And Mr. Sun Wen did not live up to their enthusiasm, and began to communicate with young students over there, and after Lao Yuan said two words and was interrupted by the applause over there, he stopped asking, and stood side by side with Yang Xiaolin, watching Sun Wen's passionate performance.

"Mr. Sun Wen, do you think this peace talks will bring us to democracy in China?"

"Yes! I came to Beijing with confidence, and I don't want to go back empty-handed! For the sake of hundreds of millions of Chinese compatriots, we must fulfill the mission entrusted to us by the times! ”

"Sir, how far do you think China needs to be to be considered to be among the top countries in Shijie? Can we become one of the Shijie powers? ”

"It's going to take a joint effort! Not only me, but also you, as long as we, the sons and daughters of China, are united, I believe that our national rejuvenation is just around the corner! ”

Every word he said was matched with body language, expressing his emotions strongly, and the young students saw that he had to answer all questions, and their emotions rose even higher. And the school and the Beiyang Army, which maintained order, didn't say anything when they saw Yuan Shikai, and they didn't come up to pull the students away.

I don't know what Lao Yuan thinks, but at this time, he suddenly smashed Yang Xiaolin with his arm: "Commander Yang, do you think China can become rich and strong?" ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled at the corner of his mouth: "As long as Yuan Gong and I are united, I also believe that it will be just around the corner." ”

Lao Yuan took a look at him and united with Yang to fight ghosts? Are you kidding! He laughed twice and stopped asking.

At this time, a young man standing in the middle of the crowd suddenly jumped up and raised his hand: "Mr. Sun Wen, I have a question I want to ask." ”

Sun Wen's eyes suddenly lit up after seeing the young man, and his hand immediately pointed over: "Okay, you ask." ”

Although these children are passionate, they are all children who study and are cultivated. After seeing that Sun Wen had designated the speaker, the other people who raised their hands immediately fell silent, and the people around the young man also took the initiative to give way to the side.

"Sir. I'm not a student of the academy, I'm from Nanjing, my name is He Haiming. ”

The corners of Sun Wen's mouth smiled, and he recognized this young man at first sight. At the beginning, He Haiming's passionate speech in Nanjing left a deep impression on Sun Wen.

He Haiming immediately asked: "I want to ask sir, can the implementation of democracy go smoothly?" If the Beiyang government and the Northeast government are unwilling to negotiate peace, does Mr. have the determination to fight to the end? ”

This question was very sharp, especially since Yang Xiaolin and Yuan Shikai were standing next to them. Yang Xiaolin found that a sneer appeared on the corner of Yuan Shikai's mouth, he knew that Lao Yuan must want to ask Sun Wen, what to use to fight the Beiyang Army? Is it just his passion? Despise him.

Mr. Sun Wen's answer this time is obviously evasive, and he has the taste of a skilled politician: "I believe that Yuan Gong and Commander Yang will definitely put the nation first." I have already said that I can dedicate my life for the sake of democracy. ”

Such an answer will not win the warm applause of the young people, then He Haiming is obviously not satisfied, as soon as Sun Wen finished speaking, he immediately shouted: "I have a sentence I still want to ask Commander Yang, I don't know if Commander Yang is willing to answer?" ”

Sun Wen didn't say a word, and the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and all eyes were on Yang Xiaolin. It seems that at this time, they remembered that there was still Yang Xiaolin.

He Haiming obviously belongs to the type of hot-blooded youth, Yang Xiaolin has not yet expressed his intention to answer or not, he opened his mouth and asked: "Commander Yang, I want to ask you Weishenme is unwilling to accept Mr. Sun Wen's federal system?" I would also like to know that your attitude towards negotiations these days weishenme is not positive? Don't you want our nation to embark on the road of democracy, prosperity and strength? ”

This is not a question. It's tantamount to a naked rebuke.

Yuan Shikai felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and when he wanted to excuse Yang Xiaolin, Yang Xiaolin took two steps towards the place where He Haiming was standing.

"Classmate, how old are you this year?"

He Haiming raised his head: "Nineteen." I'm not as old as the commander, though. But I am confident that my knowledge of this shijie is not much inferior to that of Commander Yang. Is it okay for the commander to answer my question? ”

There was no fear in his eyes, Yang Xiaolin liked it a little, really. He likes such enthusiastic Chinese youth.

"Then let me ask you a question, do you know that there is an animal called a wildebeest?"

He Haiming was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand what Yang Xiaolin was talking about wildebeest at this time? But he nodded subconsciously.

