Thinking of the investment and criticism in education over the years, Yang Zhen said with some emotion: "We have trained more than 70% of the current science and engineering college students in our country in a corner of the country. The entire science and engineering college students, including undergraduates and junior college students
Including, it is more than ten times the current number of students in Guannai University. How big is their territory and population, and how big is our area?"
"With limited fiscal revenue every year, the Northeast People's Government has never defaulted on a penny of education funding. It can be said that Northeast China is tightening its belt and cultivating talents for the whole country. The reason why we are doing so much now is
What? Isn’t it just so that what we suffer today will never happen again to our next generation?”
"The government has done so much and achieved something that no one in China has been able to do for thousands of years. Now it is just asking some students to temporarily give up what they like and use their knowledge to make some contributions to the development of this country.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this. To gain something, there must be sacrifice. Since they are in this era, they have no choice about this sacrifice.”
Looking at Yang Zhen talking eloquently in front of him, this man still couldn't figure out the identity of the young soldier in front of him. Yang Zhen was only wearing military casual clothes at this time and did not carry any signs such as military rank. Let him
I really can’t figure out what this person who has such a thorough grasp of the entire Northeastern government’s policies does.
He didn't know Yang Zhen's true identity, and he didn't know all the current education policies and regulations in the Northeast Liberated Areas, from the implementation of the nine-year compulsory education system to the planned overall distribution of high school graduates. From the establishment of various comprehensive universities and junior colleges,
The proportion of financial investment was all formulated and vigorously implemented by the soldier in front of him, who was only a few years older than him.
Yang Zhen's disadvantage lies in ensuring investment in education funds. At least in the Northeast, no one dares to touch it. Even though education funds and expenditures are rising every year, which has brought huge pressure to the Northeast Liberated Areas, in education
There was never a penny missing in investment.
If the promoter who is standing in front of him at this moment is not clear about these things, I am afraid no one can explain clearly. Northeast has invested so much in education and adopted such a policy, which seems a bit absurd to everyone.
It may even be the reason for some unkind ways of planning school.
When he asked about Yang Zhen's identity with doubts, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "You will know what I do specifically in the near future. It is not convenient to tell you now. If we know everything, we
But we won’t be able to talk so easily. Knowing too much about some things can only make us lose the original intention.”
"I believe that in the not-too-distant future, we will still have the opportunity to meet each other, and maybe we will have the opportunity to work together. By then, you will know who I am. As for now, I am you on this long journey.
I made a new friend accidentally."
Although Yang Zhen did not tell him his true identity, he was an open-minded person, so Yang Zhen kept silent after saying this. The two of them talked and laughed happily along the way, but the conversation was very intense. Until the train arrived at a hotel in the west of Harbin.
At the small station, the two men ended their conversation.
Considering the turmoil that happened when he got on the train, Yang Zhen decided not to get off the train at Harbin Station. By then, he was so upset that many people were probably going to point at his back and scold him. Maybe they saw his relatively young face.
, thinking that it is the second-generation official who is here to stage a show, which will affect the trend of people's hearts.
So when the train was about to arrive in Harbin, he asked someone to send a telegram to the military region headquarters and asked them to pick him up at a small station in the west of the city. As for the communication vehicles and other equipment that needed to be unloaded, all the passengers would get off when the train entered the terminal.
After taking the bus, transfer to Harbin Station freight yard to unload the vehicle.
When the train Yang Zhen took arrived at the actually abandoned station he had designated, Yuan Zhiruo was already waiting there with someone. After getting off the train, Yang Zhen did not delay and immediately asked someone to arrange a jeep to take the pair there.
The couples I met along the way were sent to where they wanted to go.
Seeing the couple leaving in the jeep, Yang Zhen turned to the staff officer beside him and said: "Tell the Political Department to send someone to the Liberation Daily to check on this person. If there are no problems with the political review, he will be transferred to the military region."
Headquarters work. Tell them that this person is what I want."
After Yang Zhen finished speaking, he watched the staff officer No. 1 having a lively chat with this person along the way, and wrote down the matter knowingly. After returning to the military region headquarters, he immediately reported it to the Political Department. Knowing that it was
The Political Department also acted very quickly on the candidate chosen by Yang Zhen. Together with the Ministry of Social Affairs and the Military Region Security Department, they investigated this person internally and externally in the shortest possible time.
A month later, this man, who was still unaware of a conversation on the train that had changed his destiny, received an order from the General Headquarters of the Anti-Japanese War. With all kinds of protests ineffective, he could only put on a military uniform and go to the military area.
Headquarters reported. After completing three months of study and confidentiality training, and taking over Yang Zhen’s secretary job, I discovered the true identity of the young man I was talking to at that time.
It was only then that he realized who Yang Zhen was. Although he was shocked, he finally had a good heart. Only then did he realize that he, who had just started working in a newspaper and had never had any interaction with the army,
How come I received an order to put on military uniform out of nowhere, but the order was that no bargaining was allowed?
Fortunately, this old man is also an open-minded person. Although he was very dissatisfied with being forced to wear a military uniform for no reason. However, he was happy to find that the person he was serving was someone whom he greatly admired but thought he had no chance to meet again.
When he took office, he was not the only one whose life was changed.
