During the Republic of China period, in addition to chiang kai-shek's government, China also had a puppet government, the leader of which was Wang Jingwei. Wang Jingwei can be said to be the biggest traitor in China; during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he defected to the Japanese, established a Wang puppet government, and engaged in sabotaging the revolutionary cause and killing revolutionary fighters.
Wang Jingwei was also a patriotic young man with thoughts and ambitions at the beginning, but people's thinking will change with the development of society, and under the attack of the Japanese sugar-coated shells, he still chose to become a traitor. Wang Jingwei died in Japan in 1944 and was buried in Meihua Mountain, but then Chiang Kai-shek sent someone to blow up the tomb and found that the body was not decomposing, and there were four words in his pocket.
Although Wang Jingwei is the number one traitor in China's modern history, his life is also very legendary. His life can be said to have gone from being an Assassin to fame and eventually being assassinated by an Assassin and causing a bullet to remain in his body and unfortunately died. Originally a young man with thoughts and ambitions, he had the courage to assassinate the regent when he was young, why did he end up as a traitor?
Wang Jingwei joined the League established by Comrade Sun Yat-sen very early on, and he can be said to be one of the earliest followers of Sun Yat-sen. At the behest of Sun Yat-sen, he became the editor-in-chief of the Minbao newspaper, using the newspaper as a position to express some of his own views. The revolutionary party represented by Sun Yat-sen revolted many times, but all of them failed, and Wang Jingwei also felt very defeated.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, although Puyi was not an emperor, the real power was not in his hands, but in the hands of the regent. At that time, Wang Jingwei was still a fledgling young man, and he believed that as long as the regent died, he could implement the new policy. So he gathered a group of people to assassinate the regent, although this idea is very direct and simple, but it also shows that Wang Jingwei is a young man with hot blood.
Wang Jingwei's assassination of the regent ultimately failed, and their group were also arrested and imprisoned, but Wang Jingwei did not regret it, still expressed his strong revolutionary consciousness in prison, and also expressed his ambition by mentioning poetry. Later, after he was released from prison, he entered the Nanjing government, became a politician, and began to walk on the road of no return.
Although Wang Jingwei was a young man with positive ideas at first, after he was imprisoned, it could be seen that his thinking was not firm and he was assimilated by the Qing government. A small interest will make him change his faith, so after he was released from prison, he went to the political arena and became a politician who only pursued interests.
Later, Wang Jingwei studied in France, and after returning to China, he became an ally with Chiang Kai-shek, and the two men assassinated revolutionaries everywhere, seeing the Communist Party as a thorn in the eye. The killing of the two revolutionary volunteers caused dissatisfaction among many progressives, so many people wanted to kill them quickly, and Wang Jingwei attended the Sixth Plenary Session of the Fourth Central Committee of the Kuomintang with Chiang Kai-shek after returning to China.
This was the first important meeting that Wang Jingwei attended after returning to China, so he attached great importance to it, but there was a small episode in the meeting. The regular meetings of the Kuomintang generally require all of them to wear uniform services as a sign of respect for the congress. However, because the meeting was not not in place, everyone did not wear uniform clothing, which also made Chiang Kai-shek very unhappy.
After the conference, the participants should come forward to take a group photo, but Chiang Kai-shek was worried about the ununified clothing, so he did not come out to take pictures in the background. Wang Jingwei wanted to have a happy ending to the first congress he participated in, so he took the initiative to invite Chiang Kai-shek to take a group photo, but Chiang Kai-shek did not move and refused to go to the front desk.
Chiang Kai-shek originally wanted to persuade Wang Jingwei not to go, but Wang Jingwei himself was very excited, and he had to be successful in the first congress he attended after returning to China, so he happily went to take pictures. After the group photo ended, suddenly a reporter rushed out and fired three shots at Wang Jingwei, and in an instant Wang Jingwei fell in a pool of blood, and the scene was very chaotic.
This journalist was a progressive man who used his identity as a journalist as a cover to complete the assassination mission, and originally wanted to assassinate Chiang Kai-shek, but because Chiang Kai-shek did not appear, he changed his target. Wang Jingwei was quickly taken to the hospital, the first two shots were not fatal, the bullet was taken out by the doctor, but there was a bullet in the back that could not be removed, although there was no fear of life, but the impact was great.
Years later, the bullet haunted Wang Jingwei, and in order to prevent the collapse of the Wang puppet government, the Japanese offered to send Wang Jingwei to Japan for treatment. But because the bullet was so deadly, he was already terminally ill. After being sent to Japan, the treatment did not work, and he died in Shanghai not long after, after which the body was sent back to China and buried in Meihua Mountain.
Chiang Kai-shek has always been very unhappy with Wang Jingwei's cemetery, and he is also very close to Sun Yat-sen's cemetery, so Chiang Kai-shek used this as an excuse to let the army commander blow up Wang Jingwei's tomb. After careful planning, Ma Chongliu and others implemented the plan, but because Wang Jingwei's cemetery was too strong to be relocated, it could only be blown up.
After Wang Jingwei's tomb was blown up, his body was exposed from the coffin, and after a few years, his body did not decay, and the person lay in the coffin with a very complete forehead, with a note left next to him. The note read four big words for the return of the soul. This should have been written by Wang Jingwei's wife, expressing his desire to be buried in his homeland.
In order to prevent the explosion of the tomb from being discovered, the cemetery was razed to the ground overnight, and Wang Jingwei's body was sent to the crematorium for cremation. After the cemetery was bombed, Chiang Kai-shek also specially asked workers to repair a pavilion on the top of the land, which became a sightseeing spot, and many people came here to enjoy the scenery, but they did not know that this was originally the burial place of Wang Jingwei.
Now Nanjing Meihua Mountain is a famous scenic spot in Nanjing, where the plum blossom scenery is pleasant and very suitable for viewing. And this scenic spot is close to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, so it has become the first choice of tourist attractions for many people. But what many people don't know is that Wang Jingwei was once buried here, and Wang Jingwei's descendants have come to worship him many times.
Wang Jingwei's traitorous behavior is recognized by everyone, so he has also been assassinated by revolutionaries many times. But after his death in Japan, he also left a will, in which he defended himself, saying that he did not betray the country and seek glory, but through his own methods to save China.
