Chapter 543 542【Application】

Peking Army Prison.

The jailer came to a women's prison, knocked on the iron railing and said, "Yu Peichen, you can go, someone will release you on bail."

Yu Peichen exhaled slowly, and said to the female prisoners in the same prison: "Comrade, take care!"

"Take care!" the female prisoner nodded.

The jailer urged impatiently: "Hurry up, hurry up, don't leave if you don't want to leave!"

Only then did Yu Peichen quicken his pace and follow the jailer to retrieve his belongings. Her confiscated pen and several oceans have disappeared, probably taken away by a jailer, leaving only the clothes she wore when she first entered the prison.

Quickly changing into her own clothes, the female prisoner becomes a female student again. Yu Peichen walked out of the prison gate in a daze. She had been expelled from Beijing Normal University, and she didn't know what to do in the future.

There were two middle-aged men standing at the gate of the prison, and one of them asked with concern: "Youyu, they didn't make things difficult for you, did they?"

"It's okay, thank you, Uncle Zhang," Yu Peichen nodded and smiled, then turned to look at another middle-aged man, and shouted, "Dad."

Yu's father said with a gloomy face, "I told you to study honestly, but you have to hang out with the rebels all day long. Now you know what's good or bad! If it weren't for your father's thin face, you are still locked in and can't get out now." !"

The middle-aged man surnamed Zhang persuaded: "Okay, Brother Yu, it's good that nothing serious happened, so you can just say a few words less."

Yu Peichen bowed her head and said nothing. She looked down on her father, let alone listen to his advice.

Yu Peichen's grandfather was named Yu Shimei, who was ranked second in the imperial examination during the Tongzhi period. The first official position he took was Guangdong Xuetai, which was equivalent to the director of the Guangdong Education Department. He strongly advocated the abolition of the imperial examination and the establishment of schools. He served as Li Hongzhang's staff for more than ten years, and finally became the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Yu Peichen's grandfather is also a celebrity, named Cen Chunxuan. When the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China, the Empress Dowager Cixi fled in a hurry. Cen Chunxuan, the only one who came to rescue her with 2,000 people, served successively as governor of Shaanxi, governor of Shanxi, governor of Sichuan, and governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. ".

Such a prominent family background has been ruined by Yu Peichen's father.

Until now, Yu Peichen's father has no proper job, and he has been thinking about how to sell his property all day long.

Just a few years ago, the Yu family's real estate, antiques, calligraphy and paintings were all sold off, and they couldn't even afford the tuition fees for the four Yu Peichen sisters. Yu Peichen had no choice but to set up a stall in Changdian, opposite Beijing Normal University, and write letters and couplets for others, so as to maintain the tuition fees for himself and his three younger sisters.

In the past two years, life at home has become increasingly difficult. Yu Peichen's mother was forced to move with her younger siblings to her grandfather's house in Shanghai, while Yu Peichen himself lived in the student dormitory of Beijing Normal University.

How could Yu Peichen listen to such an incomprehensible father?

No, Yu's father didn't say a few words, and was about to leave in a cool manner: "Since you are fine, then I will leave first, my friend is still waiting for me to play mahjong."

Yu Peichen rolled his eyes, too lazy to speak.

When his father left, the middle-aged man surnamed Zhang took out a dozen dollars and said, "Younger, take the money and find a place to live first. It doesn't matter if you get expelled from Beijing Normal University. You can re-enter a good university next year."

"Uncle Zhang, I don't want to study anymore, I want to work." Yu Peichen said with firm eyes. She has been in college for three years, and she really doesn't want to do it all over again.

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "I have some friendship with Hu Zhengzhi of Ta Kung Pao, why don't you go to work in Tianjin."

Yu Peichen nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang, I'll leave my father to you."

The middle-aged man smiled wryly and said, "My lord is kind to me. Even if you don't tell me, I will help. It is impossible to watch your father starve to death."

That afternoon, Yu Peichen bought a train ticket to Tianjin and was going to work as an editor at Ta Kung Pao. Although she has not yet graduated from university, she is very capable and was even selected as a student representative to attend the Pacific Academic Conference.

On the train, Yu Peichen sat down in a trance, only listening to a few passengers around him say——

"Mr. Zhou's novel is truly amazing, and it's another shocking masterpiece!"

"Isn't it? It has only been serialized for more than 20,000 words, and it has already outlined the chaos of the world."

"When "Titanic" was published last time, some people said that Mr. Zhou was out of talent and could only write some romantic novels. Now they should shut up."

"Not only novels, but the magazine "Fei Gong" is well edited. If I hadn't read this magazine, I would not have known that there are so many unknown anti-Japanese heroes in Northeast China."

