20. Encounters Across Time and Space (Part II)
Before leaving for the visit, General Political Commissar Hu had made various speculations about their true identities: it was possible that they were members of the CCP's underground party who had lost contact with the organization; It is also possible that a new liaison was sent from Moscow; There may also be the remnants of the Second European International; It is also possible that Trotskyites who were driven out of the Soviet Union by Stalin and had to come to China to pick up the slack......
I have to admit that within the red camp at this time, there are actually quite a lot of various mountains.
Although no matter what kind of speculation it is, it feels very unreliable just by thinking about it, but at least it is still within the scope of General Political Commissar Hu Dexing's understanding.
However, the answer that General Political Commissar Hu Dexing Zuihou got from the other party was completely outside the scope of his understanding.
“…… General Political Commissar Hu, there are some things in this world, even if you want to make up lies, you can't hide them after all, everyone is a communist who pays attention to seeking truth from facts, so I still want to be honest with you, I do not belong to this era, but a Communist Party member from the 21st century. ”
When Professor Yang, who was wearing reading glasses on the other side, explained his origin in this way with a calm expression, Hu Dexing's mind suddenly became blank - as a staunch materialist, he certainly could not accept this absurd fact as if it were the plot of a second-rate science fiction novel.
But the problem is that the dark and deep "wormhole" suspended in the center of the room, as well as these real "future high-tech products" in front of him, is difficult to make other reasonable explanations with Hu Dexing's insight - the camera (digital camera) that can see images without using film is already very surprising to him; And only a matchbox-sized sound recording and playback device (voice recorder). It made General Political Commissar Hu Dexing feel as if he had stepped into a science fiction novel written by an American author: in a time when the recording of sound could only be done by Edison's records, and even audio tapes had not yet been invented, even the scientific research departments of the European and American powers. It is absolutely impossible to make such a high-tech product.
(The original tape was invented by the Germans in 1935, but it was not until the sixties that it was miniaturized, the later domestic type.) )
So, by the time Professor Yang took out a laptop and showed him some documentary clips about the history of the Communist Party of China and the Second Shijie War, General Political Commissar Hu was completely numb. Until after watching the whole film, there was silence for a while. He opened his mouth quietly.
“…… Comrade Yang Wenli, since you are from the next century, why don't you use your knowledge of history that has not yet happened? To help the comrades of this era? He questioned, "...... Don't you love your country? Isn't there a desire to save this suffering China? ”
When he said these words, his eyes were shocked, resolute, confused, and fearful, and all kinds of emotions were vivid and chaotic. Opposites and mixed ones.
This is a heavy question. The thin-skinned Professor Yang couldn't open his mouth. As the captain, Wang Qiu had no choice but to stand up and take over the conversation.
“…… Senior Hu, the Chinese of every era have their own responsibilities, and no matter whether they have done it well or badly, they should not expect to hand over the burden to others to pick it up -- it is the responsibility of your generation to save the old China that suffered so much; It is the responsibility of our ancestors to rebuild the devastated New China; Let the Chinese get rid of poverty and backwardness and live a well-off life. It is the responsibility of our fathers...... And a century later, the responsibility of our generation of Chinese. It is to let the goods made in China spread all over Shijie, let the Chinese nation completely rejuvenate, and reproduce the grand occasion of the coming dynasty of all countries in the past! ”
Wang Qiu said calmly, "...... Senior Hu, don't you think that scolding us like just now seems to be a suspicion of shirking responsibility? ”
In the face of Wang Qiu's rebuttal, General Political Commissar Hu Dexing silently bowed his head and was silent for a while, and then nodded in agreement with some disappointment, "...... All right! I admit that you are right, pie will not fall from the sky, and it is the responsibility of our generation, not your future generations, to save this disaster-ridden China...... But, weishenme, will you have girls in kimonos here? Are they really Japanese? ”
“…… That's right, they're all Japanese powerhouses, and they're currently our allies. Wang Qiu nodded.
This straightforward answer made Hu Dexing's face flush for a moment, and it took a long time to hold back a scolding from between his teeth: "...... Traitors! ”
“…… Hu senior! Don't think about it! There is nothing eternal in this world! It is true that Japan is the sworn enemy of China today, but what if it was Japan a century ago? In the same way, Japan in a century will be different from today......"
Wang Qiu smiled bitterly, "...... Not long before we were there, we had just fought the Americans in Tokyo and returned triumphantly! ”
“…… Fighting the Americans in Tokyo? Could it be that Japan over there has become a trophy for China and the United States? Hu Dexing exclaimed.
“…… Barely you can say that, but you have to add Russian ......," Wang Qiu thought for a while and replied.
“…… This...... It's really feng shui in turn! I didn't expect that such an arrogant and domineering little Japan would have a day when it was slaughtered by others......"
Hu Dexing sighed a little dejectedly, and then continued to ask, "...... So, did our party zuihou win? ”
-- The documentary just shown was only up to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the full-scale outbreak of the Pacific War, so he asked this question.
But in the next moment, Hu Dexing immediately realized that he had asked a stupid question - if there was no victory, where did the other party come from?
“…… So, when do we emerge victorious? So, without waiting for the "future comrade" to speak, he quickly changed his tone and asked.
“…… Yes, our party zuihou won. It is now 1934, and the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression will break out in 1937 three years later, and will be victorious in 1945 eleven years later, and the Red New China will be officially born in 1949, fifteen years later......," Wang Qiu replied with a nod of his head.
“…… In this way, even if everything develops according to the original historical process, will we resist the encirclement and suppression of the opposition, defeat the traitors and the Japanese invaders, win the imminent outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, and establish a socialist new China? Hu Dexing's tone seemed to bring a bit of excitement and excitement.
“…… True, but before the dawn of victory came, the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army would suffer the worst setback since its formation in the past few years, and the central Soviet districts of Kiangsi would soon fall completely, and the revolutionary base areas in the south would not last long......"
Looking at General Political Commissar Hu's excited expression because he knew the bright future, Wang Qiu couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on him. (To be continued......)
