Chapter 158: The Wind Blows the Red Flag and the Earth Turns Fourteen
γ158γThe Wind Blows the Red Flag and the Earth Turns (14)
Cixi is not a principled person, at least not many principles, although she hates Yao Fan's rebels, but as a long-term ruler, even if she is ignorant and reactionary, she also knows pragmatism.
So Cixi sighed resentfully and said: "Since it will take a while to prepare the army to encircle and suppress, and Yao Fan is not too fierce, and he knows that he is afraid of Tianwei and retreats to the land of projectiles, I think if he can recruit An, it is not a bad way to drive Yao Fan and his rebels back to Nanyang, and to quell this matter." Moreover, as Shen Shangshu said, even if the recruitment fails, at least the group of rebels will be stabilized in place. β
The rest of the ministers also felt that this strategy could be operated, so they nodded their heads.
Among them, only Li Hongzhang faintly felt that this matter was inappropriate, but he couldn't say what was wrong, but he just felt that Yao Fan's work was not so simple. But since this Zhao'an strategy is indispensable, it doesn't matter if it succeeds or not, so he didn't stop it.
This is also due to the slow dissemination of information in the Qing Dynasty, and if Li Hongzhang and the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu had read the book "Revolutionary Army" signed by Yao Fan two weeks later, they would never have agreed to recruit peace.
Just as the imperial court was anxiously discussing and deciding on the candidate to go to Jiaozhou to recruit An, Yao Fan's training class was in full swing.
Due to the enrollment of the golden warbler, Huang Chenglian had no choice but to order some young children from the upper and lower academies run by the Huang family to receive lectures at Yao Fan's so-called "Zaofan Youth Cadre Training Class".
The training course for young cadres was set up in a large mansion of the Guo family in Jimo City, and the diesel motors moved from Yaojiazhuang were installed in a corner of the house, and the incandescent lamps were lit by a steady stream of electricity and wires.
Yao Fan stood in front of a classroom converted into a hall and said:
"The disadvantage of today's China lies in the enslavement of education. With the feudal ideology of Confucianism, the minds of the people are imprisoned, and everyone studies only to become officials, and the social way out is narrow, and reading has no other use except to be an official. β
"Due to the enslavement education of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Chinese began to have an extremely narrow understanding of knowledge, turning a blind eye to the rapid development of scientific and technological knowledge in the world, and only burying their heads in the pile of old papers in the subset of scripture and history, which ran counter to the trend of the whole world."
"Our training class for young cadres is to break the shackles of this kind of enslavement education! Cultivate Chinese with modern vision and knowledge. β
"We offer five courses, including World History and Geography, Sociological Research, Popularization of Scientific Principles, World Music Appreciation, and World Literature Reading. These five courses are designed to open everyone's eyes to the world and build a platform and foundation for everyone to further learn in the future. β
"Our school period is only two months, and those who are willing to stay and work for the government after two months will be given jobs, and those who are not willing to stay can leave."
"The textbooks are free, and I can't come to teach them often due to my work, but of course I try to find time to discuss with you. I hope that you can preview before each class, have a wise discussion in class, study and self-study with mutual promotion, wash away the influence of feudal remnants on us from the depths of your soul, become a red and dedicated revolutionary, and become a member of the revolutionary regime in the future! β
The classroom was full of more than 100 students, except for Huang Jinying and a few children sent out from the upper and lower academies, most of the rest were born in poverty, but they all studied in private schools, and more than half of them had been exposed to the Four Books and Five Classics, and had dreamed of the path of the imperial examination, but due to various reasons such as the middle of the family road, these people finally gave up the road of studying and becoming officials.
On the one hand, Yao Fan's enrollment was announced from the society, and on the other hand, he was selected from the fighters and hired men within the Shandong Commune. Although the Qing army had already won a big victory, because the base area was too small compared to the whole country, there were very few people in the society who signed up. Yao Fan didn't care what the social applicants were coming for, considering the dilemma of the lack of people in front of him, after strict identification, as long as they were not spies of the Qing army or famous local hooligans, they would all be accepted.
Yao Fan adjusted the volume of the portable speaker and selected the tracks, while saying: "Before the formal study, we have to learn a song, after learning this song, I think everyone will understand, what kind of great regime our revolutionary regime is, and what a glorious cause we are fighting for!" β
"It's called the Internationale! Open the World Music Appreciation Textbook, there are lyrics on it, please follow the lyrics and memorize the tune. β
Yao Fan saw that everyone immediately opened the textbook, and discerned the meaning of the strange but easy-to-understand simplified characters on it, so he pressed the playback button, and the male and female vocal choruses of the China Symphony Choir flowed out like the Yangtze River, deafening.
"Arise, hungry slaves
Arise, all the people who are suffering
The blood is already boiling
Fight for the truth
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
After the song was played, there were already students in the classroom with tears in their eyes.
Yao Fan wondered, could they understand what Interna Xiongnael meant?
