When watching spy movies and TV series, we can often see the scene of assassination. The protagonist took great pains to secretly sneak into the enemy's high-level side, use his wisdom and skills, and finally kill the target in one fell swoop, and after the completion of the work, he can quietly retreat, leaving no trace, leaving only a handsome and dashing back. It's a lot of ups and downs, and it's quite exciting.
Since human society has had politics and war, assassinations have followed at the same time, and no one can say for sure the historical node of the birth of assassination. But as the darkest means of political struggle, it has changed the course of human history countless times.
Just like the assassination of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, which led to more than 100 years of black and white racial strife in the United States. It is also like in 1914, the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, Archduke Ferdinand, was assassinated in Sarajevo, which directly became the trigger of the First World War. The above is enough to see the weight of assassination in the course of human history.
Assassination is a delicate task, not completed overnight, but requires years and months to wait for the opportunity. Although there are a considerable number of political agents in various countries in the world today, it is quite difficult to assassinate a high-ranking celebrity. Today, Xiaobian will introduce you to the 4 most difficult celebrities in the world to assassinate. Among them, there is a Chinese on the list, and another person who has been assassinated by the United States 640 times.
The fourth was the famous Russian monk Rasputin, who was born in 1869 to an ordinary peasant family in Tsarist Russia. At the age of 30, he became a famous god stick in Tsarist Russia, and by spreading cults and spreading rumors, he captured the heart of the Tsar at that time, and Rasputin became the tsar's favorite vassal and extremely powerful.
However, Rasputin relied on his own power, amassed wealth everywhere, and did all the bad things, and the reputation of the people could be said to be extremely poor. Everyone in Russia wants to blame it. In 1914, on a missionary journey, Rasputin was stabbed in the abdomen by a peasant woman with a knife, but with his "magic", he stubbornly survived.
Until the end of 1916, after offending Prince Yusupov of Tsarist Russia, he was tricked into going to his palace, and after eating two poisonous cakes, Rasputin fell to the ground in an instant, and in order to prevent him from resurrection, Prince Yusupov also shot him twice in the head, and Rasputin was finally killed.
The third was Dai Kasa, the head of secret agents during the Republic of China period. As the head of the military command of the largest secret service agency in the Republic of China, Dai Kasa assassinated countless people inside and outside the party, and his hands can be said to be stained with blood. At the same time, he was also the most difficult person to be assassinated during the Republic of China. Because of his uncertain whereabouts, he is often haunted, and even called the most mysterious figure in Asia by the American "Collaires" magazine.
There are data surfaces, during the Republic of China period, there were as many as 180 assassination operations against Dai Kasa, but each time Dai Kasa was able to escape and turn the danger into a disaster. Ironically, this so-called "the most difficult man to assassinate in the Republic of China" died in an air crash in 1946, which can be regarded as the end he deserved.
The second place was Hitler, who was famous during World War II. As the initiator of The Second World War, Allied forces around the world orchestrated numerous assassinations of him. This history was even made into a movie called "The Assassination of Hitler."
Hitler had been assassinated 230 times in his lifetime, but Hitler's security measures were too strict, not only did he have many stand-ins, but also an airtight, rock-solid Berlin underground command room. Officially, until the end of World War II, the Allies did not succeed, but the day before the victory, Hitler committed suicide by drinking bullets in his airtight bunker.
The first place was Castro, the first leader of the Republic of Cuba. This man is a legend, as early as when he was in college, he joined the patriotic movement against the American dictatorship. After that, he went to politics, single-handedly led the entire Cuban Revolution, and created the Republic of Cuba and the Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces. At the same time, he is also the number one stumbling block to U.S. interests in South America and a thorn in the eyes of the U.S. government.
To this end, the US military did not spare no effort to assassinate him. In 1997, the CIA released a classified file documenting all of Castro's assassinations, more than 640. Especially during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the number of assassinations was innumerable. However, none of the 640 assassinations were successful, and Castro died on November 25, 2016.
Assassination is the best representation of a dark political struggle, which indirectly shows a history that ordinary people cannot see. Although it is not a glorious act, it must be admitted that these assassinations are indeed dangerous and fascinating. It has also become the world's most popular talking point, the most enthusiastic theme on the screen, to this day, there is still a lot of topicality.
