24. The Appearance of the Underground Party (Middle) (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

In the history of modern China, which is full of pain and shame, there is such a great society that shocks Shijie.

It was first founded in 1921, and its historical background is far less than that of the old gangsters such as Hongmen, Qinggang, and Triad. However, with the full efforts of many amazing members of the organization, it only took 30 years for it to stand at the top of China's Shili pyramids.

And the only gang of its kind that has been able to compete with it for decades was swept out of Chinese mainland as early as the middle of the last century.

Today, it has withdrawn from China's list of "dynamic social groups" because it simply does not bother to be on the list. However, its shili is spread all over the land of China. Beijing, Shenyang, Jinan, Nanjing, Lanzhou, Chengdu and Guangzhou are the settlements of its seven halls. The number of gang members is as high as more than 80 million, and the professional thugs are close to 3.5 million, of which 200,000 younger brothers are responsible for maintaining China's underground order, and 900,000 younger brothers are responsible for sweeping away the local slightly larger ants. This powerful society, its name is taboo throughout China......

Well, to get back to the point, in 1934, the organization had just suffered its worst blow since its birth. In particular, the main hall entrances and dark lines in the Shanghai area were almost swept away by the hostile shili. Only a few small groups remained, like kites with broken strings, still struggling in the storm of white terror. Neither of them knew of each other's existence.

Among these people, there are progressive students who are not afraid of tigers when they are newborn calves, and women workers in yarn mills who have been drained of their youth and health by overwork. There are rickshaw drivers who work hard but cannot support their families, there are patriotic literati who sympathize with the people's woes and resentment of foreigners, and there are bankrupt farmers in the suburbs who are exploited by landlords with usury until their families are ruined and their wives are separated...... The above-mentioned members are basically within the scope of Wang Qiu's understanding. But he never imagined that in the underground party in Shanghai, there were still "sex workers", to be precise, professional juniors......

So. I saw General Political Commissar Hu Dexing, who was wearing a priest's robe, hurriedly carrying a dusty woman with heavy makeup and breaking into his house, Sister Jin Qina, who was the "standard-bearer of the women's liberation movement". His face was really unpredictable for a while...... Not to mention that behind the back of General Political Commissar Hu Dexing, he is still following a large number of people - Marx is on top! General Political Commissar Hu, you are actually openly engaged in underground activities in the White Zone?

Until I saw clearly the outfit of the voters behind General Political Commissar Hu: all of them had crosses around their necks, and they held the Bible or the statue of Our Lady in their hands. Closing your mouth is "May Allah bless you...... Wang Qiu suddenly realized. It turned out that General Political Commissar Hu used his identity as a "red priest" to the extreme, and disguised the entire communist red group under his management as a group of devout Christians......

I have to admit that this is indeed a good way to cover up the activities of the underground party. Regular meetings can be held in the form of worship, and even if others see that something is wrong, they will usually only think that "fake foreign devils who believe in foreign religions are going crazy...... Even if you have to go to the countryside, it is normal for the missionaries to travel all over China in those years, and even on the Red Army's Long March, they have encountered several foreign churches in the most remote southwestern corners......

Just after watching them. I don't know why, it always reminds people of the old men and women who distribute flyers in subway stations in modern society?

But anyway. Now that trouble has come to the door, whether it is out of face or friendship, it is really not good......

At this time, there was an Australian professional traveler who graduated from medical school and is now a "military doctor", who had just returned from Nanjing Road after a lot of shopping, Wang Qiu caught him and asked this foreign devil to treat Gu Mansha, a "dusty woman" wearing a cheongsam.

As a result, this guy seems to have been involved in fighting and killing for a long time, his work major is seriously inappropriate, and his medical business is a lot unfamiliar, so he has to flip through books and read notes, and use the laptop he carries with him to consult the case database, and he tosses for a long time before giving a diagnosis:

“…… Look at the symptoms...... It should be very serious tuberculosis! How could the condition be dragged to such a serious level? ”

Looking at the diagnostic medical records typed out by the Australian half-hung military doctor on the computer, Wang Qiu felt a little confused and asked General Political Commissar Hu.

“…… Alas, what can be done? I didn't know that Mansa would suffer from such a terminal illness......"

Looking at this female disciple who was finally found from the vast sea of people and was able to inherit her mantle, and now her face was haggard and dying, General Political Commissar Hu Dexing also felt a throbbing pain in her heart - where can you find a diamond-level good seedling like Gu Mansha who can establish the belief in scientific communism in only half a month, and can be named a "political commissar" in only one month, and perform "this unscientific" stunt to kill demons and demons?

“…… This tuberculosis has been an incurable disease since ancient times, if it is calm, good health and recuperation, and can also rely on rest and reasonable diet to prolong the life of the patient, some well-recuperated tuberculosis patients, even after the infection of more than ten years, such as Mr. Lu Xun...... But with such a bad family and such a mean temperament as Mansha, how can she not be angry...... Alas, to tell you the truth, she is also a poor wretch!

