On March 20, 1946, the first sunny day after the rain. At the foot of Daishan Mountain, a man of about fifty years old and gray hair, holding a white cloth wrapped in a human form, staggered down the mountain.
On the side of the highway, there were many cars parked, but the people on the car refused to let this person and his package on the car, and he could only stop a truck with a sad face, climb into the cargo compartment of the truck with the package, and return to Nanjing.
This person was a military command agent named Jia Jinnan. In his arms was the body of Dai Kasa, director of the Military Command Bureau.
Jia Jinnan is an "old qualified" agent, but he is neither the "Eight King Kongs" or the "Four Great Killers", nor is he a powerful and strategic commander. In the military system, Jia Jinnan's reputation is not prominent, many people do not even have much impression of him, and the most conspicuous label on him is "the most trusted person on Dai Kasa".
Dai Kasa, the word "rain farmer"
Jia Jinnan is a native of Nanjing, older than Dai Kasa.
When Dai Kasa had just begun to do intelligence work, and even before the Revival Society was established, Jia Jinnan was already following him. When the Kuomintang secret service work was just beginning to be laid out, Dai Kasa and Zheng Jiemin were both under the command of Chiang Kai-shek at the same time. Both were responsible to Chiang kai-shek and carried out intelligence work at the same time. However, at this time, the main object of their intelligence gathering was within the Kuomintang army, in order to help Chiang Kai-shek grasp and control the different "hills".
At this time, Dai Kasa did not cover the sky with one hand like in the future, and he was even more passive in the competition with Zheng Jiemin. Although he and Zheng Jiemin have different divisions of labor, different work characteristics, and different directions of responsibility, after all, they are all engaged in intelligence, so it is inevitable that there will be some potential competitive relations.
At this time, Dai Kasa was slightly inferior to Zheng Jiemin, who graduated from the huangpu phase II and was deeply trusted by Chiang Kai-shek, in terms of qualifications, cultural level, and even work ability, and he was still in the "incubation period" before his development, and at this time, Jia Jinnan was already his assistant.
Zheng Jiemin
By the time the "Secret Service" was established, the rudiments of military command had already taken shape. At this time, there were three members in the leadership team: Dai Kasa, Zheng Jiemin and Tang Zhong. Their first soldier, the first ordinary member to join, was Still Jia Jinnan.
From then on, until Dai Kasa's death, Jia Jinnan followed Dai Kasa around. He is the one who has been with Dai Kasa for the longest time, has been with him for the longest time, and is also the person who "can't do without Dai Kasa".
Jia Jinnan has a thick and honest personality, because he has been with Dai Kasa for many years, he not only knows Dai Kasa's life, living and rest habits, but also establishes a special relationship with Dai Kasa: he is both a superior and a subordinate, but also a close friend.
Jia Jinnan was loyal to Dai Kasa, who, although a secret agent, was more like a personal servant, driver, cook, or guard aide-de-camp of Dai Kasa.
He seemed very ordinary, and he did not do some earth-shattering "big things" like other big agents. However, without Jia Jinnan, Dai Kasa is afraid that it is "difficult to walk at all".
As the director of the Military Command, Dai Kasa has many enemies, and every time he eats out, Jia Jinnan is responsible for purchasing, cooking and tasting; Jia Jinnan can drive and has always been Dai Kasa's personal driver. At the critical moment, the person Dai Kasa trusted most was Jia Jinnan. This kind of trust accumulated over the years cannot be done by another person.
Tang Zhong
In front of Jia Jinnan, Dai Kasa was sometimes very casual, even a little arbitrary, and did not control his emotions at all, and almost caused his life.
Once, Dai Kasa didn't know why, fell into rage and rage, and hit Jia Jinnan. Until the beating of Jia Jinnan's head, the blood flow did not stop, which made Mao Renfeng, who was present at the time, unable to control. Fortunately, Dai Kasa's mother happened to live in Nanjing at this time, and Mao Renfeng immediately rushed out and invited Mrs. Dai to save the scene, and Dai Kasa stopped.
At this time, Jia Jinnan had already been beaten half to death by Dai Kasa, and the old lady was one step late, and she really didn't know how big a fuss she was going to make.
Later, many people recalled that Dai Kasa's personality was not as gloomy and taciturn as we imagined as a spy. On the contrary, most of the time he seems to be more easy-going and restrained, but there are also times when he is angry and violent. Sometimes, the more closely he is in front of people, the more Dai Kasa appears to "have no sand in his eyes", plus his wife lives in the countryside for many years, so many bad emotions he often vents on Jia Jinnan.
