Communists went to the Nangong to give lectures
With the in-depth influence of the May Fourth Movement and the New Culture Movement, a magnificent ideological movement with the propaganda of Marxism as the mainstream, including various socialist ideological trends, arose throughout the country. During this period, some revolutionary intellectuals with rudimentary communist ideas saw the tremendous role of the proletariat from the bitter lessons of the May Fourth Movement, gradually realized the source of revolutionary strength in the course of many major struggles led by the Party in the early days, and resolved to carry out Marxist propaganda and organizational work among the masses of workers and peasants. In this situation, a group of revolutionary intellectuals successively went to the Nangong to spread Marxism.
In February 1929, Liu Xian, who joined the Communist Party of China in the Baoding Second Division, went to Nangong County Middle School (Liu Xian had served as the secretary of the central county party committee of Lixian County) to teach Chinese literature on behalf of the communists (later the director of training). The first lesson he taught was Mr. Lu Xun's "Hometown", and the second lesson was "White Light". After that, Liu Xian successively taught the development process of the Kuomintang and the split of the Cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and introduced progressive books and Content related to Marxism to progressive students, as well as the political ideas of the Communist Party. Liu Xianzeng's teaching activities have played a good guiding role among progressive students.
In March 1929, Zhang Yilin, who had lost contact with the party organization, set off from his native Huoqiu County, Anhui Province, and after a long journey to the Nangong, he served as a Teachers' Training Institute and a Chinese language teacher at the county middle school. After Zhang Yilin entered the school, he received students extensively, distributed revolutionary books and periodicals, actively disseminated progressive ideas, and based on the content of the texts, linked with the social reality of nangong, expounded revolutionary principles, and disseminated the basic theoretical knowledge of Marxism. He successively taught Li Dazhao's "Organization from Vertical to Horizontal Organization" and Chen Duxiu's "The Spirit of Hunan People" and other famous chapters, and also successively recounted some articles on the "Loose-Leaf Anthology" published by the Enlightened Bookstore and articles such as "Under the Mountain of Yuelu" and "The Sorrow of the Waque" written with his own personal feelings. In addition, he also organized many lectures and lectures to analyze the various shortcomings of the real society with facts, and pointed out that only by taking the road of the October Revolution was the only way out for China.
Inspired and influenced by Zhang Yilin, the revolutionary atmosphere of the Nangong Normal Training Institute became stronger and stronger, and many students wrote poems and essays attacking the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang county authorities, and some students even proposed to join the Communist Party of China in their essays. In the second half of 1929, the Nangong Normal Training Institute first established the "Student Self-Government Association" and issued the "Letter to Primary School Teachers". Under the leadership of the "Student Self-Government Association", the vast number of young students at the Teachers' Training Institute waged a tit-for-tat struggle against the county education authorities. In the autumn of 1929, Ju Haifeng, the director of the education bureau, in order to squander the funds for education, personally went to the teacher training institute and forced the students to build a playground outside the city in the trench, and the students resisted it on the grounds that they had no tools. In order to achieve his goal, Ju Haifeng immediately sent someone to borrow many tools and forced the students to work immediately. The "Student Self-Government Association" decided to thoroughly expose the attempt of Ju Haifeng and his gang to wantonly squander education funds, and was determined to fight to the end. Ju Haifeng saw that the crowd was angry and difficult to offend, so he had to stop it.
Zhang Yilin's progressive activities caused great alarm in the Kuomintang Nangong County government. In July 1929, the Kuomintang Nangong County Government detained Zhang Yilin in the Nangong County Public Security Bureau on the pretext of mailing "Soviet Russian Drama Collection" to Zhang Yilin in Dangtu County, Anhui Province, and later escorted him to Daming. Zhang Yilin's arrest aroused great indignation among the teachers and students of the teacher training institute and the county middle school, and also aroused the strong dissatisfaction of Zhuang Ziyi, the principal of the county middle school (the contradiction between Zhuang Ziyi and the Kuomintang county government was also one of the reasons for zhang Yilin's arrest). In order to rescue Zhang Yilin, Song Zhiguang specially went to Texas to send a telegram to Li Jiye, a writer of the unnamed society; Liu Zhicun, a progressive teacher at the Teachers' Training Institute (later renamed the Rural Normal School), accompanied Zhang Yilin's lover to Beiping to carry out rescue activities; Liu Xian went to Beiping after the summer vacation to carry out rescue activities; and Zhuang Ziyi also participated in the rescue work. After many rescues, Zhang Yilin was released and left nangong to teach at a girls' middle school in Beiping.
After Zhang Yilin, Song Zhenhuan (also known as Song Richang, a member of the Communist Party who participated in the Nanchang Uprising, also known as Song Richang, Zi Cangsong, and Huoqiu, Anhui) and others successively served as Chinese language teachers at the Nangong Normal Training Institute. Like Zhang Yilin, they also taught students the works of Lu Xun, Guo Moruo, Jiang Guangci and others, as well as some progressive works of the Soviet Union. In addition, he also talked about dr. Akira Kawakami's "Outline of Economics" in Japan.
The lectures of Liu Xianzeng, Zhang Yilin, Song Zhenhuan, and others disseminated revolutionary ideas and conducted enlightenment education for students, enabling young students to have a preliminary understanding of Marxism, creating conditions for the establishment of the Nangong Party organization, and laying an ideological foundation.
