The rising tide of the sea will change the surface of the sea.But what about the sea?When the tide rushes in from the river leading to the sea, the huge ships and ships in the river will lose their souls and toss up; and then turn from the river into a crooked creek, the algae in the creek and the vegetation along the coast will lose their calmness and float. , sinking, moving, swinging, for a long, long time, still not stopping. Before the powerful tide reached Shanghai, it was as if the villages and towns of the crooked river had felt the pulse of the times and lost its calm; to use the words mentioned above, it was like hearing the rumbling tide.

Among the townspeople, who do you know is the most sensitive to this unrest? It was during the New Year of that year, at the door where the "tea picking girl" was in the training lantern festival, she was wearing a black floral gown with the cuffs turned up to reveal the soft white wool, with her hands on her waist and her right hand holding a A pink silk flower, with his right leg stretched half a step forward, his chest straight, standing in a majestic and elegant posture, that tiger Jiang——Jiang Shidiao.Ten years have passed, and only a few wrinkles have been slightly carved on the forehead of his chubby face; his eyes are still like tiger's eyes, with the light that captures others, and his chest is still quite straight.He understands what kind of power is rushing towards us outside, and he also understands what kind of person he is and what kind of position he is in the society.I have always been on the side of taking advantage, if I change from this life, I will suffer everywhere.How annoying is that?However, he only hides his worries in his heart, and he is unwilling to sing on his lips.Singing is in vain to express one's guilt and uselessness, and has no other meaning; he, who prides himself on being strong, is of course clear about this level.But in the end, "words are the voice of the heart", he confided in front of his son an exclamation that seemed to be irrelevant: "When the revolution comes, I don't know what kind of situation it will cause!"

His son Jiang Hua sneered, with complicated meanings in his smile, shrugged and said: "All local tyrants and evil gentry must be defeated, and they are not allowed to harm society again!" This sentence was exactly the opposite; he looked at his father with pity again, as if the one in front of him was about to be knocked down, but it is not a pity! "Everyone will be defeated? How do you know?" "Isn't it published in the newspaper? Like Guangdong, like Hunan, like Hubei, they are all the same, heavy shooting, light parade. Our plan is to come like this!" Jiang Hua's cheeks turned red, It wasn't shame or fear, but boastful splendor; he said the word "come," and he punched the air with his clenched right hand, expressing his determination.

"Your plan? What plan do you have?" Although Jiang Huo asked this, he already understood more than half of it in his heart; it turned out that this kid has been busy with sneaking around these things recently; he can't tell, but he will go in the most fashionable and most fashionable way. At the same time, Lu Bu, who was cheap, relieved more than half of his worries; he was about to find a way and explore the door, but he didn't know that he was right in front of him, right in his own home. "At this time, it doesn't matter if you say it clearly. Our party headquarters plans to do some happy things as soon as the military forces arrive, and show them to the people."

"How many people will be shot and how many people will be paraded through the streets?" "Well! Even if it's not like this, it's about the same," Jiang Hua's answer was so vague. "I, shouldn't I be among them?" Jiang Huo looked anxiously, staring at his son with two round eyes, it was the first time in his life; it can also be said that because the opponent was his son, he did not hide anything, For the first time in his life, he showed embarrassment. Jiang Hua, who is famous for his straightforwardness among his companions, suddenly felt uncomfortable in his speech, and replied hesitantly: "They also said a lot of gossip about you. About you..."

"I don't need to go into details." Jiang Huo stopped Jiang Hua's nonchalant words. At the same time, a ray of hope spread rapidly, and he continued in an emotional tone, "China needs revolution. I believe it very much. Yuan of the Republic of China I also joined the KMT in 2009. If I still want to join now, please introduce me.” Words such as "enlightenment", "cooperation", and "whoever follows me" floated up in Jiang Hua's heart like blisters. Looking at the figure of his burly and slightly old father, he really didn't look like a guy who should be knocked down, so he agreed: "I have a blank form here, you can submit it after filling it out; wait for me to explain it, and I will definitely pass it."

