The play tells the story of the period from 1938 to 1944 when Japan invaded China and shattered the country. Under the leadership and promotion of the Communist Party of China, a large number of patriotic and progressive cultural figures such as Guo Moruo, Xia Yan, Tian Han, Ba Jin, Liu Yazi, Tao Xingzhi, Xu Beihong, Mao Dun, and Ouyang Yuqian gathered in Guilin.Shuijian uses the pen as a gun and the stage as a battlefield. Through a series of cultural movements such as journalism, literature, drama, music, and art, he promotes the anti-Japanese national united front, transforms exile and revival, hardship and responsibility, survival and death, personal emotions and national feelings, etc. into the Great Wall of national culture to resist foreign aggression, and carries out the story of a "Cultural War of Resistance" without gunpowder.

Episode 1

On September 18, 1931, Japan launched a war against China, first of all, the September 18th War. Due to the Democratic Party’s passive attitude towards resistance, the Northeast quickly fell, and the nationwide call for anti-Japanese war was fierce.

In Shanghai in 1935, Chinese party members Xia Yan and Nie Er and other lyricists gathered together. When they heard the just-made Volunteer Army March, their eyes were red with excitement. At that time, the Kuomintang adopted the policy of first resolutely pacifying the country, which led to frequent civil wars and countless people lived in dire straits. They urgently got this song to inspire everyone's fighting spirit.

At the Wayaobao Conference, Chairman Mao and Comrade Zhou Enlai began to fully deploy future victory plans and war policies. They decided to change the Civil Republic into the People's Republic, mobilize the workers and peasants to fight against Japan together, and re-establish the revolutionary united front.Chairman Mao has a far-sighted vision and rationally analyzed that the current situation of China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society should be changed. After the party's unremitting efforts, in 1936, Chen Bulei, director of the Kuomintang's office, brought Chiang Kai-shek a letter, saying that the Communist D wanted to establish a united front in China's comprehensive war of resistance and war, and hoped that the Kuomintang could fully cooperate, but Chiang Kai-shek was still half-believing and half-doubted, and said that he should weigh the trade-offs carefully.

When the people received news that Guo Moruo wanted to return to China, Chiang Kai-shek disagreed with this matter. At that time, Guo Moruo published an article to attack Chiang Kai-shek, and knew that he was worried about it now. This time, he didn't take it seriously when he heard about Guo Moruo.On the contrary, Chairman Mao was very excited when he heard the news that he should return to China. At that time, Lu Xun, a national cultural revolutionary writer, was the first person to awaken the people and inspire the spirit of the Republic of China. However, he passed away. Now Guo Moruo is also a revolutionary writer, so it is very necessary to help him return to China smoothly.

Late at night, Xia Yan received a mysterious call, and this person asked him to go downstairs quickly. It was the most severe period of white terror and could be assassinated at any time. Xia Yan took the risk to go out and met An E, a progressive journalist and writer. An E drove him on a long journey. Finally, Xia Yan met the admirer whom he longed for day and night - Comrade Zhou Enlai.

Comrade Zhou Enlai brought unanimous opinions within the party and asked Comrade Xia Yan to serve as the editor-in-chief of the National Saving Daily. This was a very exciting moment. As a patriotic poet Xia Yan hated the Japanese invaders to the core. He accepted this glorious task and soon after, he went to the dock to pick up Guo Moruo who had returned from Japan.

After Guo Moruo came back, Comrade Zhou Enlai came to see him in person and discussed the general - National Saving Daily - as the Position of the Cultural Revolution, and launched the national war of resistance. Li Kenong and Xia Yan and others were also editors of National Saving Daily.After the news was released, the people across the country began to receive new calls for the War of Resistance. The rumors that Japan clamored to destroy Country Z within three months were soon shattered.Countless boys ran on the road, conveying the latest battle situation to the people of the whole country. The anti-Japanese unification team continued to grow, and the news of victory after victory was inspiring.

Progressive student Han Dayong began to promote the G Party Manifesto at the school, hoping that everyone would unite and strive to survive the darkest period before dawn. Another article was written particularly well. Han Dayong conveyed a belief to everyone that as long as they work together, they would definitely get a better tomorrow.Suddenly a girl at the scene was particularly excited. She was Ren Suning, the author of this article.

Han Dayong admired Ren Suning's writing very much and immediately invited her to become a member of the newspaper. Ren Suning agreed happily. At this moment, one plane after another flew over his head. Just as everyone had not understood, shells rushing down like raindrops, the building began to collapse, and the sound of explosions were everywhere in his ears, and countless people fell into the ruins.

Episode 2

Japan began to enter Nanjing, and Ren Suning's family had moved into the concession. She fantasized that the concession should be safe, but her father was deeply worried that he had been to Japan. When the whole Japanese people were in a state of madness, several signs could not stop the crazy beast.

In Shanghai, Xia Yan received a comrade who had stopped publication. Now there has been news from Yan'an that the black terror is too serious now, so you must evacuate Shanghai immediately and retain the fire.Xia Yan immediately called the employee and asked to organize the on-site information as quickly as possible and transfer it immediately. During the transfer process, Xia Yan's home was blown up. The situation was urgent and there was no time to be sad. Xia Yan immediately arranged the vehicle and transferred the comrades and important journals together.

Japan's equipment was very advanced. National D struggled to hold on for several days, but in the end it was still impossible to defeat the other party. It was important to preserve its strength. The army immediately retreated, and countless soldiers watched their city trampled on by the enemy's iron hooves.Ren Suning's father was very angry when he saw the newspaper. The Japanese called it a rescue in the newspaper. It was a lie. He was originally a robber, but now he is hypocritical and especially shameless.But now the Kuomintang has evacuated to Chongqing, what should I do in Nanjing?Ren Suning's father immediately took his wife and children to move, but on the way, the Japanese gunpowder was too serious. Seeing that the Japanese army was about to rush over, countless bombs exploded, Ren Suning's father knew that he could not escape, so he had to take his wife and daughter back home.

The Japanese quickly swept here. Fortunately, Ren Suning's parents hid their daughter under the bed, which saved Ren Suning's life.The people in Nanjing were tragically ravaged. Even the unarmed man still did not escape the crazy assassination. Countless women became trophys for the Japanese to vent, the red blood on the ground turned purple and black, and countless citizens who died in vain on the road. These days became the history of humiliation in the entire city.

Comrade Deng Yingchao saw the Nanjing Daily and was extremely disgusted with Zhou Fohai's hypocritical remarks.Our party urgently needs propagandists who speak for the people. At a critical moment, Guo Moruo took the initiative to apply to the party, hoping to restore his party membership. Comrade Zhou Enlai carefully analyzed the current situation and felt that Comrade Guo Moruo would continue to be a party member, so that he could also cast a key vote for the people when the Politburo was held.

Ren Suning escaped with the fugitive troops, and countless burns, killings and looting along the way were shocking. The heinous crimes committed by the Japanese in China were incredible. Ren Suning spent all her money on her body to buy paper for writing. She spent all her time writing, writing from the first perspective of the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese in China.She went to the newspaper and found the editor, hoping that the editor could publish the book. The editor believed that the entire content of the book was read. Although each article was touching, it was now in chaos and the newspaper did not publish any more books.

Ren Suning continued to flee with people during the day, often experiencing plane bombings. Every time the explosion sounded, groups of refugees fell down. Ren Suning picked up the little girl with blood on her face. What a tender and fresh life disappeared in front of her. The refugees who were walking with them sighed in despair when they saw countless dead and injured compatriots.

As the domestic war was intensified, Comrade Zhou Enlai and Xia Yan discussed moving the original staff of the National Saving Daily to Guilin, where transportation was convenient and the Japanese invaders were not strictly controlled. They also took this favorable opportunity to establish a cultural anti-Japanese war again.

Episode 3

After the fall of Shanghai, the people placed their hopes on Wuhan, hoping to get the protection of the party and the army. However, not long after, the Kuomintang also evacuated Wuhan and flew to Chongqing. When Nanjing and Shanghai were lost, they were bombed by the Japanese army. The people were worried that they would encounter the tragedy in Nanjing and evacuated from Wuhan one after another.

On the plane to Chongqing, Chiang Kai-shek saw crowds of people fleeing on the ground. As an important leader in charge of people's safety, he probably knew what kind of experience he would have in his heart.Zhou Enlai encountered Bai Chongxi, who had a vehicle malfunctioning on the way to the meeting. Bai Chongxi was positive about the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Zhou Enlai stopped the car and asked someone to help repair the vehicle. Then he communicated with Bai Chongxi for a while. Bai Chongxi was naturally a witness to the fact that Japan's military power was strong. When he saw the groups of refugees passing by, he also had deep concerns about the future.Zhou Enlai gave Bai Chongxi a book about Chairman Mao's "On Protracted War". This book analyzes China's national conditions and future revolutionary plans in detail, crushing the plan for a quick battle invasion, and bringing hope to the Chinese.Bai Chongxi took the book and said that he would read it seriously. The secretary beside him watched everything around him alertly.

Comrade Zhou Enlai also discussed with Bai Chongxi that he would provide convenience for the National Salvation Daily during the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and respond to the foreign overseas Chinese and the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so that the donations of Chinese people can be successfully reached in China.

There is also a railway station in Wuhan, which brings together many artists, poets and writers, including Ai Qing, Wang Luyan, Tao Xingzhi, Li Kenong, Ba Jin, Xu Beihong, etc. Sometimes they will meet on the streets, and after meeting each other, they will talk about the current situation of the country. I hope that they can contribute to China with their large pen in their hands. Although it is insignificant, a spark is enough to set off a prairie fire.

Xia Yan and Li Kenong also arrived in Wuhan. They began to form a daily newspaper base for national salvation, absorbing outstanding talents, and forming the strongest front. Feng Zikai also joined the base, and everyone gathered together. At this time, these patriotic writers and literati were worried about China's future.

Li Kenong found that he often followed the tail of the % behind him. These tails were either the National Party or the Japanese and puppet troops. Li Kenong also told his son that if he sacrificed one day, he would let him take good care of his mother. If his mother also sacrificed, he would let his children take care of the country.

Episode 4

Li Kenong found a place to settle down. This is a winery. There are mixed mermaids and dragons that usually come and go. Because the route is complicated, it will be very convenient when leaving.In a few days, literati from all walks of life will gather here to hold a meeting.

When the winery boss saw that Li Kenong was of good temperament, the two of them asked him what he was doing when they were drinking. When Li Kenong saw that the winery boss was not a scum, he directly claimed that he was an anti-Japanese war.At that time, there were also many patriots in the business world. The boss saw the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese in China in the newspaper and expressed support for Li Kenong's work. When he heard Li Kenong's suggestion to open up the West Courtyard and the East Courtyard, he agreed.

Soon another guy with a numb and pointed face came to the winery. He saw that he was not a good person. When he came to rent a house, the winery owner immediately said that he was full of people and the other party did not give up. He asked who had rented so many houses for so much money. The winery owner was knowledgeable and answered the questions very sleekly.

Finally, the patriotic conference was held as scheduled. Wang Luyan, Tao Xingzhi, Li Kenong, Ba Jin, Xu Beihong, and the famous geologist Li Siguang and painter Feng Zikai all came. Many aspiring people found the same sincere patriotic enthusiasm here. They spoke freely and expressed that their works would strive to fight the war in the future.On the way to the meeting, a warlord came to the inn. Seeing so many people from other places sitting down, he was frustrated and cursed.

At this time, a righteous voice sounded. He read a collection of poems he had just created - I love this land -. The audience stood up excitedly when they heard the collection of poems. This poem expressed the voice they wanted to say the most. However, the great country had no choice but to the barbarian land. The Japanese pirates were rampant, which made them extremely indignant.Ai Qing, a very talented poet, was young and promising. There were many people who were indignant about Japan gathered around him. Li Kenong took the opportunity to promote everyone's progressive ideas and determination to fight against Japan. After hearing this, everyone was excited and shouted that they must expel Japan.

Soon the story of Changsha spread to Guilin. Japan adopted the so-called % scorched earth resistance. A large number of Japanese and puppet troops entered Changsha and set fires wherever they went, trying to destroy the fighting spirit of the Chinese. The fire burned for three days and three nights, and countless residents were burned to death, and the losses were countless.Since it has been burned to Changsha, Guilin will be involved in the near future. Although Li Kenong is ready to sacrifice at any time, he also urgently needs to see the dawn.My son likes to send out the newspaper and often practices to send out the newspaper quietly. When Li Kenong heard his son's practice sending out a signal of missing his mother, he ruthlessly criticized his son for being inattentive, but when he really heard his son crying for missing his mother, he couldn't help but turn red in his eyes.

The fire burned for three days and three nights. Countless anti-Japanese war people were still scared when they thought of this scene. Twenty thousand living lives were gone. Progressive Huang Qianzhai felt deeply desperate about the future after reading the newspaper. Guo Moruo came to visit him and admitted that war was cruel and the truth was not profound, but Huang Qianzhai was sad. The cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party failed. Isn’t this a strange story in the world?Guo Moruo was speechless for a while after hearing this.

Episode 5

Xia Yan and Hong Shen discussed the future of China together. When they heard that Hong Shen was already desperate for the Kuomintang, Xia Yan encouraged him with his personal experience. The people's hearts are still there. Many Chinese people love the motherland deeply. They believe that the Chinese children have a sincere heart and make Hong Shen persist in creating. Hong Shen's eyes are red. Over the years, he has been immersed in artistic discussions and created many scripts, but he did not expect that the scorched earth policy would completely crush his only thoughts. Now he really has no way to serve the country.Looking at Hong Shen's deep self-blame and despair, Xia Yan's heart also began to hurt.

