In the previous section, Zhang Xueliang arrived in Shanghai and called Dong Jianwu and said that he wanted to complete a private matter. In fact, Zhang Xueliang's private affair was to fulfill the second request that Dong Jianwu made to him when he was in Xi'an. He asked Dong Kengo to meet him the next morning at a French bar on Columbia Road.
Since Zhang Xueliang came to find Dong Jianwu, why didn't he go directly to the door and go to the bar opened by foreigners to meet him?
Although relations between the Kuomintang and the Communists had eased somewhat at that time, Kuomintang agents were still very strictly monitoring those leftists and senior military officials close to the Communists.
Zhang Xueliang held a heavy army in the northwest, and was naturally the focus of the secret service's surveillance. In fact, Chiang Kai-shek's attitude toward Zhang Xueliang as a person is still quite complicated, and he wants to win over and suppress him. Therefore, on the one hand, he appointed Zhang Xueliang as the director of the Wuchang camp and concurrently served as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Northwest Suppression Campaign, and on the other hand, he asked Zhang Xueliang to encircle and suppress the Red Army and achieve the purpose of depleting the strength of the Northeast Army. Zhang Xueliang actually knew Chiang Kai-shek's intentions, so he was very disgusted by Chiang Kai-shek's approach. Ideologically, Zhang Xueliang is relatively pro-communist.
After receiving Zhang Xueliang's call, Dong Jianwu considered that this was a major matter concerning Mao Zedong's two sons and immediately asked the underground party organization in Shanghai how to deal with it. The next day, Liu Zihua, an underground party in Shanghai, accompanied Dong Jianwu to a bar to meet Zhang Xueliang. Zhang Xueliang told them: This time to Shanghai is a secret activity, so it is inconvenient to meet in the apartment. His subordinate Li Du would enter the Soviet Union via France, detour to the Sino-Soviet border, and organize the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army that retreated to the Soviet Union to return to China to resist Japan. I decided to take this opportunity and let him take your 3 children abroad.
Zhang Xueliang then said how to contact Li Du, and then took out a check for 100,000 francs and handed it to Dong Jianwu, saying that it was as a fund for the children to go abroad. They did not stay in the bar for long, and after a brief conversation, Zhang Xueliang personally drove Dong Jianwu and Liu Zihua to the entrance of Fuxing Park. Since then, Dong Jianwu has never seen Zhang Xueliang again.
A few days later, Dong Jianwu contacted General Li Du and sent the Mao Anying brothers and Dong Shouqi to the residence of General Li Du on Baoji Road in the French Concession. Li Du, alias Wang Yuanhua, completed his passport to go abroad in the name of a businessman, took his three "sons" with him, boarded a French cruise ship to the Soviet Union to investigate. Feng Xuefeng, head of the Shanghai underground party, sent Yang Chengfang, an underground party member, to accompany him abroad in the name of Secretary Li Du, whose actual task was to escort the Mao Anying brothers to the Soviet Union. The boat passed through Hong Kong, Saigon, Mumbai, the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean Sea, and arrived in Marseille, France, in early August. After arriving in Marseille, they changed trains to Paris, the capital of France. Then, after a few months, Kishi Ying and Kishi Qing came to Moscow. The Brothers Mao Anying and Mao Anqing then entered the Monior Second International Children's Hospital on the outskirts of Moscow. Mao Anying took the name Selgay, nicknamed Sheliaosha, Mao Anying named Alexander, When Mao Anying was 14 years old, Mao Anying was 12 years old.
Not long after that, due to the "cell action" of the Kuomintang agents, the Shanghai underground party organization suffered great damage, and Dong Jianwu lost contact with the organization for a time. After several efforts, he finally contacted Pan Hannian, who, in view of the special circumstances of the time, asked him to act alone and do some useful work against Japan. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Dong Jianwu was introduced by a friend to join the Songhu Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Group formed by Lu Diandong and was responsible for espionage work.
In October 1937, Snow's "Red Star Shines on China" was published in London, and it became popular all over the world for a while. Western critics say that the book's discovery and description of the Chinese communist movement, like Columbus's discovery of the Americas, is an achievement that shook the world.
In the book, Snow made an enthusiastic assessment of Dong Jianwu: "In the following week, I found that even if it was only for Wang, it was worth my trip to Xi'an Province. I spent four or five hours a day listening to him chat, reminiscing about the past, and listening to his more serious explanations of the political situation. He was a man I had completely no surprise to. ”
In 1938, the Songhu anti-Japanese guerrillas were destroyed by the Japanese army and failed, and Dong Jianwu returned to Shanghai. Because of the dangerous situation and the difficulty of maintaining the family's livelihood, he went to the Wang Pseudo Central Police Academy in Nanjing through the relationship of friends and became an instructor.

