Chapter 27 Chengdu Xinyan University
Ming thought about it and shook his head gently, "It's not good. It's so dark, I'm running around everywhere. If you don't talk about the danger, there's no progress. After we enter the city, we'll go to Xinyan University directly. It shouldn't be difficult to greet a few acquaintances. Isn't there a mimeographer in the school? I wrote and they printed it. I will hand the printed samples to the army tomorrow morning through Li Zhenying. Maybe they won't like this thing? Now it's messy and easy to make people laugh."
"Okay." Duoluo Xi nodded, "Although the mimeograph has a poorer clarity, it is better because of its fast speed. If it is printed through newspapers, the time will be much slower."
Located in the south of Chengdu city, Huaxiba is the birthplace of modern higher education in Sichuan. As early as 1910, the private West China Union University was built here. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War in 1937, universities in the eastern and central areas were forced to move westward one after another. Qilu University, Yanjing University, Jinling University, and Jinling Women's University moved to Chengdu, Sichuan, gathering in Huaxiba. After war, teachers and students finally found a relatively quiet place to study in the rear of China, and Huaxiba became the famous "five universities".
Faced with the chaotic situation, several schools showed a spirit of cooperation in unity and overcoming the national crisis. Each school adopted a loose alliance method, using each other's teachers, school buildings and equipment to collaborate on school education, adopting unified arrangements for teaching and opening classes separately, allowing students to choose courses at will from school to school. Each school recognized the credits students read, and the professors and teaching equipment could be communicated with each other. For a time, Huaxiba became a common campus of five universities.
With the bloody storm ahead, the higher education in Huaxiba not only did not shrink, but developed and increased. In the face of great difficulty in wartime, each school also added a number of departments. It is more worth mentioning that teachers and students from each school have learned from each other's strengths and weaknesses because they have been together day and night. They not only enhance friendship, but also expand knowledge.
Stu Leiden and his group escaped safely and entered the rear successfully. They were warmly welcomed by the government in Chongqing. Chiang Kai-shek and his wife held a special banquet to suppress them.
After a brief stay, Stu Leiden refused Chiang Kai-shek and his wife's retention, came to Chengdu, and re-entered his education career.
The teachers and students of Yan, who were driven out of the school in Peking, did not scatter in panic. They were full of hatred and supported each other according to the journey they had conceived in advance, from Kaifeng to the west, crossing the Yellow River; then they turned to Zhengzhou to Luoyang, and traveled from Luoyang to Chengdu.
Seeing more and more former students gathered around him again, this old American man felt great comfort and worked harder with his influence.
When Wu Ming and Dorothy rushed to Xinyan University and found Stuart Leiden again, although it was already very late, Stuart Leiden had not rested and was still planning for the school.
After meeting, after a few quick greetings, Wu Ming took over Stuart's office without hesitation. He took out his own things and started writing, leaving Dorothy to explain the reason to Stuart.
After a while, Stu Leiden found a teacher and a few students, moved a mimeograph machine, and started to work hard.
At about three o'clock in the morning, Wu Ming put down his pen and rubbed his sore eyes hard.
A cup of fragrant coffee was gently brought to him, and Wu Ming looked up. It turned out that Dorothy had been silently accompanying him.
"Thank you." Wu Ming said gratefully: "It's very hard to travel, you don't have to accompany me."
"I asked Principal Situ, your two wives and Zheng Pingru went out to search for information, and they were not here for the time being." Duoluoxi said with a smile: "When they come back, I don't have a chance to accompany you."
Wu Ming smiled apologetically and changed the subject, "Where is Mr. Situ? He is old, can't stand it anymore, right?"
"He has gone to bed early." Duoloxi also had a tired face, "However, this coffee is his place, and he also told the students from Yan University to print outside, which is quite good."
"Yes!" Wu Ming nodded, "You go to bed, I'll go see how busy you are outside?"
"I'll just lie here for a while!" Dorothy pointed to a sofa next to her and walked over, "It's so late, it's hard to find a place to live."
Wu Ming nodded, picked up his coat and covered Dorothy, and gently touched her face.
Dorothy smiled slightly and closed her eyes.
Wu Ming walked out of the house with the last piece of papers and came to the room next to him. He saw a few young students guarding the two mimeograph machines and working hard, talking and laughing in a low voice, without any fatigue.