The Japanese army extended their iron hooves to Guilin. Bai Chongxi saw a group of planes flying towards the city center on the road, and soon explosions broke out. Thinking of a large number of innocent citizens tragically dying, Bai Chongxi shook his head helplessly.When I returned to the Guilin Military Affairs Office, I happened to hear Xue Boling criticizing police officers outside the office. It turned out that a large number of refugees flocked to Guilin, stealing and fighting often happened, which directly affected the public security in Guilin. Police officers wanted to issue a notice prohibiting outsiders from entering Guilin.

Xue Boling believes that local mayor Bai Chongxi has done a lot of urban construction before, just to make Guilin a provincial capital, but Guilin only has a population of 50,000 or 60,000, and it cannot be a condition for election at all, so he can also take advantage of this opportunity to enrich Guangxi's population.

Bai Chongxi admired Xue Boling's suggestions very much. As a local parent official, he saw that Nanjing, Changsha and Wuhan were bombarded by the Japanese and puppet troops one after another. The city he had finally built had become a ruin. It was really regretful. Guilin is still relatively stable in comparison. I heard that many heroes among them have arrived in Guilin, and just took this opportunity to retain talents and let them help Guilin develop rapidly.And in the short term, Chiang Kai-shek wanted to act and fight against Japan together. With this argument, they can take good care of the people and protect Guilin's urban construction.

Xue Boling heard that Bai Chongxi agreed to establish an Eighth Route Army Office in Guilin. This matter was wrong. He was worried that Chiang Kai-shek would find out that it would be difficult to deal with it. However, Bai Chongxi emphasized that it was only established an office and had never used any military supplies, so that he would not be too careful. As long as the leader allowed it, the people below were understandable. What's more, Xue Boling worked under Bai Chongxi and would rely on him to support him in the future.

The biggest problem facing the National Revenge Daily is insufficient funds. Comrade Zhou Enlai has agreed to let Xia Yan return to Hong Kong to raise funds, and some justice people are also eager to pay attention to the current situation in China overseas.Zhou Enlai went to Guilin to meet Bai Chongxi and specifically mentioned the reality of shortage of funds. Bai Chongxi was not hesitant to spend hundreds of dollars to fund the resumption of the publication, and invited Zhou Enlai to stay for dinner and enjoy local special operas.

After dinner, Bai Chongxi sent Zhou Enlai away. Next to the car, Li Kenong noticed that someone on the opposite floor frequently took photos of them. This person was sneaky and must not let him succeed.

Episode 6

Li Kenong personally sent Comrade Zhou Enlai into the car and found that the person who was taking the photo upstairs accidentally removed the camera. He quickly walked over and picked up the camera without knowing it and took it away.The person who lost the camera was very frustrated that he could not find anything everywhere. He was from Wang Jingwei and was closely following the contact between Bai Chongxi, the chief of the Guangxi clan, and Zhonggong. This time, the spy who lost the camera began to be more vigilant. They sent people to closely monitor the wine shop and thoroughly understand the identity and origin of the wine shop people.

Li Kenong quickly washed out the photos in the camera and saw that the content of the photos was everyone Bai Chongxi met during the day, and what happened, and his face was taken very clearly.Li Kenong quickly showed the photo to Comrade Zhou Enlai.Zhou Enlai told Li Kenong not to act rashly. Now is a critical period for cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. However, there are many parties within the Kuomintang, and Wang Jingwei and Dai Li are all ready to act and may take actions to undermine cooperation at any time.Comrade Zhou Enlai urged Li Kenong to concentrate on doing things. Now they should not only guard against the leftist forces, but also be vigilant against the rightist.

In the evening, Bai Chongxi invited Zhou Enlai and well-known scholars and writers in the literary and artistic circles to watch the show. The War of Resistance Against Japan was approaching, and everyone was worried, but the content of Gui Opera was still limited to the content of men and women's love. The audience could not bear to watch it anymore. The country was divided and there was no intention to watch it. Most of the audience left one after another.

Bai Chongxi also felt that the content of asking everyone to watch the show was vulgar, so he sent Zhou Enlai back halfway. He was sorry for not entertaining everyone this time. Zhou Enlai affirmed the actor's singing skills and the style of the Guangxi style, but it would be better if the subject matter and content could keep pace with the times.

The troupe's headmaster saw that today's scene was just beginning and began to punish the two actors heavily. The day after tomorrow, the audience of the night came in. The scholar wearing glasses stopped the classmaster's punishment and reminded him that the reason for the scene was not because of the actor's performance, but because the classmaster did not reform.The headmaster suddenly heard that it made sense and put down the stick in his hand.

The scholar left the opera troupe, and the female actor Xiao Jinfeng hurried over from behind to ask how to reform. The scholar recommended Ouyang Yuqian to her, saying that this person could improve the opera theme for them.

The Japanese anti-war alliances Lu Diyi and Ikeda Akiko came to Guilin with secrets. Comrade Zhou Enlai arranged for Li Kenong to provide special protection for the two. One day, Li Kenong received a call and heard that the two were targeted by the Japanese and puppet troops, so he immediately deployed a secret transfer operation and sent a couple away under the enemy's nose.

Ren Suning came to Guilin and the enemy's explosion plane bombed again. Ren Suning joined the medical rescue team to help the doctors clean and bandage the wounded. While bandaging the wounded, she met her lover Han Dayong a few years ago. Han Dayong kept carrying the wounded with people, and his figure was still as tall and heroic as when he first met.After experiencing so many things in the past few years, I thought I would never see my lover again in this life. Ren Suning's eyes turned red.

Han Dayong also discovered Ren Suning. During the gap between delivering the wounded, he sat next to Ren Suning's stool and told her that a few days ago, when they went to Nanjing for rescue, they had passed Ren Suning's home and found that it had become ruins. Fortunately, they could still meet them.After a brief chat, Ren Suning also wanted to follow Han Dayong to kill the enemy.Han Dayong was helpless. There were no lesbians in the army now, and there was no such regulation. He asked Ren Suning to live well, and only by living can there be hope.When parting, Ren Suning prayed that his lover could go back after the war alive, and she also understood that perhaps this separation was separation from life and death.

After discussing, Ren Suning's companions decided to go to the military registration medical team, and she followed her, but she didn't expect that when she signed up, she recognized Han Dayong who was training the troops at a glance.

Episode 7

Ren Suning saw that the military seal on Han Dayong seemed to have been promoted several levels, and he really did not disappoint his expectations. The lover became the battalion commander, which meant more efforts and sacrifices. Han Dayong turned around and saw Ren Suning. When the lovers met, their eyes quickly turned red. Han Dayong told Ren Suning that the troops would soon continue to go to the front line, and perhaps this was their last meeting.There was no hug or kiss, but each other's eyes were full of sincerity and blessings.

Nowadays, Japan often comes to bomb Guilin. The Japanese promote the prosperity of East Asia in newspapers. The streets are bustling with people. In the war, all supplies are scarce. Ren Suning went to several shops to buy some paper and pens, but found that there were no one selling paper.At this moment, she saw a familiar figure in the crowd on the street. The gentleman was named Ai Wu. Ren Suning had a relationship with him. Seeing a thick stack of paper in his hand, she mustered up the courage to ask for some paper.

This newspaper is equally important to Ai Wu. Hearing Ren Suning's manuscript paper record the real history of the Nanjing Massacre and exposes the lie that Japan promotes to co-prosperate East Asia, he gave all the manuscript papers to Ren Suning, and encouraged Ren Suning to record them well and strive to be worthy of these manuscript papers.

Picking up the pen, Ren Suning re-recorded the indelible nightmare he experienced in Nanjing. The first draft was damaged during the escape. So now she will start writing again, using the perspective of an eyewitness to record the heinous crimes committed by Japan in China.

An alarm came from the streets of Guilin. Japanese enemy planes were lingering in every street and alley in the city. Bombs rush down, houses became ruins, people fled everywhere, adults picked up their children to go to the cave, and the explosion sounded around them. Parents used their bodies to protect their children's lives, or none of them survived. The war was cruel, but the National Government ignored these atrocities, which brought great psychological harm to the people and was deeply disappointed with the government.

Government officials were also trying to give the public some hope, but they even held a loudspeaker and said a few radical words rather pale and powerless. At this time, Tao Xingzhi came and told local officials that students and children could perform programs on the streets.When avoiding bombing in the cave, everyone's face was covered with sorrow, but the children opened the textbook and carefully recorded the knowledge when they listened to the teacher's lecture. The clouds on their faces gradually dissipated, as if they had seen a ray of eyes.Children are the hope of a generation and the future of the motherland.

Zhang Shu has been creating day by day these days. The alarm sounded on the street, and his wife immediately fled to the cave with her two children. The family had three children, so his wife asked Zhang Shu to take another child away quickly.However, Zhang Shu delayed some time in order to complete the last few lyrics and finally completed the manuscript. He pushed open the door and the enemy plane bombed him to the door. Zhang Shu died in the ruins with his young daughter in his arms.

Countless ethnic groups rushed over after hearing the news and saw the bodies of the martyrs, each of them burst into tears.Comrade Zhou Enlai, who was in Chongqing, was deeply regretful when he heard about Zhang Shu's incident. At the same time, he also focused on arranging the work of Zhang Shu's family. Zhou Enlai personally went to Guilin to comfort Zhang Shu's widow and two young children.

Episode 8

In Chongqing, Zhou Enlai received Zhang Shu's family. Zhou Enlai felt very uncomfortable when he saw the two young children. He reassured his family that Zhang Shu's sacrifice was not only because she lost a good husband, but also because the whole party lost a good party member, and the country lost a good writer. Comrade Zhou Enlai arranged for Zhang Shu's family to go to Yan'an, and the whole party would raise the two children together in the future.In the dark and white terrifying era, the Party is still concerned about the lives of the martyrs' families, making the victims' hearts warm.

A month later, in Guilin, Guo Moruo was preparing to host an international Counter-Terrorism Initiative. Regarding the list of participants, Li Kenong immediately recommended Ren Suning, a witness who wrote an article on the Nanjing Massacre.The newspaper sent an invitation letter to Ren Suning. Ren Suning was very excited, letting the people of the whole country know the shamelessness and atrocities of the Japanese, and swearing to the world to expel the Japanese Tartars.

The spy organization on Dai Li's side held a different attitude when he heard that Guo Moruo had handled the anti-Japanese and anti-terrorism initiative. Some people suggested messing up the venue, but they were also worried about being pursued and losing face. The meeting was finally held safely and smoothly. When Ren Suning told his personal experiences in tears at the meeting, everyone was filled with righteous indignation. It was really outrageous that 300,000 Chinese compatriots were killed. At the meeting, everyone was filled with righteous indignation and shouted slogans to beat Japanese imperialism.

During this period, Guilin is studying the Guangxi Construction Research Association. Regarding the composition of this research association, China and the Party and the country are fighting for the initiative. If the Party and the country want to install some of their own people, they let local Guilin officials be the principals. Regarding the choice of deputy, the Party and the country won Yang Dongyu.Yang Dongyu was originally a non-party member of the G Party in the early days, and was a writer. He had been a principal before and had rich educational experience. He also applied to fight against the invaders on the front line, and had a firm belief and patriotic enthusiasm. Comrade Zhou Enlai thought carefully and thought that he could help him join the Guangxi Construction Research Association, so he personally met Yang Dongyu and had an in-depth chat with him.

Soon, Huang Xuchu, a local official in Guilin, received an appointment to become the president of the Guangxi Construction Research Association. Huang Xuchu also attached great importance to other members and tried to find candidates that superiors liked or trusted.He entrusted Secretary Xie, who was beside Bai Chongxi, hoping that Secretary Xie would also give him a list of trustworthy candidates.

According to the advice given by Comrade Zhou Enlai, Yang Dongyu rushed from Changsha to Guilin. Li Kenong personally went to pick him up, told him about the protection personnel in the rear, and told him about the contact location for a critical period - No. 138, Guibei Road.

Secretary Xie recommended a candidate to Huang Xuchu, saying that Bai Chongxi had a good impression of this person and highly praised the other party for not only having high cultural level, but also having great educational experience.Huang Xuchu didn't know Yang Dongyu recommended by Secretary Xie. As a cunning fox, Huang Xuchu wanted to meet Yang Dongyu in person, and Secretary Xie agreed.

Episode 9

Huang Xuchu was neutral about the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. He heard that Secretary Xie strongly recommended Yang Dongyu to him, and promised to help him investigate Yang Dongyu's background three days ago. Then he heard that he wanted to meet Yang Dongyu, the other party soon came to Guilin and could see him at any time.

This coincidence made Huang Xuchu more cautious. He wanted to meet this person in person. After saying that, he quickly hung up Director Xie's phone number and heard that Tao Xingzhi was also staying in that hotel, he immediately got up.Huang Xuchu did not go to Yang Dongyu's room directly, but went directly to find Tao Xingzhi and asked about Yang Dongyu indirectly.

As a result, in Tao Xingzhi's room, Huang Xuchu met Yang Dongyu directly. Tao Xingzhi deliberately pretended to say that he missed Yang Dongyu very much these days, so he called him to come.It seems that Huang Xuchu was relieved not because he was waiting here on purpose. Then Tao Xingzhi talked about foreign literature. This book was deeply loved and praised by Huang Xuchu. When he heard that the only translator of this book was Yang Dongyu, Huang Xuchu admired him even more. With the blessing of the halo and the fuel to Tao Xingzhi, Huang Xuchu quickly dispelled all his concerns and directly announced that Yang Dongyu would be the director of the Guangxi Construction Research Association.

