After the outbreak of the October Revolution, the red regime was besieged by foreign forces and domestic reactionaries. The political situation in Ukraine is also unprecedented violence and turmoil. Zhu Laihe, who stayed at Paul's house, was an old Bolshevik. He was left in the town when the Red Army retreated. He Zhu came to teach Paul boxing and cultivated Paul's common revolutionary enthusiasm. Once, Paul himself was sent to prison for saving Zhu, and then the stupid enemy quickly put him in the wrong place. After getting out of prison, Paul jumped into Tonya's garden. Tonia likes Paul, who is enthusiastic, stubborn and strong-willed, and Paul is deeply attracted by tonia, which is pure, beautiful, neat and elegant.
Later, my brother Arqing sent Paul to Khartoum to join the Red Army. In the army, Paul became a cavalry and fought bravely. After the battle, he also likes to read novels such as The Gadfly and Spartacus, and tells them to his comrades whenever he has time. In a fierce battle, he was seriously injured in the head and was taken to the hospital. After leaving the hospital, Paul stayed with a relative in Tonya. He had an eye problem and couldn't go back to the front, but he immediately threw himself into all kinds of arduous work in the local area. Once attending a party of workers' comrades, Paul was laughed at and ridiculed by the workers because he went with tonia, and tonia was dressed beautifully and neatly. Paul realized that Tonya was not in the same class as himself, so he made up his mind to break off their feelings.
In order to supply urban timber, Paul took part in railway construction. Autumn rain, mud, heavy snow and frozen soil, the working conditions are getting worse and worse, and the harassment, disease and hunger of armed bandits also threaten Paul and his comrades. But the railway was completed as scheduled. Zhu, who has been promoted as a member of the provincial party Committee, was deeply moved by their revolutionary enthusiasm. He said, "This is how steel is tempered."
Because of his outstanding achievements, Paul was appointed secretary of the Youth League Committee of a railway factory. Lida, a political commissar of women, often helps Paul improve his consciousness and do a good job. Paul gradually fell in love with Rita, but sacrificed his second budding love on the grounds of revolution.
Paul was hospitalized again for pneumonia and recovered, but the doctor found a shrapnel wound on his spine. During his illness in his hometown, Paul paid tribute to his comrades-in-arms at the tomb of the martyrs. Deeply moved, he delivered a touching and inspiring speech: "A person's most precious thing is life ... that's how a person's life should be spent ..." After his illness, Paul devoted himself to revolutionary work. In his work, he resolutely fought against all kinds of non-mainstream ideas and bad styles, and was very sad about the deterioration of his comrade-in-arms Dubawa and resolutely criticized him. ...
Paul's constitution is getting worse and worse. 1924, the party organization had to unload all the burdens on him and let him rest for a long time. His eyesight is getting worse and worse. When I was recuperating at the seaside, I met Daya, the youngest daughter of a worker's family. At Daya's home, Paul encouraged Daya to rebel against her stubborn father and led her to join the Soviet Union. Dia and Paul are married.
1927, Paul was completely paralyzed and then went blind. He was once discouraged and wanted to commit suicide, but his strong revolutionary belief helped him out of the trough. Under extremely difficult conditions, Paul began his literary creation. 1934, with the help of his mother, wife and comrades-in-arms, his autobiographical novel How the Steel was Tempered was finally published! Paul is glad that he has a new revolutionary weapon-writing.
