Sun Rongjiu went up to the mountains as a bandit because of his martial arts skills, why was he appointed as the commander of the Nationalist and Communist armies, and what was the outcome

On March 26, 1947, after the news came out that the evil bandit Sun Rongjiu had been captured, the people who had suffered so much from him clapped their hands and ran to tell each other.

Speaking of which, the people in the northeast in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty were deprived and oppressed by warlords and bureaucrats, and because a large number of refugees invaded the Kanto in order to survive, the flow of people became larger and larger, so the lives of the common people became more and more difficult, and many people fell into the grass and became bandits.

However, Sun Rongjiu's work as a bandit is not forced by life. As early as a teenager, he studied art from his teacher and learned some martial arts. He felt that he had to give full play to his martial arts expertise, so he colluded with the local goons to do the business of robbing the house.

Sun Rongjiu is treacherous and vicious, and his work is even more black-hearted. Once, he saw an old lady wearing a gold ring on her hand and wanted to take it for herself. The result can not be taken down. So he ignored the old man's pleas, and actually cut off the old man's fingers and took them away with the gold ring.

At the age of 17, the inhuman Sun Rongjiu went up the mountain to become a bandit.

When he was a bandit, he did not talk about the rule of "rabbits do not eat the grass on the edge of the nest", as long as it was a rich family, he not only went to rob, but also took the robbed family members as family members, abducted them to the mountains as "human tickets", and forced their families to pay money to ransom people.

If his family did not come to redeem him in time, he would torture people in different ways, such as beatings and scalding soldering irons. In order to force the ticket to have a family to redeem people, if the family can not send the ransom as soon as possible, he will cut off the ear of the ticket or cut off a finger, let people send it to their home.

If he really can't pay the ransom, he will be tortured to death. His methods of torturing people are also very cruel, such as lighting sky lanterns, cutting hearts and so on. Over time, Sun Rongjiu's heart was famous. But everyone who was kidnapped by him had to do everything they could to raise money to ransom people. Therefore, he did not rob nine of the ten, and he was very much valued by the bandits.

After the "September 18 Incident", patriots from all over the country joined the ranks of resisting Japan and saving the country, but Sun Rongjiu defected to the Japanese, became a traitor, and helped the Japanese to continuously suppress the patriots in Northeast China.

After the restoration of the "Eighth Five-Year Plan", Sun Rongjiu took advantage of the chaos of the situation and collected a group of remnants of the army and bandits, and Occupied the Mountain as king. At that time, while killing and looting, he continued to expand his team, and soon expanded the team to thousands of people, and together with Xie Wendong, Li Huatang and Zhang Yuxin, the three major bandits, he became a representative figure among the bandits in the northeast, known as the "four flagpoles".

In November 1945, under the inspiration of our army, Sun Rongjiu defected to our army.

However, at the same time, in order to control the northeast, the nationalist army is also trying to win over bandits and local armed forces. They not only promised high-ranking officials to the bandits they co-opted, but also provided a large number of firearms and so on.

For example, Zhang Yuxin, one of the "four flagpoles", was co-opted by the Nationalist army and was incorporated into the advance army of the Tenth Army, and he was also appointed as the commander of the advance army.

Zhang Yuxin was instructed by the Nationalist army to continue to win more bandits for the Nationalist army, so he found Sun Rongjiu.

In order to win Sun Rongjiu into the Nationalist army, Zhang Yuxin, in the name of commander, appointed Sun Rongjiu as the commander of the 1st Army of the 15th Group Army, and let him sit in the county seat of Boli County.

After Sun Rongjiu, an old and treacherous man, secretly defected to the Nationalist army, in order to obtain greater benefits, he actually stepped on two boats, on the one hand, he wanted to take advantage of our army, on the other hand, he wanted to fish for oil and water on the nationalist side. So he kept wavering, never deciding which side to go to.

