Legend has it that it has been trained to a certain extent that it can fly over the wall and tread water without a trace. Duan Yunpeng, who was once known as the "First Snitch", reached the previous realm, and he was a master of the rogue
"Swallow Li San"
After practicing the art of light body and learning a lot of stealing skills, the jianghu people gave him the nickname "Sai Tanuki Cat".
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he stole the official residence of the Japanese general Gangcun Zining and mobilized a large number of reconnaissance personnel, but finally he escaped and died without a disease.
In 1904, Duan Yunpeng was born in Xujiazhuang, Ji County, Hebei Province, and was the fourth oldest in the family.
In 1920, he ran away from home and ran to Baoding to join the Zhilu Coalition army as a soldier. He was not tall, strong as an ox, had a rough temperament, learned some martial arts in the army, had few opponents when he wrestled with others, and climbed high and crossed the ditch as light as a swallow. In 1927, he was promoted in successive years of warlord melee, and in 1927 he was mixed with a captain and aide-de-camp at the headquarters of the new recruits of the Xi'an Army, and became an instructor for training new recruits. Later, Duan Yunpeng suspected that there was not much oil and water in the military camp, and the rules were oppressive, so he left the military camp and mixed up in the Pingjin area and broke into the rivers and lakes.
By chance, Duan Yunpeng was photographed by "Swallow Li San" and worshipped into the Swallow Gate, obtaining the true legend of a generation of rogues. Because he was cunning by nature, skilled, flying cornices, walking without a trace, diving into the house, entering the compound, such as entering no man's land, the people around Pingjin mentioned him, saying that he was the first snitch in Pingjin after Yanzi Li San, and the jianghu people called him "Sai Tanuki Cat".
At first, Duan Yunpeng was also a rogue thief, only stealing the Pingjin official mansion and large households, and never harming the people of Pingtou. According to the legend of the jianghu, the well-known business names outside the front gate of Beiping are Tongxingcheng Leather Shop, Ruifengxiang Silk Satin Village, the Consulate of Foreigners in Dongjiaomin Lane, the prominent warlord General Shuai Mansion, the pawnshop in Tianjin, the bustling persuasion field... They have all been blackmailed by him.
Duan Yunpeng has been a snitch for four years, and the reason why the golden basin washed his hands is because
Zhuozhou, Baoding City, Hebei Province"
Yanzi Li San "was executed, frightening him to rush to join the army, afraid that he would be shot one day."
At the beginning of 1933, Duan Yunpeng entered the 47th Road Volunteer Army and served as a major squadron leader.
During the Xifengkou War of Resistance, Duan Yunpeng's troops were scattered and wanted to defect to Song Zheyuan, but the Song department only needed to be a soldier, not an official.
In desperation, Duan Yunpeng returned to his old business and stole it until 1943, and had become a prominent figure in the industry.
In 1943, one day, Duan Yunpeng, who was walking on the street, was kicked twice by Japanese soldiers, duan Yunpeng wanted to take revenge, but seeing that several Japanese soldiers had guns, the good man did not eat the immediate loss, so he forced himself to endure this anger and find an opportunity to take revenge in the future.
After a few days, he met a convoy of seven or eight small cars on the street, roaring past, very arrogant, Duan Yunpeng inquired, it turned out that this was Okamura Ningji's motorcade, Duan Yunpeng came to the spirit, performed light work, and followed all the way to Okamura Ningji's home shoplifting. According to the Japanese investigation, Duan Yunpeng jumped from the roof of the barracks on the third floor facing the street over a 6-meter-wide alley, jumped into the Japanese official residence, and after winning the hand, climbed up the wall from the right wall of the official residence and escaped. A total of 1 pistol, 1 gold watch, 5 gold bars, 1 emerald ball, 2 golden Buddhas, 5800 US dollars, 149600 Japanese dollars, 200000 yuan of pseudo-reserve tickets, 360000 yuan of Japanese military tickets, and 40 taels of gold were stolen.
After the incident, Okamura Ningji was greatly shocked, and the Rite High School and the Peiping Police Station vigorously investigated the light masters in the Pingjin area, and eliminated the suspicions one by one, and finally paid attention to Duan Yunpeng. However, Duan Yunpeng fled early and never knew where he went, and the Japanese side found nothing. Because of the heavy losses, Okamura Ningji was still obsessed with this matter until many years later, so that it was later written into the "Memoirs of Okamura Ningji".
The Japanese secret service organization and the Peiping police repeatedly organized personnel to investigate the theft, but to no avail, and Okamura Ningji could only give up.
In 1946, Duan Yunpeng ransacked Beijing's largest silk satin village, including many high-end cloths. The Beijing authorities were furious and ordered the authorities to investigate thoroughly, and a few days later, Duan Yunpeng was arrested and imprisoned by the Kuomintang.
However, after discovering the general location of the Communist Party's secret radio station, the Kuomintang released Duan Yunpeng, and it was obvious that the Secret Service of the Military Command took a fancy to Duan Yunpeng's light feats.
He wanted to use him to monitor the Communist Party's every move.
After several days of observation, Duan Yunpeng found that in a mansion,
A young man turns on the lights on time at six o'clock in the morning every day,
A large wooden box was taken from under the bed and put back under the bed after a while. Duan Yunpeng reported to the Kuomintang, and the enemy locked the position of communist intelligence personnel.
