Seven

The conversation was conducted individually. First, Yang Tinghui talked with Liang Daya-Liang Bida, and Wang Lantian talked with Dongfang Wenyin.

In doing so, the conversation seemed unusually important and mysterious. Of course, what is important and mysterious is only the conversation between Yang Tinghui and Liang Bida, which lasted for three hours, and no one knows the content of this conversation.

Wang Lantian's conversation with Dongfang Wenyin was very relaxed, like an elder visiting the younger students, and like a learning exchange between teachers and students. Wang Lantian first fully affirmed the progress of Dongfang Wenyin, and then asked with great concern: "What books have you read recently?" ”

Dongfang Wenyin replied: "In addition to studying "On Protracted War", I also read some idle books, such as "Poetry and Rhyme Collection" and "Idle Love and Occasional Mail". ”

Wang Lantian said quite unexpectedly: "These two books are about literature and art, and Comrade Dongfang is not interested in this?" ”

Dongfang Wenyin smiled embarrassedly and said: "That's not necessarily, it's just that I went to Bump Mountain, and I was in a hurry, and many books were lost, and only a few were left." There is also an Englishman's "Shakespeare's Sonnets", which I occasionally flip through in my spare time, but I don't know very much, but I think the fun is very different. The chief has profound attainments in Chinese studies, please give me advice. ”

Wang Lantian said: "I don't dare to teach well, I was originally a teacher, but I also have some experience. I thought that although "Poetry and Rhyme Collection" is only rhyme, the word 'rhyme' has a deep emphasis. It is also a rhyme, although some are neat but do not see spirituality, some can see spirituality but do not see the realm, and some have spirituality and realm, but there is less beauty. Clever hands rhyme Samadhi, often rhyme outside the rhyme, see the sound and see the god. The rhyme foot is like a mountain, the god is like water, the water does not exist without a mountain, and the mountain does not show without water. Chinese characters are different from Western characters, which are words, and there is no soul in them. Chinese characters themselves are entangled with history. It can even be said that Chinese characters are another vein of Chinese history, so there are many meanings in the form, and the situation is implied between the strokes. Why is it said that Chinese poems are not easy to compose, they are not good to be good when they are written, and they are even more difficult to translate. It is difficult for Westerners to appreciate the beauty of Chinese poetry. On the other hand, the Western poems we read have been translated, which is bound to be greatly discounted. Poetry is different from novels, and the story may be translated into a general meaning, but the realm cannot be reproduced. Reading Western poetry without knowing Western language is actually a thankless and absurd task. I advise you to read less Westerner poetry, just a book of "Poetry and Rhyme Collection", just rhyme and see poetry, it is broad and profound. If you go back and look for the poem in the words, maybe there will be new wonders. ”

Dongfang was also surprised and delighted when he heard the sound like an initiation, and couldn't help but call out to Mr. and said, "Listening to Mr. Listen, I really feel like I'm suddenly open." It is the first time I have heard Mr.'s exposition of the difference between Chinese and Western words, and it is indeed refreshing. ”

Wang Lantian smiled and said: "Comrade Dongfang is praising me, I am just saying that this is a family. I'm a teacher, so I'm still a good teacher when I don't teach, isn't it an addiction? After speaking, he changed the topic, patted the pistol on his waist, and pointed to the pistol on Dongfang Wenyin's waist and said: "Look, people say that two Wu Song talk about tigers, two butchers talk about pigs, and we two people who carry guns are actually talking about books here, which really means a little otherworldly." Don't you say? ”

Dongfang Wenyin also smiled and said: "It's really rare to have this kind of leisure, sir's lesson is enough for me to think about it for a while." ”

Wang Lantian said: "Okay, the first class is over, let's start the second class now, but you and I will change positions in this class." You are a gentleman, I am a student. ”

Dongfang Wenyin immediately blushed and said, "The chief scared me, how can I be a gentleman for the chief with this foundation?" ”

Wang Lantian said: "I'm not asking you to talk about poetry, you can tell me your views on this change of leadership in the division, especially for Liang Da...... Comrade Liang Bida's view as commander of the division. ”

Dongfang Wenyin was slightly stunned: "...... I really haven't thought about this question in depth. A game of chess from the superiors is not something that we mortals can see with the naked eye. ”

Wang Lantian smiled, smiling meaningfully: "You Nizi, you have also begun to have a city." It's okay to avoid committing liberalism. So, you can talk about your views on Comrade Liang Daya. ”

Dongfang Wenyin thought for a while, raised his head and said, "Generally speaking, Liang Daya-Liang Bida is a good person. ”

Wang Lantian said: "What is this? Of course, Liang Daya is a good person, otherwise how could he be made a division commander. Liang Daya is not only a good person, but also an outstanding good person. ”

Dongfang pursed his lips and smiled when he heard the sound and said, "I mean Liang...... Comrade Bida has made rapid progress. In fact, Liang Bida is a very thoughtful person, his brain is not stupid, and he is also very good at thinking things. From a combat point of view, the county captain has become more mature, but now that he is going to be the commander of the division, I am still a little worried about his organizational skills, especially the issue of unity. ”

Wang Lantian said: "By the way, this is also the most uneasy place for me and Lao Yang. In order to solve this problem, it can be said that we have thought of everything and done everything we can. In addition, we also want to ...... for Liang You see, this name is still not as smooth as Liang Daya - we also want to have a reliable assistant for Comrade Liang Bida, work by his side, and come up with an idea to wake up at an important moment. This comrade should be in a more appropriate position, able to have frequent contact with Comrade Liang Bida, and also be able to keep a close grasp of the troops. ”

Dongfang Wenyin was a little nervous, she was worried that this time she would let her "stabilize" Liang Bida like she did last time she went to Chenbu County. But when I thought about it, I didn't think so. The last time she was sent, it was a special choice under special conditions, and at that time it was because she was not at ease with Liang Daya, but this time she really wanted to protect Liang Bida. When she first arrived in Chenbu County, she felt like a hostage pinched in Liang Daya's hands, and now this person is undoubtedly Liang Bida's actual military advisor. At that time, at this time, it was already completely two natures.

