Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 332 Walking on Three Legs

When parting, Mr. Ji repeatedly assured that he would prepare teachers as soon as possible, and the textbooks used would be compiled as soon as possible.

On the way back, Zhao Gang walked ahead with his head muffled, his expression a little downcast, and Zhou Weihan was a little surprised to see Zhao Gang's expression.

After repeated questioning, Zhao just confided his true thoughts: "I think back when we were studying in Beiping, although the outside of the pass was occupied by the Japanese army at that time, the interior of the pass generally maintained normal stability. There is still an opportunity to study!"

"Nowadays, a large area of ​​land is occupied by the Japanese army. The Japanese opened schools, wantonly distorted our Chinese culture, and tried to control the next generation ideologically. At this time, we should stand up on the issue of education. I, the political commissar, failed in my duty before. , I didn’t consider it thoroughly!” Zhao Gang said with self-blame.

In less than three years from the second half of 1937 to 1940, Japan opened more than 180 Japanese language schools in the enemy-occupied areas of China. The ideology, religious beliefs, cultural facilities, language and literature of the Chinese people are imposed on the Chinese.

In the three northeastern provinces that were occupied earlier, elementary and middle school students from all over the country had to call themselves by their Japanese names when they went to school every day, and they even saluted the Japanese flag before class, so they were forced to learn Japanese and learn Japanese.

In order to beautify the aggression of Japan, the "East Asian Alliance Theory" and the "Global Circle Theory" and other theories of aggression were developed, the "September [-]th Incident" in Chinese textbooks was deleted, and schools in occupied areas were prohibited from teaching Chinese history. Sino-Japanese goodwill", "East Asia common prosperity" and other enslaving content.

The Japanese army forced school staff to learn Japanese, which was used as the main assessment content for promotion and salary increase. Japanese has become a compulsory course for students' exams. Anyone who fails the Japanese exam will not be able to upgrade or graduate. Even music classes must sing Japanese songs. Assassination, arrest, and torture were carried out on intellectuals who resisted the Japanese invasion of China.

All of the above all reflect the cultural invasion of the Japanese and the enslavement education carried out on the next generation.

"Old Zhao, I agree with what you said. On the issue of education for the people behind the enemy lines, we Communists do have the responsibility to allow them to continue their education, but don't forget that the Tainan base has only been established for less than a year. In one year, you have only been a political commissar in the independent detachment for half a year, and some things are not not to be done, but to be freed up to do after you have stabilized yourself!"

"Now is the right time. There are people, money, and charisma. We will start a few pilot projects in Wuyi and Wu'an counties, and then gradually promote them!"

"If it is completed, our Tainan base will walk on three legs. One is that the Tainan Cadre School will continuously train reserve cadres. The other is to continue to promote cultural education in the army so that soldiers can also have the opportunity to receive education. The third Promote education to the masses in the vast base areas, and once the implementation is successful, more educated and educated young people will join our anti-Japanese ranks in the future!"

Zhou Weihan's remarks finally cheered up Zhao Gang. Sometimes Zhou Weihan couldn't figure out whether he was the political commissar or Zhao Gang was the political commissar.

"I'll handle this matter myself. As you said, let's do a few trials first and see how it works?" Zhao Gang said.

That night, after receiving the order, Li Daben and He Wensheng came to Yanwang Mountain one after another.

Zhao Gang personally assigned two tasks for him. Regarding the students of the Tainan Cadre School, the garrison team was responsible for finding suitable students in Wuyi and Wu'an counties.

The Enemy Engineering Department is responsible for recruiting students in the enemy-occupied areas, and the area is not restricted, as long as they meet the requirements.

"The identity is not restricted?" He Wensheng asked hesitantly.

"As long as it supports the Anti-Japanese National United Front, no matter what its composition is!" Zhao Gang said.

"Let me add one more thing, don't forget what your enemy engineering department does. There is still a review that should be done. Don't recruit two spies for me. Isn't that a joke? Don't make a big fuss when selecting personnel. Do it in secret!" Zhou Weihan instructed.

"Detachment leader, don't worry, I understand the process, and I will check it carefully before bringing it back to the base!" He Wensheng said.

In comparison, it is much easier for Li Daben to recruit students in the base area.

But He Wensheng's potential here will be even greater. After all, the area it faces is wider. There are enemy engineering intelligence stations in southeastern Shanxi, western Shanxi, western Hebei, and southern Hebei.

Before leaving, Li Daben asked again: "Detachment Captain, when will the political commissar of our garrison be in place? I have been waiting for a long time?"

"Hurry up, I'll remember this!" Zhou Weihan coaxed Li Daben away.

After Li Daben left, Zhou Weihan explained: "There is no political commissar in the garrison now, have you forgotten?"

"It's time to choose a political commissar for the garrison regiment, but this person?" Of course Zhao Gang didn't forget this, but there was no suitable candidate.

In the final analysis, the independent detachment has developed too fast, and its foundation is still weak in terms of cadre reserves.

Zhou Weihan had long wanted to arrange a political commissar for the garrison, but to put it bluntly, there was still no one.

It stands to reason that suitable candidates should be selected from the political department or the staff office, but most of these officers are young people who have just graduated from the Anti-Japanese University and have not worked for a long time. The experienced cadres are all serving as the backbone of the lower regiments.

"What's your opinion?" Zhao Gang asked.

"What's my opinion? You are the political commissar, this is your job, you ask me?"

"I'm just asking for everyone's opinions. Be more democratic. You don't want to drag it down!" Zhao Gang said angrily.

"I said it's not enough. Either choose one of the instructors of the regiments below, or ask for someone from the superior. Anyway, don't choose someone from the Political Department or the Staff Office. They are too young to restrain the veterans of the garrison regiment. Son!" Zhou Weihan suggested.

"Yes, this political commissar needs to be selected competently. It won't take long. Once the political work is done, the garrison regiment will become a main force regiment. I'm thinking about it!"

"I'm going to say a little bit more. If you want to select people from the lower regiments, you should choose from the first regiment. The first regiment has always been the big brother in each regiment, with old qualifications and many military exploits. Pick a political commissar with a tough style and principles. , It’s also good to kill the crooked tendencies of the garrison regiment who don’t obey the discipline!”

Although Zhou Weihan said earlier that it was none of his business, he still cared about the selection of the political commissar of the garrison regiment.

"Elect from the first group, and I can't hide my face from the important people at the higher level. Tomorrow, I will transfer the files of the Political Department, and then talk to them!" Zhao Gang said.

It was night, Zhou Weihan was lying on the kang, his mind full of thoughts.

On the one hand, he was thinking about the land reform in various places, and on the other hand, he was thinking about the cadre school.

Lying on the kang, tossing and turning, it took a long time to fall asleep.
