In the early morning, the sun shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves of the trees and shines into the window of Liu Yimin's office at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army Instruction Division in Dadian, casting mottled light and shadow on the young general who is immersed in work at his desk.
After the victory of the counterattack in the eastern section of Longhai Road, Liu Yimin left Hong Chaoyuan to unified command the Sixth Teaching Brigade, the New Sixth Brigade, and the Southeast Shandong Detachment to take charge of the southern Shandong war. He and Luo Ronghuan led the division, the First Teaching Brigade, the New First Brigade, and the Cavalry Brigade.
The artillery brigade and air defense brigade returned to the hinterland of the southeastern Shandong base area and Taiyi central base area for rest.
On the way back, Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan rode side by side, walking at a leisurely pace, walking and looking all the way, checking the construction situation in the southeastern Shandong base area in detail. By the time they returned to Dadian, it was already late August.
When Liu Yimin returned to the store, he had no time to rest and had too many things waiting to be decided. Early in the morning, he got up, washed his face and brushed his teeth, and then started working.
What Liu Yimin was looking at were several reports sent by the Shandong Provincial Anti-Japanese Democratic Council. There were reports on the progress of the preparations for the establishment of Shandong University, reports on the construction of road and bridge facilities in the southeastern Shandong and Taiyi central base areas, and the implementation of the "Three Three" in the construction of the base areas.
Reports on the status of the "Three Systems" principle, reports on the construction of primary and secondary schools in the base area, reports on medical issues, etc.
Liu Yimin picked up a report on the construction of Shandong University. The report said that since Comrade Liu Yimin put forward the request to build Shandong University, the Shandong Anti-Japanese Democratic Council immediately dispatched personnel to organize the preparations. So far, the preparations for the construction of Shandong University have been progressing smoothly.
Recruit former Shandong University
Some of the faculty and staff of the former Peking University, the former Tsinghua University, and the former Nankai University who did not have time to move south have basically established the structure of each department and are ready to start recruiting students. Now we need to make decisions on several issues: First, select the school site
, it is recommended that the school be temporarily located in the county seat of Juxian County and the teaching area be located in the old county government office of Juxian County.
, Confucian Temple, teacher and student dormitories were requisitioned from some private houses. The second was to select a president. In view of the fact that Shandong University is the first comprehensive university founded by our party and our army and has great influence, it needs well-known people at home and abroad to serve as president. It was suggested that Liu Yimin
Comrade concurrently serves as the president of Shandong University. The third is to determine the professional settings of departments
, based on the existing teaching staff, it is planned to set up the Department of Mathematics, the Department of Physics, the Department of Chemistry, and the Department of Chinese Studies. The fourth is to determine the opening time, and it is planned to start after the autumn harvest every year. The fifth is to increase teaching funds, and it is planned to allocate 1 million yuan each year, mainly for
In order to pay teachers’ salaries and purchase teaching equipment, all meals and accommodation are provided.
These problems of Shandong University must be solved immediately. Luo Ronghuan also told Liu Yimin on the way back to Dadian.
After reading the report, Liu Yimin raised his head and called Li Xiaoshuai to come in and ask Comrade Li Yu to come over. He had something to discuss with him.
After shouting, a report sounded at the door. Liu Yimin said to come in. Who knew that the person who came in was Hu Changbao, the chairman's old guard who had followed him to Shandong from Xi'an. Only then did he remember that Li Xiaoshuai was still lying in the hospital, and Huang Wenhu was taken over again.
He stayed in Hongze Lake and became the director of the Hongze Lake Management Bureau. This Hu Changbao may have graduated from the first branch of the Anti-Japanese University and returned to the security corps.
Seeing Hu Changbao, the scene of Li Chengyi's sacrifice on Hanxin Ridge appeared in Liu Yimin's mind. It seemed that Li Chengyi got up from the pool of blood and walked towards him, grinning innocently, still looking like he was letting Liu Yimin criticize him.
All smiling.
Liu Yimin almost yelled out the words "Li Chengyi", but his mind suddenly became excited and he realized that he was dazzled. He quickly shook his head to clear his mind for a while.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she shook her head, Jingjing's pretty face that was both happy and angry appeared in her mind again, as if Jingjing was still saying "you are a fool"! In a moment, the sky was filled with artillery fire, and Jingjing ran to rescue the fallen horse.
Huang Wei, a bomb exploded beside her, Jingjing fell softly to the ground, and the scene of her last look at him appeared again.
Liu Yimin knew that he was distracted. It was early in the morning, not when he was dreaming at night. Why did he suddenly think of Li Chengyi and Jingjing? He shook his head vigorously, trying to clear his mind. Who knew that the nine soldiers of the second company of the guard were alive?