As Yang Zhen's secretary, he is also one of the people closest to Yang Zhen and holds a lot of core secrets. Security and confidentiality are also taken seriously. Naturally, his wife does not need to look for a job and is directly arranged.
After entering the Military Region Middle School, my family also moved into the dormitory of the Military Region Headquarters.
This former teacher and editor named Liu Hongbo, a former teacher of Tongliao Normal School, began to cooperate with Yang Zhen for more than ten years. He became the most satisfactory secretary among Yang Zhen's secretaries since Yuan Zhiruo was transferred.
Until the 1950s, Yang Zhen would not have been willing to let him go if he were not worried that he, who was only five years younger than him, would be too young after working beside him for more than ten years. If he continued to stay, his future would be affected.
people.
Although I was a little tired this time, I had a clear idea and determination not only on the Northeast battlefield but also on the next strategic direction. I also inadvertently picked up a qualified secretary for myself on the way.
It was beyond Yang Zhen's expectation.
However, life after returning to Harbin was just as Yang Zhen had expected. The heavy work after returning to Northeast China made it impossible for him to calm down and think about the problem. As soon as he returned to the military region headquarters, he had not had time to
Take a breath, your desk is already full of requests and reports.
Looking at the reports piled on the table, Yang Zhen shook his head, but he hoped that the suitable secretary candidate he picked up on the road would take office soon. If this continued like this, he would not have the energy to consider other issues. But Yang
Zhen also knew that the candidate he picked would have to wait at least for a while.
Without strict scrutiny by the Ministry of Social Affairs and the Ministry of Security, it is impossible for this person to work beside him, no matter whether he is in the picture. Not only will the Ministry of Social Affairs not agree, but he will not agree either. The staff around him are all in control.
There are a lot of core secrets. If an unreliable person is included, the joke will be big.
After hesitating for a moment, Yang Zhen picked up the file and started reading it. Fortunately, Yuan Zhiruo, who had just finished part of the work at hand, saw her husband shaking his head in front of the table full of files. After knowing that he was not satisfied with his transfer,
None of the secretaries he selected were very satisfied, so they didn't leave in a hurry and helped him sort out the documents.
The table was full of documents, and Yang Zhen kept looking at them until midnight before going through them all. After reading these documents, Yang Zhen's first consideration was to adjust the division of labor among his deputy commanders. There was no need to do this.
Big and small, everything is pushed to my side, and I won't be able to finish it even if I am exhausted.
I am a little overbearing at work. Oh, in the words of the director of the Political Department of the Military Region, I am a little too authoritarian. But I am not holding on to everything. There are at least three of these documents.
A few deputy commanders could handle a fraction of the items, so why are they all piled up here now?
Putting down the documents in his hands, Yang Zhen picked up the phone and wanted to find Guo Bingxun. But looking at the pointer on the watch, it was already pointing to two-thirty. After a moment of hesitation, he put the phone back. He rubbed the astringent feeling.
Yang Zhen looked at the green trees outside the window, then turned to look at his wife who had fallen asleep on the sofa, and finally shook his head.
That night, Yang Zhen and Yuan Zhiruo did not return to their little nests, so they slept in the office all night. Early the next morning, before Yang Zhen could go to find Guo Bingxun, Guo Bingxun himself came. Seeing Yang Zhen who looked very tired, Guo Bingxun
He opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then swallowed the words in his mouth.
Looking at Guo Bingxun who was a little hesitant, Yang Zhen frowned and said: "Old Guo, if you have anything to say, just say it. There is nothing else that can't be said between the two of us. It just so happens that if you don't come to me, I'll still
I have to go to you. As for the next step of strategic considerations, I think we still need to study it."
After Yang Zhen's words fell, Guo Bingxun thought for a moment and finally said: "Old Yang, there is one thing. Don't get excited after hearing this. Lao Peng died of illness in the Military Region General Hospital last month. Because the war was going on at the time, considering
Despite the pressure you are under, Political Commissar Li has decided not to notify you of this matter for the time being."
"The reason that led to Lao Peng's untimely death was the internal injuries he suffered while being tortured in the Puppet Manchukuo Prison. In the past few years in the United States, although several doctors were invited to treat him, Lao Peng's injuries were too serious. In addition,
He never received effective treatment at the Japanese bacterial warfare base or after the breakout. In fact, after arriving in the United States, he was basically helpless."
"In addition, Lao Peng was reluctant to use the allocated funds for treatment, and he was reluctant to take some nutritional supplements in the United States, even a pill, which also affected his treatment. He used the funds allocated to him by the headquarters for treatment and nutrition
With the expense, we bought some scientific and technical books and periodicals and experimental equipment and transported them back to Northeast China."
"The reason why Lao Peng came back from the United States this time was to die in his own country. In fact, when he returned to China, he was already dying. It was only because of the tone of his heart that he insisted on returning to Northern Manchuria.
After barely holding on to Harbin, I fell into a coma."
"I originally thought he could survive until you came back after the war, but despite the doctors' best efforts, he still couldn't control the massive bleeding in his stomach. It's a pity that when Lao Peng left, even though I was in the Northeast, I didn't have time to send him to the hospital.
His last journey. We were the only two of us who were comrades in the same cell."
