In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the agents of the Nationalist military command who remained on the mainland were arrested one after another, and the forms of arrest were various, some because of the corruption of life, and some because of grumpiness.
The person introduced today is even more bizarre, and it was actually because he had an affair with the hostess and was jealous and was denounced.
This person is also not an ordinary person, that is, the major general of the military command and the station chief of Henan Station: Yue Zhanyuan.
Yue Zhanyuan is a native of Qishan County, Henan, and was also admitted to the sixth phase of the Whampoa Military Academy, and was a classmate of Dai Kasa, so he was appreciated by Dai Kasa and rose all the way to the rank of station chief of Henan Station and major general. You know, even Dai Kasa himself was only a major general, and he was posthumously promoted to lieutenant general after his death.
By 1949, Yue Was supposed to follow Chiang Kai-shek to Taiwan Island, but because he had joined the Communist Party in his early years, Chiang Kai-shek did not trust him very much and did not approve him to go with him, but let him continue to stay on the mainland and engage in secret activities.
If you want to stay on the mainland, you must have a secure identity; Yue Zhan, who has been in the military command for so many years and is also familiar with our party's policies, decided to become a peasant with nothing and no one will pay attention.
Of course, a person like Yue Zhanyuan would certainly not go to people as a real farmer, and it was easy to show the stuffing, so he thought of a way to let his wife buy some land and recruit himself as a farmer, pretending that the two did not know each other, but the relationship between the employer and the farmer.
However, Yue Zhanyuan had never planted the ground, and he couldn't even distinguish between wheat and leeks, so what to do? He asked his wife to recruit another real farmer, let him do whatever work he wanted, and only do some easy work himself.
It should be said that this routine is still very safe, so why did Yue Zhanyuan later accuse him of sending it?
In fact, it is also very simple, although Yue Zhanyuan and his wife are ostensibly employed, but after all, they are husband and wife, so usually there are some ambiguous actions, especially at night, the two still have to live together. Although the two tried to avoid going too far, this kind of thing could not be hidden, so the other farmer began to have ideas.
The peasant thought to himself: Is this hostess without a husband? Looking at her like a flower, she certainly can't stand loneliness, and I can do what the farmer can do!
Therefore, this peasant began to stir up the hostess, and it is conceivable that Yue Zhanyuan and his wife did not do anything, and there was no less tidying up for him in the open and in the dark, either arranging for him to do heavy work or finding an excuse to withhold wages.
This farmer is on fire, thinking, there must be something wrong with you two, see I will report you!
Therefore, he sued Yue Zhanyuan and the two of them, saying that this person claimed to be a farmer, but he could not do any farm work, and he was not clear with the hostess, maybe he was a spy!
In that era, the whole country was arresting spies, and as long as someone denounced it, the superiors would definitely pay attention to it, so Yue Zhanyuan was arrested and strictly interrogated.
Moreover, Yue Zhanyuan originally gave up a very special name in order to hide his name, called "Jiang Zhong", do you say that this is not death? When the superiors saw it, they actually wanted to be loyal to Chiang Kai-shek, but what was it that was not a spy?
After some interrogation and the identification of the former military command agent, Yue Zhanyuan finally revealed his true face and was imprisoned.
Moreover, because Yue Zhanyuan's position in the military command was very high, the superiors thought that he was definitely not the only one, perhaps he was the general person in charge of the military command lurking in East China, so he launched a round of large-scale investigation.
Of course, in the end, after investigation, the superiors learned that Yue Zhanyuan was also an unlucky egg, but only a person abandoned by Chiang Kai-shek, not a general person in charge, so he was sent to the Beijing War Criminals Management Center.
Finally, there is a very interesting thing, in the Beijing War Criminals Management Center, in addition to daily study and labor, war criminals also take the initiative to undertake some amateur labor, such as helping everyone cut hair, cleaning, sewing clothes, etc., then, do you know what kind of work Yue Zhanyuan picked?
Many people can't imagine that it is a shoe repair.
In the management office, repairing shoes is the dirtiest job, no one wants to do it, but Yue Zhanyuan took the initiative to apply for this job, and he also did a lot of fun, never complained, is it not incredible?
For this problem, Yue Zhanyuan later explained that it was because the work of repairing shoes was the most inconspicuous and least noticeable, and no one would pick faults if it was done well or badly, unlike haircuts, which were the kung fu on the head, and if they were not good, everyone could see it.
It seems that Yue Zhanyuan was really afraid of being reported by the farmer, afraid that he would attract the attention of others again.