The stable procedures in the rear have been established. Now the team that has been preparing for the National Saving Daily is ready. Soon, the National Saving Daily began to re-issue. When a large number of National Saving Daily shouted out from the mouths of street newspaper boys, many people paid for a newspaper.At this time, the underground organization of the Guangxi clan also received news and began to report information to the rear of the Guangxi clan: Since Bai Chongxi and Zhou Enlai met, the Guilin Office of the Eighth Route Army began to transport a large amount of national salvation materials, and the National Saving Daily quickly reprinted it, which was abnormal.

During the review of the manuscript, Xia Yan found an article about - I Love This Land - with full patriotic and affectionate articles. I saw that the author's pen name is Ai Qing and his real name is Wang Luyan. Someone recommended this person to Xia Yan before. The work is very distinctive. The author has a strong sense of self-esteem, half of which is self-confidence and half of inferiority.The first time I came to contribute, although the article was a bit subjective, in order not to hurt the author's enthusiasm, Xia Yan still opposed the public opinion and directly published the article and personally sent the manuscript fee.

At that time, few newspapers could pay the author's manuscript fee. Wang Luyan was very excited to get the manuscript fee. The next day, he gave the novel that he had written 70,000 words to the newspaper. At that time, Xia Yan spent a morning studying it carefully and found that it was not the article they needed.Several editors from the newspaper began to discuss how to make suggestions for revisions with the author in a tactful way without hurting the author's enthusiasm and self-esteem.

Just as everyone was discussing this article, Wang Luyan happened to come downstairs and heard everyone's discussion on the stairs. An editor commented that he was working behind closed doors, hiding in the room and thinking about it without going deep into reality, and walking to the people.Wang Luyan was about to turn around and leave when suddenly an editor who walked to the stairs found Wang Luyan and had to follow him upstairs again.

Upstairs, Wang Luyan had a heated discussion with the editor. In the opinion of the editor, Wang Luyan's articles are still immersed in the gentle hometown of literature, lying in the world in his imagination, unable to extricate himself. I hope the author can see the reality clearly and write more stories with a modern background.However, Wang Luyan insisted that his literary proposition was correct, that war was the matter of the country and the army. Now they were always ready to enrich the lives of the people after the war with excellent literary reserves.Both sides held their own opinions and no one was willing to compromise. Finally, the editor reminded him without hesitation, why was this article not published yet many years ago?Wang Luyan's self-esteem was frustrated and left angrily.

Xia Yan did not stop the dispute between the two just now, and it was also to awaken Wang Luyan. Then he found Ba Jin, a tycoon in the literary world. This Ba Jin was young and promising, and could solve his life problems by relying solely on royalties.When Ba Jin heard what Xia Yan said, he went to Wang Luyan's house that night. Both of them were literati and felt a sense of mutual appreciation. Seeing that Wang Luyan's family was barely left, Ba Jin quietly put all the money in his pocket under the bowl.

Ba Jin and Wang Luyan went out to spread the word. They discussed literature. Ba Jin used his writing experience to tell Wang Luyan that literature can only bloom in the soil of contemporary reality to empathize readers, otherwise they will lose the soil for survival.This sentence suddenly opened Wang Luyan, who had been struggling for a long time, and he immediately understood the cheats of his writing.

Ren Suning was worried when she heard that her lover was going to the front line. Inadvertently, Xia Yan got news from her and quickly reported to Li Kenong. Perhaps they could give this army a huge sturdy ceremony, which was the best anti-Japanese propaganda.Li Kenong agreed with Xia Yan's suggestion very much and asked him to handle the matter immediately.

Episode 10

The 170th Division was about to start fighting against Japan soon. The editor-in-chief of the National Salvation Daily advocated a sporting ceremony. After making this decision, everyone began to prepare for the parade spontaneously. The two editors also personally invited well-known scholars and patriots living nearby, and Wang Luyan was also on the invitation list.

On that day, tens of thousands of people saw off for the troops. Everyone held small flags of anti-Japanese war and eye-catching propaganda slogans. Countless students spontaneously organized themselves to take to the streets and began to sing the marches of the Volunteers. The scene was very spectacular. Every soldier in the army understood the mission on his shoulders and secretly vowed to drive the Japanese invaders out of China.

The great momentum of the Communist Party D organization also greatly shocked the core strength of the National Party. Bai Chongxi also wanted to follow the troops to the front line. Before leaving, he specifically talked with local officials Huang Xuchu, asking him to maintain the stability of the people in the rear. Bai Chongxi had a lot of secret news, and knew that the attitude above was shaking. Now his troops have already gone to the front line. If they get the news of peace that day, they will be the first to sacrifice.Bai Chongxi told Huang Xuchu that it would be better to establish good relations with the local political alliance. Now the political alliance is more cultural in the outside world and actively win over some progressive literati. If Guilin is captured, they can remain neutral and become independent like the Northeast.

At the time of national crisis, some party and state officials are still considering their own way of retreat, but they do not have a firm determination to resist Japan, which is indeed outrageous.The newspaper's printing volume expanded and needed more right-hand assistants. The newspaper sent an invitation letter to Ren Suning, asking her if she would stay and be a front-line reporter in the editorial department.Of course Ren Suning was willing. After hearing this news, she was so excited that she burst into tears. Being a war reporter used the pen in her hand to accuse Japanese atrocities. It was her lifelong dream to call on the Chinese people to expel the Tartars together.

Ren Suning went to invite Ai Wu to join. The writer Ai Wu's home is in a remote mountain village and usually writes at home. His wife strives for some household income. When he heard Ren Suning's invitation, Ai Wu decided to overcome his personal life problems and follow her to work in the editorial department. Now the editorial department is very busy and has no salary. Those who stay at work are silently dedicated to the respectable warriors.

Ai Wu was about to pack his luggage when suddenly the sound of a plane came from the sky. At first, Ai Wu felt that this was the countryside and the bombers should not go deep into remote areas. Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of bombing around him. It seemed that Japanese enemy planes also entered the mountain village. A large number of residential buildings around him collapsed, countless people were injured and killed. The streets were messy, only crying and crying for help.Ren Suning got up from the ground and witnessed with his own eyes that a harmonious and peaceful villa had just become a purgatory on earth for a moment. She anxiously searched for Ai Wu. Fortunately, Comrade Ai Wu was not injured. After he struggled to get up from the ground, he immediately went to find his wife regardless of the danger of being bombed to death.

Some of the newspaper's printing machines and equipment were seriously damaged during the bombing. I don't know how many more bombings will be. After careful consideration, the leadership decided to move the magazine to the cave and then actively raise funds to resume publication.

Episode 11

Xia Yan wrote a very excellent script. Guo Moruo saw the script and felt it was very good. Taking advantage of the current financial difficulties of the newspaper, he wanted to return to Guangxi and put the script on the screen as soon as possible, so that he could raise more funds at that time.Li Kenong heard Xia Yan's suggestions and felt that it was very feasible. At that time, they could also develop some patriots to go to the front line to fight against Japan.

With Zhonggong's unremitting efforts, Yang Dongyu finally became the director of education in Guilin, Guangxi. After taking office, he made drastic reforms to education. He first appointed Tao Xingzhi and others as the presidents of local universities and handled many schools. For a time, the people's hearts gathered and cultural activities were very rich.Ren Suning usually goes to schools and streets to conduct interviews to watch the people of Guangxi gradually restore their homes and continue to fight against Japan.

Huang Xuchu was also very conscious of the times. When Bai Chongxi rushed to the front line, he also caused many things in the rear, which did not bring resistance to China G's actions for the time being. At that time, Bai Chongxi's words to Huang Xuchu were remembered by him before leaving, and he was afraid that there would be changes from above and that he would have no place to stand.

Guo Moruo encouraged Xia Yan to help the crew put the script into a play as soon as possible. Now they have decided to bring this patriotic drama to the screen and major stages to perform in Chongqing and Guilin.In order to lay the groundwork, Secretary Xie secretly gave Huang Xuchu a little bit of annoyance. At that time, Huang Xuchu was still a little hesitant about the performance of the drama, but Secretary Xie had already expected this and came up with a list in advance. This was a list of performance committees, which contained thirty or forty local cultural celebrities. When Huang Xuchu saw that they were all celebrities in the Cultural Bureau and the Guangxi Military Commission agreed, he did not hesitate at the time and directly expressed his strong cooperation.

After having a play, I have to find an actor. After Comrade Zhou Enlai saw the script, he decided to ask An E to find the crew to help coordinate actors from all over the world to participate in the performance and solve some difficult problems in the crew. After Comrade An E received the task, she immediately set off from Changsha.

Comrade An'e encountered an accident on the dock. The Japanese controlled the dock and needed to check the documents of each passenger on board. An'e did not have a pass yet. She had made an appointment to pick someone up on the boat, but the connector has not been found yet.An E was very anxious and was about to show her ID. At this moment, a woman handed the child in her arms to her and then stuffed the pass in her hand into An E's hand.

An E held the child and showed her pass to the Japanese military police. A Japanese chief suspected her. Seeing that An E was dressed very noble, but the child in her arms was sloppy, she began to stop An E and interrogate her. At this time, the woman who gave An E the pass was calm and stood up to explain that An E was just helping her hold the child.The Japanese refused to believe that they were mother and son, and asked the child to call her mother. The child always didn't speak, so the Japanese pointed all the guns at them. Finally, the child called out his mother. The Japanese military police released it, and the stone in An E's heart fell to the ground.

An E arrived at the crew and met the director and the performers, and told everyone the importance of this comedy. The director received news temporarily that an actor named Qin had already agreed to was taken away by the Japanese Major. This Japanese Major is famous for being cruel, and the actor named Qin was likely to encounter danger.

In the Japanese Gendarmerie Ministry, the actor surnamed Qin was controlled in the office. The Japanese invited her to star in the comedy of Central Asia. Of course, the actor surnamed Qin refused to agree. Seeing the Japanese being angry, the actor surnamed Qin felt that it was very likely that he would not go out alive today.

Episode 12

The actor surnamed Qin has clearly stated that he does not like their scripts and is not interested in acting, but the Japanese soldiers no longer allow her to make any disobedient statements and directly coerce her to accompany the Japanese chief.

The Japanese upper class had a good impression of the actor surnamed Qin, so she asked her to accompany her to watch movies in the cinema.At that time, many reporters went to take photos of many actors surnamed Qin. At this moment, a fan approached the actor surnamed Qin and suggested that she go to the bathroom now.In the bathroom, An E took several comrades to rescue the actor surnamed Qin under the noses of the Japanese soldiers, and took a boat to Changsha overnight. She met with several comrades participating in the performance in Guilin. After learning about the script to be performed, she went to Guilin with other actors.

The actors have all been in place, so it is time to ask the director to guide him. After careful decision, I chose the local director Ouyang Yuqian and the drama doctor Jiao Juyin who had just returned to China from abroad.The two great directors met for the first time, and there was a serious disagreement at the meeting. Jiao Juyin did not want to be an actor based on the drama team, nor did he need to play a supporting role. He wanted to use a brand new camp to perform.Neither of these two major directors convinced each other.Xia Yan was embarrassed on the side. Although the first meeting ended unhappily, Xia Yan still felt that Jiao Juyin had profound attainments in drama.

Xia Yan went to Li Kenong for advice. Li Kenong never wanted to replace Director Jiao, but let Xia Yan learn Comrade Zhou Enlai's mediation skills. Both major directors have rich experience and attainments, which can bring new experiences and rich learning opportunities to the crew.Li Kenong's words made Xia Yan's spear suddenly open. When he heard Li Kenong's suggestion that Guilin local official Huang Xuchu would come to give the other party a chance to build a team, Huang Xuchu was very cautious in his actions, and Xia Yan thought of Secretary Xie.

After careful consideration, Secretary Xie personally called Huang Xuchu and told Huang Xuchu that his superior leader Bai Chongxi attached great importance to this drama because he had no time to go back to Guilin every day, so that Huang Xuchu would fulfill his friendship with the landlord.Huang Xuchu obeyed Bai Chongxi's words. Since Bai Chongxi had spoken, he immediately did it.

In the evening, Huang Xuchu invited a dinner for a famous literary scholar in Guilin. Xu Beihong also came and personally gave one of his paintings to Huang Xuchu. It was a rooster crowing. A rooster stood proudly on the top of the mountain and sang. The sun slowly rose and the sun shone on the earth.Huang Xuchu was very moved, so he raised his glass to thank the literary scholars in Guilin for adding glory to the local literary circle.

The Volunteer March made by Tian Han was very successful, and this song began to be praised overseas. American journalist Ai went to most of the earth to China in this life, went to see Tian Han himself, and took precious photos to wait on the title page of the US Times to convey the anti-war calls all over the world.

Episode 13

Chinese songs have become famous abroad, and everyone is very excited. Xia Yan asked Tian Han to say a few words to everyone. Now that China and Japan are at war, the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, Tian Han is mixed with emotion. He can't help but sing the March of the Uprising War with everyone again, and shouts patriotic enthusiasm with the songs. The scene is very touching.

The troops fought the Japanese on the front line, and at the rear of the front line, literary and artistic workers created more works to inspire everyone. More and more people joined the Anti-Japanese War team and enriched their anti-Japanese forces.Overseas Chinese have also contributed a lot of patriotism and enthusiasm and donated a lot of anti-Japanese war materials and medicines to the frontlines. No matter where they are, the Chinese people have a sincere patriotism.

