One day in January 1950, two young men dressed as peasants came down from Chaotianmen Ferry in Chongqing, and they came to a village entrance in The town of Inch Beach, where a middle-aged man was waiting for them both.
After the three people met, the middle-aged man took two young people to the door of a family in the village, and the middle-aged man began to knock on the door, shouting in his mouth: "Big Brother Liu Qiangdong, are you at home?" ”
After a while, a woman came to open the door, saw the middle-aged man, and smiled: "Zhang Laosi, looking for Qiangdong to drink again?" Haven't had enough of drinking last time? ”
The middle-aged man said: "Yes, last time I drank and lost, this time I brought two offspring who could drink, and accompanied Brother Qiangdong to drink well!" ”
The woman took Zhang Laosi and two young people to the house, there was a man in his 30s sitting in the room, after seeing Zhang Laosi, he was about to laugh with him, when he suddenly saw Zhang Laosi followed by two strange young people, immediately his face changed dramatically, and he asked in panic: "Old Fourth, these two are..."
Without waiting for Zhang Laosi to answer, the two young men suddenly pulled out their pistols from their bodies and said loudly, "Liu Zhiqin! We are a police officer of the Ministry of Public Security of the Chongqing Military Control Commission, and you have been arrested! ”
As soon as the man heard the three words "Liu Zhiqin," he jumped up like an electric shock, but immediately defended: "Comrade, you are mistaken, my name is Liu Qiangdong, not Liu Zhiqin!" ”
The police continued to point a gun at him, took out a pair of handcuffs, and said: "It doesn't matter what your name is, honestly follow us, your fox tail can't be hidden!" ”
When the man heard this, he had no choice but to put on the handcuffs in frustration and follow the two policemen away.
So, who is this Liu Zhiqin, who calls himself "Liu Qiangdong"?
Liu Zhiqin, born in 1917 in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, to a landlord family, grew up stubborn, and when he grew up, his father spent money to open up relations, sent to the security regiment as a platoon leader, and did all kinds of bad things.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Liu Zhiqin came to Chongqing and was favored by Xu Yuanju, the head of the military command secret service, and became a military command agent. Because Liu Zhiqin was fierce and fierce, he liked to use all kinds of torture to deal with revolutionary volunteers, and soon became famous in the military command.
In September 1949, the People's Liberation Army approached Chongqing, and the reactionaries launched a final frenzy and began to massacre imprisoned revolutionaries on a large scale, and the bloodthirsty Liu Zhiqin was naturally an important participant in this massacre, for example, on November 14, they killed more than 30 people such as Jiang Jie, Li Qinglin, Qi Liang, and others at the Lanya Execution Ground of Geleshan Radio, committing heinous crimes!
On November 27, Chongqing was about to usher in liberation, and the reactionaries created an even bigger tragedy, they secretly slaughtered hundreds of revolutionaries imprisoned in the Baigongguan and Zha di Dong concentration camps, which is the famous Chongqing "11.27" massacre!
Among them, Liu Zhiqin held a submachine gun in his hand and fired wildly, and I don't know how many martyrs fell under the muzzle of his gun!
Three days later, Chongqing was liberated, and the people's government immediately set up the Ministry of Public Security of the Military Control Commission, began to investigate the heinous crimes committed by the reactionaries, and immediately launched an operation to arrest the murderers.
At this time, Liu Zhiqin, like a dog that lost his family, had nowhere to escape, so he consulted with his wife Li Xiuying, because Li Xiuying was a local in Chongqing, and his home was in the town of Inch Beach, so they decided to flee back to Li Xiuying's mother's house and hide in anonymity.
Therefore, Liu Zhiqin, alias "Liu Qiangdong", followed his wife back to his mother's house, and lied to the outside world that they had lost money in business in other places, so they had to come back to farm. The villagers all knew Li Xiuying, so no one cared.
Li Xiuying used to have an old friend in the village, called Zhang Laosi, when he saw Li Xiuying return, he often came to her house to visit the door, and soon became a buddy with Liu Qiangdong, because the two had a common hobby, that is, drinking, so the two often drank together and bragged.
One day, Zhang Laosi came to Liu Qiangdong to drink again, both of them were a little confused, Zhang Laosi casually asked: "Brother Dong, you are a person who has gone south and north, tell me what strange people and strange things you have encountered outside." ”
Liu Qiangdong has been holding back at home these days, and he is about to be broken, so he used the strength of wine to show off his "glorious history" to Zhang Laosi.
Of course, Liu Qiangdong was a secret agent after all, and he was still a little vigilant, and did not say that it was his own business, but made up a name.
Zhang Laosi is a person who has never seen the world, after listening to those messy things, he feels very incredible, and he scolds that person for doing bad things and must not die well!
Liu Qiangdong heard Zhang Laosi cursing himself, and he couldn't help but get angry and wanted to beat Zhang Laosi, but he thought about it again, he still had to hide here, no friend, he suppressed his anger, and did not beat Zhang Laosi.
However, Liu Qiangdong still wanted to give Zhang Laosi a little threatening hint, to make him understand that he was not easy to provoke, and to pay attention to his speech in the future, so Liu Qiangdong asked him: "Do you know what I did in the past?" ”
Zhang Laosi said, "Aren't you in business?" ”
Liu Qiangdong laughed disdainfully, then suddenly stood up and kicked the characteristic positive steps of the Kuomintang army in the house.
When Zhang Laosi saw it, he understood in his heart, and he was a little afraid, so he used the excuse of drinking too much and ran out of Liu Qiangdong's house.
In fact, Zhang Laosi had long suspected that this fierce-looking "Liu Qiangdong" was not a good kind, and now that he thought about it, this was probably a Kuomintang agent!
At that time, a vigorous three-anti-five-counter movement was being carried out throughout the country, and the masses of the people were very conscious, often reporting and exposing the spies around them, so Zhang Laosi reported this suspicious element to the public security bureau.
When Liu Zhiqin's photo appeared, Zhang Laosi immediately said, "It's him!" ”
Therefore, the public security bureau immediately sent two people to follow Zhang Laosi to arrest Liu Zhiqin, and the story at the beginning occurred.
After Liu Zhiqin was arrested, in the face of solid evidence, he had to confess his crime and was sentenced to death.
On April 18, 1950, the Ministry of Public Security of the Chongqing Military Control Commission held a public trial meeting in Jiefangbei Square and sentenced Liu Zhiqin and a number of other murderers to death. After the meeting, Liu Zhiqin and others were executed by firing squad, ending their evil lives.
