Chapter 302: Dean of the Flying Dog
Qin Di and Yan Xue came to Kunming, saw Qin Yue and her two children, and then chatted with Wang Shu.
In the past few years, Qin Yue has been working as an associate professor at Southwest Associated University while continuing to write poetry, facing the bombing of the Japanese army, seeing that the majority of students are still studying unremittingly in an extremely difficult environment, and the spirit of being positive and enterprising, and reading for the rise of China, has moved her heart, and she has successfully published several poetry collections, making her "female poet of the Republic of China" a higher level.
Wang Shu also wrote many plays and became one of the famous playwrights of the Republic of China.
During the Anti-Japanese War, there were suddenly so many famous scholars, writers, poets, and professors in Kunming, including Chen Yinke, Feng Youlan, Wen Yiduo, Zhu Ziqing, Shen Congwen, Qian Mu, Wu Mi, Liu Wendian, Fu Sinian, and Pan Guangdan...... The Southwest Associated University has been in Kunming for eight years, and in these eight years, there have been unprecedented miracles in the history of education, democracy and cultural development in Kunming.
Qin Di and Yan Xue stayed in Kunming for three days, during which they saw the student movement "Down with Kong Xiangxi," and more than 2,000 students in the streets and alleys were full of grief and indignation, shouting slogans against corruption and resolutely resisting Japan.
Qin Di stood on the street, watching rows of students walk by, listening to their voices.
"An important member of the party-state is not as good as a dog of a thief!"
"Down with Kong Xiangxi, who transported foreign dogs by plane!"
"The thief does not die, and the corruption does not stop!"
"Hong Kong is in danger, the plane does not save people, but transports wolf dogs, Kong Xiangxi's crime is monstrous!"
"Down with Kong Xiangxi who manipulated prices! Down with Kong Xiangxi who manipulated foreign exchange! Down with Kong Xiangxi who made a fortune in the country......
So, how did this come about?
Qin Di looked through the recent newspapers and recalled the relevant records in history, and then he roughly understood this matter.
After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese launched a lightning attack on Hong Kong.
At that time, Hong Kong was a British colony, and many dignitaries of the Republic of China, including members of the Central Committee of the Qingbai Party, military and political officials, bankers, and cultural figures, such as Mrs. Song Sun, He Xiangning, Liu Yazi, Zou Taofen, Mao Dun, Chen Yinke, Chen Jitang, etc., all lived here. In order to prevent these people from becoming prisoners of the Japanese army, the Nationalist Government of Chongqing, at the request of all parties, dispatched additional flights to try to transport these dignitaries to the interior before the Japanese occupation. Since Hu Lin (Zhengzhi), the director of Ta Kung Pao, was also in Hong Kong, Wang Yunsheng, the editor-in-chief of Ta Kung Pao, asked Chen Bui, Mr. Qing's secretary, to get Chiang's consent to put Hu on the rescue list.
On 10 December, when the last plane to take off from Hong Kong arrived at Chongqing Airport, the editorial department of Ta Kung Pao sent people to the airport to greet its president.
The next day, the daily magazine "Xinmin Daily" published a live report written by Pu Xixiu, director of the interview department, with the title: "Waiting for the plane from outside the world to come, the number of foreign dogs drinking milk has increased by seven or eight", and two lines of text were mixed with four related news:
"In recent days, there have been many people waiting at the airport to watch the plane flying from the sky, and yesterday Mr. Wang Yunwu also greeted him three times and was disappointed three times. ”
"Yesterday, there were seven or eight more foreign dogs, which are foreign breeds that really drink milk. ”
Why is it so brief? The main reason is to evade the censorship of the Chongqing authorities, and it is a last resort.
Kunming's "Chao Pao" reprinted the editorial written by Wang Yunwu and changed the title to "From Xiuming Politics to Transporting Dogs by Airplanes," and the "foreign dog" incident became even more prominent.
Wu Han, who was teaching at Southwest Associated University at the time, said angrily in his first-year "General History of China" class: "When the Southern Song Dynasty fell to the country, there was a cricket prime minister, and today there is a flying dog dean, which can be compared." His words were like lighting a fire on a pile of dry wood, and students of different political leanings were mobilized to evolve into a student movement.
After the incident became a big problem, the government refuted the rumors, saying that the news that the plane was transporting foreign dogs was fake.
However, the people below do not believe it, whether it is true or not, which shows that the Qingbai Party is corrupt to a certain extent, and the national government lacks credibility.
Qin Di felt that this matter was normal, so he ignored it and left Kunming straight and went to Wuyi Dongtian.
It's another summer, and the sky in Wuyi Cave is very quiet, and the fruit trees outside the attic are once again full of fruit, making people forget all the troubles of the world.
The two of them practiced here in meditation, and it wasn't until three months later that their skills were each improved by one level, and then they walked out of the cave and returned to the Demon Capital.
At this time, the magic capital was still under the control of the Japanese army, some people had already fled, and some wanted to escape but couldn't.
For example, Qian Hongye, president of the Criminal Division of the Modu Court, and Yu Hua, president of the Jiangsu High School Second Criminal Court, faced the threat and temptation of the Japanese pseudo-government, adhered to the national integrity and were not subject to hypocrisy. First, Qian Hongye was brutally killed, and then, when Yu Hua was returning home in a rickshaw, he was also assassinated by the Japanese invaders near his residence on Shanzhong Road.
Yu Hua, the word Mantuo, is the brother of the writer Dr. Yu, after being killed, Dr. Yu wrote a couplet, the upper link is "the sky is thin Wang Lang, when the festival is poor, all parties are famous in the sea", and the lower link is "Qiankun helps righteousness, hurts the rainy night, so as to rely on blood debt to ask Liaodong". This couplet spoke highly of Yu Hua's unashamed law enforcement and sacrifice for the country, and at the same time poured out the poet's indignation at the invasion of the bandits and the shattering of mountains and rivers. Therefore, it is inspiring and recited for a while.
In this way, the Japanese army took control of the banks, the Ministry of Works, and the courts.
In order to control the media, as early as June 1938, after the outbreak of the Battle of Wuhan. The Ministry of Intelligence of the Japanese Cabinet invited Japanese writers to join the army, and it was against this background that the "pen unit" composed of famous Japanese writers was established. Japanese writers began to serve the Japanese army. Among them, the more famous are popular writers such as Masao Kume, Hiroshi Kikuchi, Haruo Sato, Shiro Ozaki and Takeshi Kimura. At the same time, the celebrities did not let the eyebrows be bearded, and the female writers Fumiko Hayashi and Nobuko Yoshiya also joined in successively.
In October 1940, on the basis of the "pen troops", the Japanese army set up the "Old Literature and Art Central Association". These literati vigorously advocated the "justice" of war, and competed to publish huge military records and field reports in magazines and newspapers, thus gaining great fame and remuneration.
After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese army entered the concession and completely controlled the newspapers and magazines in the magic capital, enslaving the Chinese people ideologically and culturally.
With the assistance of Wang's puppet regime, the Japanese army not only imposed strict household registration on Europeans and Americans, but also on the locals of the city, and even in the countryside on the outskirts of the city. Detailed statistics are provided on the locations of each sub-station of each regional police station, the distribution of the number of police officers, the appointment, dismissal, promotion, death, history, and economic profile of police officers. It also includes the survey and statistics of the occupation, place of origin, religion and nationality of citizens within the jurisdiction, as well as the nationality of overseas Chinese.