The sight of crying loudly and the bodies of the martyrs on the ground flooded into my mind again, and I couldn't get rid of it.
Liu Yimin sighed, stood up, rubbed his temples vigorously, and then said to Hu Changbao: "Go and ask Xiaoman to come over and ask her to bring the guzheng. I want to listen. Then go and ask Comrade Li Yu."
Hu Changbao saluted and walked out quickly. Liu Yimin turned around and sat on a chair, closed his eyes, and calmed down, trying to calm down. Unexpectedly, he couldn't calm down. Huang Su, Li Yimo, Li Donghai, Guo Zheng, Chen Yaoguang, etc.
The images of the martyrs in the rows came to Liu Yimin's mind, and they kept flashing in Liu Yimin's mind like a movie.
Liu Yimin simply relaxed his mind and quietly recalled the familiar faces.
When Zhao Xiaoman came in holding the guzheng, he saw Liu Yimin sitting on a chair with his eyes closed, looking like he was sleepwalking. He quickly put the guzheng on a table aside, pulled up a chair and sat down, playing the ding-ding-dong-dong.
Got up.
High mountains and flowing water, flat sand and falling geese, spring river with flowers and moonlit night, after finishing three consecutive songs, Liu Yimin opened his eyes, glanced at Zhao Xiaoman and Luo Ronghuan who came in after hearing the sound of the guzheng, and then said: "Thank you, Xiaoman.
No need to play anymore!”
Luo Ronghuan stepped forward, reached out and touched Liu Yimin's forehead, and said, "Go to the field hospital and check to see if there is anything wrong."
Liu Yimin smiled bitterly: "It's nothing. When I saw Hu Changbao, I thought of Li Chengyi. I couldn't control my thoughts when I was excited. Alas, in the blink of an eye, life and death are separated, every inch of mountains and rivers, every inch of blood! By the way, political commissar, when conditions permit in the future,
The bodies of Li Chengyi and others must be transported back to Shandong for reburial. Also, have you sent anyone to Jinan to investigate? I don’t know if Huang Su’s cemetery was damaged by the Japanese army?”
Luo Ronghuan said that he had sent people to Jinan to see it. The Jinan Security Brigade had disguised itself in advance, removed the stele tower, and hid the tombstone. The Japanese might not have found it, so they did not destroy it.
After hearing this, Liu Yimin thought for a while and said: "Our army will not capture Jinan for the time being. We can only work hard on disguise and secrecy. We must not let the Japanese and puppet troops find the martyrs' graves and destroy them. Otherwise, we will be ashamed of the martyrs."
.”
When Luo Ronghuan saw Liu Yimin recently, he always felt distressed. Because ever since he saw Liu Yimin in Anti-Japanese Mountain, Liu Yimin has not had a smile on his face. It seems that the high-spirited Liu Yimin of the past has disappeared and has been replaced by Liu Yimin.
He is a resolute, cold, and unfathomable Liu Yimin.
Luo Ronghuan told Liu Yimin that he did not need to consider these matters, and that he should quickly concentrate on thinking about major issues in the construction of the base area and combat issues, and that he had to find a way to understand the movements of the Japs. The chairman was still pressing the question of when Qingdao would be captured.
When Li Yu came, he saw the division commander and the political commissar was talking but did not interrupt. After Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan finished speaking, Li Yu took a step forward, shook hands with Liu Yimin and said hello.
Liu Yimin had not seen Li Yu since he went south after the Taixi Campaign. When meeting comrades-in-arms, he was particularly cordial. Liu Yimin shook Li Yu's hand vigorously, briefly asked about the situation after farewell, and then asked how Hong Tao was doing.
, has it been restored?
Liu Yimin asked Li Yu because he originally appointed Li Yu to take care of Hong Tao.
Li Yu's eyes dimmed, she looked at Luo Ronghuan, and then reported that Hong Tao had been dead for two months.
Liu Yimin stared at Li Yu with shocked eyes and was speechless for a long time.
Luo Ronghuan explained that Hong Tao became ill due to overwork. Although the field hospital successfully performed an operation on him and removed the shrapnel, Hong Tao's body was already failing and he still died after recuperating for so long. At that time, he should have reported to the division commander, but
Considering that the teacher was far away from the northeast of Anhui Province, and knowing that his disciples were more sentimental, they did not report it.
After Liu Yimin came to his senses, he did not blame Luo Ronghuan and Li Yu. He walked to the window, took off his military cap, and stared silently into the distance for a while, then turned around and said: "Hong Tao is one of the main organizers of the Culaishan Uprising.