"How do you explain it?" Jiang Huo was still a little worried. "I just want to say one thing. Today is different from yesterday. Everyone believes in it, right? Besides, revolution is not a monopoly of a few people. Whoever is enthusiastic can revolutionize!" "That's a good explanation!" Jiang Huhu had never praised his son so affectionately before; in normal times, he felt that his son was aggressive but not aggressive, brave but not ruthless. Compared with himself, he was like a little witch and a big witch. Complimented. After nodding his head proudly, Jiang Huo asked with concern: "You are probably all young lads, right?"

"I wouldn't come if I wasn't a young guy. They were all classmates in the high school back then." "You won't be too familiar with things in town." Jiang Hua blinked his eyes and said, as if Mr. Xingbu had said something about the past, "That's not true! Yesterday we discussed the issue of the farmers' movement, and about the acres of land. I couldn't make it clear. There are also various taxes in the market. I don’t understand either, and I’m going to investigate on the spot when it’s made public.” "I know a lot about it, I understand it all. You have to know that your father has never suffered from anyone since he was sensible until now, just because he has this little knowledge."

"Now that you've joined, it's like having a military adviser. Everything is much more convenient." Before, he felt sorry for his father, but now he has changed to admiration. Jiang Hua didn't think it was a contradiction.His loyalty to the group was genuine; he was as happy as having passed ten happy bills with such a military adviser as his father. "I'll get the form right away. There's a meeting tonight and it can be brought." Jiang Huo stopped his son and asked, "Don't you have any books? Take a few and let me have a look." "Due to strict inspections, they were not brought from Shanghai. It doesn't matter. After it is made public, it will naturally be shipped in large numbers in large numbers. It won't be too late at that time—it's also very close."

After Jiang Hua said he wanted to leave, he remembered one more thing, turned around and said, "Only that copy, we copied it there. The words are not many, and it is easy to read. However, you need to recite it when you are the chairman." When Jiang Huhu attended the meeting for the first time, he was in a solemn mood that was not usually seen; but seeing that the dozen or so people who attended the meeting together were all reckless young men, and some of them seemed to be inseparable from their parents. Yes, Yan Zheng's mood relaxed.In the middle is Lu Sanfu, a physical education teacher in the Higher School. He held Jiang Hua back then and refused to let him attend his class. Recently, he has let go of his old hatred and joined after Jiang Hua's introduction. At this moment, he is pursing his lips tightly; Here, looking at the long-known.A somewhat scary new comrade.