The cultural atmosphere in Guilin is very strong, and people are rushing to circulate progressive books and newspapers. For a time, many bookstores were opened on the streets and alleys. The bookstore owner began to go to the warlord department, hoping that the warlord department could intervene in the rectification and only support his family. Now the atmosphere of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in Guilin is very strong, and the warlords dare not act rashly. The bookstore owner was angry and had to go back in shame.

The newspaper printing factory opened by the CPC Party in Guangzhou was sealed. Li Kenong felt that something was going to change. Xia Yan came to report that overseas compatriots had raised funds and added new printing equipment and materials. Whether to increase printing of newspapers and magazines should be increased by large-scale projects? Li Kenong carefully considered it and asked Xia Yan to make preparations for both hands. On the one hand, he tried to transport the equipment safely back, and on the other hand, he paid close attention to the safety of newspaper staff. When encountering emergencies, he immediately opened an emergency plan.The special W organization in Guilin reported the situation to the online market and asked about the next plan. The callback received was “ and do not act ”. Although the special W was anxious, it did not dare to act rashly, which gave us a lot of preparation time.

In Changsha, the situation was very tight. Just after the newspaper was seized, our party quickly found credible personnel to help transfer the newspaper's printing equipment. Li Kenong found Director Guo Moruo. At that time, Guo Moruo had an official position in the government. Fortunately, the procedures for submitting the application were completed in advance. At that time, the warlords were about to come to seal the printing equipment. Seeing that the above consent was agreed, they no longer dared to say anything.

The warlords here just released the car, and the truck came to the control card with a pass. Unexpectedly, there was a direct stop of the military vehicle, saying that Shangfeng called to intercept the vehicles equipped with the printing press.The driver pretended to get off the car reluctantly, and then ordered people to open the rear compartment. Several soldiers rushed over with guns and were about to move things, but they saw that there were food and other supplies inside, and there was no printing equipment.The enemy was very frustrated, and our comrades also looked indifferent. When the vehicle passed the checkpoint, our comrades quickly asked the carriage transporting the forage to unload the printing equipment and send it to the truck to quickly transfer it.The soldiers were impressed by the leader's cleverness, thanks to Li Kenong's guidance.

Wang Luyan went deep into life and began to have a deeper understanding of writing. Previously, Ba Jin told him that literature must be alive in the context of contemporary society, and that literature can only bloom with soil. After some observation, Wang Luyan finally found a way out. The subsequent works were real and touching. After reviewing, the newspaper passed the unanimous vote. He also hoped that Wang Luyan would submit more articles to the newspaper in the future.

Sun Yu had worked next to Guo Moruo before. This time he came to Guilin and was preparing to set up a magazine in Guilin. Comrade Xia Yan received Sun Yu's application and would naturally ask Guo Moruo's opinions. Sun Yu said that he had gone to ask Guo Moruo for his opinions before leaving. Guo Moruo heard that Sun Yu was going to Yan'an to be a war reporter and suggested that he return to Guilin because the propaganda power in Yan'an is very strong, but the Kuomintang-controlled area is relatively weak. He suggested that Sun Yu go to Guilin to run a magazine, and the environment there is safer now.With Guo Moruo as the host, Comrade Xia Yan agreed readily.

The drama also entered the tense rehearsal. Director Jiao Juyin helped the actors analyze the plot and interpret the plot in a more down-to-earth way. The growth process of the characters in the drama empathize with the growth process of the minds of the characters. The actors received new interpretation styles and techniques for the first time. Everyone was eager to try it out and must perform this drama well.

Episode 14

Jiao Juyin accurately analyzed the psychological activities and subtext of each character in the script, bringing each actor quickly into the plot. The performance scene was very touching.When Li Kenong heard that there were some extras missing in the drama, he immediately organized some soldiers who had no tasks for the time being to help with extras.

To solve the problem of group performances, from a comprehensive stage effect point of view, the background is too monotonous and cannot well set off the environment and atmosphere of the characters. As a rigorous professor, Jiao Juyin cannot stand it. Although he reported this problem to the organization, the organization's funds are very scarce and there is no extra money at all.Jiao Juyin couldn't be particular. At this time, Xia Yan came with several famous painters and artists, including Mr. Feng Zikai, Ye Qianyu, and Zhang Leping, art masters. These masters took the initiative to help and did not accept any money. Xia Yan introduced these gentlemen to Jiao Juyin. The two parties communicated about the artistic effects they wanted to present, and soon the background effects of the drama were created.

After a year of careful preparation, the play was finally successfully staged. On the day of the premiere, not as many people came to buy tickets as expected. Xia Yan was very nervous, worried that so many preparations would disappoint everyone.Li Kenong encouraged him not to lose heart. The play is not just performed once. As long as it can encourage the people's will to fight, it will be considered a success.

No one expected that the first performance would cause a sensation. It was the first time for the audience to see such a good stage effect, and the story of the performance was real and touching, and very relevant to real life. Many people shed tears of excitement, and the word-of-mouth effect should not be underestimated. Audiences who had watched the drama spoke highly of the drama. Afterwards, more and more people bought tickets to watch the performance, and a considerable number of people wanted to relive it.

Xia Yan invited everyone who had worked hard to participate in the performance to have a dinner together. He went to invite director Jiao Juyin, but director Jiao Juyin refused to team up, saying that although the play performed smoothly, Xia Yan did not do a good job in publicity, resulting in a dismal box office.After all, Jiao Juyin still did not participate in the team building, and Xia Yan also deeply reflected on himself. Indeed, before the performance, he did not invite local literati and scholars to participate in the publicity. For this reason, he began to do some remedial work.

Comrade Zhou Enlai from Chongqing sent a congratulatory message, congratulating them on the success of the first performance. He also said that two days later, Guilin and Chongqing would sell tickets at the same time and perform again, which gave everyone great confidence. During the second performance, Bai Chongxi came, bringing local officials and many literati. The crowd spread the excitement of the play. The box office was full that day, and many platform tickets were sold. Xia Yan excitedly reported the news to Jiao Juyin, and the two creators hugged each other excitedly.

After the performance, the audience spontaneously applauded and the applause lasted for a long time. This has never been seen in the history of Chinese drama. It showed sincere gratitude and praise to the crew. It also recorded this glorious chapter in the history of the development of Chinese drama. In a flash, it used drama as a weapon to create a great sensation for the people of both places. It wrote a magnificent movement in the history of Chinese drama, promoted patriotism and opened the first chapter of Guilin's cultural feast.

Han Dayong was about to go to the front line. Before leaving, he met Ren Suning. Their eyes were full of tenderness. But now that the country's hatred and family feud are at the forefront, the two young people had to suppress their feelings again.

Episode 15

The last time the newspaper's printing equipment was damaged in the bombing, after preparations by superior leaders, the newspaper's new printing equipment was quickly moved safely. Sun Ling found a sign and wrote the name of the magazine, and then prepared to open in the near future. The magazine's sign saidAfter the sign was put up, an anti-Japanese ally Wataru Shikachi saw it and immediately walked into the magazine and suggested that Sun Ling change the name of the sign. This unit was a lie about the Japanese invasion, and suggested that he not use such a sinful name here.

Sun Ling guessed that he was Japanese, but since he advised him not to use this name, he should be a member of the anti-war alliance. However, the sister-in-law who was cleaning the room heard the other party speaking Japanese. The sister-in-law's brother and father and mother were all killed by the Japanese, so she had sworn hatred for the Japanese. She shouted, catch Little Japan. Sun Ling held the eldest sister to prevent her from making the matter bigger, and then explained to her. Ren Suning happened to pass by, and Sun Ling asked Ren Suning to explain to the sister-in-law.

In the past few days, Ren Suning has been trying to go to the front line to report on the battlefield. Her risk-free behavior has won everyone's respect. Yan'an needs a group of active patriots recently, so the editor-in-chief agreed to let Ren Suning go. When Ren Suning heard that she could go to Yan'an, her eyes became red with excitement, regardless of the danger.Xia Yan was also very moved. Although China is now in devastation, with so many brave people with lofty ideals, China's future will definitely get better and better.

The Japanese military Nakano Weihei heard that Wataru Shikamaru, a member of the anti-war alliance, was in Guilin, and immediately sent a whole team to assassinate Wataru Shikamaru. Li Kenong risked his life to see Wataru Shikamaru. Now the anti-war alliance's voice is getting stronger and stronger, hoping to convene a meeting to make the anti-human behavior of the Japanese invaders public.Lu Tigen was very excited. In the past few days, Japan had been sending people to assassinate the couple. The Communist Party had always sent comrades to help the couple transfer in time. Many comrades were killed while helping them transfer.Li Kenong could only try his best to ensure Lu Digen's safety when he attended the meeting.

When the Japanese anti-war alliance held a meeting, assassins sent by Weihei Nakano carried out assassinations. Fortunately, Comrade Li Kenong had rich experience in counter-assassinations and protected Lu Di Geng's safety in time. On this day, Lu Di Geng's wife Kyoko Ikeda also had a very troubled delivery process. The dystocia made her miserable. Fortunately, the Chinese party sent our comrades to call a doctor in time, and Kyoko Ikeda finally gave birth successfully.After going through many hardships, Lu Digen returned home. When he saw his infant child and his wife safe and sound, he excitedly picked up the child and burst into tears. The child was born in China. He fell more and more in love with China, a great nation, and believed that Japan's plan of aggression would not succeed and would only play with fire and burn itself.

Ren Suning came to Yan'an and found that it was different from what she had imagined. Although the soil in Yan'an was barren, the people here were full of joy, singing and laughing every day. Comrades told her that because the people here were hopeful every day, despite the difficult living conditions, they had high revolutionary fighting spirit.When Ren Suning heard that Yan'an was going to send people to the front line to report on the war situation, she immediately volunteered and went to the front line in person. It was a satisfying thing to witness the defeat of the Japanese. Ren Suning dreamed of avenging her parents.

Episode 16

Ren Suning went to the front line and faced rains of bullets and bloody explosions every day. Countless young lives were casualties in the war. Sometimes there was no time for rescue or no treatment environment at all. It was too cruel for Ren Suning.In one battle, our party defeated two enemy attacks, but the enemy kept counterattacking. In the end, our party even ran out of ammunition. Seeing that the enemy was about to attack, our party members had no choice but to use their bayonets.

Ren Suning and another reporter in the team did not know how to shoot. Seeing so many soldiers killed by enemy shells, Ren Suning burst into tears every day. From the mouths of these injured soldiers, Ren Suning learned more heroic deeds. The numerous crimes committed by the Japanese in China are too numerous to describe. No matter how cruel the war was, every soldier was full of morale and encouraged each other every day to fight back the little Japan.

At that time, Japan's military equipment was very advanced. In addition to artillery shells, they also had bacterial bombs and poison gas bombs. We were heavily injured and the poison gas bombs were very powerful, so our army had to quickly evacuate the wounded.The enemy counterattacked with poison gas bombs. On the one hand, we must resist the enemy's counterattack, and on the other hand, we must overcome the serious damage caused by the poison gas bombs.During the transfer, Ren Suning left her camera behind. After going to a safe place, she found that the camera was gone. She immediately turned back to get the camera. When she was about to run out, the Japanese had already rushed into the yard.

Ren Suning hid behind the door. She found a pair of medical scissors and was ready to die at any time. Fortunately, our army discovered that Ren Suning was missing and immediately returned to repel the Japanese in the yard.Ren Suning recorded the real situation on the front line every day in the battlefield. The Japanese's private use of poison gas bombs violated international conventions. Moreover, the Chinese soldiers were not afraid of hardships and had a rock-solid ambition to regard death as home. They would surely win the final victory.

Countless people read the news about the front line in newspapers and hated the Japanese invasion. Now a small island country has invaded most of China. It is really outrageous.Our army began to look for anti-Japanese strategies, and at the same time chose cultural anti-Japanese resistance. In Guilin, revolutionary warriors such as Li Kenong and An'e received tasks from their superiors and geared up to resist the Japanese on the front lines and to send a steady stream of anti-Japanese forces to the rear to establish an anti-Japanese united front.

Ren Suning came back from the front line, bringing precious video materials and completing the task brilliantly. When she returned to Guilin, Li Kenong asked her to tell everyone the story of the front line.Ren Suning brought the revolutionary beliefs he learned from Yan'an, including the sacrifices made by frontline soldiers to drive out the Japanese invaders. Every audience present was inspired and full of hope.

The Central Military Commission in Guilin wanted to establish an association of literary and artistic circles to resist the enemy. Liu Hancao's true identity was from Dai's side, but he had been lurking in Guangxi for a long time without any appointment. He was full of complaints. He neither opposed nor supported the association of literary and artistic circles to resist the enemy.Secretary Xie who was next to Bai Chongxi felt that Liu Hancao could be used by our party, so he quietly included him in the list of candidates for the association.

Episode 17

The leader of the secret service organization around Dai Li wanted to test Liu Hancao and invited him to tea late at night. The secret service leader kept testing each other, but both of them were cunning old men. Liu Hancao's response was even more impeccable. The secret service leader found nothing and could not figure out the other party's details.

Now Shangfeng has been reminding the lurking personnel below to stay still, and the lurking remnants do not dare to act rashly. On the one hand, they also have a negative attitude towards the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, as if the fuse of rebellion may be ignited at any time. Li Kenong is aware of this, so that the unified line of Kuomintang and Communist Party cooperation and Guilin's cultural anti-Japanese will not be affected. He suggested that Xia Yan put the heroic events of the Communist Party on the anti-Japanese front in the middle page, and make it less likely to be too publicized.Xia Yan learned the real situation and expressed his utmost cooperation. Regarding the report written by Ren Suning on the front line, only one article was published in each issue of the magazine.

