He was a legendary figure, originally born in a family with rich conditions, but later because of the war, his family fell behind, he understood a truth in the chaotic world, resolutely decided to join the Communist Party, became an underground party member of our party, and began an obscure but dangerous life.
When he was 28 years old and just married for 9 days, he left his wife and hometown and went to Taiwan to become an underground party member, which was 42 years, and in 1989, he returned to his hometown like an old farmer, at this time he was 70 years old, his wife waited for him for 42 years without remarrying, after determining his identity, everyone looked at him with admiration and respect.
Xie Hanguang's path to joining the party
The legendary figure to be said today is named Xie Hanguang, who was born in 1919 in a wealthy family in Fengshun County, Guangdong Province, with good family conditions, Xie Hanguang, who lived a relatively good life since childhood, not only able to eat and wear warm, but also be able to study well, and finally at the age of 19, he was admitted to the Forestry Department of the Agricultural College of Guangxi University with excellent results.
After graduating from college at the age of 23, Xie Hanguang went to work in a forest farm in Liuzhou, relying on his professional technical ability and hard work, soon Xie Hanguang was promoted to become the director of the forest farm, when the Outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War broke out, Xie Hanguang was able to have the opportunity to contact the Communist Party, in the process of contact, some of Xie Hanguang's ideas began to be influenced by the Communist Party, and the idea of joining the Party had already shown signs at this time.
When the Japanese persecuted the Communists, Xie Hanguang desperately accepted those fleeing Communists and regarded his forest farm as a refuge for everyone, and this profound spirit of righteousness touched the Communists at that time, that is, in these processes, Xie Hanguang met Chen Zhonghao, a Communist Party member who influenced his life.
Chen Zhonghao and Xie Hanguang graduated from the same major of the same school, Chen Zhonghao is 4 years younger than Xie Hanguang, and is considered to be Xie Hanguang's younger brother, but Chen Zhonghao joined the party earlier, his thinking is much more advanced than Xie Hanguang, under the influence of Chen Zhonghao, Xie Hanguang is more and more interested in the Communist Party.
In 1944, the Japanese launched the Battle of Yuxianggui, because the Internal Problems of the Kuomintang Army at that time were serious, and the combat effectiveness was average, so soon Guangxi fell, Xie Hanguang was forced to leave Guangxi, flee north to Sichuan, on the way to escape, Xie Hanguang, who had no worries about food and clothing, deeply felt the living conditions of the poor people in a chaotic world.
After he went to Sichuan, Xie Hanguang's thinking underwent tremendous changes, and Xie Hanguang, who had experienced setbacks and tribulations, believed that if he wanted to change the current bad situation, he must have some people with advanced ideas to lead the people in order to completely change the status quo. The Kuomintang is obviously not good, and the Communist Party is the best candidate.
With the help of the Communist Party, Xie Hanguang became an ordinary teacher in Sichuan and temporarily stabilized his life, and later, Xie Hanguang, who was determined to join the Communist Party, after moving from Sichuan to Qionglai and finally to Hong Kong, found the person in charge of the South China Branch of Hong Kong, and after being introduced, successfully joined the Communist Party in 1945 and became a member of our party.
Leaving his newlywed wife to lurk in Taiwan for 42 years
During his time in Hong Kong, Xie Hanguang met his lover, the two fell in love, and both reached the age of marriage, and finally in early 1946, the two married in Hong Kong and became husband and wife. In the year that Xie Hanguang fell in love and married, the situation in China has changed dramatically, the Japanese have been defeated and surrendered, but a civil war has broken out between the Kuomintang and the Communists, and the current situation is very complicated.
After careful consideration, our party organization decided to let Xie Hanguang become an underground party member to lurk in Taiwan, and the main reason why Xie Hanguang wanted to go to Taiwan was that Taiwan's agriculture and forestry industry were relatively developed, and Xie Hanguang himself studied the forestry department, and he could better lurk there.
When Xie Hanguang received the task of going to Taiwan, he and his wife had just been married for 9 days, and they were still in the newlywed Yan'er, but the eldest husband was "in Xu Guo, it was difficult for Xu Qing", he could only choose to leave his wife in a hurry and go to Taiwan to lurk.
When he left his wife, due to the special nature of the situation and identity, Xie Hanguang just hurriedly said goodbye, did not explain where he was going, and did not say when he would return, he only told his wife to wait for him to return, and did not say a word, but his wife understood that he must have gone on a mission.
No one thought that Xie Hanguang would go for 42 years, less than 28 years old when he went, still a young youth, and when he came back, he would already be a 70-year-old man. After going to Taiwan, Xie Hanguang first went to Keelung Middle School to find Zhong Haodong, who was the principal, and he was one of the first underground party members of our party to lurk in Taiwan.