, was the former commander of the fourth detachment and political commissar of the Tai'an detachment. He fought against the revolution and resisted
He had made great contributions to the war. I thought I could return to work as soon as possible through treatment, but I didn't expect that he died young in the end. I want to publicize Comrade Hong Tao's achievements to the outside world, and the commemoration specifications are the same as those of Li Yimo. I will go to Comrade Hong Tao's cemetery to pay homage and plant trees later.
, I also need to write an article to commemorate it.”
Li Yu and Hong Tao had worked together for a long time. When Hong Tao passed away, since Liu Yimin was not in Shandong, the funeral arrangements were relatively simple. Hearing what Liu Yimin said, Li Yu was moved and quickly said thank you, teacher!
Liu Yimin was in a very lonely mood and just said lightly: "Why thank me? Hong Tao is your comrade-in-arms, and also the comrade-in-arms of me and Political Commissar Luo. He is the common comrade-in-arms of the Eighth Route Army cadres and soldiers! It's too late to say anything, it's useless! No more!
The honor is just to inspire future generations, and future generations may not be able to express their gratitude for the martyrs' hard work and tragic sacrifice."
Luo Ronghuan knew that Liu Yimin was in a bad mood recently, and he also knew that it was all due to Jingjing's sacrifice. He quickly interjected: "Sir, the matter of Comrade Hong Tao has been reported to the central government. It was purely because you were not in Shandong at that time, and I was afraid of arousing your emotions.
If the rebound leads to a decision-making error, Hong Tao will not be the only one who will die, but probably thousands of martyrs."
Liu Yimin said coldly: "It is for these reasons that the Eighth Route Army sacrifices a political commissar of a brigade-level unit without having to report to me? Am I still not their leader? Am I still not the leader they rely on? I am still not the Shandong Bureau, Shandong Bureau
Military Region, the No. 1 head of the Shandong Administration? Am I still one of the main leaders of the military work of our party and our army? Am I still a member of the Central Committee in charge of the Shandong base area?"
Luo Ronghuan and Li Yu were both stunned.
Liu Yimin's expression did not change, nor did his tone: "If our army loses units above a company, it must be reported to me. Not to mention the instructor division, it is the 115th Division, 120th Division, 129th Division, and Independent Division of the Eighth Route Army. All units above a company must be reported to me.
, the purpose is
It is convenient for me to grasp the enemy's situation. Even the New Fourth Army must report to me if it loses units above a battalion in an organized area. You are senior and have made great contributions, but can your qualifications and contributions be higher than those of Chairman Mao Zedong, Nie Rongzhen, Xu Xiangqian, and Liu Bocheng?
Can he be higher than Ye Ting and Xiang Ying?"
Luo Ronghuan was wondering in his heart, where is all this? Why did he keep talking more and more every month? If he kept talking for a while, he, as a political commissar, would have obviously neglected his duty!
Luo Ronghuan immediately retorted: "I have approved not to report the circumstances of Hong Tao's death to you. The purpose has just been stated, so as not to affect your combat operations to open up the Jiangsu-Anhui border area. If you have different opinions on this matter, I can report it to you.
The Shandong Bureau will conduct a review and submit a review to the central government."
Liu Yimin refused to give up: "It's not just you who need to be reviewed, but also me. I just wrote a piece on intra-party democracy, which aroused the backlash of some pretentious theorists in the party, with a flood of curses. The political commissar can use Shandong
Give it to Zhong in the name of the bureau
The Central Committee sent a telegram to ask Kang Sheng what exactly he wanted to do? Ask whether a normal theoretical discussion atmosphere is needed within the party? Ask whether we want long-term peace and stability or just seize the country? Ask whether we want Liu Yimin or Kang Sheng. Please give the Central Committee a word.
break
That said. Don’t think that reading a little bit of the works of Marx, Engels, and Lenin means you feel great. I know these books by heart! Not only do I understand Japanese and English, but even if I re-write the original German works, there is nothing extraordinary about it. Ask the central government, indulge me
Kang Sheng made unbridled accusations against my discussion of intra-party democracy in the party school. What is the point of criticism? Is there anything wrong with the expansion of intra-party democracy that I advocate? Does the party need to establish a political authority to suppress intra-party democracy?"
Only then did Luo Ronghuan realize that it was probably Tang Xingying who had sent the telegram back to the teacher, reporting on the discussion initiated by Kang Sheng at the Central Party School, which was actually a critical discussion on expanding intra-party democracy. This made Liu Yimin even more sad.
Furious!
In fact, Luo Ronghuan had known about this for a long time, but he thought it was nothing, so he didn't tell Liu Yimin. The purpose was still not to influence Liu Yimin's command of the war!
Seeing that Liu Yimin was so angry, Luo Ronghuan immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. Yes, the instructors fought bloody battles with the Japanese invaders on the front line, and the seized property and equipment were continuously transported back to Shanxi and Shaanxi, asking for money and food.
