Du Yuming was a proud subordinate of Chiang Kai-shek during the Republic of China, and the two were originally close, but due to a move by Chiang Kai-shek, Du Yuming was captured and his family fled in all directions. The direct cause of the tragedy of Du Yuming's life was Chiang Kai-shek's conspiracy, and Chiang Kai-shek personally destroyed the second half of Du Yuming's life, resulting in Du Yuming's death, with only one child guarding the body in front of the body and wearing a ma dai filial piety.
Before his death, Du Yuming deliberately wrote a will, telling his children that they must return to the mainland in the future, never go near Taiwan, and still less believe the lies of the Kuomintang. In other words, Du Yuming was also a loyal Kuomintang member, what made Du Yuming suddenly change his view of the Kuomintang? Why did Chiang Kai-shek make Du Yuming hate him so much?
Calculations and intrigues
Originally, the Kuomintang had already formulated the marching line and strategic methods in advance, but Chiang Kai-shek suddenly changed the strategic plan before the battle and abandoned the plan he had set out before. Chiang Kai-shek's move was opposed by Du Yuming, because this change plan was obviously unfavorable to the Kuomintang side, and this change was obviously a trap set by Chiang Kai-shek, and Du Yuming was unwilling to serve as the commander of this war.
However, the cunning Chiang Kai-shek had long anticipated this situation, and he had prepared in advance a way to deal with Du Yuming, so that Du Yuming would hold his bitterness in his heart like a dumb eater. Chiang Kai-shek was quite scheming in playing with people's hearts, and he took the gift money to Du Yuming's mother's house in advance to celebrate Du Yuming's mother's birthday, and Chiang Kai-shek's appearance made Du Yuming's mother very grateful, and the gifts he brought were also valuable treasures.
Du Yuming has always had a straight personality and has something to say, but this time those reluctant people in Du Yuming's heart can only be forced to swallow their own stomachs, and when they think of the birthday gift that Chiang Kai-shek prepared for his mother, the anger in his heart can only be gradually extinguished. At this time, Du Yuming not only failed to reject Chiang Kai-shek's arrangement head-on, but also expressed his gratitude to Chiang Kai-shek for sending gifts to his mother. Under Chiang Kai-shek's meticulous planning, Du Yuming became a pawn in the Battle of Huaihai to deal with the mess.
Betrayal and lies
The ending was as expected, in which Du Yuming was defeated and captured by the Communists. Du Yuming had always been loyal, and he always had great trust in the Kuomintang, and Du Yuming, who had been arrested, had been waiting for Chiang Kai-shek to send troops to rescue him. However, what Du Yuming did not know was that at this time, Chiang Kai-shek was already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river himself, and he only cared about his own way back, and he had no heart to rescue Du Yuming. Du Yuming could only carry out various aspects of reform under the supervision of the Communist Party.
Du Yuming still had people ready to eat and drink every day, although he did not have the slightest idea of taking the initiative to accept the transformation in his heart, but at least he did not have to worry about life. However, Du Yuming's family suffered. Because Du Yuming has always been a clear stream in the ranks of the Kuomintang, he is like the lotus that comes out of the mud and is not stained, always concentrating on work and not thinking about corruption, so Du Yuming's family does not have much savings, and when he leaves, the top pillar of the family is completely gone.
Because Du Yuming had previously touched the interests of many Kuomintang people because of his upright personality and uprightness, after his arrest, those who hated him deliberately made a mistake and claimed to Du Yuming's family that Du Yuming had died on the battlefield, which increased the anxiety and pain of Du Yuming's family. Chiang Kai-shek even more exposed his duplicitous nature in this incident, falsely promising that Du Yuming's wife and children would live a prosperous life without worries after following him to Taiwan, and using all kinds of lies to deceive Du Yuming's wife and children into a ferry to Taiwan.
Du Yuming's wife, Cao Xiuqing, believed that Du Yuming was an important cadre under Chiang Kai-shek before his death, and they would certainly receive corresponding care after they arrived in Taiwan. However, the facts subverted Cao Xiuqing's illusions, she took the old man and children to Taiwan after the birth of the unfamiliar land, but also did not wait for Chiang Kai-shek promised to arrange and take care of, the pension was also pitiful, completely unable to support a large family. Du Yuming's father was already old, coupled with the thought of his son, and soon he drove to the west of the crane.
