One day in 1951, it suddenly rained heavily in Peiping, the rain came too quickly, and few pedestrians on the street with umbrellas ran to the eaves of the shops on both sides of the road to hide from the rain. At that time, when the whole country was carrying out the "town counter-movement", everywhere was arresting secret agents and spies, and Liu Qichang, who had a ghost in his heart, originally wanted to come out for recreation and dispel his fears, but he was directly drenched by this heavy rain into a soup chicken. Seeing a man standing in the front door with an umbrella, he somehow squeezed straight in. After drilling in, he also came back to his senses, feeling that his behavior was very inappropriate, raised his head and was preparing to apologize, but saw the face of the umbrella owner but froze for a while; and the owner of the umbrella felt that someone had not said hello and came in, and was preparing to scold, seeing the person coming, and his heart was also shocked. Just like that, two people under the umbrella you look at me and I look at you, no one spoke, the street became more and more silent in the heavy rain, and only the faster and faster heartbeats of the two of them could be heard all around. When they met each other during this special period of "town rebellion", the two people who were already panicked and uneasy were even more afraid in their hearts, and invariably began to recall all the wrong things and even crimes they had done in the past few decades... What kind of secrets do these two people have? Why are two people who know each other so flustered when they meet on the street? And after this heavy rain, what kind of changes will occur to the trajectory of the two of them?

Arrested one after another, the truth was revealed

Who are these two people?
One is Liu Qichang, a secret agent who once defected to the Japanese army.
However, he was never discovered, and after the Japanese surrendered, they felt that he was worthless and left him;
The other is the traitor Cheng Bin who changed his name and surname to conceal his identity and betrayed the anti-Japanese hero Yang Jingyu, causing him to be brutally killed by the Japanese army.
After the street encounter, Liu Qichang moved his mind, he understood that now he is very dangerous, may soon be discovered by the People's Liberation Army, and according to the inhuman things he has done before, squatting in prison is light, it is not too much to execute, he has to find a way back.
Liu Qichang felt that Cheng Bin might have a way out now, after all, he had already changed his appearance.
Renamed from "Cheng Bin" to "Chen Ziping"
, not only erasing the black history of the past,
He was also an officer in the PLA unit and was a small section chief in charge of logistics.
Knowing that Cheng Bin had led his men to the Japanese Kwantung Army in the past, he might as well use this to pinch him and let him help him get through the difficulties in front of him.
Secret Agent Parade
Liu Qichang was trained by professional spies, he followed Cheng Bin for several days, and finally found the right time, taking advantage of the fact that no one was blocking him in the corner, and began to explain his intentions:
Afraid that he would be arrested or even lose his life because of the crime of espionage, Liu Qichang wanted Cheng Bin to provide some protection, and in the process of pleading with good words, he also revealed that he knew his past very well.
This act is both a negotiable and a threat. But this is also Cheng Bin's weakness, these days he has been afraid of his life, afraid that his crimes will be discovered by the organization, and now when he meets Liu Qichang, who knows the roots, he does not dare to refuse his request.
But what neither of them expected was that in fact, at this time
Liu Qichang has long been targeted by the relevant staff of the "town counter-movement".
They had been closely monitoring his every move. In April 1951, on a dark and windy night for a month, Liu Qichang, who had been hiding for many days, was captured by the brigade. Because the relationship between people whose interests collude together is fragile, sooner or later they will break down or even betray each other because there is no interest.
The scene of the arrest of the secret agents
The interrogators had a lot of evidence of Liu Qichang's crime, he could not argue, in order to make a meritorious contribution to the crime to strive for leniency, he bit out Cheng Bin and confessed: "He changed his name, he was originally a person from Yang Jingyu in the northeast.
Defecting to the Japanese killed Yang Jingyu, he was a traitor to the People's Liberation Army!
I know where he is, Archway Alley or Archway Alley, he must be near there! ”
On the other hand, when he learned that Liu Qichang had been arrested, Cheng Bin was panicked and uneasy, and he fled home to see no outsiders, but he was also worried that Liu Qichang would confess himself during the interrogation process, and planned to preemptively report Liu Qichang and shut his mouth. However, I didn't expect Liu Qichang to be one step faster than him, and he didn't have much to explain the past affairs of the two people clearly.
