Ghostwritten by Chen Bray.
After the Xi'an incident, the outside world has different opinions about the truth of the incident. In order to give the people an explanation, Chiang Kai-shek instructed Chen Bray to write "The Half Moon Of the Xi'an Incident.". It is intended to characterize Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng as sinners who have committed rebellion. He also told him that during the incident, he read the Bible every day, so God sent his wife Song Meiling to save him. This is tantamount to saying that you are off the line and rely on God's blessing. After chen brei listened, he resigned on the grounds that he had not been to Xi'an. Chiang Kai-shek said, "It doesn't matter, you just have to write as I say." I'm sure you'll be able to accomplish this task. In desperation, Chen Bray had to write this article full of lies with the pen he used to write in his hand, and after completing it, Chen Bray fell seriously ill. After the Lugou Bridge Incident, Chiang Kai-shek realized that Japan was "deliberately plotting against me," so he read out the "Solemn and Just Statement on the Lugou Bridge Incident" drafted by Chen Brei, which was impassioned in its entirety, and the last paragraph was even more exciting:
If the war is over, it means that there is no distinction between the north and the south of the land, no distinction between the old and the young, no matter who it is, everyone has the responsibility to defend the territory and resist the war, and they should all have the determination to sacrifice everything. ''
After the outbreak of the All-out War of Resistance, Chen Bray placed his family and relatives in the countryside, while he himself followed Chiang Kai-shek's War of Resistance alone. On the occasion of the first anniversary of the All-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he wrote a six-thousand-word "Letter to the Military and Civilians of the Whole Country on the Anniversary of the Founding of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression." For a time, newspapers at home and abroad rushed to reprint it, and Chinese people around the world were all excited to read it. After Wang Jingwei surrendered to the enemy, the Japanese Konoe Cabinet issued a statement to the Chinese Government on the abduction of "establishing a new order in East Asia." After learning of this, he wrote a letter of indignation and wrote "Refuting the New Order in East Asia of the Guards," pointing out that this was the total confession of all the delusional plots of the enemy to swallow up China, dominate East Asia, and then try to conquer the world, and it was also the total exposure of all the contents of the enemy's entire plan to destroy our country and destroy our nation.
''Call on the people of the whole country to resist to the end.'' After this article was broadcast, it had a great impact and was hailed as the first powerful text in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression! After the victory of the War of Resistance, Chen Brei was also worried while rejoicing. Because he was deep in the top echelons of the Kuomintang, he was very dissatisfied with the phenomenon of "competing for fame and profit, and people are selfish". After the outbreak of the civil war, the Kuomintang army suffered continuous defeats, and Chen Bray, who was in charge of propaganda work, was torn between truthful reporting and false propaganda. Faced with an irreparable situation, the powerless Chen Bray made the final relief by committing suicide.
A talented, upright intellectual left the world. Chen Bray's death is not only a tragedy of his own character, but also a tragedy of the times.