The topic is to continue the discussion in this meeting. When it is released publicly, what kind of work will be done to show strength?Some people say that the Sanguantang in Dongzhatou is usually visited by some people to burn incense and make wishes.Some people advocate immediately announcing a rent reduction. The peasants are burdened with multiple oppressions. Even if the rent is completely exempted, it may not be cheaper for them.Some people say that at least a few vile and corrupt people must be paraded through the streets, so that the public will know that the new forces will have no mercy for these people. Jiang Huo waited for no one to express his opinions, and then he said calmly and without emotion like an old monk in Buddhist affairs: "Everyone's ideas are very good. I think it can be done and should be done. But things have to be done separately. There is a sequence; the last must be done first, and the first must be missed, which is not very appropriate. For example, there are only a dozen of us here, and once it is made public, saying that we are a new force, who will convince us? ? At this point, shouldn't we work on it first?" "That's not necessary," continued the chairman, with his wild hair raised. "We are not fake, the higher authorities know it, isn't that enough proof?" "It's not fake, of course. Post a few notices from higher authorities to prove our status. I also know that there is such a way. But it's not spicy or exciting. I mean, the new forces have arrived, and we have to use them like a sharp knife and sharp axe The imposing manner of splitting the minds of the people and letting them put in the strong impression, only then will we have room for action, and only then can we do everything thoroughly." Jiang Huo explained patiently, like enlightening Ben's naughty subordinates. "Then, Dad, you see how to work hard, just say it," Jiang Hua said bluntly. Suddenly "Dad" came in the middle of the rally, and everyone felt funny, with smiles on their faces; some couldn't help it, and laughed out loud. "What I mean is that one or two people should go up to meet the army that is about to come to Shanghai, and ask them to come to our town; even if they can't come to the brigade, it's good to have a row; if they definitely don't want to come, just say we are here There are a lot of bandits, security is important, so you must come. Revolutionary army! Everyone imagines that they are like gods, but now they are standing side by side with us in front of the people. What a strong impression this is!" "That's a good opinion!" Everyone murmured, expressing admiration, even if the vote passed this item. "Also," Jiang Huo did not show his complacency. He looked at the congregation in a circle and said, "the dozens of policemen here also have to contact them first. It's not that they are afraid that they will harm us. In this Under the circumstances, they dare not; I want them to come to our side affectionately and strengthen our strength." Everyone agreed without hesitation.Some time ago, this group of young people was obsessed with destroying all the old forces. They once imagined the grand feat of rushing into the police station and snatching the guns from the police like a dream; but now they saw another illusion. The policemen leaning lazily on the hand at the entrance of the alley called each other "comrade". Seeing that he already had the supernatural powers of a hypnotist, Jiang Huhu said in a more faithful tone: "I can take full responsibility for the police. They all believe in me. I said that we should rise up for revolution now. None of them are willing to be counter-revolutionary." .Besides, I think I need to introduce some people." "There are too few revolutionary people here. They are full of corrupt, low-quality guys in the local team. Where can we get it! If there are really revolutionary people, of course the more the better; Reject the feudal ideas!" The chairman explained the reason for the small number of people, with infinite emotion. "It's not necessarily too little," Jiang Huo said after a moment of thought. "According to my observation, most of the guys in the local bad team think they are upper-class people; while in the lower class, I know that there are quite a few revolutionary ones. They have tasted all kinds of pain and understand the meaning of liberation better than anyone else." We all know that they are willing to be the vanguard of the revolution!" When he finished speaking, his voice became fierce and his expression was quite high, just like a skilled agitator. "Comrade Jiang said it bluntly. Only the lower classes are worthy of being the vanguard of the revolution!" A tall young man wearing glasses shouted again; by him. "Then, we have decided to recruit comrades from the lower classes in order to strengthen the power of the revolution," the chairman said as if commanding.The one next to him was holding on to a pencil and writing in a hurry before it was too late, so he also wrote down this sentence. "At this level, I can also take some responsibility; wait for me to introduce it and let everyone pass." Jiang Huo's tone stopped here, and continued, "Speaking of which, the things that should be done first seem to be almost the same. Then Then we can talk about our actions in this town. I think that we should concentrate on doing things, and capture the king when we catch thieves. It is meaningless to punch east and palm west. We have identified the center of the corrupt forces in this town. It is reasonable to eradicate it from the brain." The tall man wearing glasses rushed to say: "We have discussed before that the center of the corrupt forces in this town is our principal Jiang Bingru. He controls everything. He is the senior principal, the township director is him, and the president of the chamber of commerce is him. .He is literally the emperor of this town. When a revolution breaks out, the first shot will of course be aimed at the emperor!" I don't know what kind of meaning the chairman thought of, and said to Lu Sanfu with a little shame: "We have nothing to do with him now, but you, Mr. Lu, are still a teacher in the school." "That's nothing," Lu Sanfu shook his head in a panic, "I'm the same as you, and I don't care about selfishness when I'm a public servant." The blush rose from her cheeks to her neck, and the scar on her right cheek seemed to be more prominent. "Jiang Bingru regards the school as his private property!" The one who said this angrily was a young man who claimed to love art, but recently