Previously, I had taken her to several clinics I knew well, and the doctors in them all said that her illness was incurable, and it was a blessing to be able to hang herself in bed with ginseng soup for several months...... Now I really have no choice but to treat the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and drag Mansha to you to take a look. I wonder if a hundred years later, the medical skills in this world have advanced to the extent that they can treat tuberculosis? ”

-- Before the invention of antibiotics, tuberculosis was basically an incurable and terminal disease. Even in the thirties of the twentieth century, there were only a handful of brilliant doctors who could use surgical methods to treat tuberculosis, and one of them was Norman. Bethune......

“…… Hehe, Hu senior. You're asking the right person! If it's cancer, we don't have a one-size-fits-all cure; If it is syphilis, even if it can be cured, it will have quite serious sequelae. But what about tuberculosis...... It's a piece of cake. ”

on this. Wang Qiu patted his chest very confidently, and then instructed the Australian half-hung military doctor to take out a million units of streptomycin injection from the medicine box, but instead of directly using the medicine, he diluted it with distilled water to a certain proportion before injecting Gu Mansha.

-- The reason why streptomycin is used instead of the more famous penicillin is that although penicillin is effective in treating various bacterial infections caused by war wounds and other causes, streptomycin is useful in treating tuberculosis, a terminal disease. It has a more incomparable sound effect; The reason why streptomycin injections should be diluted in a large proportion is to take into account the resistance of people in the "pre-antibiotic era" to antibiotics.

During World War II, a few dozen to a hundred units of penicillin would have worked. Regarded as a miracle cure. But then, the resistance of the bacteria increased rapidly, and the amount of penicillin had to keep up with it, and in the 21st century. The same condition can easily cost millions of units. It may not be curable.

If anyone did not think of this section in advance, and directly followed the content of the drug instructions, that is, the standard dosage of ordinary people in the 21st century, to give antibiotics to patients in the early 20th century, then it is equivalent to sprinkling hundreds or even thousands of times more pesticides on the cultivated land in one breath, which not only kills harmful germs, but is also likely to cause the patient's own organs, tissues and cells to be wiped out without distinction between good and bad...... No way. Human resistance in the pre-antibiotic era was able to follow the use of penicillin and streptomycin decades later. How does it compare to humans who have been tested by various antibiotics?

As for Wang Qiu, they had indiscriminately cut the amount of medicine in the ancient time and space, and they distributed oral antibiotic pills everywhere as a panacea...... That's completely disregarding human life, taking the sick as a shiyan product, how many can be saved, it is normal for the doctor to die, and it is a blessing from the gods to save the life. Then he died and died, and slowly figured out the applicable dosage and diagnosis and treatment rules of the "pre-antibiotic era". And the ancient natives who acted as shiyan products for nine deaths, not only could not be the slightest bit angry about this, but also had to thank someone for coming to save their lives - otherwise they would really be dead!

At the same time, after obtaining the consent of General Political Commissar Hu Dexing, Ma Tong, Cai Rong, and Ms. Xiao Se, the top leader of the department who had just arrived to supervise her, also revealed their identity as "future comrades" to these Shanghai underground party comrades in the thirties of the 20th century. And in order to ensure convincing, various "high-tech products" such as voice recorders, walkmans, laptops, three-dimensional projections, and toy robots are all displayed.

Next, taking advantage of the favorable opportunity of the trance, shock, and general confusion of these people, Kotori Yu Mashiro (of course, in order to avoid more incidents, she did not reveal her Japanese identity) took the opportunity to give them all hints, so that these members of the Shanghai underground party who were not firm in their atheist beliefs had to keep their secrets for a period of time no matter what, otherwise their hearts would be wrenched and their whole body would convuls......

Then, Senior Sister Ma Tong, who has always been a good person, took out a copy of "Shanghai Local Chronicles - Political Parties" out of nowhere, and asked about the identity and name of the underground party one by one...... As a result, they were disappointed to find that they were all nobodies, and there was not even a historical celebrity from the Shanghai underground party, and it did not match the list records in the historical materials that would be made public in the future.

“…… Tian Han, who wrote "March of the Volunteers", is not there? What the? Absence? What about his good friend Lin Boxiu? Belch? No one knows each other? So Xu Ya? Chen Guodong? Gu Zhun? Wang Alin...... Huh? Why are all these guys with names and surnames in the book not among you? ”

What is even more strange is that these people are affiliated with the CCP's special branch (intelligence system) according to their organization, but they are not even rookies, and they belong to the "enthusiastic masses" through and through -- except for General Political Commissar Hu Dexing himself, there is not even a single party member, and there is only one member of the league.

This strange situation made all the "future comrades" can't help but mutter, and the comrades of this era can't help but feel quite lost after learning that they are all unknown in history...... Zuihou, or General Political Commissar Hu Dexing, revealed the mystery with some embarrassment -- this red underground party group disguised as a Christian missionary team was actually a small group developed by him independently, and was intended to be incorporated into the system of the Comintern's exorcism column in the future, so it is likely that it will not be recorded in the official history. Furthermore. Except for General Political Commissar Hu himself, the other members of the group basically had no horizontal ties with several other party organizations in Shanghai. Now in the hands of Mr. Lu Xun, the liaison, the only person who is famous is General Political Commissar Hu Dexing himself.