To provide food, to provide equipment, to provide soldiers
The soldiers have reached this level, but Kang Sheng is still chattering, pointing fingers, and nitpicking. What does this guy want to do? If you have the ability, come to the front line and issue him a rifle or pistol.
Let's see if he can escape when he encounters the Japanese!
Luo Ronghuan immediately said: "Sir, please don't mix your personal feelings into your work. The Central Party School's discussion of the article "On Intra-Party Democracy" may not be correct, but after all, it is just a study and study, not a central document. We
It’s not easy to refute. Besides, Kang Sheng cannot represent the Central Committee. He is a member of the Central Committee, and you and I are also members of the Central Committee. Doesn’t Kang Sheng’s opinion mean that he can love the Central Committee and prevail?”
Li Yu had always been engaged in underground work. When had he ever seen this kind of merciless intra-party struggle? He was so frightened that he stayed aside without daring to say a word.
Zhao Xiaoman was similar to Li Yu. He had never seen a teacher before. When there was a quarrel between the political commissars, he was so frightened that he didn't say a word and silently went to pour water for Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan.
In the end, Luo Ronghuan made a concession and said that he would immediately send a report to the Central Committee to ask what the discussion launched by the Party School on intra-party democracy meant? Is it a new ideological and theoretical criticism of Comrade Liu Yimin?
After Luo Ronghuan expressed his position, he could not have a long talk with Li Yu because of many things. Liu Yimin just told him that the site of Shandong University should be chosen in the Yimeng Mountain District, not in the county town of Ju County. It would be better to choose a small town and build the school while running it.
Mainly to facilitate air defense and evacuation. The principal plans to invite Mr. Huang Yanpei
If he can't come, we will decide on the candidate for the president. In principle, the professional settings of departments should be based on the department settings of Peking University and Tsinghua University, but they are a little more advanced than them. You can consider the four majors of liberal arts, science, engineering, and medicine, and the liberal arts.
There are nine departments of art and music. Science is mainly divided into four categories: physics, chemistry, mathematics, and geology. Engineering is divided into aviation, ocean, construction, materials, water conservancy, transportation, smelting, environmental protection, pharmaceuticals, machinery, electricity, instrumentation, etc. Medical science is based on
Classification of clinical medicine and medical technology. In terms of teaching staff, if you want to
France has hired a large number of well-known scholars and experts at home and abroad to teach. The start of the school year can be tentatively scheduled after the autumn harvest this year, and will be changed to September 1st next year. Funding issues are included in the normal expenditure of the fiscal budget, especially to ensure that famous scholars and famous
The gap between the living standards of professors and famous experts and that before the war should not be too great.
After talking about this issue, Liu Yimin told Li Yu that he must be well prepared. He is planning to hold a plenary meeting of the Shandong Bureau recently to listen to the government work report. The focus of the report is on the construction of political power, the construction of the financial and taxation system, and the construction of culture, education and health.
Li Yu asked Liu Yimin to inscribe the name and motto of Shandong University.
Liu Yimin thought for a while and said: "Let's ask the chairman to inscribe the name of the school! Send a telegram to Tang Xingying. She is in Xi'an and ask her to go see the chairman and ask the chairman to inscribe the name of Shandong University and bring it back when he comes back."
After saying that, Liu Yimin spread out the paper on the table, poured ink, picked up the brush, thought about it for a while, and wrote: "With great power, there is no end to learning." Then he changed a piece of paper and wrote again
: "See the world with an open eye, see the world with an open mind, see the world with an open mind, see the world with an open mind."
After finishing writing, Liu Yimin seemed to still have something to say, so he changed a piece of paper and continued to write: "Implement the professor-governed school system, create an atmosphere of contention among a hundred schools of thought, aim at the world's progress trend, base on future innovation and development, promote the spirit of scientific democracy, and cultivate talents who are constantly striving for self-improvement."
Li Yu's eyes followed Liu Yimin's strokes, and he couldn't help but marvel. When Liu Yimin finished writing, Li Yu couldn't help but said: "Sir, I think you are the most suitable to be the president of Shandong University. Ordinary well-known scholars may be here
In terms of knowledge, I have a deeper foundation than the teacher, but I am afraid that my vision, mind, and tolerance are far behind. The teacher wants a world-class prestigious school, and I am worried that ordinary scholars cannot run such a school."
After Liu Yimin finished writing, he put down his pen and asked Zhao Xiaoman to come over and tidy up the table. Then he said: "There are people in the world, and there is heaven in the sky. Don't let a leaf blind your eyes. Mr. Huang Yanpei is not an ordinary scholar. He is an educator who cares about the country and the people.
As long as he can come, Shandong University will definitely become a famous university all over the world."