"Sorry, thank you for your hard work." Wu Ming said with a smile.
Several students turned around and laughed
A young man who was carving wax paper stood up, "Mr. Liu, you all
"Yes!" Wu Ming handed over the paper in his hand, "I wonder if it will be printed tomorrow morning?"
—
"No problem, don't worry." The young man took the paper and said with a smile: "It will definitely not delay your gift to the expeditionary force."
"Do you know too?" Wu Ming pulled over a chair and sat down.
"Haha, you can tell a rough idea by looking at this content." A student raised his face from the printing press and said with a smile: "It's so exciting that we can do our part!"
"Haha, it seems that it's really out of place if I want to say trouble for you." Wu Ming laughed.
The student who was carving wax paper seemed to have something to say, hesitated for a while, then raised his head and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Liu, is this tropical jungle really dangerous?" At this time, the other students also raised their ears.
Wu Ming nodded solemnly, "That's true. For those who are not familiar with the environment, they don't know how to die after entering. Mosquito bites you may cause you to get sick. There are also tropical diseases transmitted by insects, dengue fever, especially food and water. Don't think that if there is plenty of rain there, you won't die of thirst. Some water is toxic."
"So that's how it is." The young student frowned and shook his head in distress.
"Mr. Liu, you have been running all the way and written for the middle of the night. Let's go and take a break first!" Another student said considerately: "Don't worry, we will definitely complete the task tomorrow morning."
"Then I'm not polite." Wu Ming was really sleepy, so he stood up and walked towards Stu Leiden's office with a smile.
…………………………
Military camp outside Chengdu.
"Stand Master, what are you doing with your subordinates?" Li Zhenying, dressed in military uniform, saluted and asked.
Dai Anlan, the commander of the 89th Division of the National Army, whose courtesy name was Yangong and his pseudonym Haiou, joined the army in 1924. He was promoted step by step due to his bravery in combat. Later, he was admitted to the third phase of the Huangpu Army Officer's School in Guangdong. After graduation, he participated in the Northern Expedition, leading the way and made many military achievements. He participated in famous battles such as the Taierzhuang Battle, the Zhongtiaoshan Battle, and the Wuhan Defense Battle. At that time, there was news that the Chinese army went abroad to expedition to Myanmar Japanese invaders. When General Dai heard about it, he often told people: "If you can go abroad to expedition to foreign lands, you will only repay your man's volunteers!" Later, he received the order to go abroad to expedition to Myanmar. He was extremely excited and sang the song "Manjianghong" to express his patriotic aspirations, summoned all the soldiers of the division to preach the historical sites of Zhuge Wuhou's expedition, and encouraged his subordinates to make great contributions to foreign lands, and sacrificed their lives heroically to resist foreign aggression and defend the motherland.
"Zhenying, sit down!" Dai Anlan smiled and raised his hand.
Seeing Li Zhenying sitting down respectfully, Dai Anlan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "To be honest, this is the nature of a soldier. If you come to you, there is nothing important, it is about that American consultant."
"Tom? What's wrong with him?" Li Zhenying asked in confusion.
"It's not that much." Dai Anlan frowned slightly, "I'm very dissatisfied with it. The Chinese army and the US army are very different in training, equipment, and tactics, but he insists on everything and commanding blindly."
"What do you mean by the teacher?" Li Zhenying asked.
"A foreigner will not take the lives of us Chinese seriously when fighting." Dai Anlan slapped the table with annoyance, "But I have to be responsible for these brothers, so I would like to ask you to redirect yourself in front of American consultants."
"I probably understand what the master means. Should I let me fool him and help you when translating?" Li Zhenying asked tentatively.
"It's worthy of being a graduate of Yan University, it's just smart." Dai Anlan praised with a smile: "Don't do everything, just fool him while commanding the battle, and don't let him command blindly."
"Haha, no problem." Li Zhenying laughed, "He doesn't understand the actual situation, so he definitely can't hand over his brothers' lives to a foreigner. Don't worry, teacher!"
"Okay." Dai Anlan nodded with a smile on his face, "Young man, do it well. Those who are knowledgeable and military-based like you are very promising in the army."
"I have been awarded the title of the master, and I have only been learning from the master for a few months. I really can't take advantage of that little thing." Li Zhenying said modestly.