On April 28, Cheng Bin packed his bags and planned to abscond, but was captured by the People's Liberation Army, which had been ambushed for several days.
Knowing that the crime that had been concealed for many years had been exposed, Cheng Bin also had no intention of struggling, and admitted everything he had done in the past, of course, the biggest crime was
Betraying the anti-Japanese hero Yang Jingyu led to his brutal killing by the Japanese army when he ran out of ammunition.
The people present who heard the truth of the matter were indignant and eager to rush up to kill him directly, but they still restrained themselves, and then Cheng Bin was escorted to Rehe for execution.
Cheng Bin was executed
Yang Jingyu's Northeast Army
Why are people so angry? Because of Cheng Bin's betrayal, the country lost a patriot. In 1931, Japan launched the "918 Incident" and used a treacherous tactic to kill Zhang Zuolin, the "king of the Northeast", and the Northeast Army was defeated and retreated one after another without a leader, and the Northeast region fell under the iron hooves of the invaders. However, although the warlord troops in the northeast retreated to within the "Shanhaiguan", the people in the northeast did not succumb to the obscenity of the Japanese army, and many capable people began to cut down the wood and spontaneously set up various resistance teams, which is what we often call it
"Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army",
Tenaciously fought against the Japanese army. And in this one
The most famous, of course, belongs to Yang Jingyu
。
Yang Jingyu was born in 1905, his hometown is in Qishan County, Henan Province, and his original name is Ma Shangde. His father died when he was very young, and Yang Jingyu and his mother grew up on each other.
When the May Fourth Movement broke out in 1919, he was deeply troubled by the war and chaos since he was a child, and he longed for the people to be able to turn themselves into masters
Yang Jingyu was encouraged, and at the age of only 14, he resolutely threw himself into the wave of revolution.
He began to participate in various anti-Japanese activities and spilled his blood to achieve national independence. In the process, Yang Jingyu became acquainted with many progressives and Communists, began to be attracted to communism, and later naturally became a communist.
Yang Jingyu memorial painting
After joining the party in 1927, Yang Jingyu has been secretly engaged in underground work.
He was taken to prison by the Japanese army 5 times and tortured, but each time he did not give in.
In 1929, Yang Jingyu, who worked seriously, was valued and arranged by the party organization
Went to Fushun to serve as a guide.
Yang Jingyu's work in Fushun went very smoothly, he was righteous, hard-working, and deeply loved by the local people, at that time, workers and peasants were setting off all over the country, and some strike activities were also carried out in the local mines in Fushun, and Yang Jingyu was leading the way.
After that, a bigger test came to Yang Jingyu, the Japanese army invaded the northeast region, and the Kuomintang side abandoned the battle, withdrew all its troops, leaving innocent people to stubbornly resist. Although the ranks of the people who rose up were full of blood, they were often defeated by the enemy because they did not have enough combat experience and excellent commanders. At this time, Yang Jingyu came to Jilin, he carefully surveyed the local terrain and landform, and also analyzed the reasons for the failure of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army several times, and finally came to a conclusion:
It is just that no suitable method of warfare has been found, and this place is very suitable for carrying out guerrilla warfare on the mass line. He used his influence to form a rock guerrilla group to experiment
Later, it turned out that Yang Jingyu's vision was very accurate and sharp.

At that time, the northeast region was in chaos, and there were not only the anti-coalition troops on our side, but also the Japanese army and secret agents, a small number of remnants of the Kuomintang army, as well as mountain thieves and bandits and Soviets who fished in muddy waters. However, Yang Jingyu still played a style in a mess, not only repelling the Japanese army and its secret service lackeys many times, but also destroying several mountain thief dens that robbed the people, winning the praise of the common people. In the end,
The Rock Guerrillas even mingled with the local people and became what they called the people's soldiers.
In 1933, the Party organization decided
Establish an anti-Japanese national united front in the northeast region
, focusing on two guerrilla groups that have laid a good foundation, the South Manchuria Rock Guerrilla and the Sea Dragon Guerrilla,
An independent division of the First Army of the Northeast People's Revolutionary Army was formed, and Yang Jingyu was made the commander of the division.
