Chapter 633: Culture

The next day, Zhang Chi flew to Changchun with Wang Mazi. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This can be regarded as an inspection of the Northeast by the commander and deputy commander of the expeditionary force, and it can also be a wish for Wang Mazi to return to his homeland.

Of course, the latter will be more important, as for the former...... Everything in the Northeast is going on in an orderly manner, and Wang Mazi's inspection will not play much role to be honest.

As soon as he got off the plane, Wang Mazi's footsteps became heavy.

He walked slowly on the snow for a few steps, looked around the empty area, and sighed: "This is the Northeast, finally back!" ”

Zhang Chi can understand Wang Mazi's mood at this time, the "Northeast" he said in his words is more suitable for its practical "China", because for Wang Mazi, it means...... After so many years, I finally set foot on my own land again.

"Salute!" The two columns of soldiers at the airport saluted.

Li Huakun greeted him with his adjutant, and saluted Wang Mazi and Zhang Chi respectively: "Commander, deputy commander!" ”

"Hmm!" Wang Mazi nodded and looked at Li Huakun a few times.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, Wang Mazi had been stationed in Rabaul for a long time, and he was not familiar with the officers outside the new first division.

"Oh, this is Li Huakun, the commander of the 50th Division!" Zhang Chi introduced, and at the same time added a sentence at the end: "My own people!" ”

"Oh! Master Li! Wang Mazi shook hands with Li Huakun at this time.

Wang Mazi has always been jealous of President Jiang's ears and eyes in his heart, especially when he set foot on Chinese soil at this time, and there are many Jiang troops stationed in the northeast...... Even if most of these Jiang troops were subdued by Zhang Chi, Wang Mazi's psychological pressure could not be eliminated at once.

On the way back, Li Huakun, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, turned around and said to Zhang Chi: "Deputy commander, you can be regarded as back, you have annoyed me to death during this time!" ”

"What's the matter?" Zhang Chi asked, and at the same time, he took it for granted in his mind that it was the Jiang troops that caused Li Huakun some problems.

But Zhang Chi guessed wrong.

"It's a matter of recruiting talents!" Li Huakun shook his head and replied.

"What's the trouble with sourcing talent?" Zhang Chi asked, "Is there not enough funds?" ”

Funding will indeed be a problem, the Yankees do not say that they will give as much as they want, they will only give war materials, about the development of the Northeast...... I have to solve it myself.

The Japanese army had previously looted the Northeast so much that even the copper nails of the city gate had to be dismantled to make bullets and shells, so it really couldn't make much money for a while.

But Zhang Chi guessed wrong.

"It's not that there is a lack of funds!" Li Huakun said: "Those talents are ...... I don't know how to deal with them all day long! ”

"Oh, they're still here to pick on the thorns?" Zhang Chi couldn't help laughing: "What kind of talents are you recruiting?" ”

"Didn't you mean returnees?" Li Huakun replied: "There are really a lot, I came back from studying in Japan, and I came back from studying in the United States...... More than 300 people have been invited during this time! And there are other ...... That's a thousand! ”

"There are so many?" Hearing this, Zhang Chi couldn't help but be taken aback.

Later, Zhang Chi learned that not all of these "returnees" were from the Northeast...... After hearing that the expeditionary force had recovered the three northeastern provinces, the patriotic youths in the Japanese-occupied areas and even in Chiang Kai-shek's sphere of influence tried their best to use their resources to go to the northeast to join the expeditionary force.

That's one of the benefits of winning battles...... Winning the battle made the people see hope in the darkness, and it also had a siphon effect on talents.

Zhang Chi wanted to know what these people were against, and Wang Mazi came here to inspect just to walk, so the first step was to meet these people.

The meeting place was arranged in a conference room.

Of course, Zhang Chi could not meet with more than 1,000 people at a time, so Li Huakun called more than a dozen delegates to attend the meeting.

"Commander, Deputy Commander!" More than a dozen people attending the meeting paid tribute to Zhang Chi and Wang Mazi one by one.

Zhang Chi got straight to the point and asked, "I heard that you have an opinion on our policy in the Northeast?" ”

"That's right!" A young man in a long shirt and a top hat stood up.

Li Huakun introduced: "This is Liu Zhenguo, who returned from studying in Japan!" ”

"Deputy Commander!" Liu Zhenguo took off his top hat and bent down at Zhang Chi, and then Shi Shiran said: "We don't agree with the most...... It's a matter of education! ”

"Is there anything wrong with education?" Zhang Chi was a little puzzled.

Since the abolition of the Japanese textbooks, they have been replaced with the previous Chinese textbooks, and Zhang Chi also looked at it a little and didn't think there was any problem.

"Deputy Commander!" Liu Zhenguo said: "I don't know if you realize that these textbooks are outdated? They can even make the people of the country diswilled, confused, and unable to distinguish between right and wrong......"

"Wait!" Zhang Chi interrupted Liu Zhenguo's words and said: "Teaching materials make people's thoughts blurred and can't distinguish right from wrong? What exactly are you referring to? ”

"For example, the Analects!" Liu Zhenguo replied: "To be exact, Chinese books are not to be learned!" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Chi can be regarded as hearing a little bit of Liu Zhenguo's meaning......

"You mean...... Chinese books are useless? ”

"It's not just Chinese books!" Another stood up: "It should be said that it is Chinese culture!" ”

"Yes!" Another stood up and said, "It is Chinese culture that makes us so weak, and even more, we should abolish Chinese characters!" ”

"So......" Zhang Chi looked at these people with some incredulity: "What do you think should be done?" ”

"Use foreign textbooks as teaching materials!" Liu Zhenguo said: "I think it's good to import teaching materials from the United States! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Chi was a little confused.

Only later did Zhang Chi find out about ...... It's something I know too little about.

In fact, during the period from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, Chinese young people have been trying to find the original sin of China's defeat in the midst of aggression and continuous defeat......

At first, I thought that "the instrument is inferior to the people", so there was a Westernization movement to establish the Beiyang Naval Division.

However, the Beiyang Naval Division looked strong, but it was completely annihilated by the Japanese Navy in a few clicks.

The patriotic youths carefully analyzed the reasons for the failure, and then they thought that "the system is inferior to others...... That is, the system of the Qing Dynasty was not good, so there was the Kang Liang reform.

With the failure of Kang Liang's reform, patriotic young people thought that "culture is inferior to people...... They are radical in their belief that it is because of the etiquette, benevolence and righteousness propagated in Chinese culture that China has become an unarmed sheep to be armed, so they put forward the idea of "overthrowing the Confucian family" or even "abolishing Chinese characters" to learn Western culture in its entirety.

Those who have similar ideas even include Chen Duxiu and Lu Xun.