"Yes, please read this article! On February 8, three heroes, Chen Dongshan, Zhang Yuting, and Liu Wankui, led more than 2,100 volunteer troops to conquer Mishan County and Pingyang Town, which were occupied by the Japanese invaders, and repelled many times. The attack of the Japanese and puppet troops. On March 1, the hero Gao Yushan led 3,000 National Salvation Army soldiers to conquer Hulin County. On May 25, Gao Yushan led his troops to capture Raohe County, taking Hulin, Raohe, Fu The three distant counties are connected together. I heard that Hulin County is now occupied by the hero Gao Yushan, who repelled more than ten attacks by the Japanese and puppet troops in four months, and the Japanese devils are mobilizing the main force of the Kwantung Army."

"Gao Yushan is such a good man! It is so difficult to lead the rebel army to recover and defend Hulin County for more than four months. Now that the main force of the Kwantung Army has been transferred to attack him, I am afraid it will not last long."

"As long as everyone stands up and resists, the devils will definitely be driven out of China!"

"..."

Yu Peichen was attracted by their conversation and couldn't help but ask, "What magazine are you talking about?"

"Fei Gong, an anti-Japanese magazine founded by Mr. Zhou himself!" A passenger said, picking up "Fei Gong".

Yu Peichen asked, "Can I borrow it to take a look?"

The passenger smiled and said, "Take it and read it. Anyway, I've finished reading it, but remember to return it to me before getting off the bus."

"Thank you." Yu Peichen quickly took it.

The cover of this magazine is crimson, so red that it turns black, like blood that is gradually congealing. In the upper right corner of the cover are two small seal characters of "Fei Gong", next to which are written two lines of small characters: "Peace cannot be obtained by charity, peace should be fought for actively."

Yu Peichen opened the title page, and when she finished reading the preface written by Zhou Hexuan herself, she finally fully understood the purpose of this magazine.

The first part of the text is international current affairs, describing in detail the fascist regime in Germany, the 100,000 anti-Nazi demonstrations in Berlin at the beginning of the year, and the arson case that shocked the world in the German Reichstag. Then Zhou Hexuan personally wrote a commentary, predicting Hitler's domestic and international policies, and pointed out Hitler's fascist expansion ambitions.

The second part is the introduction of Japan's national conditions, which are provided by students studying in Japan. It describes in detail that Japan has been severely affected by the economic crisis, a large number of "villages without girls" have appeared, and the entire Japanese society is clamoring for aggression against China.

The third part is the situation in Northeast China, which not only describes the tragedy of the people in Northeast China, but also reports the heroic deeds of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Armed Forces, and at the same time exposes the cruel rule of the Kwantung Army and the Manchukuo government. For example, after the 29th Army Broadsword Squad caused huge casualties to the Japanese army, the Japanese army immediately caused a massacre near Xifengkou, wantonly killing the people in the surrounding villages and towns.

The fourth part is theoretical commentary. Zhou Hexuan introduces terms such as fascism, Nazism and militarism in detail, analyzes their similarities and differences, and points out the threat of fascism to the whole world.

The last part is the literature section. In addition to Zhou Hexuan's "Black Soil", there are three short stories, all of which describe the tragic reality of the people in Northeast China.

Before Yu Peichen had time to finish the magazine, the train had already arrived in Tianjin. The first thing she did after getting out of the car was to run to buy "Fei Gong" and squat down on the side of the road to read the whole magazine seriously.

"This magazine is great!" Yu Peichen thought excitedly.

Originally, she knew nothing about the situation in Europe and Japan, but after reading the magazine, her understanding of the world situation suddenly became clear. Especially in the Northeast, there have always been countless folk anti-Japanese heroes, and they never gave up resistance.

There is also Japan, the so-called Far East power, whose people's life is so miserable. In order to solve the economic crisis, they can't wait to invade China and want to suck the blood of the Chinese people to get out of the predicament.

This is a magazine that opens Chinese people's eyes to see the world!

Yu Peichen carefully put away the magazine, took it out and opened it again while walking, and re-read "Black Soil" while walking. She especially likes this novel, the portrayal of reality and humanity makes her feel shuddering, but at the same time extremely indignant.

With his uncle's handwritten letter, Yu Peichen came to the newspaper headquarters of "Ta Kung Pao". When she walked into the newspaper building, she suddenly saw two house numbers, one saying "Editorial Office of the Supplement of the Public", and the other saying "Editorial Office of "Fei Gong" Magazine".

Yu Peichen, who originally wanted to apply for the editorship of "Ta Kung Pao", suddenly turned around and walked into the editorial department of "Fei Gong" magazine, and asked, "Do you still need editors here?"
