On November 27, 1949, Jiang Jie, who was imprisoned by the Kuomintang in Zha Di Dong, was secretly killed, and the relevant personnel at that time were later held responsible, including a "secret agent" who was then the guard of Zha Di Dong, who was finally arrested and interrogated for this matter, and was not finally sentenced until 1953.
When this "secret agent" heard that he had been sentenced to death, he immediately shouted with all his might: "I was wronged, I have done a lot of things for Sister Jiang." After he cried out, the state launched an investigation into the things he mentioned and asked him to provide evidence, but there has been no evidence to prove that he has done these things, and he waited for 28 years to finally reveal the truth.
Huang Maocai's early experience
The legendary figure to be talked about today is named Huang Maocai, born in Zigongrong County, Sichuan, is an authentic peasant origin, in the chaotic world, he only read until the end of junior high school, because the family is poor and can not support him to continue his studies and dropped out of school and returned home, after returning home, his father worried that he was arrested Zhuangding, so he sent him to the landlord's house to do miscellaneous work.
Later, his father died of illness, the family was really poor, unable to let his father be buried safely, so Huang Maocai followed his grandfather to ask the landlord for help, and as a result, he knelt on the ground for help, and the landlords were indifferent, this matter had a great impact on Huang Maocai's life, and it was this incident that made Huang Maocai more deeply aware of the exploitation of the people by the landlord class.
When Liu Zhongwei's family was doing miscellaneous work, Liu Zhongwei found that Huang Maocai was not only a man of humility and honesty, but also a bit of culture and could write a good hand, so he recommended him to be the secretary of the inspection office of the Chuankang Appeasement Office, and after the organization merged with the chongqing appeasement office in 1947, Huang Maocai was transferred to the second office to manage the archives.
Originally, these tasks were not complicated, and Huang Mao was completely competent, but because the relationship within the Kuomintang was more complicated at that time, even a staff member who managed the archives needed to learn to do what he liked to please others, which was really difficult for Huang Maocai, so later he was squeezed out and transferred to guard the slag hole.
When Huang Maocai first arrived here, the leaders told him not to talk to the people imprisoned inside, because they were all heinous people, but when Huang Maocai came here for a long time, he did not feel that these people were unforgiving, but he also felt that they were more cordial, that is, during this time in the slag cave, some of Huang Maocai's thinking underwent subtle changes, and finally made a lot of seemingly inconspicuous, but enough earth-shattering events.
Huang Maocai did things for Sister Jiang and others
To say that Huang Maocai's change, should start from the arrival of Zeng Zixia, in June 1948, there was a man and a woman in the slag cave two prisoners, this woman is Zeng Zixia, when she came in, she took the initiative to greet Huang Maocai, so that Huang Maocai was a little surprised, and then Zeng Zixia also talked to Huang Maocai about his hometown, and Huang Maocai was not far away, and in an instant Huang Maocai had more affection for the woman in front of him.
Later, Zeng Zixia chatted with Huang Maocai many times when she let the wind blow, so that Huang Maocai trusted him more, and also told Zeng Zixia that there was something they could find to help themselves, it can be said that Huang Maocai in this period, his thinking has been subtly changed.
Later, when Sister Jiang (formerly known as Jiang Zhujun) came to the Zhazi Cave, Huang Maocai already had a sense of affection for the people imprisoned here, and after seeing Sister Jiang, he took the initiative to say hello and quietly told Sister Jiang that if there was anything that needed help, he could find himself. Such a move made Sister Jiang a little confused, and Sister Jiang, who had just come here, did not know the specific situation, and did not take care of Huang Maocai at that time.
Soon after being imprisoned in the Zha Di Cave, Sister Jiang was pulled out for interrogation once, and when she returned, she was locked up in the cell where Zeng Zixia was located, and when she saw the scars on Sister Jiang's body, Huang Maocai suddenly had respect for Sister Jiang, and when she listened to the staff guarding the Zha Di Cave and Huang Maocai told sister Jiang's story and Sister Jiang's spiritual quality of being interrogated but always being unyielding, Huang Maocai was even more solemn about Sister Jiang.
After they were locked up with Zeng Zixia, Sister Jiang also heard about Huang Maocai, she thought that Huang Maocai was highly malleable, as long as they communicated with him more, maybe they could impress Huang Maocai and let him help the party organization to do some things. After making up their minds, Sister Jiang and Zeng Zixia and others began to take the initiative to chat with Huang Maocai and make subtle changes to him.
When everyone trusted each other, Huang Maocai also expressed his willingness to help Sister Jiang do things, in order to test Huang Maocai, Sister Jiang and others wrote a letter to let Huang Maocai send it to the designated place, after receiving this task, Huang Maocai was still a little hesitant, if he was discovered, he was likely to lose his life, under the encouragement of Sister Jiang and others, Huang Maocai finally plucked up the courage to take advantage of his rest and sent this letter to the designated place.