Originally, in the eyes of many bandits in the northeast, the national army was the regular army, and our army could only be regarded as a miscellaneous army. Because the number of the Nationalist army is larger than that of our army, and the armaments are also advanced than our army, when the Nationalist army is preparing to attack the north of the east, many bandits and local armed forces have defected to the nationalist army.

Sun Rongjiu also believed that although he was absorbed by our army and became a commander, his ranks did not greatly expand because of this. Moreover, our army is strictly disciplined; although he is a commander, not only can he not earn money and engage women, but he also lives a poor and bitter life.

On the other hand, Zhang Yuxin, as a commander in the Nationalist Army, wanted the wind to get the wind, wanted the rain to get the rain, not only lived in the Western-style building, ate and drank spicy women all day, but also rose all the way to the rank of rich, mixed very proudly.

After some thought, Sun Rongjiu decided to hurry up and make meritorious contributions before the arrival of the nationalist army, so as to give himself the opportunity to win promotion and get rich. Therefore, on December 12, he pulled the team out of the county seat of Boli on the pretext of collecting bandits at Linkou. After walking to a deserted place on the outskirts, he suddenly ordered that all the Communist Cadres in the ranks be killed.

Immediately afterward, Sun Rongjiu led his troops to attack the county seat of Boli county, and a fierce battle broke out with the defenders stationed in the county seat of Boli. In the end, due to the weak garrison of the Northeast Democratic Coalition Army and the failure to defend the county seat of Boli, the remaining Communist cadres and coalition soldiers in the city were all killed by Sun Rongjiu.

However, at this time, Sun Rongjiu also lost troops in the battle, and the armed team was greatly weakened. Therefore, soon after he occupied the county seat of Boli, he was counterattacked by the Northeast Democratic Coalition Army. In order to preserve his strength, he had to lead the remnants of his forces to abandon the city and flee. Since then, Sun Rongjiu and his bandits have been wandering around Boli and Huanan.

In 1946, the 359th Brigade entered Boley.

At this time, don't talk about Boli, that is, there are many bandits in the entire Hejiang District. They burned and looted everywhere, which had a great impact on the production and life of the local masses. At the same time, these bandits also carried out a great deal of sabotage of the revolutionary work carried out by our army, of which the "four flagpoles" were the most rampant.

In order to eliminate and suppress the bandits, the Hejiang Military Region of the Northeast Democratic Coalition Army, together with the 359th Brigade, set up a bandit suppression unit and decided to "capture the thief first and capture the king first," first arrest the "four flagpoles," and then wipe out the remaining bandits.

Soon, Xie Wendong, Zhang Yuxin, and Li Huatang were arrested one after another, but the cunning Sun Rongjiu escaped from the encirclement and suppression of the bandit troops several times, and hid in the mountains with the few remaining bandits.

In January 1947, despite the heavy snow sealing the mountain and the extinction of birds and beasts, in order to capture Sun Rongjiu, the bandit suppression troops still organized a team to enter the mountain with local people to encircle and suppress the remnants of Sun Rongjiu's bandit team. After 6 days and 6 nights of pursuit, most of Sun Rongjiu's bandits were wiped out.

The fierce pursuit and fierce beating of the bandit troops made Sun Rongjiu's bandits panic. Everyone thinks that the main force of our army has reached the northeast, but the national army is far away, and they are simply being tricked by the national army. Therefore, many people advocate burying the gun and then going home to see what is going on.

Sun Rongjiu understood that even if he did not resist for the time being, because he betrayed our army and killed many Communists and soldiers, even if he did not choose to continue to oppose our army, he would be very sympathetic to our army. So, he decided to fight to the end. In order to stabilize the hearts of the army, he killed two of the most fierce bandits on the spot, and then he led the bandits and continued to flee to the deep mountains and dense forests.

However, due to the thick snow on the ground, Sun Rongjiu and his party would leave a messy footprint where they walked, which forced him to break up the team and move separately. He took two close retinues, Peng Zhibing and Xiao Yezi, and wandered to the mountains around Yanjia District in Huanan County.

