On March 17, 1946, Dai Kasa took off from Qingdao, but due to the foggy weather, it was impossible to land safely in Shanghai, so he had to fly to Nanjing, but unfortunately something happened, at about 1 p.m. on the same day, the plane fell in Jiangning District, Nanjing, and all the passengers and crew on the plane were killed.
As soon as the news came out, it shocked everyone at home and abroad, and when it was still impossible to figure out why the plane crashed, Dai Kasa's body was found on March 19 and sent to the funeral home for burial.
In charge of Dai Kasa's funeral was Mao Renfeng, who is said to have injected a large amount of cement into Dai Kasa's tomb, a move that has led to speculation. When Zheng Jiemin, director of the Kuomintang Secrecy Bureau, learned of the situation, he said with great indignation: Mao Qi's heart is reprehensible. Why did Mao Renfeng do this?
Dai Kasa formed a military command, and his minions spread throughout the country
In 1897, Dai Kasa was born in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, the family's grandfather's generation was still a landlord, and when his father's generation destroyed the family business, Dai Kasa's mother had to go out to earn money to survive. Her mother was a big girl and attached great importance to Dai Kasa's education. At the age of 7, he was sent to a private school, and at the age of 11, he was sent to elementary school.
But Dai Kasa was not a decent person when he was young, he was not good at reading, but he was talented and had a strong memory, and he liked to fight and make trouble at school, and did some things to steal chickens and dogs.
In 1916, Dai Kasa was expelled from secondary school for stealing things, and at this time he was 18 years old, and he was physically fit, so he joined the army in order to find an errand to do.
In the army, he also did not mix well, and later went to Shanghai to make friends with Du Yuesheng, the boss of the Green Gang at the time, and the two became brothers, and Du Yuesheng believed that Dai Kasa was a talent who did great things.
In Shanghai, Dai Kasa became acquainted with two figures who played a key role in his life, one was Hu Zongnan, who later became Chiang Kai-shek's "first protégé", and the other was Chiang Kai-shek, although Chiang Kai-shek had not yet become the leader of the Kuomintang at that time, Dai Kasa successfully attracted Chiang Kai-shek's attention and has been relied on since.
Dai Kasa then entered the Whampoa Military Academy to study, and gradually received chiang kai-shek's care, and after graduation, he turned to Chiang Kai-shek and always did things for him.
At the request of the Nationalist government, Dai Kasa began to set up secret service agencies, which were renamed and changed several times, but the main task remained unchanged, that is, to collect intelligence for Chiang Kai-shek and become his eyes and ears.
Dai Kasa, who had experience in secret service organizations, eventually established the military command, because of his outstanding work ability, the military command under Dai Kasa's leadership gradually grew, forming a powerful force that made the revolutionaries jealous. Agents of the military command spread all over the country, and he helped Chiang Kai-shek in the War of Resistance, but also helped him to eliminate dissidents.
Dai Kasa, who was deeply influenced by superstitions
As his power gradually expanded, Dai Kasa committed more and more sins, and the number of people who died under his hands could not be counted. At the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the size of the military command reached its peak, with more than 60,000 personnel and an independent armed force of more than 300,000 people.
It can be said that at that time, Dai Kasa was very ambitious, and he not only did things for Chiang Kai-shek, but also colluded with the US government to try to balance Chiang Kai-shek and obtain the position of commander of the navy.
It was impossible for Chiang Kai-shek not to know Dai Kasa's second heart, so he was already on guard against him. There are many theories about Dai Kasa's death, and some people believe that he did not die in a plane crash, but was murdered by someone.
There is a saying that Dai Kasa is very superstitious, believing that feng shui and changing his name can change his fate, and he finally renamed himself Gao Chongyue, which has nothing to do with water, so the plane crashed into the mountain, and he died, which is exactly the proof.
Dai Kasa's original name was Dai Chunfeng, but the fortune teller said that he lacked water in the five elements, so he often changed his name to water- related names, of which Shen Peilin was the longest-used pseudonym. After using the name Shen Peilin, Dai Kasa's career also became smooth, which made Dai Kasa believe in the Five Elements Feng Shui and so on.
Mao Renfeng and Dai Kasa were fellow villagers, and they were promoted by Dai Kasa to the director of the office of the Military Command Bureau, and their work ability was also very strong, which was quite popular with Chiang Kai-shek. The two can be said to smell the same, and Mao Renfeng was also influenced by Dai Kasa's feudal superstitions, and appeared superstitious and cautious in many behaviors. After Dai's death, Chiang Kai-shek changed the general to the Secrecy Bureau, and Mao Renfeng was the director of the Secrecy Bureau.
Cement was poured into Dai Kasa's tomb to protect him
In March 1947, the Secrecy Bureau was completed and Mao Renfeng became the director. At this time, the Secrecy Bureau also solemnly held a commemorative meeting for the first anniversary of Dai Kasa's death, and chose an auspicious day to bury Dai Kasa, a task that naturally fell to the Mao people's crest. However, Mao Renfeng poured a large amount of cement into the tomb during the burial, which caused people to talk about it.
Cement is corrosive in the flowing state, and pouring into the tomb will cause corrosion to the wooden coffin, which is not conducive to the protection of the coffin and the corpse, and even accelerates the decomposition of the corpse.
But Mao Renfeng's account is that he did this to protect Dai Kasa's body, because Dai Kasa offended many people during his lifetime, and adding a layer of cement could prevent the enemy from digging graves and whipping corpses. Cement is poured into the tomb and the coffin is synthesized into a whole, so that the enemy cannot easily destroy the coffin.
Such a statement seems to have some truth, and it can also reflect Mao Renfeng's intentions. However, another veteran agent, Zheng Jiemin, after learning of this matter, said that Mao Renfeng was reprehensible, he thought that Mao Renfeng was very superstitious, and listened to the remarks of some wild Taoists that sealing Dai Kasa's tomb with cement could play a role in crushing the top of the boulder, so that he could sit at the post of director without worry.
After the Liberation War, the Kuomintang army was gradually defeated, and in early 1949 Mao Renfeng prepared to flee to Taiwan, and before leaving, he ordered people to exhumate Dai's body, cremate it, and let him take it to Taiwan. But the soldiers who sent a company made great efforts and were unable to open Dai Kasa's tomb.
In 1956, Mao Renfeng lost the struggle against Chiang Ching-kuo in Taiwan and died of illness in Taiwan. When Chiang Kai-shek recalled the past, he still lamented that Dai Kasa's death was too unexpected, if he had not died, then the Kuomintang might not have fallen into the situation of fleeing to Taiwan, at least there would not have been so many people in the Kuomintang army who surrendered or revolted, and the speed of defeat to the People's Liberation Army was so fast.
brief summary:
But history is impossible to repeat, Dai Kasa is cunning and sinister, but at the same time he has a clear understanding of himself and is good at observing words. His ability to leap from an ordinary person to a figure in China's modern history shows that he still has his own superiority.
Even after his death, Mao Renfeng and others were jealous of him, afraid that he would affect his future path, so he did such a strange thing. Chiang Kai-shek knew that he had two hearts, but he still regretted that he died suddenly and failed to help him achieve great things. There are many facets to this person, and the merits and demerits are left to posterity to comment.
