest roar to the old nobles of feudalism and darkness. Today, when the tricolor flag of the Republic is flying, that is, the flame of hope is beginning to spread, the internationalist fighters of all Germany are ready, the trumpet of revolution has been sounded, and we, our comrades of the internationalist class from all directions, have come to Germany to fight side by side with us! The revolution will succeed, and Germany will be victorious! ”
Marnes was a natural orator, and he possessed all the qualities of a politician. It's not handsome, but it's a very imposing face. The stiffness of the lines seems to represent the toughness of his character. The eyes are deep, and the eyes are insightful and warm. His voice is magnetic, and even when he speaks in a low voice, he is full of a kind of vocal luster, even when a group of people are talking at the same time, people can hear his voice first. He is full of critical thinking, logical integrity, and quick reactions, and anyone will be impressed by his personal charm, even someone like Bai Nan. It is also recognized that Marnes is the most outstanding elite of every era.
His speech made the crowd in the whole square boil, and people threw their hats into the sky and shouted slogans:
"Long live the revolution!"
"Long live the people!"
"Long live Germany!"
"Long live internationalism!"
Thousands of party members of the German National Revolution, as well as those soldiers who originally belonged to the Tang German Corps, began to sing loudly:
"Arise, hungry slaves!
Arise, all the suffering people of the world!
Full of blood has boiled,
Fight for the truth!
The old world is a falling flower,
Slaves get up, get up!
Don't say we have nothing.
We want to be the masters of the world!
This is the last struggle, united to tomorrow.
Internachonel must be realized!
This is the last struggle, united to tomorrow,
Internachonel must be realized!
There has never been a savior,
Nor does it depend on the Immortal Emperor!
To create the happiness of mankind,
It's all up to us!
We want to reclaim the fruits of our labor,
Let the mind break through the cage!
Quickly burn the fire red,
Strike while the iron is hot to succeed!
This is the last struggle, united to tomorrow,
Internachonel must be realized!
This is the last struggle, united to tomorrow,
Internachonel must be realized! ”
Even if there is no military band to perform, and even if the singers have no musical training, their sincere emotions and fiery revolutionary fighting spirit are truly moving. This international anthem is naturally a product of the Tang Dynasty cottage and is designated as the anthem of the First International. At the same time, it also spread to the National Revolutionary Party in various countries, where the song was translated into different languages and sung among everyone who embraced internationalism.
From the perspective of a musical work, the Internationale is extremely infectious, and even those who hear it for the first time can feel the infinite power of the song. And the revolutionaries who sang loudly, with their own spirit and lives, made the song that sounded on Hamburg Square have a stronger vitality.
A few young Germans, who had barely been exposed to internationalism before, were completely intimidated and incited by the singing of the Internationale. Nineteen-year-old Cromo waved his hands with everyone, he had a long mouth, and although he didn't know what the lyrics of the song were, he still sang the song over and over again. He had never felt a spirit so alive and so motivating.
Together with his companions, young people who had nothing to do on the streets in the past were completely infected by this atmosphere. The overthrow of the old society, the ushering of the new society, the establishment of a united Germany, and the pursuit of freedom and dignity for the people, these concepts may have been heard by them, but they were only a distant thing, but at the moment they felt that each letter of these words seemed to be full of brilliance and truth.
At this moment, Cromo desperately wanted to join the people with red armbands and a red five star on their hats, which he thought was so special. Idealism is important for young people, who want to be part of an honorable group and make themselves glorious too.
When the singing ended, the rally was officially over, and Marnes shook hands with the people in the street, surrounded by a crowd of people, and various slogans continued to be heard from the crowd.
"Confiscation of noble land!"
"Go to Berlin, hit to Munich!"
The young man Mesut was stunned and said, "Are you going to fight?" ”
Cromo exclaimed, "Isn't that a matter of course? Now we are citizens of the German Republic, citizens of freedom! Our enemies are the kings and the nobles, and we have to fight for the legitimate rights of all Germans, but the nobles and bullies will not hand them over to us, only the war will come back. ”
Mesut said: "But with only such a few people, how can they beat the mighty Prussia?" ”
Cromo was very smart: "Do you see that there were so many people in the Hamburg Guards in the past in this square?" Today's soldiers are several times more than that, and the National Revolution has a huge influence not only in Hamburg, but also in other cities. Moreover, didn't you just say that only those supported by the people can achieve final success. Don't think about it, Mesut, let's join the Revolutionary Army too! (To be continued.) )
