Mao Zedong wants to learn from the heroes of Liang Shanbo
(Mao Zedong in 1919)
During the Mid-Autumn Festival in the sixth year of the Republic of China, Mao invited more than a dozen comrades from the "Volunteer Army" who guarded the First Normal University. Everyone pooled their money to buy mooncakes and fruits after they arrived on campus. Mountain viewing the moon.
When talking about the volunteers of each person, several of us compared Yan Fu and Ito Hirobumi's broad ambitions, and said that they will run for Congress and join the cabinet in the future, and hope that one day they can become China's Ito Hirobumi. Mao Wenzhi sneered and said: "This is no way! Republic (democracy) is fake! We are not the children of nobles and warlords. How can we get elected to the cabinet without money and power?" Everyone thinks it makes sense. Some
also said that they are preparing to take the Peking University entrance examination, then studying abroad, returning to be a professor, and saving the country with academics. Mao criticized him as "Mediocre". Some
said: "The victory of Japan and the victory of the generals are all due to elementary education. We are studying teachers and we should devote ourselves to national education to save China." Mao did not answer.
Everyone asked him: "Learning to do Ito Hirobumi, you said that this is no way; go abroad for further studies, come back to be a professor, and say you are mediocre. What are you going to do in the future?" He said, "Revolution!" , How to revolution? He said: "Liangshanbo is a hero and hero, and he has his own way."
At the end of the fourteenth year of the Republic of China, his husband was admitted to the Sun Yat-sen University in Moscow to study in Russia. Returned to China in July 16th.
returned to Shanghai, and I worked as a secretary at the National Labor University. Liu Kanyuan returned to Shanghai because he was attacked by the party headquarters in Jiangxi Province. He met me and asked if my perception of Russia had changed. I said:
Russia-
is not a flowery cluster , But Tiger Den Long Tan;
is still the enemy of imperialism, not the cradle of the proletariat.
That night, he washed the dust for me, and the two of them stayed in the hostel and talked for a long time. He suddenly asked me if I knew Mao Zedong had gone to Jinggangshan to become a "bandit". I said that Mao Zedong is by no means such a simple character. Liu also said: "It's not the old-style bandits, but the Communist Party." I asked him where Mao was a cadre? He said that Mao’s cadres were all trained by the Guangzhou Peasant Training Institute. I asked: "Where does Mao get weapons?" Liu said: "The spear team is the main one."

At this point, I suddenly realized that I couldn't help but slapped the table and shouted. Recalling what Mao Zedong said to me in the winter of the 14th year of the Republic of China, it shows that Mao Zedong has long ambitions. He was only expected to be a hero in Liangshanpo.
(Mao Zedong in his youth)
(Note: In the winter of the 14th year of the Republic of China, Mr. Bai Yu and his party were staying in Guangzhou to teach Russian before studying in Russia. At that time, Mao Zedong lived in Dongshan, Guangzhou and was the deputy head of the Propaganda Department. One evening. On my way, I met Mao Zedong and Yi Lirong (an old member of the Changsha Federation of Students, who has joined the Communist Party). Mao Dao: "We have all read your speech on Huangpu Memorial Week and are talking about it now. Russian? I won’t leave in a short time. Someday I will come to my house to talk!" I was surprised that he changed his cold attitude. Soon, I went to him, and he first asked me why I was resolutely anti-Communist? I listed the communist parties. He not only agreed with me, but also said that the Communist Party’s approach would definitely fail. I was very surprised and asked him why he said this? He said: “I know that Communist Party members make more mistakes than you, and the Communist Party has no organization. Basically, the Communists only know that they are high-ranking officials in Guangzhou, and they are arrogant. As long as the military authorities (referring to Mr. Jiang) speak, they are all done!" I asked him what he could do, and he said, "I have my own way. But I won’t comment!”)
