北伐中的宣传战

The Propaganda War in Northern Expedition

北伐军出师后节节获胜,离不开广大民众的支持。为了动员民众,北伐宣传队运用了丰富多样的宣传形式,其中虽然存在着一些问题,未必能完全达到预期的效果,但还是起到了很大的动员作用。在大势所趋下,北方也仿效南方设立宣传机构,开始反赤宣传,其初期亦取得相当效果,但后来则逐渐偃旗息鼓。实际上,无论是北方还是南方的民众,他们体认更多的是交战双方的所作所为,而绝非仅是宣传本身。

The successes by the northern expeditionary army resulted from the supports from the masses of the people. To mobilize the people,the northern expedition propaganda teams adopted various means. Due to some problems they did not necessarily achieve the desired effect. However,the teams still played a great role in mobilization. Following the trend,the North imitated the South to set up propaganda teams and made some initial fruits. But later these teams gradually lowered their banners and muffled their drums. In fact,what could be sensed by the people from the north or the south was what was done by both fighting sides rather than the publicizing itself.