After Yang Jingyu took office, he made remarkable achievements, and he was biased toward "outsmarting" in combat, after all, the Japanese army was well-equipped and numerous, and his side was full of inexperienced recruits, and several old hunters with good marksmanship were burning high incense. So Yang Jingyu has been insisting
"The enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy wears us down and fights," and guerrilla warfare was carried out under the cover of the common people.
Don't underestimate this old method, the effect of the anti-Japanese resistance is very obvious, the Japanese army suffered a lot of losses at the hands of Yang Jingyu, and hated him to the teeth.
Yang Jingyu and the masses
Since 1938, the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung side have successively increased their strength to the northeast, and at most there were more than 60,000 people, just to eliminate the troops led by Yang Jingyu in one fell swoop. And Yang Jingyu's side? The Independent Division of the First Army did not have more than 30,000 men at its peak. Moreover, the Japanese army once ordered: Seeing the Communist Anti-Coalition team appearing together with other teams, first fight the Communist side;
Seeing that there was Yang Jingyu in the anti-Japanese contingent, he didn't care about anything else, and took Down Yang Jingyu first.
It can be seen how jealous the Japanese army is of Yang Jingyu.
It was precisely because of this that Yang Jingyu could not be subdued on the frontal battlefield, and the cunning Japanese army began to think of crooked moves and start from the people around him.
The Japanese army targeted Cheng Bin, known as "Little Yang Jingyu", and arrested his family and forced him to do things for himself.
Cheng Bin's betrayal
Cheng Bin is an authentic northeasterner, his hometown is Jilin Rock, he was born in the first year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1912, when the old and new were handed over. Cheng Bin's family is well-off, he has also attended school for several years, listened to lectures taught by foreigners, and is considered an intellectual.
In the early days, he was still a hot-blooded young man, and he also had the great ambition of being loyal to the country, so he joined the anti-Japanese national united front in northeast China.
Fight the Japanese in a communist-led rank. He was also recruited into the organization because of his outstanding performance in battle, and solemnly swore an oath to the bright red party flag: I am loyal to the party, loyal to the country, and loyal to the people.
Cheng Bin recorded in Japanese army materials
Cheng Bin was carrying out anti-Japanese activities in his hometown of Panshi, and Yang Jingyu came to Jilin to form a guerrilla group, and the two officially met.
At that time, Yang Jingyu was the leader of the entire army, and Cheng Bin was just an ordinary creep. But Yang Jingyu was very impressed by this young and vigorous little comrade who fought bravely, after several observations
Thinking that he was a material that could be made, he personally promoted him,
Breaking the rules made him the leader of the Rock Guerrilla Squad, and he was taken with him in battles large and small, personally guided in battle, and trained him as his own apprentice. Because of Yang Jingyu's blue eyes, Cheng Bin grew up rapidly and soon had a place in the Northeast Army.
Later, Yang Jingyu expanded his troops under the instructions of the central authorities, merged the rock and the surrounding guerrillas, and formed the Independent Division of the First Army of the Northeast People's Revolutionary Army. Yang Jingyu became the top commander of the team, and once again promoted Cheng Bin, who he was optimistic about.
Cheng Bin became the small leader of the troops, responsible for managing Yang Jingyu's guard company.
The guard company is the closest unit to the commander of the unit and is fully responsible for the personal safety of the commander, that is to say, the group of soldiers led by Cheng Bin is responsible for protecting Yang Jingyu's safety. Therefore, the guard company at the beginning, including Cheng Bin, was an excellent soldier with strong hands, flexible mind and brilliant marksmanship, who not only had excellent physical fitness, but also were absolutely loyal and reliable in thought.
The Northeast Army fought
After another two years,
The northeast army led by Yang Jingyu was once again expanded in size, and Cheng Bin was also promoted to division commander.
However, he did not rely on Yang Jingyu's other eyes to treat him as "superior", but was unanimously elected by the officers and men of the army by virtue of his countless military achievements over the years. At this time, he was still just a soldier who was bent on serving the country.