After the first attempt, Huang Maocai was no longer afraid, and Jiang Jie and others trusted Huang Maocai even more, and later often asked him to help everyone send some important information out, and would also ask Huang Maocai to buy some things for everyone, and even buy newspapers to show everyone, in order to understand the changes in the outside world and the progress of the liberation war.
In order to show his gratitude to Huang Maocai, in the winter of 1948, Sister Jiang specially measured Huang Maocai's figure and asked him to go out to buy some wool, and the women in the cell each had a needle, planning to knit him a sweater.
After Huang Maocai quietly bought the wool, Jiang Jie and others quickly knitted him a sweater, which he wore on his body, instantly felt more warmth, and admired this dedication to the Communist Party even more, and later when he helped Jiang Jie and others deliver letters, Huang Maocai was no longer nervous.
With the victory of the Liaoshen Campaign and the Huaihai Campaign, the liberation of the whole country is close at hand, Huang Maocai told Jiang Jie and others about these good news, they sang and danced excitedly, and Jiang Jie also said that as long as the Pingjin Campaign was won again, the Liberation War would be won.
Although the victories on the outside were encouraging, after the Kuomintang was gradually defeated, they also made cruel decisions to deal with these patriotic young people in the slag hole, and figures such as Sister Jiang were likely to become the first patriotic young people to be killed.
As an ordinary guard Huang Maocai, all he could do was to provide more information to everyone, the rest of himself was helpless, with his frequent contact with Jiang Jie and others, his superiors also had some doubts about him and no longer trusted him, at this critical moment, Huang Maocai received a letter saying that his mother was sick, so he took leave to go home.
When Huang Maocai came to the slag cave again, he found that Jiang Jie had been killed by the Kuomintang, he was devastated, and he wanted to do more for the rest of the people in the cell, but Huang Maocai was suspected by his superiors and eventually sent him home directly, at this point, Huang Maocai and Zeng Zixia and others lost contact.
On the occasion of parting, Zeng Zixia and others wrote a letter asking Huang Maocai to help take them out, and it was this crucial letter that played a vital role in rescuing Zeng Zixia and others.
Sentenced to death
After leaving the slag cave, Huang Maocai returned to his hometown and became a village teacher, but not long after, Huang Maocai was suddenly taken away one day in 1951, saying that he suspected that he was related to the death of Sister Jiang and others, and that he was involved in the killing of Sister Jiang and others.
In 1953, after some investigation, Huang Maocai was sentenced to death, and when he heard the verdict, he shouted with all his might: "I was wronged, I have done a lot of things for Sister Jiang."
Hearing Huang Maocai shout injustice, he also said that he had done a lot of things for Sister Jiang and others, and the organization was not good at ruling, and finally changed Huang Maocai's death sentence to life imprisonment, and asked him to look for evidence to prove that he had done things for Sister Jiang and others. At that time, Huang Maocai could not find the patriotic youth in the cell to prove his innocence, and at the same time, he did not save any evidence at that time, and wanted to prove his innocence, the most important thing was the sweater that Jiang Jie and others knitted for themselves, but unfortunately, this sweater did not know where to go, and Huang Mao was difficult to distinguish.
Time passed in such a hurry, in the blink of an eye, 28 years had passed, and Huang Maocai had no longer had extravagant hopes for Ming Zhaoxue, but one day in 1981, he suddenly received a letter from the Chongqing Martyrs Cemetery Memorial Hall, asking him to go to the memorial hall director Lu Guangte to verify the truth of some historical events.
After receiving the letter, Huang Maocai was excited, went to find Lu Guangte, and told him all the things of that year, it turned out that Lu Guangte when they were sorting out the files of that year, found that there were escapers mentioned the details of Huang Maocai doing things for everyone in the cell, these things attracted everyone's attention, and only then did they find Huang Maocai to verify the situation.
After listening to Huang Maocai's words, Lu Guangte had mixed feelings and told Huang Maocai where Zeng Zixia was located, and asked Huang Maocai to go to find Zeng Zixia, who had not seen him for more than thirty years, and when Huang Maocai saw Zeng Zixia, both of them were excited, and Zeng Zixia immediately agreed to join forces with some escapist heroes to write information to prove what Huang Maocai had done.
epilogue
On April 12, 1982, with the help of Zeng Zixia and others, the truth of Huang Maocai's matter was finally revealed, and the Rong County People's Court revised the judgment against Huang Maocai 28 years ago, declaring Huang Maocai innocent, and a few days later, the Rong County CPPCC added Huang Maocai's membership as a CPPCC member and issued him a living allowance of 30 yuan per month. As for Huang Maocai's final ending, I think maybe it was already doomed when he decided to do things for Jiang Jie and others, and disregarded the danger of life, after all, people who yearn for the light will not always be shrouded in darkness!