One night in September 1947, a telegram from the Peiping Secret Radio was urgently sent to Premier Zhou's desk:
"Sun is determined to cooperate, please send the responsible personnel to consult as soon as possible."
The telegram came from The hand of Yu Xinqing, vice chairman of the Political Design Committee of the Baoding Appeasement Office and a lieutenant general, and the "Sun" mentioned in the telegram refers to Sun Lianzhong, a Kuomintang "feudal governor" and director of the Baoding Appeasement Office.
This seemingly "good news" secret telegram not only did not make Zhou Enlai feel the slightest joy, but was greatly shaken. Because the secret telegram has committed a big taboo in intelligence work.
In the early morning of September 24, 1947, after the radio personnel had finished sending telegrams as usual, Duan Yunpeng, a Kuomintang agent who had been hiding outside the door, jumped into the house and arrested the informants on the spot.
It was discovered that it was an underground radio station, and a large number of original manuscripts of codes and telegrams were found from it, so the Peiping intelligence group was exposed. The informants later defected and confessed more personnel to the intelligence system. At that time, 44 CCP underground intelligence officers were arrested, and 123 people were implicated.
What shocked the kmt officials at the top level was that Xie Shiyan and Ding Xing, two KMT general-level officers, Zhu Jianguo, Shi Chun, and Zhao Liangzhang, were among them.
In 1947, the Shanghai Times Daily published the following news:
Xie Shiyan, director of the Operations Department of the Headquarters of the Twelfth Military Region of the Kuomintang, and Yu Xinqing, director of the Gao Staff Office, were arrested. At the same time, seventeen major generals and one major general each from the northern parallel, northeastern, and Fu Zuoyi's troops were arrested. These people were all high-ranking spies arranged by the Communist Party within the Kuomintang.
In 1949, Duan Yunpeng quietly sneaked back to the interior to prepare to assassinate the central leaders, but under the airtight defense network of Luo Ruiqing and others, he never found an opportunity to do so, and could only return empty-handed.
“
Shelling Tiananmen
After the plan went bankrupt, U.S. agent Chiang Kai-shek found Duan Yunpeng again, and used his familiarity with the terrain of Zhongnanhai and his network of contacts in Beijing and Tianjin to once again assassinate Mao, Zhou, Liu and other central leaders.
This time, Duan Yunpeng had a strong backstage support, and after returning to Beijing, he immediately contacted Beijing's agents, obtained the office address of Premier Zhou, and was later appointed as the colonel leader of Taiwan's Secrecy Bureau, responsible for spying on intelligence.
In October 1950, Duan Yunpeng once again infiltrated back to the mainland, and Duan Yunpeng,corpus, who appeared again, attracted the attention of the Ministry of Public Security, and immediately asked the Beijing Public Security Bureau to attach great importance to it, collect clues, and arrest him as soon as they appeared.
However, due to Duan Yunpeng's high anti-reconnaissance ability, several arrests ended in failure.
In 1951, Duan Yunpeng established a "
Peking Action Group
He prepared to carry out the assassination on Labor Day, but before he could act, the members of the action team were captured by our side, and Duan Yunpeng immediately fled.
In June 1954, Duan Yunpeng came to Hong Kong, and Luo Ruiqing learned of it, formulated a strict armament, and then laid a trap to try to sweep it away.
In September, Duan Yunpeng took the pass given by "Han Baozhang" and "smoothly entered" from Shenzhen unimpeded. As a result, as soon as I got off the plane, I was surrounded by several public security groups, and the police led by them said:
"Duan Yunpeng, you have been arrested!"
This time, Duan Yunpeng wanted to go north again in the name of doing business, and he had also found out the prime minister's address before and wanted to blackmail the prime minister. But he didn't want the devil to be a foot tall, Luo Ruiqing had already mastered his every move, and opened a big net to "invite thieves into the urn." This snitch agent, who had ravaged the Beiyang, Japanese occupation, and Jiang bandits in the three periods, was thus planted in the hands of our public security forces, and the "Sai Tanuki Cat" ran as fast as he could, and in the end he was unable to escape the big net of the people's public security.
Duan Yunpeng committed many evil deeds and was eventually defeated by Luo Ruiqing's men, and when Luo Ruiqing reported the incident to Chairman Mao, Chairman Mao was very happy and said:
"Isn't he a snitch?" Let him fly a look! ”
After Duan Yunpeng was arrested, the Guangzhou Air Force sent a special plane to escort him to Beijing and detain him in the Caolanzi Detention Center. After patient ideological education by interrogators and correctional personnel, as well as special treatment in life. Duan Yunpeng gradually eliminated his hostility, gradually confessed all his crimes, and exposed the inside story of Taiwan's Secrecy Bureau and other secret service organizations.
After the arrest, he was used to negotiate with the secret agent Mao Renfeng, and because Duan Yunpeng's arrest was secret, the Taiwan Secret Service did not know the truth for a long time and still regularly sent him funds for his activities. It also allowed the enemy to send a large number of advanced secret service equipment,
And cracked 4 special agent groups, a total of 148 secret agents were arrested
To find out the secret service network of a total of 5 provinces and cities.
On October 11, 1967, Duan Yunpeng was escorted to Tianjin for execution. This snitch, a snitch who had committed evil in several periods, and a Kuomintang agent who had committed the most heinous crimes, had finally ended his life of sin.
