Back to the Republic of China as a commander

In the eighth year of the Republic of China, on October 1919, 10, Wang Zhenyu, accompanied by Wang Longzhong, vice chairman of the National Government, drove to China Square, and then walked into the National Square, the seat of the National Congress, under layers of protection.

Next, he will deliver a speech to 378 members of the Senate and 215 members of the Legislative Yuan at the National Square. This speech will also be the first time that the China Radio Station, which has just been established for half a year, will broadcast to the whole country.China Radio Station is one of Wang Chunhua's achievements. She herself serves as the director of the station, and sub-stations have been set up at the county level in the area under the jurisdiction of the Nationalist Government to spread the signal.In this technology, due to the attention and investment of the National Socialist Party, the Chinese lead the world.In the original time and space, the first broadcast was not broadcast until November 19, 11 in human history. . .

In addition to the members of the Political and Legislative Chambers, Nanjing's political leaders, economic tycoons, and even celebrities from Shanghai, as well as traditional media, representatives of intellectuals, student representatives, and generals of the army attended the meeting. The 3000-person main hall was packed to the brim.This made Sun Wen, the chairman of the National Government who has given speeches here many times, very jealous. You must know that every time he gave a speech, let alone an observer, even the members of the parliament were often absent, and he did not let himself, the chairman of the National Government, go. in the eyes. . .

Wang Zhenyu came in wearing a handsome white military uniform of the army, navy and air force. What he wore was not a military rank, but the unique golden plum flower epaulettes of the chairman of the military committee.Such a handsome military uniform coupled with Wang Zhenyu's enviable youth and calm demeanor in his late thirties, no matter how you look at it, it is pleasing to the eye.

Out of respect for the creator of the entire national government system, the [-] participants spontaneously rose to welcome Wang Zhenyu's entry.

Wang Zhenyu's pace was very steady, unlike the usual habit of nodding and greeting acquaintances, this time Wang Zhenyu didn't look at anyone, and walked directly to the speaking platform in the middle of the aisle of the English-style venue with a solemn face.Surprisingly, he didn't take any speech papers. He just glanced at the congressmen on both sides and started his speech:

"Dear all citizens, members of parliament, and friends from all walks of life who care about our youth army: Hello! It is a great honor to stand on the podium of the National Assembly to communicate and communicate with you. Today is October 300, a glorious and A sacred day. Eight years ago today, many people with lofty ideals of the Chinese nation took the risk of killing their families and fired the first shot to overthrow the Manchu Qing rule in Wuhan. A barbaric, backward, greedy and selfish regime that has enslaved China for nearly [-] years finally It was successfully overthrown, and our nation is on the right track again. Looking back at the great Revolution of [-], some of the participants of the year have turned into a cup of loess, and some have betrayed the revolution and stood on the side that endangers the interests of the nation. More are still fighting hard for the unity and strength of the motherland just like the people present here."

Pause, applause. . .

"Now let's go back to the topic of this meeting and talk about what kind of army our youth army is. During the Revolution of 11, I was still following my uncle, who is now the vice chairman of the National Government. Mr. Wang Longzhong, Commander-in-Chief of the Aid to Hubei and Hunan Army, served as a small supervisor, or a battalion officer. We were incorporated under the command of Governor Li Yuanhong and Commander-in-Chief Huang Xing to participate in the counterattack against Hankou. Strong, our battle failed. In order to cover the transfer of other brothers, the officers and soldiers of our commander took up the blocking task, so we were unable to return to Hanyang. But on that night, relying on our second battalion and the Hubei student team With courage, we successfully raided the Yudaimen Station and destroyed the Qing army’s logistics supplies. On that day, our tiger banner was unleashed. Afterwards, we were reorganized into the Ninth Brigade and ordered to be transferred to Nanjing to participate in the Northern Expedition , and then we went back to Hunan with a brigade of soldiers to avenge the revolutionary martyrs Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin who were killed by Mei Xin, and wiped out the Fifth Division of the Hunan Army colluding with the Qing Dynasty. The next thing is that Xiangxi defeated many Warlords, bandits, and cult forces that destroy local development. We also participated in the Second Revolution, the War to Protect the Country, and gained our own reputation in war after war. In Europe, our youth army is for the benefit of the nation and the country It was a two-year arduous battle with the troops of the Allied Powers, at the cost of [-] officers and soldiers killed and [-] officers and soldiers injured. In the end, we won the victory of the First World War. Dear Members, myself There is only one purpose for telling so many past events here, that is, from the beginning to the end, the youth army is a righteous army with a sense of justice. Division, a division of benevolence and righteousness, a division of might. This glorious, great and invincible army is by no means what some people with ulterior motives say. They are my personal soldiers and warlord troops. They are the troops of the Chinese nation. They are the army of the country, the army of the nation, and the soldiers of the whole nation."

