为什么数万青年奔赴延安

Why Did Tens of Thousands of Youth Head to Yan’an

抗战时期，奔赴延安的青年是一道独特风景线。

During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the youth heading to Yan’an boasted a unique scenery line.

延安

延安，像一块巨大的磁石，把许多追求进步的青年吸引来了。据统计，抗战后到延安的知识分子总共4万余人。这些奔赴延安的有志青年，大都家境殷实，有着良好的教育背景，在当时可以预期美好的“个人前程”。还有一部分人更为特殊，是不远万里的爱国华侨青年。

Yan’an, like a huge magnet, attracted many young people who was pursuing progress. According to statistics, more than 40,000 intellectuals arrived in Yan’an after the Anti-Japanese War, most of whom were from well-off families and had a good educational background. At that time, they could expect a bright “personal future.” There were also young overseas Chinese who were so patriotic that they travelled far and wide.

青年奔赴延安

奔赴延安的路充满重重困难，甚至有生命危险。梁漱溟形容通往延安的路：“车是军用大卡车。路是军用公路，而自西安往北，愈走愈高，缺乏桥梁涵洞，车行危险而且费事。”

The road to Yan’an was rife with various difficulties and even life-threatening dangers. Liang Shuming described the road: “The car is a large military truck. The road is a military highway, but from Xi’an to the north, it goes higher and higher without bridges and culverts. Thus, the traffic to Yan’an is dangerous and troublesome.”

青年奔赴延安

为什么这么多人义无反顾地奔赴延安？摄影家吴印咸的答案是延安乃“理想所在”：“我看到毛泽东主席、朱德总司令等人身穿粗布制服出现在延安街头，和战士、老乡唠家常，谈笑风生……我被深深地感动了。”丁玲说“这是乐园”。“我们才到这里半年，说不上伟大建设，但街衢清洁，植满槐桑；没有乞丐，也没有卖笑的女郎；不见烟馆，找不到赌场。百事乐业，耕者有田。”

Why did so many people rush to Yan’an without hesitation? Photographer Wu Yinxian’s answer was that Yan’an was the “ideal place”: “I saw Chairman Mao Zedong, Commander-in-Chief Zhu De and others in coarse-cloth uniforms appearing on the streets of Yan’an and chatting with soldiers and fellow villagers. They were laughing and talking... I was deeply moved.” Ding Ling said, “Yan’an is a paradise.” “We have only been here for half a year. Although it is not a great construction, the streets are clean and planted with locus trees and mulberry; there are no beggars and prostitutes, no opium-taken places and casinos. Everything is harmonious with the policy of land to the tillers .”

毛泽东的答案是什么呢？1940年，毛泽东在《团结一切抗日力量，反对反共顽固派》的讲演中作出了回答。答案是延安有“十个没有”：这里一没有贪官污吏，二没有土豪劣绅，三没有赌博，四没有娼妓，五没有小老婆，六没有叫化子，七没有结党营私之徒，八没有萎靡不振之气，九没有人吃磨擦饭，十没有人发国难财。

What was Mao Zedong’s answer? In 1940, Mao Zedong gave his answer in the speech “Unite All Anti-Japanese Forces and Oppose the Anti-Communist Diehards.” He said that there were “ten noes” in Yan’an: no corrupt officials, no local tyrants and evil gentry, no gambling, no prostitutes, no wives, no beggars, no gangsters, no malaise, no troublemakers, no one cashing in on national calamity.