When he was a songhu anti-Japanese guerrilla, Dong Jianwu still used the pseudonym of Zhou Jiwu, and because of his fat body, he was called "Tuesday Fat Man". After he returned to Shanghai, the Japanese gendarmes in Shanghai searched everywhere for the "Fat Man on Tuesday" and offered a reward of 50,000 oceans.
One day in June 1942, Pan Hannian suddenly called Dong Jianwu and asked him to meet. After the two met, Dong Jianwu asked what the task was. The task given to him by Pan Hannian was to continue to remain in the pseudo-central police academy in secret identity and to grasp the accurate situation of students at all levels of the pseudo-central police academy. A few months later, he was given another task by Pan Hannian to use his position to rescue a group of Soldiers of the New Fourth Army. With the cooperation of the underground party, Dong Jianwu successfully rescued the soldiers of the New Fourth Army. However, his actions were soon detected by Japanese agents, and under the warning of Pan Hannian, he had to leave the pseudo-central police academy and return to Shanghai. Since then, he has lost contact with the party organization again, and he has done many jobs to make ends meet for his family.
In April 1949, the artillery of the People's Liberation Army approached Suzhou. Dong Jianwu got to know Mr. He Minling of the Kuomintang Revolutionary Committee, and when he learned that Li Baichuan, the commander of Suzhou City Defense, was an old subordinate of General Feng Yuxiang and a student of He Minxing, he decided to go to Suzhou to carry out counter-rebellion work and assist the People's Liberation Army in the peaceful liberation of Suzhou.
Dong Jianwu and General Feng Yuxiang were friends, and he relied on this relationship to instigate and persuade Li Baichuan to revolt and surrender, and after repeated work, he finally reached an agreement with Li to peacefully liberate Suzhou and completed the task of plotting rebellion.
After the liberation of Shanghai, Dong Jianwu was unemployed at home and worked as an ordinary employee in a small factory. Soon after, under the arrangement of the organization, he used the materials he had mastered at the pseudo-central police academy to do a lot of fruitful work for Shanghai to eliminate the lurking enemy.
In 1955, Dong Jianwu was arrested by the Shanghai Public Security Bureau for the Pan Hannian case, and because there was no solid evidence, he was "released on guarantee pending further investigation" under the care of Premier Zhou, and in 1957 he was released and returned home to accept the surveillance and transformation of the people. In order to make a living, he relied on a little medical knowledge he mastered and became a tuina doctor. Two years later, a friend appeared and changed his life again.
In June 1960, when An old friend of the Chinese Communist Party and an American journalist Snow visited China for the first time after liberation, he met Chairman Mao Zedong and proposed to meet "Pastor Wang" whom he had met in Xi'an. At this time, Chairman Mao Zedong found out that the secret envoy named Zhou Jiwu and the "Pastor Wang" who escorted Snow were Dong Jianwu, who raised the three brothers of Mao Anying in Shanghai. Due to historical reasons, Dong Jianwu, who was monitored and transformed by the people, missed the opportunity to meet his old friend Snow, but he finally ushered in the last glory of his life.
On February 7, 1961, Dong Jianwu was told to go to the Jin Jiang Hotel, he sat in the parlor, not knowing what would happen next, and just when he was nervous, the door opened and two people walked in. Walking in front is Chen Geng, followed by Ke Qingshi, secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee. Although he hadn't seen him for more than twenty years, he recognized Chen Geng at a glance. Chen Geng quickly stepped forward and held his hand tightly, and the two people who had experienced countless bloody rains and winds hugged each other tightly.
From the beginning of liberation until 1961, no matter what difficulties were encountered,
He was not proud of his achievements, and he did not think of contacting those old friends. So after Chen Geng met with him, he asked him why he didn't write a letter to contact him? He replied very truthfully, saying only that he was afraid that your officials would become too big to climb high.
In June 1962, under the approval of Ke Qingshi, Dong Jianwu was arranged as a counselor in the counselor's office. In early 1970, Dong Jianwu was operated on at Shanghai Dongfanghong Hospital for stomach bleeding. In July, after being diagnosed with stomach cancer by a cancer hospital, he was hospitalized in the First People's Hospital and Dongfanghong Hospital. In October, lying in a hospital bed, he did not know that his old friend Snow had repeatedly requested permission to come to China, and while waiting for Mao Zedong's reception, Snow remembered his old friend. On December 12, 1970, an outstanding Communist Party member who had been fighting on the secret front for a long time and had made outstanding historical contributions passed away without waiting for his old friends to come to meet him.
