"If China wants to become rich and strong, it should be the first to destroy Japan!"
As soon as this sentence was issued, it welcomed the heated discussion from all walks of life. Professor Ai Yuejin, who is known as the "Chinese hawk" and the founder of the military discipline of Nankai University, said this sentence.

He has devoted his whole life to teaching and educating people, and has buried a strong patriotism in the hearts of a generation of young people. His voice was resounding and his words were straightforward. In that well-known era, Professor Ai Yuejin used his true words and passionate speeches to instill patriotism in young people and stimulate their sense of national pride.

He has been quietly delivering positive energy to the new generation of patriotic youth in China. But such a revolutionary who dedicated himself to the motherland died at the age of 58 because of stomach cancer.
The reason why he has such deep feelings is inseparable from his childhood experience.
"Eagle" Ai Yuejin
Ai Yuejin was born into a revolutionary family in Tianjin in 1958. His father was a first-hand experience of the liberation war. He was influenced by his parents from an early age and was very patriotic. His father often told him about the development of the country. Therefore, Ai Yuejin had a strong interest in the Red Revolution and military theory since he was young.

When he was young, he took Premier Zhou Enlai as his idol, determined to be useful to the motherland. In order to follow his idol's footsteps, Nankai University became his goal.
Finally, after the college entrance examination, he was admitted to Nankai University, which was just the first step for him to follow his idol.

In order to realize his dream, he began to participate in speeches, learn etiquette, and practice his eloquence. With the blessing of pursuit and dreams, this shy young man gradually became enthusiastic.
His patriotic feelings led him to move forward. He joined the Party and carried forward his feelings. Under the guidance of predecessors and his own practice, he successfully stayed in Nankai University after graduation and became a new teacher who stayed in Nankai University to teach.

After staying in school, Ai Yuejin took the initiative to serve as a tutor of military theory courses. His pursuit is not only to become an expert in military theory, but also to pass on his warm patriotic feelings to more young people through lectures.

However, it was not easy to achieve this goal, so in constant exploration, Ai Yuejin gradually figured out a set of his own teaching methods, which greatly improved the teaching rate.

A great patriot
At first, his course was not popular with students, because as a theoretical course, compared with practical courses, this course was really boring.
Therefore, the students are not interested, and the other teachers who teach this course are also older, so the classroom that nobody cares about is not valued by the school at first.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2Fffbecf12j00seylfy0020d000xc00pap.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
However, Ai Yuejin was not discouraged because of this. Although he was a new teacher, he was also uneasy, but he still kept his positive attitude and gave a lively and enthusiastic speech on this course.
As a result, he is like a new "missile" that detonates the old world, exploding, and arousing different sparks in this course - his words are passionate, his posture is elegant and vivid, and his speech is humorous!
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2Ff0636597j00seylfz001ed000xm00mep.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
He brought famous words into his class, and he would blurt out some words that students would remember for life, such as his saying that "cannon is used to measure land area", which is still widely spread today, making people remember this straightforward and point-to-point style.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2Fecbddcedj00seylg1001wd000xc00m8p.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
In the face of students' questions, he never gives perfunctory answers. Although his words are tough, they may still cause some misunderstandings, and he just tells his theory frankly.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2F7f6843faj00seylg2001wd000zk00smp.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
When a student questioned the question "Why should we study military theory in peacetime? We really don't like fighting and killing", his answer was also so clear and true:
"No country has ever aspired to experience war on its own, and we have never studied military theory in order to launch a war. But the international community is a complex world, and only those with strong military strength have a say, and will not be crushed by others as weak. Justice is only in the hands of powerful people. It is the so-called weak country has no diplomacy, and national defense is strength. "
As soon as this remark was made, it attracted countless applause.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2Fa3b3394aj00seylg3000xd000o700ghp.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
As an observer of the world pattern and a mentor of military theory, Ai Yuejin pays attention to reality and understands reality. As a teacher of students, he also patiently answers the questions raised by students and fulfills his duty as a teacher.
But it is not easy to be a professor in the College of Marxism of Nankai University!

Patriots who want to be strong in life
As a tutor who has insight into the world pattern and military theory, Ai Yuejin sometimes opens his mouth and utters some surprising "outrageous words"!
He once said frankly in class: the first thing for China to become rich and strong is to eliminate Japan! His amazing speech shocked the students. Some people expressed their admiration for his bravery, while others felt afraid and disgusted.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2F07e5432ej00seylg5002jd000m800typ.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
At that time, when China and Japan established good diplomatic relations, and during the period of trade cooperation between the two countries, this statement also pushed him to the top of the wave. As a new Chinese who has experienced the War of Resistance against Japan and World War II, how can we forget Japan's invasion of our motherland and countless crimes committed by Japan? It's just that Japan also distorts the facts and denies its aggression against our people.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2F0ce96c7aj00seylg70025d0010o00myp.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
Professor Ai Yuejin's speech was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, which made everyone pay close attention to him, and public opinion rose all over the place at once. It has attracted numerous criticisms and objections, and even some people have wantonly misinterpreted his remarks. The more things become worse, only Ai Yuejin had to explain.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2F6ec5383cj00seylg8002fd0010o00n0p.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
Ai Yuejin's original intention was not to provoke anti Japanese sentiment among Chinese people. What he said was to "destroy small Japan" was just to hope that Japan could face up to history and eliminate the remnants of Japanese militarism. This is not only what the Chinese people need, but also what they need to save a new generation of Japanese young people.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2F44164b2fj00seylg9000rd000nb00dwp.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
Although the war has ended, Japan's remaining militarist party members have not been cleaned up. If they ignore them, it is hard to guarantee that they will not come back in the future!
However, there are still some public opinions who are unwilling to let go of any controversial academic stunt. There are still some people who maliciously spread distorted information and speculate about his ulterior motives with the thickest colored glasses. So Ai Yuejin chose to ignore these theories. Since he could not stop others from speculating maliciously, he refused these malices and retained his fearless courage.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2F5654892dj00seylga0042d001c000u0p.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
He is a professor who dares to face the public opinion and speak frankly. He is also a person who is passionate about his career and selfless. He has always been committed to the propaganda and teaching of China's national defense knowledge and military awareness. In 2006, he successfully declared Nankai University as the only military master's program in non military colleges in the military teaching and research department of the country.
![](https://nimg.ws.126.net/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0612%2F632514d2j00seylgc0022d000zk00hgp.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg)
However, no matter how fierce the person is, he or she will try his or her best. No one can escape the attack of illness. In 2014, Professor Ai Yuejin, who had a stomachache for a long time, entered the hospital, but was diagnosed as having advanced gastric cancer.
After he was diagnosed, he calmly accepted his fate, and determined to devote the rest of his life to his work. Regardless of anyone's dissuasion, he worked hard to the last moment of his life. Today, many people still miss him.

Conclusion:
As a communist fighter, Ai Yuejin always remembers Mao Zedong Thought and strives for national defense education all his life. Even after he is diagnosed with cancer, he still insists on teaching and educating people. As he once said, dignity is only above the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon. This sentence still inspires every young person today.