-- In the revolutionary years. Many of the underground party organizations in the white areas are single-lined, and once the upline institutions are destroyed by the enemy, the lower-level party organizations become isolated. If you are particularly unlucky, you can't even restore contact for more than ten years.

Under these circumstances, if the decoupled and isolated Party organizations can continue to persist in the revolutionary work and do not make any mistakes, the Party Central Committee will admit it after the resumption of contact and hooking. So in those turbulent times. The underground party, the old Red Army, and the like, who had often lost contact with them, could not find a large army, so they had to return to their hometowns and mobilize the workers and peasants to organize. Then it was once again absorbed and accepted by the resurgent Party and the Red Army.

This small group of General Political Commissar Hu Dexing belongs to such a situation -- since the Party Central Committee fled Shanghai and moved to the Central Soviet District of Jiangxi, General Political Commissar Hu Dexing and his only assistant to the Communist Youth League members have completely lost contact with the party organization. Afterwards. Although he traveled through the vast Mr. Lu Xun. I was vaguely aware of the existence of some other remnants of the underground party, but for the sake of safety, I never took the initiative to contact him.

-- In view of the current state of the underground party organization in Shanghai, which is fragmented and leaderless, it is unable to contact any higher-level units at home and abroad, it does not have the funds to launch the workers' movement in its pockets, and it is even unable to elect a leader who can convince the masses internally, and it is very difficult to even maintain its own survival. Even if they are reunited, I am afraid they will not be able to do anything. It's better to continue lurking. It's good to be able to preserve your strength and wait for the future.

However, after getting a sum of money from the traverser. However, the mentality of General Political Commissar Hu Dexing gradually underwent a subtle change......

―――――――――――――――――――――

For the sake of safety, after giving Gu Mansha an injection of streptomycin, under the leadership of General Political Commissar Hu Dexing, everyone transported Gu Mansha, who was still unconscious, back to a pavilion she rented by car -- it was actually in Huajie, Nanshi, Shanghai, not far from Jin Qina's new home.

Then, Wang Qiu finally deeply realized the living environment of most ordinary citizens in Shanghai in this era.

- In a cramped room of less than six square meters, there was only a broken bed and a stool that dangled like a rocking chair; Several thin walls full of gaps and holes make it easy for you to feel the wind all year round indoors; The dark and damp alleys always smell of feces, the crumbling stairwells are filled with the musty smell of rotting wood, and the smell of food coming out of the kitchen is everywhere......

Most of the tenants here make a living by selling their coolies, and they toiled all day but were still destitute - the silk reeling women were pale and thin, and they worked in the steam-filled 30-degree heat of the factory, their fingers scalded from boiling water, and they did not rest for a month; The construction workers, barefoot in broken shoes, covered from head to toe with paint and lime, worked for at least twelve hours a day, sometimes to fifteen hours, and lived the life of a slave prisoner, tired and irritable, some of whom were suffering from tuberculosis; The rickshaw drivers were covered in sweat and dust, their faces were black, and the bruises on their arms were protruding......

Unlike other workers, these drivers are not afraid of working too long hours, but rather too short working hours, because there are only 10,000 legal rickshaw licenses issued in Shanghai, but 40,000 rickshaw drivers have to pull carts to support their families. In order to rent a car from the car dealership, they have to say good things, find someone to guarantee it, give red envelopes to the managers of the car dealership, and even take the initiative to ask for their own share of the money increase. In order to maximize the use of the vehicle, the driver who finally rented the vehicle will sublease the vehicle to the second and third drivers, and pull the day by himself and the night by others, 24 hours a day, just like a Shanghai taxi in the 21st century...... In this way, if the time allocated to pull the cart by yourself is too short, then the family's livelihood will be lost

The other small number of tenants, who simply beg for a living, have more ragged clothes, puffy faces, loose skin, weakness, and a sour smell of rot, and stand on street corners every day with a group of children to ask for food, and are constantly on the lookout for police, bodyguards, and patrols...... In fact, those who can afford to live in a house are already considered to be the upper class of the beggars, and more little beggars can only sleep in bridges and holes and on the side of the road......

In the most dilapidated rooms of this alley, there were seven or eight sloppy women in shabby clothes and forced smiles, and they could have a merry night with them for a few copper dollars. Most of them are "eliminated goods" who have been kicked out of the Qinglou, generally less than 30 years old, with almost all the parts on their bodies, a few teeth have not been lost, and there are still some hairs on their heads, except for tumors, syphilis, pneumonia and tuberculosis, they have not suffered from any more diseases...... Some of them may have been famous in Shanghai, but now they are no longer as glamorous as they once were.

Despite their poor situation, they still have a rich entertainment life, such as smoking, drinking, cursing, praying, ...... As soon as the few children who sold their bodies in exchange arrived, they were replaced by them with bad wine, cigarettes and opium, and then in the smell of wine and smoke, they cursed God, cursed fate, and cursed negative men; At the same time, I pray that I will live a few more years and even give birth to a child that is not stillborn or teratogenic...... (To be continued......)