Speaking of this, the audience burst into warm applause. Members who have been worried about the political turmoil caused by the impeachment case can be relieved. Wang Zhenyu's attitude undoubtedly shows that at least this time the army will not use force to resolve internal conflicts.

"Now I want to tell the respected members of parliament a few news that were sent late last night, because I think these few news are related to today's vote. The first news, just yesterday, in Shanxi, was sent The central government in Beijing, run by the warlord leader Zhang Zuolin, launched an attack on the Shanxi governor Yan Xishan’s army under the banner of unifying the country by force. It can be said that a civil war has broken out. The civil war was provoked by someone else, who kept saying that we want peace and not war. The warlord Zhang Zuolin and his puppet central government. It can be said that having hope for peace in such a central government is different from seeking skins from tigers. What we can do to deal with such shameless enemies is to hold the steel guns in our hands tightly and discover If he wants to make trouble, he will punish them severely and let them know how to be a good boy, everyone agrees, right?"

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, no one thought that Wang Zhenyu would make a joke on such a serious occasion.

"The second news is about Japan, a friendly neighbor with a narrow strip of water. It was also yesterday that the Japanese Minister to China Yukichi Kobata formally delivered a notice to the President of the Republic of China, Mr. Xu Shichang. Under the pretext of protecting Japanese nationals, three The Japanese army of the division entered Shandong, and at the same time announced that any squadron entering the Shandong area would be regarded as in a state of war with Japan. What kind of behavior is this? I can tell you clearly that this is aggression. It is difficult for me to understand that there will be People with normal intelligence choose to treat the aggressor as a friend, and I can't understand why the proposal to weaken our national defense force in order to avoid angering the aggressor can appear in our National Congress openly."

Wang Zhenyu supported the microphone and shouted very excitedly: "China and Japan are indeed separated by a narrow strip of water, but they are by no means friendly neighbors. Will such a country, which faces the threat of volcanoes and earthquakes every day and has serious shortages of various resources, be friendly with you, China?" A China that has not even been able to achieve reunification, lacks inclusiveness in politics, and is full of internal strife, but is extremely rich in land and resources. If you don’t let the Japanese bite you, who do you let him bite? 24 years ago, the Japanese passed The Sino-Japanese War of 19-[-] dragged the whole of China into the bottomless abyss of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, and made competent officials like Li Hongzhang reduced to paper-stickers and scapegoats. We paid a full [-] million taels of silver, and this money became Japan is moving towards a powerful primitive accumulation. [-] years ago, it was Japan again, acting as the vanguard of the Eight-Nation Alliance, the first to invade Beijing, burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of crimes. Finally, it tossed out the "Boxer Treaty" that restricted the development of our country. It is true that the Qing Dynasty is the great enemy of national progress, but Japan is by no means a friend of China’s progress. As long as we Chinese are still there, as long as our Chinese nation does not perish, we don’t need them to inherit our Chinese civilization. After Yashan, China is still there After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, China still survived. As for Japan, this is a vicious wolf. If we don’t deal with him, but treat him as a father and a friend as a thief, how stupid is that? I don’t object to learning from Japan. It is inevitable, but it is our duty to defeat Japan and our youth army. So here I am sending two proposals to determine the future situation of China to all distinguished congressmen. Please consider them immediately. The first proposal, given that the Central Government of the Republic of China in Beijing has already It has been reduced to a tool of the warlord dictatorship and the vanguard of Japan’s invasion of China. From now on, we no longer recognize its legitimacy as the central government. I propose that the National Government formally assume the functions of the central government and lead all citizens to defeat all foreign invaders and Internal thieves, to win democratic independence and freedom. The second proposal, since the national government assumed the functions of the central government, authorize the youth army to carry out self-defense operations against foreign invading forces that invaded Chinese territory, expel them, and annihilate them. For those who have invaded Shandong Japan, from this moment on, has entered a state of war. For all those who oppose or even cooperate with the Japanese invaders, they will be punished by the strict "Regulations on the Punishment of Traitors and Internal Thieves". Those who do not surrender will be wiped out and will never be forgiven... I am here to officially announce that as long as the Youth Army survives, we will never allow the semi-colonial and semi-feudal society to continue to exist. The soldiers of the Youth Army, Army, Navy, and Air Force obey orders, The survival of the nation is in this battle, kill all the Japanese invaders and serve the country. Long live the great Chinese nation, long live the invincible youth army!"

In the National Square, in the bases of the armed forces, in every county, school, and factory where the radio can be heard, all those listening to the radio were excited by Wang Zhenyu's words.Decades of humiliation, generations of expectations, finally see the light and hope.All the people couldn't help shouting: "Long live the Chinese nation, long live the youth army!"

At the scene, the congressmen and other participants stood up one after another, and gave the warmest and longest applause to Wang Zhenyu who turned around and walked towards the entrance after bowing. . .
