Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

The three leaders fell silent again

Li Yan stood up and said, "In the past hundred years, our Chinese people have..."

“The reason why we have been repeatedly invaded by foreign races”

“It’s because we closed our country to the outside world.”

"The most intuitive"

"It makes us fall behind in economy, military and culture."

"What's more serious is the closed-mindedness"

"Not only has it reduced the pioneering spirit of the entire nation, but it has also made people lack the courage to innovate."

“It is also easy to form narrow-minded ideas and prejudices.”

“So China wants to become stronger.”

“We must first break the shackles of thought”

“Establishing new ideological cognition”

The tall middle-aged man nodded

Said: "You have been talking about the liberation of thought"

“I agree with this.”

“I also agree that talent is important.”

“But you also said that.”

“Many of us ordinary people are uneducated.”

“Not only do ordinary people not understand, but even our soldiers and cadres don’t understand.”

“We just can’t get through.”

"Do you have any specific ideas?"

Li Yan said directly: "Yes"

"I'm on Meishan Mountain"

“I’ll first come up with a series of slogans.”

“Just like technology is the primary productive force”

“Respect technology, respect talents”

"Whether it's politics, military, economy, law, etc."

“There are corresponding slogans in all aspects”

"Let people first have a correct outlook on life, values ​​and world view"

"But at the beginning, whether it was the common people or our own soldiers, commanders, and cadres..."

“I don’t quite understand it.”

"It's ok"

“We’ll verify it with facts.”

"For example, I tell people that they can raise chickens, ducks and geese without using grain."

“They did not believe”

"Then I'll feed them earthworms, locusts, and wild grasses for them to watch."

“Practice makes perfect”

“People see the results”

“You will naturally believe it.”

“They will accept change.”

"To enable everyone to open their minds as quickly as possible"

“We not only establish various schools and experimental bases”

“We also implement various incentive measures.”

Then Li Yan talked about the construction corps in Meishan.

Li Yan continued, "Also, our ideological emancipation is a gradual process."

"As we say in the old days, a good store of food will teach you etiquette."

“The first thing people care about is how to have enough food and warm clothes.”

“Then let’s start by changing people’s livelihoods.”

“Then comes ideological guidance.”

......

As Li Yan spoke more and more

The three leaders, including Political Commissar Fang, are becoming increasingly clear.

Li Yan concluded by saying: "A country's strength is multifaceted."

“Politics, economy, and military are all indispensable”

"I'm talking about ideological liberation"

"Break free from the constraints of habitual forces and subjective prejudices, study new situations, and solve new problems"

"Let ideas and concepts break free from the shackles and constraints of old habits"

"Combining the subjective world's thinking and consciousness with the changing objective reality"

......

The conversation lasted from noon till late at night.

After everyone leaves

The tall middle-aged man looked at Li Yan deeply and said, "You have such thoughts?"

“I am very relieved”

"But this also proves your political immaturity."

“Politics is not just about ideas and cognition”

“It is not a single existence.”

"This also involves the balance between nations, between rights, between relationships, and between human nature."

“Besides, everything is not set in stone.”

"If China were unified now"

“What you said is very valuable.”

“But now we are in a special period of war.”

“What you said is very dangerous.”

"China is so big, there must be people who share your ideas."

"Early Republic of China"

"A large number of famous patriotic industrialists have emerged"

"The most famous is the Southern Zhang and Northern Zhou"

"However, due to warlord separatism, frequent civil wars, foreign economic aggression, bureaucratic capitalist exploitation, and a weak national economic foundation,

"These industries failed to save the country."

"And if you want to liberate your mind, you can solve all problems."

“This is also wrong.”

"China produces many talented people"

“Do you think no one else has the same idea as you?”

“Yes, and a lot.”

“They once had a wave of ideological enthusiasm.”

“But they don’t have the strength.”

“It harmed the interests of those in power”

“And this person in power is not just one person.”

“It’s not a certain class.”

“But this era”

“So they all ended up failing.”

"China in this era has been asleep for too long"

“I’ve been sick for too long.”

"Becoming strong doesn't happen overnight"

“Also, you have to know that each of us has limited time and energy.”

“It’s impossible to do everything well at once”

“So there’s a question of priorities here.”

“Technologically strong nation is not the main issue”

“Emancipating the mind is not the main issue”

“Economic development is not the main issue either.”

"But stability and unity"

...

Following the words of the tall middle-aged man

Li Yan was becoming more and more panicked

I thought everything I thought and did was right.

So I said so much today regardless of the cost

Even at the risk of sacrificing one's own political life

I just want to use my own method quickly

Change the current situation of poverty and weakness in China

But I ignored the big picture

I also forgot that illness comes like a mountain falling and goes away like a thread being pulled out.

Even more arrogant to think that he came from the future

What you say and think is right

I am still too naive.

Li Yan wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Chief"

"I was wrong"

The tall middle-aged man looked at Li Yan

Nod

The muscles on my face are also relaxed.

Laughed and said: "Haha"

"You admitted your mistake so quickly"

“This is not the Li Yan I remember.”

“It is inevitable for a person to make mistakes during his growth process.”

"When I was your age"

“Also to find a way to save the country”

“I took a lot of detours”

"I've dug the ground, worked as a teacher, served in the military, and even worked as a worker making soap."

“I plan to study medicine later.”

"In the end, I found that none of these could save the country."

“But it’s not a bad thing.”

“At least let me know that these roads are blocked.”

“It also allows me to think more deeply.”

The tall middle-aged man patted Li Yan's shoulder.

He smiled and said, “So…”

“Young people should not be afraid of making mistakes”

“If you make a mistake, just correct it.”

“Don’t get depressed.”

Li Yan listened to the words of the tall middle-aged man

This is how I feel relieved

Nodding heavily

Said: "Chief"

“I will never be depressed.”

The tall middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction

But he pretended to be unhappy and said: "There are no outsiders here."

"Why are you still calling me Chief?"

Li Yan scratched his head and smiled and said, "Uncle"

The tall and strong middle-aged man smiled and said, "When will you and Miss Xu get married?"

Li Yan said "Uh"

The tall middle-aged man said: "Why don't you agree?"

"You kidnapped the girl."

"My grandfather has already sent me a letter urging me to do so."

"You are still here pretending to be confused."

Li Yan didn't know what to say for a moment

The tall and strong middle-aged man said: "I know that Miss Xu's grandfather is from the Red Gate."

"But Xu Moyu is not..."

“Don’t worry”

"Since you call me uncle"

"Then I have decided on your marriage with Xu Moyu."

"It will be held in three days"
