" one two · 9 " anti-Japanese national salvation movement
broke out!
After the North China Incident , the national crisis was unprecedentedly serious. The Peking student at the forefront of national defense felt deeply that "North China is so big that it can't accommodate a calm desk." On December 6, 1935, the Peking Student Federation held a representative meeting and passed and issued the "Declaration on the Founding of the Peking Student Federation". Immediately, 15 universities and universities in Pingjin jointly issued a power to oppose "anti-communist autonomy", demanding the government to attack the traitors, Yin Rugeng, and mobilize the people of the whole country to resist Japan's invasion. On December 7, 1935, under the leadership of the Beijing Provisional Working Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Peking Student Union decided to hold a major student petition on the 9th to oppose "North China Autonomy".
On the morning of December 9, students from Tsinghua University , Yanjing University , Northeastern University , Peking No. 1 Girls' Middle School, Beijing Normal University Women's Affiliated Middle School and Beijing Normal University girls' Affiliated Middle School broke through the military and police and went to Zhongnanhai, where the Executive Yuan's Ping Office was located, to petition. On the way, students from colleges and universities such as Fu Ren University and Peking University joined the parade, and the team increased to 20,000 to 3,000. At the southern entrance of Wangfujing, the students were once again attacked by military and police sticks, whips and water dragons. The anger of patriotic students erupted like a volcano, fought with the military and police and fought back. Many students were injured and arrested, and the demonstration team was dispersed.
In order to protest the authorities' suppression, students from all schools in Peking have implemented a general strike from the 10th. At the same time, students and workers from large and medium-sized cities such as Tianjin, Baoding , Taiyuan, Hangzhou, Shanghai, Wuhan, Chengdu, Chongqing responded positively, and held patriotic rallies and demonstrations, or issued declarations and telegrams to support the patriotic actions of Peking students. The Shaanxi-Gansu-Gansu-South Student Union also issued a response power, and people from all walks of life in the Soviet area gathered to support the anti-Japanese and national salvation movement of students from all over the country.
1935 On December 18, 1935, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions issued a letter to workers in the movement to aid students in Peking to save the country, calling on men and women workers from all walks of life and factories across the country to gather a mass meeting to protest the traitors' betrayal of North China and massacre and arrest patriotic students. On December 21, the Shanghai Federation of Trade Unions sent a telegram to support Peking students, calling on compatriots across the country to rise unanimously, gather the power of the entire nation, oppose the existence of any pseudo-organization, and protect the country in order to safeguard sovereignty. Guangzhou railway workers, Shanghai postal and railway workers held a rally and issued a telegram to demand a declaration of war on Japan. Patriots such as Lu Xun, , Soong Ching Ling and praised the heroic spirit of patriotic students and donated money to support students' anti-Japanese and national salvation movement. Overseas Chinese also support patriotic students in various ways.
Beijing students' patriotic struggle hit the arrogance of Japanese imperialism, exposed the treason of the Kuomintang authorities, widely publicized the anti-Japanese propositions of the Communist Party of China and the Kuomintang to stop civil war and unanimously go abroad, received support and response from patriots from all walks of life, and promoted the development of the anti-Japanese and national salvation movement. For a time, the horn of anti-Japanese and national salvation was heard everywhere on both sides of the Yellow River, from all over the country.
This "January 9th" anti-Japanese and national salvation movement organized by patriotic youth students under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, publicly exposed the conspiracy of Japanese imperialism to invade China and annex North China, cracked down on the compromise and surrender policy of the Kuomintang government, and greatly promoted the awakening of the Chinese people.As Mao Zedong pointed out, the 12th and 9th Movement "is a movement for mobilizing the Anti-Japanese War, a movement for preparing ideas and cadres, a movement for mobilizing the entire nation, and has great historical significance." Young students in Peking broke through all high-pressure forces and strongly demonstrated the strong will of the whole Chinese public unwilling to be slaves of the country to be destroyed. It has laid a new milestone in the history of the Chinese national liberation movement and has always carved indelible traces.
Time flies, time flies, the wheel of history slowly passes, and countless things turn into dust and are buried in the long river of memory. Time has diluted many things, but it is undeniable that there are always some people and things worth remembering and worth engraving on the scroll of memory. Today, 84 years ago, countless young people took to the streets, running back and forth for the bright future of the motherland, and never resigned to death. At this moment, we are standing at the forefront of history, shouldering the important task of reforming and strengthening the military and rejuvenating China. Behind us are the eager expectations and instructions of the people of the motherland. This has further encouraged young officers and soldiers to inherit and carry forward the red genes of the faith and loyalty of revolutionary ancestors, and has also prompted them to do their best and spare no effort to join the craze for strong military training and preparation.
