No matter how handsome the TV show is, spying has always been a high-risk profession. You can refer to many TV series such as "Infernal Affairs" and "Latent", and will give up a lot for the ideal in your heart. Li Zongren had a high-ranking spy under him who collected a lot of intelligence from the Japanese army. Taierzhuang can win, his intelligence is very important, this person is Xia Wenyun. He was also very unsatisfactory, and in his later years he could only live in Japan, poor and depressed. Obviously, with the support of Li Zongren and such a great achievement, why was his old age so tragic?
Xia Wenyun is a native of Dalian, Liaoning Province, and graduated from Lushun Normal School. Due to the excellence of each subject, Xia Wenyun went to Japan to study nearby and was admitted to the Hiroshima High School in Japan. There is also a small story here, that is, Xia Wenyun and a Japanese woman Sasaki had an affair. Perhaps also a trick of fate, Xia Wenyun did not live in Japan. Because Sasaki did not have children, Natsu and Sasaki broke up. Since God has given him a more important mission, he will not let him live an ordinary life.
After graduating from Xia Wenyun in 1929, he was admitted to the Imperial University of Japan for graduate school due to his excellent grades. After graduation, Xia Wenyun, who was excellent in Japanese, returned to Shenyang and worked as a professor and secretary to the president at a university. If you are familiar with history, you know that 1931 was not an ordinary year, and the September 18 Incident broke out in that year. Subsequently, a series of events occurred. Zhang Xueliang withdrew from the northeast, and Puyi established a puppet state of Manchukuo in the northeast. It is precisely for this reason that Xia Wenyun, who is a Chinese, is unemployed. No one expected that this would be a turning point in his life.
In fact, Xia Wenyun was originally just an ordinary character, and at first he just wanted to eat a mixed meal. After being introduced, Xia Wenyun entered the government office of puppet Manchukuo. We can look at the people who entered the Japanese military system throughout the War of Resistance Against Japan. There were 10 million officials and families in or with the japanese pseudo-government. Hardcore traitors are indeed hateful, but we can't blame such an era, and not everyone is a hardcore traitor.
Within the Japanese military system, Xia Wenyun soon became acquainted with Kenji Doihara, Seishiro Sakagaki, Okamura Ningji and other high-ranking Japanese military leaders, and became friends with the head of the Japanese intelligence department and Chiyukaji. In order to plot against Li Zongren, xia Wenyun was asked to be the interpreter of the conversation. After seeing Li Zongren, Xia Wenyun began to contact Li Zongren, saw the prospect of serving the country, and soon became Li Zongren's first major spy. Because he was at the top of the Japanese army, it was easy to obtain intelligence. After that, whether it was marching into Wuhan, attacking Xuzhou, or transferring to central China, Xia Wenyun's intelligence was accurate and in place. As a result, the Fifth Theater Intelligence Section has long been commended. The most important piece of information was about Taierzhuang. At that time, Xia Wenyun told Li Zongren in the early stages of the Battle of Taierzhuang that "the Japanese army moved south and did not move north." According to the intelligence, Li Zongren made corresponding strategic arrangements, thus obtaining the great victory of Taierzhuang.
Unfortunately, however, due to the kuomintang's withdrawal from the mainland, Li Zongren lost his position and fled to the United States, and Xia Wenyun's identity as a spy was not known. Due to his status as a "traitor", Xia Wenyun could not live in China and had to go to Japan to live. In Japan, Xia Wenyun married a nurse. Due to the extreme poverty of post-war Japan, the two were also quite miserable. In his later years, Xia Wenyun died of cerebral hemorrhage at the age of 62 in the midst of poverty and illness.
