Zhang Boling in the early 20th century

Zhang Boling's father, Zhang Jiu'an (張久庵), was born in the 13th year of Daoguang (1833) and was a well-known local scholar. Later, he was hired by the Wen Family Hall in Yixingbu as a school teacher and made a living as a teacher. Zhang Boling was enlightened by his father at an early age, and he studied with his father in the Wen family house, and had constant contacts with the Wen family.

The Wen family of Yixingbu has been shangwu for generations, and the fifth Wen Changpu was a wujinshi during the Daoguang period and served as the commander-in-chief of Dengzhou in Shandong. Wen Changpu's son Wen Lianxiu abandoned Wu Congwen and founded the Wen Family House with his wife Xu Zhensu, starting from the cultivation of his own children and teaching the essence of traditional Chinese culture. From the Wen family of the official eunuch family, the idea of loyalty to the king and serving the country is extremely strong. In 1885, the Sino-French War ended in the cowardly compromise of the Qing government, and Wen's mother Xu Zhensu, believing that it was "a great shame and great humiliation", took the lead in proposing to "abolish the imperial examination and take the road of industrial salvation of the country", and ordered his son Wen Shilin, 15, to give up the imperial examination and be admitted to the Beiyang Marine Teachers School in preparation for his daily use in the country. Zhang Boling often went in and out of the Wen family, and under the influence of the Wen family's thought, the 14-year-old Zhang Boling was also admitted to the Beiyang Marine Teachers' School in 1890.

In the 1920s, Zhang Boling gave a speech to the Scouts of Nankai School

In 1914, World War I began, and domestic warlords competed for power and profit. The world is worried about "can such a country still be saved, where is China's road?" On October 23, 1916, at the invitation of the Fengtian (Shenyang) YMCA, Zhang Boling gave a speech entitled "Hope for China". He began by vowing: "China will not die!" ”

He preached, "It is a fallacy that people say that China's mountains and rivers are broken and that there is no hope. How can China have no hope? China has great promise. The hope is, I! "I hope that Chinese will not complain about themselves, nor will they complain about others and count on others." Everyone must be self-reliant, as long as everyone has a self, China will not die! Sacrifice starts from me, and a strong country starts from me, I hope that from now on everyone can say that China will not die, there is me! Zhang Boling's speech caused the audience to applaud again and again, shaking people's hearts. Among them, the most touched is 15-year-old Zhang Xueliang, "China is not dead, there is me!" This oath left an unforgettable mark on his mind, and out of admiration and reverence for Zhang Boling, they became good friends.

In September 1935, when the students were starting school, Zhang Boling asked the students three patriotic questions in his speech: "Are you Chinese?" "Do you love China?" "Would you like China to be good?" These three questions and sentences are deafening and deafening, and they directly hit the souls of students. Zhang Boling told the students, "If you are Chinese, love China, and are willing to be good to China, then you must get rid of the problem of selfishness and narrow-mindedness, unite for the country and the public, and start from yourself!" Zhang Boling's speech aroused the patriotic fighting spirit of enthusiastic young people, and many young people threw themselves into the torrent of anti-Japanese resistance.

The xiangqiandian tour group traveled two columns of three or four thousand miles to Kunming

In July 1937, Tianjin fell, and Peking University in Beiping was also occupied by the Japanese army. In order to preserve the essence of Chinese national education, Peking University, Tsinghua University and Nankai University moved south to Changsha to form the National Changsha Provisional University. Just one month after the start of school, the Changsha school site was destroyed by Japanese aircraft, and the school decided to move east. The students trekked for more than two months, traveling 3,000 to 4,000 miles, crossing the three provinces of Xiangqian and Yunnan to Kunming. In this Long March, not a single student was left behind, completing "the greatest Long March in the history of Chinese education." National Changsha Union University was thus renamed National Southwest United University.
