Chapter 14 Chapter 1

In 1928, the Northern Expedition was successful and the country was unified. The national government established Nanjing as its capital, and elites from all provinces came to work together to build a new China.Those ten years were not only the golden decade of the country, but also the golden decade of my father's life. Qi Shiying, who came to Nanjing from Shanhaiguan, was quite welcomed.Although Guo Songling's remonstrance with Zhang Zuolin failed and he died, he asked Fengjun to withdraw from the warlord's struggle for the Central Plains and return to his hometown to strengthen the local strength. The declaration of remonstrance against Russian and Japanese aggression has been broadcast throughout the country.Therefore, the national government formed by the revolutionary party that overthrew the imperial system welcomed this first revolutionary youth from the Northeast to participate in the work of building the country. His Kuomintang membership card was number one in Liaozi.

But when Generalissimo Jiang met him, he said: "You are not like a Northeast!" This sentence has quite complicated meanings.During the Northern Expedition, people's impression of Fengjun was brave, tough, and even rude.But this twenty-seven-year-old Northeast revolutionist is gentle and refined, like a jade tree facing the wind (commented by Lu Chunfang).He is proficient in three languages: English, Japanese, and German. Two years ago, he was studying philosophy of history at Heidelberg University. He is a figure that is difficult to classify.He told Mr. Jiang that he was willing to work on diplomacy, culture and education: Mr. Jiang replied that there are too many things we can do in such a big China.So he was sent to the Central Policy Committee (not named at the time) as an appointed councilor.He worked with Niu Yongjian, Huang Ru, Chen Guofu, Chen Lifu, etc., and then made friends with soldiers from all over the world, and became a faction in the government who knew the sun. He also went to the Japanese Infantry School to study as a lieutenant for a year.

Japan's ambition to invade China has intensified since the Treaty of Shimonoseki was signed during the Sino-Japanese War in 1895 and Taiwan was ceded.In 1905, the Japanese defeated Russia in Northeast China and gained control of the railway, and they continued to cause troubles in various parts of China.Twenty-one unequal treaties were enforced in 1915, the "May 3rd Shandong Massacre" was caused in 1928, Shenyang was occupied in 1931 (September 18th Incident), and the puppet Manchukuo was established a year later.The national government is aware of this series of aggressive actions, but when it is still breathing, it can only speed up its pace.Build the army, set up industries, organize and train the people.During those ten years in Nanjing, it seemed that I was desperately trying to strengthen the physical strength of an old man who had suffered from a serious illness for a hundred years. Such hard work was full of hope and confidence.The Xi'an Incident launched by the reckless and rude Zhang Xueliang damaged the image of the Northeast Army, gave the Yan'an CCP a chance to grow in the future, and concentrated the Chinese people's anti-Japanese enthusiasm under the leadership of Chairman Jiang.

In 1930, my mother Wanli Xunfu brought my siblings to Nanjing, and what I saw was a thriving capital under construction everywhere.My father and his young friends are busy asking God for time (bUying time) to promote various modernizations to strengthen the national strength, because they know that the Japanese military is stepping up the pace of aggression. The Japanese army said: "If you don't act quickly, China will stand Woke up!"
