As we all know, the Japanese army has been preparing for the war of aggression against China for a long time, and many Japanese officers have been sent to inspect China's customs and customs on the spot very early on, for example, the famous Okamura Ninji is an authentic Chinese expert, and the early Japanese war behavior can be so smooth, these Chinese generals have played an incalculable role.
In fact, among the Chinese, there are also non-Japanese masters, and one is also known as the first person in military intelligence of the War of Resistance Against Japan, this person is named Yang Xuancheng, who is ranked as a vice admiral.
Yang Xuancheng was very old in the Kuomintang, and Huang Xing organized an organization dedicated to assassinating Qing court officials, called the "Blood Society", of which Yang Xuancheng was one of them, and then Yang Xuancheng crossed east to Japan and joined the League there.
It was during this period that Yang Xuancheng observed the customs and customs of the Japanese people in detail, laying a solid foundation for becoming a Japanese generalist. At the same time, Yang Xuancheng also went to the Naval Mine School to study, and mastered a large amount of naval combat knowledge that was very advanced at that time.
Yang Xuancheng returned to China in 1911, just in time for the Wuchang Uprising, his joining was of great benefit to the rebel army, and then the Qing Dynasty was overthrown in the torrent of the Xinhai Revolution, but Yang Xuancheng did not choose to continue to stay in China to engage in revolutionary causes, but went to the United States to continue his studies.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Yang Xuancheng was appointed as the director of the Second Department of the Military Command, presiding over the nationwide espionage work against Japan, and Chiang Kai-shek trusted him very much, and Yang Xuancheng worked in this position for 8 years. Everyone in the world knows that Chiang Kai-shek likes to appoint fellow villagers or Huangpu disciples, but Yang Xuancheng does not meet these two conditions at all, but he can become the first person in the military espionage system that Chiang Kai-shek attaches the most importance to, which shows his outstanding military intelligence ability.
Yang Xuancheng's excellence lies in his understanding of Japan's national conditions and terroir, which gives him a unique judgment of Japanese intelligence that is difficult for other generals in the national army to match, so he is also regarded as the first person to "Japan Pass".
However, it is not easy to stand alone within the Kuomintang, and as clever as Chiang Kai-shek's early think tank Yang Yongtai was killed in the factional struggle of the Kuomintang. However, Yang Xuancheng was very successful in the official field, and he has always shown himself as a peacemaker, whether it is dealing with Chiang Kai-shek or various figures in other systems, he can handle the relationship very properly.
Yang Xuancheng also had two brushes in diplomacy, and he had successively sent envoys to the United States, Britain, and Southeast Asian countries, and at the famous "Cairo Conference", Yang Xuancheng accompanied Chiang Kai-shek around, and he was already a close aide to Chiang Kai-shek at that time.
After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Yang Xuancheng participated in the surrender ceremony in Japan, and the scenery was unique for a while. Because his work during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was unanimously praised by the Allies, not only Chiang Kai-shek awarded Yang Xuancheng the Medal, but also the United States, Britain, the Soviet Union, and France also awarded Yang Xuancheng an additional medal.