looked down on art. "Last year I went to him and said let me do the art homework in school, and I don't care about the salary. It's a perfunctory talk, no matter how good it is, it's a pity that there is no vacancy. Xu Youfu's old corruption is still there. Liu Weiting's English sounds like a foreign language to the British, but he continues to use it year after year just because the two of them are close. These are the behaviors of a schoolboy, and they are already qualified to be knocked down!" "Besides, he is a township director," Jiang Hua continued irritably, "when a woman asks for a divorce, he judges that it is best not to divorce. This is obviously benefited by the man, so he relies on the power of the township director to oppress her. Poor woman!" "His son looks down on people from Hua Yihua's eyes. When he met our classmates, he seemed to ignore him, as if saying that we are college students in Shanghai. What are you! You are also a pair of treasures!" The voice came from Lu Sanfu. right.The chairman squinted and saw a pair of eyes burning with jealousy. Jiang Huo smiled tolerantly and said: "The son is another problem. The school employs improper personnel, and it is best to persuade women not to divorce. It is still a small matter, and it can be forgiven. We should think about it in general, whether he is a member of corrupt forces or not." Center; if it is, knock him down without hesitation!" This is his trick of playing hard to get.The tall man couldn't bear to hear any more, raised his right arm and shouted: "This is a question that is not for discussion! For several years, everything in the town belongs to him, and all dog-headed gentlemen and dog-headed rich people respect him as a shield. He has a lot of fields, runs a few shops, and is a damn capitalist. If he is not the center of corrupt forces, it can be said that our town is so advanced that we don't need revolution!" "Nawei, you're not welcome, knock him down!" Jiang Huhu's brushstrokes have returned to the original purpose; he smiled slightly, and then discussed with a group of young people the steps to beat him. There are still many people in the town who feel restless when they hear the sound of the tide in the distance, and they are probably people with some wealth.Several civil wars gave them a wealth of experience. As soon as they heard that the army was approaching, they packed their suitcases, packed up their bedding, and ran to Shanghai; , in short, it is to celebrate the rebirth; when the legendary war is over, the old and the young will be supported again, and the boxes and cages will be brought back.They thought, now they have to review the old lessons again.They also learned some distant situations from the newspapers, and they had mixed doubts and beliefs, and it was impossible to construct a reality in their imaginations; this was more terrifying than the previous few times, so they felt that the trip to Shanghai was even more inevitable.In a few days, in order to send people from Shanghai to the railway station, all the boats were hired, and anyone who wanted to hire a boat had to book a few days in advance. Jin Shubo decided that the couple would run to Shanghai; logically, he would of course ask his sister if she wanted to take the child with the old lady.Peizhang replied that Huanzhi's letter didn't mention this point; the old lady didn't need to ask, she could be sure that she didn't want to leave, and there was absolutely no reason for her to leave with the child alone; it's better not to be too fussy, since there is nothing at home anyway. Salivating stuff.Uncle Shu finally did his best, and he stopped trying to persuade him, saying "see you when you come back" and parted. Uncle Shu ran to Bingru again, but he really wanted to keep company.Unexpectedly, Bingru's answer was completely beyond his expectation.Bingru said: "In the past few times, you avoided going to Shanghai, and I quite agreed with it. Only this time, I absolutely oppose your going; it's just disturbing yourself, and it doesn't make any sense!" "Why? This time is different than the previous few times!" "Because they are different, there is no need to escape. It is the revolutionary army, not like the army of warlords, how can it disturb the people? As for the party members, although I don't know who is in this town now, but you only need to look at Huanzhi, like Huanzhi Are people like that willing to disturb the people? Don’t bother wasting your money, just sit at home and wait to see the new situation.” "But it was clearly recorded in the newspaper that where they went, what did they support and what did they defeat, and they harassed severely." "They support the peasants and workers. The peasants and workers have always been trampled underfoot unreasonably. Since it is a revolution, it is right to support their interests. What they overthrow are local tyrants and evil gentry, and stupid thieves who harm the locality. We ask ourselves that we are neither local tyrants nor local tyrants." If you are not an evil gentry, your fists will never hit us. For example, Jiang Shibao, who usually bullies kindness and runs rampant in the countryside, so you have to be careful, he has the qualifications to wear a paper hat and parade through the streets." "You have to think about your own status." When Uncle Shu said this, an idiom whose source he couldn't remember clearly came to mind, "He can be replaced." Bingru smiled indifferently and asked: "Are you talking about the status of my township director? This is not a position with privileges and benefits, it is nothing more than doing some duties for the local government. Besides, I don't necessarily want to hold this position ; the revolutionaries are running ahead of me, and I am willing to let them do it." He also said: "But now the duties are still on my shoulders, and I am not willing to be casual. I thought that during this period, a group of bandits and hooligans would take the opportunity to make trouble, so I should be on guard; so I called today's defense meeting. Unexpectedly, they all They ran away, but only four people arrived; like you, we didn’t leave even if we wanted to leave, and we didn’t arrive. The four of us had to discuss with the police chief and ask him to tell the brothers to step up their defenses, especially at night.” Shubo seemed to have only heard Bingru's words, so he became more determined to run to Shanghai. "Didn't they all run away? Are they all mediocre and meaningless? I decided to leave early tomorrow morning, goodbye!"
