　　《中国共产党人 谷文昌（英文）》：
　　Two terms - revolution and liberation - were on the lips of many in China during the Chinese People's War of Resistance against }apanese Aggression （1937-
　　1945）， but taking practical action to acLueve revolution and liberation was no simple matter - It could cost you your life. So what d/d revolution and liberationmean to a peasant? Gu Wenchang， a symbol of a generation， yearned to shake off poverty and slavery， live a worthy life， and expel the Japanese aggressors. He upderstood these revolutionary principles， and he bravely spread these ideas to the peasants in and around Nanwan Hamlet. He did not join any political party or progressive organization at that time， but through his own experience and his own feelings， he became politically awakened.
　　He described real events he had experienced to his peasant friends in and around Nanwan Hamlet. “I saw the Eighth Route Army bring water and rice to us peasants and help us clean the yard. Some of them even provided us with medical treatment.”
　　They asked， “Is it really that good?”
　　“I have seen it with my own eyes.” Gu Wenchang did not get carried away “Just think about it. Wherever the Eighth Route Army arrives， the villains run away， or they will get caught……”
　　They said， “Of course the evil are afraid of the good ... But who will lead the revolution and the fight against the Japanese in Nanwan Hamlet?”
　　“Someone will，” answered Gu. “It is just a matter of time. When that time comes， we must unite and devote ourselves to the revolution……
　　The mindset of the Chinese peasants in the rrud-20th century， when they began to accept the idea of revolutionary theory， was simple enough - Revolution meant survival. It was hoped that the revolution would ensure that their basic needs were met. The targets of the revolution were despotic landlords， localty-rants， and evil gentry who had long oppressed the peasants. Few of the peasants knew Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin， and even the name of Mao Zedong was un-familiar to many until the revolution began to achieve penetration and success.
　　In September 1934， Gu Wenchang was 19 years old. As winter approached，in order to protect his foot-bound wife and three sons from starvation and cold，his father Gu Jihuo once again climbed up the cliff， carrying a wooden frame on his back， a machete on his waist， and a long rope on his shoulders. He had al-ready experienced countless such days， and he could not have expected this to be his last. But Gu Jihuo fell from a substantial height. Gu Xiuzhen， his eldest son，watched helplessly as his father fellin front of his eyes.
　　Gu Jihuo lay semi-conscious across his son's shoulders， listening to his son's heavy footsteps. With bewildered eyes still open， he remained consaous until he saw the outline of his home.