Sun Rongjiu knew that 150 meters away from Majia Street in Yanjia District, Huanan County, there was a fairy cave. The Immortal Cave was a very hidden cave that had earlier been used as a secret contact point by bandits such as Zhang Yuxin, so a lot of grain was stored there.

After Sun Rongjiu rushed to the Immortal Cave, he saw that the grain was still there, and he couldn't help but say happily, the mountain is high and densely forested, who can know that I am hiding here. Those who suppressed the bandit troops also had to eat and sleep, and could they stay in the mountains for a winter?

But after all, the stored grain is limited, and after Sun Rongjiu lived in the cave for 2 months, there was very little grain left in the cave. Sun Rongjiu tried several times to go down the mountain to grab grain, but found that the bandit troops had not retreated at all, and as soon as they emerged, they were chased and intercepted by the militia under the mountain, and they were almost captured.

In the end, Sun Rongjiu had to kill the horse he was riding and temporarily fill his hunger.

However, it was also uncomfortable to eat horse meat every day, so he sent Xiaoyezi down the mountain and tried to find a way to sneak into the village work group, inquire more about the news, and find an opportunity to take them out of the mountain.

I didn't expect the little leaf to be gone. Seeing that he could not wait, Sun Rongjiu had to take Peng Zhibin to touch Majia Street again when it was dark. This time, they quietly entered the old Wang's house at the east end of the village.

It should be said that in addition to the old wangtou and his wife, there is only a little grandson of five or six years old left in the old wangtou family. After Sun Rongjiu entered the old king's head's house, he immediately asked the old king head to find some food for them. Lao Wang looked at Sun Rongjiu's disheveled face and bearded face, and he had already guessed in his heart that they must be bandits who had been encircled and suppressed.

As he circled with Sun Baojiu, he gently touched his little grandson next to him with his foot. The clever little grandson immediately understood what Grandpa meant, so he ran out of the door on the pretext of wanting to pee, and then ran to the bandit troops stationed in the west of the village.

When the little grandson ran back with the bandit troops, Sun Rongjiu and Peng Zhibin had already run away.

It turned out that Sun Rongjiu was extremely suspicious, and after he saw his little grandson go out, he had a bad premonition, so he didn't care to wait for the old king to find food for him, so he took Peng Zhibin and quickly returned to the mountain.

However, because Sun Rongjiu and Peng Zhibin had talked about small leaves in front of Lao Wangtou, Lao Wangtou provided clues to the bandit troops. Therefore, Xiao Yezi, who had only recently joined the work group, had to confess his relationship with Sun Rongjiu and the task of infiltrating the work group.

After discussion, the bandit suppression troops believed that Sun Rongjiu was short of grain and rice, that when the snow closed the mountain and could not find food in the mountains, it would not be long before he would definitely go down the mountain again. Considering that Sun Rongjiu had a gun in his hand, in order to avoid him harming the masses, the bandit troops immediately assembled their troops and began a large-scale search of the mountain.

At this moment, the masses under monkey rock mountain reported that they had seen two suspicious-looking people on the mountain.

So the bandits launched a separate search of Monkey Stone Mountain, and finally they captured Sun Rongjiu and Peng Zhibin alive in a wooden house on the mountainside.

In April 1947, the people's government held a public trial meeting in The county seat of Boli. Those who had been harmed by Sun Rongjiu all came to denounce his evil deeds. In front of the angry crowd, the bandit, whose hands were stained with blood, was sentenced to death.

After seeing that the last giant bandit in the "four flagpoles" was shot, the remaining small bandit forces in the northeast also clearly realized that it was futile to resist fearlessly, so they laid down their weapons one after another and chose to surrender. At this point, the action of suppressing bandits, which lasted for more than a year, finally won a comprehensive victory.
