胡适留学日记_胡适【完结】(81)

  此刻,余要说上述言论完全是疯话。吾辈情绪激动,神经紧张,理智失常,可以说是得了“爱国癫”。诸位,在此危急关头,情绪激动是决无益处的。激动之情绪,慷慨激昂之爱国呼号,危言耸听之条陈,未尝有助于国。吾辈自称“学子”、“干材”,若只是“纸上”谈兵,则此举未免过于肤浅。

  以余观之,吾辈学子,远去祖国,爱莫能助;当务之急,当以镇静处之。让吾等各就本分,各尽责职;吾辈之责任乃是读书学习。不可让报章上所传之纠纷,耽误吾辈之学业。吾等正要严肃、冷静、不惊、不慌,安于学业,力争上流,为将来振兴祖国作好一番准备,只要她能幸免于难--余深信如此--若是不能,吾辈将为在废墟上重建家园而努力!

  诸位,这才是吾辈之责任!才是吾辈之当务之急!

  余以为,此刻言及对日作战,简直是发疯。我何以作战?主笔先生说,我有一百万敢决一死战之雄狮。且让大家来看一下事实:我仅有十二万士兵谈得上是“训练有素”的,然其装备甚为简陋。而且,我海军毫无战斗力:军中最大之战舰乃一三等巡洋舰,其排水吨位仅为四千三百吨。另外,军火又如何呢?我何以作战?

  第51章 民国四年(1915)二月十八日至六月七日(5)

  余赤诚以报祖国,此时言及作战,纯系一派胡言,愚不可及。其后果,不仅于国无所改观,而且所得只是任人蹂躏!任人蹂躏!再任人蹂躏!

  至于说到比国--那个英勇的比利时!诸位,余要披沥肝胆向你们陈述:螳臂挡车、以卵击石决不是英雄主义!更何况比国当时也不曾料想有今日之惨败。奉劝诸位读一读,由比国人查理·沙罗利博士撰写的《比利时如何拯救欧洲》一书吧。盖比利时深知,一旦战争爆发,英法两国必然赴援。加以列日和安特卫普享有全世界最坚固堡垒之美誉,比国人自信此二城市固若金汤有恃无恐。于是,比国人才为国家之荣誉而孤注一掷!试问,这是真正的勇敢吗?这是真正的英雄气概吗?

  诸位,看一看比国,想一想今日之比国人罢!试问,为这种英雄主义之“光彩”而作出全部之牺牲,值得吗?

  余并无指责比国人之意。在此,余想指明的是,比国并不值得中国仿效。任何人,若想硬要中国重蹈比国之覆辙,则无异于是对祖国之亵渎。

  综上所述,余再重申前言:切勿感情用事:让吾等各就本分,各尽责职,吾辈之责任乃是学习。

  远东问题最终解决之症结,不系于对日作战,不系于某些列强施加之外来干涉;不系于任何治标之方法,也不是由列强在华势力均衡或门户开放政策所造成的;更不系于采用日本之门罗主义;凡此种种皆不是最终解决之方法。真正、最终解决之道一定是另有法门--它较吾人今日所想象者当更为深奥。余也不知其在何处,只知它不在哪些地方罢了。还是让吾辈作些冷静、客观之研究吧!从长计议罢!

  深盼诸位在詈骂余之前,细读拙文,实不胜企祷之至!

  诸位之弟胡适谨上

  纽约,绮色佳

  读三月份《学生月报》已,已就寝矣,辗转不能成寐,披衣起坐,作此书至夜分二时半始睡。

  〔中译〕在做慈善事业方面,在处理个人事务、国内事务方面,耶教徒确实无愧为耶教徒。然而,一介入国际事务时,他们便摇身一变,不是耶教徒了。他们“小事拘谨,大事马虎”!只要这些自称信耶教之国家只认暴力,不认别的;只要他们对弱国之权利和权益不理不睬;只要他们仍置法律与正义于不顾,只管攫取国民和贸易收入,只管侵略别国领土--那么,耶教便不会成为世界上具有权威性之宗教,传教士之传道工作便不会持久地进行,一遇到战神马斯,便会被一扫而尽。