At that time, Cheng Bin was very brave in battle, and Yang Jingyu drew thousands of people from the army to form a team
"Fire Brigade"
If something goes wrong, go quickly to the rescue. And Cheng Bin often led this unit to attack and fight, not only severely damaged the Japanese army and its secret agent lackeys, solved difficulties for the common people, but also opened up the anti-Japanese situation in the northeast region, relying on the advantages of mobility and flexibility and strengthening ties with other spontaneous anti-Japanese organizations.
Gradually, an anti-Japanese "big net" was formed in the rocky area, which made the enemy suffer a lot.
But because of this, the Japanese army decided to retaliate against Yang Jingyu. In 1935, the Japanese army began to implement a new plan, they analyzed Yang Jingyu's long-standing mode of operation, to find out the weaknesses of the Northeast Army:
The strength of the troops led by Yang Jingyu is actually not strong, because he has been playing guerrilla warfare to avoid his weaknesses, engaging in surprise attacks, and never attacking head-on, and the biggest weakness of such a unit is that it does not have sufficient support in the later stage.
The climate in the northeast was cold, and there was no current agricultural technology at that time, everyone was relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and the places with abundant resources were occupied early, and Yang Jingyu's Northeast Army was stationed in some relatively remote and barren mountain forests in order to hide, and usually bought or changed some grain, clothes and other materials from the people.
In order to cut off their supplies, the Japanese army began to "clear the wilderness", gathering the peasants and hunters around the rock, "gathering their families and tuns", and closely monitoring.
In peacetime, it is also necessary to buy, sell and transport things, and do not give the Northeast Army the opportunity to contact them.
Yang Jingyu's troops were besieged in the mountains,
Unable to get in touch with the outside world, he soon fell into a shortage of supplies.
But the Northeast Army did not shrink back, and without food, they hunted, dug up mushrooms and wild vegetables; without clothes, they surrounded them with animal furs and built a fire for warmth. But the most important thing is that there is no medicine, the previously injured warriors can only carry hard, good luck will survive, bad luck did not carry the sacrifice. In such a harsh environment, Yang Jingyu and his warriors
With amazing perseverance, he spent three more years circling the enemy.
The Japanese army saw that the efficiency of such a siege was too low, and planned to let Yang Jingyu's soldiers betray him, and those who were willing to surrender were all allowed to take the high-ranking official Houlu. At first, there was no effect, and the Japanese army came up with a fierce move.
The families of the soldiers were arrested, photographs were taken, a "letter of persuasion" was written, and the plane was taken to the garrison of Yang Jingyu's troops and sprinkled.
This method was cruel but effective, and many soldiers of the Anti-Coalition Forces began to float in their hearts, including Cheng Bin.
Yang Jingyu and the Northeast Army
Having been fighting against the enemy in the deep mountains and old forests, not enough to eat, clothe, and warmth, and not seeing relatives and friends outside, Cheng Bin gradually became a little dissatisfied, and he began to feel some fear of this kind of battle that could not see the light.
In June 1938, the Japanese Long Island secret service captured Cheng Bin's mother and brother.
Then he took the photos and washed them out, pasted them all over the rock-filled streets and alleys, and put the photos together with the letters of persuasion and threw them into the mountains and forests where Cheng Bin was hiding at the time. Seeing the photos of his relatives being taken away and even tortured by the Japanese army, the ripples in Cheng Bin's heart became even greater, gradually setting off a splash of water, which flooded his former vows and also let go
His desire to surrender to the Japanese was even more profound.
But Cheng Bin also knows that not everyone has this kind of thought, and many people still insist on their loyalty. So he privately contacted a few interested people, and pretended to summon a few generals to a meeting, at which he asked everyone to analyze the current situation and put forward his own ideas euphemistically: "At present, the situation is very unfavorable, many people's relatives have been taken away by the Japanese army, I don't know what we will experience, we are spending here is just waiting for death, it is better to vote for the time being..." Before the words were finished, two other generals stood up and rebuked him, saying that they should not say these sad words, and the revolution must fight to the end! With that, he turned and left. Cheng Bin knew that these two people would definitely not accept their surrender, and might even go to Yang Jingyu to file a complaint, so he immediately made up his mind and took out a weapon to shoot them from behind. After that, he asked the people he had contacted before to drive up a group of his soldiers to ask for advice, saying that it was an inquiry, but it was actually coercion.