After Cao Xiuqing thoroughly saw the reality, she decided to save herself and her children by herself, she went out every day to find a job to earn money, and if she could earn a little more, she could eat more food. Cao Xiuqing pleaded with everyone she knew to help her arrange a job to support the family's children. In the end, however, she only got a meager job as a sender and receiver, and the money could not afford to raise 6 children.
At this time, their eldest son studied in the United States, which was the time when tuition fees were needed. However, poverty made it impossible for Du Yuming's eldest son to survive in the United States, and it was difficult to even eat, let alone go to school. In desperation, Du Yuming's eldest son could not accept such a gap, and he did not want to continue to drag down his family, so he chose to take medicine to commit suicide, ending his short life.
Hate and admonish
Du Yuming, who was undergoing reform, was unaware of what had happened to his family at this time, and he still fantasized about Chiang Kai-shek taking care of his wife and children. Because Du Yuming has always taken a firm stand, he believes that even if he is executed, he will absolutely not be able to accept the transformation of the Communist Party. However, the truth is not as Du Yuming imagined, the Communist Party did not do any coercive reform of him, nor did it brainwash and educate him all day long, but put Marxist and Capital and other ideological books in front of Du Yuming.
For Du Yuming, idleness is also idleness, and he gradually opened the books in front of him that he had never read before. These ideas in the books were fresh theories that Du Yuming had never heard of, and Du Yuming was gradually attracted by these excellent advanced ideas, and it turned out that there were so many things in this world that he did not know. By reading the guiding ideology of the Communist Party and Chairman Mao's various military theories, he finally understood the reasons why the Communist Party was able to achieve the final victory.
Because the essence and ideals of the Communist Party and the Kuomintang have completely different contents, the guiding ideology of the Communist Party is fully integrated with reality and has won the support of the broad masses of the people. In the final analysis, the Kuomintang still wanted to gain control of the country, and did not consider the feelings and safety of the people at all. Looking at those admirable Mao Zedong Thoughts and battle plans, Du Yuming gradually expressed heartfelt admiration, and he changed from vowing to die to being convinced.
At this time, the news that Yang Zhenning won the Nobel Prize shocked the hearts of the people of the whole country, and Premier Zhou excitedly told Du Yuming the news. However, Du Yuming did not know how this person was related to him, and under the explanation of Premier Zhou, he learned that his eldest daughter Du Zhili had married Yang Zhenning. Excited and happy, Du Yuming picked up the pen and wrote his heart to the great son-in-law. Du Yuming's eldest daughter Du Zhili was surprised to see the handwritten letter he sent, her father was not dead, and tears of excitement overflowed her eyes in an instant.
Du Zhili, the eldest daughter of Du Yuming in the United States, truthfully wrote down the tragic experience of the family in recent years and sent it to her father in a letter. After Du Yuming learned the truth, he was extremely saddened, and his heartfelt resentment suddenly arose, and he finally saw the faces of Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang completely. Du Yuming instructed Yang Zhenning to return to the mainland to make contributions to the motherland after leaving the United States, and not to go to Taiwan to do things for the hypocritical Kuomintang.
In the 1980s, Du Yuming became seriously ill, and he applied to The Taiwanese side to take back the four children and make a final farewell. However, the Kuomintang forces refused to release the four children because they always hated Du Yuming for persuading Yang Zhenning to return to the mainland, and trapped them firmly in Taiwan and could not leave. Therefore, before Du Yuming died, only the eldest daughter Du Zhili rushed back from the United States and accompanied him.
Du Yuming told his eldest daughter not to go to Taiwan or stay in the United States in the future, and to always remember to contribute to her motherland. It was not until Chiang Ching-kuo's death that Du Yuming's children in Taiwan were able to regain their personal freedom. However, time is not waiting for anyone, and they have not seen the last side of their father, they can only go to Du Yuming's tomb to pay tribute.