How to establish the Anti-Enemy Association of the literary and artistic circles in Guilin? We carefully selected the members of the association. Li Kenong provided several important candidates, including advanced scholars Li Renren, Zhou Libo, Xia Yan, Wang Luyan, etc. The Anti-Enemy Association is a very sensitive word. Liu Hancao was once a representative of the Guilin faction and was also included in the list of the association.

At the establishment meeting of the Anti-Enemy Association, Wang Luyan became the chairman of the standing committee. Zhou Libo came to Guilin all the way. Ren Suning went to the station to pick him up in person. Ai Wu was also here. Both of them were literary lovers and writers. They both had topics to talk about. The two went out to eat, and Ai Wu also invited Wang Luyan.When the three met, everyone was very excited. Soon it would be the third anniversary of Mr. Lu Xun's death. Wang Luyan once said that he was deeply influenced by Mr. Lu Xun when he embarked on the path of writing. They hit it off and planned to organize this commemorative event in the name of the association.

In this commemoration event, Wang Luyan wrote the profound meaning of Mr. Lu Xun's famous words in the form of cartoons, explaining the profound meaning in a simple and simple way, which is refreshing. By recalling Mr. Lu Xun, he inspired the masses' anti-Japanese enthusiasm and the strong idea of ​​safeguarding the reunification of the motherland.On that day, Wang Luyan led everyone to recite Mr. Lu Xun's article - From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Bookstore - which wrote about the peaceful rural life and the harmonious and peaceful environment of the years. Everyone was very excited.

Dai Li's lurking spy organization also went to the commemoration event, but they didn't catch any evidence at all. During this sensitive period, our country's patriots bypassed sensitive words and selected unobjectionable verses, leaving them no chance to take advantage of it. Even the spy leader couldn't catch up when he recalled this incident.

Over in Chongqing, Comrade Zhou Enlai was also very concerned about the situation in Guangxi. Director Jin Shan came to Guangxi with a new play called "The Battle of Taierzhuang". The play was of profound significance and he hoped it could be performed in public. He also asked Li Kenong to arrange this.

Secretary Xie next to Bai Chongxi was notified to do a good job for local officials. These officials all looked up to Bai Chongxi. When they heard that it was a play that the leader attached great importance to, they immediately said that they would handle it well.

Episode 18

The play directed and performed by the Communist Party - within a year - was a big hit once it was performed. The Kuomintang also launched a drama - The Battle of Taierzhuang. The Battle of Taierzhuang was an open victory of the Kuomintang against Japan, and it also had certain commemorative significance. Li Kenong asked Xia Yan and others to notify local literati to help promote the play and encourage the Kuomintang to build up confidence in resisting Japan.

Since the establishment of the United Front, Chiang Kai-shek has been protecting his sharp troops, only allowing some soldiers with weak combat effectiveness to go to the front line to resist the Japanese, and the rescue was not timely, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction within the Kuomintang and a lot of rifts between the troops.Ren Suning interviewed the Kuomintang official Lu Zhenming. He was a hard-blooded man who was unwilling to be interviewed. Ren Suning asked the reason in confusion, only to find out that he went out to fight without telling his wife. When he first came to this position to fight, there were more than 800 soldiers, but now there are only more than 80 left. They have been guarding the battlefield for more than ten days. Today is the last day. Lu Zhenming knows that the enemy will definitely launch a bigger counterattack. There are only a few soldiers around him, and it is likely that all of them will be killed.

Lu Zhenming does not consider himself a hero. On the contrary, those comrades who sacrificed their lives are the real heroes, and many soldiers did not even leave their names. Also, Lu Zhenming was an orphan. He married into his father-in-law's house, but his father-in-law and brother-in-law were both killed by Japanese artillery shells.Ren Suning was just about to ask where his wife was, when the enemy was about to pounce. Lu Zhenming immediately led the soldiers to fight, and soon died heroically in the trench.This army single-handedly resisted the enemy for more than ten days, covered the evacuation of the entire village, and bought valuable time for the rear troops.

After returning home, Ren Suning wrote down the scenes of the Anti-Japanese War that he personally experienced. The entire report was deeply touching, and at the same time called on the people to resist the Japanese bravely. Guilin local official Huang Xuchu was also moved when he saw the report. The battle on the front line was cruel and regrettable. The entire report called for the Chinese nation to unite to resist the Japanese, without any narrow or biased political stance.

Li Kenong took Xia Yan and Ren Suning to meet with Ye Ting, the fourth chief of staff of the New Fourth Army. Ye Ting was a general with rich combat experience. However, this general had no choice but to resign to the party-state several times. Chiang Kai-shek's passive anti-Japanese and active anti-G actions made him disdainful. Ye Ting told Ren Suning without concealment that Chiang Kai-shek deliberately divided his army into small camps so that they could be weakened and quickly destroyed in the war against Japan.

《National Salvation Daily》actively reported on the frontline war. For a time, paper in Luoyang was expensive, and many people used newspapers as spiritual food. This also made some puppet troops of the Guangxi clique ready to move. The spy leader specially called Liu Hancao from the Political Society and beat him several times not to let the G Party take over.Knowing the local public opinion position, Liu Hancao assessed the situation. Now that the anti-Japanese situation in Guangxi is at its peak, Bai Chongxi's attitude is also actively anti-Japanese. He will not be so stupid that he openly resists his boss. He just pretends to be coy and says he will find a way.

Wang Luyan usually focused on creation and could not afford to support his three children with his meager royalties. Ba Jin and his fiancée Xiao Shan saw Wang Luyan's wife couldn't afford rice noodles on the street, so they bought more than ten kilograms of rice noodles and gave half of them to her.

Episode 19

Wang Luyan comforted his hungry children at home. Baba waited for his wife to come back early to buy corn. Finally, his wife came back and brought rice noodles. The family happily had a full meal.His wife Qin Ying told her story about her encounter with Mr. Ba Jin today, so that her husband could have the opportunity to visit Mr. Ba Jin and thank him for his gift.

At the door of Mr. Ba Jin's house, Wang Luyan also met Ai Wu. Both of them were writers, and they were very happy to meet here. During the meal, Ba Jin solemnly introduced his fiancée Xiao Shan, and also told how the two met. Xiao Shan was once his loyal reader and later became a student. Now they are close friends and are ready to spend the rest of their lives together.The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, and the piano and the harp are harmonious.During this meeting, Ba Jin also invited Wang Luyan to be the president of his Guilin branch of the cultural life magazine, and asked Wang Luyan's wife Qin Ying to be the financial accountant.This time Wang Luyan's family also has income, and the children no longer need to go hungry.

After careful consideration and observation, the party approved Ren Suning to join the party. This is good news. Ren Suning felt that in the current national crisis, as long as he could resist Japan, it was a good choice.Ba Jin invited Wang Luyan to be the general manager of the branch. Wang Luyan was running business and writing in the bookstore during the day. On this day, a spy leader came and found a new bookstore opened on the street, and many of them were Lu Xun's books. He walked into the bookstore looking for trouble, and asked Wang Luyan why there were so many Lu Xun's books.Wang Luyan didn't know the old man on the other side, so he told the truth that Lu Xun was the vanguard of the national revolution. The spy chief looked very ugly and directly asked who gave him the title. Wang Luyan saw that the other party was not a good person, and immediately said that he would close the house early for cleaning and close the house early.

Once, in a bookstore, Wang Luyan saw a student who loved reading very much. He heard that the student wanted to study abroad and become a useful person like his uncle, and be able to go to the battlefield to kill Japanese soldiers.Wang Luyan was so excited that he gave the other student a book. The student happened to be chatting and talked about a book he had recently read. The content was very good. Wang Luyan saw that the content of the book was written by himself, but he had not finished the book yet. He only handed over the copyright to Guangxi Fujian for serialization and did not publish it in any bookstore. It was obvious that the other party was infringing the copyright.According to the address provided by the reader, Wang Luyan went to check it out in person and found many pirated books, which affected many authors.

Wang Luyan convened a meeting with the writers who had been infringed. Everyone had been suggesting that Wang Luyan should litigate for them and that the costs of the lawsuit should be shared equally.The fact that Wang Luyan took the lead in prosecuting the bookstore owner Wang Wenbin quickly reached Li Kenong. Li Kenong had already found out that the bookstore Wang Wenbin was not important. The actual beneficiary behind the bookstore was actually Wen Yanbai, the director of the Guangxi Literary Society.Wen Yanbai secretly enjoys the dividends from the bookstore. After all, he is the director of the Guangxi Literary Society, so if the lawsuit becomes big, it may not be of any benefit to the cooperation between China and the Communist Party. There are still many spy organizations in Guilin, and there is no guarantee that something dangerous will happen in the future.

Wen Yanbai's interest chain was interrupted, and he took a gold bar to Liu Hancao of the Political Department. At first, Liu Hancao was unmoved and felt that these trivial matters were not worth his actions. Later, when he heard news from the Guangxi clique, the party and state disagreed with the CCP's control of Guangxi's public opinion direction, and immediately changed his mind, and he took the initiative to contact Wen Yanbai.

This time he agreed to help Wen Yanbai, but he needed Wen Yanbai to make the matter bigger and expand the influence of public opinion. Then the Political Department would shut down all bookstores and newspapers related to the Communist Party on the grounds that these newspapers disrupted social order.For this reason, Liu Hancao went to the local judge specifically, hoping that the judge would expand the impact of this case according to his wishes.

When our party got the news, they first went to Wang Luyan, hoping that Wang Luyan could withdraw the case and work hard to reconcile out of court.However, Wang Luyan refused to cooperate. He felt that this was their right and there was no other way. Xia Yan went to Ba Jin and tried to explain the powerful relationship.

Episode 20

Xia Yan and Wang Luyan did not communicate well, so he went to Ba Jin. At first, Ba Jin felt that literati should fight for their own copyrights, which was not wrong. However, Xia Yan carefully analyzed the political interests of this matter. Ba Jin felt that this matter was not just about copyright, so he promised Xia Yan to discuss it with Wang Luyan again.

Ba Jin went to the court to learn about the situation and found that many reporters were gathered around the window of the bulletin board to read the content above. Some reporters were confused and said that this copyright matter was originally very small and had no news value at all. Why are so many people paying attention?Others began to feel indignant and angrily asked the publisher why they published it without asking clearly about the copyright.Seeing that so many reporters were paying attention to this matter, Ba Jin began to feel that the stakes behind Xia Yan's speculation had emerged, so this case was far from a trivial matter. If public opinion was allowed to continue to ferment, it would really affect the cultural victory that had just occurred in Guilin.

Without further ado, Ba Jin quickly went to find Wang Luyan. Wang Luyan usually wrote in the bookstore and didn't even look at the weather outside. Hearing Ba Jin say that many reporters were paying attention to this matter, he felt that it was making a fuss out of a molehill. However, Ba Jin solemnly reminded him that someone was behind this matter, trying to use this case as a weapon to kill the local publishing and printing department in Guilin without anyone noticing.

Wang Luyan was also a patriotic scholar. When he heard the seriousness of the matter, he immediately summoned the original group of scholars and carefully discussed the solution. Under Wang Luyan's explanation, everyone basically raised their hands and agreed to withdraw the lawsuit. However, some people hoped that the illegal publisher Wang Wenbin would publish an apology in the newspaper.As long as the lawsuit was withdrawn, the goal would be achieved. Wang Luyan immediately agreed to everyone's suggestion. He went to Xia Yan personally, hoping that Xia Yan could persuade the bookseller to let him publish an apology in the newspaper.

Wang Luyan was very ashamed when he saw Xia Yan. At first, he drove Xia Yan away without asking any questions. Now he realized that he was out of control. Xia Yan not only didn't care, but also promised to find a way to get the bookseller to apologize.

Xia Yan had rich practical experience. After Wang Luyan left, he came up with a way. He immediately called Ren Suning and told them how to put pressure on unscrupulous publishers.

The unscrupulous publisher was in a depressed mood and was drinking in a small shop. Suddenly a group of reporters came and shined a spotlight on him. They then started to tease that the lawsuit would soon go to court and the publisher would definitely lose. The publisher had just drank and blurted out that he would not lose at all because the Minister of Culture Wen Yanbai also had shares in the bookstore. If the bookstore closed, it would not do any good to the higher authorities.

The reporters quickly recorded the incident. The bookseller realized that he had just said something wrong and was anxious about how to make amends. Then Xia Yan came and comforted the reporters not to be impulsive. After the reporters left, Xia Yan gave the bookseller an idea. As long as he published an apology in the newspaper, just a few words could avert a crisis.The bookseller mainly focuses on making profits, so publishing an apology in the newspaper will not affect his financial interests. In order to get this matter over with quickly, the bookseller agreed without hesitation.

By the next day, newspapers were full of booksellers' public apologies, and Wang Luyan and several other intellectuals who had been infringed went to the court to request the withdrawal of the lawsuit.It was allowed to withdraw the lawsuit before the trial. Although the court had no choice but to agree.This long-planned copyright dispute finally came to an end, and Liu Hancao's plan failed.

Episode 21

The battle in Changsha was not over yet, and a war started in southern Guangxi. The war continued with a steady stream of reserve forces. Ren Suning summoned his friends and roped in many girls to join the front line. In ancient times, there were Huamu Junlan, and today there is the Detachment of Women. These are people who have experienced the Nanjing tragedy and have lofty patriotic sentiments. The army has changed the rule that only male soldiers are allowed, and female comrades can also join the resistance war.