Under the introduction of Zhong Haodong, Xie Hanguang went to the Lotus Pond Branch of the Forestry Experimental Institute to work in his own professional field, where Xie Hanguang worked hard and was reused, laying the foundation for the later establishment of an underground party liaison base. In 1947, the party organization sent Zhang Bozhe to Taiwan to find Xie Hanguang, and Zhang Bozhe and Chen Zhonghao knew each other well, so Chen Zhonghao asked him to go to Taiwan and directly look for Xie Hanguang.
Thanks to the efforts of the two men, Hsieh's work station became the second important base for the underground party's secret liaison in Taiwan, the first being the Keelung Middle School where Zhong Haodong was located. Xie Hanguang, Zhang Bozhe and others worked secretly to provide our party with a lot of useful information, and they joined forces with the underground party members of Keelung Middle School to set up the "Haiyan Reading Club" in Taiwan to teach advanced ideas and influence progressive youth.
In addition, they also secretly printed the Guangming Bao from the mainland to convey various victory news of the Communist Party, so as to encourage everyone, and later Xie Hanguang's good friend Chen Zhonghao also went to Taiwan, and everyone worked in Taiwan and made great contributions.
However, this stable life did not last long, and after Chiang Kai-shek's gradual defeat on the mainland, he planned to retreat to the Taiwan region, and it was at this time that Taiwan Chairman Chen Cheng discovered the "Guangming Bao" printed by the Taiwan underground party and explained the situation to Chiang Kai-shek, who was very angry and arranged for Chen Cheng to begin the purging of the underground party in Taiwan.
In 1949, the underground party ushered in a huge test, the first persecution was The Keelung Middle School Zhong Haodong and his companions, after Zhong Haodong was arrested, he was resolutely unwilling to say another underground party liaison base, nor did he want to disclose any information about the underground party, and eventually he was brutally killed.
After the sacrifice of Zhong Haodong, the Kuomintang continued to strengthen the persecution of the underground party, the white terror in Taiwan reached its peak, the identity of Chen Zhonghao and others was also exposed, after Xie Hanguang and the arrangements of the party organization, Chen Zhonghao returned to the mainland smoothly under the guise of others, and Xie Hanguang and others continued to lurk in Taiwan.
Later, Cai Xiaoqian, a key member of the underground party, was arrested and confessed to Xie Hanguang and others, and by this time, the matter had become out of control; Zhang Bozhe, a member of the underground party, and others had been arrested and killed by Kuomintang agents, and Xie Hanguang quickly escaped in danger and went to a remote mountain tribe village and lived here for 38 years.
In this small village, the people's customs are simple, and everyone respects Xie Hanguang with knowledge and culture, not only treats him kindly, but also gives Xie Hanguang a new identity "Ye Yikui", which is the name of a missing villager in the village.
Xie Hanguang returned to his hometown
Xie Hanguang lived in the village for 38 years, the village chief once introduced him to the object, but Xie Hanguang politely refused, he has been looking forward to his return to his hometown, waiting to wait, and finally in 1987 came the opportunity, when Taiwan lifted martial law, allowing everyone to return to the mainland to visit relatives and friends.
Xie Hanguang was thrilled after learning the news, relying on the identity of "Ye Yikui", as an old farmer, he returned to his hometown after 42 years of absence in 1989, and after he returned to his hometown, he saw an old lady with some familiar eyes, and a middle-aged man standing next to him.
The old lady recognized Xie Hanguang at a glance, the two had not seen each other for 42 years, and the tears were hazy in an instant, hugging each other, this old lady was Xie Hanguang's wife, who had waited for him in his hometown for 42 years without marrying anyone else, and the middle-aged man next to him who was confused was Xie Hanguang's son, when Xie Hanguang left, his wife was already pregnant, and the child born was the middle-aged man in front of him.
Xie Hanguang and his wife may not have thought that in the last time of this life, they can actually be reunited, the family is also considered to be reunited, after the reunion, the next step is to confirm Xie Hanguang's identity, due to the long time, plus he was a member of the underground party, it was as difficult to confirm the identity as ascending to the heavens.
Fortunately, Xie Hanguang's friend Chen Zhonghao was still alive, Xie Hanguang found Chen Zhonghao, who contacted more than a dozen comrades-in-arms to jointly write materials to prove Xie Hanguang's identity, and after continuous confirmation, he finally determined Xie Hanguang's identity and gave him the treatment he deserved.
In 1996, that is, 7 years after returning to his hometown, two years after confirming his identity, Xie Hanguang died of illness in his hometown at the age of 77, and his legendary life came to an end, when everyone knew Xie Hanguang's true identity, they all looked at him with admiration and respect.