Dai Kasa and Dai Mu
Jia Jinnan not only takes care of Dai Kasa in his daily life, but more importantly: he knows Dai Kasa very well. He knew when he should stand in the way of Dai Kasa, and when he should quietly exit the house. This tacit understanding is also the result of years of running-in between the two of them. For his occasional bad temper, Dai Kasa can even put down his body in front of Jia Jinnan and take the initiative to apologize.
Once, Dai Kasa had a big emotional outburst towards Jia Jinnan, scolding and punching and kicking. But this time, Jia Jinnan also collapsed. He cried and offered Dai Kasa on the spot to resign and go home. Looking at Jia Jinnan's already white sideburns, Dai Kasa, who is usually majestic, also retracted his bad temper, not only in turn to appease Jia Jinnan, but also constantly apologized to him and kept him.
It would be hard to imagine if this scene had happened to other agents of the military command. It is also from these less facial details that we see a little bit of normal "human" communication, which seems more real and grounded. In addition, Dai Kasa usually takes good care of Jia Jinnan's family, and never puts up a shelf for them.
The relationship between Dai Kasa and Jia Jinnan, which was also a servant and a friend, was actually not uncommon in that era, and after Dai Kasa's death, Jia Jinnan behaved more like a traditional Chinese domestic servant, with affection and righteousness, loyalty and unaltered.
In March 1946, Jia Jinnan was supposed to fly from Beiping to Qingdao on the same plane as Dai Kasa, but this time, Dai Kasa ordered him to take another plane to escort a batch of valuables collected from Beiping by the military command. Jia Jinnan thus escaped the disaster.
After the crash, Chiang Kai-shek issued an order that "to see people in life and to see corpses in death," a large number of military and police gendarmes began to search for the wreckage of the plane.
Crash scene
When Jia Jinnan learned that Dai Kasa might have died in the plane crash, he was first stunned, and then hid to the side and smoked non-stop, but in fact, he usually did not smoke at all; after confirming the plane crash, he rushed to the crash site, and in the face of the tragic situation, he wept and searched for Dai Kasa's body like crazy.
Due to the fire caused by the crash, the victims were burned into a section of "black carbon" that could not be identified. Jia Jinnan knew that Dai Kasa's left molars were inlaid with six gold teeth, so he began to examine the corpses one by one, but after going through all the corpses, he still could not find Dai Kasa.
Just when Jia Jinnan felt tired and disappointed, a large number of military commanders also arrived. Together with the hired farmers, they expanded their search and found thirteen bodies scattered nearby. Finally, after Jia Jinnan carefully identified, the body found in the "sleepy rain ditch" was Dai Kasa.
Dai Kasa character "rain farmer", after death fell in the "trapped rain ditch", had to make people feel the providence in the darkness.
After Dai Kasa's death, Chiang Kai-shek immediately carried out a large-scale dismantling of the military command organs
At this time, Dai Kasa's body had lost its calf and right hand, and seeing that the director of the military command who had once been in the limelight had ended up in such a fate, everyone present felt cold and shocked. Jia Jinnan carefully wrapped Dai Kasa's body layer by layer with a white cloth brought by the searcher, and then carried it down the muddy and difficult mountain road.
On that day, there were many military leaders of all sizes who came to the crash site in Daishan Mountain, and their cars were all parked at the bottom of the mountain, but none of them were willing to let Jia Jinnan carry Dai Kasa's body to the car.
Jia Jinnan, who had to take a truck back to Nanjing, when he met Shen Drunk, who had just arrived from Chongqing, all the resentment and grievances in his heart surged up, and he cried and cried: "Director Shen, usually they respect Mr. Dai so much, and now Mr. Shen's bones are not cold, they will not even let the car get on." ”
Shen Drunk's eyes were also reddened, and he comforted Jia Jinnan and said, "People are in human feelings, people are walking in the air, they want to open up." ”
Dai Kasa funeral
The reason why I became interested in the small person of Jia Jinnan was because when I collected information from the Military Command Bureau, I found that this person was a "secret agent" who was not like a secret agent, a tragic figure wrapped up in the times.
As a small person, the only words he left in history are precisely because of the "Dai Kasa" who brought him a tragic fate, and my writing at this moment is not exactly because of Dai Kasa?
Looking through the information, there is very little information about "Jia Jinnan", not even a photo has been found, and the specific whereabouts of Jia Jinnan after Dai Kasa's death are also a mystery. The only thing that can be found is that he was arrested and imprisoned in Tianjin in 1949. It is conceivable that as a "secret agent of the military command" and a "close confidant of Dai Kasa", what will be the fate that will greet him.
We can also guess that at the moment when the building collapsed, he who lost his backer might not be able to get the ticket for his family to go to Taiwan, and could only hide in the far north, and still could not escape justice.
In the big era, every ordinary person is a humble grain of dust. He accompanied a prominent figure at the best stage of his life, and that was it. (End of full text)