Those who agreed to surrender with him stayed, and those who did not agree were killed on the spot.
Japanese Kwantung Army
In this way, Cheng Bin surrendered to the Japanese army with a team. According to Japanese records,
On the second day of his arrival at the Japanese camp, he explained the location of the main force led by Yang Jingyu hiding, and the location where they stored supplies and weapons.
In exchange for the peace of the family and the reuse of oneself.
Once Pandora's Box was opened, it was difficult, and the seed of the demon had long been planted and was now taking root. In order to make meritorious contributions, Cheng Bin, who completely lost his conscience, personally led the Japanese army up the mountain and destroyed all the northeast military camps he knew, and overnight, Yang Jingyu's anti-coalition troops suffered heavy losses and almost completely destroyed the army. Accused by his former comrades-in-arms,
Cheng Bin was unashamed to say that he was all for his family and for the safety of his comrades-in-arms.
But no one will be confused by him, maybe he does have some ideas to save his family, but what he does is more for his own interests, abandoning righteousness and disregarding righteousness, and exchanging the lives of soldiers in the Northeast Army for fame and fortune.
Yang Jingyu and the remaining soldiers desperately escaped, but Cheng Bin was trained by Yang Jingyu and was familiar with all his marching rules and combat methods, forcing them to be cornered. In early 1940, Yang Jingyu, who was rounded up by the Japanese army, fled to the Area of the Maojiang River, where only a few people were left and supplies were almost non-existent. Immediately, something worse happened, some people in his guard regiment could not hold back the rebellion, and Yang Jingyu's hiding place was once again exposed to the Japanese army. This time
Yang Jingyu chose to run in the opposite direction of the other soldiers, intending to use himself to lure the enemy away.
Sure enough, the Japanese army began to pursue him alone with all its might, sparing the other soldiers.
Yang Jingyu sacrificed
In this way, Yang Jingyu, who was fighting alone, began to flee alone, but how could one person escape the entire Japanese army?
On February 23, 1940, Yang Jingyu, who was seriously injured, could not run, and after a chaotic burst of gunfire, the hero slowly fell down and closed his eyes in the vast snow in the northeast.
After that, we have all heard about the deeds, the Japanese army cut open Yang Jingyu's stomach, wanting to see what supported this predatory soldier for so long, but only saw a few clumps of dry grass bark and cotton wool, without a single grain. The ruthless Japanese troops were shocked by the sight in front of them and felt heartfelt admiration for this opponent.
After killing Yang Jingyu, Cheng Bin really took root on the Side of the Japanese Army and did a lot of evil things one after another. After the Japanese surrendered, he joined the Kuomintang. After the Kuomintang was also defeated, he directly changed his appearance to Beiping, relied on his previous experience and achievements in the army, mixed into the PLA team, and became an official of the logistics department. But
Skynet was restored without leakage, so that the traitor with the human face and the beast's heart finally appeared after many years,
His crime was revealed to the world, and after the approval of the central government, he was immediately escorted to Rehe for execution!
epilogue
Yang Jingyu Martyrs Cemetery
Faced with the test of life and death, how will you choose? Some people have chosen to live, betrayed the oath made by the country and themselves; have chosen to die, defending the wind and bones of soldiers and the backbone of Chinese. Takaichiro Kishitani, a Japanese officer who fought against Yang Jingyu in the northeast, left a suicide note before his death, saying: "
Maybe it is pointless for us to start this war, and if China has soldiers like Yang Jingyu, we will not succeed.
”
The War of Resistance Against Japan will certainly be victorious, because Yang Jingyu is not a person, but a kind of person.
It is precisely because of these patriotic soldiers who have disregarded life and death and put the country and the people first that we can survive the long road full of blood and tears, finally drive out foreign enemies, realize national independence, and make the country rich and strong. With the advent of the new era, we still need to inherit this patriotic spirit, remember the mission of a strong country, and use our hearts and souls to protect the motherland and build the motherland!