Dongfang Wenyin smiled and asked, "Such an important task, should it be handed over to me?" ”

Wang Lantian looked at Dongfang and Wenyin, and asked quietly, "Why not?" ”

Dongfang Wenyin said confidently: "Liang Daya is already Liang Bida, but Dongfang Wenyin is still Dongfang Wenyin, this is the reason why it will not be." ”

Wang Lantian was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "Okay, good answer." And he said, "You are right." This time, it is necessary to find a military cadre who is both strong in both military and political affairs, and to serve as the deputy chief of staff of the sub-district and the head of the independent regiment. Do you think Zhu Pre-Dao is suitable? ”

Dongfang Wenyin replied without thinking: "Not suitable." ”

Wang Lantian seemed a little surprised, glanced at Dongfang Wenyin very carefully, and asked for a long time, "Why?" ”

Dongfang Wenyin said: "First, our Bump Mountain base area is not a piece of pure land, ideological struggle has always existed, in the past it has always been said that there is sectarianism, Zhu Zhudao is the most effective cadre used by Liang Bida, if the tide rises this time, it is not sectarianism but sectarianism." Second, the independent regiment is the only main force of the division, and if Zhu Zhudao is allowed to serve as the regiment commander, Deputy Commander Dou will feel even more pressure, which is not conducive to unity. Third, Liang Bida's leap from captain to commander of a division was too quick and his ideological preparation was not sufficient, and this was also the time to cultivate his political quality. ”

When Wang Lantian heard this, he couldn't help but praise the case: "Okay, good." Our little Dongfang has really grown up, matured, and has vision. It's really a time to create heroes. ”

Dongfang Wenyin said: "What kind of hero am I? I didn't learn it from you. ”

Wang Lantian was excited, stood up and continued: "I will also tell you the truth, now that the international anti-fascist struggle has won a decisive victory, and the situation on the domestic battlefield has also changed greatly. The Bump Hill subdivision will be the focus of our next step. This change in the leadership of the division is very crucial. You're also going back and being the deputy head of the Political Department. The Bump Mountain Sub-district will also form an independent second regiment, with Song Shangda as the head of the regiment, and you will also serve as the political commissar of the independent second regiment. ”

Dongfang was surprised when he heard the sound: "I...... All right? ”

Wang Lantian smiled but did not speak.

"But, I ...... I still don't think I can do it. ”

"Why not? Even from the beginning to the end, you are also a seven-year old Eighth Road, and if you count the time you participated in activities at school, you can be regarded as eight years of participating in the revolution. Don't be afraid, you're not a little girl anymore and you have practical work experience. As long as you are willing to study and dare to throw yourself down to grasp the work, there is nothing that cannot be done. Look at Liang Daya...... How did Liang Bida grow up? Role models are all around you, why can't you? ”

Dongfang Wenyin was still silent. She felt that there was a difference between handing out leaflets on the streets at that time and now serving as the political commissar of a regiment and leading the ideological and political work of the soldiers of the 808th Route Army. At that time, he was young, only thirteen or fourteen years old, and it can be said that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. But now, it is a regular field regiment, no better than a guerrilla, no better than living under Liang Bida's armpit, that is to be alone, can she do it?

Wang Lantian was obviously excited, and entered the state of a professional ideological and political worker: "The vicissitudes of the sea are crossing, and the true colors of heroes can be seen." If your blood is not sprinkled on the road of youth, when will you stay? At that time, did you ever think about what would happen if you were captured by the enemy? Surely you have thought about it. But you did not waver, you did not suffer from gains and losses, this is the brave spirit of a revolutionary. It is this fearless spirit that leads you to a more brutal struggle and leads you into the Bump Mountain without hesitation. Practice has proved that you are an excellent political worker. Your maturity gives us comfort and gives us a glimpse of the hope that the younger generation has given us. You don't and shouldn't show signs of backing, you can't have any other choice. You should take a new posture, bravely rush to the forefront of the struggle, and accept the gifts and tests that the times have given you. ”

Wang Lantian said it so impassionedly that even Dongfang Wenyin himself couldn't help but have a new understanding of himself. Yes, when I was a student at school, I braved the white terror to distribute leaflets, which did show a lot of courage. Of course, I was still afraid, but I didn't back down. Now that we have been trained for seven or eight years, we can only be more courageous in terms of reason, and there seems to be no reason to look ahead and look ahead. Thinking of this, Dongfang Wenyin clapped his head and said to Wang Lantian: "I accept the arrangement of my superiors. ”

Wang Lantian said: "This is the correct attitude of a political work cadre. After a pause, he said: "At present, I will read less of those idle books and read more of "Strategic Problems of the Chinese Revolutionary War" and "On Correcting Erroneous Thinking in the Party." Of course, don't throw those books away, keep them, and read them when the war is over. ”