On the day of the expedition, the local government personally presided over it. Huang Xuchu also enthusiastically encouraged them to build up confidence and victory was right in front of them.Editor-in-chief Sun Ling took a group of people and started rushing to the front line.11 I met Han Dayong at the front line. Han Dayong had become the battalion commander. Seeing that Ren Suning had brought many lesbians, he pulled her aside and reminded her of the cruelty of combat. There was no need for so many helpless lesbians. It was not that Ren Suning had not experienced war. She insisted on staying on the front line.

While fighting in the front, signs of passive resistance against Japan quietly emerged in the rear. Han Dayong's team received orders to stick to the position on the front line, regardless of any sacrifices, and could only drive the Japanese out of the position to complete the mission.Frontline reporters witnessed soldiers fighting bravely, and countless young people shed their lives and blood for the anti-Japanese war. They immediately recorded what they saw on the frontline and sent it to newspapers to publish the latest news on the frontline to the whole country.

The information held by the Kuomintang was sometimes inaccurate, which resulted in our army being very passive and the enemy's troops constantly increasing in number. In order to preserve the most elite troops, the Kuomintang repeatedly adopted the method of siege but not attack.Some officials within the party began to wonder, but the people above told them that this was all the chairman's intention, for the sake of more lasting combat effectiveness.

Han Dayong's team experienced a fierce battle. Many people were defending without reinforcements. The superior's order was to resist the last line of defense, so Han Dayong could only accept the order.When I saw Suning on the ground, I felt heartbroken and a little confused about the uncertain future. Going into battle to kill the enemy was a soldier's job. He just wanted to smash the enemy's position to pieces, so that the people could live a peaceful and happy life as soon as possible, and no longer be trampled by the iron hoof of Japan.

Ren Suning saw that Han Dayong was injured and still insisted on position, and her tears could not stop flowing. In the face of the cruel war, Ren Suning just felt powerless. She stayed by Han Dayong's side, but a few minutes later, Han Dayong received a notice that he was about to fight.Ren Suning was about to leave here. Seeing the bloody clothes on Han Dayong's arm, Ren Suning cried out Han Dayong's name with tears in her eyes, with many words choked in her throat.

The enemy had built a solid redoubt and could not attack it at all. The reinforcements realized the powerful firepower and quickly retreated. They could not hold on like this for long. There was no other way, so Han Dayong had no choice but to order a full sprint.One side acted as a cover, while the other lay on his body and climbed up desperately. Only by climbing up the bunker could the fortress be blown up. Han Dayong was the first to bear the brunt. He used his body as a cover and threw the explosive package into the bunker.

Our army finally won the final victory. Ren Suning rushed to the newly recaptured Position to find Han Dayong, but all he found was a body. Han Dayong died heroically, still holding the scarf that Ren Suning knitted for her personally.Ren Suning burst into tears and resolutely carried her beloved back.Every moment when he met Han Dayong flashed before his eyes. Ren Suning witnessed the murder of his parents and the sacrifice of his lover in the war of resistance, which made his revolutionary belief even stronger.

Episode 22

Li Kenong called Xia Yan to discuss some recent developments. Recently, Chiang Kai-shek took advantage of a defeat to severely punish Bai Chongxi, and demoted Bai Chongxi's position from the first level to the second level. He even gave up the local military advisor mobilization power. Currently,Guilin's culture is very prosperous, and there is peace between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. It is because of Bai Chongxi's protection. There are many Chiang Kai-shek's informants in Guilin, and they have obviously reported everything Bai Chongxi did in Guilin to Shangfeng in a timely manner.

The weather was not good, and Li Kenong told Xia Yan to be careful. Bai Chongxi was likely to become a right-winger after being suppressed, so it was inevitable that he would not make some offensive moves.When they parted, Li Kenong asked Xia Yan to prepare a place to live and prepare to welcome Liu Yazi, a progressive writer who currently lives in Shanghai. Many underground elements are watching him and his life is in danger at all times.Xia Yan once saw Liu Yazi's article in the newspaper. He was very happy to hear that Liu Yazi was coming to Guilin.

An'e received a summons from Zhou Enlai. This time Zhou Enlai gave An'e the task of safely escorting Liu Yazi. There were frequent activities in Shanghai, and her life would be in danger if she was late for a minute.An'e has completed many tasks outstandingly and has rich experience in the war of resistance, especially her accurate marksmanship.An'e said that she would work hard to complete the task and hurried home to say goodbye to Tian Han.

When Tian Han saw his wife coming back from an outing, he packed his suitcase. He knew that she was going to Shanghai to perform a mission. Tian Han was very worried about his wife's safety. He hugged his wife and told her to be careful. He was very nervous every time he performed a mission and knew the dangers involved. An'e had lofty revolutionary beliefs and had already put aside personal life issues after going through life and death several times.

When she came to Shanghai, An'e saw that the people who went to Liu Yazi to persuade him to leave did not understand the ideological issues. With certain preparations, An'e went to visit as Tian Han's wife, and then cooked with Liu Yazi's wife. When cooking, An'e did Liu Yazi's wife's job well.E and Liu Yazi first told that there were many literati in Guilin who talked about literature and exchanged creative experiences with each other every day. Everyone missed him very much, and then told Mr. Liu Yazi to leave the green hills behind and prepare for a better tomorrow for the revolution.Liu Yazi sized up the situation and finally agreed to follow An'e.

Late at night, there was a scream from Liu Yazi's house, and then the sound of something breaking to the ground. Then a female comrade hurriedly ran out from downstairs and called the hospital directly from the public phone downstairs. Soon the hospital ambulance came, and Liu Yazi was put on a stretcher, all limp, and taken into the ambulance.The surrounding informants were surprised when they saw Liu Yazi's family. While Liu Yazi's family was running to the hospital, they hurriedly went to the house to take a look. They found that everything was normal and there was no sign of escape, so they relaxed their vigilance.

Under the cover of An'e, Liu Yazi returned to Guilin safely and smoothly. Xia Yan brought local literary and artistic writers to personally clean him up. Like-minded people gathered together to talk and laugh, temporarily forgetting the danger they had just experienced.

Episode 23

When An'e returned home after completing the task, Tian Han was leaning on the table and concentrating on his creation. He didn't even notice that anyone had entered the room.The couple were very happy to reunite. Tian Han showed his wife a very good script he had recently discovered, written by Hong Shen. This writer was very talented, but unfortunately the environment was not good and the creative efficiency was not as high as before. When talking about Hong Shen's current situation, Tian Han was almost annoyed.

At present, the Japanese invaders are still tyrannizing in China, but the Kuomintang party ignores the current foreign enemies and is now open to internal strife. It is really puzzling. An'e heard that Hong Shen's condition was not good before performing the mission. Now that she had just returned home, she suggested that she and Tian Han go to visit Hong Shen.

Hong Shen showed Tian Han and his wife a letter recently issued by Chiang Kai-shek. The content clearly stated that anyone who joined the G Party was not allowed to participate in any kind of work in the Third Hall.Hong Shen was very angry. The Kuomintang and the Communist Party had just won several victories together, but now they were once again provoking a civil war, and the people were in dire straits.The situation in Chongqing was very bad, so An'e persuaded Hong Shen to go to Guilin to work with them.

Hong Shen felt that he once worked in the Kuomintang unit and now he has no face to meet his former friends back in Guilin. Tian Han also actively did Hong Shen's work, but now Hong Shen is desperate and drinks and curses every day. An'e persuades him to cheer up and keep a low profile for the sake of dawn, but Hong Shen shakes his head repeatedly. He has no illusions about the current situation.

An'e went to Comrade Zhou Enlai to report the recent decisions of the Third Office. Guo Moruo was also there at the time. Guo Moruo was in the office complaining about the orders issued by Chiang Kai-shek and denounced the short-sightedness and narrow-mindedness of the party-state.Zhou Enlai called to verify the situation. Since Chiang Kai-shek was now firmly committed to internal strife, he decided to accept all the cultural workers expelled from the Third Hall.

Zhou Enlai called Wen Yanbai, hoping that he would give some progressive people in Guilin some opportunities to stay. Wen Yanbai considered these people and reported the application to his superiors. He quickly received a reply. All the names proposed by Zhou Enlai were approved to stay, including Guo Moruo.

Mr. Kalman came to China and was very concerned about the invaded countries. He first went to Yan'an and saw the revolutionary beliefs identified there. Then he came to Guilin and saw some progressive people adopting many orphans whose families were destroyed in the bombing and taking them to study. Kalman was deeply moved and took many photos of them. These orphans lived with their teachers in cave dwellings and ruins. Although the living environment was extremely harsh, everyone was strong, sang patriotic songs, and still insisted on studying.

Li Kenong learned that Liu Hancao coveted the job of the leader of the Political Department. This Liu Hancao supported Chiang Kai-shek and was an active anti-G activist. He could not be allowed to sit in such an important position. Li Kenong thought of a way and summoned celebrities and patriots in Guilin who supported the Kuomintang and the Communist Party's united front thinking. Many of them were well-known elders. They cared about the comfort of the motherland and were obliged to help. Everyone unanimously agreed to let Mrs. Li serve as the director of the Guangxi Political Department.

Xia Yan and several seniors went to Mrs. Li's residence to ask for an audience. Mrs. Li warmly received them. After hearing everyone's original intention of coming and considering the interests of the people of Guangxi, Mrs. Li no longer refused and agreed on the spot. Everyone applauded excitedly. With Mrs. Li in charge of the Political Department, I believe that Guangxi's cultural position will be protected.

Episode 24

After a lot of preparations, the Guangxi office started with great fanfare. Liu Hancao also attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony. He had been planning for so long, but in the end he was beaten first. Liu Hancao must have felt uncomfortable, but the other party had a prominent status and people who supported Mrs. Li's rise would not dare to offend him. He could only hold back his cowardice in his heart.

At this time, the leader of the Guangxi underground spy organization went directly to Liu Hancao's office and brought an urgent letter from Shangfeng. He had previously told them not to act rashly, but now they finally had a positive reply, allowing them to go underground.It seems that Shangfeng is about to take action. This is a rare opportunity for Liu Hancao, who has been ready to take action. Heroes have emerged in troubled times since ancient times, and his knife hidden in the party is about to come out.

Under the protection of Li Kenong, a Xin'an tour group composed of dozens of orphans came to Guilin, providing a warm and safe place for the children. They followed the teacher in class and sometimes sang national salvation songs. Wherever they went, they sang songs of defying Japanese aggression, because they were all orphans whose parents were killed in the national disaster. Their tenacity and courage attracted widespread attention in most of China.

When Liu Hancao heard that these children had arrived at the Eighth Route Army's garrison, he felt that he could not let the Eighth Route Army feel so comfortable, so he openly led a pair of heavily armed soldiers to intercept them, hoping to bring the children to the party-state side. At that time, Ren Suning was taking the children to sing the national anthem.

Ren Suning and the children were frightened by the sudden formation. Li Kenong immediately stood in front of the children and reassured everyone not to be nervous. At the same time, he ordered his soldiers to put down their guns. Li Kenong came to Liu Hancao. Liu Hancao said that these children belonged to the Kuomintang and would take them back now.Li Kenong also tried his best to explain that these children did not have enough food and clothing when they arrived in Guilin. Local official Huang Xuchu once distanced himself from the relationship and said that the tour group was a private individual organization.However, Liu Hancao's gaze was compelling. Li Kenong did not want to damage the cooperative relationship between the state and the public, so he had to compromise temporarily.

Those children were forcibly put on the truck. Ren Suning was very angry when she saw it. These children were all teenagers and were forced into the truck to follow Liu Hancao by a group of soldiers with guns.Ren Suning took many photos and wrote many indignant words excitedly, preparing to publish them in the National Salvation Daily.

After Xia Yan saw the article, he immediately reminded Ren Suning that this article could not be published. Once it was published, it would seriously interfere with the cooperation between the state and the public and cause a social sensation. At the same time, the people began to take a stand in their hearts and pushed the National Salvation Daily into the storm. But Ren Suning just couldn't understand it, and the two of them argued.

Later, with the patient explanation and analysis of her colleagues, Ren Suning finally understood that her impulsiveness almost led to a big mistake. She took the initiative to visit the children and found that the children had a clean and warm place to live, and the Kuomintang party bought each of them new clothes. They had no worries about food and clothing for the time being, and she finally felt at ease.Among the children, Ren Suning also proposed to teach them foreign languages ​​frequently.

The underground operation of the Gui clique began. Liu Hancao received the order to assassinate Liu Yazi and solved it on the spot.He readily accepted the task and quickly arranged for people to act as planned.

Episode 25

The order Liu Hancao received was to execute Liu Yazi on the spot. At the same time, Li Jishen also received an order from his superiors to transfer Liu Yazi to Chongqing for execution. In fact, the Kuomintang party had already complained about Li Jishen, who had supported the Communist Party several times, and wanted to use this incident to implicate Li Jishen and demote him.

Li Kenong also received the news and knew that Liu Yazi was in danger, so he quickly found someone to help move him.Li Jishen was also very skillful in politics. After receiving the order, he naturally knew that the superior had objections to him. After thinking quickly, Li Jishen called Liu Hancao, who often had contact with the Guangxi clique. Li Jishen first expressed friendship with Liu Hancao, and then called Li Kenong in front of Liu Hancao and gave him a verbal warning, reminding him not to do things he shouldn't do in the Kuomintang-controlled area, and then also reminded him of other things to delay time.