Yang Xiaolin had already walked to the side of the students at this time, and he could clearly see the expression on He Haiming's face: "The wildebeest has a characteristic that it migrates once a year, and in autumn, it migrates to places with abundant water and grass, in order to survive a cold winter. ”

He Haiming didn't speak, Yang Xiaolin continued: "The migration of wildebeest is in groups, they often act together with tens of thousands of wildebeest, but only less than two or three out of ten can reach the destination of zuihou, young man, do you know weishenme?" ”

He Haiming obviously knows: "During the migration of wildebeest, many carnivores will also migrate with them, tigers, lions, hunting dogs, during this time, they all feed on wildebeest, especially lions, it will follow the wildebeest herd for a long distance, and even follow to the destination." If wildebeest can survive the winter, so will they. ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled: "Yes, this is what I want to give you the answer!" ”

The students' expressions were stunned, and they didn't quite understand what this had to do with the current situation. Yang Xiaolin raised a finger and pointed into the air: "Our country is like a group of animals on the grassland, we want to get rid of the cold, we want to survive the cold winter, and we want to find a place with plenty of food so that we can live in peace and stability, so we are migrating, moving to a place we all yearn for." ”

"When we set out on this road, we had two options, we could choose to become a herd of wildebeests, strong wildebeests, so that we would have a lot of companions, and we would not have to worry about food, and we would be able to eat water and grass as soon as we looked down. Second, we can also try to be a lion, maybe lonely, maybe emaciated, maybe we have to fight wolves, tigers, hounds, leopards and other fierce predators for food. Students, which one do you want to choose? ”

The young people around him were quiet, and a very complicated expression appeared on He Haiming's face, as if he had something to ask, but he didn't know where to start.

Yang Xiaolin's tone was still very calm, and he smiled slightly and said: "This multiple-choice question has already been done, in 1840, the Qing Dynasty chose to be a wildebeest, and our neighbor Japanese, they chose to be a lion!" The result? You don't need me to tell you, do you? ”

"There may be a lot of wildebeest, maybe a lot of them! Just like before the Qing Dynasty! But his ultimate destiny was predestined when he chose to be a wildebeest, and that was to become the belly of a lion. ”

He Haiming spoke again, his voice no longer had the tone of accusation at the beginning, on the contrary, he was a little hesitant: "The goal we want to achieve through democracy is also to make the country rich and strong." ”

Commander Yang's eyes looked at him: "Yes, you are right. Democracy is an inevitable trend and the fastest way for us to become rich and strong. But what I'm telling you is that a loose federation is not for China. I know that you all think that the United States can succeed and so can we. Students, you have forgotten the most fundamental problem, the United States has the Atlantic Ocean to provide them with natural protection, and we have jackals here at our doorstep. ”

After Yang Xiaolin told the young students this, he looked at Sun Wen's face, and he suddenly found that Mr. Sun Wen also seemed to be thoughtful. He didn't think that he could convince Sun Wen, but he felt that he should express something to Sun Wen.

But he found that the young man named Jiang Zhiqing standing beside Sun Wen seemed to be listening very attentively. When he looked at Jiang Zhiqing, the kid actually turned his head away.

Yang Xiaolin smiled in his heart, didn't look at him again, and continued to say to the students in front of him: "Maybe you won't understand that I have to fight all the time, and I don't want to put down the weapon in my hand. I can tell you that I am trying to turn myself into a lion, even if my opponent is much stronger than me, I will bravely pounce on him and bite him, this is the fighting spirit of a lion! Even if I'm hungry and skinny, I don't eat grass, because I know that when the first bite of grass hits my stomach, I'll become a wildebeest. ”

When Commander Yang said this, he glanced at He Haiming very meaningfully, and he pointed his hand at He Haiming: "Now this multiple-choice question has been put in front of us again, the Chinese nation has been plundered and plundered, and a group of robbers are peeking at our door!" Do you think what we have to do now is to clench the liliang of the whole nation into a fist, or to form our country into a loose federation? ”

He Haiming felt as if his heart was shaken by something, and he was speechless. He is a person who pursues peace and democracy, and he has always supported Sun Wen because Sun Wen has the same concept as him.

But now Yang Xiaolin began to make him reflect. Surrounded by predatory animals, what if you become a wildebeest, no matter how strong you are? Is federal democracy suitable for China?

Yang Xiaolin's face is still that confident, with a slight smile. He said to the young men, "Students, you don't need to tell me the answer, because it makes no sense. But you have to make a choice in your own hearts! Gnu? Or a lion? Answer yourselves. ”

Do you choose to be a wildebeest or a lion?

This question ignited the enthusiasm of the young people, and they immediately began to discuss it. Zhao Dong stood in the middle of the students, listening to everyone's discussions, and didn't know what to say.

This time, he came to the Beijing Normal University Hall and was brought by a good friend. On the one hand, he also wanted to see what the most haode university in China was like after returning from the UK, and on the other hand, he also wanted to see Sun Wen and Yuan Shikai.