"Internacional means international**, this doctrine is a social form that we revolutionaries need to fight for all our lives, it doesn't matter if you don't understand it for the time being, and then we will explain all the concepts one by one."
"To put it simply, there are two ideologies in this world, one is idealistic and the other is materialistic, and if the word ideology is directly translated in English, it is actually the logic of thinking, and the logic of a person's thinking determines his reaction to everything in the world......"
Yao Fan's first class lasted a whole morning, and he announced the end of class to eat only when his mouth was dry.
"Back then, the Zedong Youth Thought School in Yan'an was much easier than me, right? At least Taizu's students are all new youths after the May Fourth Enlightenment, right? Yao Fan walked out of the classroom and thought silently.
Yao Fan comforted himself and said: "If you do difficult things, you will get something, if it is just a simple repetition, then what is the challenge?" How can work that isn't challenging be rewarding? β
If Huang Jinying joined the youth cadre training class only out of admiration for Yao Fan's personal charm at the beginning, but after only a morning of classes, she was completely impressed by Yao Fan.
"Is he God? Ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, science, engineering, agriculture and medicine, philosophical thoughts, social forms, he knows everything and knows everything, although his speech is not as literate as a pedant, but he speaks the vernacular so clearly and clearly, and the truth makes people understand it as soon as they hear it! β
Not only the golden warbler, all the students were impressed by Yao Fan's erudition, after a class, everyone looked at Yao Fan's eyes were no longer the awe of the superior at the beginning, but a kind of worship-like reverence, some students' eyes were fanatical light, as if they saw a new world, saw a bright holy road to heaven.
In the next three days, Yao Fan arranged all aspects of the work of the Shandong Commune and crossed the blood sacrifice again.
Yao Fan's parents were overjoyed to see Yao Fan come back, and the whole family held a banquet in a Qingdao restaurant to celebrate.
"Yao Fan, the materials you need have been prepared for you, and they are all piled up in the reservoir area." Yao Fan's father, Yao Peng, said.
Yao Fan ate prawns and roasted cabbage, as if he hadn't eaten it for ten years, took out a small notebook and handed it to Yao Peng and said, "Dad, this is the material I need next time." β
Yao Peng took the small notebook and said: "All the 19 tons of gold you brought last time have been sold, and only one ton has been left for our newly acquired subordinate gold jewelry factory in Yaofu Jinlou for personal use." β
"So fast?" Yao Fan was surprised.
Yao Peng said proudly: "I have applied for the membership of the Gold Exchange, and the Gold Exchange is very neat and has given us a temporary membership of Yaofu Gold, with which we can be allowed to import gold." I also asked your Uncle Wu's overseas company to complete the import procedures for this batch of gold. Now we can list and sell gold that meets the standards on the gold exchange, and we can also trade gold futures online through the GuΓ² Futures Exchange, and we can choose to keep a certificate for physical delivery. β
Yao Fanxi said: "That's great! I'll just say, as long as you spend money to get a gold exchange membership, in the future, our gold can be laundered through guΓ² and overseas leather bag companies to go through import procedures, and the import tariff on gold is zero, which shows that the country is encouraging gold imports and expanding the domestic futures gold exchange market, and China's gold futures trading market will replace London sooner or later, there is no doubt about it! β
Yao Peng asked, "How are you doing over there?" β
Yao Fan swallowed the minced meat and sea cucumber in his mouth, took a sip of tea, and began to tell Yao Peng and Li Hongmei about his victory over the Qing army.
Yao Fan's crossing story was told steadily, and he didn't dare to exaggerate the danger at all, but Yao Peng and Li Hongmei were still shocked when they heard it.
"Fanfan, you actually rebelled! You still dare to go to the battlefield! How can you get such a rain of bullets! Next time, you should call your subordinates, you will stay in Qingdao by yourself, and if you are defeated, you will simply come back and live a peaceful life. Li Hongmei knew that what she said was in vain, but she couldn't help but say it while being surprised.
"Mom, don't worry, I'll stay behind and command the safety." Yao Fan comforted.
"Yao Peng, I heard that there are foreign defense bullet suits sold on the Internet? Let's hurry up and buy a few pieces for Fanfan! Li Hongmei said worriedly.
Yao Peng has long known that Yao Fan didn't buy weapons to rebel, but he has never sued Li Hongmei, and now it is convenient to say it.
"The child is so old, he himself knows that it is a good thing to pay attention to safety, overthrowing the Qing Dynasty, it is a great progress for that era, which means that the whole country will be civilized and enter a new period, which is a great thing for the Chinese nation to enter the exhibition period in advance, Li Hongmei, you have to obey the overall situation!" Yao Peng educated.
"your big picture!" Li Hongmei said angrily.
"Fanfan, you must bring body armor this time! Otherwise, I won't let you go to that hellish place again!" Li Hongmei gave an ultimatum, but she has already made a big concession, in fact, according to her wishes, she hopes that Yao Fan can stay in 2o11 forever.
"Okay, I'll listen to my mother." Yao Fan said honestly.