Liu Hancao was sitting next to him. He felt that Li Jishen's actions were unnecessary, but at the same time he couldn't find anything wrong with them.After Li Jishen gave Liu Hancao a warning, he let him go back, and then handed over the task of capturing Liu Yazi to the security company.When Liu Hancao heard the news, it was already too late. Shangfeng wanted Liu Hancao to execute Liu Yazi in Guilin, but Li Jishen did not give him the assassination task at all, so Liu Hancao had no chance to frame Li Jishen.

Before Li Kenong came to see Li Jishen, he went to Xia Yan, who was secretly responsible for transferring Liu Yazi.Xia Yan took several old comrades from the literary and art circles to find Liu Yazi at home on the pretext of celebrating his birthday, and then let Liu Yazi and his wife escape through the back window while the agents at the door were unprepared.Then he got on the plane arranged by our party and evacuated quickly. When he saw the plane taking off, Li Kenong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Kuomintang convened a meeting with many well-known local scholars and solemnly issued instructions that from now on, no anti-war scripts were allowed to be written, and any drama creation activities were stopped.As soon as this order came out, Hong Shen stood up first and walked away without even listening to the announced order.After Hong Shen returned, he denounced the Kuomintang for destroying the newly established anti-Japanese united front. He was deeply worried about China's future, and then he and his wife committed suicide by drinking medicine.

When Yang Dongxuan and others heard the news, they immediately went to Hong Shen's home and saw the poison bottle falling on the ground. He felt extremely sad. At this time, someone from a neighbor told him that the couple committed suicide by taking poison. They were discovered by their daughter and had just been sent to the hospital.Yang Dongshun rushed to the hospital. Fortunately, the rescue was timely and Hong Shen and his wife were out of danger.

On the hospital bed, Hong Shen opened his eyes weakly. He explained that he committed suicide to put pressure on the local Kuomintang government, but when he finished drinking the medicine, he woke up and felt that it was meaningless to die like this. He seemed to be a dead bug to the Kuomintang, so he wanted to live and contribute to the liberation of China.

Chairman Zhou Enlai knew about this. Now that Hong Shen's suicide had become known throughout the city, Guilin could no longer stay. Li Kenong asked what to do next.Some people suggested that it would be better to send Hong Shen and his wife to Yan'an, but the great Comrade Zhou Enlai thought about it and decided to send Hong Shen, his wife and their children to Guangzhou. He had a relationship with the university in Guangzhou, so Hong Shen could teach there to avoid being exposed for the time being, and the stable salary could also cure his daughter's illness.This decision is very good. It does not touch the sensitive areas of the Kuomintang and can help Hong Shen move to a safe place.

The Kuomintang was preparing to kill some progressive literati who were unwilling to join the Kuomintang, but it was always one step behind. When the agents went to the house, they found that the house was empty.Liu Hancao was very angry and thought that someone must have leaked the information. He went straight to recruit Li Jishen, but was left speechless by Li Jishen's question and walked away in despair.

Episode 26

During the Wannan Incident, the Kuomintang's passive resistance to the Japanese invaders seriously affected the outcome of the war. After the defeat, the Kuomintang publicly attributed the failure to the Communist Party and asked all newspapers in Guilin to publish the Kuomintang's directive. The remarks seriously misled the people.

The staff of National Salvation Daily were very indignant when they heard the news released by the Kuomintang and expressed their desire to clarify the truth. Xia Yan saw that the article they wrote clearly stated the facts and the truth was clear, so he suggested that he publish it now.Suddenly, a notice came down. The Kuomintang Party solemnly informed that all samples published by newspapers must be submitted for review. Only after they are submitted for review can they be published on a large scale. Those who publish privately will be closed down.

There had been a solemn announcement, and Xia Yan asked Li Kenong what to do next. Li Kenong conveyed Comrade Zhou Enlai's oral instructions, asking them to restrain their voices of resistance now. Li Kenong also told everyone to be cautious, and then left because of something.Xia Yan decided to secretly seduce Chen Cang and send Liu Hancao a review sample. There was no problem at all, but it was indeed a different newspaper they would publish tomorrow.Other comrades immediately went to do it. That night, Liu Hancao had been waiting in the Political Department, carefully reviewing the layout of each newspaper, thinking that everything was under control.

Xia Yan went to the printing house non-stop. At first, the person in charge of the printing house was worried that printing this edition of the newspaper would cause the workshop employees to lose their jobs. When they saw Xia Yan gave them a sample that Liu Hancao had reviewed, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. The printing house kept printing the newspaper all night long.

Late at night, Li Kenong hurriedly found Xia Yan and asked him to get a ticket and evacuate Guilin overnight. According to the assassination list issued by the Kuomintang, his and his names were on it. Xia Yan wanted to wait until the newspaper came out the next day before leaving. However, the situation was urgent. Li Kenong also warned that new comrades would take over his post. This was also Comrade Zhou Enlai's decision. In order to preserve combat effectiveness, Xia Yan took a plane to leave Guilin.

On this sleepless night, Comrade Zhou Enlai also issued the Twenty-Article Declaration in Chongqing, asking the Kuomintang to clarify the truth to the public, personally condolences to the families of the martyrs who died in the Wannan Incident, and restore freedom of speech.Zhou Enlai's instructions were quickly published in Xinhua Daily, and patriotic compatriots at home and abroad immediately denounced Chiang Kai-shek's hypocrisy.

Liu Hancao secretly met with Lu Wenzhou, the leader of the underground secret service. The tasks given to them by Shangfeng always came via telegram. He was worried that he would not be able to get Li Jishen's consent when taking action. Lu Wenzhou directly reminded him that when necessary, he could bypass Li Jishen and act alone.With these words, Liu Hancao felt confident.

The next day, Liu Hancao was very angry when he saw the content of the National Salvation Daily. He immediately worried all the soldiers, preparing to close the newspaper and arrest the people responsible for printing.Liu Hancao chuckled and then took out a telegram, which contained a secret letter from Chiang Kai-shek. Due to the pressure of public opinion at home and abroad, Chiang Kai-shek suspended all anti-G actions in Guilin.Liu Hancao saw the telegram, verified the authenticity of the content, and immediately canceled the order to seal the National Salvation Daily.

Lu Wenzhou brought the assassination list and asked Liu Hancao to execute Li Kenong immediately. However, there was a company of people guarding Li Kenong's office. Lu Wenzhou did not have that many people at all, so he had to borrow Liu Hancao's soldiers. At present, Liu Hancao did not have enough authority, so he had to take him to see Li Jishen.After Li Jishen saw the secret order, he quickly found someone to deliver the letter to Li Kenong.When Liu Hancao's people arrived, the house was already empty.

The editors of the newspaper began to move to Yan'an. Because his wife was pregnant, Comrade Ai Wu could only wait until his wife gave birth before leaving. Ren Suning decided to stay in Guilin after consideration. She was reluctant to leave the orphans who survived the Japanese massacre and wanted to accompany them to take care of them.

Episode 27

Guilin, Li Kenong, Xia Yan and others have already evacuated to Yan'an. After careful study, our party decided to send Shao Quanlin as the leader of the Guilin cultural working group, and also sent An'e and Tian Han to Guilin to engage in cultural inheritance work.Tian Han was very happy after receiving the notice. A year ago, the play he wrote - within a year - was successfully screened here. At that time, there was an unprecedented sensation, and the seats were almost full.Tian Han decided to resume his old career in Guilin, and the Central Government also decided to establish the Chinese Theater. As soon as he arrived in Guilin, he went to the Xinhua Theater.

Because of the war, there were still many ruins on the streets, and there were very few people on the road. Every passerby had a sad look on his face, and some helped move the martyrs who died in the bombing to be buried outside the city. Tian Han felt very heavy.A year ago it was still crowded here, but now it is so depressed.Tian Han met his old friend Mao Dun at the Xinhua Theater. It turned out that Mao Dun and his wife had also come to Guilin. They were both writers. The old friends were very happy to meet. Tian Han held Mao Dun's hand tightly and invited him to join the theater.

Shao Quanlin personally arranged the residence of Mao Dun and his wife. Due to the poor environment, they could not rent a suitable house for the time being, so Shao Quanlin let Mao Dun and his wife live in their home first. The Mao Duns were very kind. When they saw that Shao Quanlin gave them the best bedroom in the house, they immediately applied for a change and lived in a utility room nearby.

An'e went to meet Ren Suning. Now Ren Suning is working as a teacher for those orphans. An'e was very satisfied with Ren Suning's performance and revealed her true identity. On the surface, she was Tian Han's wife, but in fact she was the liaison officer of the Communist Party of China in southern China., that is, Ren Suning's launch. From then on, Ren Suning will take on the task of delivering the war in the south. Ren Suning is very happy for this glorious decision. She feels it is extremely honorable to work for New China, and she was ready to sacrifice many years ago.

Tian Han arrived in Guilin and quickly met with local literary and artistic workers, reorganized the drama performance group, and with everyone's unanimous suggestion, he also invited Mr. Hong Shen, who teaches at Guangzhou University.At first, Hong Shen felt that there was no hope of saving the country and even thought of committing suicide. Now that he heard that the environment in Guilin had stabilized and that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were cooperating again, he rushed back from Guangzhou without hesitation and joined the cultural anti-Japanese group.

When Hong Shen saw Tian Han's delay in submitting the manuscript, he inspired him to take the Battle of Changsha as the background and the changes faced by countless families in China. Under Hong Shen's guidance, Tian Han's enlightenment suddenly dawned, and his literary thoughts surged. He immediately returned home and continued writing.

In Tian Han's creation, An'e heard a man call his ex-wife's name more than once. She felt uncomfortable and confirmed that the man wanted to write housework into the novel. She expressed deep dissatisfaction and solemnly reminded Tian Han that if he wanted to write housework into the play, she would break up with him.

To this end, Hong Shen came to do ideological work with An'e. Literary and artistic workers' creations are based on personal experience and insights, while Tian Han is definitely not an individualist. From his works, it can be seen that Tian Han cares about the country and is not petty at all. After Hong Shen's mediation, An'e no longer refused for the time being, but also made a request: after the script is written, she should be shown it as soon as possible.Hong Shen agreed immediately.

At the Sino-Soviet Cultural Association on Zhongshan Road in Chongqing, Comrade Zhou Enlai personally delivered a speech, encouraging cultural creators to learn from Guo Moruo. Today is Guo Moruo’s birthday. Many literary and art workers gathered together to celebrate Guo Moruo’s birthday and to boost everyone’s morale and vigorously promote Chinese culture.

Soon the Pacific War broke out. While invading East Asia, the Japanese were ambitious to dominate the Pacific with the Pacific as the center. For a time, China became the eastern battlefield to attack Japan.

Guo Moruo's play script was finally finished. Comrade Zhou Enlai personally visited Guo Moruo's home and congratulated Guo Moruo on his success.

Episode 28

Qu Yuan, a play written by Guo Moruo, has very good content. Comrade Zhou Enlai was very satisfied after seeing it. After some preparations, the play was finally successfully put on the stage. On the day of the first performance, the applause was thunderous and could not stop for a long time. Everyone in the audience was extremely excited. Qu Yuan dedicated his whole life for the country and died. The national crisis is facing us. Of course, countless Chinese people cannot just sit back and ignore it.This drama also affected the Kuomintang. Some leaders began to send messages and immediately banned the performance. An'e quickly reported the news to Comrade Zhou Enlai. Comrade Zhou Enlai asked reporters to play their role in publicizing the grand performance of Qu Yuan's drama, including the spirit of patriotism. In the end, because of the strong power of public opinion, the Kuomintang revoked the ban.

Japan soon occupied Guangdong, and countless progressive students took to the streets. However, the Japanese army openly used machine guns to clear the way, and countless patriotic students fell in a pool of blood.Several patriotic writers from Xia Yan's side were also included in the assassination list. The situation was urgent. Comrade Zhou Enlai personally appointed rescue and cover personnel. He found Liao Chengzhi and asked Liao Chengzhi to take a few people to quickly help Xia Yan leave Hong Kong.

Xia Yan and Liu Yazi disguised themselves and took advantage of the night to quietly leave by boat. The boat was sailing on the river. It was calm and calm, but suddenly they encountered a Japanese surveillance ship and were about to search. Everyone was nervous in their throats.

Early in the morning, Ren Suning hurriedly knocked on the door of An'e's house with a newspaper. The newspaper clearly stated that Xia Yan and several other progressive young writers had all died.This news shocked countless people. Ren Suning burst into tears, thinking of every time she saw Xia Yan before, how beautiful, progressive, and brave a literary and artistic worker, her teacher, left like this.In addition to being sad, An'e also advised Ren Suning to cheer up and turn grief into strength.

Tian Han and several other writers planned to hold a memorial service for Xia Yan to commemorate Xia Yan. Everyone has been shrouded in dark clouds these days.An'e received a secret message and learned that Xia Yan and other literary and artistic workers were still alive. She was very excited. This news was still confidential, so An'e could not make it public. Tian Han was still preparing for the memorial meeting. An'e suggested that Tian Han hold the meeting later. Tian Han felt that An'e was unkind and even accused her of being indifferent.Seeing An'e's expression, Tian Han wanted to know what news she got, but there was a record in the organization that An'e didn't tell him. Tian Han even had a quarrel with An'e about this.

Tian Han ran to Hong Shen to complain. Hong Shen and he had been friends for many years. Whenever there were quarrels between husband and wife, they could always be successfully resolved by going to Hong Shen.Soon, An'e received the exact news that Xia Yan and others had already boarded the train and were about to arrive at Guilin Railway Station.She immediately ran to Xia Yan's memorial service to announce the good news. Hong Shen and others cried excitedly.Everyone went to the train station to greet Xia Yan. The moment they saw Xia Yan, each other was so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

Tian Han apologized to An'e for this matter. He shouldn't have been so impulsive in asking about the secret time. An'e explained to him the reason. Xia Yan was still on the rescue route at that time. If the news was accidentally leaked, he was afraid of another incident, and besides Xia Yan, several other writers would have to be rescued secretly in the future. Tian Han nodded immediately after hearing this. It was indeed that he had not thought carefully.

Episode 29

The temporary tranquility in Guilin allowed countless patriotic writers and artists to meet again. Ye Shengtao met Fu Binran and another friend. Originally they were just passing by and had not decided where to go, but Ye Shengtao told them that Wang Luyan, Xia Yan, Lao She, etc. were all here, and usually everyone could learn more and ask for advice. After hearing this, Fu Binran happily decided to stay.

The leader of the National Salvation Association, formed by patriots within the Kuomintang, was assassinated. Now Xia Yan has successfully escaped. They want Xia Yan to fill this vacancy.

When I was in Guilin, whenever I had free time, many literary and art workers gathered together to discuss drama and literature. Many like-minded people discussed creation for this common goal, using words as big as a raft to save the country. The atmosphere was very exciting. Xia Yan gave high praise to the upcoming script, and the director Ju Yin was also careful about the setting of the entire storyline.

Some people who left Guilin picked up books and continued teaching in new places. They heard that the situation there had begun to ease, and they were also thinking about the future. They heard that Xia Yan had returned to Guilin, and they were hesitating whether to turn to Guilin as well.The class bell rang, and he picked up his textbook to teach. Suddenly he saw Xia Yan coming, and his excitement was beyond words. Xia Yan's arrival made him see the sun again. Several literary and artistic workers held their hands tightly together, and the students present were touched by their friendship.

After careful consideration by the party organization, Ren Suning's application to join the party was finally approved. Xia Yan and An He went to see Ren Suning in person. At that time, Ren Suning was teaching the orphans to sing. An'e witnessed Ren Suning's growth. Under the bright party flag, Ren Suning began to take the oath of joining the party. Countless years of hard work turned a weak and timid girl into a tough and brave party member.

Tian Han's "Qiu Sheng Fu" was written quickly. According to An'e's suggestion at the time, he showed it to An'e as soon as he finished it. An'e looked tired when she saw Tian Han's busy work these days. This playwright has a true love for literature.An'e read the poem - Qiu Sheng Fu - in one breath. During this period, she recalled what Hong Shen once told her. Tian Han is a playwright who has a sense of the overall situation and will not stick to some small emotions. It seems to be true. Tian Han's Qiu Sheng Fu uses Qu Yuan as a typical character. It is written in a noble and friendly way, and all the ethereal emotions are written with a sense of life.

After Director Hong Shen read the script, he quickly recommended it to Xia Yan and the crew. Everyone immediately discussed how to implement the script. According to custom, it was Director Hong Shen who discovered the script first and should also be directed by Director Hong Shen. However, Director Hong Shen took the initiative to step aside.He explained that the style of the script conflicted with what he was usually good at, so it would be better to let Qu Baiyin, also known as director Ju Yin, direct it. Qu Baiyin has a major in foreign dramatization and is able to grasp some majestic auras. At the same time, he is also good at portraying the details of life in vivid images.Everyone was moved by Hong Shen's spirit and couldn't help but applaud.

Episode 30

Xia Yan saw that Mr. Xiangxiang's house was very simple, so he began to think of ways to help him find a place with slightly better conditions. Nowadays, Guilin's housing is in very short supply. During the war, many houses were reduced to ruins every day, and the rent prices were also rising. Xia Yan understood the situation and still actively solved the problem.

Liu Yazi finally escaped from danger and now returned to Guilin. Li Renren was very happy to hear the news and asked Xia Yan to take Liu Yazi to his home. Li Renren wanted to personally take care of Liu Yazi.Liu Yazi openly scolded Chiang Kai-shek for destroying the United Front of the Communist Party of China in newspapers and listed Chiang Kai-shek's several crimes. He was secretly hunted down. Now he returned to Guilin and was warmly received by Li Renren. He was deeply moved.

Xia Yan had already found a clean and comfortable place for Liu Yazi. In Guilin, where housing was in short supply, Liu Yazi certainly understood the difficulties of mid-term. Xia Yan brought him a letter written by Zhou Enlai. In his heart, Zhou Enlai was very concerned about Liu Yazi's life and encouraged him to continue doing the job he liked without worrying about daily living expenses.Liu Yazi used to actively work for the Kuomintang. As soon as he had any objections, he was expelled from the party by Chiang Kai-shek. When he was in trouble, only the Communist Party cared about his safety and eliminated his worries. Liu Yazi became more determined in his choice.

BiFang finally finished writing the script in his hand, and Xia Yan had already found a place to live. However, An'e got the exact news and hurried to find Mr. BiBiang. The party organization received the news and asked him to leave Guilin immediately. BiBang did not ask the reason, but believed that there must be an organizational reason.Xia Yan decided to hold a small farewell party for Xiangbi. Mr. Xiangbi rarely interacted with others except for creation. Xia Yan gave An'e a list and asked her to summon everyone according to the list above.

When holding a farewell party for the conflict, An'e found Shen Yanbing hiding in the corner vomiting, with a sallow face. Shen Yanbing covered her stomach and quickly laughed and said she had drunk too much.After Shen Yanbing left, Xia Yan heard An'e's report that Shen Yanbing had not drank much wine at the banquet just now.

Early the next morning, Shen Yanbing's wife Qin Ying knocked on the door of An'e's house. When she learned that Shen Yanbing had not returned all night, An'e and Tian Han hurried to look for her.Qin Ying told An'e that Shen Yanbing had been in a very bad state recently. He had been writing at his desk all year round and was malnourished. His body had been completely exhausted. Now he is very ill and often faints.

On the hospital bed, Shen Yanbing got out of bed weakly, and the nurse brought him a payment slip. Shen Yanbing didn't even have eight yuan for the medical fee, so he had to owe it temporarily.The nurse saw that the patient's signature was “Shen Yanbing”. She was a fan of Shen Yanbing's books, and now she finally met him. She had just advised Shen Yanbing to be hospitalized for treatment, but Shen Yanbing didn't listen. The nurse hurriedly chased her out. No matter what, Shen Yanbing had to be sent back to the hospital.

The nurse chased Shen Yanbing to her home, and An'e finally learned that Shen Yanbing's condition was tuberculosis.Xia Yan was also very sad. This kind of disease is difficult to cure, and Shen Yanbing was definitely reluctant to give up the treatment. For this reason, the organization specially made donations for him to relieve his worries.

Tian Han's drama Qiu Shengfu was finally able to rehearse. He actively participated in the creation of the drama and asked An'e to give Tan Ying her family's savings.

Finally, the performance of Qiu Sheng Fu started as scheduled. On the day of the performance, all the literary and artistic workers in Guilin went to the premiere. They saw the stirring national love and the continuous struggle for the entire Chinese nation despite their small family. Every audience member in the audience burst into tears.The performance was highly praised by the audience, and the audience burst into applause.

Episode 31

After our party's meticulous activities, the saboteur Liu Hancao was finally eliminated. Now the Kuomintang has transferred him to Chongqing to take up his post due to pressure.Guilin's academic and literary activists are preparing to face the most difficult stage before the Anti-Japanese War. They suggested that the five provinces and cities should recently stage patriotic dramas together. Although the task is relatively arduous, Xia Yan is confident that because they now have the magic weapon of the Anti-Japanese National United Front, they can overcome the difficulties.

An'e received the order from the organization and went to Guilin West Railway Station to pick up Sanyuan. Sanyuan brought everyone exciting news. Member Zhou Enlai very much agreed with the Guilin Drama Committee's suggestions and suggested that some important leaders within the Kuomintang be made honorary presidents. This would allow the people to witness the unity of the anti-Japanese national united front.

Xia Yan was very excited when he saw the names of Chairman Jiang Jingguo, Li Jishen and the local governor of Guilin. This was the greatest success since the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Everyone began to prepare excitedly and busyly for the celebration.

At the celebration meeting for the opening of the play, almost all the well-known contemporary literary and artistic workers in Guilin attended, and the seats were packed. Li Jishen and the Kuomintang members sat in the audience with the spring breeze on their faces, and the local magistrate came on the stage to announce the opening ceremony.This performance event lasted for a month, and nearly 10,000 actors participated. This was an unprecedented event in the eyes of foreign friends and reporters.

Shen Yanbing's condition worsened and she had been in a coma in the hospital bed for several days. Xia Yan took Shen Yanbing's friends to the hospital to visit him. Tan Ying stood in front of the hospital bed and saw the man's haggard and sallow face. Thinking back to how vigorously he took care of the child and her before he became ill, Qin Ying's heart bleeds.

Someone suggested that the staged drama should be sung to Shen Yanbing. The singing was loud and clear, as if everyone had returned to the warm March of spring. Everyone present had red eyes. After Shen Yanbing passed away, An E came to express her condolences with a research letter from Comrade Zhou Enlai.Qin Ying saw the inscription written by Chairman Zhou Enlai to Shen Yanbing, and read it to Shen Yanbing's photo with tears in her eyes. In addition to the commendation, Comrade Zhou Enlai also allocated a generous living allowance to Qin Ying, which is enough to take care of the future lives of her three children.

The defense battle of Hengyang has been held on the front line for more than a month. The enemy is outnumbered and the war is very cruel. However, in order to preserve the elite force, Chairman Chiang did not send additional troops. If the defense battle of Hengyang fails, Guilin will become another city that will be affected. The front line has been holding on for a month. If it continues, it will be very bad. Some people who know the inside story begin to withdraw from Guilin one after another.The local magistrate was heartbroken when he heard about the fighting situation on the front line. As a Chinese, seeing the Japanese invasion, passive resistance within the party and focusing only on internal strife was not enough. Once the front line was lost, Guilin would immediately become a prisoner of the Japanese invaders.

At this time, Xia Yan came with Li Renren and advised the local officials in Guilin to issue an evacuation order immediately. The local officials in Guilin were also obedient and issued an evacuation order at that time, notifying the citizens of Guilin to evacuate immediately.The Japanese invaders soon invaded Guilin. Xia Yan and An'e evacuated with many outstanding literary and artistic workers and patriots. They learned that Guilin had fallen and countless innocent people died tragically under the Japanese butcher's knife. Everyone felt very heavy.

Episode 32

In Chongqing, Zhou Enlai saw dark clouds on the faces of comrades such as Xia Yan and An'e. Xia Yan sadly recounted his indignation when Guilin fell. Comrade Zhou Enlai encouraged them to be hopeful about the future. Before the fall of Guilin, Xia Yan and other comrades helped transfer many outstanding workers, which preserved a lot of wealth for New China. I hope they can continue to work hard.Zhou Enlai's words inject warmth into everyone's heart. There are still very important things to do ahead, and we must keep our spirits up to move forward.

Xia Yan received a new task. Comrade Zhou Enlai asked him to meet Pan Gongzhan, who now holds a high position in Chongqing. The cultural war in Chongqing has gradually become fiercer. There are three factions: left, center and right, each with its own pen.Zhou Enlai asked him to develop his expertise in Chongqing and strive to find his own voice.Xia Yan immediately accepted the task and went to collect the backgrounds of dignitaries from the local Ministry of Culture and Politics that day, especially Pan Gongzhan. Pan Gongzhan was a cunning old man who often did things that were not publicity behind the scenes. He must recruit all the available forces and strive to gain the right to public opinion as soon as possible.

Guo Moruo was also in Chongqing, and they were very happy when they met. Xia Yan once helped Guo Moruo, and now Guo Moruo has established himself in Chongqing again and helped Xia Yan with his work.Xia Yan went to see Pan Gongzhan the next day. On the way, Pan Gongzhan saw Xia Yan from the car window and told the guard not to let Xia Yan in.

Xia Yan had just learned from the guard that Pan Gongzhan had just arrived, but now he was rejected. He understood that Pan Gongzhan was a shareholder of a bookstore in Guilin before, and had helped them do a lot of things before, but now that the situation was about to change, he immediately distanced himself from Xia Yan and the others.

Pan Gongzhan showed up at the Chongqing Political Department, responsible for cultural matters. He didn't want Xia Yan to cause any trouble here, so he quickly eased the situation to show his goodwill, and personally escorted him outside the office building.Pan Gongzhan personally sent Xia Yan out, which happened to be seen by members of the Kuomintang party. This hostile element had a deep grudge against Xia Yan in Guilin, but he had just been transferred to Chongqing, and his position was not as high as Pan Gongzhan's. In addition, Pan Gongzhan did not like what the hostile elements did, so he did not take him seriously.

Propaganda in Yan'an never stopped. After Comrade Zhou Enlai left Yan'an, he asked Lin Boqu to sit in Chongqing and carry out cultural resistance again.Lin Boqu invited all the cultural celebrities in Chongqing to have tea and chat. The comrades from Yan'an also brought a wealth of rural specialties, including very useful matches, bright red dates, and rich fabrics.

During the arduous fourteen years of the war of resistance, the Communist Party of China has always been the mainstay of the entire nation's war of resistance. It recorded the hardships of the founding of New China. It also made immortal efforts and far-sighted thinking in the cultural war of resistance, saved the people's great cause of rejuvenating China, and won the absolute support of the people, thus achieving the final victory!
